The moment she asked that, the Jansens knew she was about to drop some serious knowledge.
Tate spoke up immediately. “Please, Miss Josie, tell us!”
Undead Cores definitely boost your superpowers. And they do it fast. They can make someone level up in a matter of
months–maybe even days.”
“But there’s a catch. The energy inside those cores is filthy. Besides the power you want, they’re packed with toxins that rot your mind and make you go feral.”
You can’t flush that crap out of your system. Once you cross the line, you’ll snap. You’ll lose control, lose your mind, and end up as
a half–undead freak.”
“So, if you don’t want to end up as monsters, stop using those cores to level up.”
The best way to get stronger is still through real combat.”
‘I’m not telling you this because I’m some kind of saint,” she added.
I’m telling you because I’m opening up my shop. I’ll be taking Undead Cores as currency for my supplies.”
‘Instead of risking your mind to level up, trade them to me for gear. It’s a much better deal.”
‘Seriously, I have so much stuff and so few people, we couldn’t burn through it all if we tried.”
Josie was being a total brat, rubbing her wealth in their faces.
But since no one could actually take her in a fight, they just had to suck it up.
‘I’ll draft up an exchange list later. Post the rates around the base. If anyone wants to trade, they can come find me.” Josie stood up.
That’s it. I’m done here.”
I need to get home and winterize my place. The Deep Freeze is coming, and I’m not planning to freeze my ass off.”
‘Oh, and one more thing! When your Terrestrial Supers have some downtime, get them to fix the road.”
‘Smooth out the path between our places. We’re going to be doing a lot of business from now on.”
With that, Josie waved them off and walked out.
The second she was gone, Tate turned to his father. “Dad, you think we can actually trust her?”
Albert’s brow furrowed deep. “Better safe than sorry. Tate, stop absorbing those Undead Cores for now. Let’s wait and see how the
others react first.”
If Josie’s telling the truth, we still have time to fix this.”
But if she’s playing us? I’ll make sure she pays for it.”
Tate nodded ‘Got it, Dad.”
Yeah, Tate had awakened an ability, too.
While Jose’s crew was busy clearing out the undead and opening the route to Xavier City, Tate had finally made his move. He’d used the Power Rain to trigger his awakening
His luck It was mid
He didn’t turn into a monster, and he did get a power, but his potential and rank were total garbage
He was a Rain user the most common, basic–ass ability out there. It was basically a glorified sprinkler system for farmers. At this stage, he was a joke

Forget killing the undead; he couldn’t even win a real fight with it.

What was he supposed to do? Summon a tiny cloud and give the enemy a light drizzle while they were trying to kill him?
