Skill?
"We've gained success! It is the start! Our world domination will begin here! Now, we only have one of them, but sooner, we will have an army of unbeatable warriors!" One of them shouted while raising a thick blue book.
I tried to move, but something was stopping me; perhaps it was the red circle light around me.
For some reason, it is now slowly fading. I hope I can move once it's gone.
"However, isn't his horn a little bit different?" One of them asked.
Ain't it?
I hate to break it to you, Mister, but it's fake!
One of them walked towards me. I couldn't see his face, but the smile on his lips was apparent. He is also the one who was holding the thick blue book earlier, and it seems he put it down somewhere.
"Now, I'm going to use my taming magic on him so we can easily put him under our control."
I need to get out of here! But I can't move!
Skill activated!
His hand lit up in yellow light, and he aimed his hand at me. He remained that way for a few seconds and suddenly stopped, his face revealed when he looked up at me with widening eyes.
Huh? I didn't do anything.
"Is there a problem, Cain?"
The old man in front of me removed his hood, revealing his bald head, and immediately looked back and shook his head.
"No-nothing, let me just concentrate and stay silent."
His hand lit up in yellow again while aiming at me, but it did nothing.
The red light was slowly fading, and I could slowly feel that I could finally move my hand.
I raised my hand to scratch my head, making him release a lot of sweat on his shiny head.
"Cain, the magic circle is already fading. Hurry up!"
The others removed their hoods, too, revealing that this group was a gathering of middle-aged men who, for some reason, decided to do this shit.
Baldy Cain immediately nodded. "I know, don't worry, it is almost done."
He's still doing the same thing while making a 'please work' face.
Don't tell me your skill is malfunctioning, old man.
He had already used his skill twice; I thought my skill would activate once the target's skill was cast.
Is my skill malfunctioning, too?
I stretched my arms as the magic circle around me slowly faded away.
Baldy Cain walked back and faced the nine people with him, looking at him with great concern.
"I just thought, rather than influence him with magic, why not show him we're worthy of his assistance?"
The nine people with him looked at him with disbelief; I mean, I would, too, if I were in their position.
Don't tell me he has no plan B. Is he that confident of his own skill?
"What is your plan?"
"I- how about we weaken him first, then I'll just capture him after?"
What does he think of me? A pet?
All of them immediately nodded. "Let's do that; let's weaken it first. Maybe it is still too strong to get tamed."
All of them started to walk towards me while raising their staff. Leading the way was Baldy Cain.
Baldy Cain raised his staff.
"Come forth and aid us! Frost Tiger and Black Poison Boa!"
At once, two monsters appeared in front of me. A massive white tiger roared as it jumped out of the yellow portal. Along with it was a massive black boa. Both of them were taller than me!
Do these things exist here?!
I could finally move, but an invisible barrier was still blocking my way to get out.
Maybe it's because the red magic circle is still not fully gone.
I have to buy some time.
"Mere humans, you dared to awaken me from my slumber? Do you know the consequences of what you've just done?"
It looked like it was effective; they stopped and stared at me with panic on their faces.
I raised my hand and aimed it at them.
"You all will face an agonizing death." I clenched my fist.
Baldy Cain looked at the other while shivering.
"I changed my mind; let's just get rid of him and just summon another one."
"I agree," the nine others said at once while repeatedly nodding.
They aimed their staffs at me and unleashed countless fireballs at the same time; the two summoned monsters jumped on me at once, but the barrier was already gone, and I managed to escape from my approaching demise by jumping away from them, if I didn't jump fast enough, I would probably inside the stomach of the snake right now.
Confirmed: Fire magic Imitated Skill acquisition success!
[A skill that grants the user the ability to invoke and manipulate the element of fire. As well as the other elemental skills, the strength of this skill is dependent on the amount and potency of the user's mana.]
That's it! It finally worked.
Their attacks stopped; maybe they want to check out if I'm still alive.
I've got a skill thanks to them. I don't know how powerful it is when an inexperienced user like me casts it, but I hope it is enough to defend myself.
I raised my hand and aimed at them.
Please work.
"Fire magic."
Before I knew it, the room was instantly covered in fire and everything burned inside it in one attack.
The gigantic fire coming out from my hand was just a straight line of fire, but due to the room being enclosed, the fire was everywhere.
I immediately turned off the magic and ran towards the only exit.
This magic is dangerous!
Yep, I accidentally burned them alive.
The giant boa was gone, the giant tiger was gone, and even the middle-aged men's club was gone, well, almost all of them.
I walked towards the entrance and saw Baldy Cain crawling. His entire body was completely burned and releasing a huge amount of smoke.
His hand lit up yellow-green upon activating a skill.
Confirmed: Healing Active skill Unlocked!
[Confirmed: Active Healing ability Unlocked!]
[Note: Unique Skill Healing has unlocked. However, healing will require mana]
[Confirmed: Sub-healing Skill acquired]
[Note: ability to heal a person one at a time]
However, his current strength was not enough to keep on using it.
"I tried to save the black magic castle, but it still got burned down. How did that happen? It's supposed to be safeguarded by protection magic created by His Highness."
Beats me!
I walked towards him.
"Such a dangerous item shouldn't exist, it deserves to be eradicated."
Yep, here goes my only way to get back home. It got burned to ashes by the people who brought me here.
However, even if Baldy survived, I don't think he knows how to get me back to my world. If I'm planning to enslave someone, I don't think I would waste my time on how to get him back. Besides, if they can, they already did it when they noticed they couldn't subdue me.
Baldy Cain stopped moving, so I left him behind and ran to find the exit in this massive stone building.
"The knights are here! We need to," I heard the voice of one of the guards from a distance.
Did he say knights?
I put my hand on my chin. "That would be a pretty bad situation to get in, and there's a good chance that they will treat me as one of these guys and attack me as well."
As a precaution, I'll just take my leave for now.

