Chapter 4 - Reviewing Gains and Purchasing Item From Shop

Iris found herself awakening within a bed as she came back from consciousness.

Her head still felt slightly dizzy, and her body was somewhat sore but other than that there seemed to problems, which is a pleasant surprise.

The room seemed to be pitch black, but as a result of the moonlight and various sources of light coming through the window, allowed her to discern her surrounding, enabling her to recognise it as her bedroom instantly.

How she ended up here?

She was pretty sure that Orthos must have something to do with it.

'She couldn't be bothered about how she got here anyway,' Iris thought, as she signed in enjoyment at the feeling of the soft mattress as her body relaxed in comfort.

A satisfied smile emerged across her beautiful face.

When she finally felt decently rested, she finally decided to look at the gains of her meeting with Orthos.

She knew it was a bad situation and all, but she can't help but feel excited about the benefits.

"Status" Iris murmured.

[Name: Iris White]

[Age: 15]

[Race: Human]

[Class: Eranyth Warlock - Apprentice]

[Secondary Class: None]

[Strength: 10]

[Dexterity: 11]

[Constitution: 12]

[Endurance: 10]

[Intelligence: 19]

[Mana: 20]

[Appearance: 21]

[Attribute points: 7] [System points: 185]

[Shop] [Quests] [Skills]

Well, that sure is a massive improvement Iris thought, looking at her stats it seemed she is basically average at everything except one attribute point of for strength and endurance.

Comparing to a few days ago it was a significant improvement. And she still has an additional seven points to use!

She then tapped the 'Shop' button on the screen, as she finally met the requirements to assess the shop.

[Weapon arts] [Potions]

[Body arts] [Items]

[Magic arts] [Spells]

She first decided to check 'Magic arts'.

[Low-Level]

[Middle-Level]

[High-Level]

[??]

[??]

[??]

[??]

She soon found with basically 185 points she cannot seemingly afford anything currently within magic arts, so she decided to check body arts to see if she can discover anything useful.

Looking through the list of options there were still many she couldn't buy. However, there were three which caught her eye.

[ Low-level ] [ Bodybuilding ]

[ 3x times the speed of a normal workout session with half the effort. ]

[ Price: 20 SP ]

[ Buy | Cancel ]

[ Low-level ] [ Martial Arts ]

[ Hand-to-hand combat for newbies. It'll be useless against experts. ]

[ Price: 80 SP ]

[ Buy | Cancel ]

[ Low-Level ] [ Athleticism ]

[ This skill improves your basic ability to do physical things, decreasing the stamina cost of related physical skills. ]

[ Price: 80 SP ]

[ Buy| Cancel ]

Iris was interested in these skills because at the moment any magic related skills were far too expensive, so she wanted skills which can have an immediate action on her safety after experiencing the danger of her second quest she doesn't want to feel completely helpless similar to last time!

The bodybuilding skill interested Iris, as she became intrigued by the possibility of increasing her physical stats through exercise.

Iris was also interested in the 'Athleticism' skill as it seemed to be passive, which just make it instinctively easier for her body in doing any related physical activities, which she found, in the long run, will be incredibly useful.

With her decision finalised, Dana clicked 'Buy'.

[ You have bought the skill 'Low-level Bodybuilding' ]

[ You have bought the skill 'Low-level Martial Arts' ]

[ You have bought the skill 'Low-level Athleticism' ]

A large amount of information gathered in her brain, allowing her to assess memories that weren't hers.

Her body now instinctively reacted to the memories, movements of punches and kicks were rapidly executed perfectly before her eyes, showing her how to perform the skill she just bought.

Iris felt that she could copy the movements perfectly, and without a moments notice she can execute the moves displayed precisely as the memories showed her.

Suddenly, Iris starts launching kicks and punches repetitively, ten minutes later a panting Iris was gasping for breath. Now that's awesome, thought Iris.

Hmm.

She really needs to let off some steam.

Iris reached her door and opened it heading towards the bathroom. Upon entering the bathroom, Iris noticed her yet again improved looks, although the one point didn't make too large of a difference, in addition to the other three points added, it could already be seen to have made a noticeable difference towards her appearance.

These changes are seriously troublesome, how the hell will she explain this?

It's alright at the moment, but what will happen when her appearance keeps continuously improving, it will change so much that even if she had over a 100 intelligence, it wouldn't make a difference!

Signing Iris went back into her room and lay on her bed.

Well, she guesses she might as well reallocate her points now, after all she can't be hesitant as her life can be potential en danged here!

No way she is risking that just for being stingy with her points.

Looking over at her '7' points, Iris decided to put '3' in Strength, '2' in Dexterity, '1' in Constitution and 1 in endurance.

Iris felt an immediate burning pain throughout her entire body, making her convulse and spasm.

However, thanks to her lately recent experiences with pain it was somewhat bearable.

After pondering for a few minutes, Iris decided to look at the class she forcefully gained as a result of Orthos.

[Eranyth Warlock: A legendary class which can only be inherited from another individual. Considered being the strongest profession due to its legendary class-related skills "Devour" and "Dark Soul Flame", they are greatly feared and was eventually hunted down to extinction. As no one could forcefully steal the Eranyth Warlock Class, many powerful figures decided to wipe them out truly, believing that they are the greatest threat to everything within the universe.

Class Effects: 2+ points on every attribute per rank up.

+5 Intelligence per Rank Up.

+ 10 Disputable Attribute Points per Rank Up.

+ Skils Level up by 3 each Rank Up.

Assess for skills: Devour; Affects - absorbs 5% of a killed individuals attribute.

Dark Soul Flame; Affects - Bane of all magic - Contains physical and soul related damaging attributes and is superior to any other magical attribute.]

After reading the description of Eranyth Warlock, a shocked expression emerged on Iris' face. It looks like this class is going to cause me much trouble, this should be kept confidential at all cost thought Iris.
