A quick note before starting This story has gotten a lot of attention like the positive kind, and I find that quite Ironic as this is my SECOND story, but besides that thank you for what you readers have done, which is give me support, it helps me write and makes me feel like what i write isn't that bad so Thank you. Also disclaimer I own nothing except what is probably about to happen in this story Roosterteeth own it. Also a quick question I'm a little lost on how to build Jaune I will make a poll on whether he should be a warrior tank or a mage healer or some combination, so please respond as soon as possible cause the polls will close by the end of May and yes it will affect how the story goes.
So that's all for now thank you for your support and please if you have time leave a review or check out my other story. Also future warning I plan on making Jaune a little or maybe a lot stronger than canon so... If you don't like a powerful Jaune stay anyway :P I kid but if you don't enjoy the story that's cool, and for the guys that do enjoy then please continue to do so, as I try to please.
-EOD out
P.S. That was actually a long note sorry
P.P.S. I actually miscounted the amount of stat points jaune has he should have 5 not 15 again sorry. Also i meant to put that he gains 5 points per lvl not three I will be fixing that so it should be fine when this chapter is uploaded
"Well rested, HP and Stamina fully restored, Status ailments removed." I felt like a thousand bucks after all the aches of yesterday, 'which reminds me I gained stat points through training, can I gain stats any other way? Maybe through books, books... Hmm skill books do they exist as well?' So many questions flooded my head as I woke up but I decided to just find out another time, as I went down to get breakfast i noticed how quiet the house was, then saw a note on the table "Jaune your mother and I are going out, hunter business as usual, Your sisters however got into Atlas and left during the night, I'm sorry Jaune but can you look after the house for a while? It's a big responsibility for a 12 year old but I trust you Jaune, don't forget to train.
Oh yeah! Food is in the fridge and there's some Lien on the counter.
I read the small note before walking over to the kitchen to make myself some breakfast. This happened often in the Arc household but it was the first time I was left completely alone. Cooking leveled up lvl 12 I ate my breakfast of bacon pancakes before heading out towards the library. 'Knowledge is power after all.' I thought pocketing the money on the counter Lien 1000 1500
A short uneventful walk later I was in Vale's public library, the musty old place that combined the new technology with old books. I breathed in the smell of books and yellow pages before walking towards some books on weapons and fighting. I read through some books titled "Weapons for dummies." And "proper fighting 101" before running into a system message "you have picked up the book Tale of Four Kings would you like to learn it? (Will consume book upon use) Yes, No
Skill books were a onetime use resource, and were supposed to be rare so, do i just take this? Wait does the library have more skill books? I kept the skill book next to me as I scanned the shelves slowly touching the covers one by one Through constant observation the skill " Observe" has been learned
Passive skill Observe lvl 1 0% Cooldown N/A Mana cost 0
Sight has always been the key to victory; it provides an advantage by gathering knowledge. Having a keen eye you can see the target's information; it will reveal more information as this skill levels up. "There are poisons that blind you and poisons that open your eyes."
I looked around to see tiny message boxes on everything Carl lvl4 Faunus, Eragon Item: book, Driving Manuel Item: Skill book, Vague Item: Magazine, Janna Lvl5 Human, 'Yes, this is what I need! I collected all the skill books in the library then segregated the useful ones, I was left with eight books "Driving Manual, Tale of Four Kings, White Ghost of the North, Way of the Open hand, Yew Ranger, How to Free run, 5 D's of Dodge ball, Book of blades Vol.1. I whistled softly as I 'observed' what the books did; Driving manual gave me the drive skill it was as obvious as day, Tale of Four Kings was a passive and an active skill that gave me a stat boost, White Ghost of the North gives me the skill Snipe which helped because Yew Ranger gave me Archery as a skill, Way of the Open Hand would give me a bonus when fighting unarmed, How to Free Run made running more efficient and faster giving me more dex and a faster move speed, the dodge ball book was weird it says it would give me a skill that improved my evasion but not the ability to play dodge ball, and finally The Book of Blades, although I already have a skill that improves my strength when i use a sword, I want to experiment on what happens when two skills mix.
Well, I guess I'll just learn them, I picked up the books and hit the Yes button only for a message to appear Required Stats to learn Tale of Four Kings Vit 10 Str 15, How to Free Run Dex 15, 5D's of Dodgeball Dex 15, 'hmm.' I thought to myself 'I do have enough skill points to learn all of these but should I? Mmmm yeah what's there to lose?' I opened my status window and filled in the necessary stats before all the books just disappeared as I felt their knowledge flow within me, at first it was like I knew nothing but after the books disappeared it was like I knew how to do those things my whole life.
Due to prior knowledge of sword play you have developed the Dual wield skill
Through underhanded actions and thievery you have gained the skill "Steal"
Steal has leveled up
Steal has leveled up
"Hey! What did you do with those books?" I heard a librarian call out towards me 'I forgot! These books belong to the library!' I immediately threw my hood over my head before starting to run in the other direction. 'Crap, Crap, Why did I run?' I thought jumping over some tables or sliding under them, I looked for a way out before running into a dead end on the second floor of the library. "Kid! All you need to do is return those books and I promise nothing is going to happen." I saw him slowly walk towards me. "Yeah, I can't really do that so… Bye!" I said before Sprinting past him and jumping out the window. A flashy exit I know but at least no one saw my face right? As I fell from the second floor I saw the face of the girl I ran into the other day her astonished Amber eyes were the last thing I saw before crashing into her. And knocking us both to the ground
