Training
After the emergency quest was completed, Everyone leveled up and received a beginner level ability.
Those who were injured returned to earth since they could leave now while others stayed to do various things.
Aren looked at his status and decided to add 3 points in the constitution and 2 points in agility. Instantly, He felt his body getting hot before feeling his strength and body physique improving tremendously.

Aren turned to his mom and Quinn before saying, "Did you two add the stat points? I think you should add them evenly for now. All three of them are essential for our survival here."
"Yep. I added them. I had 3 in strength, 5 in the constitution, and 5 in agility, so I added 3 in strength and 1 each in constitution and agility," Quinn spoke as she had already done that.

On the other hand, Lorain added her stat points after hearing Aren's words, " After evenly distributing them, I added an extra in the constitution since it represents our health here. I wonder if there are any health potions or such things here? " Lorain asked curiosity at the end because even she knew that there are health potions or such items in video games.

"Aren, do you know a way to increase the spirit energy pool's limit? It seems that leveling up doesn't increase it," Quinn asked with doubt.
"I am also wondering about that," Aren spoke with a thoughtful expression.
He fell into thought for a moment and looked at the status window before speaking out his thoughts, "This is not MMO video games where our mana increases as we level up. After all, our actual bodies are here, and some kind of force is making us stronger with mystical power in a video game manner. Hmmm...I have an idea that we could try but for now, let's open our reward."
Quinn and Lorain nodded as they opened their beginner ability boxes, and Aren also did the same.
Aren saw a small screen window appearing in front of him after he opened the box and heard the voice in his head.
[ Congratulations! You have received an ability: Icy Enchant ( Common ). ]
< Icy Enchant >
-Rank: Common.
-Cost: 3 spirit energy per second upon activation.
-Effect: Slows the movements and actions of beings hit by any of your attacks by 7%.
On the other hand, Quinn received an ability called Air Glidation ( Common ).
<Air Glidation.>
-Rank: Common.
-Cost: 6 spirit energy per second upon activation.
-Effect: Your descending speed will decrease considerably while falling down.
Lorain also opened the box and got an ability called Goodwill Aura ( Common ).
< Goodwill Aura >
-Rank: common.
-Cost: 1 Soul Point per second.
-Effect: Your good speech and good manner will be enhanced with them bringing more goodwill from others than usual.
Seeing this, Lorain was a bit confused and asked, " Aren, This ability costs me one soul point per second, but I don't see any stat called soul points here. "
Hearing that, Aren and Quinn were surprised, but Lorain raised her eyebrows right after she finished speaking because a new window appeared in front of her and said to Aren and Quinn, " Nevermind. I already know the answer. It seems that a stat called Soul Point Pool will unlock once we reach level 10. "
[ Soul Point Pool will unlock once you unlock the shackles from your soul at level 10. ]
At this moment, Fergon approached Aren with a big smile and laughed with gusto, "Hahaha, Thanks a lot, lad."
Aren turned in the voice's direction and stood up before speaking with a modest smile, "I didn't do much. Anyway, I want to ask about something. Do you know how to increase the spirit energy pool? If you know about it, then I hope you can tell us."
Aren had seen Fergon using a skill of sort with his hammer and felt that he might know something about it.
Hearing Aren, Fergon smiled and shook his head, "The answer is very easy. I think you should find it yourself. Anyway, If you want to buy weapons or armor, then come to the smithy; I'll give you a 50% discount on your first purchase."
After saying that, He walked into the town.
Aren smiled because he already had an idea, a guess, regarding that. He just needs to try and see if it was true or not.
"Mom, Quinn, let's go. We have a lot to do," Aren grinned.
The three of them left the town as Aren led them towards an area in the east of the town, where he didn't encounter any beasts the previous time he went to take red ore.
"Mom, Quinn, now we will practice. We will use our skills continuously but manually and after we expend our spirit energy, we will train and spar each other with our weapons. We have to continue this cycle until we are mentally exhausted."
Quinn nodded as she spoke with a chuckle, "I already told at home that I will return in the evening since I was going to spend the whole day at your home with auntie. Hehe, It was morning when I arrived, and three hours had passed, so it should be almost noon right now. Well, We still have a lot of time until I have to return home."
Lorain kindly smiled while Aren nodded with a grin and spoke, "Then let's start."
...
...
As they started practice, Their proficiency increased and their skills leveled up.
...
[ Your proficiency of <Stab> has increased, skill leveled up. ]
...
[ Your proficiency of <Charged Attack> has increased, skill leveled up. ]
...
[ Your proficiency of <Leap> has increased, skill leveled up. ]
"Woohoo, Aren. The combination of my <Leap> skill and this ability <Air Glidation> is awesome," Quinn spoke as she jumped 4 meters above the ground with <Leap> before activating her <Air Glidation> ability as her falling speed decreased considerably.
"Hehe, I can feel air cushioning around me and decreasing my falling speed."
Aren and Lorain were surprised as it was almost like flying.
"Hahaha, If you can increase that Leap skills power more and jump higher, you can glide for a higher and longer time in the air with that <Air Glidation> ability," Aren spoke with a laugh while watching Quinn gliding.
"Be careful, lass. Don't hit the tree," Lorain shook her head with a smile after seeing Quinn failing to control her movement in the air.
"Let's continue our training."
