Aura

1671 Words
It's been exactly 92 hrs or 4 days since I rested inside the egg to heal myself. The system literally meant what it said when it said my body will take 4 days to heal. Just a minute ago I couldn't move or feel my body at all. But now everything is fine as if nothing happened to me. not even a speck of injury or wound can be seen on my body. Must be the miraculous powers of the Supremacy system as it calls itself. Even the claws I lost have now regenerated and looks as good as new or even better! First of all, I need to find food, 4 days without a drop of water in my stomach is making me crazy, I cannot go on like this any longer. Of course, there is a large amount of food just right next to me but it is unedible' [Corpse of Falak Dragon] [Unconsumable] Quite disappointing if you ask but I had no choice since the system deemed it to be unconsumable. No need to risk it by trying. I have learnt that even though there isn't any being I can trust right now, the system is one I can. Trust because all this time it functioned to benefit me although some times it can be a pain too. I made up my mind to go hunting monsters, not any monsters though. I will look for the stronger monsters that will benefit me. after all I want to make every use of the gluttony skill to become stronger. I climbed down to the floor of the dungeon using the walls as my steps, with increased stats I no longer needed to waste time using my hands to stick o the wall. Activating stealth I roam through the dungeon in search of prey. How long had it been since I started walking? The dungeon was full of small monsters that made up this ecosystem. However, I didn't even bother trying to hunt them. I killed one by creeping up on it using stealth and finishing it in one blow using amplify. Just to feed my hunger for the time being. It was such a weak creature I didn't even think I was this weak when I first came here. [Rock shell Tarantula] – Common [A very small race of Tarantula found in groups. They have hard-shell protecting them which deters predators from targeting them] + 5 exp I carry on hunting them since they're are easy prey but they are so weak that it wasn't worth dealing with. I need to fight stronger monsters to get more experience to level up and improve my own combat abilities. After a while, I stumble upon a strange portal like thing, kinda like the ones seen in movies. every day i end up finding something new. this new world is definitely making the adventurer inside me excited. [ Discovered Uncommon ranked dungeon- Orc Fest] [Guide Quest generated – Conquer one Dungeon] [Reward- Skill: Battle Honed {Generated skill rank is randomized}] [Battle Honed- The host will gain the ability to learn from battles and strengthen the host own battle experience] {Passive Skill} I finally get a quest now? I was sure there was none of that stuff before but this system does have a quest system. I guess it needs certain criteria to be activated. All the better for me, I was gonna hunt a stronger monster today and orcs don't sound too bad. Above that, I get an extra reward for it. I already made up my mind to clear this mini-dungeon when I stumble on it, and the system decided to give me a reward for it. Killing two birds with 1 stone as they call it. Let's go! As I stepped inside, a strange sense of feeling surrounded me. It was as if I came to a whole different world. All I could see however was a bright light, even if I closed my eyes, the bright glow permeated my mind. Passing through such an unpleasant way, I stepped into the dungeon. The first thing I noticed was the sound of water flowing was a great sight to see. All I had in the form of liquid was the blood of monsters, urgh, makes me wanna puke every time. if I had something to carry the water back then I would definitely do so. The air was completely different than before, I followed the stream as I saw the dense forest in front of me. what stood out was the blood coloured leaves of the trees. I stayed alert and moved slowly, the wind blew causing the branches to sway, I moved from tree to tree, shade to shade trying my best to remove my presence. But it still sensed me anyway. "growl!" The monster crossed through the distance between us in an instant as it struck towards me with an Ax. Swish! The tree cut in half, I dodged to the side as I used amplify and enhanced at the same time as poison covered my claws and thrust towards his head as the axe that was aiming at me had just been drawn up. [Weak point damage occurred] -885    {54 x 2(enhanced) x 3 (amplify)x 3( weak point deals 3 times more damage) – 87 Def Crush!! I was surprised by the damage I put out. My Atk figures weren't even close to that number. This is the power I pack after stacking enhance and amplify? If that is so then I should learn to attack more on weak points. it was killed in an instant. My claws penetrated its thick skull like cutting through tofu. Blood splattered in all directions. Thud. Its heavy, muscular body that seemed threatening in every way with red coloured skin and the size reaching twice as big as me collapsed, colliding with the ground. "nice!' I looked down at my hands covered with blood, I was excited by the newfound strength I gained. It was all worth it. Time to see how gluttony works. Analyze! [Orc warrior]-Uncommon Hp – 0/800        CON- 80 Def- 87                DEX- 16 Atk- 78                STR-26 MP- None [Skills: Taunt(UC), Ax Mastery(C), Hard skin(R)] It had higher Health and attack than me, does that mean I'll take both the stats as mine?no other way to find out. Gluttony! The moment I activated it I could see a blue substance coming out from the Orc's body, not touchable but it was still there. The moment I came into contact with it I couldn't help but let out a groan. "…huh'' It was a sense similar to something penetrating my skin. It made its way into my body as I feel more strength in my hands, legs and finally my whole body. It was an unfamiliar type of feeling which slowly turned into a familiar, pleasant and lastly addicting. [Aura absorbed] [Gained 52 CON] [Healt increased to 820] So it's like this. Only the highest stat will be absorbed and the thing which went inside my body is called Aura. [Auro Stat unlocked] [Aura- Luminous field of ethereal energy that surrounds beings. This energy permeates their bodies and is constantly radiating outward. *Physical Enhancement- By willing yourself to release larger amounts of aura, the Host can greatly enhance their physical ability as well as other abilities the host has. *Detection- the host can use aura to detect in a specific radius with the host as the centre. Current range-1 metre] [Other functions are locked] Is this the power of an Epic ranked skill? Not only did it boost my stats by a huge amount from a single fight, but it also gave me a new special stat. I couldn't stop the ends of my mouth from rising, I can get used to this. "hehe" The evil laugh doesn't really suit me. I could go deeper. There was only one orc here, which might be because it is just the outermost area of the dungeon. Strength! I desired it more now than ever, it felt really nice, the feeling of power running through my blood. I feel unstoppable. Yep stop! Calm down. No need to do this again, the last time I did I nearly died. Yep calm down, anything can kill me. "whew' I get carried away very easily. Might have to fix this sooner or later or else it won't be long until I find myself in death's door. With these thoughts in mind. I ventured deeper into the forest. The deeper I entered, the more it left me confusing. It felt like there was no end to this forest. However, I didn't worry about anything concerning me being lost out here. My human instincts tell me as long as I follow the stream I will reach what I am after. As I walked in this manner, the forest started opening up as a huge hut-like structure can be seen in some distance away. I began to see Orcs roaming in groups. I did not even try to hide this time since the Orcs for some reason can sense me anyway. I need to separate them somehow, too many of them are still beyond my means to fight. Even though I have gotten stronger in many areas I haven't gained too much experience in fighting itself. I am strong in my skills and body but I still need the experience to fight groups of monsters, here in this case Orcs. I do have a plan in mind, although I am not confident in fighting them all I am confident I could aggro them and lead them inside the dense forest. Having decided on a course of action I ran towards a group of Orc instantly catching their eyes as they charged towards me. Activating stealth I escaped and head inside the forest again, I can easily outrun them and the reason why I used stealth was I did not know of it before. Luckily for me, they followed. The hunting begins!
