Chapter 90 Blocked Skills And A Faulty Plan
Shin was now trapped in the area. He couldn\'t get out of it.
Well, he entered it to find Aella in the first place so it was for some reason good, but since the humans had already exited the place, he was just getting delayed there since he didn\'t know how to get out of it!
"..."
\'I wonder if I can summon \'Him\' here...\', was what he asked himself.
He thought about summoning the dragon while being lost. Well, since he couldn\'t get out of that area, it was perhaps the best possible thing that he could do.
He didn\'t know that dragons or elves could navigate through such places, of course, it was possible for them because of their hypersensitivity to mana.
But that didn\'t mean that it was easy for them since the mana was spread through a wide area. it would turn to be a bit tough for them too!
He closed his eyes after deciding that and then used the skill in order to summon the dragon.
A moment after, a huge dragon appeared in front of him while roaring, at least that\'s how it should have been.
"What the-", when Shin opened his eyes, he found nothing more than the same white smoke-like fog surrounding him.
There was no sign of activation of any skill or any spell nor was there any summon around.
"No way..."
A notification popped up on his screen.
\'Ding\'
[ Skill \'Hymn Of The Dragons\' cannot be used ]
"..."
"What the heck?"
He was shocked and baffled to see such a message appearing on the screen, needless to say, it was weird and confused him.
"Why can\'t I use this skill?", he tried again and again but the same notification kept popping.
\'Ding\'
[ Skill \'Hymn Of The Dragons\' cannot be used ]
[ Skill \'Hymn Of The Dragons\' cannot be used ]
[ Skill \'Hymn Of The Dragons\' cannot be used ]
[ Skill \'Hymn Of The... ]
"..."
Shin was speechless because of this.
He could hardly imagine this happening because he had trusted that this skill would help him and save him from any danger that he faced!
"Is it only this skill or..."
Right after saying that, he tried to use some other skills to see if others were working perfectly or not.
\'Ding\'
[ Skill Dash cannot be used ]
[ Skill Transformation cannot be used ]
[ Skill Heal cannot be used ]
"I cannot use any of these skills?"
"Then what about those that I gained from Aella earlier...?"
[ Skill Wind Run cannot be used ]
And he couldn\'t use that either.
He was way too confused to think anything straight. He almost immediately took a look at his profile to see if he could actually use any other skill since he couldn\'t think of one.
And just when his profile was shown, he was completely shocked.

"The heck is this?"
"Why is my profile in this state?", he was shocked to see that.
All the numbers were replaced with numbers, at least most of them. Also, \'[ error ]\' appeared in front of almost all the skills.
Though there were a few exceptions, in total, one could say that all the skills were practically sealed off!
[ Dragon\'s Roar Lv.1 ]
[ Dragon\'s Aura Lv.2 ]
[ Gift Lv.??? ]
[ Ultimate Growth Lv.??? ]
"These are the only skills that don\'t have the error stats on them...", Shin observed.
"But does that mean I can use them?", indeed, that was the biggest question.
Just because there was no \'error\' word, he couldn\'t be assured that the skills worked perfectly fine.
He had to use them and check them only after that would he be convinced!
The place had so much mana, that the mana couldn\'t circulate! Because of that skills that depended on mana were practically useless!
That explained why even the wind mages or the wind-type monsters couldn\'t escape the area despite having wind spells!
It would be useless to have such spells, though they could blow mana away if one couldn\'t use them.
Dragons and Elves specialized in using mana. They were in fact one of the most gifted creatures who could manipulate mana with ease and professionally even without any effort!
Thus, they wouldn\'t be affected even by such high mana density, in fact, even if they would be affected, they would get used to it soon enough.
All of Shin\'s wind-type skills were sealed off, even the skill with the name \'God\' couldn\'t be used. Of course, that was because all of them depended on mana which could hardly circulate within Shin\'s body at the moment.
So, No circulation meant no activation of skills or spells!
That was why those skills were blocked in the first place, the only skills that required no mana or could be activated in excess mana were fine.
But the skills that were shown to him were something that he didn\'t need right now. What he actually wanted was a skill that could help him summon someone for help.
Of course, if navigation was working, he wouldn\'t have required to use the skill in the first place, so the system was to be blamed for everything.
In any case, he couldn\'t use the current skills because they were practically useless for now.
So he decided to think of an alternative.
"Hmm..."
"Is there really no way to escape this place?", he asked himself.
"..."
After thinking for a few seconds, he then thought about walking in just one direction.
"Ya, why don\'t I just walk in one direction?"
"That way, I wouldn\'t have to worry about which way to take..."
"Some or the other way I would be out of this area after which I would be able to use navigation!", was what he said.
That was a fantastic idea and it could actually work, but there was a small problem.
The obstacles that lied in his area were real objects!
If he were to walk in a straight path without taking any deviations, he would end up hitting a tree. When that happens, he would inevitably take a detour walk towards the side in order to pass the tree, and in that exact moment he would get lost again since the same tree and same parts of turning would appear again and again.
Well, he didn\'t realize the small fault in his plan and tried to follow that in order to escape the area.
He was able to walk for a minute or two without actually facing any problem when suddenly he was forced to stop, of course, the reason was a tree!
He then tried to take a detour or turn a bit only to find similar scenes everywhere. Unfortunately, he was lost again and had no idea about the direction in which he had been walking for a minute or so.
It was only after this that he realized that his plan wouldn\'t succeed.
"Tsk, then what should I do?", he was angry now because he was way too helpless!
"..."
