Глава 80
Дилан поднялся с пола и начал растягивать тело, чувствуя себя немного скованным после исцеления. Это было нормальное состояние, и после нескольких минут растяжки и манипуляций на выносливость он избавился от него. Вытащив карточку академии, Дилан увидел, что до встречи у него осталось около часа.
«Тренировка заняла около 30 минут, в принципе неплохо. Ускорив технику до максимума, я больше не трачу много выносливости попусту. Действительно уровень мастерства», — сказал Дилан, садясь в кресло.
Активировав накопительное кольцо, он достал из портала книгу «Навыки магических и воинских классов». Открыв ее с обратной стороны и пролистав несколько страниц, Дилан быстро нашел нужный ему навык и прочитал его описание.
«Да, судя по тому, что здесь написано, мне еще очень, очень далеко до того, чтобы сделать это нормально», — сказал Дилан, откидываясь на спинку стула.
Он попытался вспомнить все, что знал о навыках [Линии Наследий] из встреч Шарда, от Вивьен, из других книг и всего, где говорилось об этом.
Это было очень важно, потому что чем больше навыков [Line of Legacies] у человека, тем лучший выбор навыков [Line of Legacies] ему предлагался при развитии его класса, и сама эволюция класса могла быть сильнее. В этом и была проблема.
Дилан знал 3 способа получить навыки [Line of Legacies]. Выучить навыки первого Мага и Воина, что было невозможно. Получить их из системы выбора и развития класса. И развить дух, тем самым получив их, что он понимал чисто теоретически. Особенно его интересовали последние два способа.
При выборе класса Мага и Воина обычно получают навык [Аура], переработанный под особый тип маны, или как у него нетипичный, заточенный под контроль духа и воли, или навык [Чувство боя], помогающий лучше понимать ход битвы и ориентироваться в ней. Дилан получил навыки [Параллельное мышление], [Ускоренное восприятие] и развитие своей Ауры в навык [Аура тайной воли]. То, что он получил другие навыки и получил развитие своей Ауры, было необычно, но не более того. И это уже обещало ему лучший выбор навыков при развитии класса.
«Навыки, навыки, навыки», — пробормотал Дилан, уставившись в потолок. «Чтобы развить дух, нужно делать то же самое, что и настоящий Маг и Воин. Убивать монстров, сражаться насмерть, творить невероятно сложные заклинания, проводить безумные ритуалы, вести войны, сидеть в медитации месяцами. В общем, делать откровенно безумные и героические вещи».
Thinking about it further, Dylan realized that this is a kind of Karmic Magic flowing into the spiritual. How events create connections and spiritual power, how it accumulates inside to later become the appropriate ability.
"I think I understand how it works. Mage and Warrior are classes that don't rely purely on the body and magic, each of them relies on the strength of the spirit. And the more significant achievements and titles a person has, the higher the chance he has to develop the spirit. When a person acquires a spirit suitable for a Mage or Warrior, it turns into a suitable skill [Line of Heritage]... Sounds something like that." Dylan nodded to himself.
"But as far as I understand, it's incredibly difficult to develop a spirit, much less develop one suitable for the [Line of Heritage] skill. Although theoretically, [Reincarnator's Madness] is a spiritual skill, and the creation of Will is also, in theory. But if I had a will at birth, then madness is an absolutely random thing. Although this is probably how such skills should develop."
Having said this to himself, Dylan remembered that after the Adept and Mage stages, these classes focus on developing the spirit. In the case of the Great Mage, this is the ability to control the will for easy and quick casting of spells. But in the case of the Elite Warrior, everything is much more complicated.
Every Elite-level warrior must have a spiritual ability. In the case of the Ghost Blade art, it could be several abilities: A personal spiritual ability unrelated to the art of the ghost sword. [Ghost Aura] a spiritual ability that allows one to hide, block the spread of sound and absorb kinetic energy. [Incorporeality] a spiritual ability that allows one to ignore any physical attacks for a few seconds, but become very vulnerable to spiritual and some magical ones. [Ghost Blade] allows one to deal damage to all spiritual creatures and leave an icy touch that binds spirits and slows down material beings. Two of the three spiritual abilities of the clan were owned by Dylan's father, namely [Ghost Aura] and [Ghost Blade], Dylan talked to him about this topic. But Varin did not explain much to him, saying only that at one time he also will take possession two of his abilities.
