Day 12

The sound of bone snapping woke me up. Next was the scent of metal that tickled my nostrils. Oh I wished it was copper but it couldn't be. My body was heavy and I laid in a pile of… water? No wait… it's red. That was blood.

I could see a few bodies around me.

[Name: []

[Species: Timber Wolf

[Status: Dead

[A very ravenous creature that roams in thick forests and hilly areas. They are carnivorous beasts of honour, very territorial and believe in the system of power. They are powerful creatures that travel in clans.]

I gulped. Dead? There was a dead timber wolf before me. How? When? Why?

RRRIIIIIIIPPPP

The sound of something being torn apart entered my ears. I dared not move my body. That was mostly because I couldn't move. Moving my eyes around again, I was surrounded by about five timber wolf corpses.

'W-What the heck happened?'

<<Notice: You lost>>

'Sa sa! That's not something you should be saying. Since I'm alive and there are dead timber wolves, why don't we just say I barely made it, no? Maybe in my rage I ended up pulling off an impossible feat?'

<<Notice: You didn't defeat anyone>>

'Huh? If I didn't explain who the hell did!'

<<Notice: The Tyrant of the West>>

I already knew someone else came, but then hearing it coming from the agent was scary. Images of the previous night flashed before my eyes. The absurdity of the creature that appeared that night. How could something so strong exist?

"Hmm?"

I ceased my breathing lest the creature hear my ragged breaths. I could feel eyes on me. My instincts screamed for me to run away, but I seriously couldn't move. What the hell was this? I had even acquired a new ability.

[You have acquired the skill [Auto Regeneration]]

I acquired this earlier. The night I fought the timber wolf, but I was simply too tired to hear the notice or see the panel.

Right now, my health was almost at 100 percent. So why was my body still heavy? I looked at my status and the only thing there was [Normal]. That meant there was nothing absurd on me. So why?

Damn it! This was really annoying!

'I refuse to become someone's meal!'

With all the mental fortitude I could muster I forced myself to stand up. It was painful, but I felt that if I could stand, then the heaviness would go away a bit.

I was wrong.

My body still felt heavy and when I looked forward, a creature was staring at me.

'W-What the hell are you?'

That was all I could think.

[Skills: … Calculating…]

I really wanted to vomit at the absurdity. Wasn't she simply too strong? Like, absurdly strong? The monster's eyes locked with mine. Those beautiful powerful golden eyes. I was honestly excited at the sight. They showed untamed power. As such, my first impression of her could be summed up with one word.

Fierce.

She was fierce and wild. Unmatched in beauty if I were to compare to the girls I knew from my previous life. Also, interesting fashion style. Much like an a****n. Or should I say cave woman? With the rags barely covering her breasts and other private parts.

She was a bit shorter than Shiro and a tad bit more muscular

'Wait… have I fallen for a monster?'

She dropped the limb she was eating. Her mouth was covered with dripping blood and she stumbled towards me. Naturally, I took a step back. She reached out her hand to grab me.

Her ragged up hair swayed from side to side. Every single step of hers felt like the earth was shaking. With one word, I collapsed on the ground.

"Carkien."

[You have received 200 damage]

[Your legs have been broken]

The pain of having my legs twisted came hard. Ok, honestly it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be.

'What? What just happened? Agent?'

<<Notice: There are several possible skills that could cause this effect. Narrowing down the list of skills>>

'Can't you just scroll through her skill set?'

<<Notice: The skill set of the target Minerva is still being scanned and compiled>>

'W-What? Why?'

<<Notice: Attempting to group all possible sub-skills into one skill to minimize status panel length>>

'Why would we care about that? Just scroll through her skill set! Now!'

It didn't take even a second for the agent to come up with a response.

<<Notice: Possession of the skill [Overlord] confirmed. Would you like to see the skill's information? >>

'Yes!'

<<Notice: The skill [Overlord] is a skill that allows its user to have control over all weaker creatures in its territory>>

'So… literally the boss of its territory. Damn it, so that's what she used to break my legs?'

<<Affirmative>>

The hands grabbed my body and lifted me up. I came face to face with the beast and even closer I could only see how pretty she actually was.

'What the hell is wrong with me? Tch, agent! Give me suggestions on how to survive this!'

<<Notice: Use of the skill [Lustful Gaze]>>

'Eh?'

<<Notice: The skill [Lustful Gaze] is one that bewitches its targets, causing them to be entranced by the user. Using this skill will give you a route to escape>>

'Oh? In that case, let's go! Sexy Tori time!'

