-"Oh you bastard, how dare you do that!"
-"(Hii... melia?")"(Takeshi)
-"take this, and this, and this" (Hiimelia)
-"(is she playing?)"(Takeshi)
-"Haha another crushing victory"(Hiimelia)
I was curious so I just took a quick look. She was playing a fighting game I was good at when I was younger.
-"Shoryuken!" (Hiimelia)
-"Shoryuken!"
I was still in bed, not wanting to interfere with her fun. I started to get sleepy and fell asleep
-"(my body is heavy)"(Takeshi)
It was like something was on top of me. I opened my eyes slowly and Hiimelia was on top of me, sleeping
-"Hii-Hiimelia!? Why are you- ahhh!"(Takeshi)
In despair I fell out of bed, making Hiimelia wake up
-"hmm... Hello Takeshi"(Hiimelia)
-"why were you by my side?"(Takeshi)
-"I don't remember, why will it be?" (Hiimelia)
-"don't do this anymore please"(Takeshi)
-"all right, all right. Ah! I remembered, how's the curse going?" (Hiimelia)
-"you talk about this mark on my hand?"(Takeshi)
-"oh that's amazing, you're already halfway through the process. Tell me, what did you kill to get so much blood?" (Hiimelia)
-"Lots and lots of Orcs, even a prince of them. I think his name was Luk'har" (Takeshi)
-"Luk'har!? The son of Urk'har, did you manage to defeat this guy!?" (Hiimelia)
-"ye-yes, was he someone powerful?"(Takeshi)
-"he was one of the sons of the most dangerous Orc for all life on this planet. How did you defeat him!?" (Hiimelia)
-"close, close, you're very close!"(Takeshi)
-"Oh I'm sorry" (Hiimelia)
-"let's sit down, this conversation will take a while" (Takeshi)
I've only explained the important parts to Hiimelia about the dungeon and Prince Luk'har that we found. She kept looking at me like she was obsessed with something in all of history
-"and then we leave the dungeon if nothing of value besides the stones of Orc"(Takeshi)
-"Luk'har's Stone, do you have it?" (Hiimelia)
-"no, I gave her to Nakamura"(Takeshi)
-"I understand"(Himelia)
-"does this stone have any value for you?"(Takeshi)
-"not much. I was really curious about this stone"Hiimelia)
My limit exceeded again, and slowly started to fade.
-"See you later, I hope to see you next time" (Hiimelia)
-"See you later"(Takeshi)
takeshi woke up in his bed
-"activate Skill ≪Dimensional Backpack≫"(Takeshi)
Today Takeshi would do another mission with Nakamura's party. But if they had to cancel for some reason, Takeshi would go on a quest alone
He still needed to train his magic Abilities, they could be strong but they would be useless if you kept using the same Ability all the time.
-"I'm ready. I hope a big help from this chain mail"(Takeshi)
When I put my hand on the doorknob I heard a voice in my head

-"a lot has changed in the Status... where do I use the available points?" (Takeshi)
A lot of things have changed in my Status, this even includes its format and some Abilities.
-"Skill Points?"(Takeshi)
Gradually I started to believe that I got into an RPG game instead of being transported to another world
-"What if I- woah!"(Takeshi)
I tried clicking on 'Available points' and another screen appeared in front of me.
[Want to use your Skill points now?]
And underneath that were two answers, Yes // No. I clicked Yes and another screen appeared
-[you currently have 3 Skill points available, use as you wish]
3 cards appeared in front of me. The left and right card gave off a dark aura while the middle one had a red aura. I assumed that the cards that gave off a dark aura would be of the Dark element while the red aura card would be the fire element.
-"F-First let's see the left card" (Takeshi)
I tapped the left card and some information came up.
