I Got Reincarnated As a Lizard

Haah...

I've been bored for more than a week since I was reincarnated into another world. Well, maybe that's enough; I'm not really counting because I'm always trying to learn how to walk so that my steps are steady.

Now I can walk without falling, although sometimes my mom and dad find me cute. Being in a cave is very boring, even though occasionally I'm taken out to the cave's edge.

Here, deep in the forest, I don't know where I am. I can't even ask because my mouth can't speak yet.

I also don't know why, but every time I try to talk, what comes out sounds more like a roar.

Sometimes my mom tells stories about the cruelty of humans. She really hates humans; I don't know why. My mom says, "If you meet a human, you must run!" Are humans that terrifying here?

Haah... it's already night here, so my mom and dad are asleep. I can't sleep. What should I do? Wait, let me check my status. Since then, I haven't checked my status again.

'Status'

NAME: EVA SCARLET

RACE: DARK LIZARD

LEVEL: 1 (0%)

HP: 200

MP: 90

STR: 9

AGI: 9

INT: 13

DEX: 9

VIT: 9

STAT POINT: 0

SKILLS:

[APPRAISAL I] [CLAW STRIKE I] [DASH I] [UNIVERSAL MULTILINGUAL]

UNIQUE SKILLS:

[PRIDE] [WISDOM]

TITLE:

(REINCARNATOR)

My level is still level 1. How do I level up? Is it by killing monsters? My mom is level 40 and my dad is level 46.

It seems that I get stat points when I level up. Hmm, HP must be Health Points.

(HP/HEALTH POINT)

{HP WILL INCREASE ACCORDING TO VIT STAT. IF HP REACHES 0, YOU WILL DIE.}

So if my HP drops to 0, I will die? And VIT, the higher the VIT stat, the more HP I have. It seems like that. Hmm, MP must be Magic Points.

(MP/MAGIC POINT)

{MP WILL INCREASE AND REGENERATE ACCORDING TO INT STAT.}

So there's magic in this world? I'm not surprised since this is another world. Does that mean I can also use magic? If it's like the isekai stories I've read in novels, using magic involves closing your eyes and feeling the flow of magic within your body.

I immediately tried that method and closed my eyes.

Feel the sensation...

Suddenly, I felt warm currents flowing through my body. After that, I imagined fire in my hands.

'FIRE!!'

I opened my eyes, and nothing happened. Haah...

I sighed. So it doesn't work, huh? But when I felt the magic within me, I sensed those warm currents. Let me try again.

'FIRE BALL!! WATER BALL!!'

And still nothing. Haah, I really wanted to use magic. Well, maybe I'll try again later. Let me check my status again. Hmmm...

(STR/STRENGTH)

{THE HIGHER YOUR STR STAT, THE STRONGER YOU ARE}

(AGI/AGILITY)

{THE HIGHER YOUR AGI STAT, THE FASTER YOU ARE}

(INT/INTELLIGENCE)

{THE HIGHER YOUR INT STAT, THE MORE MP YOU WILL HAVE AND YOUR INTELLIGENCE WILL INCREASE}

(DEX/DEXTERITY)

{THE HIGHER YOUR DEX STAT, THE SHARPER YOUR SENSES}

Okay, so basically STR is strength, AGI is agility, INT is intelligence, and DEX is dexterity. Hmmm, why is my INT stat higher than the others? Is it because I'm smart?

Hehehe, I am smart I always ranked first in school. Well, that's also because I had a hard time socializing and often read books.

Let me check my skills. Hmmm, I already know about [APPRAISAL], let's try [CLAW STRIKE].

[CLAW STRIKE I]

{ATTACK AN ENEMY USING CLAWS}

Is that all the explanation? Well, from the name [CLAW STRIKE], it makes sense. Hmmm, let's try [DASH].

[DASH I]

{RUN FAST IN A DESIGNATED DIRECTION}

Run fast? How fast? Should I try the skill?

I slowly tried to get up, being careful not to wake my mom and dad. My feet moved toward the cave's edge to try my skill. Hmm, I'll try it here.

'DASH!'

Suddenly my legs moved on their own and ran forward. SREEEET! WAAAAAAHHH DUKK! I fell down.

'Ouch...'

What was that? My legs moved on their own. I looked at my mom and dad; they were still asleep. Thank goodness. When I activated the DASH skill, it felt like I was sprinting, and I couldn't control my legs properly. Huuh, I'll try again.

'DASH!'

SREEEET! Huh, luckily I didn't fall. Well, I'm afraid my mom and dad will wake up. I sat at the cave's edge while looking at what other skills I had.

Now it's time for the unique skills. I'm curious. Unique skills mean rare skills, right? I don't know, but let's just check.

[PRIDE]

{CAN COPY ENEMY SKILLS, REQUIRES APPRAISAL LEVEL 5 TO COPY SKILLS AND CAN ONLY COPY ONCE EVERY 3 DAYS}{PASSIVE: ALL STATS INCREASE BY 25%}

'Woooah...'I was shocked! I can copy skills? But I need Appraisal level 5. But I can copy someone's skill! Isn't this skill a bit overpowered? And what's with the 25% stat increase? This is so OP.

it means my stats are higher than those who are just born. Can I become the strongest person in this world? 'HAHAHAHA!' Alright, there's still one skill left that I haven't checked.

[WISDOM]

{IF YOU NAME A LIVING BEING BY ACTIVATING THIS SKILL, THAT LIVING BEING WILL BECOME STRONGER. CAN ONLY BE USED ONCE A WEEK AND CANNOT NAME A BEING STRONGER THAN THE USER}

{PASSIVE: INT STAT INCREASES BY 50%}

Naming a living being? And that being becomes stronger? So if I activate this skill and name someone, the person I name will become stronger? Besides that, my INT increases by 50%!

No wonder my INT stat is higher than the others. Isn't this skill just as overpowered as the PRIDE skill? I got two unique skills that are overpowered in my reincarnation to another world. Isn't that lucky?

'Hoooaamm...' I'm sleepy; I've been checking my status for a long time. It seems like it's already midnight, and I fell asleep.

'Author POV'

??? : "How is the investigation going?"

??? : "Yes, Sir, I investigated around the cave and found a Dark Lizard looking for food in the area."

??? : "Hmm, good. Hehehe... Within a week, deploy the extermination squad from the adventurers!"

??? : "Yes, Sir!"
