As the debris from the destroyed door cleared, a man in a black cloak stepped forward, shielding his body with one arm. A strange, unsettling mask twisted in a permanent laugh concealed his face.
"Skill created: Appraiser," Noysd muttered.
He raised one hand, summoning crackling lightning that danced between his fingers.
{Done,} the system responded.
"Use skill: Appraiser."
A magic circle appeared in front of Noysd's eye, glowing faintly. In the center, a status screen materialized, displaying information about his opponent.
{NAME: Hyrion Jion

INT: 110 (Yes, this means IQ.)

CHA: S (Above Average. Like, charming enough to seduce your grandma.)

"Dang, quite the kit you got there, Hyrion," Noysd said, raising his hand, lightning coiling like a serpent ready to strike.
"Thank you," Hyrion said with a polite bow...before suddenly vanishing from sight. "Now DIE, Haruka Hinata!"
"Wait wha—" Noysd barely got a word out before a demon-powered fist sank deep into his gut.
His lightning fizzled as his breath escaped him. With a loud CRACK, his body slammed into his house wall, creating a crater-sized dent.
"Ugh... Dammit..." Noysd gasped, and promptly vomited enough blood to worry a vampire.
"Skill crea—"
Before he could finish, Hyrion popped up like a demonic ninja and delivered a follow-up punch to Noysd's left ribs. The sound of breaking bones was clear.
"Oh sweet mother of pain," Noysd wheezed, as he was sent hurtling through the opposite wall, crashing into a tree outside like a particularly unlucky piñata.
He hit the ground with a thud, coughed more blood, and chuckled weakly.
"Heh…"
"What are you smiling at?" Hyrion narrowed his eyes.
"Walked right into it like a rat sniffin' cheese."
The ground beneath Hyrion began to glow ominously.
"Wait... No—!"
"Paralyze!" Noysd shouted.
Hyrion froze mid-blink. "Sh—"
Before he could finish his demon curse, a massive pillar of lightning descended from the heavens, enveloping Hyrion and forming a bright sphere of plasma.
(Me: So what is plasma? Let me Google that—oh right, I can't. But here's the short: Plasma is like lightning's hyperactive cousin. It's the fourth state of matter, made of ionized particles. It's also what you call "oh no" when you're standing in it.)
The sheer force of the plasma blast obliterated Hyrion, disintegrating his body, his clothes, and even his smug attitude.
The light faded.
Noysd stood (barely), his body battered, his face pale. "Man... that... was... something…"
He pressed a hand to his stomach.
"Skill... create... Great Heal."
{Done,} the system replied.
"Use skill: Great Heal."
A soothing green light engulfed his body, mending bones and bruises, knitting flesh like magic thread.
(Me: Yeah, he definitely broke a few bones. The man looked like a dropped action figure.)
Once upright, Noysd wiped blood off his lips. "System, any quests?"

"Hmmm... Summon time," Noysd said, limping a little.

"Why do I feel judged by this gacha list... Alright, 10x Normal Roll," he muttered.
{Result: 4x Gold, 3x Purple, 3x Platinum}
"Open 'em all. Ow. Still hurts..." he winced, clutching his stomach again.

"…You know what?" Noysd said, staring at the result.
