Reincarnated with an Analysis system.-Chapter 2 The Grim I Killed
Sato moved back after spotting the being, his heart rate began speeding up as fear took over.
He wasn't sure of what the monster was but he was sure of the emotions he was feeling at the moment.
The air felt toxic and it was like death itself was the one coming towards him, taking a few steps back, he looked to his back to see if there would be a road he could escape to.
"The hell is that... no wait I might be exaggerating here, sure would be easier if I could tell what it was..." Sato thought to himself as he took his steps backward.
<<Notice, The skill Perception has been obtained>>
<<Caution I detect a Level A monster making its way towards us, I'd advise avoiding combat with it as you haven't acquired enough information to take on such an enemy>>?
A female monotonous voice suddenly voiced in Sato's head, he kept moving back while still keeping his eyes on the blurry figure in front of him.
"What was that!"
Sato paused for a bit, looking around the area, wondering where the voice came from, 'Was that my imagination?' He thought to himself.
He changed his focus back to the figure and saw that it hadn't moved from its position, the only thing Sato could make out was the green glowing eyes.
Sato sighed in relief before giving an awkward smirk, "I must be losing it, this place is giving me the-"
"Shskkrrrrr!"
The monster suddenly whooshed out of the fog, sending a powerful strike at Sato with its scythe.
Sato, shocked, leaned to his back as he watched the scythe speed past his head and cut a piece of his hair.
He wasn't sure how he was able to dodge such an attack, but that was the least of his worries at the moment.
"Shit shit shit, it's a freaking monster!"
Sato yelled, He immediately ran away from the grim reaper, panting as he kept running in between the trees.
"What the hell was that?" Sato panicked, taking a sharp turn to the left.
<<Notice, Treat is a rank A monster known as a grim reaper, they are known to guide souls to the afterlife and there's a possibility that's the reason for its attack>>
"It thinks I'm dead?! I'm not dead! Why is it coming after me?"
Sato jumped down from a small cliff only to find himself at a dead-end that was covered in rocks.
"Of course, it's a dead end." Sato turned and was about to take another route when the grim reaper appeared in front of him.
"Hey! You've got the wrong guy! I'm not dead!" Sato yelled, looking at the way the grim reaper's eyes were glowing.
The grim reaper had a dark hooded cloak on and was holding a dark scythe that was oozing with dark energy.
The grim reaper suddenly whooshed toward Sato again, "Damn it, quit coming after me?" Sato was able to dodge the attack again.𝒇𝔯e𝚎𝘄𝑒𝑏𝙣𝑜𝚟𝗲𝑙.c𝘰𝚖
He took to his feet and began running, looking back to see the grim reaper still chasing him, "it really wants to kill me that badly? Damn!" Sato muttered.
<<Taking on such a foe shouldn't be a problem, your skill Conceal is a perfect counter for a being like this, Shall I activate it?>>
"Skill? Is this one of those RPG kinda skills?" Sato asked, he felt his body getting sucked in from behind.
Looking back, he saw the grim reaper raising his scythe to the sky, a dark mist-like vacuum began sucking everything inside its dark hole, Sato included.
Sato screamed, holding on to a tree branch but that wasn't enough, his hands slipped and he went flying toward the grim reaper.
Upon getting close, the grim reaper held Sato's neck and pushed him to the ground, it began roaring, sucking all of Sato's life force from his body.
Sato struggled to get free as his face began to decay from the grim reaper's touch.
He was slowly starting to lose his hair and his eyes were losing their color, he could feel his life nearing an end.
Using the last of his strength he voiced out while holding the bony hand of the grim reaper "Activate... it." He stuttered.
<<Command confirmed, Activating the skill, Conceal>>
Sato's right hand began glowing, and a red-like streak showed up on his hands and began networking toward the grim reaper's body.
The grim reaper immediately let go of Sato and tried to get free, but it couldn't get away.
The streaks were like threads, they only got longer, and no matter how many times the Grim reaper tried to use its scythe to cut it down it didn't bodge, instead it networked to the scythe too.
The streaks glowed brightly as it began sucking more of the grim reaper's mana, a slow process but the grim reaper began to lose its strength.
Sato was still on the ground with his dried skin but that didn't stop the threads from speeding out of his fingers.
He was fading but could still hear the painful shriek of the grim reaper was letting out and the immense push of wind that followed.
After a few seconds, the grim reaper turned into dust, it no longer had any magic energy for it to sustain itself and was then destroyed.
The streak returned to Sato's body, sending a huge amount of magic energy back at him.
His body began healing up and was now back to its normal tone, "Wow, I'm alive." Sato yelled.
Before he could stand to his feet, he received a whack to the head and went unconscious on the floor.
. . . . . .
He could hear the sound of females murmuring amongst themselves while he was still in his unconscious state.
He opened his eyes to see three women dressed in a fantasy-like way standing in front of him.
Sato tried to stand up but then noticed that his hands had been chained to the wall and he was locked in a cell.
"Look who's finally awake." One of the women said, she had long blonde hair and carried with her a sword.
"You think, we should call Lady Hime now?" The other female spoke, she was wearing an outfit that covered her face a little giving her a bit of a mysterious vibe.
"I don't think lady Hime would react very well to us, knowing we caught a demon in our domain." The blonde-haired girl uttered, glaring at Sato who was still confused.
'Demon? Are they talking about me?" Sato thought to himself, "No no, demon?".
He suddenly remembered how he absorbed magic energy from the grim reaper that attacked me, "Fantasy dressing, grim reaper, skill… all these look like something that would happen in an anime".
"Isekai!"
Sato yelled, the woman looked at him with a fast gaze wondering why he yelled like that.
Sato ignored their looks and kept on thinking, 'I died... so which means I reincarnated?'
<<Notice: Death in other world left to reincarnation into this world>>
Sato gave an awkward grin, "So I did die? For a second there I thought I might just be in a coma".
<<You were, until a few minutes ago, the fight against the grim reaper stopped your heart>>
"Souka, kinda hard to believe considering I'm still here, and you? Are you some kind of demon that's possing me?" Sato asked.
<<That would be impossible, I am just a skill you acquired during your reincarnation, I have no control over you unless given permission>>
"I have no idea what that means, why did this lady just call me a demon?" Sato thought to himself.
The door to the prison room suddenly opened and Benihime walked in, her outfit was just the same as the women in the room.
She had black long hair, a rocking body and her face were soothing enough to make Sato stare even if it was for some seconds.
She walked toward the cell and looked at Sato who was trying to keep a straight face, so he doesn't show any weakness.
"Isla? You really wanted to keep this from me?" Hime uttered before turning to face the girl with the blonde hair.
"I'm sorry, we didn't want to bother you, I swear." Isla immediately responded with a sad expression.
Benihime sighed, "No need to fret over it, but be sure never to keep a secret from me again".
"It won't happen again." Isla replied after giving a silent squeak.
"Now that that has been cleared up, let's head back to the Giron, you all are due for some questioning".
"Ahh, shit... I think I know how this goes." Sato muttered.
