Selecting the skill, Levi paused to examine the revealed description of [Active Skeletal Conversion]...
----------------------------------------
> Active Skeletal Conversion
> > Actively converts your body into a Skeletal based on your own frame or an available design from your wardrobe. The transformation converts your Mana stat into Physique stat to be used to strengthen your body. Can convert upto 80 percent of your Mana stat.
> > Your Race is transformed into a Skeletal once conversion reaches beyond 55%. Skeletals are immune to most curses and diseases and have bodies far more maleable and stronger than ordinary humans. They also do not eat, sleep, and have unlimited stamina. Vital Organs will be transformed into a core at the center of your being supporting your existence.
> >All skeletals have access to the skill: [Skeletal Body Strengthening] and [Skeletal Design].
> > Once skill is deactivated, your body slowly transforms back into your former identity. Chips, shreds, cracks and deformations will be treated as damage.
> > Active cost: The skill seals of 10% of your Mana, and consumes 50% of your mana regeneration rate.
> >>Subskills:
> >>>Skeletal Vitality (Passive) - As a Skeletal Survivability is less dependent on the Vitality Stat and more dependent on the Quality of your body.
> >>> Skeletal Regeneration (Passive) - Skeletals build and regenerate their bodies using stored bones and corpses. The system has linked this skill to Skeletal Armory.
> >>> Skeletal Armory: Wardrobe - Having the subskill Skeletal Armory from Skeletal Creation, a new feature has been added to the subskill allowing you to store designs on which you can easily transform into when using Active Skeletal Conversion.
> >>> Unique Skill Interaction: Skeletal Town: A lesser version of the ability is passed down to non-skeletal beings that both serve you and is connected to a Skeletal Town(Modified Existence Core) you own.
> >>> Unique Skill Interaction: Skeletal Kingdom: As the Skeletal Creator, and currently a Skeletal lifeform yourself, You can now teleport to the throne room of your Skeletal Kingdom. Once inside the kingdom, you can exit the dimension by ending your transformation or willing to exit the space. Both will transfer you back to your initial position, unless you decide to exit through another Skeletal Town through the link with your Kingdom.

Reading the skill, Levi just laughed. Unlike the level 30 skill option [Skeletal Transmogrification], this skill although temporary and has active mana consumption, offers far more flexibility and allows him to keep the human identity.
Heck it had even passed down the ability partially to the Tri-Elves that serve him.
...
... ...
The skill as it's name states was more of a 'conversion' skill. Sure Levi would gain [Skeletal Body Strengthening] after temporarily converting to the Skeletal Race, but what good would that do if he had transfered all of his mana into Physique?
Well he could just transform into a 55% conversion state, just enough to unlock the race related skill, but Levi guessed fully converting 80% of his mana stat be better when it comes to amplifying his body as it would not only increase his strength, it would also increase the defense of his body upon converting to a sturdier and more functional design using the additional mass that more conversion presented.
Aside from the bonus defence from the race, as well as immunity to certain biological damages, the skill didn't really add anything booming and is far from what a berserk or all in trump skill but can do, but for Levi it was enough.
...
... ...
After a series of test bouts against Crea and Hel, Levi found no sensory difference when in his Skeletal form. His touch felt like touch. He still felt pain. Which was good, though the lack of breathing indirectly impacted some of his movements.
It was a bit akward to fully exert your physical strength without experiencing some sort of tiredness, but it was a change Levi would easily welcome.
Certainly gonna be an advantage specially for the league matches later today.
...
Continuing his testing, Levi found that the overly dominant stat conversion sucked in multiple caster type required scenarios as it required him to convert back some of his Physique into Mana leaving him vulnerable to attacks after converting into a more flesh hybrid.
This can easily be remedied by simply gaining more stat points in Mana. But Levi hoped he can find a more... graceful solution for this later on.
...
Given it's only the initial stages of the game, Levi should have enough firepower though the lack of perception to fully utilize his body might come as a bit of a problem.
He skipped the part for now. Players didn't blinked and zoomed passed in a blink of an eye this stage of the game so he was fairly confident in this part. As long there is some wiggle room to react and adjust, Levi is confident he'll have enough fighting chance to turn the tables around.
...
Thinking about it further. Overall, it is a solid skill. Versatile, enough to eliminate the need to split some of his stats into Vitality and Physique.
Lacking in instantaneous burst, but synergystic enough with [Bone Armory] and [Bone Telekinesis] that he can maneuver battlefields against Crea and Hel...
.
Finally content with his testing, Levi then proceeded with his stat distribution, finishing just in time before the start of the World VR League's opening tournament.
