《Aries》vol.1 chapter 5. Help in many ways
Advertisement
I was currently reading [how to gain skills] because I feel like that is going to make me understand even more about skills and why I couldn’t gain a skill, I mean if this is just like virtually reality then doing something repeatedly will be able to be a skill, like walking, I was doing that for hours and I didn't gain anything, due to my frustration I just ended up reading it
To gain a skill is harder than you think; there are ways to gain skills but its harder then stealing skills.
First, you must either be born with it, this rarely happens because it might corrupt the baby when it is still a fetus.
Second, you must have a trait from your parents, if you don’t have one, then you either are unlucky or you were too weak to gain the skill.
Third, you must do it repeatedly at least a thousand times or even more depends on the skill you want, the more complex the skill the more it is hard to gain it.
Fourth, is using other objects or materials like a skill ring/stone/scroll, for the ring if you wear it, it takes all of your exp when you kill an animal or creature then shatters when it has enough exp then the skill is your but rings are rare and only found in the deepest dungeons , for the stone you must break it but the skill will only be half powerful then the original, and for the scroll its only an instance use but highly expensive so almost nobody uses it.
Fifth, you can equip items like a weapon or armor that has temporary skills, but there are times where it will break the durability so people only do it if their armor is made from the finest quality ore.
Sixth, is if you infuse your body and soul to either a human, animal, creature or monster, doing so will make you change in many ways, that’s why this was forbidden here.
Seventh, is if you have a skill that makes you copy skills (lucky you)
Wow that’s a lot of information, really detailed information, but is that it? I expected to be able to gain skills in a really fast way; from the looks of it almost all of them are really hard to gain skills. no.1 and 2 is a big "no" because I’m already born and I don’t have a trait. I don’t have money so no.4 and 5 is not an option and no.6 is forbidden so I highly doubt that there’s anybody in this world that will do this.
Out of all of them only no.3 and 7 is highly doable since I have the skill [INFO] but no.3 will take time.
*sigh*
ill read the next to see if I can do anything with my current skills, “open how to train skills!”
How to train a skill is harder then gaining skills and even harder to steal them, because there are times where skills don’t even level up at all, due to some of them having no way to know how much experience is needed to make it level it up to the next level, especially skills that are

[Uncommon, rare, unique and legendary] the rarer it is, the harder it is to level it up,
First, If the skills are common, then they can be leveled up by doing it repeatedly, examples are, running, sleeping, listening, etc. but skills from uncommon to legendary are hard to level up because they require special events that either effect the user or the users surroundings, also because people don’t know how to rank skills due to not knowing if they are uncommon, rare, unique and legendary, but common skills are mostly common due to some people having the same skill,
Second, There are times where skills are suddenly generated if the user is in the brink of fear or any deathly situation. people who goes to harsh training usually gets rare passive skills, and does not usually level up because passive are generated through special conditions,
Third, if a god or demon stronger then you feels like it they might give you a blessing or curse. blessings usually happens to kids that aspire to become adventurers, when they reach at the age of 10 they will go through a ritual so a god can give them a blessing and generate a random unique skill, has for curses it weakens humans, but strengthens demons and people that continually do bad deeds like killing and disrespect the gods, if the skill from the blessing levels up then it is a skill that is legendary and can only level up through special events.
Fourth, people can use skill ring. if the person has a skill and the ring has the same skill then if the ring shatters it will level up the skill, depends on how much exp was used to shatter the ring,
Fifth, this only applies to demons that drink blood, a demon that drinks the life essence can get the skills and level up the skill if constantly drinking the blood.
‘Ugh.. I guess that it is even harder to level up skills, but wait my skill from the blessing was [INFO] and [BEFRIEND], befriend leveled up, does that mean it’s legendary? Hmm.. Seems so.
also I now know the reason has into how I gained the skill [TRUST] must be due to my honest talk, huh.., majority of it explains the rank and how they generate it, not really that useful, and what’s up with no.5 ugh I should avoid demons for now, ’
*sigh*
well that didn't help at all, let’s go read the third one, even though I know it won’t help,
“Open! how to steal skills!”
How to steal skills is even harder due to many reasons, there’s not that much, because humans were never able to steal skills and lived to tell it,
First, is that you must have a skill that copies skill and that is really rare to get,
Second, you must drink the essence of the creature you killed to gain the skill and you can only gain skills by drinking really high creatures before they evaporate,
Third, you can steal the rings and stones but that will mark you has a thief and make your eyes glow red with a hint of green, knowing your a thief people will hunt you down,

