"Woah… So, Master Nathan, you made another skill to deal with the drawback from the previous skill?" Luna clapped her hands. "I didn\'t think you would do this. This is so smart and amazing."
Nathan smiled at Luna\'s compliment. "Is that true?"
He tried to read the description of his new skill. What he got was exactly what he expected.
Nathan had to try it directly to ensure the two skills could be used simultaneously. It was not explained how much mental healing effect the skill provides. That\'s why he needed to play it safe.
"Okay, Luna, increase this skill level to the maximum."
"All right."
[…]
[Level 5: Passive Mental Healing V.]
[400 Skill Points spent]
"How big is the effect of Mental Healing V, Luna?" Nathan turned to Luna.
He smiled at the confused response of the AI girl. "It\'s okay. It seems that the information hasn\'t been updated in your head? Let\'s try it directly."
"For some skills, the effect will be noticed when the level is raised. So maybe in a situation like this, you can try and experience it for yourself." Luna floated closer to Nathan, showing her glowing eyes.
Nathan nodded. "Of course, Luna. Thanks for explaining the system so clearly to me. You helped me a lot."
"What\'s the worst that could happen if I try this skill right now, Luna?"
Luna was taken aback, then she walked through the air, looking confused. "Hmmm, Even though the Self Mental Healing skill can help you overcome the drawback of Berserker Form skill, there is still the possibility of you losing consciousness, and… Hmmm, Hmmm." She stopped, then looked at Nathan with a worried face.
"Ah..." Nathan nodded. "Yes, I understand." He waited years for this day to come, he couldn\'t resist the slightest bit of trying, but Nathan couldn\'t act recklessly.
"I should immediately get a Hunter license and do a Hunter hunt. I think that\'s the best way for now." Nathan continued.
"Monster hunting… I love to hunt monsters. Shall we do it right now, Master Nathan? The Hunter Association is open 24 hours, right?"
Nathan smiled broadly, "Of course, they are open 24 hours. But I rarely leave the house, and-" He was silent for a moment, "I also want to tell Edna about this awakening first. So maybe we can postpone it tomorrow morning, shall we?"
"So sad… But I can wait." Luna raised both her hands with a cheerful face.
Nathan smiled, then walked over to the bed and threw himself on it.
"Why am I so exhausted, like I\'m too lazy to do anything? Is this the influence of the Sloth, Luna?"
Luna just chuckled at Nathan\'s question. "I think so too."
Luna floated after Nathan. She then sat on the crescent moon that always followed her and hovered over Nathan\'s body.
"Master Nathan, don\'t you want to find out more information you might need soon?"
Nathan opened his eyes, lifted himself up, and leaned back. "Yes, there is one thing that still haunts my mind. It is about Nicolas Gilson. He is most probably my parents\' murderer." Nathan was silent for a moment, trying to remember something. "I\'ve heard that name before. But I can\'t remember clearly, but the name is familiar to me."
"That\'s right, Master Nathan. Nicolas Gilson has a very close relationship with Mr. Devon Gardner, your father."
The crescent moon that Luna was sitting on moved swiftly to the right and left. After that, a digital screen appeared near the AI girl.
From the digital screen, a photo appeared. Although it looked different, Nathan could still identify him as Nicolas Gilson.
Feelings of hatred and anger immediately rose in his heart. Nathan frowned and clenched his fists.
"This man, Nicolas Gilson. He was the one who was at the same party as Mr. Devon in the past." Luna continued.
"The same party?" A memory flashed in his head. "That\'s right. I remember that name from a story my father told me long ago."
Luna floated back to the other side. The image on the digital screen turned into a magnificent building. After a few moments of frowning, wracking his brains, and trying to remember where he had seen it before, Nathan finally recognized the building.
"CEHA - Columbus Elite Hunter Academy."
