******************************
Let's start
******************************
The ground is rocky, surrounded by boulders and strange crystals, both large and small, of all colors. The whole place was almost dark and illuminated by a natural light coming from somewhere.
In a nutshell: I'm in a strange and weird cave...
-"Where the hell am I...?"-
-(Lucky me...)- Of all the possibilities to die, this is the one I got. It could have been anything; an illness, a failed robbery, even the silliest and most clichéd way, like being hit by a truck...
But no... I had to be killed by a perverted, red-haired witch.
And not to forget a portal to another world...
-(Well, at some point I'll have to bleed to death. At least it was a good life...)-
Then I closed my eyes and calmly waited to fall into the warm arms of death...
....
.....
...
....
.....
Okay, for some reason I'm still alive...
It's been about ten minutes, and nothing happened. I was literally just lying on the floor staring at the cave ceiling, waiting to die.
-(Hahahaha. Strange way to pass the time...)-
But it's still strange. After all, they removed one arm and one eye; I should have bled to death by now. But now that I thought about it, I hadn't felt any pain for a while.
-(Maybe taking a look won't hurt...)-
I shifted my gaze from the ceiling to where my right arm should have been, only to be surprised to see a completely healed stump.
-(But when...?)-
I'm absolutely sure I had a serious open wound. No one should have treated it, since there's no one around...
Now I notice that the place where my left eye was doesn't hurt anymore, and I don't feel like I've lost blood.
-"I actually feel fine..."-
But that would be completely impossible. -(Will I be healed when I get...?)- Although that sounded even more impossible. -(How I hate not knowing what's going on...)-
But I'm sure of one thing: I didn't find my answer lying here, waiting to die. I decided it would be best to get up and find a way out of this cave...
As I stood up, I could see that the cave was as large as I thought; maybe larger. There were strange crystals of all sizes and colors embedded in the walls and floors, and small plants growing all around.
But without a doubt, what interested me most were the strange crystals…
I'm no expert in geology, mineralogy, gemology, or anything like that, but I don't think crystals like the ones I'm seeing exist. It's not because of their size or colors, but because of the strange energy they emanate.
-(Maybe one they haven't discovered?)- I considered that possibility, but quickly dismissed it. Those crystals look more fantastical than real. But they're beautiful, so I decided I'd take one.
I approached the nearest, smallest crystal, embedded in the ground. I grabbed it with my one arm and tried to pull it out...
And I tried again...
I tried again...
Again and again...
And the damn thing wouldn't come out! Five minutes trying to get the damn crystal out!
I know I was only using one arm, but it's the only arm I had. -(Is there any other way to do it!?)-
<
-"What!?"-
I looked around in surprise when I thought I heard someone speaking. Someone definitely spoke. -(But who?)- And what they said really interested me. -(Unique Skill [Predator]?)- They also gave me the option to activate it. -(Hmm, what if I activate it? Nothing bad will happen, right?)-
So I decided to try activating it. After all, life is full of risks.
-"Hmm, [YES]?"-
To my surprise, a strange dark mist emerged from my one hand and completely covered the crystal. The fog then disappeared, revealing the crystal was gone.
-(Wh-What just happened? What was that fog and where is the crystal?!)-
<
-(That voice again!)-
<
-"Wh-Who is it?"-
This was already frightening me. Now a voice in my head is bothering and scaring me. But now I remember hearing that voice when I was in the portal.
<
-(Unique Skill [Great Sage]?)-
-"Wait!"- I paused to think for a second -"I also heard that while passing through the portal!"-
-(But, what are these Skills?)-
<
-"W-Wait... Are you telling me I have these Skills?"-
<
-"...."-
-(What the hell...?)-
At that moment, I had a lot of important questions in my head.
-(What are these Skills with not-so-specific names? What would happen if I used them?)-
And without a doubt the most important one was...
-(What just happened to me...?)-
....
.....
...
....
.....
Well, it's already been 1 hour, 23 minutes, and 05 seconds. And how do I know that? It's thanks to my Unique Skill [Great Sage]. That Skill was literally like a video game guide, but it's a very incredible and highly functional Skill. Although at first I didn't know what these Skills were, thanks to [Great Sage] I was able to understand it better.
According to [Great Sage], Skills are like formulas that, once engraved in the soul, can be used instinctively without any practice, although their efficiency and effective use require different amounts of practice and hard work, depending on the talent and compatibility with the user.
