Brandon Copper was thinking to himself after this revelation from the System. 'You know, I have 106 Sp left, I ought to use them for the rest of my skills, as the Passives would allow me to have Tier 2 strength, without being so. Giving me advantage against Epic Monsters.' I decided to check my Skill Menu.

I wanted to increase my Dex and Str skills, as they would be useful against beasts, and my Wisdom skills, are they were very Useful, so I added points to Acrobatics, Athletics, and Perception for a total of 21. Afterwards I realised I can easily get more by hunting more Beasts, so I spent more points into the rest of the Dex skills for another 16 points.

[User! New Passive(s) Gained! Agile: All DEX based skills gain +5. Brawny: All STR skills gain +5.]
'How come there's only one Strength based skill, System, and why does it have a passive? [Responding to User, as athletics is a generic skill name for any kind of cardio activity, there isn't anything else that STR is used for.] 'So the brackets with plus five is the passives, right?' [Affirmative, it's to denote their nature as addon bonuses. Reminder, as previously told to user, you can increase any stat to 19, and Passives will not strain the user's body.] With that, I decided to add 7 more points to my CHA skills. Then because I did want to go out into the world, I realized Nature and Survival would be good skills to upgrade, and put those both up to ten.

Seeing my SP at 25, I then decided to head out again into the Silent Woods to kill more Beasts.
