New ideas.

Rose woke up the next morning, and she calmed down and talked with Casper. Her problem was temporarily stabilized, still, Aron needed search for a solution. 

[Quest Generated]

[Name: Rose's Issues.]

[Goal: Solve Rose's issues.]

[Reward: random elemental bloodline, Rose's gratitude, 10 k KP]

'Solve her issues? For god sake really?' The task wasn't impossible, though it required to get things that were currently outside of his reach. 

This matter needed to be postponed, even if it was dangerous. Aron couldn't help her in any way at the moment. 

His thoughts wandered to Copperhead Village, where he left Joe. His only task was to compete for next village chief position. 

'He should be okay. His mother should help him…' Joe wasn't reliable person before, currently he tries hard to meet Aron's expectations with all his might. The issue is people don't change over night and Joe needs long time to become a useful person.

Joe was grandson of village chief and his father is from blacksmith family. Having two families as backing could allow him to take over village without problem. Joe didn't have such ambition and he wasted time with his friends. Aron forced him to change this fact and lost years made him worst candidate for any position. 

'I got two bizarre scrolls… Language barrier….' During his previous life, he knew most of the basic languages, and it allowed him to communicate with almost everyone. Destia was the world full of unknown and learning two or three languages won't solve anything. 

'I should find a way to communicate without knowing language? Or simply learning it so fast that it won't matter!' Brilliant idea appeared inside of his mind, finding way to improve his language acquisition skills to next level. 

'The easiest way is too learning many different kinds of languages. Any recommendations, system?' Anything could be digitalized by system, so why not digitalize godly level of language skill. This opportunity couldn't be missed.

[Host wants to improve language acquisition skill. Use library to get necessary materials for this process.]

'Yeah. I can purchase various books to improve my language.' This was simple method to improve ability to learn languages at fast speed. His idea was straightforward, let's start with languages similar to those he already knew then move slowly to harder ones and finally try decrypting or learning dead languages. 

[Host can buy unknown pack from library.]

[The random travelers got some books from Earth and book were inputted without translation to the library.]

[Those books can contain profound knowledge or useless scribbles. This is not important to the host.]

[Their price is low and host can use them for language training.]

'I have currently 1532 KP…' Getting knowledge points required mastering skills and it was long and tedious process. 

[Earth unknown pack – 200 KP]

'I hope it's something useful.' There were many things that he could actually use in this world. 

The books were in digital form inside of library interface, Aron started to go through them and segregate them into groups. The first group was easiest to learn, languages with big similarities to languages known by him. For example, English and German shared many features, and many words sounded similar or even the same. The second group were languages without connection like Arabic or African. The third group were languages of the past, for example Sumerian or Coptic.

Aron spent a few days on encrypting book in Polish, this wasn't so easy. Russian could help him to understand some words, still covering rest of them was hard and after working for many hours.

[Skill Beginner Language Decryption generated.]

'This is freaking not efficient at all. I am too slow…' His mind focused on searching new solution.

'Should I put all my skill points into this skill…No…This solution will only grant me temporary boost.' His points will run out very fast and leveling up will be even harder after using them.

Suddenly, he remembered researching person with talent to read multiple pages at the same time. This was real multitasking, separating mind into two or more threads and letting them focus on their respective tasks.

'Multitasking…Training it shouldn't be hard.' He could basically get this skill without effort, working on two separate thoughts wasn't hard. The issue was quality of work, normal humans could only focus on one thing and second thing was done automatically. There was phrase that person cannot talk and listen at the same time. 

His method of training multitasking was simple, using left hand he was sculpting the animal and using the right hand he was writing recipe for his favorite food.

[Skill Multitasking generated. Multitasking lv.0(1/200K)]

'Nice. How does is it work?' It was interesting skill, doing multiple things could make him more efficient.

[Skill Multitasking is unique skill.]

[Skill cannot be upgraded with skill points.]

[Host splits his consciousness into multiple threads to do multiple things at the same time.]

[Every thread can focus on separate thing.]

[Every thread has access to system functions.]

[Number of threads = 2 power level of skill.]

[Currently it's 0, so 2 power 0 is 1.]

'I know fucking basic math…' Doing multiple things at the same time, improving multiple skills simultaneously and multiple more possibilities opened by this skill.

'I struck gold with this idea.' Aron was happy, still it wasn't moment to triumph. This skill needed to be grinded with sweat and blood to use its full potential.

The days passed and his skill finally reached first level. It was interesting feeling; his mind was split into two separate threads. They could work together or separately on different things. 

It was time to leave space to check village and catch some fresh air. It was middle of summer, people were focused on harvest and their animals.

'It's so quiet and calm.' Life in a village was peaceful and boring. There was not much thing to entertain him.

'Their entire life is around working. It's pretty bad…'Everyone needed some kind of stress reliever, or their mental health will be in terrible state. Simple villagers had their holidays, but it was three to four times in the year. 

'That's pretty sad. They work so hard to survive, and they cannot even go to bar…' His mind was so focused on recreating technology, so he forgot about basic things of healthy society.

Suddenly, he heard Joe screaming and panting heavily.

"MASTER! I NEED YOUR HELP! PANT! PANT! MY MOTHER…PANT! PANT!" His breath was unstable and he could collapse in any moment.

"WHAT?! Tell me! What happened?" It must be serious if he ran the entire way from Copperhead Village. 

"MY MOTHER DISAPPEARED! HELP! PANT! MASTER!" It was too much for his oxygen-deprived body, he lost his consciousness and his breath started to slowly stabilize. 

'I need to go to Copperhead and investigate!' Joe couldn't give him any useful information in this state, Aron decided to leave him and go alone to check the situation.

'I hope it's nothing serious.' The bandits were dead, and it would be too soon for another bandit's group to arrive. The situation was bizarre and unpredictable, Anna was important figure in Copperhead Village. 

'Let's find out!' His speed was higher than horse's speed, so he sprinted on his own feet.
