['Critical Spearmanship' has reached lv . 10]
['Double-Arrow shot' has reached lv . 3]
As i used the spear as my main weapon, I was able to max its active skill level at beginner's level . Though I had no clue on how to progress towards the intermediate level other than to unlock 'Lv . 2' of 'Omni-Mastery' .
The double arrow skill also showed some progress as my secondary weapon's skill .
I rose from the small mattress I slept on as I thought of my next step .
AdvertisementThis forest could be divided into 3 main parts, firstly there was the the peripheral part where most herbivorous animals like rabbits lived .
Secondly there was the swamp sector where snakes, crocodiles and amphibians resided .
Lastly there was the central part of the forest which was inhibited by vicious, carnivorous animals like wolves and actual monsters .
As for the peripheral part, I had 2 targets to achieve there .
One, to adapt to actual battles and awaken the slightest sense of combat awareness . Two, to procure enough meat and rabbit fur for the several quests that required them . Three, to acquire the dismantling skill .
I had already finished the two first target including storing the meat in special bags to preserve them from getting bad which were made through special leather crafting .
The cave that I currently lived in was inside the swamp sector, which I had 3 targets to achieve in it as well .
One, to develop my combat awareness through battles with higher leveled monsters like crocodiles . Two, to get the herbs requested in quests which were mostly in this sector . Three, to also acquire the dismantling skill .
After the recent change in 'Omni-Mastery', the skill acquisition list changed along with it .
Instead of certain actions to do in order to acquire skills, there was a bar beside every acquirable skill, which is filled by performing the skill repeatedly .
This was actually a development of ability, which made it quite possible to acquire a skill through periodically training without much labor .
however, the point of this was that performing simple acts of the skill didn't fill the bar by much .
Take for example the dismantling skill, even after dismantling a hundred rabbits the skill acquisition bar was only filled by 35% and so I had to search for harder dismantling targets such as snakes and especially crocodiles which were quite hard to dismantle .
>>>>
I held a bone dagger which I crafted recently using the hard bones of my first crocodile victim .
The first battle with the crocodile was quite hard but much less dramatic than my first battle with a rabbit, thanks to me starting to get hold of the basics of fighting .
In fact, I decided to train something else to start with after finishing the battle .
I have decided to train and acquire a simple footwork skill while adapting to the swamp sector's surrounding .
I planned to go around to collect herbs while training the footwork skill to draw a mental map of the whole swamp sector .
As a comat newbie, although fighting a crocodile wasn't quite hard, I received quite a lot of injuries due to animal's advantage of the home ground and endurance .
If it weren't for the little herbs I collected at the very start of my journey in the swamp, and the little medicinal knowledge I took up from the books I read, these injuries would have worsened prompting me to return to the village and suspend my combat training and quest completion for the time being .
Thus, while finishing my easiest target of collecting herbs, I decided to take the advantage of the home ground for myself, before storming these crocodiles for some real combat training!
