In fact, the upper limit of the so-called "Leon's Underwear Theft Art" was far from low. At the Demigod level, it could even extend to concepts, stealing the "protection" or "appearance" around something concealed and exposing the secret underneath.
But no matter how high its upper limit was, that couldn't hide how shameless it was at its lower end...
When Leon tried to teach me this art, I refused him on principle. I never thought I'd end up learning it from a Beyonder Characteristic... I absolutely can't use it in front of anyone. If they saw me, they'd think I'd said one thing to his face while secretly learning such a shameless Secret Art behind his back...
Wait. I remember that lion saying the Mysticism Mentor's Acting Code was "collect Secret Arts, create Secret Arts, teach Secret Arts, and ultimately make Secret Arts no longer secret"... But how am I supposed to teach an art like this? If everyone learned it, wouldn't people start watching their backs?
I'd better improve it before passing it on...
As he mulled this over, Abner turned his attention to the other two Secret Arts he had gained from the characteristic.
One also came from Lion Leon: the Polymath Reconnaissance Art he had developed. It could locate any Polymath within ten kilometers... if one was there.
The Secret Art had a narrow range of uses and a limited upper ceiling, but at least it was a respectable Secret Art. Abner couldn't ask for much more.
The final Secret Art he had gained from the characteristic came from the imprint left in the Brilliant Five-Colored Stone. It could raise a Barrier imbued with a trace of Twilight's power, warding off Nightmares and Mind Plague. It was an effective defense against attacks by Beyonders with dream-related abilities.