Shadow Shield|
Skill Level: Rare
Skill Category: defense
Skill Element: Darkness
Required mana: 25
Duration: 1 minute
Difficulty: 2 stars
Required Points: 3
You create a small dark aura around you, which gives you protection from the next attack you take, lasts 1 minute. Magic weapons nullify this Ability
-"a lifeguard so to speak, maybe that's a good choice. But first I'll look at the other cards" (Takeshi)
I clicked on the fire letter
Fire Sword|
Skill Level: Super Rare
Skill Category: Attack
Skill Element: Fire
Required mana: 30
Duration: 2 minutes
Difficulty: 3 stars
Required Points: 3
You manipulate fire to create swords that lunge at enemies, dealing massive damage and burning them depending on the area they were hit.
-"if I'm not mistaken this was a Fire Ability that Shizuko had" (Takeshi)
Having more fire casters would be good for the team, but depending on the situation it would be useless, an example would be an underwater fight.
I clicked on the last missing letter
Shadow Exchange|
Skill Level: Super Rare
Skill Category: support
Skill Element: Darkness
Required mana: 25
Duration: instant
Difficulty: 2 stars
Required Points: 3
with the ≪Dark Clone≫ Skill activated you can swap places with the "dark clones", and you can also swap techniques and objects with them, with the intention of setting traps, or moving faster
-"let's see, taking the |Fire Sword| out of choice as it might be useless at certain times. I suppose the best choice would be Dark Shift, being able to switch places with a clone would be a good idea" (Takeshi)
Shadowshield did not guarantee that you would survive a fatal attack, and on top of that this Ability would be nullified if the attack you took was from a magic weapon. On the other hand, Dark Shift could be done anytime with a Dark Clone
I double-clicked on the |Shadow Swap| and a message appeared
¤ [Exchange Complete, Updating Status]
And then the points screen closed and I went back to my Status

-"Done, I'll come back later to see the other Abilities"(Takeshi)
I left home and started going to the guild
-"haah! Meat is always delicious"(Takeshi)
I joined the guild and didn't see Nakamura and the others so I decided to ask the receptionist
-"Excuse me..."(Takeshi)
-"Oh hello Takeshi, what do you want?"
-"I wanted to know if you saw Nakamura and the others, I don't know if I arrived sooner or later" (Takeshi)
-"Nakamura... Ah! unfortunately they already booked a Quest and left"
-"I understand"(Takeshi)
-"you can do a solo mission if you want, the Quests board is right there"
-"okay"(Takeshi)
I went to the mission board and started looking for one that gave me a lot of blood.
-"let's see"(Takeshi)
I started looking at the missions on the board, there were many Rank 5 and few Rank 7 missions. As I was Rank 6 I wouldn't have a problem if I took some Rank 5
-"enter the dungeon elenoir and reach the 6th floor and get the moon flower... Looks good"(Takeshi)
I took the mission from the board and handed it to the receptionist
-"are you going to do this mission?"
-"yes, I need to train my Skills and I think a dungeon is very good for that" (Takeshi)
-"Alright then, good luck on your journey"
-"let Nakamura know I'm going on a quest" (Takeshi)
-"Sure"
After my quest was booked I left town towards dungeon elenoir
-"I'll enjoy that I'm still far away and I'll see the other Abilities I have" (Takeshi)
- "Open Status"(Takeshi)
An information screen appeared in front of me.
-"Let's see the Passive Skills"(Takeshi)
I clicked on night vision and an information tab came down. The other Abilities will also show the information.

-"How strange, all the other Abilities have some information, but this one doesn't"(Takeshi)
-"Close Status"(Takeshi)
Status was closed and I continued to walk
Kuroshi4: I don't know how to transition in character yet so it's going to stay that way until I find out.
