Chapter 2 - chap 2: enclosed

[ save the world of Alicia] that was the last word , the god goath say to me before reincarnating me to another world -

"umm.."

like a sensation something touched my body - it was soft - smooth - giving the sensation of being licked

"mmmh?"

"meeeh"

a thud drew my attention - like the bleating of an animal - instantly I opened my eyes which were invaded by the light of a sparkling day - I blinked - several times - trying to understand the situation - naturally my face scanned the surroundings - I was surrounded - by strange beasts - they were all on all fours - their eyes had a rectangular pupil reminding me a lot of that [ goat god].

"goat god"

ah- I had almost forgotten that I was reincarnated in another world - it's hard to believe - what often happens in fantasy novels actually happened to me -

"so that's Alicia...?"

my head went around the place - in recognition of information - it was indeed a different world from mine - even if from where I am all I can see is a vast expanse of plain - filled with green grass - illuminated by the sun -

"uh.."

at first I didn't notice it - but my field of vision was blurred - it was some kind of barrier made of wood - it was possible to see the other side through the gap that serves as a bridge between the rows of wood - but why a barrier - again, my gaze went around - following the path drawn by the connected pieces of wood - forming a circle around it - like a prison - not understanding the situation - I was slowly moving towards the fence that served as a barrier - something seemed strange in my walk - being only a second thought for the moment - my full attention my whole attention was fixed on the fence that was holding me prisoner - nearby - I was carefully observing the structure of the wood - it was black in color - slightly dark and gave the impression of being solid - my gaze was concentrated on it - my mind was only thinking about analyzing this mysterious wood

"beep"

an echo resounded in my head - like the thud of a click - instantly a translucent window appeared in front of me - frightening at first - it was floating - no matter where and in which direction I moved my head - as if it was hooked to my gaze _ a voice resounded in my head - it was a woman's voice - the accent was a bit mechanical - the character Hiro Katsuga - a woman's voice

-- the character Hiro Katsugawa has unlocked the skill [ Analysis] - 1/10 --

"uh.."

- Analysis skill? what's that - not understanding a word of what was going on - the voice continued its speech-

-- skill [ analysis gets 10pts increase- due to new character Hiro Katsugawa] --

"10pts..? "

on closer observation- the skill [analysis] had many more points than before -

-- the skill [ analysis] has reached the required point level and is evolving into [ super analysis] --

"[ super analysis]?"

- I was puzzled - I wondered what it was for - it was different from the skills I received from the goat god - would be a sub-skill - I was deep in thought - when the same sound rang out again - quickly I opened my eyes to see what it was this time - the translucent screen had just displayed a text - a notice -

--[super analysis] is a skill that allows you to see hidden information in items around you - raised to its maximum it will allow you to see through objects as well -- do you want to raise the [super analysis] skill to the required level? It will cost you 10pts--

"umm-"

it's true that if I'm really in another world, a skill that allows me to get information more easily would be very useful - seeing through objects could be very useful as well - concentrated in my thoughts - images of the girl who was the victim of the [super analysis] skill flashed through my mind - seeing through objects - my mind left the world of imagination and entered reality - a complete resolution - "ok - let's raise the [super analysis] skill to the required level.

"ok - let's raise the skill [super analysis] to its maximum - "

- I moved my hand forward to click the [ accept button ] on the translucent window that floated before my eyes - when something out of character caught my eye - where my arm would normally be was a [ paw ] - covered with fur - where the fingers of a human being would be - hooves were hanging from the top of the window - a I was terrified - taking a few steps backwards and slipping on the fresh grass - which had surely been drenched by a previous night's rain - just as I was supposed to be on the ground - I felt as if I were sitting down - I was terrified.

"eh"

- at that moment- my vision took existence of the other limbs that made up my body- like the previous paw- they were covered with purple-gray fur- hooves were hanging from the tips- surprised- again- my gaze scanned the other beasts- they all had paws similar to mine- different in appearance- different in color- oddly enough- my gaze rose to the upper part of their bodies- "waaah...".

