Travelling My Favorite Worlds - Chapter 54 Upgrading My Skills
(A/N: I have been avoiding this for awhile, but I need to get this out of the way. I am writing this not before I even have any ideas or what not, so I hope that you guys like them, and if not, well I’m sorry that I suck at this. In theory everything should be amazing, but it’s hard to find a good sense of balance between broken and useless.)
Hm, while I’m doing nothing and have a break from chaos, I need to go and actually work on myself. Nothing like hardcore training though, but like I still have some skills that I can go and draw from and I need to go and upgrade some of my skills that I have since a lot of them have hit some checkpoints.
Okay, first is how many skills I can go and draw, 3 random S class techniques, 3 power draws, an SP draw, and 4 support skill draws. Oh, and 2 kekkai tota draws apparently. Huh, didn’t know that I didn’t use these yet. Man, this makes me shiver a little bit from excitement.
Okay, draw the three techniques!
[Host has received-
1x- Chakra Purification Technique
1x- Time slow (Low) Technique
1x- Time increase (Low) Technique
]
Well, I can train my time release a bit at least now, right?
Okay, lets do the SP draw, I want to see what I’ll get!
[Host has received-
167,757 SP
]
Oh, I can buy a lot with that. I’m surprised the system gave me such an odd number though?
‘System ran random algorithm to determine amount.’
Hm, well lets go and do those 3 power draws then.
[Host Received-
Undead Creation
Arrow Creation
Telekinesis
]
One of these things is not like the others here? What the fuck is arrow creation? Don’t I have high luck?
‘host, Arrow creation enables for host to create an arrow of energy, and at higher levels allows different kinds of arrows to be made such as fire, light, darkness, and many more. The limit of this is host’s imagination.’
Okay, that’s fair I guess. Hm, support skills now I guess.
[Host has received-
Telepathy
Spider Sense
Super speed
Vector Manipulation
]
I mean hey, all these powers sound pretty damn solid honestly. That reminds me I have that damn bow that I need to do. Oh yeah, and I have the Inhuman reflexes I need to put on as well. Wait, that’s right I need 100, or well 1000 in Strength and Dexterity right? Also, did I get a Danmachi welcome box?
‘Affirmative on both counts.’
Open the welcome box then.
[Host has received-
1x-Falna Manipulation Ability (A/N: Also involves creation of them)
1x- Summon
1x- Development Ability
Total Magic Aptitude
100x- Stat points
1000x- SP
]
Oh, well that Falna manipulation would have been handy much earlier, but well I guess it’s better to have a deity represent the Familia since, well it’d be weird if I just showed up to events in place of my god since I wouldn’t have one.
Well lets see, now I need to draw those 2 Kekkai Tota’s. Alright, Draw (fighting the urge not to say yu-gi-oh shit)!
[Host has received-
Metal Release
Healing Release
]
Hm? Metal Release? Also, Healing Release? For some reason these don’t seem to be that rare or special. Also about the healing release, isn’t the system trying to go and make it so that I am more likely to heal when I am close to death than I’d like? Okay, whatever. Development ability!
[Host received-
Blacksmithing- Rank G
]
[Converting to universal system… Converted to Level 1]
Okay, well I still have the summon I guess, right? Hit it!
[Host has received-
Spider-Gwen (A/N: I added her to the list since I saw spiderverse. Amazing movie btw, shocked she was added so soon though given how many names I have up there)
]
Huh, that name sounds familiar… Oh yeah, that’s right. My friend was telling me about an alternate spider-man that was Gwen getting bitten, I don’t remember too much beyond that though but I mean, if I remember right she was pretty badass… I’m going to get accused of only summoning blonde girls again aren’t I? Well what happens happens I guess right?
Alright, well I want to go and activate all of these, but first I want to be able to use the Inhuman Reflexes as well, so how many Stat points do I have now?
‘Host possess 155 Status Points.’
Okay, well use 40 on both Strength and Dexterity. After that, uh lets see I’ll have 75 left so I guess I can go and dump the rest of it into my intelligence? I mean I think that sounds pretty solid actually. Watch, I’m going to think it’s stupid as hell after I go and hit that high a level of intelligence.
Okay, Activate/add everything!
‘It shall take 5 minutes for everything. When host experiences pain it is recommended not to fall asleep as it will lead to high chance of failure.’
