These were Mikoto's and Haruhime's updated Statuses.

Their abilities had improved significantly, about as much as Lilly's had. In particular, Haruhime's Magic growth had been amazing—magic was significantly harder to improve than the more basic abilities like strength or agility—and considering that her spells had very long chants in order to activate them and therefore couldn't be used in rapid succession, this latest achievement was more than noteworthy.

And along with that, she had even manifested a skill.

Her new skill was similar to ones cooperatively developed by the elves across their entire race, and there was no question it would be extremely valuable to a sorcerer like Haruhime. Incidentally, among all the magic-related skills, the ones that affected efficiency of Mind usage were among the most prized and powerful, despite their less flashy nature.

Although Mikoto hadn't gained any new magic or skills, Hestia had a peculiar explanation for why.

"It seemed like you could've developed a pretty crazy skill, but it seemed scary, so I held off. Pretty sure it was one of those self-destruction types."
