[Day 14]
Two weeks had gone by since I reincarnated in this world and I have not even found a single person to talk to.
Well, I am not a ”person” myself anymore, but a monster, maybe.
Does this world consider dragons as monsters or maybe we are respected as a race?
I do not know… But I wish.
I mean, could you imagine that I go to a village and people begin to suddenly praise and worship me as some kind of Divine Beast? That would be nuts.
Nah, that is way too good to be true.
Although I had noticed it before, through this training I decided to curiously check this one sealed Skill I have, the one I never thought I could actually get to begin with.
Ding!
<analyze has=”” been=”” activated=””></analyze>
<unique skill:=”” [god]=”” (sealed)=”” information=”” cannot=”” be=”” seen=””></unique>
So because it is sealed I cannot see it?
Hey System, at least tell me how to unseal it, alright?
…
…
…
No? Nothing at all?
Okay then…
Today in the morning my ice and wind magic had improved a tiny bit more than before, I can kind of make longer knives, but anything else is quite hard!
Agh! I thought I was going to become the master of ice magic now.
I guess there is a lot more suffering to go through before that…
As I begin to eat the last bits of meat of the wolf I hunted yesterday, I suddenly hear a loud howl.
Once more these guys are hunting…
Wait.
Why did I hear it… pretty close to me?
No way.
They came here.
But I made sure to not leave any trails.
I guess I should never underestimate the smelling sense of a freaking wolf.
I have to escape.
If they find me in the cave I will be surrounded by all the pack and eaten alive!
I might have strong magic but not infinite mana, maybe I can take down a few, but not a whole pack!
I quickly jump out of the cave as I heard loud barks from my rear.
I begin to dart through the snow immediately after, without even looking behind me!
Shit, shit, shit!
I feel like muscles tense up as a chill runs through my spine.
Suddenly, a flash of blue light emerges above me and a large icicle falls over me!
CLASH!
Uagh!
…
…Eh?
However, instead of dealing with damage, I feel that a bit of energy is absorbed into my body.
Oh, so Ice Absorption even works with penetration attacks such as these even if it could perfectly pierce through my flesh?
And of course, the one that did that was the big wolf right at my back, the Pack Leader, I assume!
However, it gets surprised when his long-ranged magic attack is completely shattered when it hits my body turning into more mana for me.
Well, how does it feel to send your strongest attack only for me to absorb it like a meal?
I quickly use this new energy to run even faster, there is no way I am fighting these guys, they are 7!
Seven might be a lucky number for some folks, but for me, it means doom at this moment!
Although I felt a tad bit triumphant after taking such an amount of damage and absorbing it like a snack, I really don't want to fight these guys!
I quickly look at the big pack and manage to Analyze them.
They are all rather healthy, and no one is particularly tired!
And the Wolf Pack Leader….