He also said that obtaining these Skills can be through birth or evolution and/or through recognition of something called the Voice of the World.
It was at that moment that I realized two things...
One: The voice I heard while I was in the portal was that Voice of the World.
And the second was very obvious...
That I'm now in another world. -(Lucky me, huh?)-
Not only did I almost die during my journey to this place, but I'm also in another world; far from my home, my friends, and everything.
-(This is incredible... Incredibly bad...)-
I'd cry if I weren't totally focused on getting out of this cave. The good thing is that I've been studying the uses of my Skills with the help of [Great Sage].
Although [Great Sage] answers any question now, she's passive and lacks an ego. If I don't talk to her, she won't answer my questions; and that's a shame. However, I'm happy to have a one-way conversation with someone.
Although conversing with my own ability... -(Most would call me crazy, right?)-
-"Ahh~, whatever"-
The first Skill I studied was the Unique Skill [Great Sage].
< [Thought Acceleration]: Increases processing speed a thousandfold.
[Analysis and Judgment]: The ability to analyze and make judgments regarding a target.
[Parallel Processing]: The ability to separate thought and analysis from phenomena.
[Chant Nullification]: When using magic, chanting is no longer necessary.
[All Creation]: The ability to understand any non-occult phenomenon in this world.>>
And that was that.
-(But, all creation? Could it be that I've obtained all the knowledge in the world without lifting a single finger?!)-
Or so I thought, but in reality, depending on the information I understand and the things I know, additional information can be deduced. In other words, I need to see it at least once; but for the things I've seen, I understand it through this power.
But [Cancel Chant]. -(So after learning a skill, I won't need to recite anything?)- And more importantly. -(There is magic in this world!!)- The answer is yes.
With this in mind, there's no need to memorize magic.
Then I moved on to the next Skill.
< [Quick Learning]: Allows you to quickly learn any magical, scientific, and spiritual knowledge.
[Adaptation]: Allows you to adapt to and/or gain resistance from an environment, item, or skill.
[Thought Acceleration]: Increases perception speed by a thousand times.>>
In short: This skill allows me to learn any of the aforementioned knowledge and adapt to any environment quickly.
-"Hmm, a very useful skill for survival. Okay, now for the next one."-
< [Overwrite]: Overwrites the nature of an object itself. Even if one tries to oppose the user, the user will simply overwrite them with a stronger desire.
[Nutrition]: Food has nutrients capable of increasing the strength, speed, and intelligence of the person who consumes it.>>
Well, this skill is a bit, how do I put it... Useless.
Some would say that overwriting the nature of objects can be powerful, but unfortunately, this skill is limited to manipulation and overwriting tastes. Although the part about the nutrients in food, which are capable of increasing strength, speed, and intelligence, is very interesting.
-"Next..."-
< [Item Creation]: Allows you to create any item limited only by your imagination and energy.
[Skill Creation]: Allows you to create skills limited only by your imagination and energy.>>
-(Well!)- This Skill is literally your typical OP Skill. -(Item and Skill creation limited by my imagination? Too good to be true...)-
It seems I need energy to use these Skills. According to [Great Sage], the energy of this world is Magical Energy, or more properly known as Magicules.
Apparently, humans, like me, possess few Magicules, and it's even rare for a human to be born with a Skill; rare in my opinion, since I have seven Skills.
-"Hmm, maybe I'm a special case."-
I was hoping I was also a special case regarding Magicules. I really didn't want this Skill to be useless to me.
-(Please don't let it be! A Skill this incredible mustn't be wasted!)-
-"Okay, enough of that. Let's move on to the next one."-
< [Strategies]: Allows you to quickly formulate complex strategies for battles and wars.
[Problem Solving]: Allows you to solve any strategic problem.
[Weak Points]: Allows you to find the weak points in the enemy's strategies.>>
-"Hmm, a useful Skill for battles... It seems my talent for strategy is finally paying off. Okay, let's look at the next one."-
< [Taming]: Allows you to tame any subdued beast.
[Evolution]: Allows the tamed beast to draw enough magical energy from the tamer to evolve.
[Transmit]: Allows the tamer and the tamed beast to transmit their abilities to each other.
[Soul Binding]: Allows the creation of a soul contract, which makes the tamed beast completely loyal to the tamer.
