Skill Creation in the Fantasy World

Chapter 51: Rank 2 Battle.

Felix stopped his carnage and gaped at the battle between the two Rank 2 monsters.

Their fight had suddenly reached its peak with both of them showing anger at each other.

The big ape was furious at the goblins who had invaded their home and killed many members of its tribe, while the huge goblin was angry at its partner, the mage who had failed to do as they had planned and thus unleashed all of its wrath on the ape.

Wind crashed in the surroundings from their powerful attacks, making the spectators squint their eyes for a better look.

There were about a dozen other monsters left, who had no strength to fight anymore and were only waiting for their leaders to end the battle hopefully making them win.

Felix ran his eyes over them and shrugged his shoulder not wanting to waste more skill points.

'Well, nothing is more expensive than some missed skill points....'

He swam underground and continued to move around the area, stealing the lives of the monsters who had no knowledge of their predator.

Leaving some of his attention toward the two monsters, he collected 60 more skill points with 6 of his spikes every minute.

[You have killed a being higher than your own rank.]

[You have gained 10 skill points.]

[You have killed a being higher than your own rank.]

Taking advantage of the spectacular scene on the battlefield which stole their focus, he harvested the monster's lives until a few minutes later there were no spectators left except for him.

In the end with his head out from the ground surrounded by the corpses, his eyes finally focused deeply on their battle and noticed the reason behind their power.

'So they were using aura in their attacks...'

The big ape's fists and the goblin's club glowed a dim color of white every time they attacked. It was the result of applying aura in their fists and weapons, and obviously, they could not manifest it out from their bodies.

Red eyes and twisted expressions were etched on both of their faces as they crazily attacked one another without glancing around them.

After some time, the goblin landed a decisive hit on the ape's head with its club, and its wooden weapon finally broke apart.

But the attack had damaged the ape a lot, upon which the goblin didn't ruin the chance, and took out its hidden knife from under its cloth before stabbing it into the ape's chest.

The knife penetrated deeply making the ape fall on its back as it struggled to move.

'Chance!'

Felix's eyes lit up when he noticed the ape fall down on the ground.

He quickly swam underground and moved ahead before using his skill.

'Earth Spike!'

Instead of one, he had used three spikes this time which impaled the fallen ape's back from underground.

The ape was already feeling helpless when a knife was stabbed into it but before it could try to get up, three sharp objects plunged into its back with one of them reaching just above its butt.

[Race: Human]

[Age: 15]

[Sex: Male]

[Mage Cultivation: Rank 0]

[Warrior Cultivation: Rank 0]

[Talent: ★★ ]

[State: A better body but there's still a place for growth.]

[Skills: Silent Steps, Flashback, Earth Swimming, Ratio Technique, Parabolic Hearing, Earth Spikes.]

[Skill Points: 620.]

His eyes read the status information before arriving at the skill points.

'Nice! With these many points, I can create some strong skills.'

Clenching his fists in joy, he continued to run in the forest moving toward the city.

*****

Back at the battlefield.

Several monsters gathered and excitedly looked at the dead corpses before coming closer and feasting upon them.

It was rare for such a big battle to occur in the forest, so the monsters didn't waste the opportunity to fill their stomach with dead bodies. They distanced themselves from each other but still growled when another one came near to them.

Suddenly, they felt a strong pressure descend in the area as a figure wearing blood-red robes appeared on the scene.

It was not walking on the ground but instead floated a bit above the earth. The figure had its face covered with the hood of the robe but the monsters could still see those greyish eyes that made them terrified to not even make a move.

Arriving at the middle of the scene, the figure glanced around before speaking in a low cracky voice.

"Ahh~ The delicious smell of blood...."

The figure swayed a bit while rubbing its shoulders but then turned serious the next moment as a dark presence revolved around it.

"Too bad I came a bit late, I wanted to see the one who ruined the plans of the great one...Moreover, that goblin proved itself to be weak so it should be better used for the ritual."

Shaking its head, the figure raised its head and stared above at the slowly rising moons.

"No matter what, our plans won't change. This world will need a new ruler and we shall be the ones to sit at the top...."

Its words seemed to be molded with power as the monsters couldn't handle the sheer pressure the figure was releasing and fainted in their spots.

"Let's go, we have a lot of work to do...."

The enigmatic figure uttered the words to itself, ascending weightlessly into the air before abruptly vanishing at breakneck speed, leaving behind not a single trace of its presence.
