บท 36: Another step
With Mizuki lying on the warm sand with her eyes closed and wearing almost nothing, even though nearly a hundread notifications had gone off it still seemed like she was sleeping.
Which she was.
After that battle where her opponent had severely underestimated her, Mizuki was entirely out of mana.
Although it does indeed regenerate at an almost near impossible speed, using more than half at once still places a burden on the body.
Anyway. Meanwhile, when the fight between Mizuki and Tana was taking place, the fight happening on the ocean was going mostly the same way.
Unlike Mizuki who took control of the fight as soon as possible, the fight between crews only shifted to Mizuki's side when an enemy cannonball had destroyed a prison cell door.
With the imprisoned crew now out and about, they chose to attack the enemy ship. Besides, it was worse being prisoners of a pirate lord than being prisoners of Mizuki.
When Hinami joined the action almost all of the enemy crew were killed in a few instants while Hinami's crew took the survivors as prisoners.
When Hinami had heard that Mizuki was fighting the enemy captain, she hurried to the scene only to find the enemy missing part of his skull and face with Mizuki sleeping besides him calmly.
The only scratch she could see on Mizuki was a horrible burn beneath her mask that slowly started to disappear.
With the surroundings charred and burned yet also frozen in other places and multiple stone spikes in smithereens, Hinami picked Mizuki up, took her to the ship and placed her in a cell with the rest of her crew.
...
Waking up, Mizuki almost instantly realized she was in a cell. Without standing up, she just calmly checked her notifications.

Thinking about her free AP a little, Mizuki reached a swift conclusion.
'Agility is definetly one of the most important stats. Reaction time and speed in general are indispencable. But.. mana is also an extremely valuable resource that I need more of while the rest of the stats should also get an increase at this stage exept for defence and vitality since I rarely get hit and using points on them would just be a waste.'
