Chapter 139 - I assign you
Level 2837 → Level 3460
The giant Kang Han Soo broke the monster’s necks, but the experience points passed to me for some reason. As if to confirm that all the forces (experience points) were taken from them, there weren’t even corpses left; they had simply disappeared. If the hand slipped and the sword went flying, it didn’t work, but the race attribute was applied if I had the intention.
This Hero would raise the Magic Dragon and the Holy Beast. In my kind heart.
”Haaap!”
”Taaah!”
Two people then emerged from the sand, shouting. Miss Chicken was in complete disarray with sand stuck in her feathers, and the expression on the student council member was a simple frown. The rising sandstorm had buried them. I greeted them joyfully.
Booong-
The giant Kan Han Soo, created by combining the elements, kicked them with all his might. One might think that due to its enormous size, it was slow, but the laws of physics do not apply to Captain Kan Han Soo.
Was a tiger slower than a cat? It was definitely not. This was just a simple principle. Strength was related to the size of the muscle. So when the body size grew, the bodyweight became heavy, which resulted in slowing the movement. What did it mean? If the body were to grow twice as big, the muscle quadruples, and body weight would also become eight times heavier. That was why a person over 2m in height was over 100kg even though they were not fat.
However, that only applied to common creatures, not to Captain Kang Han Soo.
”Kyaaa?!”
After being hit by a huge leg, Miss Chicken screeched as she was tossed to the side. Even the Flying Skill (Z) and Angel’s wings couldn’t help her dodge as Captain Kang Han Soo pressed her with its massive power. She could have slipped between his fingers like a fly or a mosquito, but the spirits of the wind wouldn’t let her.
The spirits of the earth and the spirits of water compacted the sand, and the spirits of fire-heated it. And what happened to Miss Chicken?
She was knocked out. While she fainted, the spirits of ether entered her heart. Who said Spirits were innocent? These spirits, which all along coveted my body, were now having fun with the Angel’s mind.
”N-No! Stop it! Stop it!”
Clank!
She threw the Magic Sword and grabbed her head with both hands. Was she being seized by some bad memories? It wasn’t my business.
Grip!
The desert sand swallowed the Angel, but the giant Kang Han Soo’s battle wasn’t over yet.
”How can an elementary school student have such power— Kuuk?!”
Bam!
He stepped on the guy with his huge foot. I don’t know where he disappeared to, but I will finish this battle.
Swish!
The student council guy could only withstand the heavy blow thanks to his Sword Mastery (Z) and Divinity. But for the giant Kang Han Soo, it was just a scratch.
That was also a simple principle. Suppose that there was a 1m sword that could cut anything, even a dimension. Then, could you cut a planet with it? I didn’t know about the Fantasy world, but the Earth’s diameter was roughly 12,700km, and the highest mountain, Everest, was about 9km(8,848m). You would have to swing more than a thousand times to cut through the planet.
This was the same situation.
Pujik!
He ignored the scratch on his heel and stepped on the guy again.”I am not an enemy, but a student council member-kha?!”
”Ha! If you’re on the student council, then I’m the principal.”
He imitated a senior, whom I must respect. But the Hero of the wild fantasy world with twenty-six years of experience wouldn’t believe such a lie.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
To stop him from lying, the giant Kang Han Soo continued to stomp on him. It wasn’t just my opinion; I had evidence.
“The elder, whom I must respect, cannot be such a weakling.”
“..”
This was the most obvious piece of evidence. If this was a student council member who had completed the intermediate course, he should be stronger than someone who had been stuck in the beginner course for over two decades. So this guy was not my senior!
Wasn’t it logical? The only payment for trying to deceive a just Hero was punishment. After a while..
Level 3460 → Level 3524
My level had risen once again. I had grown, but it was difficult to expect any huge growth after killing some weakling.
”..Ah! Now is not the time for that.”
If they brought me back now, I would need to seal the Black Box. Therefore, I needed to quickly figure out the new skills. I went over the Status again.
?Race: Natural Human
? Level: 3524
? Specialization: Demon Lord (Hero → Level ↓)
? Skills: Giftedness (ZZ), Divinity (Z), Dark Energy (Z), Spirit (MAX), Courage (MAX), Blessing (MAX), Mass Murder (MAX), Invention (MAX), Chaos (MAX), Destruction (MAX), Fortitude (MAX), Physical Strength (MAX), Endurance (MAX), Agility (MAX), Competition (MAX), Five Senses (MAX), Sword Mastery (MAX), Recklessness (MAX), Flight (MAX), Hardness (MAX), Mock (MAX) ..
? Condition: Holy Sword, Saint, Magic Sword
There were many candidates to use. I knew from when I increased Endowment ZZ that it was too difficult to raise Divinity or Dark Energy to the ZZ rank. Then I need to choose some other skill that had reached the MAX rank. But what should I choose?
It didn’t take long to think because there were skills I had been thinking about for a long time.
Fabrication (MAX), Spirit (MAX).
I was thinking of choosing one of them. Spirit (MAX) easily reached the limit, and now I thought about taking it seriously. There were many overlapping and similar effects with my race, but that didn’t bother me much. Repeated effects amplified, after all.
What about Fabrication (MAX)? I put much more effort into improving this skill.
? Type: Skill
? Title: Fabrication
? Rank: MAX (0%)
? Z: Appeal above God.