[Mimicry]: Replicates the appearance of the tamed beast. The skills and abilities used by the tamed beast can also be utilized.>>
-"Tame beasts, huh?"-
According to [Great Sage], in this world there are Human, Demi-Human, and Monster species. Demi-Humans are similar to Humans, only with some different characteristics, such as animal tails and ears, and/or pointy ears.
While Monsters or Demons are different creatures. He also told me that there is an additional subdivision of Monsters, depending on whether they have intelligence and humanoid form, called Majins.
Now returning to the Skill; I think it can be very helpful in gaining allies or even friends. I also find it interesting what it would be like to become a monster. Although it feels a bit like slavery, I would do my best not to treat them like that.
-(If I treated them like slaves, I would be a worse person than I was before...)-
-"Next."-
< [Predation]: Absorbs the target into the body. However, if the target is conscious, the success rate is greatly reduced. Affected targets include organic matter, inorganic matter, skills, and magic.
[Analysis]: The absorbed target is studied and analyzed. Items can then be created and produced. If many items are gathered, a duplicate can be produced. In the case of a successful skill or magical analysis, the same technique can be acquired.
[Stomach]: The target can be stored. Produced products can also be stored. There is no storage time limit.
[Mimicry]: Replicates the target's appearance. The skills and abilities used by the target can also be used. However, this depends on the analysis and acquisition of information regarding the target.
[Isolation]: Materials harmful or unnecessary for analysis can also be stored. They can be used to replace magical energy.>>
-"...."-
-(Wow, and I thought the [Create] Skill was OP)- I was honestly impressed by that Skill. -(Are you telling me I can copy the Skills of the targets I absorb?)-
It seems too unreal, but now I understood what happened to that strange crystal. It must be stored in the [Stomach]. It was at that moment that I had an idea.
-"Can I link [Analysis] with [Predator] and [Parallel Processing] to [Great Sage]?"-
< -"Of course [YES]!"-
I took advantage of the crystal being stored and tested [Analysis] on it.
< Magic Ore: A magical mineral considered to have the same value as gold due to its rarity and versatility. Unlike normal ores, magic ore only forms around monsters of rank B or higher. This is because when regular ores are exposed to dense concentrations of Magicules for a certain period of time, the minerals will slowly absorb them and eventually turn into Magic Ore.>>
-"Wow, I got something amazing!"- I exclaimed in surprise, then began to think with a smile. -"Value equal to gold, huh? I think I'll take a few more."-
Next, I wanted to try something more ordinary, like the grass growing in the cave. I used the [Predator] skill and saw black mist pour out of my one hand and envelop the grass, then absorb it.
And so, I executed the skill in one go!
< Hippokte Herb: Used to create ointment. It only grows in areas with abundant magical energy. If the herb's sap is combined with magical energy, an energy-restoring pill can be created. If the herb is ground and combined with magical energy, an ointment to stop bleeding can be created.>>
-(Who would have thought!?)-
-"A simple herb... It could be that incredible,"- I muttered in amazement. -"I think I'll stockpile some of them, too."-
-(But wasn't the analysis compiled too quickly? I mean, Shouldn't it take longer?)-
Linking it with [Parallel Processing] was definitely the right decision. Out of curiosity, I decided to cancel the link and try making one. It took fifty minutes. The [Parallel Processing] time has become terrifyingly short.
-"It seems a wonderful skill has come into my hands,"- I smiled at that. -"It seems it wasn't all bad..."-
And so I continued walking, trying to get out of the cave, collecting both Magic Ore and Hipokte Grass along the way.
....
.....
...
....
.....
-"Okay, this is getting boring..."-
Even using the [Predator] Skill on the Magic Ore and Hipokte Grass wasn't as entertaining as before. Walking for a long time didn't help much either.
-"Haa~"- I sighed tiredly. -"Can't something interesting happen in this cave?! I'm getting bored here!"-
I shouted as I raised my arms in frustration at walking for hours.
-"I completely blame that red-haired witch and the pervert for this boredom!"-
Just as I remembered that red-haired witch and the pervert, I remembered the reason why they performed that strange ritual on me...
-"What was it called...? Sacred Gear; I think that's what the red-haired witch said."- I had no idea it was a Sacred Gear. That's when I had an idea. -"Wait a minute! Now I have [Great Sage]! With his help, I'll be able to find out!"-
While I may not know anything about them, I did see that strange procedure they performed on me; some information must come out of that.
