Chapter 58 - Intrupts

[Congratulations, you have learned a new skill.]

[Although you may not be an expert, your experience in this area is exceptional. Unlike the untalented bumbling noobs you have experience. Due to these facts, this skill will start at a higher level due to your possible higher knowledge.]

[Pitched battle Level 5: This skill increases the force and damage you deal when fighting hand-to-hand combat. Physical limitations no longer hold you back when you're fighting hand-to-hand, and you will be unable to feel natural exhaustion when fighting an enemy.]

[New skill learned]

[Combat Coach Level 1: When teaching physical combat, your skill will now increase the likelihood of those you train to learn a physical combat skill. At higher levels, this skill will allow you to improve the retention of the physical lessons of those you teach. At level five, this skill will cause physical integration of more physical fighting techniques.]

Justin couldn't help but stare at his information screen. He had recently leveled up past four and instantly hit level six in less than a day. Lying before the group, a large gekko-like creature with curved teeth like an angler fish, two tongues, and square-shaped eyes. Attempted to attack their group. Justin moved his hands with a smooth but fast waving motion to see how fast his magical attack was before he focused his thoughtful aim with Mana Bolt. The creature died instantly from being pierced through the skull. Anna had started directing the dead creature as its corpse seemed to have proper materials from her gaze.

"Amazing." (Anna)

Justin, Greyson, Kyle, and Mark had all moved to sit down and relax, eating food while Anna mutilated the dead monster's corpse.

"What is?" (Greyson)

Anna held up the tail, which was flat and oval-shaped like some breeds of gecko, but the tail on the monster was as large as her torso. 

"If I properly prepare this, it can be a rudimentary shield without any major work on it." (Anna)

"I thought Gecko tails were more fat than bone, though." (Mark)

"Oh, that I wouldn't know, but for this creature, it seems like the tail of this monster was mutated to be more of a shield. It is mostly bone, skin, and muscle to allow fast movement. The bone is sturdy, even my tools can barely drill through it. If I treat it correctly, the skin will enable blades to slide right off, reducing the blunt force of an attack. So it will be an excellent shield." (Anna)

As she returned to work, Anna started pulling out the teeth with a smile. Mark leaned toward the others, whispering.

"Is it just me, or do you think she would get enjoyment out of pulling our teeth out like that as well?" (Mark)

"Have you seen how she acts when she doesn't have to touch others? I think you're safe." (Greyson)

"Oh... Fair point." (Mark)
