"Welcome Joan to your research lab!" The Principal said to him.
The Directors clapped their hands on the process. They were present while they congratulated Joan on his new place to work. As the time of day was morning while on Saturday. The time for him to do his job has finally begun.
"Do you like the place?" Asked the Principal.
"Yeah, the researching place is just enough. Not too small or too large. But the testing grounds have to be large and has strong barriers for the skill to be tested. Also, the test dummies will be costly as we will use them to measure the skill's effectiveness," Joan said to them.
"Ah, yes of course," The Principal said to him..
Looking at a small room with a ball of crystal in the middle, Joan then tested the ball of crystal if it was working.
[Skill forge]
The skill he used summoned a burning anvil and then entered the crystal ball. Making Joan and the others felt that the temperature became hot for a second.
As he touched it, he saw the job classes he has. Touching one job class was then, he saw all his skills at that moment. That skills he has currently and also, he saw some skills he have in his prime.
[Skill forge]–a skill given by the God of Angels. A skill exclusive on him as a gift. It is the only skill that can tinker and create skills. A skill that was given to him as an overseer and the developer of all the job classes he created.
Specifically speaking, all his skills in his Grandmaster rank in the past. As he saw it, he closed the tab-like light as he didn't want to make a show-off attitude on them. Gulping, he smiled at them and then scratched his chin. Smiling at the fact that he will at last make skills.
"It is working! I will make skills soon. Anyways, who will be our skill testers? Someone capable of determining the result or flaws?" Joan said to them.
"Hahaha! You have friends that are all Legends! Can you guess them? They are willing," Mills said to him.
"Oh! Really? No one will regret this right?" Joan asked. They all chuckled at his remarks.
"As the day is still long, I will make some skills on each one of you. You will determine the results of that skill after it was handed to you," Joan instructed them.
"I have little knowledge about this but you will give us the imprint of the skill directly to our souls, right? Embedding it to our job class currently," Asked Roan.
"Yes, that is correct. I hope you will all cooperate," Joan said to them.
"Yes we will," Said Troan.
"Good, now we proceed with the skill making," Joan said to them. Lifting his hands, he made the crystal ball glow and then he applied mana to sustain the crystal ball's mana consumption. Making it glow in splendour.
Joan tinkered a bit and then a tab was made on the air. The first one he chose was the Holy Knight job class. Upon thinking of what would be the origin of the skill, he will have to choose among the types of the skill. The first one was a buff, the second was active skill or the third, the passive type.
"Hello Sir Troan, may I ask what type of skill would we create? May I ask for your suggestions?" Joan asked.
"Oh, about that. How about a skill that enhances the Holy Elemental affinity. As a Holy Knight, it will be a tremendous upgrade if they will have a skill that enhances their general skills. Specifically, the ones which use the Holy element.
"As it will be a huge help in boosting buffs and healings spell in general. You see, maybe it would help the Holy Knights who have low affinity in their elemental capacity." Troan said to him.
"Oh, I get it. But it is easier said than done. As the current capacity of my knowledge, I can make a skill that injects the element artificially on a Holy Knight job classed person but he or she has to cultivate that element. Nothing is an instant in acquiring an element and it needs a due process to make it stronger," Joan replied.
"Ah, I see. Something like you are just planting a seed and the Holy Knights have to grow it into a tree. I get your point on that. Well, let us start!" Troan said to them.
Joan then choose the passive skill as its base and then injected the Holy element into it. Creating its imprint was tricky, as the said element would seep from the imprint and then only the imprint was left. Injecting another round of elements then locking it inside, he programmed it to seep inside the elemental roots inside the soul. By cultivating it, mana was spent as nourishment on the element and they will grow into a proper element.
As they will cultivate it, they will have the element and then further make it into a stronger element from before.
Upon making the skill, Joan saw that it was good. Now for testing, he lifted a ball of light that has the imprint inside.
"You wanna test it out?" Joan asked Troan.
"Sure! Hand it to me," Troan replied.
Joan then approached him and then put it on his heart. Entering into his soul realm and Joan located his job class imprint. He attached the new skill into the imprint and it glowed. It was like a skill tree that has pulses of light into the branches which were the skills. Upon making sure nothing wrong happened, he left his soul realm and went back to his body.
"Joan! Joan, are you okay? You collapsed!" Asked Troan who was worried.
"I am okay, I just entered your soul realm and while doing so, I left my body," Joan explained.
"Please explain to us in advance, you left us worried," Troan said to him.
"Ah sorry for that, anyway, I managed to put the skill on your skill tree inside your soul realm. That means you can use the skill. I named it [Holy element mastery].
"As that skill is a passive skill and not active. Although it is a passive one, you can make it stronger by cultivating it. Making your mastery rise higher in behalf of spending your mana on the process," Joan explained.
"Ah, I will test it right away," Troan said to him.
He went into his lotus position and used the skill. Inhaling deeply and then prepared his mana for using his skill.
[Holy element mastery]
Upon using the skill, he felt that the element grew stronger. His Holy elemental growth has grown faster with every second that passed. But as his skill was used, a great mana consumption was felt by Troan. Making him stop his cultivation.
"Ahem, that Joan is impressive. It is a first in our history to experience such majestic skill making. As for my feedback, I can't control the intensity of its cultivation. Making my mana well spent in minutes. As for the new ones who are just beginners, they will surely struggle in using the skill.
"I want to suggest to let us control the speed of our cultivation. And also, as we decide the rank of the skill as is currently, I will rank it Grandmaster rank. Lower than that will have trouble in using the skill," Troan said in his remarks.
"Hmmm, a Grandmaster rank skill. Impressive! Still, we will adjust that one later on. Making it accessible to beginners will be the priority," Ion said to them.
"Yeah, I agree," Elder said to them.
"Still, this is a breakthrough. Skill researcher is just myths and legends. But we have a first in the history of Humanity. We have to celebrate such an accomplishment!" Remarks of Mills.
"Aha! How about we program it into changing its intensity with the willpower as the controller?" Joan said to them.
"Let us rest first Joan and celebrate our accomplishments. This is the first skill you created and it is a reason enough to celebrate for it," Said Greaz. Tapping his shoulders with both hands on his back.
"Yeah, let us rest first. I am wasted," Troan said to him.
Joan felt that they have to rest for a while and so he agreed to their request. They went to the cafeteria and the food was already served.
"Let's eat! I am hungry!" Troan exclaimed.
It was then, they digged-in and went into a merry mood. Eating while wearing happy faces. The school has students roaming and saw them having a feast. Making the students question themselves why a student was with the Directors. It was then, he is coined as the leecher of the school by the ones harbouring jealousy on him. Others knew him in an instant that he was with the prophets in the past. Becoming infamous was not on his plan but he didn't care.
His heart was calm and ignored their glares. Just enjoying the company of the directors for that moment they have. It was the time he has to celebrate and not be lonely. His first day of being a [Skill researcher].
