Sitting still on the bed in my humanoid form I began to feel excited about the other skills that I have.

  It's normal to feel excited about hearing your skills, especially since those can be deciding factors to how I will move next.

  [Fufufu, there are quite a number of them~ want me to tell you some of them?]

  Yes.

  I nodded as I patiently wait like a student listening properly to a teacher's lecture.

  [Let's see, hmmm~ Okay, let's start with your skill set which is "lessen presence", "Concealment", "Silent movement", "Disguise" and "Observation." ~.]

  Hmmmmm?

  Is it just me or those set of skills sounded like a set for someone being a spy or an assassin would have? It can also go with being a scout or a recon.

  [Correct~]

  But why though?

  Will I be a spy or an assassin in the future?

  [Depends on you of course~ but at least you have some good skills to use~ Those are also helpful in many cases.]

  Right. I do find myself agreeing to that one.

  Just like Aria-sama said, they are skills that are good.... And I think I might eventually use them in the future when the time comes.

  [Let's continue shall we ~]

  Okay....

  I'm beginning to feel that the next skills would be something very cheating again...

  [The next set will be skills that are kind of interesting~ they are doll reted skills so in short, It's like a css unique skill~]

  Doll reted?? So, something reted specifically to me.

  [Yes, those skills are called "Doll maker.", "Doll possession." "Doll designer." and "Puppeteer."]

  I then pondered after hearing those skills....

  The skill "doll maker" and "doll designer" seems to be skills that can able me to create dolls and design them. It's already obvious just from the name itself after all....

  There is also this skill called "puppeteer", If I based it on the name itself, does that mean that I can control dolls or puppets?

  [Correct~ Those puppets can move on their own, but they will still follow your orders as you are their master~]

  Ohhh, Interesting.

  Then, can I control all the dolls that I see? Like for example, I was walking on a town and went into a doll shop, since they are also dolls, can I control them?

  [Quite so~ There is a few conditions though that you need to know if you want to control the dolls, and the condition are quite easy to remember~]

  Conditions? What are those condition then?

  [First, the doll must have your mana~ since it was your mana, the doll will surely consider you as their master~ The dolls that are created by your skill will automatically have your mana inside them, and for the dolls that you didn't create, all you need is to just channel your mana into it.]

  So, it's like them having my blood huh. Maybe something simir to a kin?

  [Let's move on~]

  Wait wait, I still have a question about something.

  [What is it?]

  What about the possession thingy? I tilted my head and asked curiously.

  Since I am basically a soul, aren't I bound in this doll vessel I currently inhabiting?

  [No, you are not bound in that doll, maybe you can consider it as your main vessel. So as for the expnation of the skill, you can possess the dolls that have your mana~]

  Ohhhh. So, by giving them my mana, it's like I am creating paths for my soul.

  This skill sounded impressive... possession huh... That sounds cool.

  Hehe.

  I think I want to use them and learn them after our escape....

  Hmmmm!?

  I then noticed something which made me curious again....

  If I'm not inside my original body, what would happen to my original body? I will leave my original body behind, right?

  [It will just stay like a normal doll or an empty shell~ it won't move unless you tell it to move or do something~ Ohhhhh now that I mentioned about leaving the body, when you leave the doll that you possessed, it will return back to its normal moving doll mode~]

  Ohhh.... So if I leave my original body then it will only stay still like a normal doll unless I myself make the order for it to move.

  On the other hand, if I leave the body that I possessed. Then it will only return back to the way it moves before I possessed it.

  Hmmm.....

  Thinking about how I can easily change my body from one doll to another.

  Doesn't that make me like a being with no original body at all, I mean if I get defeated or to the point that I'm about to get killed, then all I need to do is just possess another body.

  And this process will repeat all over again until I don't have a vessel anymore.

  Killing me will just be difficult.....

  It's like I'm this annoying bug that you cannot kill no matter what since I'm just escaping death by body hopping.

