Chapter 25: Training my skills
Now that I checked out what my Devour skill can do, I should now improve the skills I have and only when they were improved, new skills would enter the foray.
What should I improve first?
Devour improved itself to level 3, probably because my first devour usage was on a demon corpse and also on its soul. It would be improved as I hunt and devour the corpses. So no need to specially train the skill.
Some of the skills have reached at least level 2, leaving only a few skills still at level 1.
Among them, I believe that the Demon Gaze is not easy to improve. So the remaining skills are Strengthen, Split, and Fusion. Fusion can be improved automatically as I fuse my split clones. So there is no need to train it.
Stengthen is a physical skill and as a spellcaster, it is useless for me. This is what others would think about it but this skill would cover my weakness. As a spellcaster, I don't use physical skills and that's what others would think. Using physical skills would catch them off-hand, and it would be my trump card.
In addition to Stengthen, there is Split that needs to be improved but I have no idea. Just like Fusion, it would improve as I use it more.
Split is very useful in many ways. I can create a clone and use it as a diversion or as a substitution when my life is in danger. I can also use it to train my other skills easier. I wonder if I can improve my attributes as well.
As you can see my HP, MP, and INT are off the charts, while my STR, STA, and AGI are very low compared to them. Usually, there are only two ways to improve non-professional attributes. It's either by training or by consuming attribute-increasing resources.
To me though, there is a third option, by consuming beast or monster meat. My Devourer Physique would take care of my attributes, as long as I take the meat. It's almost an extension of the consuming attribute resources method.
People may think that this would be more than enough, but it is not. The more methods you have to improve your strength, the better it is that you can have a peaceful life. In this world, strength is what that always matters.
If I can improve my attributes by fusing the clones, then it would be awesome but at this level, only the skill levels are improved when merged. Anyway, I can always find a clone skill that improves my attributes when my clone fuses together with me.
Even though it was not known till now, doesn't mean that it doesn't exist. Maybe I'll find it, maybe I won't but that's for the future.
[Split]
I used the skill and created a clone of mine with minimum attributes that a newly awakened would have. I also gave him my class skill, Shadow Bolt, along with Strengthen, and Intermediate Staff Arts. Other than that, I didn't copy my other talents to him. Those are far enough.
If I make my clone OP, they would be rendered useless. It would be too powerful and my skills won't improve. Even if I lose those attributes when the clone dies, it was worth the risk. It's not like a death sentence, as it is only my clone dies. Moreover, I am not sending it to hunt large creatures, only goblins.
I gave the clone my bracelet, after emptying it out. This would be useful to store the cores that it would get after killing goblins and such. I could have given the space ring but the space of that thing is much more than what I have in my bracelet.
I can't store everything that it has in my bracelet. If it was lost when the clone died, then I would beat myself for letting that happen. Instead of that, I transferred everything out from my bracelet and gave that to the clone. Even if the bracelet was lost, it wouldn't cost as much as this ring itself.
---
Now that my clone was off to do its own thing, I have something important to do. I need to open my Sea of Conscious. Only then can I not only see my INT attribute but also the way to reach Tier-4.
Yes, I can reach level 100 of Tier-3, but I read that unless the Sea of Conscious is opened, one can't get the promotion mission to reach Tier-4. they would be stuck at that rank for a long time. Moreover, there is my secondary class which was temporarily blocked until the time I opened my sea of consciousness.
This is the reason why many would try to each Tier-3 as soon as possible. A secondary class would mean, another trick up their sleeve. It would mean that there would be new class skills for them to use against their enemies.
[Ding!]
[Calculation completed...]
[New class skills determined.]
Huh, I forgot about the class skills that I should have gotten when I reached Tier-1, Tier-2, and then Tier-3.
Why have they arrived so late?
