Volume 1 - CH 22

Chapter 1-22. Clay Carp

No matter where angle I look at myself, it just a carp.

The color is white and dull.

The strength of the Rain Kings has been lost, but instead, I can feel that something powerful from the inside runs through the whole body.

I don't know what this is ... but let's check the status for now.

===============

Name: Ouren

Race: Clay Carp

LV: 1/25

HP: 35/35

MP: 45/50

Attack power: 60

Defense: 54

Magical power: 15

Agility: 30

-Special skills-

[Voice of Heaven] [Rare Species Benefits]

-Skill-

[Luminous] [Strengthening ] [Herculean Jaw]

[Water flow manipulation] [Create Clay] [Soil Purification] [Absorption]

-Resistance-

[Dazzle] [Strong Acid] [Exposive] [Pollution]

===============

Whoa! I got [Absorption]!

Recovery skill that can recover physical strength by consuming MP!

I never thought I could get it here.

Well, the new skills I got this time are "Create Clay", "Soil Purification", and "Absorption".

And are the newly acquired resistances "explosion" and "pollution"?

It's a new skill, so I'm worried about all of them, but the one I'm most worried about is the resistance "pollution".

It's a resistance that the body doesn't rot anyway, but ... let's check it for the time being.

===============

-pollution-

The body does not rot. Also effective for illness.

===============

Yes. My guess was right.

It's a wonderful resistance skill that you can't get sick just by having this, but ... if it categorized as resistance it means there may be enemies whose attack can polluting your body sysem.

This can be applied for both "explosion" and "strong acid".

In fact, under such an attack, I was able to obtain the resistant skill "strong acid".

I can tell you, it is not strange that there are enemies who not only have a blasting skills but also corruption skills and sickness skills.

I will go ashore in the near future.

The chances of having an enemy with terrifying skills on the land should be far greater than in the river.

I probaly can't survive longer if I don't strengthening my mind.

... I don't want to die again.

Well, I'll try my best whatever happenned in the future after I go ashore.

Alright, let's check my new acquired skills before regroup with Reizen.

The skill "absorption" and the resistance "explosion" can be understood from it's name, and since I have seen it once, I do not need to reconfirm it.

===============

-Create Clay-

You can create what you want using soil and clay.

===============

-Soil Purification-

Can purify polluted land. The purification range is determined by the amount of MP used.

===============

Oooh! The heck with this Create Clay! It seems very convenient!

Seems like it have a big cost to use this skill

It seems that I can make a pot with this. Maybe I can even build a house?

But this ... I don't think it can be used underwater ... because it's clay or soil, right?

It's not hard like rock, probably its going to melt away.

I know it because I tried using it, but I couldn't use it as expected.

Things that look like soil are gathering, but they have crumbled and disappeared.

This also applied for clay.

Hey Clay Carp ... What do you have this ability for ...?

You're just a clay discoverer, aren't you?

This is unlikely to be usable until I goes up to the land.

So, soil purification ... Is it necessary for such a beautiful river?

Or does Clay Carp have that ability to live in dirty places?

Now that I think about it again, most carp are living in the muddy water.

Well, let's use it for the time being.

I tried using it, but there was no change.

I don't even know if it was activated because there are no effects.

MP did not decrease either.

Hmm ... I don't know.

It seems that it is not possible to synthesize each other with skills this time.

Create Clay seems to be practical and I want to leave it as it is for the time being.

Soil purification ... Well, the time will come when it can be used for something.

Let's leave it at that.

By the way, after confirming the skill, it is possible to synthesize it, but ... I wonder ... I don't really want to synthesize them.

It's possible to synthesize it, but on the contrary, I feel the result is not plausible..

…… By the way, I've gained a lot of skills that are stronger than before they were synthesized, but can they be weakened after synthesized?

Alright, let's ask if I am interested with this topic.

Heavenly Voice, does skill synthesis make your skills weaker than before?

[…………]

What a Carp, it seems my question is not possible to answer.

Then, threw it all together and tell me about skill synthesis!

I just want to see the important thing about synth skill! Dear god!

[Skill synthesis. You can create new skills by combining multiple skills. Combining skills and skills will result in stronger skills, and combining resistance and resistance will result in stronger resistance. However, be aware that if the skill you are synthesizing is incompatible, it can be much weaker than the original skill. In addition, when creating a new skill / resistance by combining skills and resistance, a strong skill will not be created unless it is compatible.]

...... in other word, its a gambling.

But now I know. All of my synth skills are compatible.

The skills I used when I made "Fangtooth" were "Large mouth" and "Partial Body Strengthening (sharp)".

I think these two were a good match.

Thanks to synth skill, that was become my main weapon.

"Strengthening " is a combination of only "Partial Body Strengthening (hard)" and the one that has the effect of correcting due to the weather, I think it is good match?

As expected, if I combine "Luminous" and "large mouth", it will be a carp skill.

Pecker in the mouth seems to be interesting, but it is also interesting that the teeth shine when laughing.

NO, I don't have any intention to make a joke skill!

Well, let's not synthesize this time.

I'd like to combine resistance and skill, but the skill is a little ... I don't think it's very good.

I don't want to make strange skills.

Alright! My skill arrangement ends here!

Let's see Reizen…….

Looking at Reizen, it seemed that he was still doing something.

Perhaps he organizing the newly acquired skills.

The proof is, he is evolving now.

This time it's my turn to wait.
