Chapter 002 - Job and Race (Edited)
'System, can I choose a different race even though I'm a human right now?' Raido asked.
[Of course that is why it's in the option.]
"..."
Raido took thirty minutes to choose, he inspects all available options and weighed their pros and cons though he is not really a pro gamer by any standards.
For example, It would be really cool to be a vampire but the sun will kill him so that is a no-no. The werewolf would be much shittier. Who would want to be a mutt with no control over their body when a full moon came up?
Then Raido saw an option that seemed interesting, 'Slenderman? Slenderman is a race!? System, can you give the Slenderman race description?'
Raido remembered Slenderman from the internet and thought they were as powerful as they are mysterious.
[Affirmative, Presenting description…]
[Slenderman race originates from the planet Plump. They are a special race that have ranging of supernatural abilities]
[Race Ability: Teleportation, Fog Manipulation, Stretching, Mind Manipulation, Extreme Physical Damage Resistance.]
'I Choose that one!' Raido said Instantly, his teenage brain got overwhelmed by how large the number of skills is. Even A-rank hunters don't have that many skills.
[Race chosen, Changing Genetics.]
[Deploying Sound Proofing.]
"Why do I need sound proofing? What is this, why do I feel like my blood is boiling? Oh god no…" Raido clenches his teeth as an exploding amount of pain entered his body. He can't hold it much longer as finally starts screaming to his heart's content.
After an hour of unending pain, Raido finally felt relieved.
[DNA Modified Successfully.]
[Removing Sound Proofing.]
Raido quickly remembers that Slenderman has no face, so he hurriedly grabs a mirror to check his appearance.
'Thank God, I still look the same,' Raido sigh in relief.
Sensing his distress the system prompts information.
[The information about Slendermen is wrong in this world. They are actually masters of mind manipulation and can take the shape of whatever they want to be.]
'Do I need to eat some humans?' Raido asked, Right now he really feel so dumb that he didn't asked this question before he pick this race.
[Slendermen don't eat humans, They absorb their souls to strengthen themselves although Slendermen have restrictions in absorbing souls. Slendermen need to appear in their target's dream before they can absorb someone's soul. Slendermen can survive for a hundred years without absorbing any souls.]
'That is good, I don't want to hunt humans to survive,' Raido said as another air of relief escaped from his mouth.
[Absorbing one's soul is worse than eating and killing them, absorbing one's soul meant that they wouldn't have a chance to reincarnate or live again...ever.]
Raido rubbed the back of his head and with an awkward chuckle he said, "Remind me to only do that to worst of people, please show me the job list."
After a while, Thinks that thunder wizard is the perfect match for Slenderman.since there are really no synergies for this type of race.

"Raido, I will going to the groceries do you want something?" Raido's mom questioned.
"I'm fine for now mom, is dad going with you? He needs to get some fresh air," Raido replied.
"Ohh that is a good idea, I will take him with me," His mom said in a sweet voice..
After a while, Raido heard the sound of their vehicle leaving. This is his queue to test his powers.
[System advises the host to use his status points because the Host can't earn any by training.]
'That is a huge nerf! I'm not even strong yet!' Raido shouted with rage inside his mind.
Raido decided to Increase his strength by 3, agility by 3, and int by 4.

"It seems like I've gotten stronger but still an E-rank, that's sucks," Raido said. "Nevermind, I will try some skills."
After hours of experiments, Raido felt tired and noticed that his MP was running low. Raido lay down on his bed and thought.
'Thunder Speed increases my agility and sense by 50% if activated, Good for a surprise attack or strategic retreat.'
'Stretching as the name suggests, I can stretch any part of my body. In the stretching process my body will turn like a black sand.'
'Fog Manipulation is good for obstructing my targets view, couple with thunder speed it will be the ultimate assassination combo.'
'Teleportation seems so demanding in MP, I just teleported here and there, some small distance teleportation and I'm already feeling tired.'
'I can't practice Mind Manipulation as of now, I don't have any target to use it.'
'Extreme physical damage resistance, the name explains itself. I am not immune to physical damage but I can pretty much ignore low level attacks.'
'Lightning Blast, I can shoot lightning in my palm and fingers…simple and cool..'
