Ascender's Path: ORDEAL OF THE GODS

Chapter 10.

———Another twenty one days have passed. Digging all this time with an <Unbreakable Wooden Stick> has been fruitless. I've run out of stamina to dig anymore. I think I've finally reached my limit. I know that if I don't eat anything, I will die in a few days.

I couldn't think properly because of the starvation haunting me every hour. When I recalled this situation later on, I realized that this might have been the main reason I did such a silly thing.

"GYAHAHAHAHA! I don't know but If I don't eat at this rate, I will die! I would rather have a quick death than suffering such hell!!"

Currently, in my right hand, I was holding the frog that seemed to be enough for one mouthful.

This frog was an extremely type of poisonous animals—a animals that contains an extremely strong poison capable of killing a dragon in just a moment and even now it let out an enormous amount of plasma. Moreover, this fucking frog had extreme nutritional value.

A poisonous frog capable of instantly killing a dragon. If I ate this, I knew I'd die. Therefore, I drank elixir over and over again till my stomach was full of it. And then, I swallowed the extremely poisonous frog at my hand at once.

*Throb* *Throb*

Suddenly, an unimaginable pain of heat assailed my stomach. It felt as if magma had been poured into my stomach. My vision turned bright red with this uttermost and intense momentum.

<<You have meet all the acquisition condition to get poison resistance. You acquired skill— (Poison Resistance).>>

On the verge of passing out, I heard the voice of an robotic woman.

"I'm still… alive?"

My head and my body hurt like hell, yet I was still alive.

The headache and nausea disappeared as soon as I drank elixir. The main point was that I didn't feel hungry anymore.

The voice of the woman when I was about to pass out did say
<Weak Poison Resistance> right?

To figure out if that's really the truth, I tried appraising myself.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

・Weak Poison Resistance:

Condition for skill acquisition: Survive even after eating a living creature that contains poison over a thousand times more lethal and deadly than usual.

・Rank: Beginner

・Rank up condition: Survive even after eating a five hundred living creatures that contain poison over a thousand times more lethal and deadly than usual.

Weak Poison resistance, huh! I had gained that skill by surviving after eating that frog with the help of elixir. Don't tell me this what my other special trait can do? Isn't this is to overpowered?

On top of that, I had never even heard of a poison resistance skill or ability before, but then, no one could survive poison a thousand times more lethal and deadly than usual without a miracle drug called elixir. That must've been the main reason of all this.

Because without the elixir, I would've been died long time ago.

Anyhow, just one of those frogs was enough to fill my belly. With this, I wouldn't have to worry about food for the time being. However, once I ate all of those frogs, things would change.