Oh god, I wish that I could have a higher pain tolerance to deal with this shit.
‘Informing host, this is pain to the soul, pain tolerance would not be applicable here. Soul based skills would be much more effective.’
Wait wait, so I can’t even go and never experience pain again with this? That’s bullshit. Why is it being applied to my soul anyway?
‘Informing host, it is so that when host decides to *redacted* everything gained will *redacted*.’
Hey, I know that I missed some key information there!
‘Host has not accomplished necessary pre-requisites to gain access.’
Well how the hell do I gain access?
‘*Redacted* is host’s best chance’
I give up. Has it been 5 minutes yet?
‘It has been 2 minutes.’
God dammit, this headache is killing me slowly inside.
Alright, alright. I got the notification, I didn’t pass out. I’m good now, I’m assuming it took so long because of the sheer amount of what I was, well, installing into myself. Okay so that’s part 1 of what I wanted to get done… Now for the truly scary thing though. System, Display all the skills that can make a derived skill already.
‘Cooking is the only skill able to create derived skills currently. Does host wish to create derived skills: Pastry chef, Meat cook, Vegetable cook… (A/N: You get the idea, lots of cooking things but they are all specialized.)’
Uh, can I just keep being a general cook?
‘Affirmative.’
Okay, then show me skills that can evolve currently.
‘None.’
Hm, well which skills can I mutate then?
‘Analysis can be mutated twice, Breath Attack 3 times, Breathing Technique once, Chakra control twice, Genius once, Kenjutsu once, Poison Manipulation once, Sealing Techniques once, Self Regeneration twice, Skin Durability twice, and Toxic blood once.’
Jesus, I have been slacking on this? Well I was in charge of a village that I went and brought basically from the feudal age all the way to past the modern age in what, 30 or so years? I think that’s pretty damned good all things considered so cut me some slack for not having time to train. Okay, I’m going to do this in order, so show me Analysis’s mutations.
[Analysis-
Emotional Analysis- Able to Analyze a persons emotional state after talking to them for a period of time. Those with high misdirection capabilities can cause this to be wrong.
Miscellaneous Analysis- Able to Analyze trivial things, I.e. Height, Weight, and 3 sizes. More things able to be analyzed however almost no consistent data available.
Knowledge Analysis- Able to Analyze what it is that the subject has knowledge about.
…
]
Wow that is a lot of shit, well I know I will want the Emotional Analysis at least since I know that will be at least a bit helpful, and hm. Out of the remaining 24 I need to pick another one. I guess that I will go ahead and pick History Analysis so that it not only gives the history of the object but a history of the person. So long as I have previously read or heard about them though. Leaves me fucked over in Danmachi but hey, there’s a ton of other worlds too. Okay let’s do Breath Attack!
[Breath Attack-
Denser Breath- Causes breath to be much denser, increasing efficiency of whichever breath is utilized.
Potent Breath- Causes breath to much more potent, increasing efficiency of whichever breath is utilized.
Breath Accumulation- Enables user to gain ability to regain a breath attack faster.
Breath Capacity- Enables user to use more breath attacks before needing accumulation.
…]
Screw it, these pretty much all get worse from here on out, well not paralyzing poison breath, but I have poison manipulation so what’s the point? I’ll get denser breath, Accumulation, and Capacity for my 3 mutations. Breathing Technique now.
[Breathing Technique-
Energy Recovery- Utilizes breathing to immensely recover energy that has been used. Able to be used for all energy types.
Vitality Recovery- Utilizes breathing to enhance bodies natural healing ability.
…]
Yeah these are pretty meh as well, so I’ll get the Energy Recovery one. I mean I am totally fine with recovering my stamina faster. Now onto Chakra Control.
[Chakra Control-
Chakra Efficiency- Reduces Chakra needed for techniques by 50% while maintaining the same strength. Usable on everything that uses Chakra (A/N: Yes this mean Shadow clones as well).
Chakra Regeneration- Causes chakra to regenerate 5x faster.
…]
Why is Chakra explosion a thing? Release all chakra as an explosion? Harms user? No thank you. I’ll get efficiency and regeneration. Alright, Genius now. God I wonder how arrogant this one will get.