-"another mission completed, good work guys"(Nakamura)
-"yay"(Tsunade)
-"after facing a lot of goblins I just want to relax" (Yuriko)
-"we were lucky not to have any Goblin mages. But there was a Goblin General" (Emi)
-"even without Takeshi we still managed to defeat this General" (Nakamura)
-"Atchim. Is there a field of flowers nearby?"(Takeshi)
-"Too bad he didn't show up" (Tsunade)
-"oh, do you want to go eat something?" (Yuriko)
-"of course, why not?"(Nakamura)
-"so it's decided, there's a place that has recently opened and I want to check it out with you" (Yuriko)
-"the Dungeon is around here... Found it"(Takeshi)
A small cave with a flower symbol carved into the wall. I didn't know if someone made this symbol or the dungeons were made like this
-"Moon flower... Dungeon with flower symbol... Clearly there's a boss here" (Takeshi)
Even so I entered the Dungeon, a curse would not be broken if I stood still
When I entered the Dungeon a voice echoed through my head
[Passive skill ≪Night Vision≫ has been activated]
-"Night vision?"(Takeshi)
The room wasn't that dark but the Skill was activated anyway. And in front of me was a little green creature with pointy ears.
-"is this a Goblin?"(Takeshi)
When the Goblin looked at me a voice echoed in my head
[Passive skill ≪Terrorize≫ has been activated]
-"Tic Tic Tic!"
When the Goblin saw me he ran from me, dropping a small monster rock
-"Am I stronger than a Goblin? At level 3?"(Takeshi)
Typically in games, goblins have at least a level of 5-20 the weakest they are Slimes, which go down to 1-15. If a Goblin ran from me out of fear even though I'm level 3...
-"Who will be the highest level person so far?" (Takeshi)
I left that question aside and continued to go deeper into the dungeon.
-"Tic Tic Tic!"
"Won't run away from me" (Takeshi)
-"glaaah"
-"thanks for the Goblin Stone"(Takeshi)
-"Activate Ability ≪Clone of Darkness≫"(Takeshi)
[-25 525/550 Mana]
A help would be very useful as these Goblins don't stop running due to my Ability
-"Don't let any Goblin get away, kill them all and pick up the stones they drop" (Takeshi)
The clone just nodded.
-"Great, let's continue"(Takeshi)
Clone and I went deeper into the dungeon, killing all the Goblins that came our way. Until we found the stairs to the 2nd floor
-"Disable Skill ≪Dimensional Backpack≫"(Takeshi)
-"I've already saved the Goblin stones, let's go down" (Takeshi)
The dark clone and I went down to the next floor, I was curious if there were other types of monsters besides Goblins in this dungeon. Arriving at the 2nd floor, the scenery had changed and a strong fog covered the entire place, making it difficult for me to see what was a little far from me.
-"Activate Skill ≪Dimensional Backpack≫"(Takeshi)
I took a Corrupted Orc Stone to test the Skill I had gained when I picked up my first Quest.
-"Activate Skill ≪Summon Undead≫"(Takeshi)
[-45 480/550 Mana]
Just holding the corrupted stone caused a great dark aura to come out of the stone. And little by little it was creating an Orc. But unlike all I've seen, this one was decomposing, the inside of his body was visible
-"that's scared..."(Takeshi)
The Skeleton Orc Looked Down
-"(is he sad?!)"(Takeshi)
A skeleton Orc who had already died was sad to be called a monster by the one who killed him and summoned him
-"It was a joke, it was a joke and I was... Admiring how scary you were, it was a compliment I swear" (Takeshi)
the orc looked at me again
-"I brought you back to life, never that I would call you a monster. You're kind of cute" (Takeshi)
The Skeleton Orc started to smile. It was extremely scary
-"let's continue our exploration, help my clone in the battles alright?"(Takeshi)
The Orc skeleton nodded and we continued walking. And eventually we found 3 Goblins walking
-"it's time to train a little, work together and defeat the Goblins" (Takeshi)
When I said that the skeleton Orc and the clone of darkness advanced towards the Goblins. The Orc Skeleton ran into a Goblin and grabbed it by the head, while the Dark Clone advanced on top of the other Goblins
-"Tic Tic Tic!" x2
The two Goblins started to run while the Orc skeleton crushed the head of the other Goblin that had been caught.
