Chapter 104 A Monster Unleashed 6



Hiro leaped down towards an unsuspecting wolf, maybe because of his stats only the Alpha or the biggest wolf of the pack saw him. That all changed as he fell, however.

Instantaneously the other wolves looked at him the moment he got within 100 meters of them. The tree he leaped from dwarfed redwoods in terms of height, so he came from a branch 150 meters above the ground.

However, Hiro suddenly gained a burst of speed and charged towards one of the closest wolves.

"[Straight Pierce]!"

The wolves were surprised, normally in their territory, no one dared to take them head-on. Their large sizes and ferocious natures deterred other animals from trespassing.

And now a suicidal man came at them with a skill. The wolves had more than a moderate amount of INT, so naturally, they knew the nuances of using skills.

This person could only be a lunatic who seeks death concluded the rest of the wolves. The one Hiro was aiming for similarly charged and jump to bite Hiro as a counterattack.

Unfortunately for the wolf. Hiro suddenly slowed down and change directions abruptly. Like he kicked something mid-air.

"[Skill Cancel]…Blegh."

Hiro suddenly changed directions as he kicked a spirit foothold. Due to invoking skill cancel, the man vomited blood in frightening amounts.

Unknown to the wolves Hiro never wasted even a second of his time. While waiting for them the reincarnator tried to recreate as many of his skills as possible.

As a benefit of being self-taught, most if not all of Hiro's skills came from experience. With [Mana Armor] and [Tracking] as the only exceptions.

He gained [Mana Molding] [C], [Masochism] [C], [Toughness] [D], [Tactics] [D], Straight Pierce [D], [Mana Armor] [D], and [Tracking] [D]. Recreating how he got them allowed him to relearn his original Active secondary skills and passives.

As for the last two Hiro recreated them by invoking memories of how Calibers revolved around his body. However, due to his INT, he believed it should be possible and although it took more than a couple of hours he eventually succeeded.

The ones he could not recreate were, [Spirit Sense] [C], [Square Cut] [D], [Sword Mastery] [C], and [Insanity] [E]. [Insanity] currently being his most urgent target. This skill in particular allowed him to gain control of the [Eternity Armament], thus relearning it ASAP was paramount.

With the reincarnator shifting his position the jumping wolf obviously missed and overshot Hiro. As Hiro jumped to the lower left, he got out of the attacking wolf and was now placed on his flank.

Normally it would be impossible to attack from this angle as Hiro being in midair needed to follow gravity and fall. But [Spirit Molding] gave Hiro a new dimension of movement.

Thus he created a foothold. Poured power into his leg as he used the small platform to charge the beast's side. "STRAIGHT PIERCE!"

Like an arrow fired from a bow, Hiro slammed into the beast's side and his two steak knives buried themselves into its flank. Normally such simple kitchen cutlery would break from attacking the hide of beasts.

But Hiro was no ordinary man. He was the heavenly sword after all his main skill granted him the ability to take on anything so long as he had a sword by his side.

Bloodline of Steel

Rank [SSS] Type: Passive Level 1

A legendary skill granted only to the Heavenly sword. Has four primary functions. Grants a massive damage bonus when equipped with sword-type weapons. And upgrades the Skill user's, bones and organs in durability. Scales with user levels.

When in combat, calibers can be used to boost the attributes of weapons. Lastly, the User gains intermediate mastery of any sword-type weapon used. Can be leveled to complete mastery with enough training.

Using Aura increases a weapon's hardness and durability

Using Spirit increases a weapon's increases the weapons attacking power.

Using Mana grants the weapon's increased range or even energy projectiles.

Combinations of the three exhibits new possibilities, abilities are restricted to only sword-class weapons.

_________________

While it seemed OP, it actually was not, at least not for his current situation. Knives were not counted among sword class weapons. But that reality only mattered if one had no imagination.

In the hours of training Hiro did on top of the trees, the notion of why he only restricted himself to footholds came knocking in. If his skill allowed the ability to create objects from pure spirit. Why not just make a weapon or armor for it?

His efforts went nowhere as the biggest requirement turned out to be mental imagery. Hiro knew nothing about materials, composites, or the like. Thus he could only create one material per object such as stone for the footholds and simply iron for the merry-go-round.

Creating the nuances of a weapon needed understanding of the thing one needed to create. For this reason, he also could not craft armor. His salvation came in changing his mindset.

If creating was out of the question, would enhancement be more practical? He had steak knives, and understanding of materials and their construction came easy as he could feel it with his hands. Why not just make simple modifications?

Turn the knife into a short sword. That became the goal. Extend the blade, and reinforce the metal to four or five times its mass. You would then have a makeshift jungle knife.

Wasting almost 300 points in calibers finally allowed Hiro to have the system recognize his knives as swords. Now that he had swords. This monster would become like fish out of water. And the wolves would find out in the worse way possible.

Hiro then dumped a bot load of SP into the blades and forced them apart as he sliced the entire side of the wolf. While the pelt of wolves is known for being tough the underside is commonly thin in comparison.

The reincarnator attack came from below so his attack landed on the lower part of the wolf's chest or just the lowest point of the beast's rib cage. In his action of pushing the knives away from each other,

A large hole opened up on the wolf's flank, eventually, the animal's lower half of the beast's torso got separated from the rest of its body. The outpour of blood-drenched Hiro in a sanguine bath.

By the time Hiro and the wolf carcass fell. The rest of the wolves charged at him in retaliation. Hiro's skill [Reverie Beyond Hope] inspected each beast and created summarized profiles.

Unlike the rank [C] version [Reverie beyond hope] not only inspected targets but also summarized and assessed the combat targets for expedited access to information by the skill user. Yet Hiro didn't back away as it suggested.

- Alert: User in combat with Hostile faction. [Integrity of the Faithful] will now mark all targets… Nine targets have been marked. -

- Alert: Perfect Skill Synergy established, [Reverie beyond hope] now grants 50% Exp multiplier increase on all targets marked by [Integrity of the Faithful] per target eliminated within [Heart's Dogma] Kill window. -

Although they were named different, his limit skills behaved exactly the same. But the stat bonus were worlds apart. These skills work extremely well when faced with insurmountable odds. And together with Insanity they would allow the meekest of kittens to fight legions of wolves.

Yet none of that mattered to the Hiro drenched in blood. It was hard to tell who was the monster between him and the wolves. Like system users monsters with above 200 in INT gained the ability to assess enemies. And they all felt the overwhelming power increase of Hiro.

"I'm sorry but in order to ensure my survival and the lives of my family. I need to kill you all. Resent me all you want. This is the path I have chosen to take. And Nothing will be able to stop me."
