"So what are we going to read?"Alice asked us as we sit on the corner.

"I think I would look up for something related to skills that I have, for now, So basic soul pet and some sound related title I guess, What about you guys?" I said while browsing the categories in my comlink

"Hmmmmmm, I don't really know what titles are related to my skills. Can you give me suggestions? It's really weird to think that I would fight a monster with a book. I mean what should I do, bash the enemy with the book? Doesn't seems to be helpful." Kana said grumbling

"You have your healing skill, right? Why don't you read about basic healing or something like that? Why read basic soul pet, Albert? I thought what you have is soul puppet and not a pet."

James suggest to Kana

"I'm looking at it but I can't see a basic healing title. There are some basic elemental heal, basic natural heal, and some more specific like water element heal, light element heal. Which one should I choose?"

"It's a long story but the summary is soul pet and my puppet skill have some kind of correlation and as my puppet skill is kinda a rare skill so I'll just take what I can have at the moment. Choose natural heal I guess as you don't have any element related skill at the moment"

"Really there's no title about your puppet skill? They usually have at least a title even if it's a rare skill. As for you, I suggest this, this, this, and this" Anna said while picking natural healing, basic mana manipulation, basic inscription, basic body manipulation, on Kana comlink

"Oh, you have to read some basic title like mana manipulation and body manipulation. It would help you a lot on with the lesson later." Anna added as she picks some title from her own comlink.

"Anna sis help me pick a title, PLEASEEE!!! Alice jump on Anna bandwagon after she saw Anna picks titles for Kana to read

"Sorry I can't help you with that, sweetie. I only can help with basic stuff but you have 3 rare skill and I'm afraid if I suggest the wrong title it would be a disaster."Anna said to Alice

"My dad said that puppet related skill title has not been completed yet. Something about mutations causing it hard to draw a conclusion. I'll take on that suggestion, Anna. You have to have strong foundations to build a tall building." I said while choosing extra titles to read from my comlink

"I don't think basic inscription and basic mana manipulation fit me. Because of my traits, I don't have any mana so why should I read that?"Kana doubt her sister selection as she browses through her comlink

"Even though you don't have mana having knowledge about basic mana manipulation could still be useful. Looking at your traits carefully I remember there's a point where it said using your HP as your Mana or something like that."

"So although you don't have any mana it would be still helpful to read that. Body manipulation would help you a lot tough as HP and body are basically having an inseparable relationship. As for basic inscription, I kinda agree with you, Kana." I say putting forward my opinions.

"What Albert said and as for inscriptions, it's one of the ways evolver who have book mastery fight. You can inscribe your books to have some effects that would help you fight. Books, Orb, Wand, and Staff these are the most common weapon for evolver who uses magic. Each of these weapons has their own advantages but one thing they have in commons is they help you use your arts."

"Whoaaa, what is art? that's new I guess we're in luck to have a private instructor." James leaves his comlink and starts bugging Kana for an explanation.

"As you already know the skill that you have doesn't give you the instant magical ability to do something. For example, if you have fire manipulation skill it doesn't mean you can instantly control the fire from your stove. They gave you knowledge on how to do it and you have to cast and art to be able to control it. So arts is like the implementation of your skill. You'll learn this in Mr. Hubert class."

Kana start reading her comlink intensely after she is content with the reasons her sister gave her. After I'm done choosing my titles to read I start helping Alice and James choosing their title to read. I gave them both most of the basic stuff that Anna suggest plus a couple of titles that fit them.

I gave Alice basic earth element and basic close quarter combat as for James he's really lucky as summon skeleton is one of the most common summoning skill so they have a bunch of related titles about that one specific skill.

I recommend him reading some basic summoning, basic skeleton summoning, and basic necromancy. It's hard to find him some shield related titles as most shield related titles have some kind of combination with others weapon but in the end, he chooses basic blocking titles to add up to his reading list.

It still amazed me how a muscle fool like him can stand reading that many titles and not overheating his brain. I mean I know that his muscle is only a facade and he's really just another geek like me who happen to have a father whose is an ex-athlete.

"Why basic earth element? Did you know something about her skill? Be careful not to give her a wrong advice it can cause her a lot in the long run. If you're not sure better to let her figure things out herself" Anna ask me worriedly when she saw I pick basic earth elements in Alice comlink

"My father told me yesterday that her skills have a very close relationship with earth elements so reading the basic earth elements could raise her comprehensions. He told me to make sure she read that."

"Oh, it was your father. Ok then, I guess he figures something about that skill. Why earth elements tough?" Anna said a little calmer than before after I said it was my father and not my decisions.

"Because of her skill rarity, we have absolutely no data whatsoever about her skill so we can only draw some conclusions from the skill name. But he said it was good enough as all the data we have at the moment started from there."

"Emerald, Amethyst, Ruby. From her skill name we got the only thing they have in common is precious stones. According to the data so far, precious stone and mineral are parts of the earth elements. And to comprehends linked skill you have to figure the connections between them and consider them as 1 skill rather than multiple. So he said we should start from the connections which is earth elements."

"Right, almost forgot that Kana told me Alice pick 1 skill and got 3 as a result. She really is a lucky girl" Anna said looking towards Alice

"If you look at it from games perspective isn't ruby usually tied to fire elements? I thought this evolver project follow RPG logic."I realized James is listening to us all this time.

"I also told that to my father yesterday, it's a long story but the summary is that she has to figure it out by herself. There's a possibility of her skills contains more than 1 elements but 1 thing for sure earth is one of them. So we start from what we know and modify it later time after we know ourselves better."

After I finish explaining about Alice situations to Anna and James I start to read from my comlink. I try to finish it as soon as I can. I plan to read titles that Alice, James, and Kana have so I can help them comprehends their skill but Anna discouraged me to do so.

She said it does not help much to do so because every person have a different perspective and if they follow me blindly they would hit a bottleneck somewhere and can't raise their skill ever again.

That is also the reason why most of the things in the library are basic knowledge and not full on lessons.
