'So many...' he thought as he went through the list.
"There are more than ten at a glance," he muttered, feeling excited.
He opened the list to check the specifications.

'Where are the skills… only knowledge?' he muttered doubtfully, but went to click on another race.

"No skills again…" He frowned slightly and asked, "Instructor… why are there no skills in race? Before, I used to get a few…"
Nobi glanced at him, then turned to the lion-headed Thomas, wanting him to explain.
"Because Tier 1 and Tier 2 are too weak…" the instructor replied.
"Weak?" Young Slime didn't get it.
Thomas explained properly, "The Voice of the World handed them skills because Tier One and Tier Two are so weak in front of Tier Three that even the mere pressure from the latter could kill the former."
He continued, taking a sip from his beer. "To prevent extinction of races and for the well-being of beings, the Voice of the World was kind and passed down the skills directly—"
"You would get knowledge only from Tier Three." Nobi cut in.
Thomas nodded. "Yes. You would get the knowledge only from Tier Three. You have to create your own skill based on your comprehension and understanding."
Slime#47's eyes twitched.
The instructor took a sip from the bottle, glancing at the disappointed Young Slime.
He said with a grin, "You don't have to worry. Since you have a plus class and race, your skills will evolve directly until you reach the maximum potential of your class—"
Nobi cut in again, "And since it's a plus, you would have an extra chance to gain the knowledge, unlike ordinary."
She turned to Thomas, but he only glared—expecting her to finish.
Slime#47 just glanced at both of them.
Nobi sighed, adding, "If ordinary races had four chances, '+' race would get eight chances to inherit the knowledge."
Those words brought a little relief to Young Slime.
In the next moment, he mused, 'Anyway, I've already acquired many—and I'm not even using a few… Gaining more skills would only disrupt my battle method.'
After gaining many skills, he'd understood one thing: having too many skills is bad.
'Two skills for healing, punching, kicking, boosting, and a few support… that's enough,' thought, recalling all his fights.
He wasn't saying no to many skills, but he didn't want to waste time on them. Only if skills complemented his fighting methods would he add them or grant more power.
Thomas asked, "Young Slime, did you understand?"
Slime#47 nodded.
Tier Three beings were beginning to touch the peak combat power held by most of the races.
Tier Four was the pinnacle for almost all races.
Only high ruling races had Tier Five beings. So, the Voice of the World didn't want to easily hand them power via skills.
After a few moments, Young Slime inquired, "Then Tier Four and Five are also the same… the knowledge?"
The instructor grinned widely as he took a sip.
Nobi answered for him, "No. Tier Four wouldn't even get the knowledge. They have to learn the knowledge themselves and create the suitable skills for themselves."
'So… Tier Five is also the same.' Young Slime nodded bitterly, but he was relieved.
'So, plus races and classes are even more powerful by this logic,' he mused with a grin, as he glanced at the races panel.
Now he understood the uniqueness of the plus, and why Elder Slime was so happy when he'd learned that he gained a + race and skill.
'Old Slime almost roared out to the sky,' he thought, and muttered, "Until plus reaches the maximum potential, it can continue to evolve—meaning it can hit Tier Five as well!"
"Yes… That's why + are only for geniuses," Thomas answered—Crack!—throwing the bottle to the ground.
