Chapter 9: Training
You can see that compared to before, where all my stats grew by one point per level, now some grow by two points or in the case of Intelligence that has grown by three points.
This must mean that my race is better for magic than physical damage, the problem is that most of my abilities are physical or use STM, so my race may not be proficient.
I need to train my magic somehow, I know how to train [ Line control: 1 ] that I only need to keep controlling one of my line skills and that should be enough to level both skills at the same time.
Since I came up with this training plan, I start training this one and I leave other skills for later.
I spend twenty minutes using [ Sticky Thread Production: 1 ] and controlling with [ Thread Control: 1 ], until my mana goes to zero after five uses, and this plan has already started to show its results.
Ding! Ding!
<[ Your skill leveled up [ Sticky Line Production: 1 > 2] ]>
.
<[ Your skill leveled up [ Line control: 1 >2 ] ]>
After I ate a few bites from the Horned Rabbit I went back to meditating for fifteen minutes, and after finishing the first cycle of training, I went back to the beginning of the second cycle by repeating the training.
At the end of the third cycle, after forty minutes, I did it again.
Ding! Ding!
<[ Your skill leveled up [ Sticky Line Production: 2 > 3] ]>
.
<[ Your skill leveled up [ Line control: 2 > 3 ] ]>
Each skill level not only makes the skill stronger and faster but also increases your control and accuracy with it. Maybe I only realized this because I'm leveling my skills quickly, but this is very important knowledge for me.
Now I'm going to swap the [ Sticky Thread Production: 1 ] skill with the [ Thread Production: 1 ] skill and start skill leveling again at the same time as I build a comfortable bed.
After one cycle the skill [ Line Production: 1 ] went to level 2, continuing with three more cycles I managed to level both.
Ding! Ding!
<[ Your skill leveled up [ Line Production: 2 > 3] ]>

<[ Your skill leveled up [ Line control: 3 > 4 ] ]>
.
<[ Your skill leveled up [ Meditation: 2 > 3 ] ]>
Now I rest a little, I can even recover physically eating and magically meditating, but mental fatigue is killing me, by the end of this training I had already eaten all the Horned Rabbit.
While resting I went to lie down on my new big soft bed, I got lost in my thoughts looking up at the starry sky through the hole in the ceiling of my base.
It was a beautiful starry sky, with no city full of light to stop me from seeing this sky I could see that this is my first time in two lives that I can see a starry sky.
After not knowing how much time I was wasted looking at the sky, I went back to training, what I chose to train now was the skill [Weak sense mana: 1 ], to be able to train this skill I thought all I needed was to meditate, but instead, to focus on myself I had to focus on what was around me.
Every time I was meditating to regain Mana I noticed that I was absorbing it, as well as absorbing energy from food that I like to replenish STM, I have been absorbing the Mana around me to regain MP.
Meditation probably only speeds up the individual's natural energy absorption process, both being faster recovering MP or STM.
I only realized this because I was always meditating and eating, the amount of food I eat increased a lot after I started meditating.
Stilling my thoughts, I start to meditate once more, but this time instead of focusing my senses inward, I try to focus on him around me.
I keep my eyes closed and try to feel this energy that I've been absorbing around me, after a lot of concentration and focus without knowing how much time has passed, I start to feel this energy, it's all around me, it felt like an almost imperceptible light breeze, I concentrated all of my focus on her to not lose that feeling.
Ding!
<[ Your skill leveled up [ Weak mana sense: 1 > 2 ] ]>
I continued to feel this invisible and ethereal energy, realized that it was endless and encompassed my whole body as well as my surroundings like the air, always there more imperceptible, and my body absorbs it the same way breathe.
Ding!
<[ Your skill leveled up [ Weak mana sense: 2 > 3 ] ]>
I started to feel my mind heavier, and it was getting hard to concentrate, I decided to interrupt the training, as soon as I stopped meditating I realized how mentally exhausted I was, I went to the snake and ate a quarter of its body and then went to drink water in a puddle when I go to bed, I notice the light coming from the ceiling, look up and see two moons, one with a silvery glow and the other with a bluish glow.
It was beautiful these twin moons in this vast starry sky, feeling a little more relaxed after this amazing view, I go to sleep.
zzzzzz
--------
Hmm
It seems I slept a lot, the suns were already at the highest point in the sky, I got up from my bed and went to drink water and finish eating the rest of the Flame Snake.
Ding!
<[ You have learned the following Flaming Snake skills:
[ Poor fire resistance: 1 ]
[ Snake scale production: 1] ]>
I started the day well, leaving my base and the ruins, upon reaching the puddles of red water where I was born, I enter and bathe to try to get rid of all the blood and goo that was stuck in these two days of fights.
After the bath I go to the forest to continue the exploration and hunting, I have to stock up on food again, there is nothing left in my base.
I went back to using [ Poor Blood Detection: 1 ] to find wounded monsters or fights to take advantage of the situation, and after using it three times ten minutes apart on each use, I find a reaction to the left four and a half meters from me, and I go carefully there.
Ding!
<[ Your skill leveled up [ Poor blood detection: 1 > 2 ] ]>
When I get there I see two Slimes fighting a Goblin, the result seemed obvious to see, the Goblin has a corroded arm that you can even see the bones, and several corroded wounds were bleeding, it wasn't long before he died.
I thought about what to do, the Goblin hits didn't seem to have much effect on the Slimes, so if I want to beat them I'll have to use magic, I think the only magical ability I have should be [Light Fire Puff: 1], but still not tested. I don't have time right now and I won't miss this opportunity.
Thud! Sssss!
Ahhhh!
As soon as I saw a Slime land an acid body blow on the Goblin's leg, making it impossible for him to get away I jumped into action.
I used the ability [ Jump: 1 ] to jump from the bush as fast as possible to one of the Slimes and activated the ability [ Low Fire Breath: 1 ] opening my mouth towards him and releasing a flame that reached up to fifty centimeters to in front of me and nailed the slime.
One attack didn't seem like enough, so I attacked a second time with [Low Fire Puff: 1] and it crumbled into a pot of goo with a spherical core inside.
Ding!
<[ You gained 5 EXP from killing Slime ]>
Then I turned to the other one who was still attacking the Goblin, I had to get close to him and as soon as I was close enough he tried to attack me, I was expecting it and I dodged rolling to the side and raised my head using [ Puff of fire weak: 1 ] where it was before, the second slime died with a single hit this time.
Ding!
<[ You gained 5 EXP from killing Slime ]>
As soon as I was done with the two Slimes I turned to the Goblin who was looking at me angrily and trying to reach me to attack, so I used [ Sticky Line Production: 1 ] to trap him, I walked over and bit his neck and used [ Poison secretion weak: 1 ] four times until he died.
Ding! Ding!
<[ You gained 7 EXP from killing Goblin ]>
.
.
<[ Your skill leveled up [ Weak Poison Secretion: 1 > 2 ] ]>
.
.
<[ You have leveled up ]>
That should be enough, before eating the Goblin, I go towards the Slimes, when I get to the first one I try to drink that goo that makes up your body, it was disgusting and horrible but I continued after I went and ate the second one too.
Glub! Glub! Glub!
Ding!
<[ You learned the following skills from Slime:
[Body manipulation: 1 ]
[Corrosion: 1]
Those are good skills, now I'm going to take care of the Goblin, I go to his corpse and bite his neck, start drinking all his blood.
Glub! Glub!
Ding! Ding!
