It has been roughly a week since the first magic classes with Eraldine, I’ve not only reading these books over and over again, but I’ve also helped her and the other people at the Greenhouses Fields, which had already begun to sprout with life as multiple plants began to grow. They were growing incredibly fast, a single week for them to grow up to twenty centiters wasn’t sothing normal at all, and I blad Eraldine’s Magic and her Spirits alongside my own Skills I had acquired [Farming] and the [Little Farr] Title, both boosted plant growth and even had a chance to turn the plant magical.
…Which actually seems to be happening. A few dozen of these plants were slowly turning brighter and sparkling with light. I was actually quite shocked at first when I saw them, but they were growing abnormally faster, and their entire bodies were shining as if they were an Atelier Ga material ready to pick up. However, I had to contain my desire to take them out of the ground and check their qualities, as Eraldine wanted to see how far they could grow.
The plants that turned magical were all the most basic things, such as potatoes, carrots, so onions, and tomato fruits. Thanks to magic, plant growth is accelerated so they probably don’t need to wait for spring to blossom and sumr to give out fruits. Of course, as long as it is not cold enough, potatoes, carrots, and onions, which are tubers, can easily grow and be eaten without having to wait for them to produce seeds or sothing.
According to Eraldine, who was rather good at this as well due to her village doing farming for self-sustenance, veggies that grow underground usually grow in “colonies” of many small clones, as they’re connected to the roots. Usually you’ll cut down the bigger ones to eat and leave the smaller ones back to the ground so they can continue growing and at the sa ti produce more offshoots.
That said, I’ve also been studying diligently. I’ve been reading several books concentrated for a while, not only those of magic but I also put the ti and effort to read other things, researching the world, its various continents, the people that lives here, and more. Although this information seems outdated, it gave a general feeling of things that I lacked before. Alongside that, of course, I also studied magic circles. Thanks to Eraldine’s recomndations, I began morizing the magic circles with surprisingly good results. Thanks to the [Parallel Mind] Skill I had, I suddenly realized I had kind of an amazing photographic mory.
Although I cannot completely understand or comprehend complicated magic right away, if I morize how the things look and the text that explains them, I can always recall it inside of my mind, trying to figure out this advanced math-like magical formula. But god, I was bad at math. I’ve been trying my best and even after a week, there are no results at all, but I think that soon enough, I might grasp True Magic.
anwhile, I’ve been trying to figure out the creation of new Skills as the System had told , my priority was Alchemy, but Eraldine had been busy dealing with teaching magic for the entire week, and because she’s not a tireless undead or sothing, after she was done she would have dinner and then go to sleep at our bed. I couldn’t really bring myself to force her to help learn the Skill, so I decided to wait for her.
But ultimately, as I spent another night reading books and trying to grasp sothing…
Ding!
[You have acquired the [Bookworm: Lv1] Title Skill]
“Eh?! What’s with this stupid Title? And why did it took so long?” I wondered.
[So Skills have better affinities than others]
“But didn’t you said I could learn Skills way easier now?”
[Indeed, this is a Skill you would had never been able to learn, your affinity with books and reading is just terrible]
“…”
That really broke my heart.
The System is really ruthless sotis, damn bastard.
Also this is just another Title that is making fun of , but even those got so interesting effects, so let’s see this one…

[Bookworm: Lv1]
A Title Skill acquired by soone that has read so many books that they don’t know anything else in life than reading and simply thinking about books and staying inside a library. Aside from becoming a weirdo, it increases your Reading Comprehension of any Book you’re reading by 50% (With an additional 10% with each Title Skill Level). You might also develop the ability to write, maybe.

“Eh?! Isn’t this just really making fun of ?! System, did you wrote the description?”
[…]
“Silence, huh?! Bastard… You’re getting really cocky lately!”
[…]
“Hah~ It’s hopeless to argue with him.” I sighed, looking back at the Title Skill.
Co to think of it, it is not bad at all. 50% Reading Comprehension is an insane boost. It was probably like 1% before seeing how slow I am, but now that I got an insane 51%, things might change for the better now! Let’s continue reading books! I might even write my own book about being a Ghost to the masses.
…Well, yeah, no. I better not do that.
I looked into the window and it was still dark, it might be around 4 AM right now… I better go back to reading. A benefit of being a ghost is that as long as I don’t use too much Mana, I can keep myself awake all I want without feeling tired or sleepy.
As the hours went by and I saw Eraldine moving around my bed with Partner who usually rolled over the bed like tens of tis every night, I continued reading.
For so tis, I looked back at them and saw Lucifer sleeping on his own smaller bed. He had requested a personal bed for himself to be put at the side of mine, as he didn’t wanted to sleep with the other girls. I guess he just wants his own space.
When it was already 10 AM, I closed the book I was reading and suddenly felt sothing.
It was like… a spark!
