I'm alive!. Ok ok, let me explain. For those who don't know I haven't done any new chapters for a week or two, it was because my best friend's birthday and (as you can guess) I paint warhammer minis and I wanted to paint a dragon for him, and I chose a big one "to big" and a difficult one to paint because I couldn't get the chemicals off that get them out of the mold even after a wash and primer so the color falls off all the time. So I had to choose what was important, and of course it is the power of friendship. Yeah, that's why, so now I'm going to try to get back on track with this.
Please remember that my first language is not English. And I don't own Warhammer 40k.
Five hours of walking through an alien forest on another planet. You might be wondering what can happen during that time, well.
First it was quicksand which a surprising number of us didn't know what it was, and I had to throw out several ropes to them and then have The Ogryn pull them up.
Then after that I had to stop two Ogryns from eating berries that could be poisonous, but the berries weren't berries, but flesh eating insects, if The Ogryn didn't have such a thick skin, it
Could bin be as bad as in that old mummy movie.
After that two of the group started fighting and almost shot each other to death, luckily they missed each other even though they were two meters apart. Not so lucky was that their shots woke up some birds that live here, and like the insects it tried to eat us. After that we did what the Orks do and shoot until we couldn't shoot anymore. No one died but some were injured from stray shots and from the birds, but I got some xp.
11 xp to be exact. Now I could level up.
[Note. You have level up to Lv 6. You have 1 point]
[Note. You have 3/300 xp]
[Note. You can put a Lv in Janitor class, do you want to put it 1 Lv in Janitor class?]
What no! Haven't we been through this already. Why would I put a Lv in the Janitor class?
[Note. Puting a Lv in Janitor class]
[Note. You have acquired the Skill [Cleaning Technique]]
Huh!? Why?
[Response. You said the words "put a Lv in Janitor class?"]
The FUCK! You can't be that stupid. I guess a fucking system with a Janitor class is bugs as fuck. I mean you have no shop or Skill-tree, plus the system guide is a bitch who makes things difficult for you instead of helping you. I mean what's the point of-
[New Quest]
[A Fight For Survival]
Survive the monster attack.
Wait what!?
"Hi David, how are you, you look good. First you went red and now you went white in the face," Ron asked.
"Huh, um, you see,".
"Have you been poisoned? Do you feel unwell?".
I tried to come up with an explanation, but before I could say it, there was a thud. Not a thud from our Ironstriders, no it was further away.
The thud was getting closer and closer, I tried to see where it was coming from but couldn't see anything. Ron, who had seen something was wrong on my face, looked around.
"Wait, what is that? Everyone, stop now!". All but the Ironstriders stopped, and only the sound of the Ironstriders walking around and the thud coming closer and closer.
"Hey, does anyone else hear that?" one of the men asked before a crash was heard, and a tree fell down. Everyone around the tree ran and jumped away, but I, who was further away, just looked at what had brought it down.
Farther away at the base of the tree now lying on the ground, is a frog? No, it's more like a monster, it's bigger than a truck and apparently could knock down a tree wider than me.
It had four relatively small eyes, dark green skin and legs thick like a gorilla. It opened its mouth and a tongue blasted out and hit one of the Ironstriders. The Ironstrider first leaned back thanks to the impact before swinging back as the frog began to pull it back.
"Oh shit". If I want mine reward I had to stop it. I won't give up two Skill so easily. With that I started shooting at the frog, more specifically its tongue.
-3
I fired with both of my guns and apparently it's hard to hit a tongue, even though the tongue can pull an Ironstrider towards it.
The frog released the Ironstrider after mine one and only hit, and after that everyone else started shooting at it. To avoid more damage, the frog jumped forward, it was not elegant. I had seen videos on YouTube about frogs that couldn't jump properly and landed on their back and spinned in the air, it was like that.
The monster frog spinned stiff in the air as if all muscles stiffened as it jumped further away. As elegant as a stone it fell on one of the men that didn't get away in time and smashed him and smashed my chance to get two Skill from my quest.
Wait! What was the reward for the quest for surviving the monster frog? I don't remember there being any.
[...]
System, you set a reward right? I waited for a response from the System while I shot the last shot and I had to change to the next bacteria.
Lasers from las guns fly through the air, everyone has received a panic attack and there is no telling where everyone is, and how they will shoot. Damn, I can see friendly fire making my job harder, it reminds me of when in enemy monster breaks through the troops on Total War Warhammer 3. Say What you want about Warhammer fantasy, but Tolal War is a good game. Warhammer fantasy in general, not so much.
[Answer. reward is 1 anime Skill from an anime you know]
After the first second I heard it I stopped and thought about what it could mean, the second second I started shooting towards where I thought the giant frog was, the third second I realized that under the first second the giant frog had jumped towards me and spinned horizontal towards me in the air, the fourth second I dodge roll out of the way just before it fell on me.
Earth crashed down on me from the giant frog as it crashed onto the ground right where I was. I crawled on the ground against two large tree right next to each other, I braced myself against the tree with one hand as I stood up and used my other hand to fire at the frog, and the numbers showing the damage appeared in my field of vision.

