Reincarnated With A Glitched System: Why Is My MP Not Running Out?
Chapter 154 Ninhursag's Investigation-----
It was another day in the life of Ninhursag. She woke up from the large tree house she had made for herself atop the largest tree in the jungle and ate some food from a pile of fruits she had right after waking up.
"Yawn… Ahh… I want some meat…"
Ninhursag quickly made her way out of her house, jumping out of the window and touching the beak within her necklace. A flash of bright light encompassed her body, and she suddenly turned into a colorful and beautiful bird, resembling a swan, and flew off into the skies.
She flew over the jungle, looking for prey until she found a strange creature she wouldn't usually find in these places, a wandering, green-skinned creature.
"What? A Goblin?"
She flew down and quickly caught the Goblin within her talon's claws.
CLASH!
ραпdα nᴏνɐ| сom "Gryyyarrr…!"
The savage goblin roared, trying to hit the aggressive bird attacking him, but Ninhursag was a merciless warrioress, and just as wild as the forms she could take, she quickly killed the goblin by slashing through its throat using her claws and tearing apart chunks of flesh using her beak.
BUMP!
The corpse quickly fell over the floor, as Ninhursag glared down at it mercilessly… This creature shouldn't belong here, Goblins were not beings that dwelled within these ancient Jungles.
"What's a goblin doing here? Have I been overlooking them this entire time? Or was this a scout?" she wondered.
"I will have to track down their scent later… I am hungry…" she sighed, quickly turning back to her human form, as a beautiful black as charcoal-skinned lady with a slim body and beautiful muscles adorning her body emerged.
Her white-colored tattoos made a beautiful contrast over her skin color, making her look exotic. There were many scars across her skin, they were part of what made her proud of being a warrior.
She grabbed the goblin and carried it away, quickly putting up a fire and roasting the entire creature, while taking away the clothes it had and anything else it was carrying.
She quickly realized it had a small pouch filled with magic crystals…
"Goblins shouldn't be smarter than monkeys, how come this one was collecting so many of these? Did he found them shiny or something? Hmm…"
Ninhursag looked into the crystals while squinting her eyes, she quickly saved them into her pouch and when the goblin was ready, she quickly began to eat it. Goblin meat wasn't the best, it was chewy and a had a strong flavor, but not the good kind of one.
However, this one wasn't so bad, perhaps because she was so hungry, or maybe because she had previously poured some sauce, she got the amazon village the other day. This sauce made of fermented fruits and herbs made anything she ate very flavorful.
Anyone else wouldn't really eat goblins, they were not seen as food by people. However, Ninhursag followed a very simplistic code.
Eat what you hunt.
It was taught to her by her mother when she was a small little girl, the Skin-Changers were a race of people that lived in harmony with nature and ate all sorts of things, favoring fruits and meat.
Whenever they hunted down animals, they would thank the Spirits of the World of Terrarium, and pray for the souls of the ones they had slain.
Even as abhorrent as Goblins were, as a type of humanoid-type monster, Ninhursag didn't discriminate, and decided to eat it to fill her stomach.
"Hmm… The leg is softer… this one wasn't so muscular… It even had a lot of grease. Are these goblins living leisurely?" wondered Ninhursag.
The woman had a strong appetite, after leaving only bones behind, she quickly grabbed a bone that she found held the most "Essence", it was a large fang which the goblins use to tear apart the meat they eat.
"This should do…"
She took out a knife and quickly made a hole out of the fang, and quickly added it to her necklace, filled with fangs and beaks of various animals she had hunted. Her tribe took pride in using these body parts of the animals they hunted as decorations of their bodies.
And well, there was another purpose to it.
"Let's see… I've never tried it out, I wasn't able to become monsters before when I was younger, but now that my Magic has developed…"
Ninhursag touched the goblin fang and gathered mana into it, a sudden change happened into her body as she suddenly found herself in the form of a female goblin.
Female goblins were a bit different than male ones, they were smaller, had hair over their heads, and often had more delicate features. Goblins were not a male-only race but also had their females, which were rarer and more treasured by them, often kept inside their caves or camps, most of the time raised until they could bear children, in such case they would be given several husbands and would give birth constantly to keep the population big.
Unlike some would expect of barbaric creatures such as Goblins, they held a lot of respect and reverence over females due to their rarity, whenever they saw one, they would immediately try to court her through offering gifts, such as meat, fruits, and even shiny magic crystals, or anything, even the corpse of a human they just happened to kill…
Ninhursag learned a lot by simply becoming one. This was part of the magic of the Skin-changers, you not only become the beast or monster you embody, but you also learn about their behaviors and nature, and even their society, if they're intelligent enough, such as goblins…
Using her new form, Ninhursag wandered around the jungle, following the scent left behind by the goblin, until she reached a large settlement… filled with green skinned fellows.
"So many goblins…! When did they got here- Ah! That presence…"
Ninhursag looked into the distance and noticed a large and black aura coming out of the center of the camp.
Something ominous was resting there.
