After they were done talking, since I had all the information I needed I deactivated elemental senses. Swiftly they detached me from the bindings, and after a short moment I was back at my cell. Going over to my bed I sit there but instead of just meditating and removing the slave seal, I finally am able to access the system. Being able to do this I take a look at my new stats.

'Wow, that was a big jump. Looks like I'm not human anymore though,' sighing to myself I find that it sucks that I'm not human anymore. Though I figured that from the way the pain happened this time, and where I'm hearing now. 'This is going to be troublesome.'
Putting that aside for now I enter a meditative state. From what I realized in my training this past month, I quickly found the slave seal. Confirming where it is I decide to wait a few more hours before I do anything about it. Meditating and continuing my grasp over mana, several hours quickly pass. Knowing that the head scientist has been gone for several hours now, I begin to break the slave seal. Surprisingly, It is fairly slow breaking it, but after several hours I finally dissipate the seal.
As the seal dissipated I could feel my strength gradually coming back. The feeling was intoxicating, but the thing that shocked me most was the feel that all the additional Dex gave me. I wasn't able to exactly pinpoint it but I could tell that I would be able to do more delicate maneuvers. Over the next hour I started to practice my martial arts, slowly getting a better grasp of my new strength. Then sending a small trail of mana, I sent a short message to Talia. 'Get ready, we're getting out of here, be close to your cells door.'
Hearing a small shriek in her cell I know she got the message, though got scared about it's suddenness. 'Finally, with the captive status gone I can finally use my inventory again.' Thinking along this line of though I summoned my scythe into my hand, reveling in the feel of the cold metal in my hands. Ensuring maximum efficiency I send Lightning and Ice coursing through my veins, the feel is different from using it through the system. It feels more efficient, more powerful. Finally I send the mana into my weapon, along with the scythe energy. A feeling of power I didn't feel when using the system envelopes me, and it makes me feel alive again.
I slice down the side of the door, destroying the hinges on the way. A moment after that slice the door just falls onto the ground, making a resounding bang sound echo through the passageway. Rushing out I stand next to Talia's cell and destroy the door in the same matter, resulting in another crashing sound. Putting away my scythe, realizing I won't be able to effectively use it in these passages. 'Create skill Elemental Martial Arts.'
-Elemental Martial Arts, thought of host have deduced this to be along the lines of your Ingenuity tree. This will take 1 Ingenuity Point and 200 points. The skill will function similar to the magic system, and its level will be determined by the base skills level, Elemental Channeling. 'Perfect, just what I was hoping it would be, little more expensive than I hoped, but I can deal with that'
First if anyone thinks of a better title please comment below. Hope you guys liked the little status update, what are your thoughts? Thank you all for reading the book. Anyone have other thoughts on possible new ingenuity skills to make that have their base in the channeling tree, let me know if you do. I appreciate your support, if you like the book tell your friend about it.
