All Novel Full 284 An Analysis Of The Skills
—–
I acquired Spearmanship not too long ago, but I often consistently get between 70 to 150 Skill EXP a day, with 300 or more in the day I practice Arts and Techniques. I prioritize the usage of my MP and Ki into cultivating my body to gain more stats, so the leveling of skills is slower, but I prefer to increase the strength of my foundation, the body, than leveling up skills. Nonetheless, Spearmanship had gained a lot of Skill Proficiency in the battlefield against the demons.
Thanks to the ability of draining their blood and converting it into Ki, I was able to keep up in the battlefield for way longer than usually, something that can only happen in such scenarios, so thanks to that Skill EXP that Spearmanship accumulated in the demon battle, it recently got to Level 2. At Level 2 the Skill makes my usage of spears even more precise and daily, the tip of the spear is often enveloped by an invisible aura that increases its sharpness too.
And lastly, as for First Aid, it is the easiest as well, I merely need to conjure low tier 1 Healing Spells in anybody that is slightly wounded. Using it on myself doesn’t work though, it has to be used in someone wounded. But I’ve been using my father as my dummy for First Aid, as he’s always in pain and I often bathe him daily in healing spells so he can feel better. The fight against the demons made him surpass his limits, which left his body too scarred and exhausted.
Healing exhaustion also grants Skill EXP for First Aid, depending in the level of exhaustion. My grandmother and Erika’s father receive weekly massages in the shoulders by me, which often make them feel more youthful and energetic. If I do this daily, they feel even better, but I lack the time to dedicate an hour a day for them, so I often leave this to twice or thrice a week. Usually, I gain roughly 500 Skill EXP each week for First Aid, and because I go around the town healing people sometimes to gain money or food, it recently reached 30000 Skill Exp and got to Level 3, after over a year since I acquired it, this skill has been one of those that had level up the fastest.
…And then there are the other Skills, Butcher, Alchemy, Command, Cooking, and Agriculture. All these Skills work by doing certain non-fighting actions. Butcher gains roughly 10 to 20 Skill EXP each time I completely butcher a creature, their size also matters, so Horned Rabbits give 10 while wolves might give over 20. This Skill has recently reached Level 3 and it helps at detecting the best parts where I can butcher a corpse, and also even in battle, as it sometimes gives me insights about monsters weak points.
Alchemy has been practiced eagerly since its acquisition, mostly by making potions and pills of the simplest and lowest of grades I can. The Skill itself enhances their qualities and effects, so even the lowest grade becomes “mid-grade” in this world’s standards sometimes. I’ve mostly made Demon Potions to restore demon energy, but also I’ve been making Strengthening Potions and Pills that gran temporary boosts to Strength and Vitality.
Each potion is often 20 Skill EXP, sometimes 30 Skill EXP if they’re higher grade sometimes. Pills can be produced in larger quantities, so they’re often 3 to 5 Skill EXP. I usually can only make a few weekly, so I often gain 200 to 250 Skill EXP each week, since I acquired this Skill that I’ve been trying to level it up, but just recently it got to Level 2, after roughly three years since its acquisition! I need better equipment and more ingredients if I want to gain more Skill EXP, but for now, I guess this is good enough.
Command is easy to understand and also to use, but it has some conditions, such as I can only use it when I am at least commanding a minimum of 3+ allies. So I often use it with my friends when we all gather to spar. Usually each use of Command gives 1 Skill EXP with each commanded ally. The command effect lasts until a battle end, such as a sparring match, and when I gather with friends, we do roughly twenty sparring matches, this happens thrice a week usually, and they’re six, so I can earn roughly 1440 Skill EXP each month, not enough to level it fast, but it’s alright. It should soon reach Level 2. It is a new Skill so I can’t complain here.
Lastly, Cooking and Agriculture. These are easy to understand and do, and I usually partake in their Skill EXP grind each day several times. For cooking, I’ve been waking up early each day to help my mother and grandmother make food, usually each day I earn 20 Skill EXP through all the food we make, that’s around 140 Skill EXP a week, and in four weeks, which is a month usually, it is 560 Skill EXP. This is a new Skill so its still Level 1, but it might reach Level 2 in a month or two, whenever I begin cooking more.
Agriculture is the same, enhancing the soil and plants and harvesting them grants Skill EXP, each day I roughly get 20 to 30 Skill EXP when I tend the crops with father and mother, or plant new seeds. So after two weeks, I got 300 Skill EXP out of 10000… Yes, it will take a while, but this is how it is. It’s also a new Skill, so I can’t complain.
And well, lastly, Magic Skills. They’re the newest of the bunch, it includes Blood Edge and the three Summoning Skills, Create/Delete Familiar, Summon/Unsummon Familiar, and Familiar Storage Expansion. They’re all tricky to level up and gain Skill EXP, so they’re still at Level 1, well, because they’re fairly new as well, so I can’t complain… However, I’ve roughly figured how they work.
