So I'm a Snake, So What? (Kumodesu x OC)

16 - Monster Cooperation

Fritz was unable to evade the magic attack that was set into motion beneath his feet by the Earth Dragon Araba after his sudden switch in nature and boost in power. Seeing as the bat had yet to begin a maneuver to evade the stone spear jutting from the ground, the Ruined Knight took it upon himself to protect him, and wound up with a sharpened, magic-infused spike of rock shooting through his abdomen.

Son of a...

Crimson red splattered across the otherwise colorless stone floor, reflecting the faint glow of the fire surrounding the source of the current predicament.

'His extra HP kept him alive, but he's still bleeding like crazy... He's got HP Auto-Recovery, though, LV8 at that, he should recover soon enough. '

Fritz...

'What's up?'

...Remember how I said we should play this subtle? Forget that.

'Huh?'

I said forget it! This bastard dies, right here, right now! If he thinks he can just get away with damaging my property, he's got one major fucking reality check coming!!

'Dude, are you nuts? The gap in our stats was already huge, but now that Araba's gone berserk, it's even bigger!'

I can see that, dumbass. You saw what he did just now, right?

'Impaled the rat?'

...No... I'm talking about how he went from skill to skill during the whole transformation thing. He went from Fire Magic to Flame Magic and then immediately to Inferno Magic. It would've made sense if he just bought Inferno Magic immediately, but instead, he went through the levels. And his Skill Points went down as he did.

'They did? He did that?'

...Yes, Fritz... He did that.

'So, that means I can spend Skill Points to level up skills, right?'

...

'Gotcha... Wait-- But, how did you figure that out? I haven't used Appraisal on him.'

For fuck's sake, stay on topic! We need to think of something to take him down.

'Right... Appraisal!'
