Chapter ③ [Smart Monster]

"Yawn..."

...it looks like I actually slept well last night. I must have felt relieved making a new friend. Speaking of, it looks like Teara actually has intelligence, if surrounding someone to warm them up is what you call intelligent...

"Ah, you're so soft!"

All of this felt like a dream, but when I woke up, it was reality. I guess I already knew that, but it's quite hard to believe that...

I'm a monster.

I would stretch my body after waking up, but...

I'm immobile.

It's kinda disgusting, really. Why would someone create a body so unfit for survival and then plop a High Schooler into it! To give a chance at a new life? Not likely. Sick entertainment? Most probably.

No! Instead of loathing whoever put me in this situation, I should actually do something to change it! I mean, I'm definitely not gonna stay immobile forever. Yeah! I will train and become strong! But...

"How do I do that again..?"

*Timeskip*

I decided to train my "movement" skills in order to actually explore where I am. Teara actually helped, which is weird cause you'd think a plant couldn't move, but it can! Teara acted as a wedge in order to help me roll better, while also pushing me! With their help, I was able to get to『Rolling LV6』and『Hopping LV5』very quickly. Of course, some passive skills like『Rationality LV3』『Concentration LV3』『Bodily Movement LV6』and『Cultivation LV2』levelled up naturally too. And finally, I was appraising everything I saw until my "Appraisal" levelled up, but even after it reached level 4, it only showed me my HP, MP and SP. It wasn't even in numerical form, just coloured bars!

『Small Unique Debea　LV2　No name』

『HP Bar』

『MP Bar』

『SP Bar』

『SP Bar』

I mean... What is this?! Garbage! Trash! That's what it is! I want a refund!

《Skill proficiency reached. Skill 『Appraisal LV4』 has became 『Appraisal LV5』》

Oh? Is this a bribe or a consolation prize? If this level of "Appraisal" still sucks, I'm getting that refund, you hear me!

『Small Unique Debea　LV2　No name

　Status: Weak』

『HP Bar』

『MP Bar』

『SP Bar』

『SP Bar』

...is this a challenge? I'm getting stronger with what I have, but you still make fun of me?! Fine, I get it!

I just won't use "Appraisal" anymore! Only under dire circumstances will it be used! No more screen time for you, "Appraisal"!

《Skill proficiency reached. Skill 『Appraisal LV5』 has became 『Sad』》

Shatup! You brought this on yourself! Don't try to act sad...

Now that that disappointment is out of the way, I've started to notice something about my skills growth. They all level up very fast, which I don't think is normal. Like, the first time I fell from a high place and hurt myself, I got『Impact Resistance LV1』pretty much instantly. Also, when it came to the Black Demon Moss that I ate, I definitely wasn't supposed to survive or level up the resistances so quickly. This brings me to the conclusion that I have increased growth when it comes to skills!
