That explains why I feel like dying. I need some clarity...heh walking to the fountain she started to drink. Her health reached 150 in a matter of minutes. Wow this is great...still have the worst headache...the mana maybe?

It was slowly recharging, yet apparently the change used all of it up initially. No class nor skill hmm...well Ill find out why tomorrow. First is sleep. laying down on the floor she immediately slept, only waking up two days later.

The blue glow was still in the air as Ilea woke up, her head heavy and her whole body hurting. There was a room with a bed you idiot...thirsty getting up slowly, she went and drank some more of the fountain water.

Why dont I have the class yet though...hmm. Lets check some of the diaries. None of them mentioned anything about not getting the class after eating the grass. Whats different then? she looked around her and her gaze fell upon the books still laying on the ground.

I havent read them...they all probably have...well lets start then. grabbing some of the grass off the wall, she ate it lets just hope it doesnt hurt again... nothing happened this time and Ilea started to read through the books she had available.

The books on stances were what one might expect. A detailed description of the fighting style used by the order. Some of it seemed familiar to Ilea and other things looked rather weird. This is impossible...no human could do that... finishing up the books on stances, she started reading the books on Azarinth healing and Mana conversion. The basic ones she understood but the advanced books went over her head.

Finishing those seven books took her the better part of two weeks, taking the necessary time to understand what she was reading. She ate grass and drank from the fountain. In between she trained her body but didnt get any notification about stat changes. In addition she slept on the very old bed. It was barely a bed anymore but still better than the stone floor. Finishing up the book on Advanced healing, she grabbed the first book on history but was interrupted by a

bing You have met the requirements for a class change: Azarinth Healer Knowledge about the basics of Azarinth fighting stances and Azarinth healing, Survived the change invoked by the Bluemoon Grass.

Oh fuck yeees! nothing happened yes. she thought and more messages appeared in her mind.

Reading all of the notifications, Ilea was stunned. Well I dont know how other classes in this world are but this seems fucking amazing. Im like a mix of three different classes. I hope its strong enough to fill any of those roles in a group...or maybe the common composition of teams is different in this world. Ill see. I must say for a solo thing this is fantastic. Cant wait to try all of those skills.

Getting up, Ilea felt powerful. The stat changes increased her capabilities by an incredible amount. Walking into the library that now only collected dust, she went to the far wall. Now lets see what I have...

Taking proper form Ilea threw a solid punch, resulting in a sharp crack that briefly echoed. Checking her hand, it was fine and she didnt feel anything wrong. Looking at the wall she realized the sound came from there. Aww shit. Im awesome.

Continuing to punch, the noise reverberated through the chamber of awakening. Pieces of the stone wall started to collect at her feet. Hmm lets see if destruction does anything to inanimate objects. activating the skill with a simple thought she punched the wall.

The noise was the same as before but this time spiderweb like cracks immediately formed in a one meter radius. It didnt even use a lot of mana. Checking her stats the punch had taken only 5 Mana. Which means with my current supply I can use it 50 times in a row...nice. using the skill a couple more times she wondered if that was how the other members of the order got out. Nah I cant see dozens of holes in the walls around here...except maybe they had an earth mage to fix it again? If such a thing even exists here...

One more thing to try. Ileas body started to glow in a faint blue. It looked like she had blue tattoos on her body written in runic symbols. They could be seen on her torso, arms and legs. One tattoo went along her spine up to her neck and under her hair. They shined faintly through her pajamas. Slowly breathing out, she formed a fist with her right hand and punched.

The walls shook, dust falling from the ceiling and her fist formed a dent roughly the size of a basketball. Id be pretty good at basketball with this body Id think... still with the active Aura of State of Azarinth, she ran all the way to the room with the bed. This feels absolutely amazing. exhausting her Stamina on the poor library wall.

She couldnt stop, her power and excitement overwhelming her completely. She read the remaining books and some of the diaries in the next four days while eating Bluemoon Grass and using her skills. They slowly improved. When Destruction reached level three she received an unexpected message.

ding Azarinth Healer has reached level 2. 5 Stat points awarded.

So I do level without having to fight anything. Thats good then. Guess Ill stay down here for a while.a long while. Especially considering I have no idea where I am or how Id get out...

