24 – Recovery and new Feature



Opening his eyes Levi could see what appeared to be the wooden roof of a ship, he could also feel his environment slightly swaying as if the earth was shaking but he knew that was not the case and that it was just the ship sailing, 'I am still on the ship, good that means not a lot of time had passed.’

Slowly getting up he could feel himself significantly weaker. His hands started shaking just from lifting his body weight off of the bed.

'So this is the after effects of using limit breaker, it's worse than I thought, even a child can kill me now, and I barely even used it.’ thought Levi exasperated at his weak state.

‘I guess things will get better after the skill is leveled up, but to do that I have to use it more, which will leave me weakened, sigh, why do I feel like I'm stuck in a loop.’

Laying back down, Levi checked out his notifications to see if he had missed anything and as expected he did and a lot at that.

First of all, he completed the quest he received previously which he had expected and had actually completed another hidden quest alongside it.

[Quest Completed: Fire Nation prison

You along with dozens of your fellow Southern Water tribe members have set on a mission to liberate prisoners from an isolated fire nation prison in the middle of the ocean. 

Objective 1: Liberate the prisoners. 

Objective 2: Eliminate 10 fire nation soldiers by yourself. 

Objective 3: Limit your use of water bending, all other means are allowed] 

Rewards:

Reward 1: Health regeneration 

Reward 2: Stamina regeneration 

Reward 3: energy regeneration ] 

‘Nice, these skills are going to take me a long way, with these my foundation is even stronger.’ thought Levi happily as he looked at his three new skills, he had always wondered when he'd get something like this and he finally did, now he can last even longer in battle and recover faster.

[Health regeneration - (Passive) - Level 1: regenerates 10 health points every hour, the higher the level the more health recovered and the less time needed.]

[Stamina regeneration - (Passive) - Level 1: regenerates 10 Stamina points every hour, the higher the level the more Stamina recovered and the less time needed.]

[Energy regeneration - (Passive) - Level 1: Regenerates energy every hour, the amount of energy recovered differs according to the type of energy (10 Chi point/1H), applies to all kinds of energies, the higher the level the more energy recovered and the less time needed.]

Before Levi could feel elated and check the rest of the notifications a new screen popped up in front of him.

[Ding 

[Condition for an ability upgrade detected]

[Do you wish to merge the abilities of Health regeneration, Stamina regeneration, and Energy regeneration into the superior skill of Rapid recovery? Y/N]

Reading the sudden notification Levi’s eyes couldn't help but sparkle, he was happy now that he fulfilled all the mission requirements or else he was sure he wouldn't have gotten this chance.

‘Yes.’ thought Levi in his mind as he waited for the result.

[0%...25%....75…99%.................]

‘Sigh, always at 99%.’ he thought in helplessness as he remembered some moments from his past life.

[.....100%]

[New skill acquired rapid recovery]

[Rapid recovery - (Passive) - Level 1: Recovery rate of 10% every hour, the higher the level the higher the recovery rate and the less time needed, helps the user recover any and all damage done to him, Stamina, and all energy

Types]

Levi's eyes almost popped out of their sockets as he looked at his new ability, ‘Broken.’ was the only word that came to his mind.

It might not seem like much at first but one thing is different from the three previous abilities, and that was it counted in percentages instead of numbers. That meant that if he had a health of 1 million he would recover 100 thousand in just one hour, and all of that was just at level 1, he was ecstatic to say the least. Deciding to think about it later Levi kept going through the rest of the notifications.

[Hidden quest completed: Fire Nation Princess.

The Fire Nation princess has gone out on her first real mission accompanied by the Fire Nation elite guards and the purpose of it is to stop you. 

Objective 1: Figure out from the clues available to you that reinforcements are coming and warn your allies.

Objective 2: Stop them and rescue your comrades. 

Reward 1: 5 cubic meters of inventory 

Reward 2: Summoning feature, three free summoning cards. 

Titles: saviour, strategist, genius,] 

The rewards for Rapid recovery were already something that made Levi ecstatic but seeing the rewards for the Hidden quest he almost jumped out of bed even in his weakened state.

Inventory?, that was the dream of every novel reader, gamer and every person of culture from his previous world. 

A separate space that can only be accessed by him, where he could store anything he wants in. 

He had always lamented the fact that his system didn't have one but now he could finally enjoy it even if it was only 5 cubic meters it was better than nothing.

'Jackpot, I've just hit the jackpot hehehe.’ thought Levi jumping up and down not even caring for his state. Thankfully nobody seemed to come to check what was going on.

If he had known that he'd receive a reward like this he would have put in even more effort in the mission, not that he could have done more than he had but still.

And a summoning feature, that was also a big one in his book, from the information the system transferred into his brain he knew that it was a feature to summon anything he wanted or in better words, anything the system provided from other worlds and dimensions. 

This also confirmed another question he had always had, can he unlock system features and perks? And apparently yes he can.

'Questions is, is it limited to people and items or can I summon everything I want, and what's the catch, if there is any? Besides the summoning cards that is.’ he questioned, he knew that nothing comes for free and he wanted to know what he'd have to pay after he ran out of the summoning cards.

Deciding to figure this out later he moved to the next reward, the titles.

