Chapter 39 - Chapter 38 - Ruler of Greed.

After spending a few more hours hunting, we built a house to rest in. Kumoko had gone up another level and was already at level 6. She was going to evolve in a little while.

Moreover, the number of skills she's gained is quite large. I can't compare myself to her. The number of skills I gained during this hunt was 0.

Ah, and I also noticed something extremely unpleasant.

Kumoko had gained a new title after killing the dragon, but I hadn't.

'I didn't win when I killed Gehre and Kagna, and I didn't win after participating in the battle against Fuit. This is...'

The title in question is:

[ Dragon Slayer ]

In addition to the title, Kumoko has received two new skills. [ Ultimate Life LV1 ] and [ Dragon Power LV1 ].

To be honest, they're not skills I want that much... But they would help me get stronger.

I'll get them at some point.

'Will I only win the title when I kill Araba? He's powerful, so it's possible.'

But now...

[ Are you hungry? ]

I wrote on the wall for Kumoko, and she nodded. Then she went off in search of something to eat. Knowing she could deal with the monsters nearby, I didn't follow her.

After a few minutes, Kumoko returned carrying three Elroe Randanel to eat. Kumoko was already preparing to eat when I offered to cook the meat a little with my fire magic.

She accepted my offer.

I cut the monsters into pieces with my claws and then roasted the meat with my fire magic. I was cautious not to burn the meat. And when Kumoko tried it... she didn't look very happy.

[ Bad. ]

She scratched the floor to tell me this.

'It's as expected...' Even if it's cooked, it's still a monster. If I remember correctly, the only monsters that taste good are the monsters in the middle layer of the labyrinth.

While watching Kumoko eat, the cooldown finally reached 0, and I can now edit a new skill. I removed the [ Lust ] skill and picked up the most helpful skill. The [ Greed ] skill.

The effect of the skill is:

[ Causes the user to randomly take stat values, skill points, and skills from slain opponents. ] 

I think it's the strongest skill among all Seven Deadly Sins skills. I may be exaggerating, but that's what I think. It's a very stolen skill. It's like a hack.

And then...

[ Condition satisfied. Acquired title "Ruler of Greed" ]

'I've acquired a new title.'

However, I realized something disheartening. Now that I had deactivated the edit I made and the [ Lust ] skill had disappeared, the title [ Ruler of Lust ] had also disappeared along with the skill.

And I also remembered something after I saw the skills I received when I got the title [ Monster Slayer ].

I should gain some skills when I acquired the titles [ Ruler of Pride ], [ Ruler of Lust ], and [ Ruler of Greed ]. For example, I remember that when the user receives the title [ Ruler of Greed ], they should gain two skills

But I don't remember what they are.

'Well, it doesn't matter. The important thing is that I have the [ Greed ] skill.'

How should I test this?

'I should warn Kumoko and then go out hunting.'

[ Hunting ]

[ Skill points. ]

Kumoko read everything I wrote and agreed. She would stay in her comfortable house and rest while I hunted some monsters. And so, I began my adventure.

Unlike what I expected, there weren't many monsters around. I wonder how Kumoko managed to find those monsters so quickly.

'Right~~ Right~~ Where are you monsters?' I walked while looking around. I walked for almost two kilometers before I found my first enemies. This time, it wasn't monkeys.

I found two Elroe Greshigard walking together. I don't know how common this is, but it's the first time I've encountered two of these monsters walking together like this. And so, I approached.

I haven't edited my Status as it's unnecessary.

In an instant, the monsters had their bodies split in half by my claws.

And when I killed them.

[ The skill "Cutting Enhancement LV1" was learned ]

'I've already gained a new skill!' It wasn't a skill that would help me much, but it shows that the Greed skill is activated. Seriously, now I feel excited. And that's when my fun began.

I edited my speed and started running through the labyrinth, killing all the monsters I encountered.

Notifications and more notifications kept arriving, but I didn't care and just kept killing. I want more skill points, I want more status points, I want more skills.

The only thing I could think of at that moment was "Kill, kill, and kill." Keep killing these monsters is my goal.

I had even tired myself. I sighed and "sat down" on the ground to rest for a few minutes before returning to where Kumoko was.

And while I was resting.

[ "SP Rapid Recovery LV3" became "SP Rapid Recovery LV4" ]

'I hope this skill reaches level 10 soon.'

In addition to this skill, many things have changed in my Status. I was even startled when I looked at my number of skill points and new skills.

'The [ Greed ] skill was my best acquisition.'
