Book 1: Chapter 6: Skills

Scarlet Asger

So one of my parents is one of the strongest races of demons? A noble demon bordering on royalty?

What the hell was a Class V demon doing getting involved with a human anyways?

Judging by the fact that there are spawn in this Fracture, it is most likely a Class I Fracture. The weakest type of Fracture there is. And likely the only reason Im alive right now.

As for my magic well, considering that Im half blood lycan, that makes sense.

Lets get this over with before anything else gets here, the tanuki begins, drawing my attention back to it, your listed magic is what determines the direction that your skills will go in terms of the power theyre based off of. It does not mean that its actual magic. Although in your case, it might just be that later on.

Yeah, I already knew that part.

Stats do not change your body at all. All they do is alter the way your body interacts with reality around you, making you stronger in the sense that your presence in reality is stronger and you therefore are physically, magically, and mentally more powerful than you were with lower stats, which is something a lot of humans dont seem to understand, he continues, making my eyebrow raise slightly at the indignant manner of which he spoke that last part. The stats you get per level are decided by your species and your magic combined with what Class as you humans call it, that youre in. Levels 1 through 100 being Class I, 101-250 being Class II, 251-500 being Class III, 501-1000 being Class IV, and anything beyond that Class V.

Wow. Hes really just going straight through it without wasting any time.

What each stat does should be self-explanatory, and Ill correct you in the case that youre wrong. All Ill say on that front now is that a 10 in each of the three main stats is the average for most unawakened humans, he says, ignoring my thoughts. Next up, we have Skill Points and Skill Levels. There are two types of skills. Inherent, which are what you get from leveling up, and purchased skills. You have to level up inherent skills through using the skills, whereas you have to level up purchased skills and purchase them in the first place using skill points. Now think, Skill Store.

I blink in surprise, trying to register everything that he just said. Because while hes right that the stats are rather self-explanatory. Mostly. I havent heard much talk about the specifics of skills.

Deciding to just go ahead and do as he says, I think Skill Store.

Skill Name:Achievement Requirements:Descriptions:Classifications:SP Price: Predator IUnlocked through killing a demon at a higher level than you by at least three levels.

The lowest rarity predator skill.

It grants the user a 3% boost in stats when fighting a creature at a higher level than themselves.

10 CleanUnlocked through killing your first demon.A basic utility skill used to clean the user and their equipment.

Static

10 RepairUnlocked through killing your first demon.A basic utility skill used to repair non-magical clothing. 10 RechargeUnlocked through killing your first demon.A basic utility skill used to recharge magical equipment through the users own mana. 10 ...

That explains why theyre almost all utility skills, except for Predator I. Also, considering that theres an old world country number I think it was called a roman numeral after the name, theres probably a higher rarity for the skill. Which makes me wonder what would happen if I bought that too? Would they stack? Or would one replace the other?

Im distracted again by the spider thats slowly approaching our room. At this rate itll likely get here in about five or so minutes.

Stupid spawn and their sense of smell.

How does a spider even smell in the first place?!

That should be everything. So you can go ahead and deal with that pest, Tar says, making me do a double take at him for calling the demon a pest.

Wasnt he supposed to be a neutral party to our little war?

While I am considered a neutral party, after we sign a contract, most Fae end up rooting for the side that they signed the contract for. Besides. Even other demons consider spawn pests.

Oh. That makes sense.

Also, isnt that a little brutal? For demons to consider one of their own a pest?

Actually, dont answer that.

Wait, what about the mana stat? How is that calculated?

The tanuki gives me a less than useful answer, Math.

I stare at him until he explains further.

You can figure out the exact formula when you leave this Fracture, just know that it is a combination of your Mental and Magical stat, he finally answers after a few seconds of staring.

Thats better at least.

I slowly get up from the ground again whilst cradling my arm, still feeling the blood lightly trailing down it from the wound. At some point the blood claws on my hands just kind of flickered out while I wasnt paying attention, so I reactivate the skill by thinking its name in my head again.

Blood Claws.

Then I begin to slowly walk towards the door.

Maybe I can find a storage room somewhere on the floor thatll have bandages after this fight. Or better yet, a bunker that hasnt already been locked. But the chances of the latter are rather low, considering how its already been at least half an hour, maybe even an hour who knows how long I was unconscious for since the Demonic Assault began.

Heres to hope, I guess.
