As I stare at the forest in front of me I don't sense any strong presence so I enter the forest I begin to slid through the forest at high speed, but I don't plan to kill anything yet only copy their skills as I go. as I was sliding through the forest I saw a wolf and connected to it copying the skills: Keen Smell, Thought Communication, Coercion. These seem to be very useful skills but I found that recently my skills have been difficult to keep up with so I've been trying to understand what skills are and how they work.
POV 3rd person
1 Month Later
there was 3 Humans were standing infront of a large metal gate looking at the hole that was through it then one of them spoke "was that there before?" Human 1
"I don't know" Human 2
"should we just go in?" Human 3
"uhh sure let's just finish this job" Human 2
"alright lets go then" Human 3
after the 3 humans struggled opening the large gate and entered, a blue slime emitting a massive aura bounced out of the gate and seemed to look around before bouncing into the forest.
POV MC
I have been in this forest for 1 month I seen many monsters and copied many of their skills the monsters I have seen so far are: a red-headed ogre, a green lizardman followed by a group behind him constantly praising him, another wolf pack one of which had a star on thier head, a short goblin with a strangely oval shaped head, a black orb flying at high speed, and a wasp like insect, the skills I have gained from that are: Ogre Flame, Natural Fighter, Webbed Limbs, Spiritual Essence, Spiritual Power Darkness, Unformed $*#% &@!, Exoskeleton, Poisonous Stinger, and Accelerate, but of course I couldn't forget my first encounter with a human where I saw him falling down a hill, I scanned him as he was tumbling past me, then I merged that knowledge along with my last life's knowledge to gain Form:Humanoid into my mimicry skill, not quite human yet but very close giving me hands, legs and a basic feminine body shape still a slime since I don't have enough data to safely transform fully into a human form but it will work to get me used to the body shape, I continued to walk through the forest with stealth enabled trying to find something intersting, that was until I saw a bunch of goblins bowing down to a slime with an incredible presence, that was using the ultrasonic wave skill to communicate with them, I thought this was intersting so I decieded to follow them.
POV Rimuru
I was following the goblins back to their village I kept feeling pulses of magicules but whenever I looked around I found nothing, I asked Great Sage about it
[ Currently I detect nothing ]
soon we arrived at the goblin village
[ Warning Data on Skills Water Manipulation, Infinity Prison have been forcibly copied by an Entity that can't be indentified due to them hiding their magicule signature ]
I spin around to see a flash of blue disappear from a tree branch, I yell out
"Come out I saw you, don't worry I'm friendly"
I saw a blue slimy head peak out from behind a tree
I heard a femine voice come out of a makeshift mouth say
"I'm here but, I'm not getting any closer I don't trust you"
POV MC
As I followed the slime I began to figure out how to hide my magicule presence by spreading them out equally throughout my body making them equal to the enviroment around me gaining the common skill: Magicule Concealment, I used my knowledge of Novels in my past life to devolep the technique where I focus some magicules on my feet and lightly tap them on the floor to send me flying straight in one direction at high speeds apparently I created a thing called a an art the art was called Hidden Flash Step, a silent quick burst of speed. equivalent to instant movement.
As I used these techniques to follow the slime, we arrived at a goblin village I looked around to see if there is anything interesting I found nothing so I tried to copy the slimes skills since goblins don't normally have them
{You have Gained Extra Skill 'Water Manipulation'}
{You have Gained Unique Skill Knowledge 'Infinity Prison'}
I see the slime spin around so I flash step to behind a nearby tree then I hear the slime yell out
"Come out I saw you, don't worry I'm friendly"
I slowly peak my head out, I don't know why but for some reason I trust it, either way though I still respond in a way to acknowledge them but show that I don't trust them, I make a makeshift mouth and use the skill ultrasonic waves to make a feminine voice come out of my mouth replying with "I'm here but, I'm not getting any closer I don't trust you"
I here the slime reply "ok then it's fine but let me introduce myself, my name is Rimuru Tempest, and you are?"
