Eric’s eyes lit up at the mention of healing herbs, if the system menu he saw earlier hadn’t made it clear, this world was closer to your typical rpg than he had expected. He started grabbing as many as he could, lamenting that his lack of pockets or bag meant that he couldn’t carry many of them. Given that the herbs grew on ambient mana, Eric thought that maybe if they grew in a place with more mana around it could improve in quality. All that was left was quietly leaving the area with the herbs in hand, looking over at the creatures that were fighting before, Eric saw the slime and the fanged lizard sharing the corpse and going into their own ways. 

He had hoped for all of them to fight, then the remaining monster would be too tired or satisfied to care about eating a lonely goblin, but even if that wasn’t the case, it still was the perfect time to get out of here. That’s until he saw the red slime consuming herbs not too far away from him. Eric wasn’t too sure how fast slimes were on land or if his stone would to any damage towards an enemy who’s one hundred percent jello, but he had to deal with it before it noticed him. Eric suddenly remembered the system skill he saw earlier when he analyzed the plants, if this world works as an rpg, it would be possible to develop new skills or level up existing ones through combat, so he could use this chance to try to do so. 

Plant Analysis I didn’t seem like something that could be used for direct combat, so he would try to obtain an ability that made use of his disgusting face; Intimidation. Eric didn’t even know if there was a skill like that, but the ability to make your enemies flee or stand there paralyzed seemed too useful to not to try to get it. Standing up from his position, he glared at the slime, trying to hide any emotions of his face other than killing intent.