[Savior: You have a good impression with the people of the southern water tribe and others, they will likely support and help you if you ask for it in the future]

‘That could be very useful, especially during the plot line if I need an extra set of hands.’ he thought as he read the title description.

[Strategist: Enhance strategic thinking and ability]

‘Hm? I am sure this will be useful somehow.’

[Genius: increase the speed at which the user learns new skills and abilities and level them up by 10%]

‘Nice, it's not much but any help counts, especially at higher levels.’ thought Levi as he saw the genius title. One thing he loved about his system was that he didn't have to equip his titles, they would always be active at the same time.

Next was just a collection of all the skills that leveled up and the state points he gained during the fight.

[Close-quarter combat level up +3] 

[Weapon mastery levels +5]

[Limit breaker levels +1]

[Dash levels +4]

[Danger sense Levels +3.]

[strength +2]

[Stamina +3]

[Agility +1]

[Endurance +1]

[Vitality +2]

[Dexterity +1]

[Level up +3] 

[Gained 30 state points]

'Fighting and getting stronger during battles is indeed the way to go.' thought Levi ecstatic as he looked at the rewards he had gotten that would have taken him otherwise months or even more to achieve.

Just when Levi thought that he was done with checking the notifications a new screen popped up in front of him.

[Ding]

 

[System points unlocked] 

[10.000 system points currently in stock]

‘Huh system points? What are they used for?’ asked Levi in his head confused about this new addition.

[For now their only use is for the summoning feature in the future more uses will be unlocked] 

‘And how do I get these system points?.’

[User will receive system points by completing quests]

‘Hmm I see.’ thought Levi as he continued to look through the notifications, there was only one notification left. 

[Due to the skill limit breaker the user had suffered mild negative effects, all states will be halved, all skills and powers levels will be halved.

Duration: 15 days.] 

'Shit, you call that mild? I am basically sitting ducks right here, just waiting to be murdered.’ cursed Levi exasperated, but it should have been expected, and to be fair with a skill like limit breaker this trade was well worth it.

'Sigh, I guess it isn't that bad, I am in a safe environment right now and it'll wear off in half a month, if it comes down to it I'll just use blood bending, or even assign my free state points.’ thought Levi, he still had a few tricks up his sleeve and if anyone thought they could eliminate him while he was weakened they would be in for a big surprise.

‘But, I will need to be more careful when I use it in the future, I either have to eliminate all threats before it wears off or make sure I have allies around to count on.’ thought Levi, making plans for future scenarios.

'The best thing I can do now is just rest.' thought Levi as he played back in bed closing his eyes.

***

It has been three days since Levi got back to the Southern water tribe. 

Everything was the same as before if he ignored the way most of the tribe looked at him now and the countless stream of gifts they kept receiving these last few days. 

Not to mention the annoying people who wanted to meet with him day and night, he had to use the excuse that he was still recovering from the previous battle to send them away. 

But on the bright side, there were only twelve days left for him to recover to full health, and he'll be even stronger than before.

To preoccupy his time during the last twelve days he had been spending extra time bounding with his siblings and mom at home which they seemed to love. 

Most of the time he spent with Sokka sparing and teaching him all that he knew, getting an extra level to his mentor skill while he was at it.

[Mentor +1]

Even though he is significantly weakened now Sokka was still no match for him so it was pretty easy. 

 

Aside from that he spent his days like usual training and leveling up his skills and abilities. 

Although there was a lot of restlessness in the tribe, they had just humiliated the Fire Nation princess and they did not know what consequences they would suffer. 

But after waiting for an extra 10 days above the previous three with nothing happening everybody started to calm down, if the Fire Nation was going to make a move they would have done so already.

Laying on his bed in his room with his eyes closed, with a single candle giving out small lighting by the side, Levi decided to finally try summoning his first character now that he was back in top shape and could better defend himself.

'System open the summoning function.' ordered Levi in his mind as he sat up straight from his bed and stood in his room.

Immediately a search screen appeared in front of him with the amount of system points he had at the top right, and next to them was a card icon with the number three beside it, he guessed it was his three free summoning cards. 

'Alright time to summon my first character.' thought Levi as he proceeded to search for his first character but stopped, staying like that for a while. 

'There are too many freaking options.' he thought, his eyebrow twitching, there were so many options to choose from that he didn't know what to do. If it was just one or two options it would have been easy but now that it was left for him to choose it felt like it was impossible. 

'I should pick someone that can help me the most and to fit with my current situation, for example I can't summon someone who controls fire, but considering I can customize a background for them I guess it can be worked out.’

‘Also, I should only summon one character for now, I am new to this and need to get used to it and see how it works first before bringing in more.’

‘And one other thing, system, will they be loyal to me?.’

[Yes, the summoned characters will be completely loyal to the user but they will still retain their original memories before being summoned and personality, and if the user chooses to assign them a background in this word it will be integrated into their memories.

They will know that the integrated memories are false]. 

[The power of the summoned characters will be limited to the maximum power level of the world they are summoned to if they are too strong] 

‘I see that makes it easy. I won't have to worry about an overpowered character backstabbing me later.’ thought Levi even though the system assured him they'll be loyal.

‘Alright in that case I will be summoning…..