Fourth, is that you can a body part of a human or demon and sacrifice it, should never be done, because if you do it might get curses instead.
‘Hmm seems like that dint help at all and what’s up with no.4, some people actually do that, scary much..’
*SIGH*
after I was done reading I quickly got up and went outside for some fresh air, looking around my area it was still dense forest, but I could hear a continuous flow of water.
‘must be a waterfall?’
I was going to head towards the direction of the waterfall when all of a sudden a spiral of water appeared in front of me and splashed came out aqua,
“How did you do that? I thought I need to summon you by drawing a symbol and say the incantation” aqua just wiggle and jumped like it was trying to say something,
‘ugh I have the help menu, I could have just done that before, I’m such a dumb ass’
Realizing my dumbness I quickly said ‘help’ and a blue window appeared, knowing that there was a lot of information with different types I immediately said the two key words, ‘pets and creatures’ to cut down the info, about 30 different types appeared, I decided to read the two that was interesting to me,
All about pets
All about creatures and how they evolve
I chose ‘All about creatures and how they evolve’ because I know in games, pet companions usually get a power up when they get to a certain level and also have the requirements to evolve, and I also wanted to see if its related to my pets since they were also once creatures of this forest,
I decided to read ‘all about pets’ first to see if there was anything related about what aqua just did, before I read the info I told aqua to play somewhere, it has been hours since I was reading, so I decided to summon Argus,
‘Seems like he’s all better’, when Argus was summoned aqua quickly was trying to drag Argus inside the forest, but due to aqua being slow due to low agility it decided to move using water and using it has a slide, before they left I told them
“Have fun!! And level up!! Ok!!”
‘I think Argus was screaming terrified... must be my imagination’ now that they were having fun I opened up the window and started reading.
***
‘It has been 30 minutes and aqua and Argus, still haven’t come back’ I thought as I closed both windows about pets and creatures, I was done reading and to sum it up.
The first thing I searched about pets was how aqua was able to do that, and to my surprise it was because aqua used her own mana to summon herself, to make it simple there are two was to summon a pet,
First, was to do it manually and that was doing the chant and drawing the symbol,
Second, if the creature has an inborn element then they could be summoned through that element.
Another important thing was that they could evolve but it require less requirements to do so. from what I read about creatures is that they have two evolution's and that is they evolve when they reach Lv.50 and once Lv.100 they evolve again and gain a human transformation, after that they just train themselves since they have higher INT so they could think like a human now.
But there are also other creatures that pass the Lv.100 barrier and still don’t evolve, and that is because they don’t do anything but just live their life, kind of ironic.
But I found out that my pets can evolve after every 20 levels, that was shocking to me, and the reason was because my pets are currently in the bottom of the food chain and are fairly weak so when they became my pets they destroyed that barrier, can evolve into many evolution's,
and become stronger. I think once they evolve they can communicate with me telepathically, I still don’t know how it works but meh.. It’s all good if I can level them up and become stronger.
An hour has passed by and they still haven’t come back.
‘ugh where are they?’
just when my patience was about to run out I stood up getting ready to find them, only to hear the bushes shaking.
*rustle* *rustle*
thinking it was them I immediately ran to the bush but I stopped to find that it wasn’t my pets but other creatures that look like bigger version of them.
One was a light blue jelly like thing that was floating, the jelly like slime was a circular orb and from that orb the jelly was branching out to make it look like the bony part of a wing, the wing part extended more on the top while the bottom of the orb had a few of them.
now for the other one it was the size of a dog but fluffier. The neck had more fur than the body, and also has really big antlers, I was going to take stone and throw it at them but.
Looking closer I realize ‘wait are these my-’ before I could think I heard two voices in my head one was a young feminine voice and the other was a male voice that was like teenager going through puberty.
in my head they said in unison.
‘Master please save this winged creature’
‘Father please help this weird winged creature ’

Anyways, rate; follow, etc. to show support. Thank you guys :D

Invader Zim >> Not Just a Defect <<
First of all, this is my first Invader Zim story. Second of all, I never even watched the show when it first came out, considering I thought I was too old to be watching a Nickelodeon TV show. It wasn't until a couple weeks ago when one of my favorite YouTubers, Saberspark, did a review on the new Invader Zim movie. He said a lot of good stuff about the show, and how much he love jt, so I decided to give it a try. I immediately started loving the show after watching the movie first (should have started with the TV show, but I wasn't thinking at the time and wanted to see ehh Saberspark liked it so much (>w>)) Anyway, this story will be taking place AFTER the movie, Invader Zim Enter the Florpus. It will be taking place a couple weeks, maybe a month, after the Florpus incident, so not much would have changed. Again, if you know the artist of the Cover Art used for this story, please tell me so I could credit them properly. Anyway, I hope you'll all enjoy this story as much a I will enjoy writing it (^v^/) (Don't worry I ask permission to post and share it's book it belongs to Veronika1930) https://www.wattpad.com/story/199046111-invader-zim-%E3%80%8Bnot-just-a-defect-%E3%80%8A