I activated the skill. In attempt at making the fresh boy face I winked at her. If I had lips I would have probably blown a kiss her way.

She paused and for a moment her eye colour changed to a dark violet, but that was only for a moment.

'W-What just happened? Did it work?'

<<Notice: The skill [Lustful Gaze] failed to work on the target>>

'Eh? W-Wait, then that means-'

<<Notice: Possibility of death now 92%>>

I swear when I get a way to mess with skills I was going to fuck this one up. If I ever saw its real body I'd kill it a thousand times over.

The creature looked at me with confusion, before dropping me and laughing hysterically. I blushed, sort of embarrassed, but the creature grabbed me up with both hands. This time its grip was soft and relaxed.

There was a bright smile on the creature's face. Her bangs fell messily on her face.

"Seran dulk sik."

'What?'

<<Notice: The target "Minerva" just said "You are cute." >>

'Eh? Eeehhhhhhhhhh?!'       

***

So, I had a bit of problem. My problem was with the retarded skill I had known as [God's Voice]. You see, when I first came here, I couldn't understand shit of what everyone was saying, but then when I'm in the jungle with dangerous monsters is when the skill decides to reveal to me that it understands all languages.

Talk about dumb and useless. At the end, its excuse was that I never asked. That was another dumb excuse that pissed me off, because I couldn't remember asking for it to translate for me just now.

Oh yeah, there was also the current problem happening.

Oh? What you might ask? It would seem this beast upon beasts thinks I'm cute. And what happens when a girl sees a cute animal? She makes it her pet!

Now as her pet she has decided to feed me! Normally I should be grateful, but this girl is insane. Wait, why was I calling her a girl? She's a beast! She grabbed some of the timber wolf meat she was eating and tried shoving it down my beak. Seeing that it wasn't working, because I was didn't want to, she chewed it up and spat it into my mouth.

Who the hell does that?! So here I was, receiving an indirect kiss from a monster.

'No! Please! Stop! Stop!'

[Due to the effects of the unique skill [Evolver] you have acquired the following skills]

[You have acquired the skill [Timber Wolf King's Howl]]

I poofed up, being blown out of the goblina's grip. My legs were healed and my body was up to full health. I felt stronger now as well.

[Certain conditions have been achieved. You have acquired the skill [Devil Miasma]]

'Sa sa! What is this? Ah, never mind! Now isn't the time! My chance at escape has come!'

I was about to fly away, but then

"Break."

My wings just snapped and I fell on the floor. This time, the pain was so intense that I actually screamed, something I hadn't done for days.

'Why?! This is too painful.'

"No flying in cave. Heal."

My wings just became normal again, and the pain slowly faded away.

'W-What the heck?'

    The night was painted with the beautiful echoes of the organized howling of the Timber Wolves. Much like a well conducted orchestra, their symphony filled the hollow air and would fill the hearts of any who heard it with dread. It seemed the timber wolves were angry and didn't appreciate what had just happened.Well, who would be happy when their wise, powerful and just king just died? A lot of strife may follow, but not tonight. Tonight, they would all howl in sadness at the loss.Up in the sky, the moon was a deep yellow, unlike its usual silvery gleam. To the timber wolves, this was a symbol of sadness. They had a tale of their patron goddess, Arcarine of the Silver Moon, that said she would paint her own silver moon yellow whenever her champion died.The tale of Arcarine was one that created complete admiration and trust in the hearts of the wolves and their offspring to come. Particularly for this clan of wolves. It went like this.Once in the past,

    Day 13This morning I managed to beg Minerva to let me go out of the cave with her. You would expect that a NEET would prefer to be in the dark quiet cave away from all the monsters, but no! The cave would be too boring!This NEET would rather plunge into the face of death than waste around in a cave.Ok, the honest truth was that, it was simply because Minerva was an absolute beast, so I would have nothing to fear in the forest. Especially if she had the [Overlord] skill. She was practically a goddess.My other priority was finding the remaining twigs. Not because I cared about them or anything. I just felt weird since I lost my connection with them. Apparently they were too far away from me and wouldn't receive any orders from me. That meant they would go crazy in the forest and probably get killed instantly. I couldn't sit by and just let them get killed. It might affect them seeing that two of their brothers were dead. Even if I accidentally killed th