-"[Great Sage], what are Sacred Gears?"-
< -"Huh? Really? It was a bit disappointing."- I was actually disappointed and confused by that answer. -"Could it be because that Sacred Gear is from my world and not this one?"-
Until now, that was the only theory I had on the matter. If that "Sacred Gear" had been an ability or something similar, surely [Great Sage] would have known.
-"Well, I'd better try something else."-
Then I theorized that this Sacred Gear was inside my body. During that strange ritual, I saw something coming out of my body, so it must have been that Sacred Gear leaving my body.
-(Doesn't that mean I don't have it anymore?)- I wondered if I might still have that strange thing with me. -(Though I can have [Great Sage] analyze my body, see if I have anything strange.)-
-"[Great Sage], can you analyze my body?"-
< -"A soul...? In my body...?"- Just when I thought things couldn't get any worse, this happened. -"Great... I have an unknown soul inside my body."-
-(But this soul, is it the Sacred Gear?)- I now remember that shortly before I fainted, I could see a strange gauntlet appear on the pervert's left arm. That gauntlet was formed from that strange energy that came out of my body. -(That gauntlet was the Sacred Gear? So I can make it appear that way?)-
So I decided to give it a try. I stopped my endless pacing and closed my eyes. I extended my left arm—literally my only arm—and concentrated. At first, I felt nothing, but then I felt something inside me, like an energy, or rather, a presence.
I concentrated to get closer to the presence, only to open my eyes because of a red glow in front of me. At first, I was scared, but seeing nothing in front of me and a strange-looking red gauntlet covering my left arm, the fear turned to happiness.
-"Ha, I did it!"-
-(I could do it! I have no idea what this is, but I could do it!)- I couldn't help but celebrate my own personal success. -(Take that, you perverted redheaded witch! Your plan completely failed!)-
Then I put the celebrations aside to find out more about the gauntlet. I looked at it closely and noticed it had a unique appearance. It was crimson red, with a green jewel and two golden spikes on the sides.
-"Now that I think about it, the red-haired witch said this could kill gods."- I looked at the gauntlet with a raised eyebrow. -"I doubt this thing could kill a god."-
-"[Well, you're wrong, brat...]"-
-"What?!"-
I fell backward in shock at what had happened. After my comment, the green jewel lit up, and words could be heard coming out of it.
-(The gauntlet... The gauntlet just spoke!)-
-"Wh-What the fuck?"-
-"[You're not the first, and you won't be the last to be surprised...]"-
The gauntlet spoke naturally again from its green jewel.
-(How could I not be surprised!? You're a talking gauntlet!)-
-"Wh-Who are you?"-
-"[Ha. Prepare yourself, brat, you're talking to a supreme being, one of the strongest Dragons in existence. I am the being that makes the Gods tremble with my mere presence! The Celestial Dragon Ddraig, the great Sekiryuutei!]"-
-"...."-
-"[....]"-
-"Who?"-
-"[W-what? You s-seriously don't know who I am?]"-
-"Not the slightest idea,"- I replied with natural honesty. -(Sorry. It was a grand and proud introduction, but I've never heard of you...)-
-"[Well, maybe you're not aware of the supernatural world]"-
-"Supernatural world?"- I widened my eyes in shock at that. -(Wait, wait! Are you telling me the supernatural exists!?)-
Now that explained all the weird things that had happened to me, like this talking gauntlet or that strange black and crimson energy generated by the red-haired witch.
-"[Yes. Now that you're my host, you'd better know what you've gotten yourself into]"-
And so the voice of the gauntlet began to tell me about the Supernatural World.
....
.....
...
....
.....
I was shocked...
My whole life, I'd been living in a world filled with fantasy and mythological things. According to the gauntlet, or rather, Ddraig, he told me that my previous world wasn't just inhabited by humans, but also by beings like Demons, Angels, Fallen Angels, Gods, Dragons, and several other species.
-(Shit... I feel like I've been living under a rock this whole time...)-
After that explanation, I told Ddraig about my current state of being trapped in another world and how it happened. It's worth saying that he didn't like the reason for my death.
-"[That red-haired witch! She actually dared to try to seal me into a hopeless pervert who only cares about breasts!?]"-
-"Right?"- I agreed with Ddraig's words. -"That breast-loving pervert is hopeless..."-
-"[Though I also have to say you're unlucky, partner. Being trapped in an unknown and strange world like this... It must be horrible.]"-
-"Don't even remind me. Do you even know anything about this world?"-
-"[No one does. This world, like the portal you came through, are one of the oldest mysteries of our world. Not even the Old Gods know about its origin.]"-
-(Now that's strange...)-
What Ddraig told me only made this world more mysterious, and therefore, more dangerous to my survival.