"waaahh...?"

- my astonishment doubled in intensity - at this scene straight out of a fantasy world - heads with deformed shapes _ far from human conception - two large horns were embedded above their heads - covered with fur - as were most of their bodies - their large tails fluttered from left to right - for no real reason - some were grazing on grass - while others kept shouting - similar to the war cries of a dying soldier

"no way"

- quickly - as I had done once before - I opened my profile window a second time -

- no doubt I had been reincarnated as a goat - it's even marked in my profile - tears were flowing from my eyes - expressing my sadness - I had really been reincarnated as a mythical goat - it was unbelievable - at that moment I promised myself to stick one to the goat God when I dreamed it

- beep-

- the same dull sound echoed- cutting short my half-hearted delirium of sadness- my gaze fixed on the screen- it was the same notice from earlier- surely the shock of my appearance had prevented me from validating the offer- the super analysis- information gathering skill- "ok- it costs 10pts- I've got plenty".

"ok- it only costs 10pts of mana- I have enough

in truth my mana numbers were quite high- as well as my health and life points- with this resolution- my finger touched the accept option- instantly a new notice appeared on the screen

-- skill [ super analysis] reached its required level-

- new skill unlocked [ presence detection level 1] --

"uh... each skill that evolves or gets its required point rate unlocks another hidden skill..very convenient"

- [ presence detection?] it would allow me to sense the presence of anyone within a 10km radius? very handy indeed -

"well - let's raise it to the max - and the other useful skills too"

- with a few clicks on the [ elevated ] button i made most of my skills to their maximums- others were evolving unlocking other hidden skills -

[ presence detection ] had evolved to its maximum and thus released another hidden ality function that allows me to sense people's presence - even if it tries to hide it-

[shadow moves] raised to its maximum gave me the ability to move in the shadows or summon them directly from the ground - it's very convenient as to go unnoticed - another hidden skill had also been unlocked by it - the skill [ call of the shadow ] according to the according to the description it would allow me to summon a shadow army as an assistant if I found myself facing several enemies _ even though I never tested it in a real situation - it was raised to its maximum - but unfortunately no hidden skill related to it appeared

[ apraisal ] seemed to be quite a useful skill - which would allow me to assess the level of dangerousness and killing intent around me - it was a skill similar to [ super analysis ] - so I raised it to its maximum - it went from active to passive - unlocking a new hidden skill - [ zero- intent ] its name was strange compared to the others but - but its use should be indispensable for me - it could take from zero any killing intent directed against me - it was a unique skill that will be very useful to me - just like the skill [apraisal] it fell into the category [passive] skill - healing magic is very useful in - especially when you are in an unfamiliar world - so I raised the passive skill [healing] to its maximum - it released another hidden feature - which heals my wounds twenty times faster than the basic one -

- almost all my skills had been raised to their maximums except for the skill [ skill stealing] it's the only one I couldn't progress- maybe there are conditions to make it evolve- I wondered- after all a skill that allows you to take the skills of others is a bit- abusive- let's face it- with a pained sigh- I pronounced the word [ statuses] a command that displays my file where all the information about me is mentioned-

- they had been added to my record - but my level had not gone up a notch even though my experience points [Ep] were at their maximum - would that be the one from my previous world? I wasn't that special - I didn't do sports - I skipped class expeditions to read magazines - whatever -

- Hiro extended his arm or should I say paw to close the profile window when something caught his eye - "uh... my manic points.

" uh... my mana points did not drop -"

- indeed hiro's MPs [mana points] hadn't dropped at all - keeping his ceiling at four figures of nine -

"i did use a good amount to maximize my skills though -. could this be some kind of bug? "

- his paw extended- Hiro extended his arm to click on the [Mp 9999] option a pop-up window opened overlaying the other one

- uh... what is..."

-Hiro was wordless - facing the square window that floated in front of him, similar to the first one - overlapping with it

- "what's this.."

