Reborn as an Evolving Space Monster: Harem Of Otherworldly Beauties

Chapter 192: Explosive Acceleration and Hyper Sensitive Eyes

The Granilith immediately fell to the ground due to its forward momentum.

The pain made it want to growl, roar, and cry.

But the confusion was greater, rendering the Granilith completely silent.

“Guess I should take this, at least, a bit seriously.” The Paru whispered, still chuckling.

The Granilith, having fallen on its stomach, slowly turned towards the legs that it couldn’t feel anymore.

Horror filled the Granilith as it found its decapitated legs lying on the ground inches away from the rest of its body. A pool of blood had already formed, linking the fallen Granilith to its lost legs.

“Pretty cool, isn’t it?” The Paru muttered while staring at his blade arm.

It was slightly bigger than what he had shown Roka, but the main difference was,

“The Skills are just a way of explaining them. Raya made it clear. Enhanced Devouring doesn’t only have an effect when I Devour, or when I want to change something permanently. It can work in tune with other Skills, such as Blade of Bones…”

The Paru passed his hand over the upper side of his blade arm, where holes similar to those around his elbows and arms.

“Explosive Acceleration is how the System refers to it. I suppose that’s right.” He chuckled. “I can control the output, which took a bit of time to figure out. Much easier to just think about the Skil to use it. But thinking about my body instead gives me much more freedom. Isn’t that right, System?”

[Correct.]

[The System has never stated that output on certain Skills couldn’t be controlled.]

“Yeah, that’s true.” The Paru shrugged before taking a step back.

One of the remaining Graniliths had attacked desperately.

Only two were still standing, and both realized that they stood no chance against him.

Still, they fought bravely.

“Mm…” The Paru sighed, surrounded by four unmoving Graniliths. “There’s more that I want to try out. I’ll have to find an Alpha, maybe one of the Wizzos. With a huge body like that, I should be able to test things out properly…”

He Devoured three of them, before staring at the fourth for a moment.

The Paru took hold of the Granilith’s arm, and his fingers started digging into the Granilith’s jagged skin.

‘Going from the portion that I cut off…’

He was pleasantly surprised by the fact that the jagged and rocky skin came off more easily than expected.

‘My Strength Stat did increase a ton after all…’

Under the rocky skin, the Paru found what he had expected.

“Ugh… It looks disgusting.”

Unlike for the female Graniliths, the males have a second layer of skin. A much tougher one that keeps the deeper layer from receiving any sunlight.

“Such a weird shade of blue… Is that how I look beneath? Ugh…”

The Paru kept taking off more and more of the Granilith’s jagged skin.

“Feels like skinning a rabbit…”

He stared for a moment.

“They’re not as ugly as expected, without that rocky skin.”

The Paru shrugged.

The sole reason why he had done this was curiosity, and nothing else.

The Granilith was quickly Devoured, and the Paru went on his way.

“Merging is a useful ability, and something that Raya pointed at as a natural thing that I could do. There’s no real limit to how many Skills I can merge at once, right? Unlike in a video game though, Merging here is strictly addition, and not multiplication. Still, that’s good enough.”

Since Skills Merged together aren’t lost, through the -Skill Storage- Skill,

‘Another thing that isn’t necessary.’ He sighed. ‘The Skills come from my body’s abilities. From my genes. Of course making two genes work together wouldn’t make them disappear. It’s not like those genes actually merge and become something new. Although… That would be an interesting thing. The world is vast, so I might find something that holds a similar ability…’

While trying to find appropriate enemies to test his Skills against, the Paru decided to Merge four Skills together.

Enhanced Vision Lv.3

Thermal Vision.

Night Vision.

Electrical Perception.

“…!”

The Paru was immediately forced to close his eyes and bring a hand to his face as they twitched.

[You have Developed the Skill “Hyper Sensitive Eyes” through “Skill Merge”!]

[Your Perception Stat permanently increases by 20 Stat Points!]

“Yeah…” The Paru slowly opened his eyes once the twitching stopped. Despite the Skill not being active, “I can see that.” He chuckled. “Not to make a bad play on words.”

The Paru’s eyes could see further and more clearly.

‘I can tell that there’s something hiding behind that bush. Even thermal vision has become something permanently active. Well, a lesser version. Using the Skill would give a clearer idea of what’s there, but this is incredibly good.’

The sun hung high on Tyl, but he assumed that the effect on Night Vision would be similar.

“Not bad.” The Paru whispered as he walked towards that bush.

It shook, but before what was hidden could create any distance, it was grabbed by the neck.

“Some kind of big salamander?”

The creature twisted and turned as it was lifted.

Suddenly, it turned its head in the Paru’s direction and,

“Ha! That was close.” He chuckled as he launched it into the air. “Spitting out poison, huh?”

The attack had been dodged closely, which the Paru couldn’t help but feel was partly thanks to his improved Perception Stat.

“Go now.” The Paru whispered as the salamander-like creature landed on the ground. “Show me where you come from.”

It didn’t take long for the salamander, running as quickly as it could, to lead him to its domain.

In front of the Paru was a large hole in the ground.

“A tunnel?”

The fact that Raya hadn’t talked about such a Species meant that it was either harmless and, therefore, worthless, or that it was a rare one to find.

“Now that I think about it, it took them a bit of digging to find information about Wizzos.”

The Paru cracked his knuckles and took a step down the tunnel.

[A Quest has been issued.]
