[Ding!]
[Your VIT stat has reached a 50-point mark!]
[Passive Skill <Super VIT> has been added!]
Whew.
Training inside the <Image Training> definitely held some perks for me to level up but also made me tired fast with fighting the mobs I can now get in my grind.
Especially with some of how my friends fought and how I should fight in waves when I'm by myself but also a great place to train my skills in the progress… a shame it can't be said for my HP and AP slowly recovering now.
Wincing a bit I can still feel sore from the training in my mind fighting a few Beacon Students for me to raise my skill and adjust to the situation.
Killing waves of Grimm to earn EXP was good at first but soon enough the decrease of EXP became apparent when the levels of the Beowolves I killed started to give me only 1 EXP for them with max effort on my end to get barely little.
But…
Glancing at my stats though it was time to start increasing where my stats would go since I have a spare 45 points to use…
Hmm…
I feel like I need to increase my STR a bit more but also my LUCK because of the whole Nightmare event wanting to be sure I never encounter something like that happen to me ever again.
Ok, then I should do it… like this.

Man…
All of these extra skills I get from my stats are crazy now that I managed to reach the 50-point mark and my STR almost reached the 100-point mark as well.
Let's see about the new skills I got…

NANI!
My eyes almost bulged seeing the perks I get with 20% HP recovery up, AP cost down, and AP recovery up all by 20%!
Damn.
This is finally starting to get more useful now and my Semblance cost won't be as much of a pain to fuel.
Smirking at this though all the perks would be in the end helping me stand my ground more in fights that matter.
Now all I need to do is grind up that <Glyphs> skill to Level 25.
Actually, what would happen if I try to fuse it with <Shadow> from Blake?
Why not?
<Fusion>.
[-Choose the following Skills to Fuse into a new one-]
Ok then…
[-Glyphs-]
[-Shadow-]
[-If the following <Glyphs> and <Shadow> fused might result in: <Shadow Monarch>-]
[-Notice if fuse you lose the materials used to fuse-]
My eyes widen at this but then I shook my head at this...
I deny it as I cancel out the options keeping the skills I have.
While the Shadow Monarch is a very impressive Skill I don't want it because of the fact that I need to ask my enemy to join me what would the Grimm do?
Nothing since I can't get them to join as they are already soulless monsters and I can't exactly use this skill on people as the more I have the more people would get to notice something wrong.
Immortal soldiers are good but just as the <Glyph> Skill is more impressive with the fact I only need to beat a Grimm and I can summon it as an ally rather than asking for it to join me.
Add the fact I might lose a teleporting skill that would allow me to fast travel it's not worth it for the versatility of <Glyph> skill along with attraction and repulsion powers are really good to have around.
So yeah…
Back to the drawing board on what else I can do with my semblance.
This could need some serious thinking about what I can do and what I can fuse.
If only I can fuse Dust it might be more useful than this or if I can somehow transfer Dust to books somehow…
Sigh...
Shaking my head at this it was better to see what else I can fuse instead maybe I should focus on getting some items for the time being.

~Ruby POV~
Looking at my teammates Blake and Yang with Weiss on my side I was confused about what they were talking about as I talked to them with a confused voice, "What? What do you mean I suddenly flashed silver light against the Nightmare?"
Yang was the first to explain to me about it when we all fought the Nightmare in Weiss's dream as she spoke to me, "Sigh… Like we said Lil sis. When you were caught in the Nightmare's clutches you suddenly released a wave of silver light on it as it screamed in pain. Whatever you did cause it to be pain? Any idea what that was about or where you are keeping a secret from us here?"
Hearing that I could only frown at this as I was confused even more as Blake began to talk to me about it, "Ruby. Are you positive you never tried that before? The whole light shows inside the Dream?"
Shaking my head even more about this Weiss just looks at me equally confused how to process about this as I couldn't help but know what happened.
All I wanted to do was protect my friends from the Grimm or what it would do harm.
Never expected to have another semblance – no.
Shaking my head more it can't be a semblance it felt something more different than that from what Blake and Yang described it.
Silver light…
Silver… eyes…
Wait…
My eyes widen a bit thinking for a bit remembering the first time I met Ozpin I began to remember something important, "Silver eyes… Headmaster Ozpin might know more about the silver light…"
Weiss hearing my words looked at me confused about this as she opens her voice of what I was talking about, "Silver Eyes? Ruby, you think Ozpin might know something about this from what Yang and Blake are talking about?"
Nodding my head that was when I began to think in my head that perhaps Ozpin let me in early because of my own eyes.
He first called them Silver Eyes as if… if he found something he knew.
Are my Silver Eyes that special?
I mean I don't think so does everyone's eyes react like this?
Augh… my head is so confused about what is going on now.
But…
Looking at my team I know one thing is that Headmaster Ozpin does know something about it perhaps I should ask what happen in the Weiss Dream to him along with my team to give them what happened.
How exactly do my Silver Eyes make me special?
And how do I use it to save people?
Sigh...
Looks like I'll have to ask tomorrow to see what the Headmaster knows and maybe how I can control my eyes to help people somehow.
