"Holy shit, just a few minutes of using medusa with the domain takes that much mana? I guess I can only use about 1 or 2 more… What should I do first?"
My eyes hover over my newest forbidden magic. Half of it was revealed, while a few stars censored the other half. I had the urge to use it, but images of what happened previously flashed through my mind.
I was scared of this skill. Even till now, it didn't show a description. Normally the forbidden magic that I've seen so far is related to mythology and gods, so I had a decent idea of what they did. There was the occasional name that I didn't know of, but even then, just by looking at the monster, you could tell what it was based on… but then there's this skill.
I use a mix of skills, and the only hint that I have is the evolution that I started with and the evolution that had this censored skill since I first came to this world.
"But a feather? What would a feather have to do with this?"
I continued to ponder, but I came to no reasonable conclusion. I always wondered why I started as a feather, and even till now, I ponder that same question. Why did I start off as a feather? Seeing how I had a skill since being reborn, it couldn't have just been that damned devils doing… There must've been something else going on.
"Maybe I should just ask Paimon," I mutter.
Before I went to find Paimon, I tested out one more forbidden magic, [Forbidden Magic: Zeus's Nimbus]. Since I still had [Divinity Domain] activated, all I had to do was activate the skill.
It felt like electricity jolted through my body before sparks started to appear from my skin. Those sparks collided with each other, turning into pure lighting that smoked anything near me. Small burnt craters were appearing around me, and before I used up the rest of my mana, I waved my hand slightly.
A burst of lightning in the form of a wave ate anything in its path, including the smaller hills that were part of the larger hills. Any residual burnt marks had an insane amount of static electricity. I could feel lighting jolting towards my hands just from the burnt dirt.
My hair had grown slightly longer, and it had turned into a bright shade of yellow. My eyes were a bright yellow, and my nails had turned yellow as well. The most noticeable change that wasn't even part of my body was a circular halo above me, made from gray storm clouds. You could see the lighting striking within it, but it didn't even make a lick of sound.
I could feel the exhaustion creeping up on me, so I deactivate both active skills. Exhausted, I bend down and place my hands on my knees with sweat dripping from my forehead.
"SEEMS YOU'VE INCREASED IN POWER ONCE AGAIN. AS EXPECTED OF MY MASTER," I hear a voice rumble through the air.
Turning my head, I see Paimon still towering over me.
"Yo, how's it going?" I ask.
"PRETTY GOOD. I'VE BEEN EXPLORING THIS MOUNTAIN AND HAVE FOUND SOME BEAUTIFUL SCENERY. I'VE ALSO BEEN GUARDING THE WALL AGAINST ANY POTENTIAL THREATS,"
"So that's why there haven't been many sightings of powerful monsters lately… try not to kill every monster you find. The adventurers need work,"
"HAHAHAHAHA! DON'T WORRY. I'VE BEEN MAINLY FOCUSING ON FINDING BEAUTIFUL SCENERY TO LOOK AT,"
"I see… oh yeah, I also have some questions,"
"ASK AWAY,"
"Do you know about a skill that lets you take the skills and titles of anything you eat?"
"HMMMMM… NOT THAT I'M AWARE OF… BUT I STILL HAVEN'T FULLY REGAINED MY MEMORY YET, SO MAYBE, LATER ON, I'LL KNOW THE ANSWER. OH, SPEAKING OF REGAINING MEMORIES, I FINALLY REMEMBER HOW MANY PLANES THERE ARE,"
"Well, speak up,"
"IT IS MY FAULT FOR GIVING YOU FALSE INFORMATION. I TOLD YOU THERE WERE 200 PLANES IN TOTAL, BUT THERE ARE ACTUALLY 600 PLANES IN TOTAL. THE 200 THAT I SPOKE OF ARE HOW MANY PLANES THE DEMONS RULE OVER. I'VE ALSO REMEMBERED THAT WHEN I WAS STILL ALIVE, THE ANGELS HELD 300 PLANES WITHIN THE PALMS OF THEIR HANDS,"
"It's fine, and I know you didn't withhold any information intentionally,"
We continued to talk, and we even had a little spar where we didn't use any of our skills.

"REMEMBER WHEN I TOLD YOU ABOUT THIS BODY HAVING ALMOST UNLIMITED POTENTIAL?"
"No,"
"W-WELL, ANY CREATED BODIES CAN INCREASE THEIR STATS BY JUST KILLING MONSTERS. IT'S THEIR OWN FORM OF XP SINCE THEY ALSO CAN'T USE ANY SKILLS, JUST THE ONES THEY INHERITED,"
"I see… so your stats will eventually get much higher than mine,"
"THAT'S ONLY NATURAL. IT MAKES UP FOR OUR LACK OF SKILLS… WE ARE LIKE THE OPPOSITE OF HUMANS… WELL, I GUESS IT'S THE SAME FOR MONSTERS, ANGELS, AND DEMONS AS WELL,"
"Wait, explain more on that,"
While waiting for Paimons answer, I jumped up and sent a punch right at Paimons face, which he blocked with ease. We then continued to exchange hundreds of blows while continuing our conversation. This served as a nice warm-up before Aika and I's spar.
"IT MAKES SENSE THAT YOU DON'T KNOW MUCH ABOUT HUMANS SINCE YOU LIVE IN SUCH A REMOTE PART OF THE PLANE. HUMANS HAVE THE STATUS AS WELL, AND THEY HAVE AN UNLIMITED LEVEL CAP. BUT, INCREASING THEIR STATS IS EXTREMELY HARD SINCE THEY CAN ONLY DO THAT THROUGH TITLES AND MASTERING DIFFERENT BUFFING SKILLS.
THE MAIN REASON WHY HUMANS STILL EXIST TO THIS DAY IS DUE TO THEIR INTELLIGENCE, POPULATION, AND HEFTY AMOUNT OF SKILLS… BUT MASTER IS CREEPING CLOSE TO THE REALM OF SKILL HEAVY HUMANS,"
"I see…"
Using Paimons massive height to my advantage, I kick his knee cap, causing it to cave in. He takes a knee while blocking my incoming punch that tried to catch him off guard.
"About Lucifer, can I beat him?"
"LUCIFER IS A WOMAN, BY THE WAY. I DON'T BLAME YOU THOUGH, MOST DEMONS WITHIN THE DEMON TERRITORY STILL BELIEVE SHE IS A GUY,"
"I see… now answer my question,"
"AH YES… PARDON MY RUDENESS, BUT AT YOUR LEVEL RIGHT NOW, YOU HAVE NO WAY OF BEATING HER. YOU MIGHT HAVE AS MANY SKILLS AS HER, BUT HER STATS ARE WAY ABOVE YOURS. MY STATS WHEN I WAS ONE OF THE TEN KINGS OF HELL IS STILL MUCH HIGHER THAN YOUR CURRENT STATS,"
"Well, I wasn't thinking of challenging her anytime soon,"
"IT'S NICE TO HAVE A GOAL, BUT YOU SHOULD GROW STRONGER AND NOT JUST YOURSELF, BUT ALSO GROW YOUR ARMY, THE POWER OF YOUR SUBORDINATES, SERVANTS, AND WIVES,"
"Of course..."