When I caught sight of it again, it was emerging from a dust cloud from a shell that had exploded without me noticing. The giant frog was chewing on someone I couldn't make out from the kicking legs that were the only thing visible. The giant frog gobbled up the rest of the person with a gulp and looked in my direction, but I just kept shooting.

I leaned my back against the tree while firing both guns, but mostly missed the shots, but I did manage to hit one of the giant frog's eyes.
With surprising speed, the giant frog's tongue flew out at me. I could hardly see it even if I have thought acceleration. I looked to my right and realized that the tongue had hit someone who had been leaning on the tree, right next to me like me, the tongue had covered his entire face making it impossible for him to breathe. He only had time to drop his weapon and start bringing his hands to his face to tear the tongue off before the frog pulled it back.
Contrary to my expectations, the man did not follow, but his face did. Left on the tree, within arm's length was he, only a bloody skull left, no eyes or nose, it was just a skull with blood on it. And almost just to burn in this terrifying moment, the man's hands that were about to tear off the tongue reached out to where the face was and felt what was left and showed that he was still alive, but after that the man felt what was left, as if he had realized something, he stopped, and then dropped his arm to the ground like a doll that had its strings cut , as if he had realized that he would be dead, and died immediately afterwards.
Of all things I've seen so far, this was the worst. When Zask had part of his head shot off in front of me, it was quick and painless, but this was obviously not, he had several seconds on him to realize that he was dead, and I could see much more clearly what was left in front of me. Fuck this!
I looked in the direction I thought the giant frog was and reached out to shoot it. I just watched as it dodged an attack from one of the Ironstriders by jumping into the air, it flew through the air and smashed into a tree. The tree then began to lean out the other way and fall to the ground, not so far away from Ron. Fuck, this frog is almost made to make me fail. Wait! System?
[Answer. No, it was just a creature in heat nearby]
If so, fuck this planet. I started shooting at it again along with everyone else here, during this fight the others in the group had shot, thrown, run from or died from the frog. the only thing that didn't was Ron who was shouting orders and trying to get control of the situation and the tech priest who was on the Ironstrider and was shooting at the giant frog.
Wait, the Ironstrider! I ran up to the nearest Ironstrider who Bartellophis_Garc was on, shooting at the frog while shouting nonsensical Omnissiah propaganda.
"Hey Bartellophis, I have a plan! Can you hear me?".
Bartellophis, under the commotion of all the gunfire looked at me and said "Of course I can hear you, I'm not bad at hearing, or I'm getting confused by this. Of course, I have hearing that can filter out the unnecessary noise".
"Yes yes listen now, I will make it come towards me, and when you know where it will be, you will shoot with the strongest thing you have, you can hit it right?".
"Of course I can hit it, its unnatural movement that can only come from the obvious inferior biological parts. If you can get it to be clear about where it's going, I can give you more than what you need".
"Ok, and try not to shoot me ok". With that I ran away from Bartellophis so there were no trees between me and the giant frog.
I aimed one of my pistols with both hands and aimed, the giant frog had come at me when I had hit its eye, so if I hit one of its other eyes it will attack me again, but if it tries to eat me with its tongue … I have no plans for it, this might have been a stupid idea.
I concentrated on my goal, time slowed down due to thought acceleration and my [Marksman Lv3] helped me aim with its 10% accuracy bonus. I saw how it gobbled someone else down.
[Note. You can use [Bull Headed Lv2]]
Oops, almost forgot that one.
[Note. Agility 7 + 6 = 13]
(Boom)