The weeks passed, Ileas days spent with eating, fighting the library wall and reading diaries. She studied the Stances in detail and tried to use her healing magic. Punching the walls wouldnt hurt her enough to use Reconstruction though, so the skill didnt level. She could keep up her Aura skill for longer and longer as time went on.

According to the diaries it would normally take weeks if not longer of constant training to improve a skill even by one level. The Bluemoon Grass and fountain of clarity helped speed up the process a lot. Ilea didnt have anything to measure her progress against though so she couldnt be sure.

Ill just get as strong as I can down here until I can get out. There doesnt really seem to be a downside to it. Even if it might get boring at some point Id rather stay a couple months longer in boredom than die immediately out in the forest.

There was no map or any geographical information in the remaining books whatsoever, so she knew as much about where she was as she did when she got here. Three weeks of constant training later there was nothing new to read anymore and the days became rather tedious. Sitting down Ilea again read through the Mana conversion book and thought to try something.

The main problem here is that Im bored while I wait for my mana and stamina to recover... reading through the whole book again it was still a mystery to her what it was about exactly. It talked of regulating the flows of mana but her understanding of mana itself was nothing to begin with. The concepts were foreign to her even though she understood the words.

Might as well try to meditate, maybe Ill gain some sort of clarity... looking suspiciously towards the fountain, she sat down and tried to clear her mind. Nothing happened at first. She tried in every pause for the next two days. It felt relaxing and there was nothing better to do anyways. At the end of the second day she received a message that woke her from her meditative state.

ding You have learned the General skill Meditation While in the state of meditation you cannot move. Your mana and stamina regeneration is increased by a factor of three. This factor is improved upon leveling up the skill. - lvl 1

Well thisll make my days a lot less boring. even though she was mostly just punching walls or practicing stances it was fun to her. Her body had an incredible strength that shed never even dreamed of. Even on Earth she enjoyed simply attacking a punching bag for hours on end. The only reason she didnt do it longer were responsibilities, other interesting hobbies and her bodily limitations.

She didnt have internet or even new books anymore here, so this was what was left and it wasnt bad. With the still level one meditation skill her training speed improved threefold. After another month she had improved her Destruction skill to lvl 8, her State of Azarinth skill to lvl 6, her Body of Azarinth skill to lvl 2, her Azarinth Fighting skill to lvl 7 and her Meditation skill to lvl 5. Additionally her stats improved slowly over time too. Endurance especially improved every couple days.

With her last advancement in Azarinth Fighting she received another level up, bringing her to lvl 5.

bing Azarinth Healer has reached level 5. 5 Stat points awarded. You have learned the skill Passive: Magic Perception lvl 1

This skill lets you see magic. Can be activated or deactivated on command.

Category: Body Enhancement

A skill...hah...seems useful but I cant really picture it. activating the skill, she had to shield her eyes immediately from the radiance surrounding her. Deactivate Magic Perception! she yelled in her mind.

Well that was stupid...couldve guessed the Bluemoon Grass was magical... going into the library she activated the skill again and looked at the runes she had discovered on her first day in the chamber. Interesting...theyre clearer. And they glow a faint blue. I wonder if all magic is blue with this sight. she kept the skill deactivated in the hallway but tried to use it sometimes in the library or when she was using her Destruction and Aura skill. The day came to an end and she checked her progress again, as she did every day before sleeping.

Another three months passed like this. The meditation being an actual skill helping to tremendously reduce the mental strain such a lifestyle wouldve had on her otherwise. Talking to herself still became the norm and she even started to miss her coworkers at the fast-food joint. Her goal also slowly shifted from becoming stronger to getting out of the chamber. I can see how this is an incredible privilege to have, training with the Bluemoon Grass that is but Id still like to see the sun sometime. A fourth of the Grass was already gone from one of the walls when Ilea reached level 10 in her Class.

Category: Teleportation Magic

This is it.I finally got my way out! Maybe...hopefully... activating the skill with the will to move across the hallway Ilea teleported around fifteen meters away. Man this is great...Ill have to get used to the feeling though. Not as bad as when I was teleported down here but still... holding her stomach she went and drank some water from the fountain. Now the question is, can I teleport to places I cant see and what happens when I teleport into something... going into the library she tried teleporting into one of the shelves. Only her arm would theoretically be inside the shelf.

Would still hurt like hell but maybe then Id have a way to level up my healing... The teleport worked, but her hand was pushed away from the shelf. No weird Human/shelf creature was born on that day.

