Bell was laying on his bed in his new room, it was already night outside, but he couldn't sleep. When Riveria finally got back with a sheet of blank paper, Loki didn't waste any time and copied his stats on it and show it to him.

He immediately recognized that his skills were the abilities to enhance spells from the overlord anime, and his shocked face was probably mistaken as a shock of awe by Loki as she laughed and slapped his back.

Bell had no idea why he had these skills, but it's no secret that skill in the danmachi universe acted in mysterious ways. Some skills you can get simply by being born into a certain race. Sometimes right from birth or sometime after birth, even before you get falna from a God.

For example, elves are expected to have a skill focused on magic before they hit their teenage years, with or without falna.

Dwarves on the other hand are expected to gain a skill related to strength or blacksmithing when they reach adulthood.

But some skills just pop out of nowhere! imagine eating a spicy dish and then BOOM! You have fire resistance! congratulations.

alright, that was a rather extreme and unlikely example, but who knows? it could be possible.

skill can also be made when someone does a certain action and is in a specific state of mind while doing it, but it can also be acquired by pure desire! Just like how the original Bell got his [Liaris Freese] which increases the speed of Bell's growth as long as his feelings last. Usually, the desire to catch up to the sword princess Aiz and the hope of her finally reciprocate his feelings.

Original Bell was a simp. The current Bell hopes he will not end up the same way.

"What a day." the boy let out a sigh and sat upon his bed. He once again looked at his status sheet. He stared at his magic stat before he shook his head and burned the paper via Lightning. He did it by simply visualizing the runes from {thunderlance} that generates lightning combined with a rune that symbolizes his hand and just...used Mind Mana on the image.

that's all it took, Bell didn't even imagine a magic circle, just runes. The resulting spell was thin lightning dancing between his fingers...it didn't shoot out of his palm like sith lightning, nor did it do any sort of noteworthy damage, to be honest, it just created a cool visual effect.

but burning a thin piece of paper? it was perfect for the job.

If Bell would need to put this spell somewhere, it would most likely be a 0 tier spell.

<the king of death is now offline>

the message made him blink.

'did he just watch me for the entire day?' Bell thought to himself a little crept out by the idea.

A knocking sound brought him back from his thoughts.

"enter," he said and watched as his goddess walked into the room and closed the door behind her.

"how's my white bunny doing?" she sang and walked up to him with a bounce to her step.

"White bunny?" he questioned as he watch her sit beside him.

"ya' have white hair and are cute like a bunny" the goddess replied, her voice still carrying that singing tone. "well, anyways, how do ya' like yer room?" she immediately grimaced once she looked around. "stupid question, it's empty and dull. Want me to buy ya' some things to fill it up?" the goddess offered and rest her head on Bell's shoulder making him go stiff.

Loki snickered silently at that.

'is that a rock with a face drawn on it?' Loki asked herself as she stared at the rock placed on the table in her son's room. Should she be worried?
