Chapter 14 - A beautiful home with a System error
"Haha...as expected of me...im truly becoming more powerful as the days goes by." Gazing at all of newly acquired skill, I can feel a deep sense of pride growing within me, becoming one with me. It's truly a feeling one can get high on. "But seriously, am I a vampire or what, because the effects of my personal skill is really making me seem like I'm half vampire or something."
Looking to my right, I can't help but frown, "I guess these were for naught." I said while storing away the wooded skewers that I had pulled out from the holes. With the scorching sun, hovering in the sky, I finally set out after crafting 2 brand spanking new spears which were now strapped on to my back like a baby.
"Now then...where should I head in order to find myself a river. I'm sure these monsters must have some water source since they were looking pretty lively. But where, is the question." I thought about it for a while. It seemed pretty hard to find a river of sort when I had no idea where on ear...on mirron, I was."Hmm...maybe..." It was then I had a marvelous idea, a solution only I could make do with.
"Status, Skill Store"
"Yep, when life gives you lemons, you make lemon meringue." After a few boring moments of endlessly searching through a ton of skills, I finally found one to solve my current predicament that I find myself in, and using 7 points, I purchase it."
"Water sense"
Immediately after activating my newest skill, I closed my eye lids and stood still listening intently for anu sounds resembling that of water. It seemed as if I had gone deaf, as all the sounds in the forest had gone silent. The winds stopped belowing, the insects stopped their stridulation and the birds became mute, not a chirp in the vicinity. After a brief moment of utter silence, I could faintly hear a gushing like noise south-east of me.
"Okay...that way it is then." Deactivating my skill, i quickly sprinted off towards the origin of the gushing noise, moving at the fastest speed I could.

"Huff...finally." I was completely exhausted after all those days of running. Wipping the dripping sweat from my temples, I set my gaze upon what was directly ahead of me. Honestly speaking I was left speechless.
It was glorious. I stretchedy vision to it's limits as I enjoyed the breathtaking scene in front of me. A tall steam of water flowed down at insane speeds from 100's of meters high, collapsing in a wide pool of foam and rocks. The river itself was amazing, stretching about 12m wide and God knows how long. It was crystal blue to the point where one could see the greyed out form of the marine life which was swimming deep down.
Enclosing the beautiful waterfall, was a huge cliff that was basically glistening in color under the light of the brightly lit sun.
"Damn, I think I just found heaven." I said in awe as I continued to admire the waterfall scene. "But seriously, I really lucked out today. To think along with a river I'd find a waterfall as well...damn. Though I guess it did take me several days to arrive here...but damn. Also this is my first time I ain't surrounded by a bunch of overgrown trees, so I have to say, the sun here on Mirron, is really astonishing. It wouldn't be a joke to say it was twice as large and twice as bright...not to mention twice as hot." I said while wiping of even more sweat of myself.
Making my way towards the flowing stream of water, admiring it up close as I walked further till I reached the cliff. Following the cliff walls, I soon noticed a hollowed out area behind the waterfall which made me sigh in relief. Honestly I'd be feeling pretty shitty if there wasn't a caved out space here since I only came here for it. Entering the cave, I felt a rather cold chili all over causing me to shiver from my previous sweating. "Hmm...it is colder than I had hoped it would be, but I guess that's what happens when you decide on living directly behind a massive waterfall." I said while rubbing my bare arms up and down to warm up myself.
Walking around the rather empty cavern, I found it to be around the size of an average house back home on earth, about 135²m.

"Damn, if my stats and skills keep increasing at this rate, I'll be able to leave this God forsaken place much sooner." I speak while looking at the emptiness of the cavern. "Interior Decoration...maybe. On a serious note though, I really hope I don't end up forgetting certain skills of mine."
"My God, what am I even going to do with all of these skill points, he-he, I bet my soul Diana was not expecting me to level up this quickly when she bestowed me this cheat system. But I guess there's only 1 thing I can do..."
