Buying Skills

Mors pulls his spear out of the lifeless corpse of a lion monster. The monster in question is known as a [Sun Lion], a lion with a mane of fire and red bright fur. Mor's body is covered in blood, not his own of course. But the monsters. All around him lay countless dead monsters, of a similar species as the one he just kills.

Of course, he is not by himself, his beautiful wife is with him. As she easily dealt with the remaining monsters. This was their daily hunt. As the last monster falls to a fire attack by Zhihui. The beautiful sound of the system rings in their ears.

[For killing one Sun Lion, you earn 5,000 fate points]

[For killing 20 Fire lions, you earn 2,000 fate points]

[Warrior Rank 9->10]

As the system finishes its reports, the couple looks at each other. It has finally happened they have reached the max rank of the warrior stage. The only thing left for them to do is break through to the next stage. Of course, they could not, for they still had some skills they wanted to upgrade.

"Well I guess this means we have to buy the skills"

Mors said as he looks at Zhihui

"I guess there is no escaping buying the skills, let's go back to camp"

"Sure, thing dear"

Mors responds back to Zhihui, as she stores the corpses of the monsters in a new storage ring she got. It is a waste to let the corpses root out here when she could use them for her future plans. The couple leaves behind the battle area, the only that is left as evidence is the destruction of the environment and the dry blood on the ground.

The couple walks for a few more minutes, as they arrive at their campsite. The camp is protected by 100 or so Mors copies. They enter the camp, the copies disappearing as they do. Only to reaper again as Mors summons them. Since they have been traveling for such a long time, the couple's camp looks like a mini house.

With three main facilities, a nice bathtub, big enough for three people. A small makeshift kitchen and of course their own tent.

"I really miss the bath in our apartment, this bathtub is just not enough"

Mors said as he sees Zhihui filling up the bathtub with water for them to clean their bodies on. Then hitting it up with some fire to make it nice and warm for them. As they take off their clothes, they get into the bath together. As they use some soap to clean the blood and dirt off each other bodies.

For a normal couple, this would be a stimulating experience. But when your significant other is covered in blood, guts, and dirt. Getting turned on is the last thing that would happen. The couple takes a couple of minutes cleaning each other, not stopping till the last drop of blood or dirt is taken off their bodies.

They step out of the bathtub, using an old towel to dry their bodies up. Wearing some new clothing as neither of them wants to wear bloody and dirty clothes now. They just need to clean those clothes later, but for now, the most important thing to do is buy those skills.

Mors is the first one to spend the fate points on the skills, using 60,000 fate points to bring his axe and bow skill to the max. While he could also spend points on the mental skill he got, he really did not see the point of doing so. It was just a small support skill that help with his farming and buff-making, it is not important to his current build.

As Mors maxes out the skills, he felt a sharp pain all across his body. His muscles contract and expand, his brain becoming overstimulated as new information is imprinted into his brain. Forcing him to fall down to his knees.

"Mors! Are you alright?!"

"Yes..Yes…Must be a side effect of buying the skills"

Mors said to the worried Zhihui. But this is the first time he ever experiences something like this. Not even when he bought the talent [Soft Feet] did he feel any kind of pain.

'Maybe it's because a skill rank depends on your experience'

This is the only reason Mors could think of as to why the sudden pain, but as soon as it came, it disappears. As he slowly stood up. He cleans the sweat off his forehead as he breathes out a sigh of relief. Worry Zhihui looked at him, making sure he did not get any new wounds or scars.

"Are you fine?"

"Yea I am.. I just think that is a side effect of buying the skill rank since a skill rank is based of your experience it makes sense to feel the pain of training a skill to the max in a compressed form."

Mors said as he hears the notification of the system.

[[The Man hunter(Heaven)] and [Labyrinth shattering(Heaven)] are now rank 10]

"Um… I guess that makes sense."

"Yea, good luck Zhihui"

"Thank you Mors"

Zhihui said as she spends 160,000 fate points on upgrading her skills to the max. just like Mors she felt down to her knees as she felt a sharp pain across her body and knowledge being imprinted into his brain. But thankfully it only lasted a few minutes. With their skills fully max, it was time to upgrade them. As the couple spends the next couple of hours upgrading their skills.

With their skills now upgraded, they could now finally break through to the next stage.

"I think is around the time I use some of my points"

Mors said as he buys a special event for them, as between the couple the ground shakes and break apart. Reviling nothing more than a hot spring.

"Is this a hot spring Mors?"

"Yea it is, this is going to help us with the breakthrough. Putting the materials needed for the breakthrough in the hot spring would increase its effects and give better quality for our bones, organs, and muscles."

"Better quality?"

Zhihui ask, a bit confused

"Don't worry I will explain it to you now"
