"There were many Skill Types, first was Basic attack skills that can be used without cool downs. Active skills that were used mostly to attack damage. Passive growth skills that were passively growing. Buff skills that were giving support and aid in your fight. Debuff skills that were making enemies have negative status on them. Movement skills that were used for evading or getting to enemies. Status skills that can be equipped naturally and can switch in-between the other status skills. And last was the Ultimate skills that can be used as trump cards on tough fights." Troan muttered.
"You can upgrade your skills by using skill crystals,
you need to break the skill crystal and put it on the page. Also, the skills were growing with natural usage and the pages will glow if it upgraded."
He immediately closed the books and pondered. He will have to train each one of them. Making him think about what skills or build he will choose. And all skills have to be trained or used to make them stronger. Thinking about it, the past owners didn't have all the skills but chose their builds and what would be their roles on the team. Making Troan know why they didn't also grab all skills at once.
As he knew that they were expensive and creating one needs hard to find materials. Skill bookbinders were also having been enchanted with unlimited slots of books and Troan managed to get one for himself for free.
Making him thank his sponsors deep within his heart. Their deaths will be avenged and his promise to put down the Dark fellowship will be just the start. There were also lesser evils and greater evils that awaited.
