Training and Experimentations

Apparently swinging Balmung around wasn't actually that hard. The reason why was mostly because Sitonai used a great sword at the end of her Noble Phantasm in Fate/Grand Order. I honestly expected it to be hard because of the weight and my shortness but apparently, it isn't that big of an issue because despite being a servant with E rank strength it is still 10 times stronger than an average human.

Speaking about Sitonai's Noble Phantasm, I really want the bear familiar. It seems like [Optateshke Okimunpe: Howl my Friend, my Power] comes with the rest of Sitonai's equipment like her sword and bow. It seems like I need to have a decent level in [Swordsman], [Archer], and [Tamer] before I could buy the Noble Phantasm.

Maybe I should focus on getting some Magecraft tomes about different spells like [Innate Time Manipulation: Time Alter]. Maybe I should focus on using my [Snow Fairy] ability which in theory is kinda like Ice Generation.

So far my fighting style is mostly an aggressive style which consists of using my speed and swinging a greatsword at maximum force. So far the only problem I can think of is that I would need to buy the skill [Instincts] so I can avoid attacks. I guess I could block attacks by using Balmung as a shield to hide behind to defend against attacks kinda like how Chloe used Fake Nine Lives as a shield.

So far I'm in the process of experimenting with [Snow Fairy]. It seems like I could generate some type of cold aura around a circle of space around my body up to around 50 meters. I could compress the aura to create some ice structures kinda like [Gradation Air] except with ice particles. It seems like I could mold the aura into shapes to generate it but it takes time to build up so I can't shoot out ice spikes out of the ground.

The best use of [Snow Fairy] I could do at the moment is compressing the aura around something at the moment. Its kinda like [Enchantment Magic] and [Reinforcement] on the object except it grants an ice element effect. So every time it hits something, the area of damage would get frozen. It's kinda useful because it weakens the durability of the target so I could break it but it requires lots of mental strength to control the aura to grant the effect.

Thankfully training so far is basically doing some stretches, practicing with my sword, run some laps around the house, and experiment with magecraft. Maybe I should make a homunculus to act as a supporter or maid. I guess I should focus on getting a budget setup before I burn money like the rest of the magus community at the moment. I should prepare to go into the dungeon soon.

I really gotta buy a [Wallet Module] and [Minimap Module] in the future. The minimap would be useful so I don't get lost in the city or the dungeon. The wallet module isn't that important until I get more Valis and get robbed by thieves. Then again the house isn't exactly gonna be easy to break in after I put up some [Bounded Fields]. Maybe I should focus more on the [Minimap Module] so I can have a guide in the dungeon.

Setting up a [Bounded Field] itself wasn't that hard because I just had to put some thread under the ground so it could form the perimeter and anchor it to a bell. It's a shoddy replica of the Emiya Residence bounded field. The bell will ring if there is an intruder with ill intent that enters the bounded field. I gotta study some [Runes] to add sigils to strengthen the [Bounded Field] later.

Maybe I could save up for [Second True Magic: Kaleidoscope] so I could travel the multiverse maybe. There really isn't anything to do until the canon timeline starts and there are other universes I could go check out for fun. Maybe I could steal someone from an alternate universe to join my party.

I think I should get ready to visit the [Guild] tomorrow to register as an adventurer. I probably would have to face a tutorial on the dungeon by the advisors of the guild now that I think about it. Chances are that I will be limited by the advisor from going below the 2nd floor for a month because of my age and appearance. Maybe I could live peacefully by being a crafter with [Item Construction] and just sell magic items. Once I reach level 3 I could just spend my time as an alchemist making materials with alchemy to sell to crafters.

From what I can remember the average income of a party of level 1 is around 25,000 valis a day and that a good meal from the Hostess of Fertility is around ~300 valis while a decent house is around 800,000 valis. So I would need to find out how much I have to pay monthly considering I need to pay for monthly familia taxes to calculate how much money I would have to save each month.

Considering the fact that I'm in a familia alone and its a recently created familia, I shouldn't have to pay too much for my tax due to lack of achievements. Since my familia is at I rank due being recently created so I should have reduced tax.

Speaking about familias, I wonder if I can bestow a Falna considering I am a demigod. Since bestowing a Falna is mostly just using blood to make a blessing. Maybe I could make some homunculi and give them [Falna] to make a decent living. Although now that I think about it, I need to find out how gods give [Falna] so maybe I could use [Structural Analysis] to find out how it works.
