Chereads / The Legend Of The Four / Chapter 12 - Snake's Vision

Chapter 12 - Snake's Vision

[Day 1- Aryan Varma]

Huge trees with thick swirling trunks and branches with leaves that covered the sky preventing sunlight to reach the ground layed in front of me, there were particles of light flowing near the ground, they shined in different colors.

The scene in front of me was truly taken out of a fantasy book and it was breathtaking, I didn't had any problem seeing even with the thick vegetation because it still allowed little bit of sunlight which was enough to see in and those light particles helped a lot.

"I'm in a real fantasy land!"

It was still a little bit difficult to believe that I died and reincarnated in this magical world even after looking at the scen in front of me which couldn't exist in the world where I came from.

I was currently laying on the ground, so I tired to move my body and weirdly my body instead of getting up, it slithered and that's when I felt it.

My body was like a rope and I remembered the two figure telling us that we'll be reincarnating as monsters.

When they said monsters, I thought of beigns with red skin and hugged horns and that sort of thing, I thought it would be cool but I did not sign up for this

"You could've at least given me some fricking legs!"

"I would've been fine with even four legs!"

"I want my money back!"

If I remember correctly they also said about us being able to evolve into humanoid forms, so that implied we would not be human like.

"I should've paid more attention to them!"

Then a sudden realization of what I was hit me, the rope-like body, the way I slithered, it all adds up now.

"Am I a worm?"

"Why a worm?"

"You guys could've reincarnated me as thousand of other things and you chose a worm?"

I shouted at the sky, hoping that those two shady figures could hear .

Suddenly a memory from my childhood resurfaced where I squished a worm in the park while playing with my grandpa.

"Is this karma?"

Then is started to think about why I chose to do this and thought

"Is revenge from Crenus-Crenos or whatever his name was really worth all this trouble?"

"Well, it's not like I can do anything about it, can I?"

I asked looking up in the sky and still there was no answer.

"Thought so"

I remember those two figure telling us to say 'status' when we reach here, so I shouted at top of my lung.

I don't exactly have a proper lung to begin with or even a vocal cord to talk, so it was more like a mental shout.

So I shouted mentally at the top of my imaginary lung, hoping that this would give me some good news.

"STATUS!!"

Then suddenly out of nowhere a pale blue holographic screen appeared out of nowhere in front of me.

◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇

I don't know what to say about my status as I've not seen anyone else's status, I don't even know if that is possible, so I can't tell if its good or bad, but I can say one thing.

"I'm not a worm!!!!Woo-hoo!!"

I'm a snake and a purple one at that according to my species, and that seems cool atleast its better than beign a worm

"Pheww"

In the future I will be like, I remember..

"That time I got reincarnated as a snake, in another world!"

There were still some questions I had regarding to my status, but the out of nowhere a screen appear in front of me.

[Using the skill [Unique Skill: Inspect] ]

[Grade:

This is used to determine the danger level of a monster. A monster's rank may increase after evolving.

The grades in ascending order are:-

D

C

B

A

S

SS

SSS ]

So I'm like at the second bottom of the food chain, that's mean there's a long way to go for me from here and this [Unique Skill: Inspect] is very useful.

The only thing I don't understand is why the heck is my charm so low? Is this system trying to call me ugly?

"I'm NOT ugly!"

I shouted again, or tried to shout, at the sky, hoping those two shady figures hear me and correct their mistake.

And just like before, no answers from above, they send us to an unknown world, the least they could do is look after us a little bit.

"Abandon-ers!"

It's no use saying it, but it still feels good to say it out loud, or atleast trying to say it out loud, damn you snake voice!

I let it go as u couldn't do anything about it for now and I also have a lot of skills that I wanted to check out.

Let see the other unique skills that I have, I tried to think about using [Unique Skill: Inspect] on [Unique Skill: Consume] and then a screen popped out in front of me.

[ [Unique Skill: Consume]:

A skill granted to the user by the blessing of a Supreme God.

This skill allows the user to get the skill of anything it eats or consume. ]

That's another dope skill I got, I just have to eat to get stronger that's easy-peasy.

Let's check out the other unique skill I have.

[ [Unique Skill: Storage]

A skill granted to the user by the blessing of a Supreme God.

The skill allows the user to store anything it wishes in a space pocket which is only accessible to the user. ]

I can't exactly think of how I'm going to use this, but I'm pretty sure I'll figure something out later about what to do with it.

There's also another skill that I've my eyes on [Soul Skill: Tame Lv.1] that i wanted to check out.

[ [Soul Skill: Tame Lv.1] :

The skill granted to the user after their soul's inner potential is unlocked.

The skill grants the user to tame any creature that they had defeated or is willing to be tamed.

The tamed monster will never be able to go against the words of the user.

This skill is partially connected with the skill [Unique Skill:Consume] ]

Another dope skill and I will make sure to use this skill to the fullest, but first I've to defeat someone so ill do it later.

Let's see the other skills and for some reason I've two vision skills let's try them out and so I activated the skill [Snake's Vision Lv.1].

Suddenly the colors from my vision disappeared and got replaced by yellow, green and red, it was little bit difficult to handle at first, but after thirty seconds I got used to it for some reason.

My vision had expanded to complete 360° and I could look very far away, the only downside of this was that everything was yellow.

Then out of nowhere I see some red figures coming towards my direction, there was black writing with points connected to them and it said.

Number: 6

Nature: Hostile

Advice: Hide

Distance: 200 m

There was another writing connected to a single red figure which seemed to be in front of them.

Number:1

Nature: Afraid

Advice: Help

Distance: 192 m

I also tried using [Unique Skill: Inspect] simultaneously with my [Snake's Vision Lv.1] and fortunately it worked.

By using it i got to know that there was a pack of wolves monster that was the hostile group and they were chasing a baby rhinoceros monster.

Most of the wolves were weaker than me, but the one leading them was at the same level of strength as me according to our status, but he was injured.

◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇

The advice that I got from my [Snake's Vison Lv.1] was very contradictory, how am I supposed to hide from the wolves and help the rhino baby at the same time.

And as I was thinking about my course of action, I get a notification from my system.

Ding!

Your skill [Snake's Vision Lv.1] leveled up!

"Not now system, can't you see I'm busy right now!"

I noticed that the advice part in the writing changed.

Number: Six

Nature: Hostile

Advice: Sneak Attack

Distance: 86 m

And as fro the baby rhinoceros, it said

Number: 1

Nature: Afraid

Advice: Defeat the Hostile Creatures

Distance: 76 m

I kept brainstorming on how to perform a sneak attack on the pack of wolves, and I thought that attacking the alpha first was the best option, now I only had to think of how to sneak up to him

I checked all of my differnce skills using [Unique Skill: Inspect] to find something that could help me with my current predicament.

After I checked every skill, I found some skills that could help me and I formed a plan that would let me perform a sneak attack on the alpha without him noticing me.

I climbed the nearest tree with my body, which was weirdly very easy for me and I suddenly I got another notification.

Ding!

Your skill [Snake's Vision Lv.2] leveled up!

I don't know how that happened as I wasn't using the skill at all, I decide to check it out later as all of my focus was needed somewhere else.

This time the level up didn't brought any noticeable upgrades to my vision.

I kept waiting at the tree top for my targets to come near me and now they were at the range of my normal sight, which meant that it was time to initiate my plan.
