Getting used to life in Ingrid

Mercury and Party chatted for a bit until Party asked

[So, what is it you want to know?~]

"Well first off… What is this temple for?"

[The temple is mostly used by mortals to level up their skills~ They get a feeling once they have acquired or leveled up a skill and then use the crystal ball to level their skills up~ In rare cases, one of us 33 will descend and grant them skills using this avatar~]

"I see… Then can anyone acquire any skill?"

[Yes with enough training~ except for the skills we grant, the so-called bestowed skills~]

Mercury digested the information for a bit before he asked

"Then when mortals use the crystal ball can they see their status as I can when I use status?"

[Hmm~ Why are you so interested in mortals all of a sudden?~]

"Well… Because two of my women are mortals?"
