Becoming a Monster

'That was a lot of zombies just now, but I still didn't get a notification? How much more does Fenrir need to level up?"

Noah knew that both he and Arachne still had some ways to go before they could level up so he didn't bother to look at their progress. His mind couldn't accept the fact that Fenrir didn't level up. However he had to check or the thought would keep bugging him.

"..."

Noah took some time to think about what he was looking at. He came out of the space from checking his stats and peered over the field of dead bodies his small team had caused and thought in silence. Soon a small chuckle began to originate from him before he began to slowly walk over to the chest that dropped.

He wasn't upset, but he was just in disbelief that he was probably just one zombie away from leveling up. Not only did he feel satisfaction in leveling up himself, he also felt accomplishment when his creatures grew stronger too.

He was preparing to open the chest when soon a voice spoke loudly through the air. It was the same godly voice that spoke last time that granted him this new life. He didn't hesitate at all to drop any thoughts he had to pay attention to what the being had to say.

"HUMANS, YOU HAVE BEEN GIVEN A CHANCE! I HAVE BEEN DISAPPOINTED FROM THE ADVANCES YOU HAVE ACHIEVED THUS FAR. EVEN WITH WHAT I HAVE GIVEN YOU, YOU HAVE SHOWN ME THAT YOUR DESIRE TO LIVE AND TO GROW STRONGER AMOUNTS TO LESS THAN THE CREATURES YOU FELT SUPERIOR TOO.

THERE WILL BE A CHANGE SOON, AND IF NOT FOR ONE OF YOUR KIND HAVING TO PASS THEIR LIMITS JUST NOW, I WOULD NOT BE GIVING YOU THE OPPORTUNITY TO CHANGE YOUR FATE!

This chapter upload first at NovelUsb.Com

ONCE AGAIN, PROVE TO ME THAT YOU DESERVE TO LIVE, YOU HAVE THREE DAYS! THE CREATURES OF THIS REALM AND YOUR MINDLESS COUNTERPARTS ARE BREAKING THEIR LIMITS AND HAVE MOVED UNHINDERED.

SHOW ME THAT YOU TOO CAN CONTEND AGAINST THEM. IF NOT, THEN IN THREE DAYS YOU WILL KNOW TRUE SUFFERING!" I WILL NOT CONTINUE TO LET YOU REAP FROM MY BENEFITS WHEN YOU DO NOT DESERVE IT!"

Even though the voice was gone, everyone around the world felt despair. There was a sense of crisis in their hearts. 'What does he mean change? And how do we show him?'

Countless thoughts and discussions were ongoing about the topic, but the populace were more concerned about the time given to them and what they should do. Not many of them thought about the fact that someone, a human no less, had somehow 'passed his limits'. Unlike the others, that was what intrigued Noah the most.

'I wonder what did that person have to do to pass his limits? Was it surpassing a certain amount of stats? No… I don't think that's right…'

Noah soon began to tap his chin with his finger in deep thought. Arachne had seen him like this before, she also knew that he tends to take time when he has to open up the boxes that appear from nowhere so she took the time to feed.

She had her eyes sat on the fat zombie for awhile now, she crept slowly at first to not draw Noah's attention before she quicken her pace.

"!"

"Hiss!"

However before she could appreciate her meal, A werewolf who didn't know the meaning of 'my kill my meal' had engulfed half of the zombie into his mouth before the sounds of bones cracking and blood exploding was heard from his jaws.

Arachne began to hiss in protest and quickly arrived at Fenrir's legs, poking at him with her many legs to get his attention. With half of the zombie's body in his mouth, Fenrir looked down towards Arachne in confusion. 'Why are you attacking me? He thought.

The two weren't on the wavelength to the point that they could easily communicate like how Arachne was able to communicate with Grim, even if it was basic. The hissing had distracted Noah who looked over to see what was happening.

"Sigh…Fenrir!"

The two instantly stopped, Fenrir was startled and its mouth became slacked, resulting in the blob of the zombie to fall to the ground. Instinctively, its tail was brought under him and tucked between its legs. Arachne hissed arrogantly, feeling that justice was served and was about to make her way to the body when she heard Noah say something that will give her nightmares.

"Arachne, I need you to share that one with Fenrir, just this once, I have the feeling that it would help him level up."

"!"

Arachne felt betrayed, she turned to face Noah and stared for a few moments hoping he was going to change his mind, but she saw that he went back to stupid box.

She gave up and allowed Fenrir, who was back to wagging his tail, chew through half of the body before she could enjoy her food in peace.

'Wait, I'm not thinking as a gamer…when it comes to games with a job system, there should also be class advancements when you reach a certain level. I'm sure that's what he did, but what level was it?'

Noah's thoughts reached a point that left him satisfied. There was no use for him to overthink it, he would just have to continue grinding like he's been doing.

He went to finally open the chest, slowly opening it to 'guarantee' that he got something good since it was a golden chest.

He was already becoming excited when he saw the amount of gold in the chest and the glows that most likely were the attribute orbs that he enjoyed receiving the most. After having so much gold at one point that could help him grow stronger. He felt that he may soon feel the same way about gold that Arachne feels about food.

Fully opening the chest, he spotted two attribute orbs, one was a size bigger than the original which just happened to be white for spirit, while the smaller one was blue, for magic. Noah wanted to give more of the orbs to Arachne, but he felt that these orbs in particular would do better on him than her as of now.

[+5 spirit]

[+2 magic]

He quickly used the orbs for himself before retrieving the next item which was a skill scroll. Something he hasn't received in awhile but he wasn't as excited as the average person would be. He already had enough skills that he had trouble keeping up with, but he checked the skill just in case it was something he could use.

Skills

Muffled sound

Elusive

Passive:

​ Stealth]

Noah wasn't exactly sure if the skills were good enough to roll for, he never considered going for an assassin build and he has never learned if there was a limit to how many skills he could have.

'Screw it, if there's a limit then it would suck, but if there wasn't then I would be foolish to pass up on skills that can potentially help me. Let's roll for it! If I can get stealth then it would be worth it.'

[Skill Elusive confirmed, would you like to learn it?]

'Tsk" Noah clicked his tongue in annoyance. He thought about not accepting the skill, but the name of the skill made him think that it could still be useful considering the fact that elusiveness should be related to agility.

[Skill, Elusive(lvl 0) obtained- Fully in tune your mind to control your body, giving you the reflexes of an expert assassin, agility stats are increased by 25% for one second. Consumes stamina for each time activated. The consumption is increased for each use used in succession.]

The skill brought a smirk to Noah's face. He may not be able to make the best of the skill while his stats are lowered, but when he returns to tip top shape, the skill will prove more than beneficial when combined with his spider skills.

He then took out the last item that caused him to frown.

'Another bow? Can I atleast get arrows for Christ sakes?' He observed the bow while still wearing a frown. The bow at least looked better than the one he previously had. Instead of wood, the bow was made out of silver and grey metal with wire instead of string. It made him curious how powerful the bow would be, but he felt that if the bow looked better then he should at least replace the other one with it.

He was running out of space in his bag now that he obtained the shield so he would have to get rid of the previous bow for this one. He didn't have the strength to continue to carry more. Noah made his way to his bag and began to rummage through its contents to retrieve the bow he planned to discard when he was interrupted.

"Uh…Hey, excuse me. Can we talk to you for a second?"
