[''OMNI-Mastery'' lv.1

    ''Lv.0'' - you can achieve skill acquisition much easily through knowledge accumulation & understanding.

    ''Lv.1'' -you are able to acquire Mastery skills through skill & knowledge accumulation.

    ''Lv.2'' - ?????????????????? (Incomplete 50%)]

    It was halfway through. Although I didn''t know the way to unlock it yet that was a very good start, especially since ''Lv.2'' seemed to be related to skill combination.

    All the I could hope for was that I would be able to achieve the requirements faster, but there was nothing else I could do.

    The last work I had to do before leaving was refining the last batch of ores the smith had brought back and then I would be able to leave.

    [''Ore Refining'' has reached lv.10]

    [Your skill ''Ore Refining'' lv.10 is absorbed into ''Material Processing'' lv.1]

    [''Material Processing'' has reached lv.2]

    [Another requirement of ''Omni-Mastery'' lv.2 has been met (50% - 65%)]

    [''Material Processing'' lv.2

    Skill type: Passive

    Skill accumulation:

    ''Ore Refining'' Intermediate lv.1, 0.8%.

    *The time required for processing a material decreases by 20%

    *The quality of the refined Material increases by 40%]

    [''Ore Refining'' Intermediate lv.1, 0.8%.

    Skill type: Passive

    *The time required for refining an ore decreases by 90%

    *The quality of the refined ingot increases by 120%]

    ''When it rains it pours indeed!''

    Not only did this skill absorption increase the degree of the unlocking by 15% but it also left me a clue about the requirements being related to skill agglomeration either it was combination or absorption which was a very important lead.

    Maxing skill levels seems to be an important reason of both ways.

    So, I had to work hard on maxing skill levels for two reasons, firstly the development of the skill''s knowledge and secondly, to reach the second level of ''Omni-Mastery'' as it was the only clue of doing so!

    "Honestly, I can''t help but be surprised even though I got to know that you can''t be judged by common sense"

    "Sigh, in any case I consider my request accomplished, this is you reward"

    I received a single coin from the smith but to my surprise it wasn''t a silver one nor a copper one, it was a gold coin!

    "You sure are generous, Mr. Smith"

    "Your work was worth it! Also stop calling me Mr. Smith, I have a name you know"

    "Well, you never told me about it though"

    "Listen well, my name is Drake, don''t you dare forget it!"

    "Ok, I shallcall you teacher Drake from now on"

    "Hah, you dare take yourself as my student because I taught you for 10 days, you must be dreaming"

    "Come on teach, don''t be stingy"

    "Hahahaha"

    We laughed it off for a while, but I soon left after bidding Drake farewell as I only had a month & half left, It was time to head to the forest for the hunting quests and gaining combat experience.
