LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 11. Forging Crimson Talents and Knowledge
Running around the cavernous interior of my new home was a liberating experience, a chance to explore the capabilities of my evolved body. Despite being around the size I was at five years old, every movement felt imbued with a newfound vitality and agility. The cave walls echoed with the sound of my footsteps as I bounded across the uneven terrain, testing the limits of my strength and speed. My limbs responded with a fluidity and grace that surpassed anything I had experienced in my previous form. Each leap and twist seemed to carry me effortlessly through the air, a testament to the enhancements granted by my evolution.
The bounce in my step was palpable, a sensation of buoyancy and energy coursing through me. It was as if my very being resonated with the natural rhythms of the earth, each movement a harmonious dance of muscle and sinew. With each lap around the cave, I fine-tuned my coordination and balance, pushing myself to explore the boundaries of what I could achieve. The darkness around me seemed to fade into insignificance as my senses heightened, attuned to every shift in air currents and subtle changes in terrain.
Bounding over rocky outcrops and darting around stalagmites, I felt a sense of joy and liberation, unlike anything I had known before. This body, with its bounciness and agility, was a marvel.
By the time I slowed to a stop, breathing evenly despite the exertion, I felt a deep sense of satisfaction. This brief exploration not only familiarized me with my new body but also instilled a newfound confidence in my abilities. As I stood amidst the natural beauty of my cave home.
I finished my run, feeling energized and ready to dive into some serious training. I wanted to push my limits and see just how fast my MP and other resources would replenish even without using the blood in my stomach.
With each skill used, I paid close attention to my MP gauge, noting how quickly it refilled after each exertion. After emptying half of all my HP, MP, and SP I noted how long it took to replenish all of them. Luckily The system page where all my information was also had a clock on it that let you know the time of day it was and even told the date it was also. Looking at it now it said 01/2/802 SC. I looked at the SC part and tried to see what that meant.
SC- Since the Creation of this world Tyrantia is In between 7 of the 13 realms.
Tyrantia: In the heart of the celestial realms, where the divine dance of fire and lightning intertwines, a newborn world emerges, bathed in the fiery glow of ambition and the crackling energy of power. Tyrantia, a world born of the union between two mighty deities, bears witness to the emergence of its newest sovereign, the offspring of fire and lightning, the harbinger of change and dominion. Upon this primordial canvas, the lesser demigod of tyrants ascends to claim his birthright, draped in the mantle of destiny and fueled by the fervor of divine inheritance. Through the tumultuous skies of Tyrantia, bolts of lightning streak amidst billowing clouds of smoke, casting an ominous glow upon the lands below, where shadows writhe in anticipation of the coming reign. Tyrantia is a world draped in the tapestry of constant strife, where the clash of wills echoes through the valleys and the cries of the oppressed mingle with the thunderous roar of the tempest. From the fiery pits of volcanic wastelands to the jagged peaks of lightning-kissed mountains, every corner of this realm bears the mark of its ruler's ambition, etched in flames and seared into the very fabric of existence. Yet amidst the chaos and turmoil, whispers of rebellion stir in the winds, as brave souls dare to challenge the iron grip of tyranny and kindle the flames of hope in the darkest of nights. For in the crucible of adversity, heroes are forged, and legends are born, their tales echoing across the ages as a testament to the resilience of the mortal spirit against the forces of divine decree. Some Gods even summon the souls of deceased heroes from this realm as they make the perfect protectors. Thus, Tyrantia stands at the precipice of destiny, a world ablaze with the fervent zeal of ambition and the crackling energy of rebellion, where the dance of fire and lightning illuminates the path to both salvation and damnation, and the fate of all hangs in the balance of mortal hands.
In this war-torn world, survival feels like a distant dream, especially for someone like me—a creature of the shadows, a weak monster in a realm that reveres strength above all else. I need to strengthen myself to survive. I can't help but feel a sense of dread creeping over me. My existence feels risky and uncertain in a world where might is worshipped and weakness is swiftly punished.
