Transmigrated as a Ghost

After finishing Juniper's Diary, while they had not found any answers as to what Marcus had really been looking for, they had found out a few other interesting things.

"I suppose we should go and visit the amethyst blossom tree again and see if we cannot get in contact with Salvia. I know it is a long shot, but she might know more about spirit gems, and at the very least I would like to see what happened to her." 

"Yeah, that is a good idea. But to think that tree housed such a secret and one of the king's founders was buried under it." Mrazivý said with a complicated expression.

"However, before we do that there are a few more things that I want to look up." Marcus said before walking back over to Chitchit who had been waiting patiently.

"Chitchit, I am looking for books with information on spirits, would you guide us to them." Marcus said to the little bird.

"Cheep Cheep." Chitchit said before taking back off and leading the way.

"Tch" 

Clicking his tongue, even after pouring over a book about spirits, he did not find out very much he did not already know or had learned about from Aerial.

'I was hoping to find something about supreme spirits, but either they do not exist, or information about them is well hidden. I guess maybe I should try to see Recha again and see what she knows.'

Putting away the book he had been reading Marcus decided now was a good time to see if he could find out about any powerful skills he did not yet know of that he should save up for.

"Mraz I am about to head to another section, feel free to stay here and finish what you are reading." Marcus said as he prepared to leave.

"Okay, I will catch back up with you when I am done reading here." Mrazivý said to Marcus while she read through a book about different types of beasts.

"Lead the way Chitchit." Marcus said to his little bird guide.

Following the familiar who was his guide Marcus was quickly brought to a section that had lists of different skills.

Of course, Marcus could look through the expansive skill list offered by the system, but only for skills he ever had enough points to purchase.

So, now that he had a pretty good set of core skills, he was looking for powerful and rare ones like mana thief, that would push him over the top.

"Nope, nope, nope, ah, this one."

Looking through the different books and scrolls Marcus soon found a small journal that was titled, useful skills at high levels.

And when he opened it up, he found that as he thought this little book had been written by Boreas himself, probably after he had saved up a bunch of skill points in order to see most of the available skills.

However, when Marcus started reading a frown appeared on his face since the largest and most comprehensive section were resistance skills, that he already had or were not very useful to him as a ghost.

There were things like poison resistance, and petrification resistance, and while he knew that the former already did not work on him, he doubted the latter did either.

Still there were some good ones to make note of like charm resistance, since he had been on the receiving end of a vampire's gaze and while he had shrugged it off, it was possible a powerful charm could work on him.

'I already have both physical and magic resistance which he has as the top two but let me see what else I can find.'

Turning the page, Marcus was pretty satisfied with the skills he had made note of from the resistance section, but the next section made his eyes bulge.

'Stat enhancing skills.'

Becoming almost giddy, Marcus looked at this page that had only five skills listed with great interest.

He had looked for stat enhancing skills before but had turned up empty and thought that they may not exist.

'Herculean Strength, Sharp Reflexes, Unshakable Vigor, Expanded Mind, Blazing Spirit.'

Reading through the five skills, Marcus made special note of the two that would raise his spirit and intelligence score, since he felt those two would give him the greatest boost in power.

Still as he kept reading, he became a bit sullen, as apparently each of these skills, was as Boreas put it 'hell of expensive' or otherwise obtainable only through skill orbs.

'Still, I will need to keep them in mind. Even though they only raise a stat by one percent per skill level, that is still a sizeable increase especially the higher you go.'

Having located some very useful skills indeed, Marcus moved on to the last page that had rare skills that were apparently almost boarding on the power of a unique skill.

And as Marcus looked them over, he did find mana thief among them, along with plenty of other interesting skills he thought about obtaining.

However, after reading through this list of skills, Marcus now had a new problem, he had far more skills that he wanted to purchase in the future but only a limited number of skill points.

'Well, I have written down all of the ones I want in the future, maybe tonight I can go through and put them in some type of actual order I should get them in.'

After having spent hours going through the skills area of the archive, Marcus decided next to see what he could find out about the Great Gome Woods and more importantly the dungeon within it.

'I see, yeah if you entered a place like this you better be extra prepared.'

As Marcus read more about the dungeon within the Great Gome Woods, he came to understand more why even Thabon as strong as he was had his spirit broken, and why Juniper called it a hell hole.

Similar to the Cordillera Depths, the Great Gome Woods Dungeon was made up of different area's that were each their own ecosystem.

Yet unlike the other dungeons he had been in the areas in the Great Gome Woods had different restrictions necessary to leave or advance through an area.

It could also be different for any person who entered, and even if you completed the restriction the first time and left the area, when you came back you would get a new one.

Also, each area had its own true boss monster, so while a chest could be obtained from every area, apparently it was not rare to get kill the boss as a restriction to leave the area.

'This is one nasty dungeon all right, some of these restrictions could easily have you in the dungeon forever, if you do not have the right skill set. And apparently even the mob creatures are all at least level fifty even in the beginning area and they only get stronger.'

Reading everything he could about the Great Gome Woods Dungeon, Marcus made sure to write down ever different restriction and the details about areas that Boreas and his party had explored, though apparently, they still had only barely scratched the surface.
