Chapter 547 End Of The Ordeal & Learning And Fusing New Skills
"Indeed… But it also shows how much we\'ve grown." Nieve smiled, looking at her own body as it slowly went back to her original form. "Lady Planta, that form you took, was it because of the special armor you had?"
"Something like that." I nodded. "I acquired this armor thanks to your friendship, Nieve, thanks a lot."
"A-Ah… It is nothing, really." Nieve smiled, blushing a bit. She was too cute so I gave her a head pat.
"You\'re such a good, hardworking girl!" I said. "You were the one that helped us the most too."
"Please, don\'t say such things, Lady Planta, everyone helped here." Nieve giggled a bit.
"But you were awesome! You used that same technique you used against the Snake Queen a while back then!" Mark said in excitement. "But it was much stronger…"
"Yeah, girl, you were slaying there." Rita smiled, crossing her arms.
"Also Acorn\'s new magician form, I didn\'t expect that!" Lily said with a giggle, giving him a head pat.
"Hahaha, it is still experimental- Ugh… My head\'s spinning a bit. I\'ll need to rest…" Acorn sighed. "Phew, and we haven\'t even caught the blue and red dragons yet!"
"I know, for now let\'s take a small break." I nodded.
Ding!

"Ah, I guess I could also do that." I nodded while reading the System messages.
Although we handled it just fine, maybe I wouldn\'t had to rely so much on specific strategies if I learn new Skills, or fuse some into even stronger ones, but the MP and Spirit Energy cost might increase even more, so I am quite worried about that…
Well, while we have a small snack with the sandwiches and drinks I had prepared inside of my Inventory, I decided to take a peek at the new Available Skills first.

Huh? They are only three per Race/Class/Subclass? They are way fewer than before. I wonder why? I guess the more we advance, the fewer yet stronger the Skills become. I guess this lack of too many Skills to replace previous ones is a way to incentivize the player to fuse Skills together, huh?
Though, I do wonder if I could fuse these new Skills with old ones. Maybe even stronger versions of them could be generated. Hmm, also their costs has increased to 25 Skill Points each instead of just 5 from before. Are these new Skills much more expensive to Level Up?
I suppose that also makes up for them being fewer… Still, the Skills I haven\'t picked from other classes are still available, though, I\'ve mostly taken anything that interested me by this point from Races and Classes, the only thing left are all those weird Subclass Skills from the All-Trades Subclass.
Alright, let\'s learn the Yggdryad Skills for now at least…
Ding!
[You exchanged 25 Skill Points.]
[You learned the [Yggdrasil\'s Protectors: Lv1] Race Skill.]
[The [Yggdrasil\'s Protectors: Lv1] Skill is reacting with the [Forest\'s Guardian: Lv10 (Max Level)] Skill.]
[To awaken a Superior Skill, you can merge them together.]
[Combine Skills by exchanging 100 Skill Points?]
[Once you accept, the Skill Forge Mini-Game will begin.]
Oh, they can fuse automatically? Interesting… Fine, let\'s do it.
Ding!
[You\'ve exchanged 100 Skill Points!]
[The Skill Forge has opened, two Skills are being merged together!]
FLAAASH!
Suddenly, I found myself within the small Skill Forge once more. Both Skills appeared like two glowing spheres of energy, as I was given a Skill Forging Hammer, while Divine Flames flowed below the forge.
[The Skill Forge Mini-Game has begun!]
[Hit the Skills with the Hammer and combine them together. Make sure to time up the moment you hit the Skills and the moment the flames meld their strength together.]
[If you successfully hit several times in a row, the Skill Fusion will not only succeed, but there\'s a chance the resulting Fusion Skill might be even stronger!]
FLUOOOSH!
The flames started melding both Skills together, while my hammer hit them both rapidly. I had played this before to create that one Skill that boosted all my Stats, so I wasn\'t too unfamiliar with it.
CLANK! CLANK! CLANK!
FLUOOOSH!
I continued playing it with the rhythm, until finally…
FLAAASH!
The two Skills came together as one, floating above my head like a sphere of pure divine light.
Ding!
[SUPER SUCCESS!]
[The Merged Skill has undergone as Special Evolution and has gained new Effects and +10 Bonus Levels!]
[You have created the [Yggdrasil\'s Divine Guardians: Lv10 (Fused Skill)] Skill!]
[The New Fused Skill cannot be fused with other Skills that aren\'t from your next Evolution\'s Skill Tree.]
And like that, I created a new, improved version of Yggdrasil\'s Protectors Skill…
