Gregory was still lying there after defeating that first dungeon, which had proved to him that he would be in danger should he come across any more mystery dungeons like this. Not only did he not have the abilities to properly defend himself against a boss, only a skill that left him completely incapacitated would even bring it down. Still though, Greg decided to check his skills before he would give up on the thought that it was a total waste. He felt quite a bit stronger through that, likely due to the level of the fire elemental in comparison to his as well as the fact that he had used a GRAND level spell in order to defeat it.

Looking through the full list of spells he now possessed, Greg knew that he was far more safe than previously. His skills now consisted of some very powerful offensive spells, a defensive spell, an incredible AOE spell, and the ability to use familiars. To think his first full day with this ability would give him such cheaty status in this new world. He looked about himself, the ever present mystic sight skill granting him the ability to see that magic was everywhere on earth, just that very few knew how to make use of it. Of course, what would one expect from a world that did really have fantasy elements inside it. Earth was more amazing than Gregory could ever have imagined previously, and this new fascination made him tremble. He was eager to see what this new world would give him, and what he could do in it.

Reviewing his status and skills, he realized that he could use all 4 elementals currently available to him as well as a spinning mana lance every minute until the time he decided to head home. Using these was quickly raising his skills, and Gregory was quickly realizing that the levels were allowing him even more leeway. By mid-day, due to the elemental summoning skill being such a low level he suspected, it had reached a level of 51. This slower pace seemed to be due to the fact that experience was gained differently in fights than when training, which meant it would take longer and be less productive. Still though, it was well worth it. In addition, the wind, water, and ice elemental masteries had all reached 67, and fire mastery had reached 32. On top of that, spinning mana lance had reached 15, with 15 in Magic Mastery as well. He also noticed though, that the mana cost per elemental had dropped to only 50 a piece, allowing him to be able to cast the fire land burst spell to grind it as well. By the end of the day, his mastery skills except fire were now all 79, his fire mastery was 47, his fire land burst had become 21, and the elemental summoning was 66. His spinning mana lance and magic mastery had also reached 29. Overall, this brought the costs of all the spells down substantially, allowing him to easily keep the four elemental active at all times without noticing a strain as well as using a spinning mana lance and keeping fire land burst active at all times.

Gregory then laid down to sleep some more, getting some rest before heading home. While still at the forest clearing, he wondered why some of his skills were leveling up so quickly, and others seemed to be going up slower when they were in the same condition. He then realized it, his family had an affinity for ice, which meant somewhat for wind and water as well. It probably also slowed down fire, which is something that would be far more major, if not for the fact that he had gained a skill book which gave him the affinity for it. At this point, his wisdom made another jump, gaining 15 points this time, for discovering something in the world which nobody had discovered previously. Of course, there were hypotheses, but none with any evidence. Until of course, Gregory was able to see all the numbers in his screen. What he didn't know, is why none had figured this out, since there had to be some neutral elements that could be learned without too much trouble as well. Unless of course, they were not learnable, because normal people had a limit to what they could do while a game system is designed to give benefit without limit unless a negative status is made. At this, another 10 points in Wisdom popped up in front of him. This free status was something he could get used to, at the same time though, it was quite worrisome. At what point would another person find him and try to kill him to prevent interference in their business?

Well, seems that my grinding paid off at least. One full day in, but my skills have really shown some improvement. Reminds me of the days when I first got into Fantasy Realms United. I could train this much in a day without too much trouble. Now though, I seem to be able to do all this in real life. It seems too good to be true, but considering this morning it must be. I guess I should just continue to do all I can to raise my INT and WIS passively, as those will be incredibly beneficial in growing my powers even further, and will get me to the point that I can hold my own. Anyways, best be getting back home.

Gregory then began his walk home, going through the woods without a problem, until he noticed that the terrain suddenly changed. It was a charred wasteland type of area, the land seemingly suited for a lava elemental. Greg figured that this is what it was, another dungeon and that he would be attacked by a lava elemental. That would be far too easy though, instead when he activated his elementals he heard a voice come from a slight distance. "Oho, seems like we have a fairly skilled mage here. What can you do against a Grand Lava Mage though?" At this, the man instantly sent jets of magma heading straight for Greg. With no way to escape, he used his one ace in the hole, activating ICE MOUNTAIN FUNERAL. Even with this though, the mage had only used his own spells to melt it before continuing with another attack. While it didn't leave Greg completely empty this time, he still didn't have much left. Not enough left anyways to mount any kind of counter attack against this slew of attacks.

What can I do here, my skills are notifying me of level ups like crazy, but I am just one attack from death here. As he continued to dodge, a drop of molten lava fell from the sky, encompassing his entire body before he was forcefully sent to his room with just one health remaining. He gasped for breath and looked at his health meter. Without doubt, this was due to the Gamer's Gift ability, an ability that gave him a restore point and restored him with the same skills he had when he last rested. He knew he didn't die, he saw that the instant the health meter hit 1, he was teleported, with nothing to damage his health unless it was a constant effect. Since it only brought him as his body was on the inside and clothes, the lava was completely gone, and he checked himself in the mirror. His body appeared to be in the same condition he was in just before leaving the clearing, with the same skill levels as he had then too. All the skill levels he had gained walking and in the fight had disappeared, not that Greg cared, but he did know one thing now. He had to continue to train himself if he didn't want to die someday soon. Advertisement Support "The Legendary Gamer" PayPal Patreon Previous
