I deleted my post coz I accidentally used the word "facts". It's not facts but my assumptions.

>The level 0 proficiencies were likely from observing the combat itself.
The exact reason how we learned those skills was never explained. But yes, this is exactly what my assumption is. I feel that it's illogical to be able to learn weapon proficiency skills by absorbing genetic material or manastone (manastone is for boosting body and spell casting). Also, we were left with lvl 0 skills from killing 25 trained rabbold sentries. If it was possible to absorb skills, then those skills would probably be higher level.

>>803597
This is sound reasoning.

So what do you guys think....we supposed to deposits the core into someone and it eats them or maybe it turns them into a slime and their self inhabits the core?

I offer a hand to the big guy, but he brushes me off, getting up on his own before returning to the line. I follow behind him, returning to my place.

"Alright, any other objections? No? Then get ready."

We move up to a wide path that seems to wind around the building, but still within the compound. The others seem to be moving in place for some reason.

Endurance Long - Emils is unable to grow tired. Run as long as you can. Endurance Medium - Keep going until your form can not take it. Endurance Short - Stop after a while. Run - Run as hard as you can. Jog - Run at a normal pace. Walk - Take your time.

Long Run
Repair as needed to keep pieces from falling off.

>>803597
where did you get that 25 guards were absorbed?

Run, medium endurance.

>>803842
Endurance Medium. Or if we're feeling mean we can do Endurance Long and spend some mass to heal our current form to ensure Emils is the last one standing.
I say Jog, because he said "run", not "sprint". If he wants you to run faster he can tell you to.

>>803842
Medium.

>>803842
Long we're here to learn and if we hold back it's gonna have a negative impact on our training.

>>803842
also run because we probably wont be able to keep up otherwise

Run/Long - When the teacher says run, you run.

Start off at a sprint, then do a medium jog.

Medium jog. We're projecting the image of an above-average sports rabbold, while still not unnatural. Let's keep it consistent.

Medium jog. Let them underestimate you at something.

Slow and careful (endurance) jog.

Do you guys know what happens when elephants run? Yeah, ground shakes. That's what would happen if Emils would run.

Medium
Jog

>>803863
This is a valid point. Go for a medium endurance jog.

>>803842
Endurance Medium.
Keep pace with the others, but stay near the front.

Medium jog.

be the last one to fall

Medium Endurance Jogging
We began running, and I started jogging.
Very quickly, the others pass me, running ahead the path. Some keep just ahead of me as I keep a constant pace, while others disappear around corners. None of them are behind me.
Eventually the ones that went ahead begin to lap me, including the large guy from before.
But I keep going at the same pace.

It was in the third lap before I felt the strain on my form as I begin repairing torn muscles and ease the stress on my bones. However it is clear that this form can't go much farther as is, and I slow down and stop in front of Rosh.

"My legs can not take any more of this." I tell him.
He stands there, arms crossed as he looks at me up and down.
Frowning, he says "Kid, You are hardly sweating or even gasping for air. I don't know what you're trying to pull here, but keep going."

Endurance Long - Emils is unable to grow tired. Run as long as you can. Endurance Medium - Keep going until your form breaks down. Endurance Short - Stop after a while. Run - Run as hard as you can. Jog - Run at a normal pace. Walk - Take your time.

>>803886
Oh, right, Rosh expects more from us.

Well, uh, go long I guess. But don't speed up or anything.

>>803886

Is it possible for you to permit your body to cool itself via its own mechanism (ie sweating) and not reabsorb the mass? Similarly limit or shut off anything you're doing to supply it with additional oxygen besides breathing and the body's lungs.

Run on your hands, then.

>>803845
In Thread 1 the only mention of the number 25 is when Cynthia, the guild receptionist, tells Victor that all the guards in Tunnel 25 went missing. Emils' stats only give a vague message of "Defeat >10 enemies in a single battle." There isn't a specified number, but it's at least 11 or higher.

>>803886
Emit Fluid: Water from body to simulate sweating. Just do a tiny amount!

Ok. Run then.
Medium Long.
Only do minor repairs on your form as you do, repair slower than your form in injured.