  [Pffft, why did you pick a bug of all things? ~]

  I don't know, I just feel like it.

  [Fufu, anyways, those doll skills are very deeply connected to each other so you might want to get familiar with each of them for you to use them effectively~]

  Got it.... let's move on with the other skills.

  [Let's see, next is "magic storage"~ it's connected to space magic and to how it works, I don't think I need to expin it since you probably read it a lot from your world's book and such~]

  Right.....

  [After that is "Process material" this skill is connected to your "doll maker" skill. I will only tell you the basics but that will be for next time~]

  Okay....

  [Next is....]

  Aria-sama then continued with the other skills while l listened attentively to her to not miss any important information.

  The next skills that I've heard was mostly focused on support passive skills such as "self-auto repair", "strengthen body." and "Pain nullifier". Well basically, it's the skill sets for a doll.

  As for combat skills. Aria-sama said that I only have a decent number of them.... She said that I don't need to worry about it since my way of combat is by using my body.... She also said that the ck of combat skills was for me to be banced and not super overpowered.

  But honestly speaking, my own body was cheating already, not to mention the doll skill sets that is already overpowered from the start....

  Is the definition of Aria-sama's "banced" kind of not fair at all?

  [For me it's banced if you want to survive in this world~ plus....no, never mind...]

  Ehhh? That sentence kind of felt mysterious for some reason.....

  So curious.....

  I want to hear the next....

  [I will tell you when the time comes.... you should focus on your current situation first.... ]

  O-okay?....

  Her tone of voice was a bit dark as if there was a deep reason for it.... I kind of want to ask her but.... Her tone is like telling me to just let it be for now....

  [Anyways, moving on~....]

  After we talked about my skills and their uses, the next topic that we had was the y-out of this pce and Aria-sama expined to me in a way that I can quickly remember.

  I was quite surprised when I heard about the parts of this pce, Aria-sama was very detailed when she was telling me the rooms and the inside of it.

  There was the treasury room, the basement, the quarters and such....

  When I was done with the priority of topics that I've wanted to learn, we shifted our next topic towards the random things that we usually do.

  And before I knew it, hours had already gone by, and the morning sun was about to arrive.

  [fuuu~ I didn't notice the time~]

  Same for me too.... Talking with someone makes me forget about the time around me. and also, it's because I wanted to talk with someone during my idle times...

  [fufufu~ well since its already morning, I think I should need to go now~]

  Right, let's talk again ter.....

  [Sure sure~ do your best today okay~]

  Yes..... And with this, she was now gone leaving me alone with nothing to do.

  Now what....

  I rested my cheeks on my hands with a bored expression on my face....

  Well since I don't have anything to do.... Maybe I should just go look around this room and see what I could find.

  I stood up and walk towards the desk with a few books pced on top of it.

  I picked one book and opened it... And once I opened it, I furrowed my eyebrows and continued.

  Those letters written here are different compared to my world.... But how am I able to read them just fine like a person who already gotten used seeing them?

  Is it a skill perhaps?

  If it is then maybe it was a little surprise from Aria-sama since she didn't mention anything about this.

  But at least that saved the time for me to learn the nguage writings and words of this world.

  I continued with randomly skimming the pages until a topic then suddenly catches my attention making me look closely if I read it correctly.

  The invention of Cannons.

  Cannons!?

  Are you telling me that this world is now using muskets and gunpowder? What happened to my idea of a basic fantasy world type of pce where there are only swords, bow, spears and magic?

  Also, when was this book published? How many years ago? If they had already invented the Cannons during that time, then this mean that the technology now is much more advanced than that.....

  There is a chance that soldier now uses muskets.... Well, if the military technology had improved then I guess this also counts for the economic technology and the basic lifestyle of the people.

  No wait..... Maybe I should go check it first before I assume this.....

  My knowledge of this world is only based on what I've heard from Aria-sama..... And from the stories I've heard from her so far, she didn't say anything about this world being advanced, so maybe there are certain areas only where a specific technology improved.....

