I Became the Strongest With The Failure Frame【Abnormal State Skill】As I Devastated Everything

Chapter 28

<strong>The Ruins Area</strong>

I wonder if its because the scenery had completely changed .

My dull thoughts that’s clear of any uncomplicated things had regained its color .

[Those ivies... are they edible...? Hmm?]

Something is coming .

[Booohh... boohh, bo hiyyooooohhh...]

Something spherical is floating towards me .

It’s a monster that look like an eye .

An enormous golden eyeball .

It’s deep golden pupils, which is proportional to the size of the eyeball, is moving about restlessly .

Suddenly, many arms grew out of its spherical body .

The appearance of the arms resembles to those of a human .

Busshuuuu...!

Acid is spouting from the tips of the protrusions scattered around its body .

As expected, the monsters here also spouts acid like that, huh .

[Hiiiioooohhh, ggiiyyooooooohhhh—!]

Suddenly, the monster released a high-pitched scream .

It looks like it’s howling .

Or is this just how it cries?

The eye looks like its having some little twitches every few seconds .

In those multiple arms that sprung out of its body, magic circles in the form of rings that were clad as they formed .

Those magic circle seems to look like bangles as they perfectly fit in its arms .

It’s similar to what the goddess was clad at that time when she stopped the quarrel of Oyamada and Yasu .

[]

I took the initiative on attacking .

[]

Pzzzzztt!

Bachichichi!

[Booyyyuuoooohhhh!]

The eyeball is continuously hit by paralytic shocks throughout its body .

It seems that the premature discharge of magic backlashed towards him .

It’s like that time when that lizardman back then blew up its own head because of backlash .

[Gggii, ggiiyyuuuuiii—]

The monster’s gigantic eye is opened wide as smokes fumed out of the white part of the eye .

[Ooouuggguueehhh...]

I’m patiently waiting for this monster to die .

The gauge I used earlier is about to be emptied out .

[]

The monster’s gigantic eye closed .

After waiting for a while, the monster finally died out of poison .

My level is still increasing .

[This is...]

If the level limit is not 999, would I be able to exceed Lv 1000?

I look around my surroundings .

[I guess I should look around the area for the time being . ]

I start searching the surrounding area while being vigilant for any danger that may show up .

I don’t know how far I should travel until I reach the upper grounds .

It would be good if I could secure a base for me to stay at for the time being .

I found some door-like objects along my search in this ruins .

However, all of them were tightly closed .

It won’t open even if I push or pull them .

There’s also no handle for it to be a sliding door .

[Hmm? This jewel—]

I have just noticed something .

I recalled the jewel in the leather bag I have .

[Does these doors require for me to inject magic energy on them?]

I decided to inject magic power in it .

The gauge in the jewel started accumulating the magic energy .

Ah, now that I think about it...

[Status Open . ]

Displaying my current status .

MP: + 31345/31713

With this, I can confirm the decrease of MP as I’m injecting it to this door .

I can now also keep track on how much magic energy I need for the gauge to fill up .

The gauge is now full .

Looking at how much my MP has decreased— about 1500 MP is the required magic energy to be injected .

The door then started to vibrate subtly .

It opened from the middle as the door split open to the left and right .

I went inside while keeping being cautious for any surprise attacks .

[This room should be... around 8 tatami mats wide?]

My eyes came upon a table and some chairs made of stone .

I can also confirmed some furniture-like objects here and there .

There’s also some kind of crude cloth that’s spread around the floor .

Was the a former resident of this place used to sleep there?

The place looks like it’s uninhabited .

I sit in one of the chairs .

[Ahh... this feels great...]

I feel like it has been ages since I last “sat down on a chair”...

Once again, I realize that I’m a child raised in a modern civilization .

[Well then . ]

I get up from my seat and went to the door .

The jewel had already lost its color .

I display my status again in preparation .

I will try injecting 1500 MP into the jewel in the door again .

The door closed along with its subtle vibrations .

[I see . ]

It’s necessary to inject magic energy for opening and closing of the door .

I inject magic energy to the door again .

As the door opened, I went out of the room .

I want to check how the other rooms look like .

The second room I went to was empty .

There are only crude furniture made out of stone similar to those in the first room .

The third room was also like that .

The rooms’ appearance were all same and it continued even when I have reached the seventh room .

But, the eighth room was different .

I’ve found them .

Humans — that is .

No, to be exact, two human skeletons .

[These skeletons should also be from disposed people, right?]

Both of the skeletons were wearing light armor .

These light armor looks quite old .

Guessing by how these two are dressed, I think they should be a man and a woman .

How long has it been since they were disposed?

The two skeletons were sitting side by side with the wall behind their backs .

It’s as if these two were quite close to each other .

I’ve also just noticed it but they were also holding the hand of the other .

They have probably taken refuge here as they run for their life .

There were brutal monsters roaming about outside .

They would be killed if they were to go outside .

They couldn’t go out of this room .

Having neither food nor water,

They have chosen to die in this place together .

There is no traces in this room that they have been in conflict at all .

They had simply accepted that they would die together .

[...that’s quite amazing of them . ]

After I voiced out my thoughts, I checked out in search of what they have .

rustle, rustle

This and that are different things . There’s no place for sentimental things in this kind of situation .

I have to search for something I can still make use of .

Even I might die in this place .

I have to search for something that may seem even a little bit useful .

