Kumo Desu ga, Nani ka? Chapter 97

Chapter 97.

望遠 = Telephoto
Changed Body Life to Constitution
97 The eight passes

《Skill proficiency reached. Skill 『Enhanced Vision LV9』 has become 『Enhanced Vision LV10』》
《Conditions met. Skill 『Telephoto LV1』 was derived from Skill 『Enhanced Vision LV10』》

Yosh!
Finally, the skill level of "Enhanced Vision" reached the max level.
The reward of reaching the max level of "Enhanced Vision" is a new derived skill.
Let's appraise it immediately and examine its effect.

Telephoto:It becomes possible to see the distant scenery by magnification』

Ah, it's exactly as stated.
Mmm.
Strange.
The five senses skills are advantages plainly, but the derived skill is also plain.
For the time being, let's activate it.

Thus, Body in charge, activate "Telephoto"!
Request acknowledged, "Telephoto" activate!

Oh?
Ooh?
Oooh!?
Ah, this is amazing.
I'm sorry that I said that you are plain.

An image magnified by "Telephoto" in my view and the image of my former view, these two deployed at the same time.
Although I thought that all of my views magnified like the telescope, it looks like I can activate it with one eye.
Although a person will be confused by the different information from the image usually, well, there are two of me.
There's no confusion at all if I allot the work.

Although the magnification rate is low and the range is short because its level is low now, it might be convenient if its level rises.
For example, when "Detection" discovers an enemy lurking around, I can stare at it with "Telephoto" while securing normal view.
Un un.
This skill is also like a passive skill because there's no MP consumption.
This seems to be quite useful, so I should keep it activated and raise its level.

I know you are getting excited, but Information in charge.
What is it, Body in charge?
I found a prey in the scenery seen with "Telephoto".
Ou, immediately useful, what a lovely guy.
Should I kill it quickly?
That goes without saying.
Aye, aye, Sir.

Thus, nearing the enemy quietly.
Because it's impossible to use my sickle by the self-destruction of "Corrosion Attack" in the last time, I will pour Deadly Spider Poison on it using "Poison Synthesis".
The monster's HP exhausted in an instant.
It's power is dreadful as usual.

《Experience points has reached a certain degree. Individual, Zoa Ere LV2 has become LV3》
《Every basic ability rose》
《Level Up Bonus:Skill Proficiency was acquired》
《Skill proficiency reached. Skill 『Visible Range Expansion LV2』 has become 『Visible Range Expansion LV3』》
《Skill proficiency reached. Skill 『Life LV9』 has become 『Life LV10』》
《Conditions met. Skill 『Life LV10』 has evolved into Skill 『Constitution LV1』》
《Skill points gained》

Oh, level up just came.
My sickle has also recovered after shedding.
And, finally, one of the status strengthening skills evolved.
Let's appraise it.

Constitution:A bonus of skill level×10 is added to the HP. And, a growth correction equivalent to the skill level is added when level up』

Should say that it's as expected? It's the same group as "Herculean Strength".
That means, if the other status strengthening skills evolve, growth corrections will come together with it.
If possible, I want to raise it earlier than usual, but I will have to endure until I escape from the middle layer.
I want to go to somewhere safe quick.

And, the long waited!
My skill point became 100 by level up!
Now, is there an evil eye-type skill added in the list?

Evil Eye of Curse(100):Inflicts curse attribute damage to things that enter your line of sight』
Evil Eye of Extinction(100):Inflicts corrosion attribute damage to things that enter your line of sight』
Evil Eye of Paralysis(100):Inflicts paralysis attribute damage to things that enter your line of sight』
Evil Eye of Petrifaction(100):Inflicts petrifaction attribute damage to things that enter your line of sight』
Evil Eye of Disturb(100):Inflicts heresy attribute effect 「Disturb」 to things that enter your line of sight』
Evil Eye of Phantom Pain(100):Inflicts heresy attribute effect  「Phantom Pain」 to things that enter your line of sight』
Evil Eye of Insanity(100):Inflicts heresy attribute effect 「Insanity」 to things that enter your line of sight』
Evil Eye of Charm(100):Inflicts heresy attribute effect 「Charm」 to things that enter your line of sight』
Evil Eye of Hypnosis(100):Inflicts heresy attribute effect 「Hypnosis」 to things that enter your line of sight』
Evil Eye of Fear(100):Inflicts heresy attribute effect 「Fear」 to things that enter your line of sight』


Uwa.
It's really added.
Such skills shouldn't have been in the list before.
I mean, there are many kinds.
I must choose one from this.
I'm troubled.