  Now that I've remembered something.... I recalled Aria-sama saying that some reincarnated people were sent to this world before...

  So, there is also the possibility that the improvement was caused by an another reincarnator that brought the specific technology to this world.

  I really need to get a better understanding of this world as early as possible...

  "Nnn....."

  Hmmm??....

  Hearing a voice... I quickly looked towards the girl who was lying down on the bed....

  The quilt moved revealing the girl who was about to wake up...

  The girl groggily opened her eyes while blinking.

  [Awake??...]

  "U-unnnn...."

  Diana sleepily got up from the bed while gently rubbing her eyes.

  [Good morning....]

  Once she was now on a sitting position, she stretched her arms and yawned.

  Fufu, oh well.... Let's continue reading this book ter.

  I will just think about the other stuffs ter, for now, I want to entertain Diana.

  I closed the book and pced it on the desk.

  Once I turned around and gnced at Diana, the next thing that I found her doing is moving her head from side to side as if she was looking for something....

  [What are you looking for?]

  "W-where is doll-san?"

  So, she was looking for me huh??

  [Look toward your desk....]

  Diana followed and when she finally saw me, her eyes widened in surprise and her mouth opened still.

  [...]

  "..."

  [Why are you looking at me like that?]

  "Doll-san is that really you!? It's you right!?"

  [Well, It's me alright but calm down first, okay?]

  The girl then fixed her expression after hearing me.

  "I am surprised...."

  [About my form??...]

  "Y-yes...Didn't you say that you cannot change form yet?"

  [Well, that's what I originally thought too, but here we are.]

  I then approached her and sat beside her on the bed.

  And when I sat down, I gnced towards Diana and found her staring at me....

  [Is there something wrong??...]

  "Doll-san really looks pretty every time I look."

  [Ehhh?]

  I slightly raised my eyebrows upon hearing that....

  [That's a compliment, right??....]

  "Nnnn!"

  She cutely nodded her head while looking straight at me.

  [I see...]

  I pced my hand on top of her hair and started caressing it.

  "U-uhmmm?.."

  [Thank you, I guess...]

  A part of me was happy and shy hearing someone calls me pretty but at the same time... I feel kind of fake since it was not me who was pretty but the doll.

  It's a very mixed and confusing feeling for me....

  "Hey Doll-san...."

  [Hmmmm??.]

  "Can I... h-hug you?"

  She was twiddling her fingers while saying that. seeing her act like this was kind of cute.

  [Hmmm..... go ahead then....]

  I don't really mind about being embraced by her, maybe because we already did it before and also, she always hug me in my mini doll form. And I also wished for this body so that I can hug her in the first pce.

  "Yay!"

  She immediately embraced me and shook her head as she went burying her face on my chest.

  I started to feel warm all of a sudden...

  It's not my skin that felt warm, but my feeling.... It was a good feeling, so I don't find it disturbing...

  With this, I pced my hand on her back and patted it...

  "Hehehe~"

  I heard Diana giggled as I patted her back.... Is she enjoying this?

  Well, if she is enjoying this then I guess it's a good thing....

  "This hug makes me feel fluffy."

  [Is that so??.....]

  "Nnnn~ it's different when I'm hugging you in doll form..."

  [Ohhhh.....]

  Since I'm tiny and not doing anything when I'm in my doll form, I guess I do understand that it will be different when I'm in my humanoid form.....

  [Well.... If you want to hug me like this then just feel free to do so...]

  "Nnn~ hehehe ~"

  I smiled and let her hug me for a long while.

  We don't find it awkward but only comfortable....

  [Say?? what do you want to do after this?]

  "Mmmm..... Dunno~ "

  [Pfffft]

  "I just want to hug and stay like this with Doll-san."

  [Okay okay....]

  There's no helping it.... And just like this.... A long moment passed again with me and her embracing each other.