The sword leaning to the side already had its blade chipped and cracked .

When it comes to the staff, the crystal part on the head of the staff is already broken .

[...it’s no use . ]

The clothes I’m wearing now, the school uniform and the cloak I’m wearing over it should be enough .

Moving in clothes I’ve already grown accustomed to is easier .

Most of all, the skeletons’ clothes was just as damaged as the other equipment they have .

I also don’t want to change into it, hygienically-speaking .

Hmm?

I noticed some kind of small pouch in the pocket of the skeleton’s clothing .

I can feel its weight as I take it out of the pouch .

Confirming the contents of the pouch...

[Are these... jewels?]

The pouch is crammed with jewels that glitter blue .

After looking around the contents of the pouch, there were some silver coins mixed in .

It may be possible to turn these coins to money when I’ve finally reached the ground above .

It would be nice if these silver coins were the currency used above ground though...

Anyway it is, I’m quite thankful I’ve acquired something worth of money .

Because no matter which world it is, money would always be necessary .

I went to the two skeletons and spoke .

[I’m sorry, but I’ll be taking these . ]

I put the pouch of jewels inside the pocket beneath my uniform .

But... I’ve discovered one important thing .

That perhaps, this room can be a safe zone when it’s closed off by injecting the door with magic energy .

It seems like the monsters here in this area can’t inject magic energy towards the doors .

Or is it that the monsters just don’t know that the doors would open if they do it?

Anyway, I could finally secure a bed for me to sleep peacefully in .

Thanks to my leather bag, I’ve also got an stable supply of food and water .

[With this place as my base, leveling for some time should not be a bad idea...]

I resumed my exploration in this ruins area while I was arranging my plans for the near future .

<strong>v</strong>

During my search in the nearby area, I’ve encountered another one of those spherical eye monster again .

It seems that I have not been noticed by that guy yet .

I target the eyeball and release from behind a building of this ruins .

I followed up with .

And when the gauge for paralysis is about to run out, I released towards it .

Before I could even repeat the combo for a second time, the monster had already died .

Great, my MP is fully recovered again .

It would be better to understand that I’m jumping levels because of the monstrous amount experience of I’m gaining from the monsters here .

Therefore, I want to raise my level as much as possible before I would leave this place and reach the ground above .

However, my skill level doesn’t increase that easily .

Well, the skill is exceptional even with the current skill level, so I can give up on leveling them .

In the first place, I’ve never thought that my skill level would rise again by how slow it’s increasing .

I’m under the impression that my abilities would quickly rise as I just increase my level .

I resume my exploration of this ruins .

The number of rooms I had confirmed had reached a total of 24 rooms .

You could see some regularity by how the rooms were arranged .

If the pattern on how they arranged rooms were followed, this should be all of it .

I choose one of the empty rooms and decided to use it as a base .

I need to take some rest .

When I have finished resting in the home base, I stand up .

[Now then, shall we start?]

Leveling up .

And thus, I started leveling up in this ruins .

It seems that this area is where those eyeball monsters had made its nest .

I continued killing the eye monsters in the area even if it’s just me alone .

About half a day has passed since I have started hunting monsters .

I can’t see any eyeball monsters any longer .

I went back to my home base and checked the jewel in my leather bag .

The original yellow-green color has not returned yet .

After confirming it, I proceed on leaving the room and went down to one of the areas where there are monsters left .

I kill the monsters in the lower area with the usual skill combo of mine .

After a while of doing that, monsters in that area also ceased to appear .

I returned to the base again .

This time though, the color of the jewel in the leather bag has returned .

The meal of the day is a block-type nutritional supplement and oolong tea in a PET bottle .

I’m quite grateful for the nutritional supplement .

The food’s packaging is the same as the ones I saw back in my previous world .

It makes me forget that I’m in a different world for a moment .

[Fruits flavored, huh...]

I unexpectedly quite like this . (T/N: not specified . )

[Chomp...]

First is to chew it lightly with my molars .

I feel like I bit something like a moist cookie .

[Nyom, nyom... chomp, chomp...]

The block was broken down in my mouth .

A unique fluffy sweetness spreads out of the block .

I could still feel the faint sweetness it’s releasing through the scent it gives off .

However, I feel that just having this feels quite dry .

Without delay, this is where I drink the oolong tea .

(T/N: Hazure Waku is not a food novel . )

[Gokun, kokkunnn... muu... pfuhhaaa!]

I could feel the astringent sweetness in my mouth stiffened .

It’s not bad .

The cookie-like dough flavor I had tasted in that nutritional supplement was easily swallowed away by the rushing liquids .

I may be far from what you can call a gourmet .

But, I can say that I unexpectedly like this kind of meal .

Having finished my meal, I chopped the paper box of the nutritional supplement into a thousand pieces .

It may be just a temporary way on dealing with things, but I’m now able to brush my teeth, even if the brush is hard to brush with .

I’ve installed one of the dragon’s bones in front of the door just in case that someone approaches .

I don’t think it would happen, but the possibility of a monster intruding here is not really zero .

Well, that bone alarm device I made is meaningless against that floating eyeball monster .

However, I think if it’s just against that eyeball monster, it’d be fine .

If it can really get in, some of the doors in this ruins would have been opened already .

Or so, I explained to myself as I fell asleep .

After a long time, I was finally able to sleep without worrying about anything .
