My Skill Creation System

After defeating a pack of wolves, Nathan looked for a safe place to rest.

"Master Nathan, See. you have 30 stat points available. Why don't you use them all?"

"I can still overcome my opponents with the current stats I have. And I'm also still thinking about the best stat distribution strategy for the next Class I'm about to take."

Nathan continued his journey after feeling well rested.

He stopped walking and pulled over between the trees, his body bent over, trying to find the whereabouts of the monsters he had detected using his skills.

There was another pack of wolves who, this time, had also noticed his presence. But he still stayed where he was, waiting for them to approach instead of immediately bringing the fight to them.

[Route Quests][+]

Nathan brought up the Skill Creation System screen once more.

"To think that my skill points have increased this much."

"Right, yes… You can create lots of interesting skills with those skill points."

"Yes, I know. But I deliberately delayed until I could make a skill with a higher tier. At least until I reach level 50 and can use tier 2 skills. At the same time, doing this means that I would have many options if I need an immediate upgrade at a critical moment."

"Hummu… Hummu… I totally agree with your decision."

Luna floated away when Nathan suddenly stood up and jumped out.

Several wolves have reached his position. They growled, showing their teeth at him.

Nathan twirled his two swords, and then stood ready to fight.

"Are you guys going to attack first, or are you going to allow me to do it first?"

The wolves remained silent and growled at him. There were four of them.

"Okay then."

"Accel!"

Nathan immediately shot off, and the monster he was attacking didn't have time to dodge when the two swords he was holding nimbly and dexterously slashed through its body.

[You've killed Night Wolf Lv. 6]

[You received 10 experience]

[Exp: 176/294]

"I hate it. The experience I gained is too low!"

The other three wolf monsters ran to attack him. But Nathan managed to dodge them all.

With a quick maneuver, he turned around and dealt an attack on the three of them at once.

SLASH!

He missed.

Nathan jumped quickly and thrust his sword.

Another monster ran towards him, but again he managed to dodge their attack.

He kicked his feet and threw slashes with his two swords at the other wolves.

After a few minutes, Nathan ended the fight with the four carcasses of the wolves lying helplessly on the ground.

[Level: Unranked Lv. 12]

[Exp: 227/294]

"Say, Luna, what happens if the monster I killed is far below me in terms of level?"

Luna floated over to him, who was busy cleaving his victim's body, and took the Monster Cores from them.

"You won't gain any experience if the monster is too far from your level."

"Is that true? Looks like I'll have to find a dungeon with a higher level than this soon. I think my progress is getting slower. At this leveling speed, I'm not sure how long it will take me to reach level 50." Nathan said with a sigh.

***

Nathan continued his hunt that night. He managed to kill several other monsters and ended up getting a level up.

[Level: Unranked Lv. 13]

[Exp: 122/324]

[You received 6 stat points]

[You received 100 skill points]

"I have enough stat points to make me very strong in no time." He grinned at the reward he got.

[Nathan Gardner]

[Greed Meter: 54%]

"He he he he…." Nathan smiled broadly, showing his teeth that reflected the moonlight that night.

After walking for some time, he stopped as if he was at the edge of the forest. Or rather, he was now dealing with an open space with sparse trees.

Not far from him, Nathan could clearly see a wolf sleeping among the rocks.

Nathan was shocked when he found the size of the wolf two to three times larger than the other wolves.

"Boss?"

[Elite Guardian Night Wolf Lv. 23]

"Elite monster?"

"Master Nathan…" Luna floated right beside him and seemed to whisper.

"This monster is Elite grade, one grade above Rare. And this is the hidden boss I was referring to."

"Hidden boss? Are you sure?"

"Hummu hummu… Because If he's the boss of the dungeon, there should be a word 'boss' written in his name, isn't it?"

"I see."

[Nathan Gardner]

[Greed Meter: 66%]

Nathan was still hiding behind the trees.

"I have to find a way to attack the monster quietly. Because I can't directly deal with it at such a high level."

[Nathan Gardner]

[Greed Meter: 73%]

Nathan's eyes immediately brightened, and a broad smile appeared.

