It took me only 20 minutes to arrive while running, I didn't gain any points in endurance, but I gained a level in the running skill.
I use the keys hidden under the carpet to open the door, and I get inside, only to find Inko in the same position I left her this morning, sitting on the sofa in front of the tv with a bottle of beer in her hand.
I ignore her and try to get to my room sneakily.
"BRAT MAKE ME DINNER." She shouted from the other side of the house.
I don't shout and move in front of her.
" What do you wish for dinner?" I said with emotionless eyes and voice.
She doesn't even look at me and simply says the usual, which results in the same quest that rewards me 100XP and +1 Dex.
I move towards the kitchen and cook some miso soup, some rice, fish, and a salad, while cooking I also gained a level in the skill.
I leave the food on the table and while going upstairs I receive the reward from the quest.
I enter my room and finally being able to relax.
I sit on my bed and I evoke my mana, now being the only time of the day where I can train.
Now that I am able to control it a bit better I try to change its shape from a ball to a disc, and then from a bullet.
--------------------------------------------

Pew Pew but magical, trough mana you are able to create bullets that deal damage, speed of bullet enchanted by 1%, precision enchanted by 1%,

--------------------------------------------
Instead of being happy I try something else, using the same bullet from before I will for it to start spinning adding a penetrating effect to the bullet, and making it faster.
--------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------
A smile forms on my face when I read the damage that can be dealt with it, and when I see the new notification the smile widens even more.
--------------------------------------------
Since you were able to create a mana related skill by yourself before Mana manipulation reached level 10, you gain 5 levels in the skill
--------------------------------------------
So there also are things like this, doesn't it means that if I do things that would require higher leveled skill levels they reach the supposed levels? Something like breakthroughs?
An idea began forming inside my head.
I open my inventory and I wear the clothes I use for fighting in the arena, but I wear a pair of running shoes.
I sneakily reach the first floor of the house, and I get out from a window.
I jump out of the window and I land on the ground, to mitigate the force I roll forward.
And even before I got up, I had already jumped and grabbed the side of the wall surrounding the house.
Using the propelling force of the jump I surpass the wall, and using the wall like a ladder, I jump even higher and reach the roof of the house near ours.
I raise myself and I get on the roof of the house.
A new notification appears.
--------------------------------------------
By doing parkour above your level, the Parkour skills have reached level 5
By doing something above your Agility level, you gained a point in Agi.
--------------------------------------------
'Finally, my first point in Agi, so doing things like this can train Agi.'
I continue running through roofs while evoking mana and turning it into threads that I then tie together, creating a rope made of mana.
This time though, apart from the creation of a new skill, I only gained a level in Mana Manipulation.
--------------------------------------------
Bind Lv.1
Kinky, you are able to evoke mana in the shape of rope and bind people, making them unable to move for 10 seconds, weaker people will be stopped for 20 seconds, and people 10 levels higher than the host will be stopped for 1 sec, every 10 levels add a second.
Cost: 50MP, 10MP/s
--------------------------------------------
'Perfect, now I also have two CC skills, the only thing I need now to become an actual jack of all trades is a buff skill.'
I decide to run around for one more hour and then get back home, but in the middle of my run, something stops me... a scream.
I immediately stop and focus fully on my hearing, trying to pinpoint the location of the scream.
*AHHHHHHH
I open my eyes to see a notification in front of me.
--------------------------------------------
You gained the skill Tracking Lv.1
Tracking Lv.1
Sniff Sniff motherfucker, while tracking objects/people/animals all your senses gets enchanted by 1%, at higher levels you will be able to see faint lights that point towards the direction of the object/person/animal.
--------------------------------------------
I ignore the notification and run towards the area of the scream.
Finding a man being robbed by a woman holding... a pistol that is actually her hand? What kind of stupid quirk is this?
--------------------------------------------
You gained a new quest
Be a hero
Goal 1: Save the person being mugged.
Bonus Goal: Capture the thief alive
Reward: 500XP, 100.000 Yen
Bonus reward: Random Box
Failure: Death of the citizen
Accept?
Yes/No
--------------------------------------------
I click yes and I check the aura of the woman by observing, when I see her aura only being green, I immediately activate Bind, making her unable to move, and without even going down, I activate spinning mana bullet, which by the way don't produce any type of sound, and shoot her in her arms and on her right leg, all the process cost 370 MP
She immediately falls to the ground, the man looks up to see who had stopped the robber but doesn't see anything since I had already moved away from that roof.
While landing on one another roof I think about something.
'Should I become a vigilante? It would be useful to train, and I can get quests like this to save citizens to fasten my level up, just from that bitch I gained 300 XP.'
