Feeling...?
"Report: Resistance to pain acquired."
Tired... hmm, maybe not...
"Report: Creating a body that will never tire... Success."
Thirty-nine years... is that young or old? Maybe? Is this... what death feels like?
"Report: Creating a body that will never age... Undead body... a body made of energy... Success."
"Report: Conditions met... Resistance to pain becomes Pain Nullification... Success."
Wife? ...None.
Money? ...Well, that's just how it is.
"Incorrect information...?"
Annoying!!
"Incorrect information... searching for appropriate data... Skill Extra acquired: Spectral Howl... Success."
What is this sound...? Is this a hallucination...?
"Report: Skill Extra acquired: Mind Manipulation... Success."
Skill? ...What is this? Wait... I think I've heard of this somewhere before... hmm...
Wait!! ...Don't tell me?...
If I reincarnate into the world I was thinking of, perhaps I just wish to live freely...
"Report: Unique Skill acquired: Libertas."
Without anything blocking me...
"Report: Unique Skill acquired: Piercer."
I knew it... Ah... Darkness...
Shit...
---
The sky is dimly lit with shades of pink and purple as I open my eyes.
It feels like being reborn from utter darkness.
Ahh...
Is this life?...
My body, my hands, everything about me is just magical energy forming an entity...
"Report: Magicule Sense acquired."
My body feels light, yet full of energy I've never experienced before—like a hidden power behind every breath.
"Report: Host body formed from pure magicule energy."
Who...?...
"Report: Unique Skill: Libertas."
Reminds me of Rimuru's Great Sage skill...
The dim, dusky sky and the vast, abandoned land indicate that this isn't a Jura forest territory. Is this Leon Cromwell's domain? Or Elmesia? If this is the Eastern Empire's territory, things could get serious.
*Rumbling sounds*
What's that noise...?
From afar, I see a humanoid figure chasing an unknown monster.
Wait... is that a giant??
So, this is Barren Land? Dagruel territory?
Damn, I need to hide...
From the magicule energy emitted by the giant, I estimate that if I get hit, I will be instantly blown away or vanish.
Libertas... what am I...? Is there a skill useful for situations like this?...
"Report: According to data... the host is a new type of creature that has naturally mutated from a combination of undead and pure energy itself."
Forget about race issues—focus on the situation first!!
"Report: Intrinsic skill: Etheral Form (ability to become invisible or intangible)."
Amazing!!
Wait!...
Can that giant also control Magicule Sense...?
Libertas?
"Report: Because the host's body is pure energy, the host's energy is mixed with..."
Yeah... yeah, the surrounding energy, so it can't see me, right?...
*Fading away*
Finally, the giant pursues the unknown monster, and they clash.
Under the dim, fog-laden sky and dark clouds slowly rolling by, an ominous atmosphere engulfs the earth.
Earth-shaking tremors and thunderous clashes echo from afar, signaling an epic battle between the creature and the unknown monster ravaging everything along its path.
The giant, with a body as strong as marble and muscles ablaze, strides with immense power, eyes radiating absolute confidence.
The unknown monster, with an odd, dragon-like form, charges and spews toxic liquid, trying to drown the giant in chaos.
But the giant remains unfazed. With unwavering confidence, it raises its massive hand and swings with unmatched strength. A single powerful blow splits the monster's body and sends it flying into the air, unleashing a thunderous, earth-shaking roar. In an instant, the monster collapses, motionless, leaving a trail of destruction behind.
Breathing heavily, yet triumphant, the giant stands tall amid the wreckage. The dark sky begins to brighten as sunlight pierces through the clouds.
So powerful...
*Turns around*
Danger... I feel an overwhelming terror... I will die...
The giant turns, then walks away to where it came from.
Huh...huh...
Terrifying... Is this fear? ...Of death? Or is it just overwhelming power?
It doesn't feel good. I hate this—reminds me of my previous life...
Always looked down upon...
I want to become strong enough to control my own destiny...
Blue hair, blue eyes, unwavering confidence
True Giant - Dagruel The Earthquake.
No wonder...
Just wait... someday, this situation will turn around!!