Nathan swallowed. CEHA was a reasonably elite academy in this region. It was an academy that prepared hunters who wanted to get a license to enter Yunatea. Many talented children from famous families are educated at that academy.
Very soon, Nathan would also have to choose an academy to attend. However, he never once thought about choosing CEHA.
"Right! After I did some research, Nicolas Gilson became one of the academy\'s teachers in CEHA."
"When will this academy reopen for the new school year, Luna?"
"One month from now! And the requirements for entering the academy are that they should already be at level 50. And there are some tests as well to be followed. "
"Understood." Nathan nodded.
"Do you want to take the exam at this academy? I think that would be something really amazing. There are many talented people in that place."
Nathan was silent for a moment. The frown on his forehead really showed as he was deep in thought. "Level 50 in one month?"
Nathan swallowed. "How many monsters do I have to kill to reach such a high level, Luna?"
"Hmmm... If I calculate the average... Around 800?"
Nathan smiled, "Looks like this is going to be the busiest month of my life...." Then a sad face appeared. "800 monsters? Sounds impossible."
"But, is it doable?" Nathan looked at Luna.
"Yes, yes. You don\'t need to worry, because you have two blessings at once. Something like this is still within reach." She grinned.
At that moment, footsteps could be heard from outside. Then there was a knock on the door at the other end of the room.
"Young master, are you asleep?" Edna\'s voice called him from behind the door.
"Edna?" Nathan immediately jumped off the bed and strolled into his wheelchair.
"Edna? Is there anything I can help you with?" Nathan answered, raising his voice slightly.
"May I come in? There\'s something I want to show you."
"Show me something?" Nathan was silent. He thought about whether to discuss everything with her or postpone it for tomorrow.
Luna floated in front of Nathan. "Master Nathan. You are the only one who can see me. So you don\'t need to worry. Why don\'t you let Ms. Edna come in and tell her what you had received?" She winked one eye.
Nathan nodded. "Okay. Hmmm, you may come in, Edna."
The door opened. Edna peeked through the doorway. "Young master… Can you close your eyes for a moment, please…"
"Close my eyes?" Nathan reflexively did as Edna asked.
Edna\'s footsteps were heard approaching.
"Young master… I have a surprise for you."
Edna muttered quietly in front of him. Her scent could be smelled clearly from such a close distance.
"Happy birthday…"
Nathan opened his eyes. And Edna, with her long silver hair standing in front of him, with a cake and a candle in the shape of a 15.
"Happy birthday to you… Happy birthday to you…."
Luna floated around them with a trumpet in her hand.
Nathan felt strange when Luna acted like that, and only he could notice it.
Edna finished singing the birthday song.
"I hope you will achieve whatever you wish. May health and blessings always be with you, too." Edna smiled warmly at him. Her body bent slightly to put the cake in front of him.
Nathan was still silent. It took him some time for a smile to appear on his face. "Thanks, Edna."
Edna had never forgotten to do this every year. However, never once did Nathan do something similar to her.
No! It was not that Nathan didn\'t care about her. Only, he never knew when Edna\'s birthday was. At least she never answered when he asked.
"I have one wish for you. Will you grant it, Edna?"
"Young master…." Edna looked surprised. "Sure. I will do whatever you wish. Say what I can do for you."
"Would you celebrate your birthday on the same day as me? Today."
"Today is a special day for you. We can celebrate my birthday on another day. Now, please make a wish and blow out the candles, okay?"
Nathan took a deep breath. "Think of it as a gift I asked for on my birthday. I want Edna to blow out this candle with me."
"Hmmm, but this is a special day for you."
"Is the wish too heavy for you to fulfill, Edna?"
Edna was silent for a moment, then smiled and nodded.
"If it makes you happy."
Nathan smiled.
"Now say your wish, and we blow this candle together, okay?" She continued.
Nathan nodded, and he closed his eyes.
\'Everything in my life suddenly changed completely. Too many things happened at the same time. What do I want to get this year?\'