? SSS: Pretend to be part of a family.
? SS: Pretend to be a lover.
? S: Pretend to be a friend.
? A: Pretend to be a witness.
? B: Win the appeal of a family.
? C: Win the appeal of loved ones.
? D: Win the appeal of friends.
? E: Win the appeal of witnesses.
? F: Lie becomes believable.
Win the appeal of God. It was a vague explanation, but the words of God in the fantasy world were orders. And so, my beliefs would be stronger than those commands? It was certainly attractive, but if I was going to defeat the Demon Lord Pedonar and graduate, there was no need to quarrel with God. Although someday.. if I had to..
I put the Fabrication aside and chose Spirit. I left behind a few important skills and donated the rest to overcome the limit. I left some important skills, but I had used them all to fill up the mastery, even though it went beyond the limit. They wouldn’t let me use these skills anyway. Therefore..
? Type: Skill
? Name: Spirit
? Rank: Z (8%)
? ZZ: Reincarnate someone as a spirit.
? Z: Reincarnate as a spirit.
? SSS: Friendship with spirits of all attributes.
? SS: Friendship with the Spirits of four attributes.
? S: Friendship with the spirits of three attributes.
? A: Friendship with the spirits of two attributes.
? B Friendship with the spirit of one attribute.
? C: Understanding the language of spirits.
? D: Ability to touch spirit bodies.
? E: Ability to see the shape of spirits.
? F: Ability to hear the voice of spirits.
The skill Spirit had become transcendental. I was interested in the Z-rank effect, which is why I had chosen Spirit over Fabrication. Reincarnation as a spirit. This meant that I could change my race, which only the God of the fantasy world could normally do.
That was why I chose it. It was at this moment..
Poof! Poof! Poof! Poof! Poof!
The spirits living here, competing with each other, flew up to me. And they began to sexually harass me. They did all sorts of perverted things. For example, they touched sensitive spots and sniffed me. I was going to rebuke them for it, but..
”Again?”
My eyelids became heavy, and irresistible drowsiness rolled over me. I was going to resist, but it was impossible.
Flop.
I fell into a deep sleep under the onslaught of foul spirits.
*
When I woke up, I felt relief. While I was sleeping, I could have been killed, but here I was. Still alive.
I opened my eyes.”Hmm..did I come back?”
It was at a bar in the capital of the Holy Kingdom, but it was different from what was in my memory. In the bar, not only was there no bartender but not a single guest, and trees had broken through the roof to reach outside.
There were five such trees. Vines crawled through the wooden floor in different directions, and green moss formed on the furniture. Everything looked like it had long been abandoned. And me?
“It seems like I slept for a long time..”
I was leaning against a sandpile that seemed to have come from the gym. Nothing seemed to have happened to my body. What about the Status?
? Race: Natural Spirit
? Level: 1
? Specialization: Hero (Experience 500%)
? Skills: ■ ■ (S), Interpretation (A)
? Condition: Holy Sword
There were no major changes to my body except that my skin was bright. But my race had changed, and now I am a spirit. Did only my race attribute change? I checked immediately.
? Type: Race
? Name: Natural Spirit
? Rank: Unique
? Ability 1: Control experience points
? Ability 2: Assign spirits
? Feature 1: Receives the love of spirits.
? Feature 2: Receives the patronage of nature.
? Feature 3: Receives energy from the universe.
? Race 1: Excellent adaptability.
? Race 2: Specializes in one attribute.
The number of abilities had decreased, but only since the previous three abilities had merged into one with a higher authority. There was also one new unique attribute.
”Assign spirits?”
I didn’t understand what this meant. However, now wasn’t the time to think about it. After all, if the race had changed to Spirit, I should have first checked it. I got goosebumps as I looked in my pants.
Everything was in place.
”Phew! I was really scared!”
Having changed my race, I didn’t think about the side effects or disadvantages. What if it disappeared for good? It was scary to even think about it. Then..
Pong!
Nearby appeared the thin hand of a girl. I, without suspecting it, was lying here with some unfamiliar girl. But who was this?
”Oh? Is that Miss Chicken? Are you alive?”
The girl was the Old Angel. I thought she died from being buried in the sand, but she managed to survive. However, she returned in her original form.
”Oh..what is this..hmm?!”
historical
As if fighting a headache, she rubbed her temples, but when she saw me, she trembled. And after realizing that she was naked, she tried to cover herself with wings, bending her body forward.
”The Angel’s wings don’t seem to be appearing?”
”What? Why?”
Unlike the confused Angel, I knew the answer after I saw her changed Status.
? Race: Old Spirit
? Level: 999+
? Specialization: Paladin (Divinity = Blessing ↑)
? Skills: Divinity (Z), Blessing (Z), Sword Mastery (Z), Flying (Z), Taming (MAX) ..
? Condition: Submission, Embarrassment
There I discovered something interesting.
”Miss Chicken. Call me Master.”
“My lord is only—Master. Huh?!”
”Again.”
”Master. What’s happening?!”
I tried to give her another order, which caused Miss Chicken to panic, but she obediently laid down in a seductive position.
”Ah! So it meant that?”
Assign spirit. I think I figured out what this ability is. Anyway..
Slap!
I decided to think about it after checking if my body was functioning normally after the race change. Was there anything more important in the world than this?
If something were wrong, my mom simply wouldn’t forgive me, and I would face her tennis racket.
