Chapter 84 (1/2)

As Randidly sent Devan’s squad away, he had gained 3 more Lvls in Cooking, and 2 in Grace.

He saw the strange glances from Raina, but ignored them. Without the added danger of her looks, there was definitely some appeal in trying to recruit her to come back to Donnyton. Although that sorta depended on what she could accomplish with her voice…

Shaking his head, Randidly focused on his PP. Even though he didn’t want to stay and help the town too much, it couldn’t be denied that nights like this were certainly well springs of PP. He supposed that was half the reason monsters hordes were sent against Newbie Villages, to encourage skill growth.

He had 42 PP, 29 of which were used to finish of the Potion Making II Path. He earned 12 Focus getting there, as a notification.

Congratulations! You have completed the The Potion Making II Path! Battle is not the only path to strength. Understanding the world’s mysteries and using them to your own advantage will greatly increase your chance of surviving. For ahead of you, the path stretches ever onward. Effectiveness of bonuses from Potion Making skill lvl have increased. You have learned the skill Extract Lvl 1.

Extract: Separate the composite parts of a substance or mixture. Speed and thoroughness of extraction depend on skill level. Purity will increase as skill level rises.

As Randidly had expected, he had received a skill for the completion. He couldn’t currently think of any uses for it, but he supposed as he encountered more materials, he would find something.

The remaining 13 PP sat there, as Randidly frowned down at his Path options.

Watcher: 0/??, ?????, Heretic IV 0/???, Oathbreaker 0/25, Initiate of Ash I 0/75, Spear Mastery II 0/75, Path of Carnage I 0/???

The obvious choice was to now go for Spear Mastery II. It was still the bread and butter of his close combat techniques, and this would probably provide a new skill he could use. But at the same time, he was oddly drawn to the Path of Carnage path.

Both the surety of Spear Mastery II’s usefulness and the question marks in the amount of Path of Carnage made Randidly hesitate, and ultimately decide the safe option was best. At least Spear Mastery would likely result in a positive outcome, even if it took a while.

So Randidly poured his PP into that path, earning himself a point in Perception at 5, and Reaction at 10. That, combined with the bonuses that Randidly received from his soul skill, added up to a significant amount.

After allocating everything Randidly looked at his status screen.