Information in charge.
What is it, Body in charge?
Why not acquire several of them?
Eh, what do you mean?
Did you know? I have eight eyes, you know?
What's with it?
In other words, can't I activate eight evil eyes at the same time?
!? You, are you a genius!?
Fufufu. Yes, I was a genius.
Seriously? I see, I was a genius. If I'm a genius, then I will be forgiven even if I do anything!
That's right. Isn't it amazing that eight evil eyes can be activated at the same time?
Amazing. That's really amazing. Dream will spread.
Because "Telephoto" is using one, there are seven left.
When thinking that the normal view must be secured, there are six left.
That's right. Choose one this time, and the remaining five will be acquired immediately after the skill points are accumulated, OK?
OK OK. So, which evil eye do you think is good, Body in charge?
I think that the attribute we don't have like curse or petrifaction is good. Heresy attribute is more antipersonnel rather than fighting against monster.
Yeah. I would choose curse if it's me. We have experienced the petrifaction by the petrifaction lizard in the upper layer, and it's effect needs time.
Though the power is high when it takes more time. After all, here, I would pick the safest one, curse.
As expected from me. You understand it.
Right?

Thus, let's acquire "Evil Eye of Curse".

Curse:Weakens every ability, and deal damage to HP, MP, SP』

    1. I had hoped that she would learn magic manipulation and learn how to use her magic skills.
      That would give her better power up than any other eye skill out there.

  2. I... Don't think evil eye is very worth it. Why the sudden spend thrift-ness when you saved up in the beginning. :(

    5. Why not? With all of those evil eye skills, she can simultaneously cast all of them with her eyes. Hmm... now that I think about it... isn't her choice in skills getting more and more sadistic?

    6. I think she will become a demon.. XD Maybe the Demonking/queen when she aquired all sins.

    7. She's spending them up because she has the points. She's always done that when she has the points, you know? The only time she didn't was immediately after getting Pride and being wondering about what she could and couldn't pick up without using points.

  3. Eh!? not 'Evil Eye of Charm', seriously?

    1. You already answered your own question.

      Kumo-chan doesn't need it.

  4. I would get eight regardless. It's not like you need telephoto on all the time. Then if you're caught by a strong enemy you can blast all eight at once. I assume you can turn them off.

  5. You should change [Body Life] to [Constitution]. It sounds better and they mean the same thing.

  7. Thanks for the chapter!

  8. "Deal curse attribute damage to the thing that comes into sight" -> "Inflicts curse-type damage to things that enter your line of sight"

    I think "type" sounds more fluid than "attribute" here. So "curse-type damage". If you don't like that though, then don't worry about it.

    "Deal heresy attribute 「Fear」 effect to the thing that comes into sight" -> "Inflicts the heresy attribute effect 「Fear」to things that enter your line of sight"

  9. lol why not use all 8 for petrification, might be faster, though curse seems OP :)
    I hope she can turn her head now as she evolved away from the spider, which makes it easier to aim the evil eyes :P also hypnotism sounds fun, though might be for when we see humans again

  10. Haa... no evil eye of death perception?

    1. Would that be an "evil" eye? It was mentioned that every skill is combat-related, death perception doesn't provide power over death.

  12. I would've picked paralysis... Having your prey sit still (paralysed), so you can deal damage/eat them. Why not?

  14. If she picked charm or hypnosis she could make the fish leave the magma and come to her.

    1. Yeah! She's already got so many battle focused abilities, a little utility would be nice by now. We need a Kumoko stomach-in-charge to remind her about the catfish obsession! CAAAAAAAAATTTTTTTTFIIIIISSHHH~~~

  16. Somehow I felt that the body in charge is somehow smarter than information in charge though...

    1. Well, from a logical standpoint information in charge has to devote a lot of thinking power to processing information...

  17. I thought Petrification of been the best, I mean thats why a medusa is so deadly. But she was right, its a weak version so it acts slowly. In that case I felt Hypotheses looked good, and Fear might of been badass or instanity. "bathe in my presence and fear me!" would be an interesting entrance :p

  18. nuuuuu kumo-chan, the evil eye sounds bad so you might get bad side effects! :(

    ReplyDelete
  19. hahahahaha the moment i saw the list of evil eye effects i thought she can live out her chuuni days in full glory, then again, Miss spidy, isn't this a one way road to get Taboo to lvl 10?? .-.''