"Master Nathan, you have to be careful. Elite monsters have a much higher difficulty level than those below them."

"Yes, I know. I'm not that careless."

[Nathan Gardner]

[Greed Meter: 76%]

"Master Nathan, I can see your greed meter. If the number exceeds 90%, it will be hazardous. You should prepare a strategy or better retreat for now." Luna looked panicked.

"Will he die with one hit? How many Magic stats do I have right now?"

[Magic: 21]

[…]

[Stat Points: 36]

"Hmmm, 21. With 21 Magic stats, I killed a level 17 Rare Swarm Rat Warrior with one hit. And with the additional stat points I have, I should be able to do much damage to that wolf with a single hit using Energy Blast."

[Nathan Gardner]

[Greed Meter: 81%]

Nathan's heart beat faster and faster. He really felt a powerful urge to kill the hidden boss immediately.

"I hate this blessing of greed. This makes it difficult for me to think clearly. But I really wanted the reward that the monster would likely give. Tell me, Luna, do you have any suggestions for me?"

"Uhhh..." Luna showed a stiff face. "If you spent all those stat points into Magic, there's a good chance you can finish the monster with one hit. But are you sure you want to use it for Magic? Don't you intend to choose the Tanker or Assassin class?"

Nathan again thought about the plan he would take. He couldn't take careless steps.

[Nathan Gardner]

[Greed Meter: 86%]

"Oh shit, I hate it."

Nathan tightly gripped his two swords.

"Tell me, Luna, if I use these stat points for Magic, are there any class options I can take after that?"

"Magic Swordsman. You can use magic power and combine it with your sword fighting skills."

"Seemed a good idea. In that case, that option doesn't look bad to me either. Okay, Luna, I decided to use my 29 stat points for Magic."

[29 Stat Points -> Magic]

[…]

[Strength: 30]

[Dexterity: 20]

[Agility: 20]

[Magic: 50]

[Constitution: 20]

[Stamina: 40]

[…]

Luna chuckled, "An even number again."

[Nathan Gardner]

[Greed Meter: 93%]

Nathan instantly felt a burst of energy in his heart. A stronger vortex of energy than before seemed to spread throughout his body.

The wolf monster in the distance raised its head. He was awake from the attack aura about to come at him.

"Accel! Accel! Accel!"

Nathan shot from behind the trees. He ran fast and straight at his opponent.

Agh-Whooooooooo

The monster just stood up and raised its head in the air. He howled loudly, a howl that seemed to instantly wake up the entire forest.

"Berserker Form!"

Nathan felt another weird thing as his body physically also underwent changes.

"ENERGY BLAST!!!!"

Nathan shot through the air and threw a slash with his two swords. From the two swords were thrown energy beams in the form of two crescent moons that rested on each other in an X shape.

The two energy slashes swiftly hit the body of the huge wolf monster earlier. The energy slash also shattered the huge pile of rocks behind the monster.

"Accel!"

The monster fell to the ground with severe injuries all over its body.

Nathan shot forward, realizing that the monster was still not dead after the attack he gave.

"There is no time to hesitate! I have to do this while it is still in a weak state!"

Nathan stood before the monster and threw slashes with his swords wildly.

He slashed the sword continuously until the wolf fell to the ground.

Nathan stabbed his two swords at the wolf's head and confirmed that the monster had lost its life.

[You've killed Elite Guardian Night Wolf Lv. 23]

[Exp: 77/433]

Nathan laughed happily when he managed to defeat the monster. But his body felt stiff, and he realized what had happened to him when he saw the status on his bracelet.

[Blue Bar (Mana): 20%]

[Green Bar (Energy): 20%]

[Yellow Bar (Will Power): 30%]

There was another strange thing that happened. The wolf seemed to release white energy from its body and slowly devoured itself.

"Luna, what happened?"

Luna immediately floated up to him. She watched the same thing as him with a gaping face, looking shocked.

"Master Nathan... This is truly an amazing thing! You really are very lucky tonight!!!"

Nathan turned to Luna, increasingly filled with questions at her statement.

"What do you mean?"
