If Veronica had eyeballs, she would be trying to clean them to make sure that what she was looking at on the system screen was true.
"The level up does not surprise as much, but a lot of skills leveled up as well. I have always wondered if the Experience Learned through Skill Using gets a boost when the skills are used while fighting and killing a strong monster. It seems that it is true. I also got five… no, six new skills, and the last two have remarkably interesting nas, mind you" said Veronica.
"Projectile Fire got integrated into Artillery Technique… it must be because they're kind of similar Skills in a way," thought Veronica.
'Projectile Fire' was a skill present only in monsters capable of launching parts of their own bodies, or certain secretions from their own bodies as projectiles. As the level increased, its power and precision would do so as well.
anwhile, 'Artillery Technique' was… Veronica did not have much idea, it was a skill that she had never studied or read about in the Skill Encyclopedia Books that she studied in her previous life.
She assud that it was the ability to fire bullets made out of her own body that made this skill possible… She assud that it might have also been related to her knowledge in Earth about artillery, though it was dim, she had a general idea on how they worked. And fought using that as a reference on her mind.
'Throwing' was the skill that she mainly used to launch her own body as bullets, which probably explains why it was also integrated into 'Artillery Technique'.
"You got a lot of skills?" asked Shade, waking Veronica from her daze.
"Ah! Yes, I did get an impressive boost in everything pretty much…"
"Gubo!" said Aqua, bouncing around while digesting spiders inside of her expanded body.
"Aqua? You didn't get max level?" asked Veronica.
"Guu? Gu!"
Flash!
Just as Veronica asked for it, Aqua ranked up!
Her liquid body began to shine brightly, crystalline light and colors flashed outside of her slimy and formless shape.
Her size increased once again by a few centiters, and her dark blue, spherical cores beca a bit larger and clearer in color, becoming almost translucent.
Aqua seed charged in energy, her entire existence exuded a relaxing aura.
[Tad Monster; Rank 4 River Sli has evolved into Rank 5 Deep River Water Sli!]
"Bloob!" said Aqua, bouncing around while firing large projectiles of water, testing her strength.
"A Deep River Water Sli? So, she didn't beco a Lake Sli as we thought" said Veronica.
"Nonetheless, it is a good achievent, congratulations, Aqua," said Shade.
"Gu!" said Aqua, jumping.
"Good girl," said Veronica, patting Aqua's 'head', the red ribbon had stayed over her body even after evolution, and it did not seem to have been affected.
"Now that I have reached Level 2 in the Ta Skill, I should get Aqua a new friend. I never expected that I would end up becoming a tar of all things… But first things all, I will absorb the exoskeleton of the Spider Queen, I suppose you can eat the rest, Aqua," said Veronica, doing as she said, she used 'Absorption Healing' in the shattered Spider Queen's exoskeleton.
The silver materials beca liquid as they rged within Veronica's Living Armor body.
[Grand Armored Spider Queen Reinforced Silver Exoskeleton] Material Successfully Absorbed; Health Points Restored]
[Please choose equipnt to discard or synthesize into]
"I will just fuse it into my main armor" decided Veronica.
[The material [Grand Armored Spider Queen Reinforced Silver Exoskeleton] and the [Obsidian Semi-Liquid Thread Crimson Dusk Living Armor] equipnt have been synthesized into the [Grand Scarlet Spider Queen's Dusk Living Armor] equipnt!]
[You gained 30 Health Points and 20 Agility!]
Veronica's dark armor slightly changed its decorations, now having eight spider-like eyes at the top of her helt, and long spider legs resembling claws over her gloves, sharp ends which were capable of slicing at as if it were a hot knife going through butter.
"My armor beca more refined… and… are these so feminine features? Though there isn't a breast armor yet… why is it? It was always the standard armor design, why has the design beco so slim?" wondered Veronica.
"Well, your soul is that of a woman, or originally was. And your phantom is as well. It probably ans that your Phantom Form is slowly shaping itself as the image that you can perceive of you" said Shade.
"My image? Oh well… ti to evolve and change Jobs, so we can get out of here at last" said Veronica, opening the 'Job Change' tab in her Samsara System.
[Jobs Available]
[Apprentice Warrior], [Armored Thrower], [Cursed Armor Brawler], [Apprentice No-Attribute Mage], [Apprentice Spirit Caster], [Sli User], [Phantasmal Armored Shield User], [Armored Shapeshifter Fighter] (New!), [Armored Artillery User] (New!), [Soul Breaker] (New!), [tallic Thread User] (New!)
"Oh? Four new Jobs! What should I choose? There are already so many options…" muttered Veronica.
"Well, now that we are traveling to the outside, there might be even more dangerous monsters or different types of dangers that we haven't expected… we will also be traveling through different types of terrain…" said Shade.
"You're right… though with my abilities I am confident that I should be able to run away with Charge… Hm, well, long-distance attacks are very useful… I know it is quite ironic coming from a close fighter like , but I've adapted to that fighting style because it was the only thing I could use and I was in a dire situation. Now that I can calmy choose, it would not be so bad to increase the strength of my Artillery Technique, magic could be beneficial as well…" said Veronica, inspecting the skills she was most interested in now.
"You want to go for an all-rounder type of fighter?" asked Shade.
"Well, that would be ideal??? Also, my Spirit Magic skill is still stuck at level 2, and I might be able to recruit another Spirit in the outside" said Veronica.
[You changed Jobs to [Apprentice Spirit Caster]!]
[The Level of the [Spirit Magic; Level 2] Skill has increased!]
"This Job should level up faster than the newest ones, as it is an Apprentice Job," said Veronica.
"Oh? I feel like our connection beca stronger… even I feel a bit more vigorous" said Shade.
"It must be the Spirit Magic Skill at level 3, now I can also conjure the 'Spirit Bond' Spell, so let's make a bond for real," said Veronica, patting Shade with her hands (gloves) and chanting the spell.
"A bond…? Oh" said Shade, sensing a thin thread of mana connecting him to Veronica.
"This is a bond; we share our mana now. This should let you draw my mana more easily. You can also feel my emotions much more, but don't go asking why I feel like this or that all the ti, you hear ?" said Veronica.
"Ah… yes?? it feels, very warm," said Shade, a bit emotional.
"Warm? Well, you are more connected to my Soul now, so that warmness must be that" said Veronica.
"I see… I've never felt like this before, I feel… complete?" analyzed Shade.
"Complete? Are you not saying that we are like two halves of orange now? Do not go romantic with this old woman, I am too old for that! Your flirting won't work as easy," said Veronica, teasing Shade.
"H-Hey! I didn't an… that!" shouted Shade, embarrassed.
"Alright, alright, you got all tsundere now" laughed Veronica.
"Bloob…?"
Aqua was confused over the conversation going on. However, she decided to ignore it and eat more of the Spider Queen's flesh, its flavor seed enticing and rich.
