After finishing his meal, Kaito leaned back in his chair, feeling satisfied and content. The warmth of the food settled in his stomach, and he closed his eyes for a moment, allowing himself to relax. Just as he began to drift off, a familiar chime echoed in his mind.
System Notification:
Congratulations! You have unlocked several new skills upon obtaining the skill Energy Core.
You are now required to purchase a few skills to enhance your abilities.
Kaito's eyes snapped open, curiosity piqued. He quickly accessed the system interface, eager to explore the new skills available to him. The interface displayed a variety of options, each with its own unique benefits.
As he browsed through the skills, the system recommended one in particular: Energy Drain.
Skill: Energy Drain
Level: Common
Cost: 240 MP
Description: Absorb energy from targets to replenish your own MP.
Kaito considered the skill's potential. It would allow him to sustain his magic during battles, making it a valuable asset for an adventurer. Without hesitation, he confirmed the purchase, watching as his MP decreased by 240 points.
With a sense of accomplishment, Kaito continued to search for more skills. As he scrolled through the options, he stumbled upon another intriguing skill: Skill Library.
Skill: Skill Library
Level: Common
Cost: 180 MP
Description: This skill stores abilities obtained by copying others. The host can redeem skills from this library using MP. Skills stored in the Skill Library are acquired by copying the skills of other individuals.
Kaito's excitement grew. The ability to copy and store skills from others could open up a world of possibilities. He envisioned himself learning powerful techniques from fellow adventurers and enemies alike. He quickly decided to purchase the Skill Library, feeling that it would greatly enhance his versatility in future quests.
As he continued to explore, Kaito discovered two more skills that piqued his interest: Dismantle and Upgrade.
Skill: Dismantle
Cost: 80 MP
Level: Common
Description: Dismantle skills from the Skill Library to obtain Skill Points (SP). Note: Can only dismantle Common-level skills.
Skill: Upgrade
Cost: 80 MP
Level: Common
Description: Upgrade existing skills using Skill Points (SP) to enhance their effectiveness. Note: Can only upgrade Common-level skills to Uncommon level.
Kaito realized the strategic advantage these skills could provide. With Dismantle, he could break down less useful Common-level skills into SP, allowing him to refine his abilities further. Meanwhile, Upgrade would enable him to enhance his Common-level skills, making them even more powerful and potentially unlocking new possibilities.
After careful consideration, Kaito decided to purchase both skills, feeling that they would significantly contribute to his growth as an adventurer. The total cost for both skills was 160 MP, a small price to pay for the potential they offered.
With his new skills acquired, Kaito felt a surge of energy and potential. He took a moment to reflect on his journey so far and the path that lay ahead. The world of adventuring was vast, and with each new skill, he was one step closer to becoming a formidable force.
As he settled back into his chair, Kaito couldn't help but smile. The night was still young, and he was ready to embrace whatever challenges awaited him. With newfound determination, he prepared for the adventures that lay ahead, knowing that he had the tools to face them head-on.
