On the platform without any concept of time.

"Come, come, time to split the spoils."

Kane made a small round table on the platform, calling Kreya and the others over to sit around it.

Kreya and the others put down what they were doing and gathered around, looking at Kane with puzzled expressions.

"What spoils are we splitting? Bro, how long has it been since we last went out?" Longbei asked curiously.

This morning, when Kane checked Kreya's Skill Grid, he found that the Skill Stones on it had completely disappeared, indicating she had fully mastered them.

Not just Kreya, but all of them, including Longbei, had fully learned their skills over the past ten days. There's no better time than now, so Kane decided to bring out all his spare Skill Stones and let them choose for themselves.

"The skills I taught you before, you've all mastered them recently, haven't you? Now it's time to hand out new skills. Team benefits, get it? Don't you want them?"

Upon hearing Kane's words, Longbei immediately said excitedly, "Yes, I want them. I've been dying for this, can't wait any longer."

Kane rolled his eyes and then opened the Book of Adventure.

He laid out all the spare Skill Stones and those that no longer fit his current skill setup on the table, introducing the skills on them.

"Alright, these are all of them. You can start choosing."

Looking at the table full of skills, Longbei quietly gave a thumbs up: "Impressive."

Weren't we supposed to be serious when assigning skills? Why does it feel like we're at a street stall picking and choosing now? Kreya and the others were full of questions.

Everyone then started discussing which skill suited who, and which one might have powerful effects.

"Let me know when you've decided. I'll prepare the ritual to give you the Skill Stones."

"I'll go first. Lilu's already chosen."

Seeing Lilu hand over her Skill Stone, Kane asked, "Are you sure you want this skill?"

The reason Kane asked this was because the Skill Stone Lilu handed over was [Transform into Wolf Monarch].

Seeing the determination on Lilu's face, Kane had no choice but to comply.

The long-unused Crystal Hourglass floated again between them.

The shame-inducing ritual and incantations no longer caused any emotional ripples in Kane.

Once the ritual was completed, due to the skill's weakness, Lilu mastered it instantly.

She transformed directly into the Wolf Monarch.

Uh...

Is this not a husky?

You can't just say they look similar; they are identical.

Finally, they saw a 20-centimeter husky running around Kane and the others, looking silly.

"Awoo~"

So... fitting!

Kane resisted looking, forcing himself to turn his head, and accepted the Skill Stone from Kreya.

As expected, Kreya's choice did not surprise Kane; it was indeed the most suitable for her.

[Nightmare Soul Hunter]: After using the skill, every melee attack causes the enemy to enter a fear check.

Selecting this group battle tool, paired with Kreya's already fully mastered Ghost Form, is unimaginable.

After a brief ritual, the Skill Stone settled into Kreya's Skill Grid.

However, Kreya didn't simply receive the information or learn it; she mastered it completely.

"This power seems to be a high-level skill that only Ghost Form can grasp."

Upon hearing Kreya's words, Kane quickly pulled up her info panel to check the Skill Stones on her Skill Grid, which had started to dim.

This indicated that Kreya had begun the process of mastering the skill.

So, if two skills are somewhat related, mastering one can help you master the other more quickly.

A new discovery.

Then Kreya transformed into a pale Ghost Form and used the skill.

"Damn, that's cool!" The chemical reaction between the skill and Kreya's Ghost Form immediately brought about a startling image, and Kane couldn't help but exclaim.

Not just Kane, but Longbei and the others gathered around with their eyes wide open, the word "envy" clearly written in their eyes.

Originally, Kreya's pale Ghost Form, after using the skill, had her surrounding misty form turn into blue flames burning on her body, occasionally emitting skull-shaped flames.

Her originally transparent and spectral Armor gained a layer of dark, muted metallic hue.

The transformation imbued Kreya with a cold aura.

Even the Sword Blade in her hand was enveloped in blue flames.

With that, Kreya and Lilu began testing the new skill around them.

Kane grudgingly pulled his gaze away.

Next was Longbei, who chose the skill.

[Steel Sharpness]: Spending a fixed amount of magic power, metal weapons become sharper, and metal Armor becomes sturdier.

This skill was abandoned because it overlapped with Kane's original skills.

But it seems quite suitable for Longbei.

It might also suit Kreya, but thinking about it, it seemed to overlap with Kreya's original Origin Skills and could only add embellishment.

After a brief ritual, the Skill Stone entered Longbei's body, and he closed his eyes to study and comprehend the skill.

No matter how poor his learning ability, he was bound to learn it, as it was directly embedded in his mind and etched into his body.

"How is it? How does it feel?"

Hearing Kane's words, Longbei nodded with satisfaction.

Since the skill's magic power cost was fixed, it was negligible for Longbei, already a Silver Explorer, and keeping the skill active wouldn't impact him at all.

Lastly, there was Meizike, whose skill choice was somewhat unexpected for Kane, being.

[Powerful Medicine]: Creates a piece of Energy Medicine that, when consumed, grants comprehensive bodily enhancement. The effect is permanent and only takes effect once.

Kane couldn't help asking, "Why choose this skill?"

After all, they'd already consumed it, and it wouldn't work again.

"Experimenting, permanent enhancement effects."

Upon hearing Meizike's words, Kane understood immediately and then, through the ritual, implanted this skill into his body.

He wants to research a Potion that can permanently enhance with this skill.

Now that everyone had chosen their respective skills, Aiklonen's voice came from the sky.

"You have passed the trial and fully gained my recognition. Now it's time to receive my inheritance. I will provide each of you with the resources most suitable for you."

Indeed, Kreya seems to be his true disciple, having fully mastered Ghost Form just this morning and now announcing their trial completion.

Yet what they had learned over this period wasn't even his entire inheritance.
