Chapter 36 I am finally home (1)
These two helped me a lot. I mean who at my age would have that many skills? Most of them have between two and four. No sane person would have too many skills. They can\'t be improved easily and as time goes on they would become a burden.
So no one would try to get that many skills as me. Moreover, getting skills is costly. So they would mostly depend on their class skills or try to create new skills, which would be their trump cards.
I am not like them. I can get skills for cheap. So there is no problem on the Cost side. For improving those skills, there are clones that would do the work for me. I can just sit back and relax.
Even my attributes are high enough to think I might be a Tier-6 ranker. If anyone sees my HP or MP or even INT, they would lose their minds.
They have reached millions and are on their way to billions. I wonder what my attributes will look like when I reach Tier-6. It was not guaranteed though, as I needed to get a 50x bonus or the best status would be lost. No matter what, I have to get an EX-grade in my promotion mission to enter Tier-4.
I gained more than a million HP and MP per level. If I get a 50x bonus, then in Tier-4 the gains would cross 50 million per level. I can cross the billion mark before I can even cross a quarter of levels.
50,000,000*20 =1,000,000,000
One can see from this simple calculation that I can cross the billion mark by reaching level 20, but there are already millions of attributes and what I would get for crossing successfully into Tier-4. No matter what, I would reach that mark by the time I reached one-fifth of Tier-4.
As a living being I need my HP to be as high as possible and as a spellcaster, I need MP and INT to be high. I am happy with those but the issue was the other attributes.
My STR, STA, DEX & AGI are very poor compared to my HP, MP, or even INT. Even the total of those four would be far less than my INT. The attributes are increased depending on what your profession is. Otherwise, you have to consume some special resources. They are very rare and not easily obtained.
Well, the issue was that the resources were not rare but they are dangerous to even rankers when consumed directly. When consumed, they would poison the person. Unless you have level 100 in poison resistances, you can\'t consume them directly.
They needed to be processed by an alchemist before consumption. In the process, many materials are wasted and even then success is not guaranteed. So they always cost more.
I wonder if I can use my physique or devour skills to offset those problems. I should check if that is possible. If it works, for me it would be a reduction of burden on my financials.
In addition to those attributes, my new attribute, Soul Energy was a problem. There was no improvement in that when I was leveling up. I have no idea about how to increase that. In fact, I know nothing about that.
Unless the fact that it has something to do with my soul and the higher the number it is, the better it is. There was no information in the database that was accessible to me. I wonder if I can sneak into those restricted sections back at home.
Anyway, everything went as I thought, except for one thing, the only issue I faced with what I expected. My physique is not working properly. When I used to eat at home, my attributes increased a lot easily but in the forest, they dropped significantly. Nôv(el)B\\\\jnn
At first, I thought that the improvement decreased because they had reached their limits at my rank or because I was eating low-ranked meat and its usage is only that much and nothing more can be extracted from eating it. I was wrong.
There was no improvement when I reached Tier-3 nor when I started to hunt and eat meat from monsters higher than I used to. Sure the number I got was a bit higher but that\'s it. It can\'t be compared to the number that I used to gain at home.
It was then I remembered something. In this world, there are professions of cooking. There are many professions and skills when it comes to cooking and I am not one who has that profession nor the skill to cook.
My theory was that my body would digest the food and convert it into energy. Some of this energy would dissipate but my physique would intercept that energy and convert it into attributes. For better digestion, the food has to be properly prepared and in the forest, I have no such convenience.
Anyway, it\'s my theory which I can check at home. Speaking of which, I am finally home.

Winter City Entrance...
As I reached the city, there was a queue trying to enter the city.
Even though the world was a bit modernized, it was not as well connected as modern countries. There are gaps between cities which become a place of stay for monsters and bandits. From time to time, these bandits would try to enter the cities, but they would be ousted as long as the guards were strong enough.
There would be an Identity check before anyone is allowed. I too took my place in the queue, not to draw attention, waiting for my chance to enter the city.
