Percy was beyond excited because of the extra stat points and the fact that he had actually managed to pay attention in class!
Sure he still had ADHD and all that and couldn’t stop moving, but his Dyslexia now only affected him by -35%.
Meaning he understood 65% of what was being taught!
This was a sign that Percy was in fact setting his life on track, he is going to make his mother proud, and make sure nothing ever happens to her.
Percy had one goal today, to discover his skills and grind them.
So far he knew of only one skill he got for being the son of Poseidon, breathing underwater.
There was still a lot more to go, like control water, talking to fishes, creating goddamn earthquakes and talking to horses.
First of the horses and fishes thing is probably not going to happen, since he doesn’t have any fish and there are no horses around.
So that left, controlling water and creating earthquakes.
And since he didn’t want to destroy the school, today that is, he decided to just try and control water, hence the fountain.
Percy took both hands and dipped them in water.
He felt the water around his arm and he felt his son of Poseidon title activate.
His body became stronger and more agile, but Percy slowly pushed all that to the corner of his mind with Gamer’s mind.
Slowly he raised his hands up until he broke the water surface, he concentrated on the water under his arms and willed it to come up with him.
Slowly as Percy raised his arms above the water, two balls of water clung to his hands not letting go.
Percy grinned and brought the water balls upwards and near his face.
It was moving, like a big ball of jello and suddenly the balls busted all over Percy’s face, drenching the boy.
‘Goddamn,’ Percy cursed, ‘lost my concentration.’ Percy dipped his hands into the water again.
He felt it around his hands and again he pulled it out out of the fountain, this time holding it together as one huge ball of water.
Percy brought it up and then held it there for nearly a minute.
Percy then threw the water like a real ball and it hit the fountain and splashed back down into the water pool below.
Ping!
New Skill discovered!
You have discovered your skill as a demigod!
Water Controlling Lv-1 (43%)
Allows you to control any form of water from any source of water.
You can reconstruct it in anyway you wish and it will obey your every command.
Cost-20 MP per minute
Percy panted as he swiped the screen away, looks like he unlocked one of his powers.
This is the first skill he has that required for MP.
Percy brought out his status page and clicked on MP; Mana-80/100 Regeneration-10 per minute Percy frowned, his regeneration rate was pathetic, but it was to be expected, his Wis was only 4.
Percy learned a few things more about his powers.
Each improved somethin or the other about him.
Str- his physical strength, duh.
Vit- his endurance and defence (+25 hp per level for 10 Vits) Dex- his athleticism and precision (+10% hp regen per level for 10 dex) Int- Mana storage rate and memory (+25 mp per level for 10 Int) Wis- Mana recovery and mana scene (+10% mp regen level for 10 wis) Luc- Luck And so far he only had;
STR-2 VIT-1(+2)=3 DEX-3(+2)=5 INT-5 WIS-4 LUC-3 Which was next to nothing.
This is why Percy needed to grind big time, he did have 10 points that he could spend, but like Han Jack said, he needed to save those.
So Percy turned to the fountain again after dismissing the screens.
He gathered mana into his arms and the spoke, “water control.”
I called to the water to form a ball in his hand and it did, Percy could feel his MP drain out and into the water but Percy held on for a long as he could.
After four minutes the ball of water fell down and Percy collapsed exhausted of all his mana.
Mana-0/100
The recovery time for him would a total of 8 minutes since his recovery rate was 10%, meaning 10 MP is restored per minute.
After 10 minutes Percy got up again and focused on manipulating water again.
After another 5 minutes of water manipulation Percy crashed down again exhausted of all his mana.
Ping!
Due to constant usage skill has evolved!
Water Controlling Lv-2 (3%) Allows you to control any form of water from any source of water.
You can reconstruct it in anyway you wish and it will obey your every command.
Cost-19 MP per minute
The cost of usage went down by just one point!
Percy cursed but he knew this was how he will get strong, one step at a time.
Percy got again after 10 minutes and began the process of controlling water once again, this time he made it into a long tube of water.
Then after his man ran out and recharged he tried it again, this time he made the tube thinner and denser.
So dense that he could touch it now and use it like a normal tube.
Percy trained into the night and at around 12, midnight he collapsed again into the ground what felt like the hundredth time.
Ping!
Due to constant usage skill has evolved!
Water Controlling Lv-4 (30%)
Allows you to control any form of water from any source of water.
You can reconstruct it in anyway you wish and it will obey your every command.
Cost-17 MP per minute
Percy smiled at this, finally he was getting somewhere.
Ping!
Due to constant usage of Mana and constant Mana regeneration, +1 to Int and Wis.
Well this was getting better already.
Percy smiled at the bonus points, it seems studying and making wise choices aren’t the only ways to train Int and Wis.
Just then Percy heard somebody walking towards him, it definitely sounded like a human, not he crutches using Grover or the wheelchair bound Mr.
Brunner.
Quickly Percy splashed some water onto himself and ran, the water increased his Str, Dex and Vit by 20 points allowing him to easily escape whoever was coming towards him.
Reaching his dorm building Percy managed to jump onto the railing on the first floor and pulled himself up.
Reaching the door to his room Percy activated his skill, Sneaking, and slowly entered his room.
There he saw Grover’s hand by the side of the top bunk, the goat was snoring, badly.
Percy quietly walked in, closed the door and went into his bed.
He put his shoes away and took off his jeans.
He laid back and slowly let sleep take over him.
Ping!
You have slept in you own bed; HP and MP have been restored 100% each.
All ailments and negative status effects have been cured.
Percy woke up with the same blue box over his head.
He swiped it away and looked around.
The time was 7 in the morning.
Quickly Percy took a shower and got ready.
He changed his clothes into his uniform and grabbed his bag.