I managed to hit it in the eye, and that made the giant frog spit out what it was chewing on.
[Note. [Marksman Lv3] has become [Marksman Lv4]]
[Note. [Thought Acceleration lv1] has become [Thought Acceleration lv2]]
Nice, double level up. I couldn't celebrate my Skill's new level because the giant frog has already jumped at me and is flying through the air like a fat ballet dancer. Before I could do anything, all four Ironstrider shot the giant frog in the air, also a green beam that I haven't seen before. And with that the giant frog exploded, all over everything especially me.

I looked annoyed at the window in front of me while covered in frog slime. "Fuck, I hate this life".

"Fuck stomach acid, I'm covered in fucking stomach acid!".

After just over an hour of rounding up everyone and counting the dead, and of course getting stomach acid off from me. I took new clothes that I had packed in my Inventory (which is still Lv1 by the way) when no one was looking. Doc had smeared me with something that smelled bad but did wonders for my burns.
Bartellophis had sent a signal to the other Ironstrider so they could all fire at the same time, which was what Bartellophis meant by "more than what you need", But now there is something much more important I need to do.
[Accept reward]
[Yes/No]
An anime Skill, depending on what it can be, I can become incredibly strong. I mean if I get anything from the big three it will probably need something like a demon prince or a primarchs to stop me, but there's only one way to know. Yes

Well, this is taking longer than I thought.
[Note. You have acquired Skill [Water Breathing Lv1]]
… What the fuck!. What is this? I almost died because of this and you give me the ability to breathe underwater, what anime is this from anyway? Because I can't think of any anime where someone can breathe underwater. I know there is but I don't know which one.
[Answer. It's from demo-
I know I've said it before but, can't you do better? It's obvious you won't give me any OP, but could give me something usable instead.

[Okay. Transform Skill [Water Breathing Lv1] ongoing]
Wait, you can do that?.

[Skill Evolution opportunity found]
[Evolving [Water Breathing Lv1] to [Cleaning Breathing Lv1]]
Uh, what? Cleaning Breathing? Like breathing clean, do I have an air filter now? Will I ever need a gas mask now? Hey, can you explain to me what this is? With that a new window opens in front of me with the info about it.
[Cleaning Breathing Lv1] Rare
A variation of the Water Breathing style from the Demon Slayer Corps. Cleaning Breathing focuses on a clean strike to both kill demons and clean, Cleaning Breathing is a special sword style because it can also be used with cleaning tools to clean, it's actually better for cleaning than killing.

Second Form: [Lock]
Third Form:[Lock]
Fourth Form:[Lock]
Fifth Form:[Lock]

The fuck, what is this? A breathing style? Like Demon Slyer? One of my favorite anime, but that means the Water Breathing Skill was…Fuck!
I fall to my knees as I realize what I had done. System, can I get it back?
[Answer. No, Skills cannot un-evol without special Skills]
But that means that, I just gave away my only chance to use my favorite Breathing Style for a joke.

Poor David, will he never learn not to mess with the System.
I have a math test tomorrow so I'll do this quickly.
I have seen some reviews about the Janitor class and decided to use it, and then the demon slayer idea came about because I watched it sometime between the last and this chapter.
If you have an idea about Cleaning Breathing Form's, let me know, I'll use probably every idea you say.