-"Glaaah!"
CRACK
That was all I had heard before the Orc skeleton brought me a Goblin Stone
-"Oh thank you very much"(Takeshi)
-"Gleeh!"
-"gluuhh!"
Amidst the fog that was in front of me, I just heard two monsters being killed. And after a few seconds my clone of darkness returned with two stones of Goblins. I stored them in my Dimensional Backpack and we continued walking again
-"It's true, you don't have a weapon to fight right?"(Takeshi)
The Orcs I had seen had some kind of weapon. The club was one of the ones I had seen so far
-"let's hope to find a weapon you like" (Takeshi)
The Orc Skeleton started to smile again
-"(I hope I get used to it. Because he's so scared when he makes that face)" (Takeshi)
We continued until we found a small army of Goblins who were taking care of the stairs leading to the 3rd floor.
-"2 Goblins different from all the rest. ≪Analyze≫"(Takeshi)
Goblin Mage|
A small monster capable of using fire magic. Doesn't have a lot of Mana so just use one type of attack
Skills:
'Fireball'
Level 3
General Goblin|
A small monster that can lead an entire army on its own. Can undo debuffs and guarantee buffs to your team
Skills:
'thirst for revenge'
'leader'

-"they haven't noticed us until now, let's attack. Skeleton Orc you advance towards those in front"(Takeshi)
-"Clone of Darkness, first advance on the Goblin mage. I will go to the General Goblin"(Takeshi)
-"Activate Skill ≪Speed of Darkness≫"(Takeshi)
[-30 450/550 Mana]
-"let's go"(Takeshi)
I advanced on the front towards General Goblin
-"Tic Tic!"
Another Goblin saw us and alerted his team
-"Tic Tic Tic!"
-"Tic!"
-"Tic Tic!"
I managed to get right in front of General Goblin
-"haa!"(Takeshi)
General Goblin managed to defend my attack. While the Orc Skeleton was fighting all the weaker Goblins
[Passive skill 'Savior' has been activated]
-"Tic Tic Tic!"
[Passive skill ≪Language comprehension≫ has been activated]
Little by little I began to understand what General Goblin was saying
-"Tic Tic-Your fire skill"
-"understood, Fireball-"
Before he could cast any kind of magic. The wizard Goblin was killed by the clone of darkness, who arrived without anyone noticing
-"damn it!"
The general seemed to have grown stronger with the death of almost all the Goblins, probably his 'bloodthirst' ability had been activated.
-"hyaa!"(Takeshi)
If this duel continued I would expend more mana than necessary so I made the goblin general back down
-"≪Shadow Prison≫"(Takeshi)
[-35 415/550 Mana]
-"what?!"
Tentacles erupted from the ground, trapping General Goblin and making him helpless.
-"haaa!"(Takeshi)
-"wait-"
I quickly stepped forward and stuck my Katana in his head.
-"Tic Tic!"
-"yaahh!"
The skeleton 0rc and the clone of darkness were killing the rest of the remaining Goblins
-"a corrupted stone, ≪identify≫"(Takeshi)
General Goblin Corrupted Stone|
The stone that contains the soul of a Goblin can be used to bring a dead person back to life that is permanently loyal to the summoner. This stone has no sales value.
Skills:
'thirst for revenge'
'leader'
Level: 5
Item rarity: Rare
-"will be very useful"(Takeshi)
Commanding an army of Goblins would be really cool, but it would have to have at least 10 of these corrupted stones and a lot of mana to be able to do that.
-"Ah! it's true, the fight"(Takeshi)
The Orc Skeleton and the Dark Clone had already finished off all the goblins and were just waiting for orders
-"good job you two, now let's get the rocks and go down to the next floor"(Takeshi)
End of chapter 16
