Chapter 122: (1)
[Kaiyan! A new skill has been created!! To think that a skill could be created through a random skill!!]
It had only been a few days since Kaiyan felt disappointed when he first read about the random skill, never imagining it could yield such a beneficial skill.
If I meet that being again No, if I meet him again, Id like to gift him a toy or something.
Everything that mysterious being had given him turned out to be beneficial. This made Kaiyan wonder if, as he had guessed, that being could indeed be a god. That would explain why Rieka couldnt speak carelessly about it.
Growl!
Sigh Its too early to be satisfied.
Although the desired Fistfighting skill had been created, dozens of rock monsters remained.
The thought of using his fists against these monsters to possibly elevate the skills grade made his eyes sparkle with anticipation.
My combat sense has evolved significantly since I first wielded a sword.
The power Kaiyan could unleash with his fists against the rock monsters was something beyond what a mere beginners Fistfighting skill could achieve. This was possible due to his high attributes and refined combat senses.
Growl!
Haaap!
Leaping towards a rock monster that opened its mouth to devour him, Kaiyan thrust his fist forward.
Crack!
Growl!
The rock monsters jaw shattered with a single punch, and it staggered back in pain, letting out a cry. Taking advantage of the moment, Kaiyan lowered his stance and leaped again.
Pavavak!
Huuup!
Inhaling deeply, he added his combat senses to the instinctive guidance of the Fistfighting skill and quickly aimed his fist at the exposed weakness on the monsters face.
Shlaack-
His fist, moving as swiftly as if performing a piercing strike, crashed into the monster.
Crack!
The precise hit shattered the monsters face, causing it to collapse onto the ground.
Kooong!
Definitely different from when I had the random skill.
The Fistfighting skill drawn from the random skill didnt seem to change much about how he swung his fists. It didnt seem to affect the skills experience.
However, the newly created Fistfighting skill was different. Every punch thrown contributed to the skills experience, enhancing it towards a more potent Fistfighting ability. The more he used it, the stronger his attack techniques became.
Thats precisely the advantage of being a player.
To think hed find such enjoyment in using his fists, which he only used as a precaution against unforeseen situations.
Alright, lets keep up this momentum Ah!
[Kaiyan, whats wrong?]
Just as he was about to deal with the remaining rock monsters, Kaiyan remembered he hadnt used a certain skill yet.
Now that I think about it I havent used that skill yet, not just items.
[If its a skill Ah! Steady Step?]
Steady Step. A skill he hadnt used yet because its description was too strange.
Honestly, who would use a skill that tells you not to rely on your luck and just walk? Especially when he acquired the skill, he was in the middle of fighting the enlarged Canien. A single wrong hit could have been fatal.
Hmm Maybe its best to try it now?
[Wouldnt now be the perfect time? What if you use it in some weird place later and get hurt!]
The rock monsters initially charged with their numbers, but now, perhaps frightened, the survivors hesitated and backed off. Even if something strange happened due to using the skill, it wouldnt be a problem.
Alright! Steady Step!
Approaching the rock monsters, Kaiyan activated the Steady Step skill.
Huh?
[Whats wrong?]
My body
Kaiyan found himself slowly taking steps towards the rock monsters. Just a bit more, and hed be within their attack range. Yet,
I cant move.
[What? You are moving, though?]
No I mean, Im not the one moving.
This is insane.
From the moment he activated the skill, he lost control over his body, or more precisely, his feet.
So, not avoiding it meant I literally couldnt avoid it?
Such a ludicrous situation.
As Kaiyan stood baffled by the absurdity, he walked into the monsters attack range, and one of them lunged its massive body at him. If things continued this way, hed be helplessly crushed by the rock.
Growl!
Damn it! Rieka, stay back!
[Okay! I got it!]
Any gratitude Kaiyan felt towards the presumed god vanished as he cursed out loud.
If that being was watching him now, they would know what was happening. What if he had accidentally used this skill while fighting Canien?
Half resigned to being hit, Kaiyan covered his head with his hands and closed his eyes.
Kooong!
Huh?
A heavy noise accompanied the shaking ground.
But Kaiyan felt no pain. Opening his eyes slightly, he saw,
Growl?
What?
The rock monster, looking more confused than Kaiyan, had fallen towards the ground in front of him and was struggling to get up.
He had done nothing but walk, yet the monster had attacked the wrong spot.
Idiot.
Kaiyan inwardly mocked the rock monsters stupidity, but his expression quickly soured.
Growl!
I wasnt laughing.
Perhaps taking his inner mockery as an offense, the rock monster, along with its kin, lunged at him again. Kaiyan could sense two from behind and four in front through his instincts.
Closing his eyes in anticipation of the worst, he braced for impact.
Kooong! Crack!
The noise was louder than before, followed by the sound of something breaking.
[Kaiyan! These creatures are weird! Theyre hitting each other!]
What?
At Riekas voice, Kaiyan opened his eyes to see the monsters indeed colliding with each other. Their immense weight prevented them from managing their momentum, resulting in several rock monsters crumbling apart.
As they lay unable to get up, surrounded by Kaiyan, they screamed in pain.
Whats going on Oh! I can move again!
In the midst of the confusion, Kaiyan finally felt control return to his feet. Testing with a step, he found he could move freely again.