It's been three days since I arrived in this world. I managed to survive by eating fruits and hunting easy prey like deer and wild boars. Thanks to my hunting skills and a newly acquired fire magic. I was able to make a meal despite missing the taste of cooked rice and the softness of bread. When you have handy Fire magic at hand, every problem is solved. That would be an easy life if only I had at least seven hours of sleep at night, but no, thanks to the night prowlers of this forest, sleeping was not easy. After walking aimlessly, trying to find a way out of this thick and depressing forest, I finally reached the end of this ridiculously massive forest full of dangers in every direction. "Grab your weapons!" Is that a human voice?

I jumped out of the carriage and waved my hand towards Ross and Ann."See you around, Mister Troy!" Ross shouted as their carriage continued.I nodded and watched them disappear. Now, where do I start?Behind me was a huge white fountain in the middle of a roundabout where countless carriages were passing by. Based on what the adventurers I was in the carriage said, this kingdom is called Korra. And also, according to them, this kingdom was a free one. Everyone was welcome here to stay or to trade. This is the perfect place for me to start. I'm a little bit confused, but hopefully, later on, I will have my grasp on this world. Like the game I play, should I become a merchant or an adventurer? Earning money is my priority for survival.As I walked towards the other side of the road, I could hear the sound of the carriages and the voices of the people walking down the road with me.The people around me were wearing tunics or kirtles made of wool, and I couldn't help but feel uncomforta

After a few minutes of dragging the demon girl with me, we stopped inside the isolated back alley, both out of breath. I promised Rudolph I would stay out of trouble, but the situation forced me to. I sat in front of the demon girl and looked at her appearance. Demons here were far from the demons as portrayed back on Earth in any fictional book. They were ugly and terrifying entities, whereas Demons here were like humans in appearance except for the tiny horns on their heads. This is my very first time seeing one, a real one. I think the demon is about ten years old, and she reminds me of Crissy. The child demon was wearing a white dress stained with footprints of the person who probably hurt her; even her bruises were fresh, but without it, she looked like somebody was taking good of her."I'm Troy, what's your name?"She connected both of her hands and looked down. "Rafaela…Hemsworth.""I see. We need to leave this place as soon as possible, and this place is no longer safe for

The following day, Xin, Leo, and even Leal picked Rafaela and me up and accompanied us to the territory of the Spriggan faction, where I could find Raiden. I wandered my eyes around the place as we walked toward the headquarters of the Spriggan faction. "How's your head, Leal?" Leo asked. "It feels like it's breaking apart; it's all thanks to you, you big imbecile." What caught my attention were the houses and buildings. All of them were built correctly and in good condition; some buildings were made of chiseled stones, and the people walking with us wore tunics and kirtles made of wool. However, it's quite apparent that there's only a handful of them compared to the other citizens of the other factions, where I could see people in every corner. Occasionally, there were some merchant's carriages passing down the brick road. This is the first time I've seen some since I arrived in this town!

"Say, Leal," I said as I breathed. "I don't really know about Summons," I added. "How you acted seemed like you knew a lot about my kind." Leal sipped his tea before looking at me. "Summons were the hybrid of Demons and otherworlders' offspring, if not probably one of the strongest. The common Summons were the horn-types, and the rare were the opaque-eyed Summons. They were the race that the Witch Sora Magestus led during the rebellion," Leal replied."Rebellion?" "Yes. Sora was a brave witch who opposed the Grandmaster's order, leading to a conflict between the royals and citizens. With the help of Summons," Leal made another sip in his teacup. "According to the book I read, Summons was Azrael's bloodline. There was a myth about him leading all the races against the Ancient Serpent puppet, the Great Sage.

"Don't ruin everyone's life just because you feel like it."While shivering, he slowly moved toward me and raised his fists."I don't think you can still fight. It's over."He spat blood and stared at me. "I can still fight."His body got more devastated than I thought, but at least he can still stand up.I exhaled. "Look, don't worry, I won't ruin anyone's life. I don't know what you people think about the people of my tribe, but I'm not like them. Don't go on judging someone based on your judgment or whatever. Besides, I'm not doing this shit because I just felt like it, well maybe a little bit, but most of it is because I have a goal in mind that makes the difference."He chuckled, but his voice was filled with ache.

As I walked, the spectators' roars resonated throughout the place, with some of them jumping due to extreme excitement while looking at me from the audience platform, where a tall wall was separating the arena and the audience platform above.From the crowd, I saw Rafaela waving her hand at me; beside her was Xin crossing his arms, and Leo was conversing with a guy wearing a butler suit standing next to him.I didn't know what they were discussing, so I could only wonder.I waved my hand towards Rafaela."So, you are the new leader of the Fang faction."The fuck?I immediately turned toward the person standing a few meters away from me.Since when has he been standing there?
