"Haah! That was close. If I didn't think that I could just fly and fight him, I would be branded as an idiot who ran away"
Allen muttered to himself while stuffing the Speeder Rhino's body inside his storage ring.
"Now that I think about it, I ignored the system notification after completing that pain in the ass quest,"
Allen called out the status and started examining the changes of the system.

(Notification History)
(Market: Due to low level, this function isn't available.)]
"Ohh! These are quite some changes. Hm... Notification history? What is this?"
Getting curious, Allen clicked on the button and another interface opened. However, the window this time was vertical and long, like a list, unlike a horizontal window.
[Notification (Currently Silent)]
(Latest Notification)
[Ding! You have gained 2 Skill Points by killing Tier 3 Speeder Rhino]
[Ding! You have completed the quest (Steal Her) {+}]
(Old Notification)
[Ding! Because of the Attribute function, the system has upgraded to version 1.2 {+}]
[Ding! First Quest Accquire]
....
"Woah! But, let's active the notification first. Or, I will miss some important notifications."
[Notification (Currently Silent)]
[Notification (Currently Active)]
Allen's eyes shone brightly like a child.
"Hmmm! Let's return for now."
He stretched his arms and flew to the academy. While flying, he checked his storage ring, which he got as a reward for completing the quest.
The ring was silverish and a stone that looked like a diamond but shone more brightly than a diamond was put on it. As Allen put his mana inside the ring, he got a full view of the item that was on the ring.
[Ding! (Inventory) has been added into the system skill]
Suddenly, a notification appeared startling Allen since he hadn't heard the notification sound for quite a time.
As the notification disappeared, a small window appeared.
[Inventory (Linked with Storage Ring)]
(Some Details: This inventory is linked with a storage ring, so the host can see the items inside the storage ring without needing put mana inside it. However, the inventory doesn't have its own space, so you can put items inside the storage ring and take it out, but if the storage ring is full, it can't store more items. {One-time message})
-Mid Tier silver Healing Potion (x10)
-Corpse of Speeder Rhino
(More than 49 Cubic meters of space left)
"Hmm... This is quite interesting."
Before even realizing it, Allen has already reached the academy. But he landed down and directly went toward the library.
He got (Auto Skill Learn), so he wanted to check it out while also enhancing his power.
After entering the library, he started grabbing books. He took quite a lot of books.
"Since I have many offensive skills, this time I should learn supportive, defensive, and speed skills."
Allen decided. He flipped the book [Golden Defensive Shield]
Just as he turned, his eyes glowed blue and the books seemed to be like a single text.
[Golden Defensive Shield]
[Tier: 3 (Mid-Grade)]
[Effect: Cover the body with golden mana (Block every attack up to Low-Grade Tier 3 Attacks), Create a Golden Sheild in front of the caster (Blocks attacks up to Tier 2 Attacks)]
[Do you wish to learn this skill (Yes) / (No) {Ps: Cost 2 skill point}]
"Huh? I didn't sign up for this. Why do I have to pay to learn this skill?!!"
Allen complained in a small voice so as not to get labeled as a crazy person and disturb others.
[Nothing is free in this world. Pay for the service and be a good person.]
Allen narrowed his eyes and glared at the screen but sighed since there is no point in arguing. The system is right, nothing is free in the world.
[Ding! Thanks for paying :D :D :D]
[Learned (Golden Defensive Shield)]
"Haah."
After that, he flipped the pages of other books and gained the minimum concept of these.
[Slippery Feet]
[Blessing]
[Minor Curse]
[Quick Speed]
[Palm Laser]
[Roar]
"Whew!"
Allen put his head on the desk and calmed down. His eyes wandered toward other students who were diligently studying the books.
Allen stood getting bored. He wanted to check the skill, he acquired. But unlike paying for the skill, he didn't get any other notification of him learning the skill, so the skill mustn't be registered into the system.
[Skill(s): (Spark - 1), [Telekinesis - 4 (+)], [Energy Blast- 3 (+)], [PyroBlast - 3 (+)], [WindBlast - 2 (+)], (Efficient Mana Control - 2), (Shadow Art -1), [Killing Ray - 2 (+)], (Golden Defensive Shield)]
'Just as expected.'
He exited the building and flew toward the ground he always practice his skill.
"Now, time to shine!"
Flashing a grin like an idiot, Allen raised his arm and cast "Palm Laser!"
Of course, he cautiously directed the mana inside his mana vein and formed a pattern. The blue mana changed into red and his palm glowed bright red.
Zoom!
A thick line of red light fired at the ground. The sand turned dark and a small hole formed with smoke rising.
The hole width was enough for a person's head to enter, but not wider to stuff the whole body. And it reached nearly 10m.
"Ohh! It's OP!"
Allen exclaimed in joy.
He directed his mana again and cast "Blessing!"
His blue mana glowed into small particles like dust and changed its color into yellow. And the yellowish mana particles got absorbed by Allen's body and glowed bright yellow.
He could feel his strength increasing, he felt he has more energy.
[Ding! Strength increased by 5, Stamina increased by 8 (All effects are temporary)
This skill temporarily increased one stats and consumed some amount of mana per minute. But for Allen, mana wasn't a problem, so he can just leave this skill intact without caring.
But, walking on the street while glowing seems weird, since he couldn't hide the glow, he thought of turning off the skill and only activating it when going to the monster forest.
After that, he cast "Slippery Feet!"
His feet felt lighter like a feather. But when he stepped forward, the ground felt like ice. It was not that type of ice that will break on impact, but more slippery. Just with a step, he was wiggling like the tentacles of an octopus.
Just balancing himself became hard, and as he lost his control, his feet slipped even on the sand and reached toward the tree that was 20m away in 5 seconds.
It would have been good if he could stop reaching the tree, but he had no control over his movement, and he immediately canceled slippery feet, but before the skill could have been completely canceled, he banged himself on the tree.
His face kissed the tree like a lover and his forehead and nose turned red.
"Ow! Ow! Let's not use this skill most often. I will be killed by this skill before the monster will kill me."
Allen let out a small breath and cast another skill "Quick Speed!"
His whole body glowed again but this time it only glowed for a moment and the light disappeared. He got the feeling that his body is lighter than a feather.
Just as he step, his speed was fast enough for the sand to blow up. He walked, but his step was quicker and faster. With each step, small wind creates. And as he ran, he pierced the air. But, his body became hotter.
With the speed faster than a train, the friction from the air caused his body to generate heat. Just running for 2 minutes was enough for his body to sweat like a river. His body felt dry and he felt dehydrated.
"I want water."
He murmured, but he had no water skill. "I should learn water skills, next time."
He sighed and returned to his room where he drank fifty glasses of water in a row.
Riya who was reading a skill book on Allen's bed looked at Allen with shock on her face thinking, 'Did he empty all the liquid inside his body?!'
