Mike seems to have all of his plans impeded by Status Affects all the damn time, its pretty hilarious actually XD
Mike, probably thanks to his decent VIT Score and having gone to bed really early the day before, was able to get up pretty early, about thirty minutes before he needed to start heading for school. It was thanks to this that he not only got a decent night's sleep, but was also able to have some time in the morning to probably go for a quick round of grinding Zombies in the Pseudospace.

Ten zombies were spawned, ten zombies were defeated in about a minute. These zombies seemed to put up a decent fight and they were pretty tough, even with Mike's newest Skill. Still, they didn't put up too much of a challenge for Mike, despite them outnumbering him ten to one, literally. In fact, if anything it was their numbers and slight bit of toughness that made them a challenge more than anything. Still, a nice 20 EXP was gained. Mike still had a good bit of MP left. He would have time for one more session of grinding.

The twelve zombies that showed up the second time around put up a much better fight. Perhaps Mike was just off his a-game that time, but they got some pretty nasty bites into him and took away a good chunk of HP. He even leveled up Hardiness from this a couple times, implying that he dodged the bullet on getting a bad status, that was, until he actually got it. It seemed to be a pretty nasty effect, which he had time to check just after the fight.

-25% Strength, Dex, and Vit until cured, and it just made him feel sick. Called Undeath Plague. A nasty sickness that makes one's body as if it were the undead, slowly draining away their physical abilities until they could no longer function, or so said the info on Mike's status window. Fortunately Mike would heal it when he went to bed and it would not kill him, just being a temporary nasty affect for now. Unfortunately he got the status after he had leveled up during the fight, so wondering if a Level Up would cure it was out of the question for now, as was anymore fighting as the disease status made him feel just very, very sluggish.

Unfortunately in the medicine cabinet, there was no medicine to cure diseases like this, despite having been sick before. Apparently there was medicine that cured the Sick Status or other such things, but this was apparently a Plague Status, and nothing in Mike's medicine cabinet cured plague. Luckily a level in Observe was gained from checking the medicines, something Mike's basic intelligence told him to do.
Still well enough?: 1 (Critical)
Mike still felt that, despite this disease, he could power through the school day. Kendo club, maybe. School? Definitely. In fact, he managed to stay awake despite the sluggish, tired feeling he had throughout the day.
Mike Learning: 36 - 15 Knowledge = 21
A few windows appeared at the end of the school day.









Kendo Club, on the other hand, was gonna be somewhat difficult. Mike met the members of the club, who thought that he didn't look so good. His parents had thought the same, but Mike was able to seem well enough to go to school anyway. Keiichi, on the other hand, pulled Mike aside.

"Its not good to push oneself too hard when sick... you should go home and get some rest... I can tell that is no natural disease you have either. While it is not contagious" which is something the info in the status window mentioned as otherwise going to school would have been a no go since that would probably go against the Interference Law "you should still probably go home anyway." As much as Keiichi admired Mike's spirit he still thought that pushing oneself with that kind of disease wasn't good training.So essentially Mike would have no choice, as disobeying Keiichi's orders was probably not the best of plans, so going home was probably his only choice meaning he didn't get to participate in the Kendo Club that day.

Luckily, while it may have impeded him physically, mentally and spiritually Mike was still fine. So after dinner using Meditation and Spirit Channel were not too much of a problem for him. Getting an hour each of Meditation and Spirit Channeling leveled them up a good bit, Spirit Channeling providing some buffs once it got to Level 5, Meditation only helping him recover MP much more quickly as it leveled up more. All in all though, an hour each was his limit as even with Meditation's ability to recover fatigue, the disease was also making it harder for him to recover fatigue through basic relaxation.

Seeing as it was pretty late after Kendo club now, about 8 PM or so, Mike would have been best off turning in for the night and sleeping in a little more this time around to get rid of this terrible Status Affect.