Refocusing on my training became a matter of survival in this unforgiving world. The chaos around me only reinforced the need to hone my skills, especially those like the Vampire Bolt skill, and to wield them with wisdom and precision. Also, the time needed to recover 1 point of HP was 5 minutes per point same with SP. MP was different as It was much slower to recover and needed 10 minutes per point. I am not sure why this was the case but I may find out at a later time.
Seeing how I could bring up information from the status page was quite amazing. I should use this to see if there is more information about skills and other information I can use for my growth.
Skills: With the system where skills are not static but can evolve and grow stronger, there is a dynamic process of development that goes beyond mere practice. Each skill possesses its potential, waiting to be unlocked through dedication, achievements, and sometimes even rare materials or knowledge. But some skills can not change even after hitting the max because they are locked by rank and will not evolve until the owner is at a high enough rank. The remaining information is locked.
Traits: In this intricate world where body and soul intertwine to shape a creature's essence, traits are not mere attributes but fundamental aspects that define their power, potential, and growth. These traits are ingrained in the very fabric of a creature's being, influencing everything from their physical abilities to their magical resonance with the world around them. One of the fascinating aspects of traits is their dynamic nature—they can be acquired through special actions, interactions with unique items, or even through connections with beings of higher ranks. Each acquisition of a trait represents a significant milestone in a creature's journey, marking a shift in its capabilities and identity. Some traits are inherent, and tied to a creature's species or lineage. These traits manifest from birth and evolve as the creature matures, reflecting their innate strengths and tendencies. However, beyond these inherent traits lie opportunities for further enhancement and diversification. Special actions can unlock latent traits or awaken dormant potentials within a creature. These actions could range from mastering a challenging skill to overcoming a profound personal trial. Each achievement resonates with the creature's essence, shaping and molding its traits in subtle yet profound ways. Items of great significance can also bestow traits upon a creature. These items may carry ancient enchantments, divine blessings, or remnants of powerful entities. When a creature wields or interacts closely with such items, it may absorb aspects of the item's essence, gaining corresponding traits that augment its abilities or grant unique powers. Furthermore, encounters with beings of higher ranks hold immense potential for trait acquisition. These higher-ranked beings possess wisdom, energies, or essences that can bestow traits upon those they deem worthy or significant. Such interactions often come with challenges or quests, serving as tests of character and resolve. As creatures gain traits, their growth and potential expand in tandem. Traits may enhance physical attributes like strength, agility, or resilience, but they can also deepen spiritual connections, unlocking abilities related to magic, psionics, or other metaphysical domains.
Titles: Titles in this world are not just names; they are embodiments of a soul's essence, shaping its path, powers, and potential. Divided into main titles and sub-titles, these designations hold immense significance, influencing not only the individual but also how others perceive and interact with them. The main title is a pivotal aspect of a soul's journey, representing its primary fighting style or dominant aspect of power. This title remains hidden until the individual reaches a certain rank or attains a level of strength where it manifests. It serves as a beacon of focus, enhancing and synergizing with the soul's inherent abilities and combat techniques. For example, a warrior might gain the main title of "Blade Warden," emphasizing their mastery of swordsmanship and combat tactics. On the other hand, sub-titles are intricate nuances of a soul's identity, earned through overcoming trials and challenges that test specific aspects of their character or abilities. These sub-titles are not readily displayed to others, requiring a high level of insight skill to perceive them. Each sub-title represents a milestone in the individual's growth, unlocking new powers, techniques, or insights related to the trial they conquered. For instance, a healer who overcomes a trial of mercy and self-sacrifice might gain the sub-title "Lifebinder," signifying their profound healing abilities and compassionate nature, but the boost from this is not as much as one gained from the main title. Titles not only grant power and abilities but also serve as identifiers within the societal hierarchy and among peers. They command respect, signify expertise and power instilling fear into foes.
Since I know what active and passive are I don't need to dig too much into those. Looking at them it seems that I am right, it is just like the games I played with my father. Instead, I look at the rank to see If I can find out information about that.

Looking at all this information I decided to think more about it after training my skills some more.
