Victor read the system notifications and fir a much known reason, the angle from which he was reading it felt so weird and different, it was disorientating to say the least. Nothing was out of his expectations, except for the fact that he hadn't gotten any skill that increased resistance to fire and fire magic.
Of course, this fire-imp form of his had a high level of resistance to fire and fire magic, and because of that his weakness to fire was alleviated. But, when he changed back to his zombie form, this bonus would no longer be in effect. What Victor was looking for was something that would grant him this benefit even in his other form.
'Looks like my plan didn't work, but I got something out of this. It's all good.' Victor noted mentally. His new plan was to find another creature with natural affinity towards the element of fire. Maybe then he would be lucky enough to get the skill that would suit his goal.
In this form, the capabilities of his zombie form transferred into this new form. There were things that became different, like his physique and toughness of his body, to how his stats affected his performance. Apart from things like these, all his skills were still available, though something like 'spearmanship' was probably out of his control.
Victor gradually tried to move forward, but it just wasn't happening. After about one minute, some information flowed into him. It didn't feel like information or something abstract, instead it felt like a part of his mind that was closed had opened up to him, in his very soul and being.
When that happened, he tried to walk again, and without much of a hitch, his movements became as natural as a normal Imp. He still walked gradually and slowly, but he wasn't experiencing the same difficulty as prior to the sudden realisation. To say the least, the feeling was weird and at the same time familiar, all at the same time.
'Good thing I don't plan on staying in this form.' Victor thought.
Another thing about his new form was that his ability to speak was no more, and if he tried, all that came out were animal sounds that made no sense. In an instant, he had returned to his initial predicament when he first got to this world. Victor could not help but thank his luck as he only needed to wait for 24 hours.
Victor wanted to come out of the small space he was in, but the thought of facing other monsters kept him from doing that. If he were to meet a minotaur after he came out, although not realistic since he was in Fire-Imp territory, he would die instantly. If he met the humans, his fate would be the same. Victor couldn't just imagine combat in his current form.

Victor wanted to test the new skill he just got to see its strength. He was very well familiar with this skill as he was attacked with it quite a lot, and when faced by a group of fire-imps, it can be very annoying to deal with.
Victor walked to the opposite side of the small room space that face the entrance, and just like when he activated any other skill, he thought of it, or more accurately consciously commanded the skill to activate, and it did. He kept his mouth wide open creating way for the fire to come out of, and in that moment when he commanded the skill to activate, he felt a bit of energy swell in his chest, and the next instant fire came blasting out of his mouth.
Unlike what he knew, the fire wasn't as much as the one used against him by the fire-imps, relative to those, his was like a baby flame without control, as it had no definite direction and just blasted everywhere before him. Victor wasn't stupid, and immediately realised what he had done wrong. The thought of fire passing through his bare skin and mouth might have caused him to be too careful at first. There was no reason to hold back now.
Victor breathed in and out first, somehow readying himself for what was to happen, then he commanded the skill to activate. At the same time he activated the skill and the energy started swelling within his chest, Victor simultaneously took in a huge ball of air through his nostrils and mouth, and as he did it felt like the energy within him was amplified in a way. The moment he felt it was ok, through his mouth, he poured out the air and energy he had built up within his chest forward towards the entrance directly before him, some metres away. What he saw was just in simple terms amazing.
A blazing hot flame shot from his mouth as he continued to breathe out, until he had run out of breath. The flame he spat out was very strong, just like the one he was attack with, and it burnt through 3 metres of space separating him and the entrance, and may have even reached outside.
'This may come in handy later.' Victor said mentally as he observed the range of the skill.
