Unassigned Essence: 151

That’s a lot more than the ninety-seven free Soul Essence I had earlier.

‘Is something wrong, Master?’

I have over a hundred and fifty free Essence now.

The moment he sent the thought to Sthuza, he realized where it came from.

It’s from killing that saurian adventurer, isn’t it?

‘I imagine so, though I must say, it is more than I would have expected you to receive.’

Doesn’t really matter right now. I’m going to stick to my plan and only spend a small amount right now. Don’t want to rush it and make a costly mistake.

Gabriel spent several minutes considering the options before him.

Intelligence and discipline are the main attributes that increase magical power. But I’m already pushing the limits for a normal human. Until I know why the cost multiplies, think I’ll pass on boosting those. How about the section under Prowess?

It took a second to navigate the Interface to the correct pane. The display looked just like it had the last time Gabriel checked: a long list of magical skills, most of which were grayed out. At the top, Arcane Magic had eighty-six. He concentrated and invested a single point of SE into it. Instead of the one point increase he’d hoped for, it climbed to eighty-nine.

Three for one?

Gabriel continued to spend one point of Essence at a time on Arcane Magic. He paused when the skill only went up by two, from ninety-five to ninety-seven. Investing three more points only raised it to one hundred and one.

Why did the ratio drop so quick?

Curious, he added points in Harness Mana and watched as it climbed up by three each time. It had started out one lower and jumped from ninety-four to ninety-seven, but then followed the same pattern as Arcane Magic.

When it reached one hundred, Gabriel stopped and switched to the last row with a rank.

Accuracy. Given it’s under the magic section, it has to help with aiming spells. Not sure how useful that will be.

Despite his doubts, Gabriel raised it to a hundred as well, then closed the Interface.

Yet another thing I need to learn. Does the growth slow because I tried to raise it several ranks at once? Or are there cutoff points where the rate changes?

He blew out a sigh and looked at his companions.

They’d started watching in the early morning. Since their arrival, the teahouse had grown noticeably busier as the lunch crowded dined.

The four of them kept a watch on the flow of people in and out of the imposing gatehouse. There were guards but also several robed bureaucrats and servants.

Gabriel spent much of the time studying the glyphs that formed the Fireball spell. Despite what he’d told his companions, his plan was risky and had no margin for error.

The crowd diminished as the lunch rush passed, and Gabriel became increasingly aware of the waitress watching them closely.

“Do not worry about her, Master, she is no doubt curious why you have three beautiful women with you, and yet you do not flirt or behave inappropriately with us.
