Torrent stared out at the lingering ice effects on the water before she spun in a circle excitedly.  Her celebration was interrupted by the sudden ding and following system message, which caused her to let out a sound of glee.

[color=3684a0]"System, put two points into Blunt Resistance and the last three into Poison Glob, please and thank you!"[/color] she said breathlessly.  This was great!  Level nine and -

A thought rammed its way into her mind at the thought of numbers.  She'd evolved at level five, right?  What if she evolved again at level ten?  Didn't the system say something before about evolutions down the line?

[color=3684a0]"System, please display the next evolution level.  And evolution options?"[/color] she asked tentatively.  She'd never tried to use the system before, but it responded when she allocated skill points.  So didn't that mean that it could take orders?  Or something like that?

What even was this System thing anyways, now that she thought about it?  It really was weird, she hadn't had a thing in her head before she died the first time.

Shaking herself as Oberon called out to her, Torrent walked over happily and looked at the thing he had created.  He wanted her to hit it?  So, maybe some kind of portable shield?  Whatever.  She tilted her head as she considered what skill would work best for this, and chose to not use a breath attack.  Even the ones that were like a stream would be too dangerous.

[color=3684a0]"Okay, I'm going to use a Glob since I just got it to a new level with that level up.  Please make sure to not let it hit you..."[/color] she said hesitantly.  Moving so that she would fire at an angle, she didn't want to risk the Glob going right through the thing and hitting Oberon (she remembered what a level one version of it had done to a Pixie back in the cave), before she spat out a level 2 Glob at the mana shield.

Out of curiosity, she went ahead and use her magic analysis on the shield before the Glob left her mouth.

As she sat there and watched the results, she thought about what she wanted to learn next.  Her thoughts were on the fact that she'd seen Oberon develop some interesting things between this shield thing and that air thing a moment ago.  She really should have analyzed that.

[color=3684a0]"Hey, Obe?  I've been doing all these element breath things because it seems useful and it's fun and I was just thinking...Well, I've got water and fog and fire and ice and a mixed poison and fire and air and....What if I could make light but from my mouth?  It sounds cool, but I don't know where to start with that.  I don't know what Light feels like, exactly, so I don't know how to change the energy.  Would you be willing to help?  I'd teach you something I know in return if you wanted!  Just like the training day!"[/color] Her voice lifted slowly as she talked as her excitement started filling over again.