Which means... trying to teleport halfway into the fountain she appeared next to it or above it. Next step halfway into the wall failed too, she always appeared next to it.

Now the leap of faith... blinking into the wall she found herself standing in front of it. YES!!! It works! Now I just have to level it up and try to teleport out of here... So she tried. Teleporting away from the chamber into any direction. There were a lot of ways to try and her skill slowly gained levels over the weeks, increasing the range and reducing the cost. After another month in the chamber Ilea was successful.

Appearing in a closed room, she was elated FUCK YEAH!! jumping up and down, Ilea looked around the room. It was a small room with only dust and stone in it but it was new. After months in her own box of stone this new one was a blessing to her. And there was a closed door in front of her.

Well well well...now whats a stone door against this... raising her fist with her Aura spell activated she punched right through the thick stone door. Outside was a familiar room. The hall she had entered after being ambushed by the wolves outside the temple. OH YES...YESYESYES!!! not able to repress her excitement she ran outside.

It was night, an ocean of stars shining bright, illuminating the sky. There were two moons and they shone brightly. Ilea simply stood there stunned, her head held up to the sky. Tears falling from her face as she breathed her first breath of fresh air in months. The wind caressing her body, blue tattoos faintly glowing from below her worn clothes. Hahahahahaahaaa standing there with tears in her eyes, the woman was laughing.

Snapping her head down suddenly she became quiet and listened I want food...something other than that bloody Grass... She couldnt hear anything so she entered the forest. It would be easy to find the temple again as it was on a slope. Starting to run, Ilea crossed the forest at a speed shed never dreamed possible. Her perception even more surprising, the light of the moon more than enough for her to make out any details around her.

Not long after, she came across a small creek. Food can wait...some real water first. jumping into the creek she splashed around in the cold water and drank mouthfuls. A rather curious sight, a grown woman splashing around in a creek in the middle of the night, laughing maniacally. Perhaps even scary considering the magical world she was in. Stopping after fifteen minutes, Ilea resumed her search for food. Soon she came across some berries. Immediately eating one of them.

ding You have been poisoned by Cinderberry, -3 HP/s for 5 Minutes

Stopping her enthusiasm her mind focused. That can kill me like three times over. I need to heal. I dont know enough about my Reconstruction spell yet. grabbing a couple more of the berries she started to run back, occasionally using blink while keeping an eye on her mana, the weird warm feeling in her chest didnt help her mind calm down either.

One and a half minutes later she was back at the temple. Using Reconstruction on herself had healed her for thirty points. That should be enough really...but I have to be sure. she was already at close to fifty health remaining. Going into the room shed smashed the door in, she blinked into the direction of the chamber. Reappearing in her familiar training space or prison of clarity, as shed started to call it, she immediately went to the fountain and drank. Without possible external danger she used her mana freely to power up Reconstruction.

One minute later she was back at full health. Man this world is insane. One berry wouldve killed me if I didnt have a fucking healing spell and a well of health... looking at the berries she wondered Maybe Ive been a little overconfident...I dont even know what level one of those Drakes is. Even if Ive grown stronger, theres stuff out there that can kill me in one hit...like a bloody berry...wait no...Cinderberry

She couldnt help but laugh at the ridiculous situation she was in. After meditating and recovering her mana she looked at one of the berries...and ate it. Mhm...at least they taste great...

bing You have been poisoned by Cinderberry, -3 HP/s for 5 Minutes

Smiling she started to use Reconstruction on her own body. The drain of the berry felt weird but it didnt hurt much. A good way to level up Reconstruction...and eat delicious berries! Repeating the steps for the other six berries she had, she leveled up Reconstruction and even received a special message at the end of her endeavor.

bing You have learned the general skill Poison Resistance You are a target of assassins or not very good at distinguishing berries. Surviving either of those you have developed a general resistance to poisons. - lvl 1

Man this is stupid...a general poison resistance? That doesnt make sense at all.then again a lot of things here dont seem to make sense and Ive barely scratched the surface. looking up she blinked outside again. This time she blinked again and found herself on the roof of the ruined temple.

Again she was stunned. Standing above the trees she could see for miles, even in the night. The forest was huge. Beautiful... Ilea stood there for an hour and simply enjoyed being outside. Ill be more careful tomorrow. I cant be overconfident. Although Ive made incredible progress. Blinking back downstairs she made herself ready to sleep and checked her status.