Rosh will be satisfied when something inevitably breaks.

Make sure to sweat a bit, pant a bit, gasp a bit, and show the physiological signs of the appropriate stress as you go further.

Since this body is a child with no strength reinforces it's no surprise you perform this task worst than trained adults, specially considering how much weigh your tiny legs are caring. Maybe Rosh will understand that.
You can keep going even after something break if that is what he wants, but at some point you should find out if he is going to teach any magic or push you in the hopes you figure on your own.

Hmm. We need a way to prevent this form from falling apart. Once a bone breaks, it isn't repaired instantly. But more importantly, it would be extremely suspicious if a strong child would break its legs with some slow running. Yes, normal people don't break bones from running.

Tell him that you're not tired, but that you're in pain. Ask him if you can get some wraps for your legs. While waiting, see if you can thicken/reinforce the bones in your legs.

Endurance Short - Jog
Basically, go slower when Rosh can't see you, and repair your damage at that time, but go with normal speed when he can see you. Obviously, also breathe harder and harder with every lap, and produce sweat at a constant rate. Is there such a thing as adrenaline in a rabbold body?

>>803890
25 is a nice round number. The tunnel number is a coincidence.

"I said my legs can not take any more of this. My lungs are fine. My muscles are burning."

Go with Jog Long, show Rosh that you may not be the fastest but you can endure more than most people here.

Too weak! Run this form into the ground, it's what he knows you're capable of. Endurance - Long, Jog. Try those things he mentioned - they sound like methods normal bodies use to self-regulate.

They are not going to find us out through this, so give it all you got!

Medium jog, we can't stop now.

>>803886
Only three laps? Your weight must be putting too much strain on your legs. Or maybe your stride is wrong?

Endurance Long it is. Watch how the other runners' bodies react to exertion and mimic that.

do one more lap and then have a leg bone snap in half and face plant.

>>803913
holding back is making us look suspicious...

>>803916
If he asks, which he wont, then Emils can point out that running until you're sore and sweaty means you're a beacon for predators and weak when predators catch up to you. Also, that sweating wastes water, and running consumes calories.

In mimicing the actions of panting and sweating, you may find that it actually eases a small amount of the stress you're putting on this form.

>>803886

Long Endurance Jogging

I continue to jog, using my mass to repair my muscles and joints. Eventually I find a point where my muscles no longer hurt as the muscles and bones around my leg grow thicker.
I look at the others who I pass, copying their haggard breathing and using [Fluid Body] to replicate sweat around their mouths. My fur grows matted as I mimic their exhaustion.

I keep going as the others slow down and I pass them. I soon find myself the only one on the track, stopping back at the end of the track while continuing to breath heavily.

"Congratulations Emils," Rosh grins, "you just completed 19 laps. Everyone else dropped out about half an hour ago. You just beat the record too."

Celebrate by falling over.

>>804135
yep, just fall and lie there for awhile, that is what a regular person would do.

Raise your arms up in a small, celebratory manner.. then fall over.

We went too far. A child shouldn't be able to run further than adults. It's highly unusual. It's a good thing Rosh is dumb. Or is he..

Keep panting for a few more minutes and slowly rejoin others. There's no time for celebrations.

Yes, time for a victory faceplant.

Be sure to join in the next exercise even after the faceplant.

Put up one finger toward Rosh.
Say "Hold that thought" or a similar one liner.
Then
>>804135
>>804137
>>804141
>>804136
Fall over. Face first. Make no attempt to catch yourself. There should be a satisfying *Thud* as you land.

>>804134
>Eventually I find a point where my muscles no longer hurt as the muscles and bones around my legs grow thicker.
Wait, this training actually made you stronger?

>>804134
Give a thumbs up then fall forwards.
When pressed for the first time, ask for another minute.
When next pressed, get up but try to look similarly tired to everyone around you, take care to lessen the effect as a short time passes.

>>804167
it's more of a THLUP, really.

>>804135
Agreed, fall on your face.

Fall over, groaning!

Fall on ass. Face might get damaged.

