“Uhh…” I say

I really did mean it as a joke though…

Well, to be honest, in a corner of my mind I actually expected… no, hoped for something to happen

I know how that sounds, but I´m serious

I mean, I lived through so much strange stuff since I arrived here

And just think about it, I literally have “Appraisal” so why shouldn´t I have more skills?

Like this “Status” here

Well, although I´m trying to act composed I´m actually freaking out quite a bit on the inside

Just now I was having a mental breakdown and next thing I know I´m in a video game

like, the heck?

Is live mocking me?

“Haaa…” I sigh my confusion out of my body

Welp, let´s see this from the bright side

I asked for information, I received information. There is no need to complain or be angry

Anyways let´s start sorting this mess out

There´s no way seeing a status won´t get me excited.

First thing to catch my eyes is my age expectancy

Just look at it, that´s an infinity symbol there!

Other stuff like me not being human anymore is fine

Well that´s a lie

But! you know? Infinite is like not ending, right?

How is it telling me that my body will keep on functioning literally forever?

That´s absurd!

You know, on the one hand you could say that´s great

I´ll be able to live a little longer and stuff

But what will happen to my ordinary life when I manage to return back home?

Will I just see everybody I know die of old age while I´m the oldest hag in existence?

And that leads to another question: Do I even become an old hag?

I mean it´s because our bodies get old that we die, so conversely my body should stop aging at some point, right?

So when does the aging stop?

…

Do I even age?

How should I know if “demon harpies” age?

Ok well it says that I´m a “Kid demon harpy” so an adult form probably does exist

“Haaaa…” As I massage my temples I sigh again, for the umpteenth time

I´m getting off track

My age expectancy will amount to nothing if I don´t get to the point of old age

You know, sometimes I keep digging and digging and can´t seem to get out of this thinking hole I make

I won´t call it a bad habit as that would be kinda rude to all philosophers who ever existed, but I do want to avoid it for now

Let´s just worry about things like that later.

Now, what´s the “1/4” besides my “race” even standing for?

I guess level?

It probably really does stand for level as I have a status and skills already

I kinda hope it does, actually…

Anyways, let´s move to the next point before I get off track again

My “Race” doesn´t seem to be human anymore

Well, I´m less shocked than I thought I would be, to be honest

Maybe me not being human is so weird and unusual that my mind just can´t comprehend it?

Or maybe it´s because I still look human?

On that note, either if I´m human or not my mind still remains as it was

I was a little scared changes in my body would lead to changes in my mind, but thinking back on how I cried over my family just a few

minutes ago…

I feel my face turning slightly red

Anyways! My mind isn´t influenced by my physical form, Ok?!

Whatever! next point!

“general information” surely seems very useful

…

Let´s calm down and get serious here, I´m kinda out of it at the moment

I have to get myself together

Especially since I can´t allow myself to rush the next point:

Skills

I´ll have to anticipate to stunble upon creatures who possess these “skills” too

I mean, strictly speaking, I am one of those creatures who possesses skills

And I also never heard of “demon harpies” before

So… Yeah

If I do meet other ones, that could turn out spicy really quickly

Though if they have an intellect like me, we could make peace I suppose

That would improve my situation by a lot especially since I don´t have the slightest clue of what is going on since I came here

Still, if they react hostile or we have some kind of miscommunication…

I really don´t want a thunderbolt or flamethrower coming my way

But putting the matter of me being on the receiving end aside, my own amount of skills is astounding if I do say so myself.

I don´t have a reference to go by, but I don´t think it´s “normal” for somebody to have so many from the get-go

Although I cannot really say that for certain.

I can´t really tell how rare skills are or at which rate they are gained

But if I compare that to some of the video games I´ve played then I can clearly say I never started out with so many.

Also I don´t wanna brag but seeing this omega symbol that comes with my “Rarity”…

The corners of my mouth turn into somewhat of a smug smile.

Maybe I´m actually kinda strong?

Well 8 Hp doesn´t seem that strong though

Maybe I can ask appraisal what the hierarchy in the Rank-system is?

“Hey appraisal, could you do that?”

…

…

…?

I´ll take the silence as a no then

So I can´t “appraise” anything I see on my status?

That sucks, it really does

How was I able to “appraise” [Appraisal] then?

…

Giving me the silent treatment, eh?

Well, I have to sort out the information I´m given before I try to get my hands on new knowledge anyways.

So let´s continue for now

“E Rank”, I really do feel like one actually, I´m way weaker than I was in my previous body

I mean, it was even difficult to throw a measly stone

But on the contrary my regenerative abilities are not bad

Just yesterday I had a high fever, but now I´m already back to full health.

Well it was most likely the groosha fruits doing though…

I´d say strength wise I feel like I´m about the same as a regular, little girl

I always was very sporty, but currently I feel rusty and my body doesn´t move like I tell it to

On that note, if I´m an E rank and compare myself to a “regular human”, then I really don´t want to imagine what monstrosities B or A ranks will be

If that´s even how ranks work

I mean, maybe E rank is higher than A rank and the highest is G or something

There´s also the possibility ranks work completely different altogether

Hell if I know!

Well I can´t really influence my encounters anyways

Now that I mention it though, I didn´t run into any wild animals yet

Maybe I was just lucky till this point?

I don´t know when I´ll run out of luck so I´ll have to keep up the pace

Let´s continue talking about my status and probably move to the most important part: My actual stats, condition and looking into my skills in depth

Those three things should be the most useful for keeping myself alive

“HP” and “MP” are self-explanatory

But it´s somehow confusing that there´s only these both

what´s with defense and attack power or speed?

Does “Status” really slack on something of such importance?

I can´t imagine that everything here will take and deal the same amount of “damage”

And how does “damaging” combined with “HP” even work?

It´s not like I can break my neck and still survive if my HP doesn´t reach 0, right?

Or can I since I´m a demon harpy?

Chills run down my spine at this thought

Well… again I don´t have a clue what´s considered as a standard, but like I said 8 HP seems dangerously low

I mean, I have more than twice the MP

And with this “Mana overfill” condition a whooping 42

This “Mana overfill” is also the groosha fruits doing, right?

If I remember correctly appraisal said the fruit regenerates mana

I have to appraise one again when I get the chance to

“[Groosha] – fruit. Rarity: Rare. Explanation: A delicious fruit produced by the [Groosha tree]. The fruits are ready to harvest at the end of July and by then contain a large amount of nutrients and vitamins. Not only do they support the natural recovery of ones body but they also have the effect of refilling mana. The fruit can be eaten raw or cooked. Cooking it with other ingredients may produce beneficial effects.” (appraisal)

Oh, uhm, Ok. Thanks I guess

So appraisal can give me information of something I have appraised in the past?

“Yes” (appraisal)

It´s talking to me again, yay!

Well there it is though

“refills mana and helps with the natural recovery of ones body” is stated there clearly

I´ll have to stock up on some of those fruits

But stocking comes after I finish with my skill analysis…