- eyes wide open- Hiro was fascinated by the text mentioned on the screen that had just appeared-

[ Mp [ mana point ] - 9999- unlimited- unknown system- ℅$¥¥£¢¢¥¥]

"mana - unlimited- unknown system _? is this a bug - ? "

- Hiro watched the pop-up window- floating in front of him - translucent- light blue- after a few moments- it disappeared by itself- leaving Hiro dumbfounded- in front of the main window- floating-

"having unlimited mana is the best thing ever".

- Hiro declared after coming to his senses and returning to reality - standing - on all fours - reincarnated as a goat - Hiro was facing the wooden fence that served as a barrier - a way out - he could use the skill [ levitation ] - his body became light - as if all gravity restrictions had been cancelled - he rose into the air - above the fence - he could finally see a part of the vast expanse of alcia - beyond the green meadow - mountains were visible - it was hundreds of meters high - of an uncommon appearance - at their feet was a vast expanse of grass clustered - infinitely larger than those of the meadow - it was the closest thing to a forest - the difference was that it was covered by a thick blackish mist

Looking further into the world he was in- Hiro forgot the feeling of being in the air- rising much higher- when a sound similar to a scream caught his attention- he looked up- his eyes glazed over at this unusual sight

"...dragons"

a gathering of dragons floated in the sky - in a circle - the size of a mountain - they were covered with black scales that shone under the sun's rays - fierce eyes - each beat of their wings emitted powerful gusts - "woa- real dragons" - he said

"woa - real dragons

-in effect for Hiro- dragons are creatures that have been extinct for thousands of years- no one had ever had the chance to see one- so close- so very close- one of the dragons spotted him- floating- eyes scaled with wonder- the dragon charged at him at full speed- echoes could be felt in the form of a sonic explosion-

"eehh"

- Hiro had just become aware of the beast that charged at him at a speed greater than sonic waves - filled with murderous intent - mouth wide open - could swallow a human whole - "what..wait..wait..wait.

"what..wait..wait. "

- Hiro tried to reason with the beast- but to no avail- the murderous intent of a hungry dragon cannot be calmed- in an instant- the dragon instantly changed direction- passing close to Hiro who had covered his face with both paws- trembling with a few seconds _ the time it would have taken him to be devoured whole- slowly opening his eyes - cautiously- he found himself floating in the same place where he was - alive- the dragon that had tried to devour him - joined the others of his kind

"eh...?"

- not understanding the current situation - the sound of a click resounded in his head - it was the same sound from the previous times - signaling the display of a pop-up window

The skill [ zero-intent] was used - the character Hiro received the title of [ dragon tamer ] - °°

"uh... the skill [zero intent]? the one that suppresses all killing intent against me - "

- remembering the last events that took place - with a nod of his head - Hiro admitted the murderous intentions of his predator

"Lucky to have such a useful skill" he declared with satisfaction - when the mechanical female voice rang out once more

due to the acquisition of the title [dragon tamer] a new skill has been unlocked - °°

"a new skill? and what is this title of dragon tamer?

Skill [Dragon Flame] has been unlocked - raised to its maximum level - Skill [Dragon Flame] will evolve into [Dragon King Plasma] and new hidden features related to it will be unlocked - do you want to raise the skill [Dragon Flame] to the required level? It will cost you - 10pts of mana °°

"woa-" Hiro exclaimed at this scene- [ dragon flames] ? if I maximize it will evolve into [ dragon king plasma]?- Hiro was in ecstasy- he went from surprise to surprise- slowly he - gradually cancelled his [ levitation] skill until his four legs touched the silky green ground- which had dried in the sunlight -

-- hey did you hear that noise? -- asked a man to his colleague

-- yes, do you think the animals were attacked?" he replied, opening the door to a small cabin on the other side of the enclosure

-- I don't know, let's go and see what's going on," he proposed, following his colleague out of the hut.

- they were two men- heavily dressed- one carried a sword at his thighs- the other had a black leather whip- the type used to train rebellious beasts- thieving vibes emanated from them- they were both heading for the animal pen-