Zandaka, being turned on and off throughout the day since it had a high MP Cost, would also have been leveled up a bit more after the fight. It seemed to level alot more slowly than his other Skills, but it still got some good leveling nonetheless.
Also, changed Zandaka a bit. Kinda nerfed it (it was way to OP for its low level). It'll become much stronger once you level it, and its affect is still pretty much the same (just less). Its MP Cost is also higher, but the MP costs of Skills also decrease as you level them (for high MP cost skills anyway).

so Mike will still be badass OP, just not unjustified OP XD

Anyway, time to get the results of Mike's stuff.
So he'll get in a quick session of Zombie Grinding after getting up and getting ready for school. After that, goes to school, has Kendo Club, then goes home to grind Meditate and Spirit Channel. You don't have to post in the IC, ill just post the results of your actions.
So what time will he be getting up every day o.o

(I think school starts at 8 AM, so he would have to get up really, really early, which isn't healthy, especially since he had to go to bed the night before thanks to an awful ailment)

I mean, it could work if he got up at 6 AM or so. I guess I could allow it for this one day though since he did go to bed much earlier than normal (I think around 7 PM or so) He could get off a session or two of Zombie Grinding (depending upon how well he does.
Also, posted for moving on to the next day.
Mike has school.

You can either PM me or just put it out here. You all have two choices.

Go day by day for how filler days work (link to that on the front page), like tell me what you want to do for a day, ill post the results, then for the next day, ill post the results, and so on and so forth. This option is slower, but lets you decide on each stage of grinding.

Or just tell me what you want to do over the course of the next four and a half days (cause Sunday Night is when the quest deadline is) and ill just give an overview of how you do for the entire week. This option is faster, but just lumps all of your grinding into one thing, you don't really get to decide on much (although you could try to make new skills during all of this).

Of course, also take into account whether your character goes to school or has special events (like Silas' Squash tournament and I know Lucian has classes) as well. I think Sasha is the only one whose schedule is completely open (ren is skipping school, which his uncle is not gonna like XD)
Ren gave a nod as he listened to Lucian, before hearing Lucian's last bit of advice as he seemed to be worried about Ren. Why was he so worried, it seemed strange, but it wasn't a bad thing. "Don't worry. If possession is a Mental status then we should be immune to it thanks to the Gamer's Mind Skill... " That was one of the many benefits of their their power. They couldn't get terrified or panicked about anything thanks to that Skill, which was nice as it meant that no matter the situation, they could always stay calm, cool, and collected, which was great for negotiating situations. "Still, thanks for the warning anyway, ill be sure to be careful."

Ren had grown to somewhat trust Lucian a bit more. Of course, there was still that distance there that he kept for everyone, but it wasn't 'as there' as much between him and Lucian thanks to more recent events. Kinda like leveling up a Social Link in Persona one could guess, and it was something that Ren had noticed in the more recent time they had spent together, but still, there was always going to be a wall that would always be there between him and everyone else of the 3D world, no matter what.

Eventually after a bit more small talk, Ren actually contributing a bit here and there now unlike before, they arrived at Ren's house, the boy looking up at Lucian and giving a very small, brief, and momentary smile that one would have had to pay close attention for or miss it, this gesture making Ren's head turn away slightly. "Thanks for walking me home again..." After that, Ren went back inside.

First, Ren made dinner, the Craft Skill helping again. He honestly had no idea what to do with this Skill since he didn't know how to make anything useful. Still, it was nice to have, and perhaps once he had more time he could figure something out. For now, it was one of those skills that he never used. It was late, around 9:00 PM, a little too late to try anything new, so he decided to just first learn the Demonology Skill Book, then spend the next few hours reading that book he got from the auction for free as a free gift from the Dealer. After that, while keeping Undine summoned, he began to read from the Tips and Tricks book in his inventory about water magic.
Water Magic Book Reading (Ritual Water Magic): 4 (Critical)
A few hours of reading until midnight and he was already halfway done with the book. It was really easy to understand and the information just flew off the pages and into Ren's mind. His high Int was really something else, it going up again by +1 when Summon Elemental got to Level 10 that night, giving him a few extra things. This power was really incredible. After sticking his new Talent Point from reaching 36 Int into Demonology and putting the water magic book away, he decided to hit the hay for tonight, since he wanted to get up early for some solo grinding. Sure Saito's place was nice, but he had some things he wanted to try and he couldn't rely on Saito all of the time. He was sure that if he just stayed in his own back yard for training, then he couldn't be touched by Hunters.
The rest of the night for everyone else, unless they planned to do something, went uneventful and soon enough it would be the next morning. With it being Wednesday and Sunday being the deadline for the Quest, they had alot of time for training, but also not a whole lot of time at all.
So Bio still has Talent Points for Silas to apply (unless he's saving them for who knows what XD)

And Sasha still has her one level up to apply.
Who knows, all of those things could happen possibly ;3
