BXBX NOVEL Chapter 102 A Bountiful Harvest
I looked into the Grimoire afterwards, I had gained a large amount of EXP, the effects of the x10 EXP Card were still on, and there were approximately twenty minutes left. I had gained 1500 EXP from the three Elite Imps, who each one gave 500 EXP rather than the 400 EXP they usually give, and then I also gained 5000 EXP from the Oni, who was a very high-leveled and high-ranked Demon, so the amount of EXP he gave was tremendous.
Boosted by the effects of Hard Worker and then the x10 EXP Card, the amount of EXP I gained was…
[Calculating EXP gained…]
[You gained 78000 EXP]
[Your Level has increased from Level 2 to Level 3]
[Your Level has increased from Level 3 to Level 4]
[Your Level has increased from Level 4 to Level 5]
[All your stats have increased]
[You gained bonus Skill Proficiency]
[You gained Stat Points and Skill Points]
[Your Spirit Orb Stage has increased from Initial Stage to Middle Stage! Your Spirit grows stronger!]
Three Levels in one go! It was completely worth it to kill that damn Oni. And with leveling to Level 5, something strange happened, I felt as if my Spirit Orb, the strange jewel that every person has in this world, began to shine brightly.
It started to shine with red light, and then it quickly went off. The energies it emanated flowed across my body, and I felt as if I was growing stronger from it. Apparently, the higher level you reach, the stronger the Spirit Orb becomes, and this also makes your Spirits Stronger.
The Spirit Orb is the "organ" that produces the most Mana aside from the soul itself, so increasing its Stages and then Rank meant more Mana and Mana Regeneration, and stronger Spirits.
Those that reach Rank 2 can even summon a second Spirit, and with each Rank, another spirit can be summoned, I don\'t know how many people at Rank 2 or higher are in the village, but there is probably less than the fingers of my hand.
It appears that it is just very hard to level up, so people cannot easily reach higher realms of their Spirit Orb "cultivation", although I wouldn\'t call it like that if it\'s tied to Leveling up their Talent… But even a "talentless" man such as myself can learn Skills anyways, although that must be related to my Grimoire giving me the advantage of choosing whatever I want, other people doesn\'t seem to have the same advantage as I do, so this is kind of my "cheat" in a way.
As I let the people healing, I looked into my Grimoire, in there, my Stats had increased. I had not realized it yet, but my body felt a bit sturdier than before, and there was a certain nimbleness to my entire physique.
It seemed that leveling up also enhanced my Physique\'s power, the more I leveled up the stronger it would grow alongside my own body. My soul had grown bigger as well, a bit bigger, and my Mana was overflowing from my body.
With a stronger and healthier body came even more Qi, so everything had increased exponentially, I was perhaps twice as strong as I was before killing the Oni, all in just a few seconds… I remember how hard it was to grow stronger in my previous life, but in this world, by simply killing, you can grow stronger… I suppose this is what incentivizes people to dangerous jobs such as Adventurers, Hunters, and more… By putting yourself in constant danger, one can grow stronger and climb the social hierarchy.
I had 30 Stat Points, so I decided to utilize them right away. I had decided to use them once more into my Mana, putting all 30 into Mana to increase the amount of "fuel" I have. I almost ran out of it in the battle, and it really put me in a pinch that I had to manage it too much, so having more Mana means I can use more Magic and perhaps even become capable of creating a Magic Circle inside of my soul eventually, that would be of great help with my growth.
And now, I also had 30 Skill Points that I could spend in anything I wanted. There was a handful of Skills to grab, so I filtered the ones that couldn\'t be learned naturally and found a few of them that I could grab. A Skill usually costs 10 Skill Points, but some of those costed more.
However, I had already decided my next Skills, so I quickly picked them up. I had previously choose them already, and they were all Skills I couldn\'t learn naturally as they were gifted to someone when they were born, or through other special Talents I don\'t have.
These Skills are classified as the Skills normal people learn through leveling up with certain Job Classes, I don\'t know yet how this works for other people, but their Skill Points might be spent automatically unlike what I can do.
Nonetheless… these Skills would vastly enhance my fighting ability and growth.
[You exchanged 30 Skill Points to learn the [Hawk Eye: Lv1], [Gifted Magic Apprentice: Lv1], and [Heavy Drinker: Lv1] Skills!]
All these Skills would be useful in my journey ahead, although they might stay at Level 1 for a while, but their help will come in handy from now on.
And with that, I\'ve also bought all the Skills that cost 10 Skill Points… anything else that cannot be naturally learned costs over 20 Skill Points, sadly…