    Later in the afternoon, Minerva decided to take a nap. I decided to use this opportunity to search the forest for my shrubs. She would probably have been pissed if she woke up and I wasn't back in the cave so I would make sure to come back very early. No more than an hour out. I had the agent acting as a timer for me.So now, I was flying through the forest, testing how fast I could go and damn, was I fast. It was pretty cool zooming through the forest. So this was how fast I could go with 600 speed? Then how fast was Shiro? I think she had 200 plus speed. Was that average speed for humans? But that wasn't as fast this. Ah well.How fast was Minerva? Her agility stats were crazy high. I wondered just how fast she could go, and how long it would take for me to reach that level of capability.I decided to take a break and land somewhere on the ground so I could try using my special fusion of my perception skills. I once again tried the use of [Mana Perception], [A

    When they got to the front, they were surprised by the sight. There were actually nineteen dead rabbits and there was an actual chicken. It was bigger than what he had been told by the chief. But much like the stories, it had yellow feathers and looked weaker than the average bird in Larm. What was alarming though was the antenna like structure on its head and the dark violet tips it possessed, as well as black beak and talons.This was an amazing development. He was certain his brother was the cause of their victory. He was interested in the story of how his brother managed to gather this much food. He wanted to hear all about it then boast to the chief once he returned.He looked around for his brother but couldn't find him, so he went to the leader of that hunting expedition. That goblin was considered the smartest of them all, right after the chief and the sorceress, but he was also one of the physically weakest goblins in the cave. And seeing as the goblins were s

    I was led towards the deepest recesses of the cave, where the chief's "throne room" was. He wasn't what I was expecting from a Hob-goblin. From manga that I've read, goblins were savages that just killed without regard for their surroundings. As long as they were satisfied, they didn't care. Although weak, they were numerous and used that fact to their advantage. Hob-goblins, although not as numerous as goblins, weren't exempt from this fact. In fact, they rarely associated with goblins, so this was weird. Sitting in front of me, was the Hob-goblin chief, who I presumed to be the most violent goblin in this village, drinking a bowl of slime. Apparently slime was like a delicacy to these goblins. I had also been offered one but was cautious about it. I then took a sip of it and surprisingly, I acquired some skills and resistances.

    Dorm let out a yawn as he remembered the party that he had attended the last night. It was an extravagant one held by the goblin tribe of Krav. There was an event where chiefs of each of the goblin tribes met annually to share news about events on their sides. He didn't want to go, but as a chief and as the warrior that went on an adventure around the world, he needed to attend to trade very important information."Hey Chief! What's with the yawn? Didn't get enough sleep?"The one who asked this was a young goblin Dorm treated like his son. He had taught him a lot about fighting and survival skills needed and the young goblin looked up to him like a father. People who didn't know that Dorm had married a human woman sometimes thought that they were a father and son pair. (They knew him to act more like a human than a goblin)"Of course he didn't. Did you see all those human women they had?""I know right. Who would sleep when there was an all you can eat b

    Dorm had left Ooo.That was all the goblins could think of. Their last line of defense had left them because of their selfish attitudes. They realized how grim their situation was and were arguing amongst themselves. They wanted to someone else to be chief but did not know who.There was no goblin nearly as smart or as strong as Dorm was. Even his protégé, who was the closest to him had left alongside him. The goblins reached a consensus. They needed to find Dorm and beg him to come back.Sadly when they tried, either the goblins came back with multiple injuries, or they didn't come back at all. They had sparked a very dangerous hatred in the heart of Dorm. That was why he left. He knew that if he had stayed he would have killed more of them.Now, Dorm just spent his days in the forest, searching for his child. The spirit had said that the child was safe, so he had assumed that the child was in the care of the spirit. He could only think of

It was before the entire city and it was a meal that the goddess had chosen for this year’s feast. Him not eating it was an insult to the goddess and would make the people think less of him.He looked at his mother, the priestess, sitting blindly next to the king and being fed her meal by some of her personal assistants. She had no concern whatsoever when it came to this and he found it terrifying, since he had been told by the older generation that she hated these kinds of meals.Several years in service to the goddess must have changed her.

    The hell did I just hear? Did she just confirm that she was the mastermind? No way, right? There was definitely no way that she did it, right? No.I couldn’t doubt the possibility of her having done that. Knowing her, it was highly likely. And from what Sunalla said, the princess didn’t like it when things happened out of her control.

    That was completely sudden and out of nowhere for me. I never imagined to hear such a thing, least of all from an old man in a city that was thousands of feet underwater. Of course, after hearing such a thing I was intrigued in finding out more, but he kicked me out with the promise of trying to find a way to Minerva for me. He stole more strands of my hair though. Turns out he didn’t need the first strand for anything. He simply wanted it for his private reasons… creepy pervert.On the way back, I could tell that the princess was beaming with excitement. I asked why, but she told me not to think too much about it. In times like this, it was really annoying not being able to read her mind.
