[Required exp amount reached. Lisa leveled up to lv. 5]

[5 skill points were added]
[Stats increased]

And that's the last crab, phew. I even got a level up after killing like, I dunno? 20 of them? They don't really give much exp anymore. Nor do I get any evolutionary points anymore now that I think about it. Guess I'm getting too over leveled for this area, I'm too op now.

But I should check my stats now to see how well I can take on that crab, I might be overestimating my abilities after all.

Huh, I really am doing a lot better than I thought. I don't really remember how high his stats were, because I was... well, I don't like to think about that time. But I do recall that it didn't have much speed, so I can use my secret plan if things get dangerous.

I call that plan, the super Lisa tactical retreat! It's a complete fool-proof plan that needed many days of planning.

But enough with the shenanigans, now is the time to plan out for the crab. I have these crabs over here, I'll take 2 of them to eat and I'll use the rest to make explosives, then I'll plant the explosives close to the crab. I think I should also set other traps, maybe I can make some falling rocks as a trap? Yeah, I got no idea how I'd do that, or if it even is possible.

Well, after making all of the explosives, I think I should go and scout out where the crab is.

You know, working like this is actually pretty calming, it gives me an opportunity to reflect on things. I've been stuck in this place for so long now that I think about it. And more importantly, I'm not human anymore, I realized that fact a long time ago. But I was scared of accepting it, I thought that I'd change. Change into something I wouldn't know.

How long was I stuck in here for? And am I still the same? Do I even want to know the answer to those questions?

What would I even do after surviving through this place? I can't live with humans that's for sure. So why do I want to get strong? I mean, I wanted power to be able to survive and never be threatened by anything in here, but what next?

Maybe I'll build a nice house in the woods or the mountains, assuming they exist on this planet, but I don't want to be lonely, I've had enough of loneliness to be honest.

Well, that's enough with the existential crises. I don't want to think about that anymore, go away you stupid thoughts!

All of that doesn't matter now! What matters is beating that stupid crustacean in its dumb face! And so what if I'm not the same? I'm still me! Lisa!

I do feel better now, and oh look, I finished making all the explosives. Wow, that is one big mountain of explosives, it's freaking huge!

Ok now that I have the err, I gotta give it a name first, ok how about the Lisar bomba? Hah, I like that name. Well, now that I have it, I have to find where the crab is, then figure out its power, then place the bomb in a place that is advantageous for me, and where I can get far enough away from it.

Sounds like a pretty tough job. Strategist Lisa, you're up!

Ok, according to my opinion as a professional strategist, we need more information on that crab before we can do any of those plans.

You know what that means right? Obligatory stealth mission 2: Electric boogaloo!

Agent Lisa is back, and she's better than ever!

I'll climb up on the roof, and then I'll find that crab, it is a giant crab so it's kind of hard to miss. But I'll also sense its energy to be sure.

Yup it's over there, trying to find some prey, I think? Ok, now you need an Appraisal Mr. Crab.

[Crab] lv. 26

Species: Crystalline Karkinos
Status: normal.
Stats:
Hp: 890/911

Wow, those are some insane stats! But, it's unbelievably slow, and its strength is... well, manageable? It is higher than my defense, but it won't matter if it doesn't hit me, what I'm most worried about is if I can do damage to it with how high its defenses are. And it could have some skills that would make my life painful, a shame that I can't see its skills, but luckily I have the solution.

Ok, system, level up my Appraisal.

[Unable to level "Appraisal"]

What?! The?! Hell?!

Ok so that's my plan ruined, but what the hell do you mean unable to level Appraisal? Hello? Oi answer me!

Ugh, fine, guess I'll level it up the good ol' fashioned way, I was appraising everything around me, but looks like I'll have to appraise them even more.

Ok, so I at least know its stats, and it is pretty manageable, it's terrifyingly powerful, but still manageable.

I'm getting kind of tired now, when did I last sleep again? Well, I can't fight while tired, so I'm gonna head back and clock out for the day.

Agent Lisa is returning to home base, I repeat, agent Lisa is returning to home base!

Agent Lisa, might I ask you what you are doing?

Ma'am, going nappy time.

I created a stone barrier around me, then I curled up. I'll finish the final preparations tomorrow, and then I'll take it on. I'm feeling pretty nervous about it. I just want to not think about anything and go to bed. But these thoughts keep on pestering me, is humor not enough to keep them away anymore? Well, jokes on you! I'm not funny anyways!

Haa, I'm just gonna stubbornly shut my eyes and count sheep.

I counted until the entire population of Wales jumped over the fence. Then gave up, and fell asleep.

Napalm

Hey dudes, long time no see eh? Sorry for taking a month off so suddenly, I don't promise to not let it not happen again. I lost quite a bit of skill and quite frankly, my head is a bit shaken up. I'll figure my head from my feet over the next couple of days. But for now, I will give you some cookies
