57 Questions for the Goddess Part 2 (Skills)

From here on are the skill-related questions

“Aren’t there any resistance skills to counter abnormal conditions?”

“Deons and some of the monsters possess them as Abilities

As for skills, they do exist but there are almost no humans who are able to acquire them

Ingesting poison and overcoht?

For you, the skill acquisition restrictions have been released thanks tothe skill as long as you have a chance, but it is difficult

In your case, evading the danger in advance will be easier thanks to the [Sense Danger] skill you earned this time

You could also use the counteragents that you have obtained, or wear accessories made from monsters that possesses those monster’s Abilities

Though if you defeat one of the Evil God’s apostles who have added resistance skills, I can purify and grant them to you preferentially”

“I obtained a [Cooking] skill, does that mean that there are skills unrelated to combat?”

“No, skills are fundamentally limited to techniques from combat-related domains

Production-class skills are also things that will eventually lead to having an advantage in combat

The [Cooking] skill is an exception In the past, one of the members of a party of heroes with ] skill, so it was produced through granting that wish

That’s why there is the possibility of gaining a teredients

Based on the particulars, it should be categorised as Legendary Class, but the person in question hoped for it to be a General Skill so as to open up a path for many people to acquire it

That said, because a status boost effect was instilled afterwards, there aren’t ate as much as that person had hoped…”

It was unexpectedly a rare skill

The principle of being able to boost one’s status through cooking was ht be convenient if I have Steph, who seems to have the aptitude, learn it

“What were the circu Sword Techniques]?

If soe MP needed to make several swords float, it seeic to be honest”

“In ancient times, there was such a sport

One where people would castthe victor that way

The ic, so it was even used for

Flying swords can’t carry one’s body weight, so it looks like preparing specialised swords that are light and sharp were the best”

I see I’ll write that down in my mental notepad

“Is skill integration not possible?

Honestly, I possess too many skills, and I don’t feel like I can use them properly on the spur of the moment”

“In regards to that, if you listen to ood”

“Request? How rare”

“Yes For my request, I’d like to recycle the skills you won’t use”

“R-recycle?”

“I already explained that half of the skills are configured froht?

In short, even if they hadn’t been used, just by possessing the skill, you are hoarding away Gifts

That’s why it’s alright for you to learn them, but I’d like to ‘Seal’ the other skills that you don’t use, along with the ones don’t really match your tastes and those that are only there for backward compatibility”

“Seal?”

“Yes

The information on your skill levels and the physical skill-related experience will remain, but I’d like you to send back the Gift part itself

That is what I ”

“So the sealed skills will become unusable?”

“When it becoain acquire it after a short period of rehabilitation

If you let ic skill that allows for skill organisation and integration, [Skill Magic]

When you use [Skill Magic], you can horizontally integrate sirate skills of the saher rank, so it should help to organise your skills column”

“The ration, [Skill Magic]” sounds co like a skill editor, huh

Horizontal integration would probably be, in other words, being able to coic], and [Earth Magic] to foric]

And vertical integration would be soic] with [Fire Spirit Magic]

There are indeed several skills that I do not use most of the time

For exa the verification of throwing spears

Even if I get the chance to throw axes in the future, it would be better to substitute it with [Throwing Techniques] rather than trying to raise the level of [Throwing Axe Techniques]

I have shurikens, knives, and spears for specialised throwing skills, as well as [Steel Thread Skills]

Further object, so I have no incentive to purposely chose throwing axes

“There’s oneI have to warn you about

There’s a limit to the amount of skills that a soul can retain, and as you approach the li skills will become more difficult

To be specific, once the nuree of difficulty of new acquisitions will double compared to when you had zero”

“Oi oi, isn’t this extremely important information!”

I used [Appraisal] to open the database and try to count the number of acquired skills

Let’s see… I have 64

There is still some room before it reaches 100, but if new acquisitions become more difficult as it increases, I’d like to condense the number henceforth

Since it seems like I can seal and archive the skills that I have acquired, I won’t need to feel conflicted about it being a waste to lose the skills I went through the trouble to learn

“I get it

It doesn’t seem to be a demerit to me either”

Instead, I should say that it’s nothing but a merit

“Thank you

However, [Skill Magic] can only be used at the altar of the Samsara Temples or places that conform to that, so be warned”

“I understand

…Huh?

But I wasn’t at the Samsara Temple when I received the oracle from Father Solow

Are the requireic] different?”

“[Oracle] is so that allows the diviner to draw out the status inforet and write it down, so it can be used even when not at a temple

[Skill Magic] requires an interactive exchange of skill information, so it cannot be done just anywhere

It is sie amounts of data on a portable terminal is difficult”

The Goddess used a blunt metaphor to explain

“As far as what the priests of the Sah aptitude, but isn’t the growth of my skills unexpectedly fast?
