Chereads / How (NOT) Survive in Another World / Chapter 27 - Monster! (3)

Chapter 27 - Monster! (3)

...

After a few seconds of contemplation, I start reading the description of the other Skills again.

"Hmm, let me see, the next Skill is . Well, I think I already know what this Skill is for!

However, let's look at what she does anyway! Just to be sure!"

With that in mind, I focus on Skill, until a short description of it appears

[Acquisition Method: Skill acquired after the user has learned, how to position the body to decrease the damage received]

[Type: Passive] [Decrease damage taken by 20%] [Cooldown: None]

[Cost: 50 Stamina per second] [Activation Condition: Receive Damage]

(Note: If the user runs out of Stamina, the Skill will automatically disable)

"Yeah! It works exactly the way I imagined it! This is another Skill, which I gained when I was still in Hell!

I developed this Skill, when I was being forced to go through some pretty painful experiments!

At the time, I thought that if I didn't feel pain during the experiments, my life would be better. I was both right and wrong about it!

Yeah, the experiments became easier to bear. On the other hand, I started to lose myself! It is wrong to try not to feel, any pain!

After all, although I don't like it... I have to admit that the pain is one of the proofs that we are alive! Well, in the end, I learned that!

That is why, today when I feel pain, instead of trying not to feel it I choose to just ignore it! These two choices may seem the same.

However, I can guarantee for you... they are not! Anyway! Let's go to the next Skill!"

I quickly look at the screen, and when I see that the next Skill is Phantom Steps, I say

"Oh, Phantom Steps? I know when I learned this skill! It was in one of my thousands of attempts to escape Hell!

You know, I stayed confined in two different places! On the first place, I stayed for about four years and the second place I stayed until the year of my escape! To this day, I don't know why they had all this work, to move from one place to another!

Oops, I ended up distracting myself a little! Anyway! At that time, I realized that the guards were very disciplined and paid close attention to their surroundings! So, in order to escape from there, I learned to be stealthy!

That is... walking without making noise, being in people's blind spots so they don't see me, that kind of stuff!

All of this was so that those guards on patrol would not detect me! Sigh! However, even with all this care, all my escape attempts have failed! For although I managed to hide successfully from the guards, for some reason I was always caught!

Only years later, I discovered the reason for this. It was a reason, quite simple, and somewhat obvious!

What happens is that in the two places where I spent years being a guinea pig... there were hundreds of hidden cameras!

Because of that, no matter how stealthy I was, I was always going to be caught again.

After all, some of the hidden cameras always would end up filming me! Discovering that shook me a lot!

And that was the main reason that I gave up on becoming a ninja! Anyway! Let's see what this Skill does!"

(Level 9)

[Acquisition Method: Skill acquired the user has learned how to move without making any noise]

[Type: Active] [Allows the user's body to absorb Mana from the environment, so that the user becomes temporarily invisible]

[Cooldown: 300 Seconds] [Cost: 500 Stamina / 50 Stamina per second] [Activation Condition: Think or Say the Skill name]

(Note: The higher the skill level, the higher the chances of the user not being detected. If the user runs out of Stamina, the Skill will automatically disable)

"What the fuck? Elizabeth, my dear, I never managed to become invisible! Believe me, if I had... I would boast about it all the time!

So why the hell is this skill like this? Of course, I understand that to stay invisible. You know, in theory if my body neither reflects nor absorbs light... in theory, it would become invisible!

However, why the hell did I gain this skill? Are you telling me that my stealth is so high that it can even be compared to invisibility?

Come on, if I had been so good... I wouldn't have been caught on cameras when I was trying to escape Hell!

Sigh! You know what… fuck the logic behind getting that Skill! After all, this Skill seems to be very useful, so I won't complain!

Let's just see the other Skill!"

