Chapter 2 - Learning about the skills

Louise's screen was like a panel made of water with details of writing in gold, the girl thought it had something to do with her title. Meanwhile, Gilda looks at the girl who calmed down. She was going to see her passive abilities and then see the other items in her backpack. When suddenly she heard a trotting noise, she quickly picked up the backpacks, which were amazingly as heavy as a feather, and pulled out the girl who was shimmering on the screen.

Louise, who was concentrating on the magic screen, suddenly got scared because, at the moment she looked to the left, she saw a frightful being. It was a horse-like being, it had the same size and body, but it had sharp fangs, the hooves were like claws, not very sharp but still lethal, it also had a scar near the front paws. The most bizarre thing about this creature was that it exhaled something like fire, and its messy mane was like thorns. Louise was terrified, holding Gilda's hand and trying not to make any noise.

Gilda, who had noticed the animal first, tried to find somewhere to hide, but the horse seemed to have noticed them, and the horse suddenly started neighing and preparing to move forward, as it was a plain and there was nowhere to hide. In desperation, Gilda, who was holding Louise's hand with her eyes full of tears, decided to run as fast as she could, holding the child in her arms.

The moment the horse approached, after a long time of running, something happened as it charged, Gilda placed herself in front of the girl, but something happened when it attacked. Louise, seeing this, could no longer hold back her tears, but when she was going to be bitten or kicked to death, a screen appeared in front of her, saying: [In the first 3 days, a barrier will protect those summoned by the mage, it just cannot protect internal cases, and if the person is off guard.]

The same screen appeared for Louise, who read with eyes filled with tears. After a few failed attacks, the horse left, it was like a predator that gave up on prey. Incredibly, the barrier protected them even from the animal's breath.

The girl was squeezing Gilda's hand, who was looking around; she noticed that she was no longer on the plain with little vegetation; she had been running for a long time, and the horse didn't seem to take the chase seriously; the new location was a kind of forest with several trees, a type of pine; the only difference this time is the colors; the leaves are white, the trunk is black, and the pinnae are golden; all those pines were beautiful.

Louise started to wipe away the tears when she saw the trees, which were similar to those on Earth, only with a different color. Then she turned to Gilda, who was seeing if there were any animals around, and after nodding that it was safe, she put the backpacks on the ground, and said. Then she turned to Gilda, who was seeing if there were any animals around, they found a clean area with a lake after a while of walking, and after waving that it was safe.

Gilda put the backpacks on the ground and said: "Apparently this mage must have a lot of tricks, let's keep seeing the items maybe have one for self-defense." Gilda looked at the girl, who had a little snot on her nose, and eyes red from crying, and continued, "So I start again." Gilda stopped using the term aunt because she didn't think it was necessary.

Before opening the first smaller pocket of the backpack, which contained the sphere that gave her the status screen, Gilda notices that it is full of things, like food or water; maybe it's a backpack with some space magic effect, she thought. The first thing she grabbed was water, but she didn't drink much and shared it with Louise.

Gilda examined what was written on the paper and realized that the thing that created her system, which didn't resemble a stone, could be the key to active skills. Louise noticed the woman's happiness and inquired.

"What is that in your hand?"

Responding to the girl's question, Gilda said.

"From what I read, this small stone, when eaten, can activate active skills, I will eat it to do the test." Before Louise could respond, the stone was placed in her mouth, and Gilda noticed that it tasted like strawberry-flavored candy when placed in the mouth.After ingesting the stone, she nodded to Louise, and because the screen appeared in front of her again, this time with only the information of the skills, Louise understood and picked up her small bag with the small stone.

Skills:

Active: [Golden Lotus], [Teleport] and [Weapon Summoning: Gloves]

Passive: [Calm mind], [Crazy cook], [Lone Wolf] and [Strength for protection]

After looking at the new skills, Gilda was even more impressed that she had acquired a new passive skill, so she decided to see the skill information, but first decided to look around to see if there was any danger.

She looked to the side and noticed Louise had already eaten her candy stone, everything appears to have gone well, but when she saw the girl's eyes turned a beautiful turquoise blue, and she had a symbol that looked like a dark blue star on her forehead, Gilda decided to ask.

"Um, Louise? Are you feeling all right?" After a while, she couldn't take it anymore, "Your eyes have changed color, and there's a strange symbol of a star on your forehead."

Louise looked at the woman and said.

"I think it's because of the skills I gained, one has to do with stars and the other with water, but you also have a lotus mark on your hand and your eyes have turned golden."

Gilda noticed a lotus, white on the back of her hand after Louise spoke, but she can't see her changed eyes because she doesn't have a mirror.

After some processing, she resolved the details of the skills, starting with the active ones and then the passive ones.

[Golden Lotus (Level 1):

When activated, the symbol of a golden lotus appears, the owner's aura will increase, and the light attribute will also be added to attacks, adapting to the user. The amount of mana used is determined by the user's will, there is no danger when mana is low because the skill will reduce or disable the capacity.]

Gilda thought that was why the lotus in her hand was white, then tried for the first time to activate an active skill, and as a result, the mark on her hand has not changed color. But Louise reported that when the skill was active, she had a golden lotus symbol on her forehead, she didn't leave the skill activated for a long time to not waste mana for nothing, she would try to see more detailed information about the mana later.

[Teleport:

Can teleport the skill owner or other people, the teleport location must already be known to the person, and the ability depends on the user's mana level and distance.]

It's a useful skill, but it takes a lot of mana if you want to go to a very distant location.

[Weapon Summoning: Gloves

Low mana cost summons battle gloves]

[Gloves (Level 1):

Resistant gloves that strengthen attack and aura by 10%

It has a slight healing ability that drains the owner's mana if the owner so wishes. Can regenerate and does not cost mana, but when regenerating, you cannot use other abilities of the item.

Other item skills can be added with skill evolution]

Gilda looked at the skill and realized she'd have to adapt to close-range attacks; she knew a little self-defense and had done some martial arts for a while.After remembering the past, Gilda decided to start seeing passive skills.

[Calm mind

Helper Skill in Tricky Situations]

[Crazy cook:

Auxiliary skill for cooking]

The first two passive skills are simple, even without a lot of information, they were understandable.

[Lone Wolf (temporary):

Can find happiness alone.]

Another simple one, but what Gilda didn't understand was the temporary beside the skill. She decided to see her last skill.

[Strength for protection:

Increases the user's aura by 5%, assists in controlling the user's aura so that it only affects the enemy, and increases the five main senses by 30%.

[Strength for protection also adds two marks, one on each hand.]

After carefully observing her skills, she decided to examine the details of her mana, which was the answer to the marks on her hand.

[Mana (level 1)

Stable

93%

Evolution items or cultivation are required for mana growth.

[Mana replenishes, with the speed changing according to the user and the level of the being's spiritual domain.]

Gilda was curious, so she decided to see if there was a description of cultivation and if it was as she imagined. It had a description that said: to Cultivate you need to understand yourself and raise your spiritual realm.
