Vampire Summoner's Rebirth: Summoning The Vampire Queen At The Start

-----

I decided that, although thinking for the future was important, stopping my own growth or inhibiting my possibilities of surviving over not wanting to spend Skill Points to save for later was an idiotic idea. It is better to spend what I have now and gain something I can use in the present.

I looked into the Skill Tree with utmost detail, there were many interesting Skills, but most of them were passive skills with passive effects. Some of them were more interesting than others.

There was the [Robust Body: Lv1] Skill that increased the growth of Physical Stats, the [Gifted Magic Apprentice: Lv1] that enhanced the growth of Magic Stats, the [Hawk Eye: Lv1] Skill that allowed me to see from very far away, the [Traps and Snares: Lv1] that could allow the ability to create Traps efficiently, the [Heavy Drinker: Lv1] Skill that doubled the effect of all Potions and Pills, and more.

At the end, I picked an interesting Skill that looked like the most special of the bunch, it was a simple-sounding name, but its effects were more incredible than what it made itself up to be. It simply allowed me to grow faster, and it was sitting there just for me to grab, as if it were a gift made by Lucifer…

[You have exchanged 10 Skill Points and learned the [Hard Worker: Lv1] Skill]

-----

[Hard Worker: Lv1]

A special Skill that only those that endlessly work hard can acquire. Skill Requirements to unlock the Skill to be exchanged for Skill Points has been filled. Learnable only through Skill Points.

Increases Skill Proficiency and Experience Points earned by +20%. The harder you work, the more payback you will receive, but the greater the challenge will become.

-----

It looked interestingly simplistic, it simply enhanced my growth… by a whopping 20%... it wasn't even at Level 10, it could go all the way to level 10, and perhaps enhance the growth of EXP even more.

It is a Skill that rewards the hard worker, so I decided to pick it up. It was also one of the few that could only be learned through Skill Points, and it would have been a total waste to not acquire it.

After that, I decided to move into other things, Eleanora.

She had also ten points of each, so I wanted to see how she could spend them.

Apparently, she wasn't capable of doing anything, she wasn't able to see her Status nor control these points, but only I, through the Grimoire, could do it.

"Hm… Where could I add your Stat Points?" I wondered.

"Perhaps more agility or dexterity? Or greater physical strength." She said.

"Hmmm… Let's divide it." I said.

Lastly, her Skill Points.

Eleanora and seemingly all Spirits had their own incredibly big Skill Trees.

I saw her Skill Tree through the Grimoire and showed it to her, not only there were some new Skills, but there were also some other Skills she used to have in her previous life, which she could "relearn".

Unlike me, Spirits cannot naturally learn new Skills so they either learn them through Leveling, Evolving, Ranking Up, or through the Skill Tree.

So I decided to see what could be of use for us now.

After looking for a while, I found something good.

-----

[Spirit Link: Lv1]

Can only be learned through Skill Points.

Grants the ability to Link the Spirit with the Spirit Master, Spirit and Master can share 10% of their Stats with one another, alongside a single Skill with only 50% of its total power. The Skill can only be selected once. Level up will increase the Skill Limit and Shared Stats.

-----

Wondrous.

This skill was just what I wanted… With this, we could share each other Stats by 10%! And even more, we can pick a single Skill from one another to "Link" it, although it will only showcase 50% of its total power, it is more than enough!

[Eleanora] has spent 10 Stat Points and gained +4 Strength, +3 Agility, and +3 Dexterity]

[Eleanora] has spent 10 Skill Points to learn [Spirit Link: Lv1]!]

"Ohhh! I learned something? And I feel… kind of stronger!" said Eleanora.

"Indeed, it could be said you've grown stronger now… I have relocated your Stat and Skill Points now. You've now learned a Special Skill that will allow us to Link with one another." I said.

"L-Link?" asked Eleanora.

"Yes, simply think about using it and it should happen." I said.

"Okay…"

Eleanora closed her eyes as I held her hand, and suddenly, we felt as if both of our souls touched with one another, linking.

Suddenly, inside of my mind, I saw several floating bubbles.

[Pick a Skill to Link from [Eleanora]

[Charm: Lv1]

[Blood Edge: Lv1]

[Shadow Sneak: Lv1]

In front of me, three bubbles showed up with Skill Icons on them, it seems that I cannot just Link any Skill, only these three Skills were available to Link for me.

It was already possible for Eleanora to use the Charm Skill with me for a small, shared effect, making my words slightly more believable, and well, making me "charismatic", but its effects are stronger when the user itself has the Skill, of course. This is how Eleanora seems so charming to everyone, to an extent, although it does not go as far as being considered Brainwashing, I think.

Blood Edge also allows access to the Bloodwork Arts she uses. This Skill also allows for Blood to be conjured and deal damage with, it can also be made sharp and hurt others, it could be developed in a lot of ways.

And lastly, Shadow Sneak allows me to merge with darkness and shadows for stealth purposes, at more advanced levels, it should allow me to completely dive into darkness as if shadows were like water, swimming through it all with ease to not be detected by enemies.

All three Skills seemed useful on their own unique ways, so I couldn't properly decide which would be the best one yet…

Hmm…
