Steven had seen the system message and was now in a sitting position on the infirmary bed. He had completed the quest and he was now at level 2, he was also curious to know what skill he had obtained.
[Name: Steven Grayson]
[Level 2]
[Hunter's rank: recruit]
[Exp: 0/200]
[Strength: 12]
[Agility: 10]
[Stamina: 10]
[Ki energy: 0/35]
[Stat points: 5]
Huh, why is my Ki energy zero? It looks like I will have to ask Elijah about these. Before he knew it, the screen automatically switched to the skill tab.
[New skill obtain]
[Ki slash]
Steven seeing this looked at the screen more focused than he was before. he was curious to know what this skill could do and wished the system could talk about it better. But Steven didn't have to say as another screen appeared.
[A skill that has a range of 10 meters. it will fire out a line of Ki energy from the user's hands or the preferred weapon of the user. This skill uses 5 Ki energy per slash]
Steven was eager to try out his new skill, but he realized he had no Ki energy left. He wondered how many slashes he could perform if his Ki energy was at 35. He quickly did the math in his head and came up with seven.
He got up from his bed and felt no pain in his body. He decided to look for Elijah and headed for the door. As he opened it, he saw a man standing outside.
"Ah, you're awake. You've been sleeping for half a day," the man said. He was wearing a white coat and was holding a box in his hand. He must be the physician who treated him. "If you're looking for Elijah, he went to the association head's office a while ago."
Steven thanked the physician and walked past him. He wondered what Elijah was doing in Oscar's office, were they still talking about what I did back then to impress him?
He went to the office, remembering the way, as he had followed Elijah in the morning. He took the stairs to the top floor and looked for the office trying to remember which one it was. He found it at the end of the corridor and knocked on the door.
"Come in," a voice said from inside.
Steven opened the door and saw Elijah and Oscar sitting on a chair. he looked around the room and noticed that the damage made by him earlier had been repaired.
"Ah, Steven, you're here," Elijah said, smiling. "it looks like you are getting better. Come and get something to eat you must be starving".
Steven felt nervous as he walked towards the sofa and sat down next to Elijah. He had bought out food and handed it over to Steven, And Steven wasted no time and he started to eat.
Oscar looked at him and then smiled, " You were amazing earlier today Steven, and I thank Elijah for bringing in such a talented person like you". "you have shown me that you have what it takes to become a hunter but you still require some proper training before you head for the academy with the other recruits".
Oscar then went to his desk and brought back a beautiful sword. It had a silver blade that shone like a mirror and a golden hilt that was decorated with intricate patterns. The sword looked elegant and powerful, and Steven felt drawn to it.
"This is an advanced-tier weapon Steven and I am giving this to you since you broke your sword earlier. I sent for it when you were unconscious" Oscar said as he held the sword in his hands handing it over to Steven who had finished his food quickly and had collected the sword with a little bow.
[Advanced tier weapon detected]
[All stats increase by four when the sword is in use]
Steven was surprised by what he had just seen, the weapon he was holding in his hand just increased his stats. "Wow this is amazing, this sword added to my strength, speed, and stamina," Steven said out loud as he was surprised by what he had just seen.
Hahaha; Oscar laughed you could even feel the energy from the impressive sword.
Steven was swinging the sword about and Oscar brought up another topic.
"So Steven, before you go to the academy, you are going to train under him for a while and I told him to give you basic martial arts and a cultivation book to increase your Ki energy."
" Your training starts tomorrow Steven, so let's head out and meet some other people," Elijah said as he stood up from the chair he was sitting on and was working out of the association head office.
Thank you sir for everything; Steven said
It has been a pleasure; Oscar said with a smile on his face as he looked at Steven who continued to swing his sword while following Elijah at the back.
Elijah and Steven had gotten out of the Ironclaw beast hunter's association building. Now they were heading for another building which was near the association building
"What are we doing here Elijah," Steven asked as he looked at the building they were going to which was small compared to the association building.
"This is where we train recruits just like you before they head for the academy. So it's time to meet with other recruits"
Now Steven was eager to meet other recruits, he new each one of them will have different reason why they wanted to become an hunter.
