Darius left Xela's room and returned to his own. There he saw Gunner currently exercising by doing pushups with two fingers. The fellow went down and up with ease, his toned upper body releasing copious amounts of sweat as he pushed himself.
Darius chuckled and prepared a small al for the large lad and mixed up so cool drinks. When he was done, Gunner ended his practice and wolfed down everything.
Darius also cast Cleanse on him, removing all his accumulated sweat and gri, though he knew Gunner would still shower after this as it had beco a habit. Even during their recluse, they had occasionally gone to bathe as a way of relaxation.
Gunner finished his small al and drank all the juice before heading to the bath. Darius changed his attire and cast Cleanse on the clothing, then hung it in the cabinet.
Down to his skintight Polyr Suit, Darius cast Cleanse on himself then moved to lie in the bed. He sighed with exhaustion then brought his HoloBrace close to his face.
"Miranda, connect to my anterior cingulate cortex and download all mories relevant to technology, culture, education, and history of Earth." Darius commanded.
Miranda popped up on the display, looking much better than before. She nodded with excitent and connected to Darius' mind, downloading all the things he learned or saw.
Darius had been a rchant, but that had also allowed him to see many things in life, such as the groundbreaking tech from his R&D departnt, proposals from various young geniuses hoping to get investnt, complex diagrams for new machines, or formulas for unique substances/dicines.
He had been told about the theories behind those inventions and although at the ti he had not understood things on a chanical level, Miranda was able to extract them from his eidetic mory.
It took the AI a whole 5 minutes to absorb everything. Once completed, she jumped with excitent, gazing at Darius with amazent. "Done, Daddy! Wow, there's so much exemplary information here!"
"It only filled 0.0001% of the database, but most of the information here is much more valuable than what I downloaded from that terminal!" She chirped with glee.
Then she titled her head. "Where should I store it?"
Darius chuckled. "Store all of it in a restricted section of the Supre Portal, with only myself being able to access it."
Miranda nodded. "Okay! Easily done!
"Also, where should I store all the info I'm downloading from the library?" Miranda inquired.
Darius pondered for a bit then decided. "Make it public in the cloud's database. Anyone who has a HoloBrace connected to our cloud should be able to access this info for free, but please separate it into levels of importance."
"Use your own discretion to separate the information into as many levels as you feel is wise. Make sure to grant the various users who will gain HoloBraces in our faction that also have access to our cloud later on based on their relative position."
Miranda nodded and began working. Separating the wealth of info would take so ti, so Darius put down his bracelet and rested for a bit longer.
He was lost in thought for the next hour or so while Gunner idled around as well. Ideally, Darius could continue his Magical thod studies, but he didn't really feel like doing so at this ti.
Instead, he called Gunner and Xela, as well as her wood elf friend, to have dinner. After eating sothing fancy, Darius felt slightly better and decided to check on Xela's improvent in terms of her stats.

'Hmm, interesting…' Darius noted as he wiped his lips.
It seed Xela had allocated her stats wisely. Going up 11 levels had granted her 33 AP and 11 SP. Apart from the one point in Strength, everything else had gone into Luck.
After reaching 50 points, she had not only received the Deflection ability, but she could also see the trend of fate clearer.
Unfortunately, they both discovered that Darius couldn't really do so himself, only having a vague sense, much less see anything. Darius theorized that it might be because of Xela's Divine Sight passive skill.
As for her SP, she had spread it out liberally. Bless went from level 4 to 5, Holy Ward from level 6 to 8, Cleanse from level 8 to 10, Restore from level 9 to 10, Cure from level 16 to 20 - which was the max it seed - and Pure Spirit from level 19 to 20.
Seeing this, Darius still inquired. "Why didn't you rank up Cure?"
Xela paused then answered uncertainly. "Well, because I wasn't sure. I haven't seen what happens to skills that rank up, and I don't want this useful one to lose its effects…"
Darius chuckled and showed her two different skills from his Database.
[Sparks - Level 20 Spell (MAX)
Grade: Basic
Cost: 5 MP
Description: Send out a sparkle of electricity that can zap foes into a significant paralysis. This deals 100% lightning damage.]
[Lightning Bolt - Level 21 Spell
Grade: Interdiate
Cost: 10 MP
Description: Cast a pure bolt of electricity at a foe, paralyzing them imdiately on contact. This deals 520% lightning damage.]
Xela was surprised. "This was a Basic spell you ranked up?"
Darius nodded. "That's right, Sparks was the Basic spell of the Lightning elent that had been with since the beginning. After maxing it out to 20, I thought it was the end of its journey and that I might have wasted Skill Points on it, but maxed out skills can apparently level up to the next stage."
He picked up his wine and sipped it. "In other words, if you're a Journeyman, your Basic skills and spells can level up to Interdiate, but not beyond. You'll need to beco an Adept for that."
