2 Chapter 2

I was surrounded by humanoid creatures with green skin, they jumped from one tree to another above me. They were fast in my current level.

Immediately I chanted water spears and water arrows, it appeared on my left and right side. The speed and accuracy from my spells were not good because of my level.

{Ryu, don't be disappointed, even thou you are still level 0, your mana is unlimited, but don't get too over confident, it`s no use if your level is still low.}

I know about that, but still I will do my best to get stronger, I quickly think of a plan. I aimed to one of the Forest Shakalaks, using my spirit arrows it quickly dodge again, but I intercepted its movement with water spears.

Finally one of them fell down from the tree, their speed is fast but their defense was very low. It quickly died by two of my level 0 water spears.

{Ryu, you have gained experience, your level also risen by one. Quickly use ABSORB to the fallen Forest Shakalaka!}

I quickly run towards the fallen monster and use absorb.

{Congratulation Ryu, you have learned Bounce Bombs and Sleep Bombs and you have acquired the

Poison and Sleep Resistance and ailments}

After that I quickly lured all the monsters in one place, when I was finish gathering them, I quickly use Sleep bombs.

One by one their body swayed like a drunk man and started to sleep, I walked towards their sleeping bodies and used my spells to kill them.

I was stunned that they drop copper coins, I know the exact amount of each coins because I used to play MMORPG games.

Then I asked system if I can absorb an item as well.

{Yes, you can and you can craft them also if you have the proper materials}.

I absorbed all of the dead monsters around me, I gained their speed but it will not stack. I can only absorbed the attributes ones in each species of monsters.

I was a little bit tired so I rested for a while, sitting while leaning my back to a tree. I was bored so asked weird questions to system. I asked system if what she thinks of me.

{You`re a cold person and I see loneliness inside of you, but I know deep inside you have a kind heart}.

Well? That comforted me a little, I thank her after that.

Then she scolded me to stop my dramas and to start grinding monsters.

I quickly stood up then walk in the deeper parts of the forest, I looked and It was already afternoon. I jumped at a thick branch of a tree to practice the absorbed ability from the forest shakalakas.

And I noticed that I was also already level 5, my skills was stronger than before as well. I want to check my skill tree but it`s a little bit complicated. System only told me that I only need to picture the image of what spells that I will cast, and because of my infinite mana I can use spells without chanting but it cooler if you chant them.

I was very happy because of systems existence, obviously maybe without her, I`m already at the monsters stomach.

Out of nowhere she asked me a question.

{Ryu? Do you wish to become stronger?},

And I answered her (yes, of course, that is the dream of every being, to become stronger).

She boasted herself and replied {without me nothing is impossible}.

(Yeah, I obviously know that! Because you're a cheat system).

I was walking for almost 20 minutes and finally another type of new monster was locked in my eyesight.

"Forest Jagras"

Level: 10

The Forest Jagras is small and slim, their body shape is very wolf-like, allowing them to move quickly and stand up right for short periods of time. Forest Jagras have light green scales with blue and reddish stripes covering their body, as well as a blue-colored underbelly. Their weakness is fire and lightning.

Without wasting anytime, I quickly used sleep bombs and smoke bombs. I was at the top of them so it was my advantage. I rapidly used water arrows, spears and my new skill javelin.

The water arrows appeared at the top of my head while the two spells are on my left and right. I manage the position of my skills because it`s cooler if people will look at me while I`m using them.

Forest Jagras was stunned and the others fell asleep, some others resisted but it was no use, the barrage of my skills adding my unlimited mana outplayed them.

As always I quickly absorb all of them. From the battle I leveled up to 14. I asked system why my body feels lighter.

{That's because of you leveling up}.

I quickly understand what she means then asked her again if I can craft weapons and armors.

{The monsters you absorbed can be used as materials. Just think of the word menu}.

Immediately I obeyed her and when I said menu, a board appeared in-front me, it was so unreal as if it was a projection. Floating in front of me was some options. Status, skills, craft, equipment and items.

I was bewildered for a moment, and keep thinking of she was really a cheat, She always surprise me by system`s features.

Not wasting any time I crafted a mask, leather armor, leather leggings, and leather cape using the Forest Jagras Hide and I also crafted Daggers made by Forest Jagras fangs.

I also acquired the speed of the Forest Jagras. I tested and run while leaping one tree to another, my movements was way better than the monsters.

For the very first time of my life, I have never felt happiness like this before.

After testing my new abilities, It was already night time, I looked for a place to camp.
