Chapter 15 Part A

"I hope you guys can hurry we can't be standing still in one place too long. Sensei and Rina are resting close by getting ready for us to move again," Yumi said finally approaching our group in the hidden overlook. It had taken her a few minutes to figure out where we'd disappeared to.

I'm thankful she's helping me look out for Sensei and Rina. And it takes some pressure off me.

BECAUSE, both Asakura and Rina are both following me around and looking to me to solve everything. In a way its ego boosting because I can feel their trust and comradery. But at the same time its pressure and stress to make sure I'm ahead of the game. Mostly that works. But Yumi is acting like a pressure valve release sometimes.

"This hideaway spot is cool though, and it looks like you can see over the river well without being spotted under the heavy cover," she added as she looked over it and all the foliage that had enclosed tightly around it. After looking at it, she was right. It was the perfect hidey hole type spot.

"Yeah, it's a cool spot as long as people stay quiet while looking from it," Akimoto looked pleased since he'd found it of course. He was inspecting it around and looking over it, looking proud of himself.

But then he saw all the blue screens all going up from people discovering abilities and unlocking status screens in the other students that came with us, "Eh! So many!"

"So does this mean everyone's evolving? Or what's the appropriate term anyway?" I asked.

"Could be. The more we evolve the better?" Yumi guessed.

"I would have said this is just like a game except more than two thirds of our schoolmates just died," some random girl said near us.

Someone signaled Raya to come over and she and Yuta began reading off the screens for people. They started with Akimoto, "Due to scouting an enemy achievement, forestry skill navigation, and hidden observation you have unlocked the Ranger job class, with its accompanying skill tree and minor nature affinity limited element."

"Eh? Ranger job, is that good?" Akimoto wondered, with his face screwed up. He was worried if he'd got something bad, or below average it seemed.

"Wow ranger jobs? I'm surprised, but it makes sense. We'd need a survival in the wilderness job about now," I said.

"Doesn't sound that special to me, I wanted fire mage after all," some kid said, but nobody listened to him. After all fire mage was so impractical. Would you sneeze fire and burn your house down?

Raya shrugged, "I think it's good. It says..." her finger followed the hieroglyphics, "access to tracking, nature, survival, woods lore, wild plant and animal identification, hiding and camouflage, scouting, range combat techniques, and forager technique unlocked as potential skills. Higher tier and advanced skills will be unlocked as progression justifies knowledge of their existence beyond the basic skill tree."

"Does that mean he gets those skills already? Or just gets the ability to unlock them?" I asked.

"He still has to unlock them. But it gives him bonuses to get them quickly and lets him use the automation magic to use them. But one of those skills probably the easiest one he'll get for free," Raya said.