-"Ah~, whatever."- I sighed to clear away the worries that were invading my mind. -"The good thing is that now with you by my side, things might turn out better."-
-"[Of course, buddy! Nothing in this world can stop us!]"-
-"Yeah, that's how it's said!"- I shouted cheerfully, trying to cheer myself up and give myself confidence. -(Maybe things will be easier from now on...)-
*Puyon. Puyon*
-"Huh...?"-
Suddenly, I heard a strange noise in front of me; as if something was crawling on the floor. I looked to find out what it was, only to see the strangest creature I'd ever seen.
It was only a little bigger than my head. It had an oval shape, with a slimy, metallic-gray build.
-"What the heck is that thing?"-
< -"A monster?"- I blinked, slightly surprised. -"It doesn't really look that dangerous. It looks more... Adorable."-
I wasn't ignorant about slimes. They were literally the most well-known monsters in games, novels, and manga. They were undoubtedly the first monster the heroes faced and defeated when they began their adventures. I honestly thought it was a cliché that it was the first monster I saw.
-"Though it must be pretty powerful for a D+ rank."-
-"[D+ rank? I don't know how that classification works, but I think it's too high for a simple slime]"-
Although Ddraig seemed to doubt the small creature's strength.
-(Do slimes also exist in our world, and are they weak?)-
But then my thoughts ceased when I saw the slime enveloped in a strange silver aura, then rush at my head at high speed.
-"What!?"-
Then the slime slammed hard into my face, sending blood and broken teeth flying from my face. It was as if I'd been hit hard by a metal bar.
-"[Partner, are you okay?!]"-
-"No, I'm not! That thing hit me in the face!"- I screamed as I fell to the ground from the blow. -"Damn, that... didn't hurt..."-
-"[Huh?]"-
-(But how...?)- I was honestly very surprised. That blow literally broke my nose, jaw, and several teeth. -(How is it possible that it doesn't hurt?)-
< -(Really? Does that mean pain doesn't affect me?)- I thought, shocked. -(Well... That's very convenient.)-
But I still didn't like having my face smashed in, so I decided it would be best to dodge the next attack. I looked back at the slime in front of me, to see how it was enveloped in the strange silver aura.
-"Shit, it's going to attack me again!"- I said in panic. Then I decided to ask the [Great Sage] for help. -"[Great Sage], help me! What do I do?!"-
< -"What!? Are you just going to tell me that?!"-
I also decided to use the [Strategist] Skill to calculate all the possibilities. It was like a super calculator running thousands of long and complex calculations in my head. I didn't understand any of those calculations, but in the end, it only gave me one answer and the most optimal solution, which was the same as [Great Sage's]: Use [Predator].
-(Well, it seems I have no other choice.)-
Although it was actually good advice, since for now [Predator] is the only Skill for attacking or defending.
< Just as I received that answer, I saw the Slime quickly rush towards my face.
-"[YES]! Quickly!"-
I closed my eyes and quickly raised my one hand to cover my face, just as the Slime was about to hit. Then the dark mist of the [Predator] Skill emerged from my hand, completely covering the Slime, and then disappeared along with the mist.
-"Did it work...?"-
< -"Phew~, what a relief."- To be honest, I didn't want to get hit again at that moment. -(Maybe there's no pain, but there's damage)-
-"[You have a very curious Skill, partner]"-
-"Don't even remind me..."-
I couldn't disagree with Ddraig's opinion. The [Predator] Skill was undoubtedly powerful if used wisely; only perhaps surpassed by the [Create] Skill.
< -"Analyze it?"- I raised an eyebrow curiously. -"It would be the first time I've analyzed a monster."-
With what I knew about the [Predator] Skill, I was able to copy Skills from those I absorbed.
-"Uhm, it won't hurt to try,"- I shrugged. -"[YES], analyze it."-
< < -"Wow, that's more Skills than I thought,"- I muttered in amazement. -"It also seems I can transform into the Slime."-
Although that last bit, in my opinion, wasn't all that exciting...
