1 The system a blessing or a curse (2/2)
”Basically” said the man without a change in voice
”You know if I didn't know some monsters are edible I would have thought you were being racist” said Draig
”You can eat regular food” asked the man in surprise
Draig remained silent after that, he was being treated as an unknown and left to fend for himself for the most part as well as being cut off from the world. He vowed he would upgrade his system and make them all regret it one way or another.
Draig was dropped off on his farm and then an iron gate was set in place after the car had left leaving him alone in the wide open space, sighing as he was truly left alone he went to find the supposed farm house that was here. It didn't take him long to find it though, it was old and spooky and he was pretty sure it smelled like death.
”This is definitely racism” said Draig as he stepped inside to get out of the sun and train his current skills, upgrading the proficiency would allow him more capabilities and the practice would make the movements more fluent.
With that thought Draig practiced til night fall waiting for his first shipment to come, he was supposed to get resources starting today at one month intervals. He waited and waited but found nothing was coming. Narrowing his eyes out of spite Draig walked to the gate leading to the Forbidden zone, he had to eat after all.
Sprinting into the wooded area of the forbidden zone he came across a goblin village, he figured this would be a good place to get some resources.
He checked his status via the system to see how much energy he had to spare and noticed a blinking light in the corner.
”Drink the blood of a Goblin to gain its inherent ability” read Draig seeing that it would just be something else to use in the future he went for it. He skulked through the village looking for a well off Goblin so he could gather a good bit of stuff, his footsteps through the village were nonexistent and his speed was ridiculous as he busted into a large hut by sneaking through the window.
He saw a Goblin sitting in front of an odd circle, it seemed he hadn't been noticed yet, stepping silently he crouched behind the goblin and sank his teeth into its neck savoring the taste of blood flowing past his lips. The goblin struggled for a bit before he went limp and started to shrivel up.
Checking his menu again he saw his mission was complete, and he was shocked at what he had gained.
The new abilities he had gained were things that humans had no hope of understanding but now he had the inherent knowledge of it. He had discovered the Goblin form of alchemy, a far more effective set of brewing techniques that made potions far more potent, Voodoo but it quickly changed to curses in his skill list. He guess he knew why no human could ever hope to learn these ways, it was in their blood.
He scavenged around and gathered what he could using the system's storage and departed the goblin village and returned to his farm through the gate. Draig immediately went into the basement of the farm house, and removed everything he had taken from that goblins hut before placing it on the various shelves.
Once again he looked at his status and saw his system upgrade bar was five percent full.
”So I can increase it faster drinking the blood of the monsters in the forbidden zone” said Draig
He no longer felt hungry having drank the blood of the goblin so continued practicing his skills he would see to it that the guilds regretted slighting him, he would make them regret ever having cursed him to this seclusion.