Thinking further, Dylan realized that it was quite possible to cultivate the spirit, although he did not know the correct method. Although he had a great start for it. Activating [Lesser Spiritual Sense] [Rare] skill, Dylan looked at his hands and later at his body. He could see and feel his spirit, soul energy, and perhaps sense the shades of his own soul? He could not fully understand it.
Expanding his aura, Dylan saw the spiritual power move away from his body and completely cover the room, it was barely visible even to him. For which he praised himself greatly, because without spiritual sense it is impossible to sense the aura. Mages can do this only by understanding how difficult or easy it is for them to control mana.
Trying to do something different, Dylan extended his hand forward and concentrated his mana on it. Gathering and squeezing the mana, a small ball of soft blue color glowed in his hand. Having poured will into it, Dylan was unable to see anything with his spiritual sense. Continuing to pour will into the ball, he still did not notice anything and only when he began to noticeably get tired, he was able to notice something that seemed green to him. Looking closely and continuing to pour more will, he was able to feel it with his spiritual sense, it really was green, with the feeling of himself. It was hard to explain. But basically, when Dylan looked at something with his spiritual sense, he could instinctively understand what it was and what effect it had. Looking at his will, he felt it as himself, or a fragment of him. It was strange to feel himself from the outside.
Shaking his head, Dylan sucked the mana back into the core, watching as his will was sucked in with it. Not paying attention, Dylan continued to examine his body. He could see what seemed to him to be faint, barely visible streams of golden soul energy and the strange shapes and outlines of his spirit. His spirit was weak, or rather, almost non-existent. What he saw seemed to him like invisible air, which was probably just beginning to turn into fog, or light steam. What was offensive was that Dylan couldn't see his soul, it was definitely there and sometimes he thought he was about to feel it, but he never saw it.
Dylan shifted his gaze from his own body to the [Nascent Maple Spirit Sword], unlike anything else, he could clearly sense the part of the spirit inside the sword and feel its calm, peace, and love. Perhaps it was because the spirit was so strong, or perhaps it was because he wanted him to feel it, Dylan didn't know.

Dylan leaned back in his chair and continued to think about where else he had felt some kind of spiritual power. He remembered meeting the damned ent and how he felt his twisted spirit and cursed energy, from them he received a feeling of a twisted hunger devouring life force and killing his native forest. It was disgusting, like looking at a crazy person who ate people with insane pleasure.
Shaking his head, Dylan quickly forgot about this allegory. And continued to think about the skills of the [Lineage] of Mages and Warriors. He sat for several dozen minutes, weighing all the pros and cons before deciding on a very important step.
"Status." Dylan said as several images appeared before his eyes.
Looking at his new skills and the additional stats he had gained from high-level alchemy, Dylan smiled. But that wasn't what he was here for now. After creating the unique skill [Reincarnator's Madness], the system gave him the opportunity to choose another [Special] level skill, and he finally decided what it would be.
Finding the skill shop icon, Dylan opened it and saw exactly what he was looking for first. Selecting it without hesitation, the shop icon disappeared and several notifications appeared.
Congratulations, you have acquired the skill [Insight Great Mage] [Special] [Granted] [Line of Legacies] Lvl 401

Congratulations, you have gained 4 levels in the [Mage of Arcane Will] [Rare][Unique] Lvl 10 > 14 class
When Dylan got the skill he felt something change in him. Opening his eyes, Dylan saw the notifications and smiled wider. He didn't expect to gain a new level at all, especially so much. Not paying much attention to it, Dylan focused on his spirit. It hadn't gotten any bigger and it was still hard to see, but as he continued to look at it, Dylan began to realize that it had gotten better or maybe stronger. Concentrating even more, Dylan felt something special, he felt that his spirit now resembled a real mage. He didn't know how to explain it to himself, but more and more he began to feel that he was a real Mage.
Dylan smiled happily as he reread the skill description and quickly pulled out Vivienne's book on advanced magic. He was eager to master the previously unavailable spells.
