So…

What is it doing here?

Who? You might be asking yourselves.

The butterfly of course.

I was just ordering Uso to find 2 more subordinates while I was away. I was planning on getting to level 20 and the evolving. Due to some unexpected reasons,not like I care or something, the butterfly that I met while in the dungeon has come and found me.

It said something along these lines : “After learning the language of this world I decided to do research on the mutated demons and species on this planet. Hope you don’t mind me staying with you for a while.”

I don’t mind. Also, it seems that it learned our language. Which…is good?

The problem with the butterfly is the fact that it doesn’t stop talking.

“There’s a system in this world? Seems quite familiar. In my former world we relied on ourselves and the power of laws to breakthrough and evolve. This is a lot easier than it was in our world.”

Don’t care.

“Wow! This is a Goblin from a Crimson tribe! Their eyes are the same. Please let me scan you and the dissect you!”

Uso. Run away!

It still gave me useful information. The best part is. It taught me about laws.

Basically each world has their own set of laws. They are divided into low,mid,high and top tier. The laws are further divided into the elements. Fire,Water,Wind,Metal,Earth and Lightning.

I was confused at first as to why there were 2 similar elements. By that I meant the Metal and Earth ones.

“The laws created are completely different. I can’t really explain it to you unless you comprehend both of them.” It said.

But! Due to his explanation I now know the true reason as to why I mutated!

The accumulation of energy that was stored from the demonic crystals was fused with the energy that I gained after I gained the [Water Affinity – Law of Absolute Zero]. After the initial burst of energy it changed the composition of my body and added frost attributes to my primal energy.

As for what primal energy is.

I don’t know. The butterfly won’t tell. That asshole.

After finally getting used to having a new member in my group I decided to finally go and level up for real.

My stats now are.

[Name: Xiao Lan/Little Blue] [Race: Aquafang Rat(variation)] [Level:15] [Title: Lesser Elemental Demon(main),Rat of Mischief(secondary)]

HP: 240/240

MP: 94/94

Mental Status : Excited

Strength: 25

Agility: 25

Lifespan: 45

Vitality: 120

Intelligence:42

Wisdom:19

I changed my main title to [Lesser Elemental Demon],why?

Because. Of this!

[Lesser Elemental Demon – Laws are what makes the world. Gaining enlightenment into a law has allowed you to use an elemental energy. Due to various reasons the only element you can use now is [Water].]

[Error! – Corruption magic changed the nature of the title [Lesser Elemental Demon]! Allows the use of other elements as long as there is a source of energy. Wisdom increased by 5.]

It is. OP.

Corruption magic that is.

“You’re going somewhere?” huh? It’s the butterfly.

“Yeah. Going to grind levels.” I answered calmly.

“I am coming with you. Already scanned everything that could be scanned in the vicinity.” So it says. Why? I don’t want you to come with me.

“1 condition.” I told it. I want compensation if you want to come with me.

“What is it?”

“I want you to teach me how to gain deeper understanding of laws and how to gather primal energy.”

“Deal. But you have to provide me with a goblin from the Crimson tribe.”

“Deal. You know…I think this is the start of a long friendship.” I said. Getting a goblin from the so called Crimson tribe? Easy! Isn’t Uso one? I asked her where her former tribe is and she gave me the exact location. I was planning on going there to gain some levels. She said that the tribe has 3 hobgoblins. One warrior and 2 shamans, we already killed the warrior one.

The shamans will be easy to deal with.

“Let’s go.” I said and started on my little journey.

The tribe was pretty close by. It was only 1.5 kilometers south of here. Listening to the explanation of the Crimson tribe that the butterfly was giving me during the travel I’ve learnt a lot of things about them.

The Crimson tribe.

A tribe of goblins with red eyes and green skin. They have the average height of 150cm and their body strength is like a human 20 year-old.

“We’ve come.” I said.

“It seems so.”

Time for my killing spree to begin.

“I want to ask you something before you start though.”

“What is it?” I am somewhat impatient.

“Actually…I’m going to ask you after we finish this up.” Make up your damn mind.

“Let’s start then. This is the plan…”

After telling the butterfly my plan we split up and waited for around 2 hours before striking the Crimson Tribe. I didn’t manage to order Uso to get me more subordinates so I decided to do it myself during this mission.

