[A/N: I made a mistake regarding the system store, but I've already fixed it by editing chapter 107 and will also show the solution here. Basically, the shop of the system only opens when MC has a Shop ticket, and when he buys one item from the shop, the shop closes again. So how could MC buy two skill stones from the shops for John and Daniel when I only ever revealed MC getting one shop ticket? The answer is that there is a rare chance of getting a shop ticket by completing a daily quest daily. I have revealed this in the edited version of chapter 107. So right now, MC has 1 shop ticket left. You can also check that edited part in chapter 107 where MC gives skill stones]

After returning to the castle, Arkhen first gave the skill stone to Nick, awakened him, and also planned to get him into the academy despite him being over the age of 30, so he could somewhat learn there. This was not normally possible, but Arkhen contacted Emily and arranged it with his authority.
