DAY 2
This morning i got up with an intention to find my new body limits. So after usual sneaking around to avoid useless fighting with others and taking my food which consisted of 1 [Horned Rabbit Meat] and 1 [Sand Badger Meat].
Once I ate I started to practice moving my tail, walking around and testing my body limits which was comparably lower than it was before I reincarnated in this body but I guess that’s to be expected.
In my intensified morning training i noticed the same elderly lizardman coming in to the cave behind him followed 2 well built [Lizardman]. To be sure i used [Observe] on them.
Sala: "[Observe]" I muttered under my nose and I saw something interesting.
*Ding*
Ornic (Lizardman Elder) LV. 71
[Elden Wisdom] [???][???][???]Rounis(Lizardman Warrior) LV. 49
[Sword Mastery(???)][Fighting Tactics][???][???]Salomin(Lizardman Mage) LV. 83
[Internal Mana Control][Water Affinity][Mana Channelling][???]
*Ding*
The Skill [Observe] leveled up to level 2
Hoho seems like there are more information provided by [Observe] this time. And it seem that it ranked up in process.
The elder lizardman seems to be leading the other 2. They were carrying sticks of various size and shapes.
Ornil: "Ok, take the weapon of your choosing."
Once we were told that the others started to rush selecting their weapons consisting of clubs, long staffs or shorter sword lookalike sticks.
Ornil: "Now fight." These words brought about confusion among the lizarlings. Then he spoke again after a pause. "The last one standing will be allowed to go outside and explore the cave."
Once these words left his mouth all hell broke out as lizardlings starting to hit each other with full intention to kill. I on other hand decided to stay out of it. My physical strength was nowhere near them so i decided to use my [Stealth] skill to hide in the corner and wait for the outcome.
Finally only 4 other lizardlings standing I come out of my hiding place and come behind the poor unsuspecting lizardling and strike him on the back of his neck.
*Ding*
Sala learned [Ambush LV. 1]
The next instance after first lizardling fell to the ground I had to guard myself from a tail flying to my face. Once i felt impact on my arm I used [Static Touch] paralysing the poor thing.
*Ding*
The Skill [Static Touch] leveled up to level 2
Then I grabbed him in a sleeper hold and held him till he passed out.
*Ding*
Sala learned the skill [Grappling]Sala learned the skill [Sleeper Hold LV. 1]
The last 2 lizardlings were rushing at me with amazing momentum.
Once the first lizardling reached me I sidestepped and then another step back and using momentum from my spin I swept my tail over his face. He crashed face first to the wall and collapsed on the floor.
The last lizardling was too close so I was not able to avoid the strike of wooden sword so only option left for me was close my eyes, brace myself and receive the blow in a best possible way. The next instance I felt an impact but there was no pain whatsoever.
I opened my eyes and gaped at the sight of dumbfounded lizardling holding what was left of his stick. It seems my [Scale Armour] trait protected me from inevitable defeat. The next instance I grabbed his still outstretched arm and threw him over my shoulder and finishing him off with a [Sleeper Hold].
*Ding*
Sala learned skill [Tail Sweep LV. 1]Sala learned skill [Shoulder Throw LV. 1]The Skill [Sleeper Hold] leveled up to level 2
The 3 lizardman standing by the exit where dumbstruck at the scene that unfolded in front of their eyes. Then Ornil stepped forward and started to speak.
Ornil: "Hahaha. Little one you show good skills. Follow me."
After he spoke he turned around headed to the exit. I scurried after him from the nursery. While following him I make sure to memorise all the passages and small cavities on the way out.
The tale has been stolen; if detected on Amazon, report the violation.
Finally we reached tunnel exit and enter large communal area where there were around 30 adult lizardman lv 40 to 80. But Ornil did not stop he continued on and entered another passage and I not wanting to lose sight of him followed right behind him. We entered large cave together almost side by side.
What I noticed was a large pile of what looked like scraps of different sizes of metal and leather. Than Ornil spoke.
Ornil:"You can select 5 pieces of equipment."
Sala: "Hmmmm there seems to be a lot here. It takes a while to go through this pile of scrap to find better pieces of equipment."
At that moment Ornil stared at me with his eyes bulging out of their sockets. Hearing me speak fluently words in [Lizardmen Language] was something extremely surprising for him. Showing great amount of discomfort he spoke again.
Ornil: "You're a strange one." Then he turns around he says over his shoulder. "Take as long as you want but be sure to get back to your cave before dark or you may get in trouble."
Hearing that i decide to hurry up and dig through the piles of scraps splitting them in somewhat useful and scrap piles. All the while using [Observe]. By the end I had four pieces of equipment.
*Ding*
Sala obtained item [(Container) Dragon Hide Bag]Sala obtained item [(Melee Weapon) Mithril Longsword]Sala obtained item[(Protection Armour) Mountain Lord’s Bustier]Sala obtained item[(Protection armour) Mountain Lord’s Bracers]
Once I finished picking equipment I noticed a notification
.
*Ding*
[Observe LV. X]Sala learned the skill [Plant Identification LV. 1]Sala learned the skill [Monster Observation LV. 1]
I checked the piles one more time and picked up chipped blade.
*Ding*
Sala obtained item [(Weapon Part)Short Copper Blade]
Now that I finished picking my 5 items I decided to see what’s going on outside. What I saw astonished me.
In the middle of the communal room in the heat of the action was a massive white scaled lizardman having his fun whit 6-8 lizardman females. What my [Observe] and [Monster Observation] shows me is:
Arrak (Lizardman Alpha) LV. 93Traits[Alfa Male Presence][Absolute Control][Commanding Presence][Veteran of War]Skills[Threatening Roar][Intimidating Presence][Tail Sweep][Charge][Flurry][Berserkers Aura][Iron Claw Flurry]-
Seeing that I start trembling with excitement. I could feel my body heat rising and prickling sensation in the lower part of my body. As hard as it was to believe I was feeling sexual excitement. Before I realised I was walking down to him. Suddenly I feel tug on my arm which woke me up from my trance like state.
Then it hits me that this is something very dangerous to me. I felt all of my existance being robbed of me. Which in turns makes me into living puppet who reacts to any emotions he produces.
Now that I'm out of my trance like state not wanting to attract Alpha Male's full attention on me I used all of my stealth skills and sneaked my way back to the nursery.
After I was safely back in the nursery I felt cold sweat running down my spine. Now aware of the hierarchy of the clan and my standing in it I felt like I was doused with cold water. Shivering out of fear what future might wait for me I curled up and fell asleep.
