Thea Magna, there it was. This was the first time she had a last name, in her last life, although she was successful and brilliant, her way of showing emotions kept her from being adopted and as a result never got a last name.
This however wasn't the only thing that changed, she now had a new title, 13 mana instead of 14 and on the second window her skills had a tab next to them. The title was self-explanatory after inspecting her mother's titles, she had a guess for the mana but the tabs next to her skills was what she was clueless about.
Worried she would lose her skills she spent days choosing and upgrading, she inspected the [Partially Locked] tab.
[Partially Locked Passive Skills: Some skills that might bring danger to the user and mother holding the user have been temporarily locked. The skills will be unlocked when the user is born. All passive skills are currently disabled, unlocked skills can be activated should the user wish.]
[Partially Locked Active Skills: All beings on Terah go through an enlightenment when they become an adult. During enlightenment they receive an active skill they gain affinity to. Impossible to enlighten to a special active skill. User has more restrictions due to higher ranking skill level.]
For her mana, Thea guessed it was because of her [Language Talent], [Inventory], [Map], [Inspect] and [Magic Circuit Bones] which removed about 4.1% of her maximum mana. Although that was about 0.6 mana, her status probably didn't go into decimal values.
Thea was then curious as to which skills were locked so she opened her second window:
[Passive Skills]
[Cleaning (LVL.MAX)] [Deactivated]
[Poison Resistance (LVL.MAX)] [Deactivated]
[Greater Vitality (LVL. MAX)] [Deactivated]
[Sexual Talent (LVL. MAX)] [Deactivated]
[Meditation Talent (LVL. MAX)] [Deactivated] L𝒂test nov𝒆ls on n𝒐velbi𝒏(.)co𝒎
[Weapon Talent (LVL. MAX)] [Deactivated]
[Death Aura (LVL. MAX)] [Locked]
[Hair Control (LVL. MAX)] [Deactivated]
[Status Screen (LVL. MAX)] [Activated]
[Mana Regeneration(LVL.MAX)] [Deactivated]
[Active Skills]
[Mana Zone (LVL.MAX)] [Locked]
[Metallurgy (LVL.MAX)] [Locked]
[Hair & Tail Strike (LVL.MAX)] [Locked]
[Language Talent (LVL.MAX)] [Partially Locked: User will be able to understand the language, but not read, write or speak it. |Will be fully unlocked at 1 year old.|]
[Enchantment Talent (LVL.MAX)]
[Inventory (LVL.MAX)]
[Map (LVL.MAX)]
[Inspect (LVL.MAX)]
[Poison Creation (LVL.MAX)] [Locked]
[Rift Magic (LVL.MAX)] [Locked]
While it did seem logical why some skills were locked, and it would be weird if a baby could speak normally, it still made her sad to see skills she worked a long time at choosing locked till she would be 18. This however didn't stop her from learning other magic.
She activated all her passive skills and closed her tabs, Thea estimated she had 13 weeks left until she was born so she did the only thing she could, she had prepared for situations where she wouldn't be able to do anything for longer periods of time. Meditating.
Already relaxed with the soothing warm water, with no distractions around her she started meditating.
Unknown to Thea though, her [Mana Regeneration] together with her [Goddesses Delicate Skin] were working overtime. Normally, they would only regenerate her mana, but with the seemingly useless [Cleaning (LVL.MAX)] skill she removed impurities from the surrounding mana itself letting her body absorb it without just storing it. This was slowly, really slowly, increasing her maximum mana stat without even leveling up! Something that should be impossible in Terah.
A day later Thea was still meditating, she would do this until she was born, but ignorant of the changes to her maximum mana which had increased by 0.055%. In 3 months' time she would have increased her maximum mana by 5%, already overcompensating her lost maximum mana to her skills and bones.
3 months later the day came.
