My World Traveling System: The Harbinger Of Death

The Great Giant Bat, the Boss Monster that spawned after defeating twenty Giant Bats quickly met its end by the hands of Frank, as its body dissipated into black smoke while leaving a few items behind.

"What items will it drop now?" wondered Frank with a smile, as he saw the classical red potion and the magic crystal, alongside a Skill Book and a bracelet.

​​

"Oh damn, even a bracelet! And is that… A Skill Book too! So strong monsters such as Bosses can drop Skill Books! This is getting way better now! It is finally my time to shine?" wondered Frank as he talked to himself like a maniac while inspecting the Skill Book, which depicted what seemed to be a person conjuring green winds around itself.

[Skill Book: Gust (D-Grade)]

A Skill Book that teaches the 'Gust' Skill, giving the user the ability to unleash a small amount of gust (wind) around itself.

Cooldown: None.

"It's the same Skill that the bat used…! Does that mean that I can get special Monster Skills through these wonderful Skill Books? Nice… Wait, how good would it be? The description seems rather underwhelming… Should I learn it or sell it?" wondered Frank.

After a few minutes of thinking, Frank decided on learning the Gust Skill, while constantly using it alongside his other Skills to increase its proficiency as much as he desired.

[You learned the [Gust: Level 1] Skill!]

Frank then spent around seven hours grinding out Giant Bats, which seemed to be the only monster in this Hunting Domain, managing to defeat the Boss six times, which brought him a treasure trove of 'low grade' items.

"Over eighty Rank 1 Magic Crystals! Three more Skill Books, two of Gust and another of Sonar Wave, and three more accessories… I should keep what's good for me and then sell the rest tomorrow… Man, I am beat…" Frank said, as he deactivated the Hunting Domain and glanced at his gains.

[The Levels of the [Dirt: Level 1], [Body Aura: Level 1], [Bronze Skin: Level 1], [Gust: Level 1], [Detection: Level 1], and [Inspect: Level 1] Skills have increased!]

[Your level has raised to 8!]

[Your level has raised to 9!]

"Haah, damn. What a nice grinding session. I am approaching level 10, what will happen then? Will I be able to change Jobs maybe?"

Frank glanced at the Sonar Wave Skill as he decided to learn the Skill, as it seemed that it might pair well with his Detection skill to facilitate his ability to detect things from far away by spreading sound waves.

[You acquired the [Sonar Wave: Level 1] Skill!]

"Now that we got that out of the way… I will equip these four accessories… It seems that there isn't much restriction, as I can equip a ring for each finger and bracelets at each hand, it's not like in some games where there is usually a limit of only four rings and such…" said Frank, glancing at the accessories dropped while equipping them through the System interface.

[Great Giant Bat's Dark Bracelet (D-Grade)] x2

A Black-colored bracelet dropped by the Great Giant Bat Boss, enhances magic, mana, and resistance.

Stat Bonuses: [+5 Magic], [+5 MP], [+5 Resistance]

Skill Bonuses: None.

Special Effects: Lesser Magic Enhancement, Lesser Mana Recovery Increase.

[Great Giant Bat's Dark Ring (D-Grade)] x2

A Black-colored ring dropped by the Great Giant Bat Boss, enhances magic, mana, and resistance.

Stat Bonuses: [+5 Magic], [+5 MP], [+5 Resistance]

Skill Bonuses: None.

Special Effects: Lesser Magic Enhancement, Lesser Mana Recovery Increase.

Both the bracelets and the rings were two of each, and their stat bonuses were also identical, making Frank stronger both in magic and magic resistance, while it would also bring extra Mana.

Frank still had to see how much Mana people in Terra could have through his Inspection, but he suspected that he might be reaching the amount that those at the Middle Stage of Rank 1 could have.

"But even when my Mana increases, my cultivation does not, which means that the amount of Mana I have does not correlate with the quality and power of my Mana Core like Gwendolyn said… Then I guess I will have to grind Mana Cores from Monsters to increase my cultivation… I wonder if I can create an Instant Domain there… Ah, I am beat, I will go to sleep at Terra and wake up there… I miss Ruby…" said Frank, as he teleported to Terra, where he appeared right above his bed, he quickly closed his eyes as he wished himself a good sleep.

-----

Frank's consciousness dived in dreams for a while, until he was sucked elsewhere, appearing in a rather familiar place.

"Jungles… and this warm sun of summer… Ah, Abraddon's place?" wondered Frank, as he walked around the vast and loud jungle filled with various types of animals until he finally found the clearing within, where a large shadow loomed.

Frank met Abraddon again, who was currently licking his fur.

"Abraddon…? Am I interrupting you from your bath?" asked Frank.

"Eh? Oh! No, no, Frank, welcome back," said Abraddon with a friendlier tone of voice than before. Although his chimeric appearance was as intimidating as always.

Frank then walked near him as he noticed that the God was not simply licking his fur, but large, bloody wounds spread across his back, which Frank did not see the previous time they met.

"Were those wounds there before? I don't remember seeing them," asked Frank.

"Well… Yes, I just did not show you them, I often hide them from any eye, but I was just washing them today…" said Abraddon.

"You're a god, right? Just what happened to you to get wounds like those?" asked Frank.

"Hm… I got them long ago when I quarreled with my siblings, they were actually larger before, they had healed quite a bit since then…" said Abraddon.

"I-I see… I hope that you are on good terms with them…" muttered Frank.

"Not so much. Anyways, did you bring what I asked you for?" asked Abraddon.

"…Yep, all I could find. From savory snacks, sweet snacks, drinks, books, light novels, and manga… it all cost a little fortune, but I was strong enough to make good money in my world…" said Frank, as he glanced at Abraddon's three heads' eyes flash in excitement as if he were a young child, the enormous amount of snacks had almost startled him.

The God quickly opens the snack bags through small tentacles that surge from within his chest, beginning to taste the delicious potato chips inside.

"Nom… Nom… Oh! It is really spicy as you said! Amazing! There are simply no snacks like these in here! What a delight! Ahh, I can't stop eating!" said Abraddon, eating more and more potatoes, finishing several bags in the span of a few minutes. Then, the god proceeded to drink several cans of soup, flavored milk, flavored tea, and other drinks.

After a few minutes, he sighed in relief, as if a bit satisfied.

"You've done good, champion! You may leave now until I call you for more snacks," he said.

"Wait, before leaving, can I ask you a few things? Like, did you know how much commotion would your divine protection bring to me in Terra? I am a human after all, have you ever given your divine protection to a human?" asked Frank.

"Ah, that… I guess I did not think about it well enough. And no, I have not. I can understand why my children would seem… a bit envious. But you are strong, so I believe you should be fine, right?" said Abraddon with a very carefree tone.

"Sigh… I suppose. It is not like I will ask you to take it out, the benefits that it gives clearly outweigh the negative effects. Anyways, goodnight, I am back to bed," said Frank, as he left Abraddon's Divine Realm.

"Hmm… I might have not thought this out in detail…" muttered Abraddon as he began to chew into several pokies at the same time with his goat head.
