Chapter 9 - Level 5. Magic theory and Tier 2 abilities (2/2)

『 Herbology 16 ➔ 18 』

『 Alchemy 17 ➔ 19 』

『 Magic Chanting 1 ➔ 5 』

『 Magic Gesturing 1 ➔ 5 』

『 Astronomy 15 ➔ 18 』

Wow. That is good progress. I even found a new skill, astronomy. And reached the 20th level in Studying. Will I get advanced tier 2 skill? Let's see.

'Skills progress'

〖 Skills〗

I looked at the studying constellation and saw 2 new bright stars connected by dim lines to the first star in the constellation corresponding to ability 'Remarkable Comprehension'.

I focused on one of the new stars.

〖 Fast reading 0/2〗

〖 You read books very fast, close to what subvocalization limit is without losing comprehension.

Note: Comprehension here is not information comprehension, but a comprehension of words you've read.〗

'Um… system what subvocalization means?'

[Most people when read pronounce words inside their mind, which slows their reading speed substantially but increases comprehension due to double intake of information.]

'So what is subvocalization limit?'

[It is limit at how fast a person can read while still using habit of reading aloud in mind. It is close to 600 wpm. 'WPM' means words per minute, by the way.]

'And what limits are without subvocalizations?'

'Wow. The skill has an upgrade, so does it mean after upgrading I can get rid of the subvocalization?'

[That is…]

'No need to hide this information, because it is pretty obvious anyway.'

[Still, what skill provides in its upgraded version you will find out after achieving qualification for upgrading.]

'Che… Whatever. Not like I care. Anyway, what is the second skill.'

〖 Better memory 0/3 〗

〖 Improves your memory in both memorizing and recalling capabilities.〗

'Interesting. Astronomy and herbology skills left, but I bet after these abilities they would look subpar but doesn't matter. I will still take a look.'

I continued inspecting my skills.

As I thought, after checking abilities from Astronomy and Herbology, I understood that they were amazing, but useless to me currently. Therefore, I ignored them for now and decided to get 2 abilities from studying skills.

But before that.

'Save progress'

〖 Save〗

Now I can get abilities.

〖 Better memory 1/3 (45)〗

〖 Fast Reading 1/2 (65)〗

By the way, it is insane that to improve fast reading ability I need to reach 65 in studying. The heck?

Anyway, Wednesday is finished. Tomorrow will be a long day, especially with learning how to use brooms. I have magicka at 4 currently so I should be okay with broom controlling… Hopefully.

Now, it's time to sleep.
