Reincarnation Of The Cheater 41 Goblin's Rage 4

"It's mainly to set his foundation as an adventurer. He's talented but his focus is only on fighting and he barely has any survival skills. I mean you saw it when he was fighting but when it came to traps he had no knowledge whatsoever. As an adventurer no matter how strong you are there are times when you have your guard down so I'm trying to teach him the basics to at least ensure his survival." Finn says while staring at the ground.

Listening in on their conversation gives me a mixed feeling of emotions. I feel like I have to pay this kindness back somehow. Is there anything I can give him that will actually be useful? Looking through the store I don't see anything like a gift section so I think I have to give him something myself. Looking through the store to see what might suit Finn the break time runs out and we head out onto the Sixth Floor.

The second we get onto the Sixth Floor a chill runs down my spine and I look over to Finn and Shin and even they seemed to feel pressured and have noticed as well. Looking at where the feeling is coming from there is a shadow of a huge goblin, probably not the goblin lord but it seems to be close in strength from what I've been told.

'What the h.e.l.l, a skill that can't even be ranked. Is that even possible?' Having surprise and shock written on my face as I look over the Goblin General's skills. It seems that I've meet something incredibly rare.

'System how does the skill have question marks instead of any ranking or level.'

[Skills that aren't from this world haven't been ranked. They aren't limited by this world's laws either and don't have a limited growth rate. At the same time, skill points can't be used on them and the only way to know what it's level is to have the skill yourself. Of course, that means that someone taught this Goblin General that skill so you have to be careful of the repercussions.]

'Alright then, It may not be a skill form this world but that won't stop me.'

'Skill Steal "Soul Manipulation"'

[Activating skill... Stealing skill from target... Done]

[Congratulations the skill "Soul Manipulation(Lv.2) has been aquired]

As the skill disappears from the Goblin General's status and appears in mine I can feel the entirety of my soul and even look into it as well. Looking into my soul I can see orbs of light gathered around an even bigger light that is shining blue. My soul, in general, is like a never-ending ocean that swallows up everything. Upon receiving the skill a flow of knowledge appeared in my head and I know that each smaller orb is a skill and the thing their surrounding is my life force. The Goblin General seems frustrated and angry that it can't activate it's skill and rushes at us with bloodl.u.s.t.

"This one is a general but it's a variant as well. This hasn't happened in 40 years. The Goblin Lord has to be a variant as well if this guy was still loyal to them. Goblins have a rule of only the strongest can be the ruler so we might have to go back and admission a quest to the higher ranked adventurers." Finn says as he gets ready to retreat.

"It should be fine, we have the three of us. We need to check how strong the Lord is before we go back so we can request the right people." Shin says as he uses a skill and stops the incoming Goblin General.

"Alright, but your buying dinner." Finn says as he helps Shin push back the incoming Goblin General.

"Are you sure that we need someone to come and kill the Goblin Lord? Why don't we just kill it ourselves." I ask as the Intermediate Sword is lifted into the air and slashed down causing even the air to make way for it. The damage done to the general was that it barely cut through his skin on his shoulder. Jumping back I decide to use the Soul Manipulation skill to see what a skill not from this world is like.

"Soul Manipulation"

As my soul brightens and enlargens my eyes glow white and I can see everyone's souls as well. Shin's soul is like a small but st.u.r.dy pond, and Finn's soul is like a calm and soothing lake. The Goblin General's soul is huge and violent like the sea. It seems that he had a skill like that for a reason. Although I don't know if it will still work or not I still need to watch out for the Soul Intent skill he had. With the skill, I felt that I could control all souls around me so I decided to try and crush the Goblin General's soul. As the Goblin General's face contorts in pain form the anger he had before he holds his chest tight and falls to his knees. The light in my eyes die out and the Goblin General's soul is damaged in return as his will to fight completely vanishes and is replaced by a fear he has only felt twice before. Once when he was forced into loyalty by the Goblin Lord and another for the Demon who taught him how to manipulate his soul. He was able to make the skill he received level 2 due to his hard work and dedication but now that was all for naught. Stabbing the Intermediate Sword into the Goblin General's head as he was laying in defeat I felt one of the skill orbs in my soul enlarge and another orb shows up with the others.

'It seems that the thing that gave us all a sense of fear was indeed the soul manipulation skill. Just from using it the first time on someone who wasn't suspecting anything was very deadly.'

[Congratulations the skill "Sword Mastery(Intermediate)(Lv.4)" has leveled up to "Sword Mastery(Intermediate)(Lv.Max)".]
