"Ohhh...I thought it was a Heroic rank skill but it\'s actually legendary."

The skills ranking went as follows from low to highest.

[Common]

[Rare]

[Heroic]

[Legendary]

[Godly]

Noah heard chatting down stairs and immediately knew it wasn\'t just his parents available that evening.

"Other people...?"

"Atleast I get to see other individuals that aren\'t NPCs."

Noah went out his room through the short hallway.

He reached the stairs and paused.

At the bottom he saw a woman who looked no more older than 27.

She had brown hair, blue eyes and a curvaceous body. Despite her age she looked stunning.

Beside the woman was a girl.

"She looks my age..."

Noah thought.

The girl had similar features as her mother just smaller befitting her age.

And instead of blue eyes she had purple eyes and black hair with a mix of a darker purple.

"Okay Mrs Ashbourne, I\'ll see you tomorrow at work..."

The woman said as she bowed a bit and left with the girl Noah assumed was her daughter.

"It\'s a shame such talent might go to waste..."

Amon began taking a seat.

"I feel bad for Elizabeth, her daughter has been incredibly gifted..."

Margaret added on.

"I know, I\'ve trained her since we follow the same Constellation," Amon stated shaking his head gently.

"I\'ll go upstairs and brainstorm on ways to help them...its the best we can do for Elizabeth."

Margaret said heading up the stairs where she bumped into Noah.

"Oh sweetie...is there something you wanted?"

"Mum, who were you talking to just now?"

Noah asked.

"You don\'t remember Elizabeth and her daughter?"

"Maya?"

\'Shit...it\'s that moment where I can\'t be able to recall anything because of the messed up memories...\'

Noah panicked inwardly.

"Ohhh...her..."

Noah stammered smiling nervously.

"Yeah, apparently she won\'t be able to get into Ravenwood Academy since her mother isn\'t able to come up with the funds..."

"Your father and I were brainstorming on possible ways to help the Brenthalls...you know since Elizabeth is a single mother."

\'Hmmm...\'

Noah didn\'t say anything.

"Anyways, I\'ll head into my room...see you in the morning.

Goodnight sweetie."

"Goodnight mum."

Noah\'s gaze caught his father trying to zip his pants.

"Ow..."

Amon called out in a hushed tone.

But Noah knew what caused the wincing pain.

---

In his room Noah paced all over thinking about the problem he now had.

"My lack of this body\'s original memories will cost me at some point..."

"On top of that...that girl...Maya..."

The Reset Ticket materialized on his arm.

"I have no choice but to use it...I\'ll be able to gain memories of the original Noah.

Even though the chances are low, it\'s worth taking the risk."

"On top of that, I think I might have a way to help Elizabeth and her daughter..."

***

Elizabeth and his daughter were sitted in their house.

Maya brought a cup of tea for her mother as she stroded back to the kitchen.

Suddenly there was a knock on the door.

"Don\'t worry Maya, I\'ll go check who it is," Elizabeth said heading towards the door after placing the cup of tea on the table.

She opened the door where a figure almost as tall as her stood.

Black hair, yellow eyes and black lashes that leaned more on feminine than masculine.

"Who is it mum?"

Maya called out.

Seeing her mother didn\'t respond she proceeded to the door.

"Oh...Noah," Maya muttered startled by the sudden visit.

"Can I come in?"

Noah asked.

He was wearing a long black coat, black pants and boots.

"Of course you e in," Elizabeth responded.

Noah took a seat after looking around the home, it wasn\'t that lavish or below average.

Maya took a seat beside her mother.

"What brings you here young Ashbourne?"

Maya\'s mother asked.

"My mom told me you were struggling with funds and Maya not being able to get into Ravenwood Academy...

I think I have a way that can benefit you..."

Noah said.

\'This actually benefits me as well...\'

Noah thought as his eyes glowed a bit yellow and then dissipating.

***

The next morning Noah was at his mother\'s business helping out around.

It was a flower like alchemy shop that sold different magical plants and herbs.

[■Class: Divine Healer]

"That\'s my mother\'s class...I was able to look into her status window while testing it out..."

His mind then recalled the night before where he used the Reset Ticket.

Noah had ripped it and feeling like a battle between his souls and different conscious he thought he would loose all memories including all the experience he had gained with the game.

But to his surprise he had gone against all odds and bypassed that [1.04%] chance.

He not only retained his past life memories but also the original Noah\'s memories.

"Elizabeth and Maya Brenthall...She works in my mum\'s shop and Maya comes to help often at times if she isn\'t taking care of things at home..."

"Elizabeth used to work as the Ashbourne\'s maid before she became she became pregnant with Maya..."

"Even so, she has been a great role in thia family."

"I was able to initiate a deal yesterday and today..."

Before he could finish, Elizabeth and Maya walked in as they greeted Margaret and Noah.

"Uhhh...Margaret can I talk to you?"

Elizabeth said as they both went back a bit.

Noah and Maya were left there together.

\'Ugh...this is so awkward...I\'ve never talked to women in my life...\'

Noah thought inwardly.

\'How does one start a conversation?\'

Noah was to do so but he soon realised something.

\'This girl...is she afraid of me?\'

\'Even back at their house she looked exactly as she is now...\'

Was there something he wasn\'t getting about the original Noah?

\'I gained the memories so what\'s the issue?\'

That was when it hit Noah.

After he had used the Reset Ticket the system went into another reboot and then displayed his stats again.

\'Right after gaining the original Noah\'s memories...\'

\'I gained [Character Traits]...\'

\'Severe Sovereignty, it makes people afraid of me no matter the situation...\'

\'That must be why Maya is like this...\'

Just when Noah was thinking through all this Elizabeth and his mother returned.

"Noah, honey are you sure about the proposal you made?"

\'She\'s talking about the deal I offered to the Brenthalls...\'

"Yes, I think its a great idea.

If Maya enters into the academy in a sense that she\'s my personal assistant she\'ll pay 50% less the money.

On top of that the academy allows Noble families to bring other personnels such as a body guard, knight, maid and such.

If you think about it...Maya can be under my name while getting to study with me in the Academy."

Noah concluded.

Elizabeth and Margaret looked at Noah for a while.

\'What?...too genius for a 16 year old?\'

Noah thought feeling nervous.

"That\'s genius!

Ooooohh, wait till your father hears about it..."

"Okay it\'s decided, Maya will you attend the academy under the impression your Noah\'s assistant?"

Margaret asked Maya.

"Ummm...yeah it\'s a good idea, I do get to attend the academy like I wanted.

So I appreciate it..."

Maya said her gaze avoiding Noah\'s.

"Perfect...it\'s decided then..."

Margaret shot up as she pulled Elizabeth into the next room.

"I\'ll help you with the Academy uniform and other necessities..."

Yet again Noah and Maya were left together at the counter.

\'Sigh...it may seem disgusting, but I\'ll need to take advantage of every situation within my grasp...even if it means using her...\'

\'I didn\'t realise at first, but this girl...

She\'s the girl that white-haired bastard uses, lies and even goes ahead to humiliate her in the First Act...\'

\'Unlike him...I tend to use Maya for other reasons...while being nice to her...\'

\'First I need to gain her trust and loyalty...\'