[Genius-
Magic Memorization- Memorize any type of magic that is used in front of user either by being affected by it, witnessing it’s creation, or by hearing the full chant. Does not mean user can utilize the magic however. Note: Also counts for Jutsu and shouts.
Eidetic Memory- User is able to remember images that user has seen or been in with only brief exposure.
Extreme learner- User is much more receptive to learning. 5x faster retention speed, experimentation speed, etc…
Mastermind- Able to skillfully maneuver around opponents not just in combat, but in other types of battlefields from as something as small as rock paper scissors to something as large as intergalactic warfare. Note: This does not make user the best as it still requires user to try, it just enables user to have a much easier time.
…]
Can I get all of these? Like right now? This is the first time that I think I’ve wanted all of the mutations but holy shit. This skill is deserving to be called genius. I guess so that I can get more levels in skills I’ll take extreme learner, then… no no, patience Joe. Patience. Okay, Kenjutsu.
[Kenjutsu-
Sword Saint- More capable of learning with a sword, 20x sword learning speed. 20% slower to learn with other weapons.
Bow Saint… (A/N: Yeah lots of skills that are saint class. Just, if you think it, it’s here okay? Good deal.)
…
Jack of All Trades- User is unbound to a single weapon and can utilize any weapon, however due to lack of specialization user trains weapons a lot more slowly than those that are specialized at a rate of 5x.
…]
Yeah, give me Jack of All Trades, I don’t really like focusing on a certain weapon, especially something like bazooka saint. Like is that a thing even? I hope it’s not and that I don’t encounter someone who is. Lets see how much I can manipulate poison then hm?
[Poison Manipulation-
Duration Adjustment- User can manipulate duration that various poisons are able to last.
Poison Modification- User is able to modify known poisons to change them, including but not limited to: combining different effects and reducing deadliness of poisons.
…]
Making my own poisons sounds fun, well more fun than different things, though it seems like it will require a very fine tuned process. I’ll get it either way though since I am fine with taking some time to go and adjust some poisons. Sealing Techniques.
[Sealing Techniques-
One touch seal- Able to create a temporary seal with just a single touch of the finger. Loses or gains effectiveness based on strength gap between user and target.
Hidden seals- All seals are automatically invisible when not in use, invisible seals are much harder to find as they require constant focus rather than random searching to discover.
Beneficial seals- Able to create seals that will benefit target, recommended use on allies or on an enemy to lead to overestimation of abilities during combat before removing seal.
…]
Jesus, that got… dark as shit right there. System who hurt you? Did someone go and do that to someone you know because jesus christ. Well, uhh I’ll take one touch seal, it’d be nice if I could just put a seal down without much focus like with my formula’s. Alright I’m excited for this one, self regeneration time!
[Self Regeneration-
Regeneration Energy Conservation- Reduces amount of energy needed to regenerate by 33% without losing effectiveness.
Regeneration delay reduction- Reduces delay till regeneration after being harmed.
Regeneration Speed- Regeneration increases to 10x faster.
…]
Well, I mean getting that energy conservation and speed upgrade seems pretty damned good, especially if it helps out my regenerative immortality. Skin Durability time.
[Skin Durability-
Rubber Skin- When hit with something Blunt skin will lessen the blow and if weak enough, reflect it back. Skin disperses electricity. Note: Open wounds still can receive electric damage.
Reflective Skin- Skin has a sheen that when a laser or light attack strikes it has a chance of reflecting off the skin.
Optical Skin- Users skin gains the ability to, when wanted, camouflage itself into user’s environment.
Elemental Skin- User is able to select an element at will and skin will begin taking on a similar property, I.e Fire will get hot, Ice cold, water slippery, lightning faster, air lighter, etc… Choosing an element makes user more resistant to same element and opposite element.
…]
Well, I mean, elemental skin seems pretty damn appealing. And Rubber skin. Yeah, I’ll get those 2. Alright, Toxic Blood.
[Toxic Blood-
Corrosive Blood- Able to make your blood corrosive at will or when under hostility automatically makes blood corrosive.
…]
Yeah, no clue why it is that I would even need something like Blood flowers, so I’ll just go and get corrosive blood. Great, now I’m a xenomorph basically. Where are you ridley…?
(A/N: I will update the Status chapter and Skill chapter tomorrow, I am mentally exhausted from thinking of all these skills and skill modifications, but well I hope they are cool at least since this is what my suffering led to lol)
