Chapter 2 - Understanding

Chace: So to defeat the toad originally if you cut off his head he dies but he became a solo boss so he's even harder to beat now . 

Chace: hmm what to do .

Spirit : master you should try Paralyzing claw ! I'll add the one skill point to the skill . Also master unlock the regular system. My points upgrade skills into stronger skills not based on level . So 1+ into a paralyzing fang let's see what it turns into master! 

Paralyzing fang > upgraded to venomous dream ( claws now have sleep effect if target is weaker or near low hp. A sleep effect stacks and the user is sent to a nightmare dream illusion .)

Chace : This is awesome ! So each time I want to level up a skill it can keep evolving ! 

Spirit : Yes master but if you see the bar at the top right of the skill that shows how many times the skill is upgradable . You have 3 more times to upgrade the one skill you currently have . 

Chace: Ah, so there are still limits to it .

Spirit : Yes masters but you can obtain skills with limitless upgrades. Also master if you have to beat unique beasts or players to obtain new skills . For example if you fight a monster with fire power and you have no fire skills you could learn a skill from the monster . But if you fight another monster that also has fire skills or similar skills to the previous monster you fought you can't obtain any skills . And fighting players with basic or weak skills won't give you skills. The skills you can obtain are : support skills , attack , defense, counter , awakening, evolution and Ultimate skills. The harder the challenge the better skills you'll be rewarded . 

Chace : This is so much information to take in but I think I understand the concept . The system I can gain points from fights, battles and more . And those points can accumulate to upgradeable points for skills or used for stats . 

Chace: I can gain support, attack, defensive and counter skills from smaller missions or tasks . And I'm guessing for skills like awakening , evolution and ultimate skills I'll have to overcome harder fights or situations. 

Spirit: Exactly master ! You're a genius.

Chace: hehe don't flatter me . Well you are my creation haha

Spirit : technically speaking master I'm also your creator. Without me you wouldn't exist . Ha ha . 

Chace :… way to fire back spirit. 

Spirit : sorry master.

Chace : it's alright you're right thank you for rebirth ! And now I'll use this opportunity to enjoy the freedom and fun of being a player . So thank you spirit for making a boy fated to be a npc dream come true . 

Spirit : thank you master for creating me . I want to experience things with you. I know I'm just a system now but I can understand things you feel and see that I didn't before combing master so take me to the top with you ! Until the tutorial… ( spirit says quietly well let's not worry about that for now. ) 

Chace: what did you say?

Spirit: nothing master ! Let's not waste time and defeat the toad !

Chace: Ah right let's go ! 

(Chace enters the road layer for the 2nd time .) 

The toad is approaching Chace with fast speed . 

Chace : one thing I notice with your first attack . Your speed is based on jumping power . You can't change the direction once you jump off . So you'll be vulnerable the minute you miss your target . 

*Chace dodges and uses skill venomous dreams . *

The toad is frozen . 

alert toad will soon go in berserker state 

Spirit: MASTER KILL THE TOAD NOW IF HE GOES INTO A BERSERKER STATE I DONT THINK YOU'LL BE ABLE TO HANDLE HIM CUT OFF HIS HEAD NOW !

Chace : Roger ! 

Chace cuts off the head of the toad 

The Toad has been defeated

Chace : This is amazing. I'm really lucky .

 *Chace starts to cry *

Spirit : Master I sense your emotions level are rising are you alright 

Chace : Yes I'm just really really happy right now .

Chace : oh crap! I forgot tomorrow is the final day to take the entry exam for " Player Academia ". 

Chace: Until then I'll come back training until the morning there are 2 more solo dungeons I know the location to. 

Spirit : Let's keep growing, master. I'm excited to see your potential. 

Chace: So am I .

Chace : ah shit ! I have to call mom . 

Spirit: yes master will be in trouble , mother is scary when she's upset. 

Chace : Yea let's go him first then Finnish training . 

Spirit : Ha! Maybe you can gain skills from beating mom boss ! 

Chace : You. have jokes my creation . I'll let my mother know you are now an alert system like an alarm clock. 

Spirit : master how rude ! My systems are far superior than some clock! But if you want any alarms set to wake up I have those features!
