After enjoying his appearance in the mirror for a while, Austin wore his clothes again and sat down on the couch.
" Now, it's time to allocate the Skills Points!" Austin smiled, looking at the Skills panel.
" Oh, yeah! I almost forgot, " Austin smiled " I need to check the Database to learn how to upgrade my Skills and how many Skills Points are necessary to do so!"
" I also need to read all the Skills descriptions to understand them more before upgrading them!" Austin entered his interface and started searching the Database.

----------------------------------------
" Well, That was a lot of information. My head almost exploded," Austin massaged his forehead " But I think it's necessary to understand the System and Skills correctly, which will help me use them later on in the fights more precisely and effectively."
" As for the last one, the Trait 'Control Emotion' " Austin narrowed his eyes " If I remember correctly, this Trait was with me from the first day I came to this world."
A case of literary theft: this tale is not rightfully on Amazon; if you see it, report the violation.
Austin thought for a moment, " I guess it has something to do with the training I received in the military about how to control my emotions and always keep them in check, especially in difficult situations during the missions."
" Now, since I have already finished reading the Skills descriptions, there's only one problem left which is how many Skills Points are needed to level up the Skills." Austin looked at his Interface " Let's start with my Devil fruit."
Austin rechecked the Database and found his answer.
----------------------------------------
How to allocate the Skills Points :
1 - The Devil Fruit :
Each Devil Fruit has three Levels which are:
* Proficiency ( Level 1 )
* Awakening ( Level 2 ) ( Locked, Minimum level 100 )
* Ultimate Form ( Level 3 ) ( Locked, Minimum Level unknown )
Each level of the Devil Fruit has a degree of Mastery that varies between 0% and 100%. As for the allocation of the Skills Points, it goes like this :
* 0% - 10% ---> 1 Skill Point
* 10% - 20% ---> 2 Skills Points
* 20% - 30% ---> 3 Skills Points
* 30% - 40% ---> 4 Skills Points
* 40% - 50% ---> 5 Skills Points
* 50% - 60% ---> 6 Skills Points
* 60% - 70% ---> 7 Skills Points
* 70% - 80% ---> 8 Skills Points
* 80% - 90% ---> 9 Skills Points
* 90% - 100% ---> 10 Skills Points
As For the Skills Points Needed for breaking through the Next Level:
* Level 1 - Level 2 ---> 100 Skills Points
* Level 2 - Level 3 --->100 Skills Points
----------------------------------------
" Hmmm! I see," Austin frowned and started doing some calculation," which means I need 55 Skills Points to proceed from 0% to 100% ( 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5 + 6 + 7 + 8 + 9+ 10), and then I will be at the maximum Mastery of Level 1."
" And if I want to proceed further and unlock the next level, which is level 2, I will need another 100 Skills Points, and next, I will have to repeat the same thing again if I want to upgrade it more," Austin scratched his head in frustration.
[ Lvl 1 ( Proficiency) : 0% to 100% --> 55 Skills Points
Unlock Lvl 2 --> 100 Skills Points
Lvl 2 ( Awakening ) : 0% to 100% --> 55 Skills Points
Unlock Lvl 3 --> 100 Skills Points
Lvl 3 ( Ultimate Form ) : 0% to 100% --> 55 Skills Points. ]
" Well, that's a lot of skills Points, especially since it's rare to get them." Austin shook his head " In addition, I have other skills, so I can't concentrate on my Devil fruit alone. I need to balance my Skills. "
" Tsk! That's tough," Austin sighed " Hell, I think even awakening the fruit now will only be feasible in the Grand Line, where there are a lot of enemies, which means a lot of rewards " Austin shook his head " Alright, let's see what's left."
Austin continued with the rest of the Database and moved to the other Skills.
----------------------------------------

----------------------------------------
" Alright, another ton of Skills Points needed, " Austin cursed in his mind " I don't even know where to get all these f***ing thousands of Skills Points?! "
[ Lvl 1 ( Amateur ) : 0% to 100% --> 5 Skills Points
Unlock Lvl 2 --> 10 Skills Points
Lvl 2 ( Intermediate ) : 0% to 100% --> 10 Skills Points
Unlock Lvl 3 --> 20 Skills Points
Lvl 3 ( Expert ) : 0% to 100% --> 15 Skills Points.

Unlock Lvl 5 --> 40 Skills Points
Lvl 5 ( Grandmaster ) : 0% to 100% --> 25 Skills Points. ]
Austin sighed and looked up at the room ceiling " I guess it's a long way to go."
" Alright, what's left." Austin returns to the screen again
----------------------------------------
How to allocate the Skills Points :
3 - Skills with one level:
This type of Skill consists of only one level, which has a degree of Mastery that varies between 0% and 100%. As for the allocation of the Skills Points, it goes like this :
Level 1 ---> From 0% to 100% ---> 10 Skills Points
----------------------------------------
" These are the cheapest ones so far!" Austin smiled " All I need is 10 Skills Points to upgrade them from 0 to Max."
Austin checked his Skills list " Ho! I have 7 skills in this category which are basically the 'Rakushiki' Skills."
Austin glanced at 'Detect' in his list " As for 'Detect', it's already at Max from the beginning since it's just an information Skill."
Austin rechecked the Database once more but didn't find anything new.
" Finally, I finished everything I needed to know about My skills and how to allocate my Skills Points " Austin smiled and decided to start thinking about how to distribute his Skills Points.
" Now, with the Skills points, I will add 10 Skills Points to my devil fruit, 5 Skills Points in both 'Melee Combat Art '& 'Sword Art', 25 Skills Points in my new Unique Skill 'All For One', and lastly, 1 Skill Point in each one of 'Soru' ( Shave ) & 'Geppo' ( Moon Walk ) & 'Tekkai' ( Iron Body ) & 'Shigan' ( Finger Pistole ) & 'Rankyaku' ( Tempest Kick )." Austin started assigning his Skills Points.
" Alright! I finished all my 50 Skills Points." Austin smiled " Let's see what it looks like now."

----------------------------------------
When Austin finished allocating the available Skills Points, his head received a lot of information about fighting and using his skills. He felt he understood his skills more now, especially his Devil fruit.
" Hoh! Not bad, now my Devil fruit went from 0% to 40%, but it's still in Level 1," Austin examined the other Skills " the 5 skills from the 'Rokushiki' tree went from 0% to 10% too, and the 'Melee Combat Art' & 'Sword Art' went from 0% to 100% but still in First Level, and lastly My Unique Skill went from Level 1 ( 0%) to Level 2 ( 100%)."
Austin noticed something " New techniques are appearing in my head due to upgrading my Devil Fruit! "
Austin checked the Database to see their descriptions.
----------------------------------------
1 - Kaze Kaze no Mi ( Wind-Wind Fruit )

* Wind Blade: Create a crescent-shaped wind blade to cut the opponent or the general target in half.

----------------------------------------
" Finally, I finished everything " Austin grinned as he remembered something " Now I think I'm gonna test my new Unique Skill!"