-"Wait,"- I then remembered something important the [Great Sage] had told me. -"Isn't it that if the target was alive or conscious, the success rate greatly decreases?"-
< -"Really? How strange..."- I mumbled in confusion, then shrugged. -"Ah, whatever."-
I left that strange answer as one of the [Great Sage's] oddities. The important thing was that I survived my first monster and obtained new Skills.
Then I continued my walk out of the cave, while asking the [Great Sage] for a description of the Skills I obtained from the Steel Slime...
....
.....
...
....
.....
I just received an exact description of the Skills I copied from the Steel Slime.
First was the [Absorb] Skill. As its name suggests, this Skill allows me to absorb objects, both organic and inorganic. That Skill is literally a very, very, very low-grade version of [Predator].
Then there was the [Dissolve] Skill. Also as its name suggests, this Skill allows me to dissolve anything I want to absorb. This Skill can only work best when used alongside [Absorb].
Then there was the [Regenerate] Skill; a very useful Skill. This Skill allows me to regenerate or restore damage to my body; it can even restore lost limbs, as long as it's not a situation where the limbs are constantly being severed or crushed.
When I used it, my nose and teeth regenerated, leaving me completely healed.
-(This Skill is very useful!)-
Ddraig also told me that this Skill can compete with the regeneration Skill of the Phenex Clan, a Demon Faction Clan. At first, I wanted to ask more about that, but I left it at that.
The strange thing about this Skill is that I wasn't able to regenerate my lost eye and arm. When I asked the [Great Sage] why, this was his response...
< I quickly resolved that since I saw my lost arm and eye in another world, the Skill doesn't recognize them in this world.
-(That was disappointing...)-
Then there was the [Impact] Skill. This Skill allows me to produce a massive blow or impact with any part of my body. When I first used it as a test, my entire body was enveloped in a silver aura; and I hadn't even taken a step before I'd already crashed hard into one of the cave walls.
At that moment, I thanked the Residence for the Pain and the [Regenerate] Skill again, as I literally tore a hole the size of myself into the wall, and I bet it would have hurt badly.
I tried again, but this time I focused on my right leg. I saw my leg engulfed in the silver aura, creating a hole in the floor. That's when I realized I needed to focus on the part of my body I wanted to use with the Skill.
-(This Skill will be very useful in fights...)-
Then there was the [Steel Armor] Skill. It's both offensive and defensive, as the Skill encases me in steel armor. This Skill helps me a lot in resisting attacks and hardening my fists to improve my strikes.
The downside to this Skill is that I can barely move due to its weight, but when used in conjunction with [Impact], I was able to move a little.
-(Now I understand why they called that slime Steel Slime.)-
And finally there's the [Malleable Body] Skill. This Skill allows me to change and manipulate my body at will. When I use it, my body turned into a black, viscous mass; Thanks to that I was able to bend parts of my body that couldn't bend before.
Like my neck, which was able to bend enough for my head to touch my back without breaking my neck or anything.
I was also able to transform my body parts into objects made of the same black, viscous material. Like when I turned my one hand into a mallet; but it was useless, as it was made of the goo and fell apart when I hit the cave wall as a test.
And I'm going to forget about Physical Attack Resistance. As the name suggests, this resistance makes my body resistant to physical attacks. It's very useful alongside Pain Resistance.
At the end of all those tests, I wanted to try transforming into the Slime, but I put it off for another time.
-"[Hmm, you really did get some pretty cool Skills]"-
-"Yeah. I'm slowly getting stronger."- I couldn't help but smile as I said that. -"In a while, we'll try to return to our world to teach the red-haired witch and the pervert a lesson."-
-"[That's right, buddy! Neither the red-haired witch nor the pervert will even know what hit them!]"-
When Ddraig said those words, I was arriving at a very large and brightly lit part of the cave.
-"Yeah. And nothing in the world can stop us."-
At that moment, I regretted having made that last comment.
When I arrived, I froze in place, my eyes wide open in shock and fear. My jaw was wide open in astonishment. I fell backward seconds later in amazement.
There before me stood the largest being I'd ever seen, with large teeth and sharp claws, capable of destroying everything in its path. It possessed scales that gleamed like black steel; flexible and durable, like the scales of a fish. It had a wicked look and face, with pure white eyes that stared at me with boredom and curiosity. And not to mention the pair of wings that spread out with pride and grandeur.
- Not even hearing that voice in my head, which wasn't from [Great Sage], was able to shake me out of the astonishment I'd been in as I looked at the being in front of me.
-(It's a damn Dragon!)-