"I- *gasp*" I try to reply, but between the hard breathing, my mouth organ finds it difficult to talk.
My muscles are overheated and aching now that they have time to rest.
I could force myself to stand, but I let my form rest, falling forwards and hitting the floor as my legs give out below me.

Rosh picks me up by the back of my neck, "You guys cool down, I'll bring her inside."

Emils schedule is now as follows: [Daystar Rises - 0600][Gym - 0700 to 0900][Classes - 1000 to 1400][Guild - 1500 to 1800][Return Home][Daystar Descends - 1800] Pick what awaits Emils.

[Daystar Descends]

everytime I read daystar I think of that one quest where we terrified a drow about the murderous daystar. Also hmmm return home, I believe Victoria will need to speak with her

>>804311
[Guild - 1500 to 1800]

I think it would all be interesting.
Class - Still need to interact with more of our classmates
Guild - Need to return books, read more, attend magic classes
Return Home - Talk with Victoria, or visit shrine.

[Classes - 1000 to 1400]
There are a few classmates to interact with, like the twins and the prideful bird we barely talked with.

let's go to class and see if anyone has hard any rummers about something hunting the graveyard.

One thing we're gunna need is someone to share our secret with so they can cover for us

>>804312
Seconded

>>804365
A second mind could also help in finding ways to meet our needs without disturbing the naturL order of things around here

>>804366
>>804350

Maybe? But can we trust anybody that much is the question.

Being super smart, super strong, super enduring, fast healing, yadda yadda is all fine and dandy. We could make up stories for days.

But when you tell people that you can have anyone's or anythings face, things change. A shape shifter is the perfect scapegoat. Even if we stayed on our best behavior it would only be a matter of time before someones dog dies and we have a full blown witch hunt to deal with.

If we tell someone and they tell anyone, even by accident, we're screwed.

>>804367
But obviously it'll happen eventually. Let's engineer it in our favor. We already have people who are friendly to us.

>>804350
Yes.
We need to get started on grooming our Magical Girl partner.

>>804393
But wouldn't the best way make it swing in our favor be to remain totally hidden long enough to make ourselves a local reputation?

That way when the secret does get out people already inherently trust us.

>>804311
Classes.

Let's read those books we sto- "borrowed" last night.

>>804406
If we're totally hidden then people will assume the shapeshifter ATE Emils and started impersonating her at some point, which would turn all the trust we built up into hatred.

If we have somebody who knew the truth from early on they can verify Emils identity when the truth gets out.

>>804611
That is a very good point.

On the other hand, we already sortof told Bea? She could vouch for Emils if we get exposed and people think she's an impostor, since we can go "I told Bea but she thought I was joking" and she can confirm the story.

>>804611
They would only some that if we were discovered, and only then if we were discovered in a negative light. If emils reveals herself after garnering a reputation no one will think she was eaten. To do so would be unreasonably paranoid under most circumstances.

>>804647
That's predicated on Emils choosing when and where the reveal will happen, which runs contrary to our goal of it not being public knowledge.
That means the reveal would be unintentional, which means that by definition it would happen at an inopportune time.

Your plan is entirely abandoning the idea of keeping it secret indefinitely, while getting Bea onboard is a small concession to secrecy in exchange for a great reduction in the potential harm from exposure. It's hedging bets so we're in a good position either way.

>>804650
My entire plan is to wait until we've developed past the stage of bizarre unknown infant before we start off on grandiose plans.

Telling anyone only serves to increase risk and forward your own end game "Magical Girl" fantasies.

Strot. We need to see if he's going to blow our cover.

Charls and Forest.
Of the class, I think these two are the biggest mystery, so I wanna see what we can learn from them.

Charls and Forest
haven't spoke to them yet

Alice. Her wounded ego will make it easy for her to either love or hate Emils.

Charls and Forest can probably help us the most with our studies, the most glaringly underdeveloped aspect of ourselves.

Strot again. He's Neat.

>>804669
If it was strot yesterday we should consider that he's currently scared of us, which gives us some level of control over him. We can bully him into not revealing our secret and order him to do stuff we ourselves are not capable of.
If that was him.
In theory.

Charls and Forest.

Bea and Hoor
