Chapitre 16: Chapter 16: New Skills

Things change as the unstoppable force called time slowly guides us to our inevitable fate. Before we know it, our destiny already or slowly changed its path. That's why we have to look behind and observe our own paths, knowing that we cannot go back and undo the efforts we already made.

Many years have passed since then, and I am already at my thirteen years of existence in this world. We—me and my sister—continued our training and development and did our monthly leveling in the Great Forest of Darkness.

Right now, we've already reached triple digits and are strong enough to fight B-ranked monsters or even weak A-ranked monsters. We improved our combat capabilities and increased the number of our skills, techniques, and spells.

"Grrrrr!"

"…"

I steeped back from my position by several meters as I evaded an enormous tail sweep. The tail didn't hit me, but it ravaged the trees within its range. The monster turned its massive and tough body after the attack and glared at me with ravenous eyes.

I am currently facing a monster inside the forest at the beginning of spring. With our strength, we can now dive deeper in the forest until we reach the area where B-ranked monsters lurk.

It is a Level 376 B-ranked monster called Tyrant Lizard. It's a brown-colored bipedal reptile with long hind legs and short arms. It had sharp claws and teeth, and its body was thirty feet long. No matter how and where I look, it greatly resembles the T-Rex back on Earth.

"Grrrraaa!"

The T-Rex charged at me with great speed despite having a massive and heavy body. It opened its big mouth as if to devour me whole. But this was not the first time I fought a Tyrant Lizard.

With my mithrill shortsword in my right hand, I raised my free left hand and opened my palm.

(Acid Bullet.)

"Giyaaaaa!"

I silently cast a Level 2 Acid Magic spell and aimed at the open mouth of the T-Rex. The lizard stopped its charge as it was agonizing in burning pain. I shoot five Acid Bullets for more damage output. I wanted to use it because it was a newly acquired skill.

Its short arms attempted to get rid of the acid, but it could not reach its burning mouth. Its skin is so tough that it cannot be scratched by an iron sword and is resistant to magic. But it doesn't mean to be the same on the inside.

"Graahhhh!"

The T-Rex charged at me, who was the cause of its agony, once again at a speed faster than before. Its movements were always straightforward and easy to predict.

(Dash.)

I cast a Martial Art and dashed towards the T-Rex at high velocity. It was so fast that it looked like I teleported if my target were in front of me. Holding my sword tightly, I leaped as I reached the right position.

"Dragon Slayer!"

The silvery blade of my sword formed a beautiful arc as I swung it through the T-Rex's neck. I used a Level 8 Sword technique that was specialized for slicing tough skin and scales.

I landed on the ground smoothly and swung at the empty space to get rid of the blood. I sheathed my sword back into its scabbard and turned my body to take a glimpse at the T-Rex.

The headless T-Rex staggered its body for a while before finally falling onto the ground. The crimson blood started pouring out of its severed neck.

(Glaciate.)

I immediately cast a Level 4 Water Magic spell to cover its neck with ice to stop the blood from spilling. Most of the parts of the Tyrant Lizard had a use and fetched a high price.

The meat were tender despite its high defense stat if processed properly. The hide were lightweight and durable that were usually used to craft light armor like what I am wearing right now. The blood of Tyrant Lizard was a high quality material and in high demand, especially for the vampires of Prussilvania.

Vampires in this world do indeed consume blood for survival. But it only applies to the low-ranking vampires. Superior vampires only consume blood for luxury.

Vampires consume not only human blood but also that of animals and monsters. That's why vampires can coexist with humans because they can drink blood other than humans'.

"Oh, I finally gained a Level after three T-Rexes."

There were no skills to plunder because Tyrant Lizards only use brute force and have a few skills. I don't want my T-Rex to spoil, so I opened my Inventory to preserve it. A pitch-black disk appeared under the corpse and swallowed it whole.

I slew many types of monsters and took one of their skills. And this is my stats and skill set right now.

That is my status right now. I am now at Level 284, and my stats have already reached an average of five thousand units. I plundered many skills from the defeated monsters using my Unique Skill Plunder.

My AGI stat had reached the seven thousand mark, and I already had seven extra minds and had increased the speed of my brain activity. I also unlock my Parallel Profile Unique Skill and can make up to two profiles.