(Level 6)

[Acquisition Method: Skills acquired after the user has learned how to steal small objects]

[Type: Active] [Allows the user to steal small objects without being detected] [Cooldown: 60 Seconds]

[Cost: 200 Stamina] [Activation Condition: Think or Say the Skill name]

(Note: The higher the skill level, the higher the chances that it will work. The user will be detected if the difference between the user's Dexterity in relation to his target is very high)

"I learned this Skill, at the same time when I learned ! I learned this, with the intention of stealing the Access Keys, from the guards to escape!

However, in the end she ended up being very useful to steal the money from the suckers who kept me in that Hell!

Why did I do that? Well, I did this for two reasons! The first was because it was fun, see those suckers, desperate looking for their money!

The second reason, on the other hand, may seem a little ridiculous! I stole their money to spend! Yes, you didn't hear wrong!

It may seem like a lie, but I had several ways to spend that money, there in Hell!"

[Acquisition Method: Skill, acquired after the user, undergoes hellish training and completely masters hundreds of different martial arts]

[Type: Passive] [Allows the user to instinctively know what the best action to take during a fight is] [Cooldown: None]

[Cost: None] [Activation Condition: Start Fighting]

(Note: None)

"Well, I don't have much to say about this skill! After all, I already explained what the [Second trip to Hell] is!

So let's see the next one!"

[Inactive]

[Acquisition Method: Skills acquired after the user receives the blessing of the goddess Sakdal]

[Type: Active] [Increases the Health recovery rate by 10x] [Cooldown: 6.000 Seconds]

[Cost: 1000 Mana / 0.5 Mana per sec] [Activation Condition: Think or Say the Skill name]

(Note: If the user runs out of Mana, the skill will automatically disable)

"Interesting, so the gift I received from Sakdal was actually a blessing! Skill's description is similar to what she had told me!

Besides, I finally understand why it is inactive! It's because I don't have the mana to use this Skill!

Well, now that I've found out why, I have one less thing to worry about!"

[Inactive]

[Acquisition Method: ????????????????????]

[Type: Passive] [?????????????????????????????] [Cooldown: ???????]

[Cost: ??????????] [Activation Condition: ???????????????????]

(Note: ???????????????)

"Tsk! unfortunately, there are still options that are inactive! The most irritating thing, about it is not even the fact that it is inactive.

What irritates me is the fact that I don't know, what the hell is it for! Well, on second thought, this is a good thing in a way!

After all, if this Skill is something extremely overpower. I would be very frustrated for not being able to use it!"

[Acquisition Method: This is the solution found by , for the user compatibility problem]

[Type: Passive] [Allows the user to modify parts of his body to gain Abilities and Evolve] [Cooldown: None]

[Cost: None] [Activation Condition: Always Active]

(Note: None)

"Wow! That means that I can evolve? Man, this is fucking amazing! Okay, Elizabeth from now on, my name is... Icarumon!

Huehuehue! Well, jokes aside, I finally understand what Elizabeth meant. When she told me to become the strongest monster.

It was because of this Skill! Besides that, I think that all those question marks in my race is also because of this Skill!

However, differently than I imagined, I am not becoming a Divine Being, instead as the name of the skill itself says.

I'm becoming a Monster! Well, although it is not the same, this is cool in its own way!

Another thing that I can also notice by reading the description, is that the Skill is the responsible for the appearance of these two new options and in my status! I'm really excited to find out what they do!

However, I will control myself and I will follow the original plan! That is, see all the changes that have occurred in the status, in the order in which they appear in it!"

"Oh, those were the last two Skills I learned! How exactly are these two Skills going to be useful to me? Also, why are there question marks in the [Cost] and [Cooldown] items?

Well, shortly I intend to make a new Clothes and a new Weapon with Wolf's fur and bones… So it doesn't take long for me to put both of them into action! When that time comes, I'll focus on that again! Anyway!

Those were the last two Skills! That means I just need to see what the function does and then I can finally see the two new options!"

After saying this, I quickly focus my mind on the little + next to the item

The moment I do that, a short list with some names appears
