Chapter 93 Growth

I looked into the grimoire for a brief moment, as I saw the results.
[Calculating EXP…]
[You gained 26500 EXP!]
[EXP: 26500 / 20000]
[You have leveled up from Level 1 to Level 2!]
[All your stats have increased]
[You gained bonus Skill Proficiency!]
[You gained +10 Skill Points and Stat Points]
[You acquired the [Demon Slayer: Lv1] Title Skill!]
[You acquired the [x5 EXP Card] x1 Item!]
[All your health and stamina has been recovered]
Another EXP Card? But this time it is half of that… Does it means that I will get another one at Level 3? Perhaps the last one unless I get something like x1.5 EXP Card going by the logic shown in here… Maybe this is an incentive to level up faster at early game by Lucifer? I cannot really tell, but this certainly softens the struggle a little bit.
However, Lucifer is not really someone that likes to give without anything in exchange, he will probably only give these at early stages, and then leave me on my own at later ones, I have to utilize these things as efficiently as possible, perhaps they're the key to reach Level 10 faster.
I looked into my Status and quickly decided to spend the 10 Stat Points, using 5 of them in Mana and the other 5 in Intelligence, as I wanted to make my magic spells stronger.
After that, I quickly checked the Skill Tree and saw the available Skills in there, and filtered out the ones I couldn't earn naturally, giving me a list of Skills that seemed interesting.
I only thought it for a few seconds as there wasn't much time to waste by going around each Skill for too long, and I selected the Skill that could help me the most as of now.
Because I had already invested my Stat Points into magic stats, I decided to balance it out using the Skill Points into a new Skill that could enhance my body strength, one that cannot be learned naturally as it comes from the body when one is born, that is…
[You have exchanged 10 Skill Points for the [Robust Body: Lv1] Skill]
Robust Body, a Skill that enhances the growth of all my physical Stas passively, meaning that the more I work out, the more my muscles will grow stronger, the faster I will become, the more resilient I will grow, and even my bones could be enhanced and become sturdier.
This could be said to be a Skill resembling a Natural Physique, which comes with someone after they're born, it is not something that can be learned, but something that people come out with innately. I don't know if there is a Talent that grants Robust Body naturally after birth, but this ability had allowed me to acquire something that I wouldn't be able to get naturally.
I looked into my Status now that it had finally increased, Level 2 was a small number, but it seemed to bring me more stats than normal people would get.

This looked good enough. I had looked into Eleanora's Status, and she already assigned her Stat Points, deciding to add them into Strength Agility and Dexterity almost evenly, while the other 10 Skill Points were used for her to acquire the [Assassination: Lv1] Skill, which allowed her to increase her damage by up to 50% if she lands a hit to an enemy without it realizing and from behind, a perfect attack from a stealthy fighter that uses threads and meddles in the shadows such as her.

Seeing her stats, my Vampire Summon had increased her power rather well, she had acquired a greater physical fighting capabilities that greatly surpassed my own, as she was a spirit, that was to be expected. And to be honest, I was happy she had grown stronger.
Although she was also affected by the same Curse that I was, she was able to benefit from it too by earning way more stats naturally than what a single level up would give to her. She smiled back at me as she absorbed the blood of the Imp corpses leisurely, as if saying "I am incredible, aren't I?".
"Hahh… That was hard. We almost didn't made it… My spear broke too." Sighed Gradus.
"It was hard…"
"Those Imps… they're terrifyingly strong!"
"What do we do now?"
"Wait… did Blake fought too?"
"Yeah, he helped a lot, despite being so young…"
"He's already stronger than most of us…"