I’m in need of physically strong goblins that can help me build a small village. And maybe a shaman so I can learn magic.

The first phase of the plan.

Assassination of one hobgoblin shaman. If Uso’s intel is true then there’s a shaman in the tribe that wears red fur clothes with a runic design. That’s the weaker one of the shamans and the one that doesn’t know how to use a detection spell.

I decided to kill this one and make the stronger one my subordinate.

The problem is…

This guy is too social!

What the hell!? He is almost never alone! He has 4 wives it seems and a lover. He seems to be friends with the whole village. I tried appraising him as well.

[Name : Moire][Race: Crimson Hobgoblin][Level 5][Title : Goblin Shaman (main)]

HP 200/200

MP 160/160

Mental Status : Unable to appraise

Strength: 15

Agility: 19

Lifespan: 50

Vitality: 100

Intelligence:80

Wisdom:10

His intelligence and lifespan is higher than mine but everything other is lower than mine.

I also found out how some of the stats work.

Strength is basically the physical power of the user. The average strength of a goblin is around 10. If it’s a fighter then it’s around 15-20.

Agility is basically the stat that allows you to use that power more efficiently, it also allows you to have quicker reactions. If the strength and agility stat are out of proportion then you’re going to have a bad time.

Lifespan is basically the number of years one can live.

Each point in vitality is 2 points of HP. It also improves your healing abilities and resistance toward certain poisons.

Intelligence is the same as vitality as it gives 2 points of MP for each point in it. It also improves the ability to store large amounts of information.

Wisdom is by far the most important stat for me. Each point of wisdom increases the ability to think rationally, increases mental capabilities and resistances and also gives you higher MP regeneration. Each point increases the MP regeneration by 1MP/per hour.

My MP regen is 19MP/per hour if I’m not sleeping. The regen doubles when you’re sleeping.

“It seems that he’s finally alone.” I sighed when I saw Moire the hobgoblin alone. He seems to be going out somewhere. Lucky!

As for the tribesmen? It seems that they didn’t notice.

Moire,today is your unlucky day.

“Let’s go.” I said to myself. Leaving the tribe.

Phase two of the plan is going to be done by the butterfly after I kill the first shaman.

I waited for a few minutes for Moire to get a bit more away from the tribe then jumped on him.

I sneak attacked him and managed to proc the frost passive. He was startled and stumbled back a bit. I used that as a chance and bit him into the flesh near his ankle.

It seems that I am really lucky today, I actually managed to proc the frost passive twice in a row.

Moire seems to be shocked. He still hasn’t said anything though, he is just panting.

He started mumbling something.

He’s pointing at me? Shit! A spell! An incantation spell at that!

A line of fire started appearing around Moire. His black rough looking hair turned into a combination of black and red. His eyes become completely crimson.

Is this a buffing spell? Now that I think about it my main element is water while he is fire. I should have an advantage.

Come at me!

I thought while starting to run around him in circles looking for an opportunity. He seems to use close-range magic as his main attack type.

Sounds good to me. Because…I’m a close range attacker as well! Activate [Withering lv.3]!

“Come at me. You scum.” I said silently hoping that he would hear.

It seems that he didn’t. I aimed the charged [Withering] spell at the wound at his ankle and made his ankle gain an infection. The wound has become bigger as well for some reason.

“Fuck.” He finally spoke.

Alright. It’s time for my finishing touch. Literally! [Tainted Touch lv.2] activate!

Sacrificing 30% of my health for this last attack better be worth it!

“What is-!?” Shocked aren’t you?

This is it. Headshot.

I though as I bit right through his skull. His whole skull was in fragments. I searched for the demonic crystal and then hid it away somewhere safe so I can come back for it.

It’s time for phase two to begin.

I need to signal the butterfly.

After sending out a signal that didn’t alarm the tribesmen I met up with the butterfly and started phase two.

The butterfly will hold the hobgoblin down while I go on a killing spree. I also asked him to heal me before that. He’s really something, knowing 5 types of spells from different elements is quite something to me.

“Let’s go.” I said.

“Yeah…” He replied with a serious tone.

Let my leveling/killing spree begin. Level 20 here I come!
