When I first gained my powers, I regret most of my actions. I wasted time sleeping and eating, resting instead of meditating, and going to school, thinking of it as something bad instead of a way to grind skill levels and stats. I am only now realizing how much time I wasted on secondary things. I won't repeat the same mistakes.
After saying hi to all the students that came back from school, I headed back to the Danger Room while they ate, going through another Goblin dungeon, my focus being creating new spells and levelling the ones I already had, so no arsoning this time.
When three goblins attacked me, I willed my mana to form a third bullet. Even though I received a migraine as a response, the third bullet still formed, and the spell levelled.
When I was about to be attacked from behind, I controlled my Nature Mana to lock the Goblin in its place. Spiny vines came out of the ground and circled all around the Goblin's small body, not killing him but making him unable to move and constantly hurting him. I named the spell Thron Vines, and it had a max level of 5. Obsidian finished the Goblin with a bite in the neck. Surprise, though, whatever he kills still gives me XP. Hell yeah.
Just when I was about to get stabbed by a Goblin, my skin got covered by thick layers of wood, blocking the stab from doing any serious damage, a new spell I named Wood Skin and was already max level, healing the damage also gave me a level in Nature's Mend, and killing the Goblin with a mana covered knife stab levelled Arcane Weapon.
The spell I am most proud of, though, was the one that netted me the kill against the boss, I thought since I was able to summon thorn vines, why not just summon thorns from underneath the boss's feet?
I never thought a Goblin Shaman's Kebab would have looked that good in a whole life, the new Spell Thorn Spikes also helped improve its beauty.
Before going out of the dungeon, though I took a look at my clothes, and considering how many clothes I had lost, and the few that remained, I tried creating a more mundane spell that would help with cases , making the Mana as thin as I possibly and shaping it like a needle I continued by creating what looked like wool made with mana, and proceeded to woven back together all the clothes that gotten destroyed during this dungeon run, when I was happy with the result, and the clothes looked brand new, I made Obsidian come back inside my mana pool and went outside the dungeon. ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ 𝕟𝕠𝕧𝕖𝕝⚑𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖⚑𝕟𝕖𝕥
New Spell: Repair(Clothes) Lv.MAX
Repair(Clothes) Lv.MAX
Effect: By shaping mana into filaments, you can fuse back together broken clothes, be warned, though, there is a limit to how this spell can repair.

While going outside, I also looked at my status. I had gained three levels and 1451 $: three levels in stealth, one in Dodging, two in Footwork, three in Assassination, five in Spellcrafting, four in Accuracy, one in Focus, two in PDR, one in BDR, two points in dex, and one in Per, Int, and Wis.
My smile was held back from my control over my emotions, I had grown, but I was still far behind others.
When I went to Henry's lab, I asked if I could help him in any way. I wanted to learn from one of the brightest minds in the world.
The ass licking worked and even though I was only given basic jobs and tasks, listening to him seemed to be enough to be considered a lecture in Chemistry, Biology and Physics, looking at his movements while repairing people's equipment also gave me a new skill thanks to CopyCat.
New Skills: Chemistry Lv.6 (Int) (Improves your ability to remember chemsìistry related knowledge and the chance of succeeding in an experiment without incidents), Engineering Lv.2 (Int) (Improves your ability to remember engineering-related knowledge and improves, being considered an advanced skill, it improves all abilities that used when creating/designing an engineering projects)
Did I understand all of the things he said? No, did it matter to my powers? Also no.
" Why don't you go watch a movie with the others? Today was a heavy day for you." He asked me, his voice sounding worried.
" If they are watching Gone with Wind again I'm poking my eyes out," I said jokingly, for some reason Henry's worry didn't go away from his face even after my words.
I didn't go watch the movie, instead I went to the library, something I had stupidly not done until now, why is it stupid? BECAUSE THERE ARE FUCKING SKILLS BOOKS LAYING EVERYHWHERE.
You have come in contact with a skill boo.k
By touching the book, you can gain the skill explained in the book, be warned that some books will have requirements.
By reading the book from where you gained the skill, based on the book, you will level the skill without using it.
Unfortunately, most of the books saved inside the library were on school subjects or talking about mutants and the law attached to them, so I couldn't get a lot of skills by using them, and thanks to sixth sense I also felt the cameras in the room looking all around the library, just taking and then putting back a book would have attracted suspicions so I took all the books that had skills I could learn, and placed them on a table, touched them all for a second to learn the skill, and proceeded to open one of them.
New Skills: Painting Lv.1 (Dex) (Improves your control over your hands, and your ability to express your imagination while painting), Drawing Lv.1 (Dex) (Improves your control over your hands, and your ability to express your imagination while drawing), Law Lv.1 (Int) (Improves your ability to remember Law related knowledge, and lowers the chances of making mistakes while thinking about it), Etiquette Lv.1 (Cha) (Improves your movements so that they are always correct based on the scenario you are dining yourself in, doesn't have any effect during fights), Speed Reading Lv.1 (Per) (Increase the amount of information you can absorb through books)
Speed Reading Lv.1=>9
I continued reading, even turning off the notification to not get distracted, my body is a machine of pure focus and willpower, my mind is a sponge absorbing information like water, my eyes are guards catching words like criminals, my body stayed still for several hours, I continued reading, improving, feeling my mind expand, my focus improve, my knowledge widen, I felt it, I felt what I was missing and I had to do to grasp it, I knew what I had to do to become stronger, I just have t.o-
I was taken away from my absolute focus by something slapping me, my eyes burned, my mind implored for rest, a single drop of blood came out from my nose, staining the table where all the books, now opened and fully read, were laid on.
Looking around, I saw the worried faces of several people I recognized, though due to my fuzzy mind, I wasn't sure who they were.