My thought process is so fast that I can follow the trajectory of a moving arrow. Having eight minds made my life easier. I put a mind for each of my hands for me to have a better execution on the piano and violin.

I had my minds to have a designated task. Two for my hands, one for my entire body, and one for my memory checking. Two of my minds were out of my body right now.

Both of them were operating my two remote consciousnesses. One of them was traveling around the Great Forest of Darkness to gather information, while the other was orbiting around this planet like a satellite.

With my AGI stat, I can now play difficult piano pieces that require virtuoso hands, and I have already released my very first etude. I also published some music pieces like piano sonatas, waltzes, concertos, symphonies, etc. These were the compositions on my self-proclaimed list for the past four years.

＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿

I have many to publish, including the music for my sister's fifteenth birthday, which will also be her social debut ceremony. This event will happen in a few weeks, and the mansion is getting busy right now.

I acquired many skills and synthesized them using my Unique Skill: Synthesis. After combining compatible skills, I got new skills and even obtained two new Unique Skills!

I also did some training and practice Alchemy with my mom. Alchemy follows the law of equivalent exchange. You can basically create anything if you have the materials and enough Alchemy skill.

Speaking of my sister, our stats were not the only things that had changed in these recent years. I wiped the sweat off my forehead that was dripping.

I looked around my surroundings to make sure that no intelligent being watched me. For further coverage, I activated my new Unique Skill Omnidirectional Perception.

Omnidirectional Perception was a combination of Detection, Mist Radar, the combination of Mist Create and Detection, Heat Detection, the Skill that I got from the Mega Viper, and the Echolocation of the Cave Bat. It detects anything within its spherical range, even concealed ones.

The radius is proportional to the user's MP. Right now, I can cover a radius of up to seven kilometers. Confirming that there's one around, I cast a magic spell.

"Warp."

The greenish scenery instantly changed into a stony room before my eyes. The room is quite spacious, about ten meters wide on each side, and has a six-meter high ceiling. There's a single crystal-like bulb that shines so brightly that it illuminates the whole melancholic room.

The room was filled with door-like articles and circular podiums with engraved magic circles. I stepped out of the podium where I was just now.

I just used a Level 7 Spacetime Magic spell called Warp. It allows me to instantly teleport to my save point. It transfers me without any latency, no matter the displacement.

Inferior transportation spells like Short Teleportation, Long Teleportation, and Transfer takes time to activate, and you were widely open, so the enemy won't waste the opportunity to attack.

The podiums were four feet wide in diameter and elevated four inches from the stone floor. The first three inches were marble, while the surface was made out of an inch-thick mithrill.

There are four of these podiums in this room. Each had a unique scripture engraved on it. All of the podiums are our family's transfer points if we use the Warp Spell.

Only my mom has reached Level 7 of Spacetime Magic and can use Wrap among my family, aside from me. And that's the purpose of my new Unique Skill Bestow.

Using my Computer Brain, I made a 3D model of each scripture of the podiums. I used Alchemy to 3D print the mithrill into the scriptures with a font size of 10. Then I used orichalcum to encase the mithrill scripture and mold it into a golden plain bracelet.

I used my new Unique Skill Bestow to enchant the bracelet with the Warp spell. To make sure that they were the only ones who could use the bracelet, I also enchanted it with Mana Identification. During the molding, I mixed the bracelet with their hair to identify their mana. Mana Identification was a skill by combining Appraisal and Magic Sense.

I made it as plain as possible, so I applied it with Disguise, a combination of Appraisal and Concealment. It can hide your skills, titles, and blessings from an Appraisal user and manipulate your name, race, and Level as a disguise. I concealed the effects of each bracelet, and now it's just an ordinary orichalcum bracelet.

I originally made two bracelets for my mother and sister, but mom got green with envy, saying that I cared about them more than her. I don't want to make her unhappy, so I made two more bracelets for mom and me. I made myself one because I don't want them to think that I prioritize them over myself.

I walked out of the room and passed the dim stairway on the left. I stopped in front of a metallic door and opened it. The scenery in front of me was the first floor of the mansion.

I immediately went straight to the bathhouse as I realized how stinky I was.
