I wake up, I can't see anything, I try to open my eyes but I don't see any change.
"Where am I?"
[The inside of your egg]
What the f*ck, no one ever talks back when I talk to myself. And inside of an egg? My egg?
"Who are you?"
[The summarization system]
"Are you my system? And why would Morrigans face twitch when I got you? What makes you so special?"
[I am your system.
Knowledge is power.
I can give a summarized answer on your questions as long as they are within the rules]
"What rules? So everything is restricted, I didn't even get the cheat I want."
[The questions must be about yourself, things you own, owner less things that don't exceed your worth, or anything that's worth half your worth or less.]
"And how do you determine my worth?"
[The most important factors in determining your worth are your power and your soul.]
"Another thing about my soul, just great. How do you determine the value of my soul?"
[I can't tell you that.]
Okay, so there's even a limit about questions about myself. So I got a mediocre system, that talks like a person, and I'm stuck in an egg. That means I'm not a human, right? Maybe I can get a status?
"Can you give me a status?"
[I can give you your information in a shape like that.]
Nothing happens? Is he trying to annoy me by just saying he can?
"Well, do that than!" Annoying system.
In the darkness a gray screen appeared before me.

Passive:

Okay, that's quite clear. But let's ask some things.
"Why are all my stats 1?"
[1 is what a standard newborn has.]
That's pretty logical.
"Give a summary of all my skills."
[Fly: Use your wings to fly. 1sp/hour
Mosquito bite lvl: 1: Use your mouth to bite a creature to drink its blood, your bite is so sharp that most creatures can't even feel it. The drinking speed and sharpness of the bite depends on the skill level. 1sp
Blind spot detection: Shows you where the blind spots of the target are. 1sp/sec
Mosquito instincts: A gift for reincarnators, helps you move your body properly.
Detection dome: Your keen sense of smell, sight and hearing creates a dome that allows you to detect anything within. The skill level determines the size of the dome, and the clarity of your detection.
Heat sight: Shows an infrared image of temperatures, helps you locate blood vessels beneath the skin.
Blood absorption: Converse blood that you drink into your own power. This will help you level up. There's a small chance of gaining knowledge of the creature the blood belonged to.]
So… I'm a mosquito, even the skills are just like a normal mosquito. Even the blind spot detection, I always feel like they suddenly disappear, so now I understand why.
Okay, let's find a way to break out of my egg and start my adventure. I think I should just stretch.
And yes, I hear some tearing and I see light, I go up and forward and I escape.
I feel my blood flowing into my wings and they stretch behind me, they're a deep red and have black and white lines on them. Having wings and six legs doesn't feel weird, which surprises me.
I can't see my eyes, but my legs and body are a rather boring brown.
After I enjoyed my stretch I looked around me. I'm sitting on a leaf, and looking around it isn't a big leaf. Yeah, I really am a mosquito, I'm so tiny.
I can sense everything in a little over 5 meter in every direction, but it gets really fuzzy behind leafs and branches. But I can still see other bugs breathing in the 5 meter radius. It's a really weird sensation. Beyond the 5 meter I can see the general image of things, I think I can't see well beyond that cause compound eyes are only good at noticing movement, not so much at clear images.
But I think I can live with this, especially since I can see in every direction.
After looking around I don't notice anything special, just that everything is huge. It looks like I'm in a forest. There's a lot of plants and some bugs all around me, so I can only assume it's a forest. Not being able to see far isn't perfect after all. I can't enjoy a good view even if there was one.
I'm hungry, and I don't think I can drain blood from other bugs, so I'll need to fly.
I imagine myself flying away and my wings move just the way I want them to and I lift of my leaf.
"Bye bye leaf, I'll leave for the bigger world now, it's time for me to spread my wings figuratively and literally. Hehehe my parents would be proud of me."
I fly upwards, I love the feeling of being in the air. I think it's my fly skill or my mosquito instincts. I sense a smell of breathing close to me, I fly in that direction, I feel like it'll be my first meal. I'm more excited than I expected myself to be.
I needed to fly quite some distance, maybe my first victim is really big, or moving away from me. I did discover that I'm in a forest though, and the trees are huge. It takes me about 10 seconds to fly past a tree, and the tree is about 5 meters wide.. What means that I fly about 2km/h. That is rather slow, but I am a newborn mosquito, so I guess it's okay.
As I was thinking about my flying speed something furry enters my detection dome. I fly closer, and I discover what it is. I gasp, or I think I do.. I don't really have a face anymore.
It is a 4 meter long tiger. It's a lush green with dark brown stripes. It's taking a nap in the sun, this is my chance. I quickly fly towards its backside and land on his hind leg, I wiggle myself in between its hairs and finally find skin.
I'm so excited to drink this beautiful creature's blood that I put my stinger thingy right in. It are actually all different tools, there are 2 for cutting skin, and there are 2 to widen the hole and let my straw piece in.
