Becoming a Monster

[Host is choosing his basic class! Choose between;

Warrior

Rouge

Archer

Apprentice mage

Arcanist

Priest

Artisan

Alchemist]

'Well at this point maybe I should just go with….'

He was about to choose his initial class which was warrior. Obtaining the class would fill in the gaps of what he was lacking and that was having good body stats. But then he couldn't help thinking about the mage class. Using a class that involves magic would be the most logical out of all of the classes considering how high his magic and spirit currently was.

'And I can essentially abuse my blood extraction more if I get more mana…I'll just use my free attributes to focus on my body stats. I won't get another chance at life and I know for certain that I would gain immediate results from this, not to mention its magic!'

Convinced that he was making the right choice, he hurriedly confirmed his decision before he had second thoughts.

[Host has confirmed the basic class Apprentice mage! +1 Magic and +1 spirit will be added to your stats per level. Choose your main talent between; Magic control, magic regeneration, and magic power.]

'What? I didn't get choices like this when I chose my class! But this is still good…I was concerned about not being able to recover my mana unless I only used potions.' Noah chose to obtain magic regeneration as his main talent before switching over to choose his skill.

There were a plethora of basic skills, more skills than he could receive as a monster tamer much to his annoyance, but he calmed down when he thought about the fact that his creatures were essentially an extension of his skills.

'Huh? I thought there were a lot of skills, but it seems to be the same skill, but with just a different element for most of them…" He quickly glanced towards the skills in question. One example of what he was talking about was the skill fireball. After the skill, the others skills were waterball, poisonball, lightning ball, etc.

And after that it was the same with firebolt. He continued to look and saw other skills that were focused only on attacking. There were skills like fire ward, and lightning ward. He wasn't interested in those types of spells. But he was interested in the debuffs he saw later on. Powerless strength, sluggish agility, frail constitution. Each skill targeted a certain stat and there just happened to be their counterparts that did the same thing.

Noah knew he didn't have enough time to look through everything. So far he found three skills to choose from. The three being manabolt, frail constitution, and surprisingly the skill called minor Illusion. Manabolt since he figured that the skill will not only cost less mana, but since it involves only mana, it would help him with his control and different from the skill Manaball, the skill piercing power was stronger.

He couldn't help but think of choosing frail constitution after he first laid eyes on the skill. The skill was essentially an aoe strength buff for everyone attacking the same target. Not only would Arachne be able to contribute more in fights where the enemy has too high of a defense, but he and Fenrir could deal more damage as well.

And the last skill minor Illusion, well just the name itself was what attracted him the most. The thought of battling with illusions intrigued him greatly and the limits for the skill was only limited to his imagination. Now that he was down to three, the decision to choose became harder.

'If it's come down to this then I'll just choose the best skill for this situation. If the smaller ants' shells were that hard then I can just imagine how hard the Queen's would be so the debuff would be a lot better in this regard.'

A few seconds passed and Noah had finally chosen his skill.

[Talent mana regeneration and mana bolt have been chosen!]

Noah could help but smile evilly when the system confirmed his choices when his thoughts differed entirely from what he said he needed.

'Screw it, sending out a huge spell is more badass, I can't keep lying to myself!' He yelled inwardly before finishing the last notifications of his skills.

[Mana Regeneration(Lvl 0)- Kick starting your core to draw in the surrounding mana passively, you gain one mana per 5 mins! The skill can be progressed by increasing skill level.]

[Manabolt(Lvl 0)- Circulating your mana into your palms, you can release a destructive bolt to blast through the enemy and circulate even more mana to increase the damage. Requires five mana to activate the skill and twice the mana for every second you charge for the max of 3 seconds. Further charging of the skill can be increased by increasing the level.]

Noah was completely satisfied with what he saw but at the same time he was confused.

'Why am I suddenly getting so much more information than before? Even with my taming skills, the system told me how much mana I would need for the blood extraction. Urgh! I can worry about this later, I have an ant to kill.'

Boom!

Naoh came to, having to hear the loud collision of two giant creatures colliding. He looked ahead to find Fenrir clashing against the Queen ant in a frontal battle of strength, shocking Noah to no ends. He quickly looked over to see the results of what happened to the ant minions. When he looked over, he realized that now even one ant was left untouched and when he turned back to the two creatures engaging he had another realization. The Queen ant was much closer to him than before!

'What the fuck! How long was I choosing my class? It couldn't have been that long' Noah exclaimed with a hint of fear. He didn't realize how absorbed he became when he became excited and time passed a lot more quickly than he believed it did.

Boom!

But he couldn't stand in shock for long. He didn't take his eyes off of Fenrir for more than a few seconds before seeing him getting tossed in the air by the Queen. If an ant could lift 10-50x their weight then it wasn't hard to accept how the Queen was able to throw Fenrir the way she did. But to Noah's shock, after she tossed him away, she immediately made her way to him!

"What did I even do to you?" He felt that either his luck was bad or this creature had a vendetta against him. It's been awhile since he used his skill and his small wound has already stopped bleeding so he was confused why she still was so dead set on going after.

From his shock, Noah took one step back but then he steeled himself before lifting up his palm. Change began to happen in the area of his hand. What would normally be a blue ball mixed with white, made of energy. The dark ball of energy that was both dark and light purple was forming.

Normally if someone uses the skill, the ball would form to only the size of their palm and by the time they use the spell after charging it for the full duration it would enlarge enough to become the size of their entire hand. But when Noah used it, the size was already the size of his hand.

Unfortunately Noah wasn't aware of this fact, he was too busy becoming hysterical that he was truly using magic like the stories he read for the first time. And like a proper Otaku, he held his left wrist that was circulating the spell and channeled it for the full duration of three seconds, enlarging it even more.

The size, to his surprise, grew to almost twice the size from before, almost the size of basketball.

By this time the students that were smaller in number and the four guards that were left were now watching the scene taking place. No one knew what the skill was, even those who were mages and knew about manabolt wouldn't be able to recognise the skill since Noah's mana is completely different from a regular human. But that didn't stop them all from gasping in shock and awe.

"MAANNNNAA BOOOLLTT!"

Everyone could hear him scream out his skill before seeing the spell being released from his hand and sending him launched to the ground from not bracing for the impact. Because the skill was a bolt instead of a ball, the skill suddenly projected out in a streak, leaving a faint trail behind it.

The line zipped towards the Queen who was almost upon him before the ant and the bolt collided.

Boom!

A collision, louder than the one from Fenrir and the Queen before, sounded and then the unexpected scene occurred of the Queen's head snapping upwards, dragging her body along with her momentum. She crashed onto the ground with a heavy bang and her body was left twitching and on her skull, small cracks could be seen.

The scene left everyone watching speechless, it was then the female who followed Neal and was also the one who helped him attack Fenrir in the cafeteria screamed out.

"He….he said manabolt right? RIGHT??" She screamed, startling and annoying the people close to her who haven't been able to recover.

"We all heard him say the damn skill, now what about it!" This time it was Neal's turn to be obnoxious. Whenever it had something to do with Noah, he seemed to never be able to stay in character, but no one seemed to mind at this moment from their shock. However the girl's next words confused them, unlike her who knew what the spell was since she also had it alongside her lighting bolt. It was the only reason she was almost traumatized from seeing the skill. Struggling to find the right words to convey to everyone to make them feel the same way she was feeling, she was only able to formulate a few words.

"That's not what the spell looks like…"
