Chapter 46: Improving my Perception

After checking my status panel, I went to the washroom to tidy myself up. Though it was not as exaggerated as purifying bodies in the novels, I smelled. It was not best to stay like that for another minute.

After completing the daily necessities, I went to have breakfast. Though all three of us wanted to be at the table at the same time, but as a Viscount my father's schedule wouldn't allow so. So most of the time, it would be just Mother and I.

When I was much younger, there were my siblings but after they went to the academy, it would be just the two of us who spent time together.

We had our breakfast and I was about to leave for the training hall. Even though I am stronger, my skills were still at their weakest. I need to improve them, and only then I would be able to survive longer.

As I was leaving, my mother called, "Your father wanted you to have this. It would be a pretty useful skill", she said.

As she said, it was a skill book that I was much in need of, Perception. After learning and improving this skill, I can learn the skill book I had to keep away for the moment, Improved Perception.

I have no idea why this has to be done in this way but those are the rules of this world. Some may appear weird to me because I have read many web novels, which are different from this but it also makes sense at the same time because of those web novels, where every world has its own set of rules.

"Thank you Mom", I said and gave her a kiss on the cheek.

No item is 100% guaranteed. There would always be flaws in the goods. That's a rule that every world abides by. If it were weapons or armor, you can check them if they were working but talismans are different. They are one-use products, so you know what the talisman could do but not if that particular talisman works or not.

Moreover, there are monsters with various sneak attacks, that would be failed to be registered by the protecting talisman in time. Even if your life would be saved, there is a chance of maiming.

Unlike the ancient times, there were skills and methods to even regrow the organs of a person as long as it didn't cross a certain time limit. Though the way is there, it was very costly and can't be afforded by many.

As a child of Viscount, I can afford such medical bills, but that would cause me to lose much of my pocket money that I get to spend every year. There is no way that the elders would let me enjoy the benefits of the family without contributing a little to the family, especially the ones who stand against my father.

So the best way to deal with this was not to get injured in the first place. This was why it was important to improve your perception as soon as possible.

After learning the skill, I went to the training hall. The best way to improve Perception was to get hit and where can I find such a way to improve my skill without getting into a dangerous situation? It was the training hall.

Improving the level of my perception skill would be the sole focus of my training when I am not busy finding a way to complete the Tier-4 promotion mission. I still need to complete that before I leave home to take the test to enter the academy.

For the next two months, improving Perception and finding a way to correct the ritual, so that I can complete my promotion mission. Nothing else matters until these two are completed.
