Reincarnated As A Wolf With Cheats

138 A Fast Attacker - Part 3: The Thief [2]

It was as if he was stuck in a pit. Without anyone else's help, he wouldn't be able to get out.

Unfortunately, he couldn't ask Terran for help because his HP had lowered way too much.

Not that Terran didn't want to help, it's just that his body refused to move.

He was bleeding because of the strong explosive hit which shook his entire body. Since he had no scales and experienced such an attack, his brain could hardly understand what had happened so it wasn't responding well – an exaggeration of course.

In any case, Shin had to think of a way that would let him get out of the so-called pit.

Well, it took him no more than 10 seconds to realize that there was quite an easy way to get out of the problem.

'Yes…'

'I can do that, but…'

'I have to sacrifice another skill of mine…', was what he said to himself while the continuous barrage of attack continued.

"Master!", Terran shouted and somehow stood up.

He was trying to come and help Shin however his body was refusing to listen to him after getting shocked from the attack after a long time.

Terran fell on the ground again while looking up towards Shin when suddenly he found him grinning.

*grin*

It was as if he had something under his sleeve.

'Master is smiling…?'

It hadn't been that long since Terran had been with Shin, however even with the short time, he had come to learn many things about Shin's personality.

Of course, he knew that Shin would never smile meaninglessly in such a dire situation.

'Yes, with this I will be able to get my skills back…', was what Shin said.

Wait what? Not only could he stop the beast from stealing his skills but also could get his stolen skills back?

It would be interesting to see what way he had thought of that would give him two in one benefits.

While he was thinking of a skill to use, he found another thing about the skill that the beast was using – it couldn't steal the skill which had been activated long before and had been the same for a long time – Aura control.

'Yes…'

'The skill that I will have to sacrifice for this is…'

'You!'

'Ding'

[ You have used the skill Flame Wave ]

[ A wave of flame will be emitted out of your body ]

Just like the waves that crash on the rocks near the seashore, a wave of fire suddenly got emitted from Shin's body.

It emerged from his body and started to travel in all directions except the directions – towards the ground and the sky.

'Ding'

[ Your skill Flame Wave has been stolen ]

Shin noticed the message however that message actually marked the completion of the stealing process.

Shin had observed that the beast had used the skill steal earlier when one of his eyes started to glow with white light.

Yes, just as it stepped back to dodge the flames, it used the steal.

So what would Shin do at the moment? If he were to wait for the Flame wave to be stolen, then he would have achieved nothing!

All this thinking would be for naught.

Fortunately, he really had a tactic in his mind.

Right before the notification – Your skill Flame Wave has been stolen – appeared, there was another notification which Shin didn't bother to read.

"…"

'Ding'

[ You have used the skill Copy ]

[ You have copied the skill Steal from the foe ]

[ You have gained a new active skill – Steal Lv.1 ]

[ -> Dual Eye skill ]

[ -> Can be used with one eye with lesser effects ]

[ -> Steals foe's skills permanently with the exact level ]

[ -> Can steal skills with +2 level than the skill 'steal' ]

[ -> When 1 eye is used, all skills will be labeled as Lv.1 ]

*grin*

This was Shin's plan. He would use the skill copy to get the skill with which the beast was stealing his skills.

Now basically he could steal all his skills back.

Shin knew not what 'Dual Eye' skill meant because this was the first time he had seen something like that.

But after reading the description of the skills, he understood what it meant exactly.

[ Dual Eye Skill -> Skill's major function works when both the eyes are fine ]

[ -> Can be used by a being with only two or fewer eyes ]

'I see…'

'So I can steal my foe's skill without any change in level as long as I use both of my eyes?'

He understood that part perfectly and it was indeed a good thing.

However, he immediately got a question in his mind – 'Why isn't he using both the eyes to steal the level too?'

Since Shin had used the flame wheel, the area got brighter.

Since there was grass here and there, they caught fire so the light persisted even after the skill was stolen and the flame wave was shut.

In this, Shin noticed that the beast's one eye had some sort of dagger mark on it.

Of course, he was grinning all this time, but now he finally understood what a problematic situation the beast had.

Also, because of the light, he could finally see the beast – at least that's what he thought.

But the beast was fast so it ran away from Shin's sight.

The beast used the skill Dash and tried to attack Shin again.

However, Shin was now a step ahead, he could steal his Dash back. But he had something to worry about.

'Just how long will this stealing battle continue?'

'I will steal now and then he will steal it…'

'Then I would have to steal again…'

It would be a problem and nothing else.

*scratch*

*slash*

*splash*

Because Shin wasn't moving and was immersed in his thoughts, an attack struck him real hard.

"Master!", Terran shouted as he saw Shin losing balance.

Terran was bewildered when he saw this, but something else surprised him at the moment.

It was the big smile which Shin had despite being hit by an attack.

'Why don't I steal its 'steal' skill?'

"…"
