"Oh, there it is! I already can see that there have been some changes!

However, let's see them one by one, according to the order they appear in the status!"

Having made up my mind, I begin to observe the changes that have occurred in the status.

Right away, I find something that makes me a little puzzled

"Okay! Why did the question marks in front of my race increase? I had noticed it before when I only had one!

At the time, I chose to ignore it, because I thought it was nothing! However, now you have two question marks!

Why are they increasing? Wait, I think I know what the presence of these question marks in my race means!

They indicate, that I am moving away from humanity, in other words, I'm getting closer and closer to becoming one... Divine Being!

Yeah! This is the only possible explanation! Huehuehue! So you finally started to recognize my real greatness, Elizabeth! That's nice!

Anyway, let's go to the next one! Oh, just like Elizabeth told me, I level up and now I'm level 3! It seems that I'm in luck!

After all, apparently in this world, it is extremely easy to level up! Okay, let's see the next items... Oh too bad!

The Class option have no change! Maybe, I have not yet reached the level, necessary for that happen!"

I start observing my attributes, trying to see if there have been any changes

In doing so, I notice that the number of Attribute Points that I have changed

"Oh, the Attributes Points have increased! If it is the same as a RPG game, it means that I will be able to increase my Attributes with this!

Hmmm, I have 15 AP at level 3… this means that for each level I up, I must earn 5 AP! Yeah, as I imagined!

This really, looks like the mechanics of some games that I played! Okay, let me test something!"

Full of curiosity, I focus my mind on distributing the points.

When I do this, a list of the attributes that I can allocate the points appears on

"Oh, so I can add theses points, in six different attributes! They are… Strength, Dexterity, Defense, Vitality, Intelligence and Charm!

The other two attributes, don't even appear on the list… FUCK! I wanted to add some points in Luck!

Elizabeth, why do you have to be so mean? You know, although I don't know, how this Luck attribute works, for some reason

Every time I see this -10, I feel very sad! All I want to do is make my life a little happier! Is it that hard for you to understand?"

After almost five minutes, I finally manage to calm down

"I'm still going to find a way to increase my Luck! Sigh! Anyway, I think I will distribute these points, between Strength and Vitality!

The reason I choose these two attributes is actually quite simple! I will add points in Strength, because this is the attribute.

With the fewest points, I have (Actually, it is my Luck)! As for Vitality, it's even simpler!

The more Vitality I have, more Health and Stamina I will have! That means I have a better chance of surviving, in a fight!

However, before I do that, let's see the rest of my status first!"

With that, in mind I start to observe my Skills

"First of all! Let me do something I forgot to do, last time!"

I focus my mind on the first Skill, and a small screen with its description appears in front of my eyes

<Eidetic memory>

[Acquisition Method: Innate Skill]

[Type: Passive] [Makes the user able to remember everything in the smallest detail] [Cooldown: None]

[Cost: None] [Activation Condition: Always Active]

(Note: None)

"It worked! Oh, so in addition to showing what the skill does, it also shows how it was acquired, and its activation cost!

In this case, I was born with her, and it costs nothing to activate! Well, in the case of this skill this is kind of obvious!

Anyway! Let's see what others do!"

After that, I open the description of the other skills and start reading them one by one

<Distorted personality>

[Acquisition Method: Skill acquired after a major trauma in childhood]

[Type: Passive] [Makes the user automatically distort the facts around him, to make them easier to accept] [Cooldown: None]

[Cost: None] [Activation Condition: Always Active]

(Note: None)

"Oh, I didn't expect a skill with a name as strange as <Distorted Personality> would be so useful!

I think I use this skill as much as my memory! As for where I got this Skill, it is more than obvious that it was in Hell!

Well, I probably gained most of my Skills while I was there!"

<Lying >

[Acquisition Method: Skill acquired after the user, lie every day for more than ten years]

[Type: Passive] [Allows the user to think of lies, which are more convincing] [Cooldown: None]

[Cost: None] [Activation Condition: The wish of deceive someone]

(Note: The efficiency of the Skill will depend on the difference between the user's Willpower in relation to its target)

"Wait a minute! Elizabeth, are you telling me. That I used this skill so much, that it became a passive Skill?

Well, I really like to lie and deceive other people... so that makes a lot of sense!

As for this note at the end, I think I understand why the efficiency of Skill depends on Willpower!

I know from experience, which is much easier to deceive and lie to someone with a Willpower less than yours!

After all, when the person you want to deceive has a weaker Willpower than yours, they tend to give in and believe the things you say to them more easily! Even though these things seem to be pure nonsense! Well, let's continue!"

<Bullet Time>

[Acquisition Method: Skill acquired after the user has learned, how to temporarily raise their concentration to the maximum]

[Type: Active] [Makes the user's reasoning to become temporarily 100X faster] [Cooldown: 600 Seconds]

[Cost: 100 Stamina / 50 Stamina per second] [Activation Condition: Think or Say the Skill name]

(Note: After using this Skill, the user will feel a lot of headache and feel quite dizzy)

"Oh, this is interesting… so this Skill had several question marks in its name, just because I hadn't chosen a name for it?

Wait a minute! I don't remember choosing a name for the other skills. Even so, they already had a name!

So... what will be the criteria for me to be able to choose the name of my Skills?"

After saying that, I keep silent, trying to find out what those criteria are

However, even after almost five minutes, nothing comes to my mind

So I decide to give up thinking about it and continue reading what Skill does

"With that, I have one more item to add to the list of [Things that, I don't know about Elizabeth]! Sigh! Anyway!

Now that I think about it, earlier today, as soon as I decided on the name of this skill, I heard a beep.

At the time, I thought I was just hearing things that didn't exist! After all, there was no notification after the beep!

Well, I was clearly wrong! I think that, unlike other times, the beep was just to show that the Skill was successfully modified!

Because of that, there was no notifications at the time! Yeah! That makes sense! Okay, now that I've clarified that doubt.

Let's talk about the Skill itself! Well, the description of Skill is in line with what actually happens when I activate it.

In fact, every time I activated this Skill, I felt that my reasoning became faster. However, I didn't know, it was that fast!

Anyway! You must be wondering, how did I learn to speed up my reasoning like that, right? Rest assured, I'll explain to you!

However, I do not recommend this method, as it is quite painful and somewhat repetitive.

So, you may end up getting bored! Remember... I followed this method because I was forced to do it, and not because I wanted to!

Okay, first of all, you need to know that when you die, you feel... a very contradictory feeling!

I mean... the things you see, become many times slower! However, at the same time your thoughts become many times faster!

You now, it's like watching a scene from a movie! This scene in particular, is in slow motion and has a background narration!

However, in this particular scene is narrated in a voice ten times faster than in any other scene in the film!

It is something very bizarre, but at the same time very fun to watch! It's something, kind of confusing to explain! Anyway!

After feel that sensation millions of times... I got used to it, and I learned how to temporarily imitate that feeling!

That's how I learned this Skill! Pretty easy, isn't it?"
