'Stat Creation is obvious here, but between Judgement of Apocalypse and Malicious Raiment...'
As he was deep in thought, Atlas pulled out his phone and googled what 'raiment' meant.
'Ah so its probably a defensive skill. So I can choose between an offensive skill and a defensive skill', he assumed, thinking that Judgement of Apocalypse was very obviously an offensive skill.

'Defense is the best offense right? or was it the other way around?'
Curious as to the actual effects of the skill he chose, he opened his status window and selected Malicious Raiment from his list of skills.
[ Skill: Malicious Raiment LVL. 1 ]
[ Effects: The user dons a cloak of tangible malice upon activation. Negates all damage except Light-Attribute Damage. Increases the user's stats by increments of 5% based on the negative emotion in the atmosphere surrounding the user. Increases all ground Movement Speed by 10%. ]
'So this seems to be a boss-type or AoE-type skill, since negative emotion towards me will max against one very angry or many slightly angry motherfuckers. It negates all damage, so does that mean I could have eaten the Golden Apple if I had this?'
Looking at the stat increase option, he decided he had made the right choice, since this skill seems to be the best defensive skill ever- offering blanket immunity to almost all attacks- as well the best offensive skill ever- as his stats were low now so even a small increase would probably have noticeable effects.
Suddenly thinking of a great idea that just popped into his head, Atlas decided to test if there were more bugs to this System than he had already found. Checking to make sure he had full HP before doing this, he quickly ascertained the direction to his house and face that way- bracing his ankles for the familiar floating sensation to come.
"Activate Sky Walk and activate Malicious Raiment" he said, finally the feeling of embarrassment he initially felt when shouting skill names in public.
The familiar feeling of his feet leaving the ground was quickly subverted by the heavy and cold cloak that simply materialized around his. Breaking into a sprint, he began to run slightly upwards, beginning to feel too much of a forward force than he had actually exerted. Taking some long strides, he jumped forward off the invisible air platform almost parallelly to the ground, and unconsciously flailed his arms- making him look like a baby pigeon that was pushed out its nest by its mother. Once he jumped, he saw the ground below him blur and heard the wind begin to echo through his still sensitive ear drums due to the extreme speed he was now-very unsafely- travelling at. Once his altitude had decreased by enough, he canceled the Sky Walk skill, which unfortunately did not cancel his forward momentum- resulting in him faceplanting straight through a grocery store and shattering close to 5 windows that he had blasted by.

'They should hire me to be a bug tester with all this shit I'm doing.'
Hearing the notification only after struggling to stand up, he clicked it, only to have it covered with another notification.

'Wait, this sounds way to cool to be a skill I accidentally came up with.'
