Chapter 9: The Grind (1)
~Silva POV~
Taking the time to wake up extra early in the morning and beginning casual exercise I began to focus on getting strong right away first, "That should be enough for today."
Panting heavily I got my daily reward quest again to choose which reward I get to pick out of the 3 since it reminds me of a certain webtoon comic Solo Leveling.
Grinning I checked the quest seeing it kind of worked the same case it did with me drenched in sweat but feeling accomplished doing it.

Grinning I know stats are important but currently though what I really lack is a good weapon knowing the rewards of the two I got I decided it was best to get a good item from there.
To be even more sure I pressed on the buttons for them to get a better understanding of how the item in question works.

Seeing the chance, I could get what I would want or need in the future would depend on what the situation calls for. And having the previous request reward about another box I have the choice of another Box to choose from.
If that's the case, then I'll choose Cursed Box from the first quest and Blessed Box from my Daily Quest that way I can get two items out of it.
Just hope it don't screw me over.
[Ding!]
[You picked reward #2!]
[You receive reward +3 Stats!]
[Ding!]
[You picked Reward #3 Cursed Box!]
[Ding!]
[You picked Reward Blessed Box!]
Hmm…
I couldn't help but raise an eyebrow at the items actually small boxes as I opened them up soon enough with a small flash of light the box vanishing soon in the palm of my hand an item from it.
One of the items from the Cursed Chest Box that I opened with the light particles began to sparkle down appeared making the box disappear to transform into a red gem but the power radiating off of it though...
The Blessed Chest Box then did the same to reveal the light particles that take the form of two floating discs floating from behind me now.
Getting curious why would I need these items I use my

Item: Philosopher Stone
Rarity Item: SSS
Type: Stone
Description: A red ruby that seemed like blood crystalized. It's a legendary item that has been created and lost to time by the mightiest Alchemist of its time. The item itself borderlines on divine intervention, being the closest thing to God using the Host's intent to transmute what the user wants.

-Trump Card: The trump card of Mastema

My eyes widen at the items I got especially with the Philosopher Stone. That's like a cheat item this early on but…
Why would I need this in the future?
…
Shaking my head, it was best to keep this close on hand to my person as it's too precious to use and should be saved when I need it.
And Mastema...
Isn't that from that Dark Anime what was its name?
Hmm... oh!
Akame ga Kill right?
Aren't all these artifacts kind of powerful with their users and this one can grant me flight as well as long-range attacks?
Sounds useful to have at hand to me.
For the time being though I decided to go back to my rented room for the moment before I go to Fairy Tail library to obtain get a better idea of how to improve myself trying to replicate a few skills.
Should probably look after its history while I'm at it in case I'm in the anime or manga version of this world. Or quite possibly a mix between the two but first a shower.

"Ahh…"
Breathing out in relief and some quick breakfast I finally took notice as I saw myself in the mirror playing around pointing my fingers at my reflection, "Hey good looking what's cooking?"
Sigh…
Earthland seriously need some other form of entertainment soon possibly Anime or novels which they have plenty of books here.
Wonder if I can ask Erza to teach me her fighting style in the future considering I might need to learn to fight against S-Class mages or some experience fighting stronger foes. But those thoughts are for later right now though…
Uh-huh?
About time I actually learned more magic although I was reluctant to learn it since it could be worth more.
*Splash*
Getting out of the water and drying myself off I began to get dressed for the day researching this world's use of Magic and seeing how I should progress myself using Mana to help circulate those ideas into my own arsenal.
And after taking a look in the mirror I can see myself slowly changing with my muscles tightening seeing my no longer chubby body before mumbling to myself, "At the very least I'll be a lean fighting machine. Better than being fat and people giving me self-conscious body shame."
One merely needs to improve themselves to truly start changes. But then again, I have my ability as [THE GAMER] to help make that process go a whole lot smoother.
Nodding contently at that I began to leave out of my room and headed towards the Fairy Tail Guild to get myself a set of books that I want to learn.
/////
*Thud*
Entering the Guild with the rest of the members chatting or drinking I couldn't help but marvel at this place.
What can I say being isekaied into an anime or manga of one of the best series is really out of this world for me.
Shaking my head I began to move towards their library again as I go through the door meeting up with Levy again as I wave at her, "Sup! Nice to see you again Levy and is it morning or afternoon?"
She stops looking at her book as she gazes at me and greets me in a friendly manner with a smile on her face, "Silva, right? You certainly look a bit different than I last saw you. Lost some weight? And it's a good morning, you here to search on the library more?"
Nodding my head I then revealed the reason why as it's no harm asking and hoping to learn more about this world more, "Yeah, and thanks for noticing. I kind of wanted to see if there was any versatile magic for me to add other than the Requip Magic and possibly melee combat. Which by the way thanks for showing me."
She blinks surprised seeing I'm trying to add more to my arsenal before gesturing me over as I followed she replied to me a bit surprised, "Your welcome. Trying to learn a new spell huh? Haven't seen most try to learn more than a few but then again it does take days, months, or years to practice you know?"
I kind of figured that would be the case since I haven't seen other Fairy Tail characters other than a select few have more than one spell in their arsenal.
I nodded for her response as she asked me for what kind of Magic, I was interested in to help out just pure curiosity, "Anyway what kind of Magic are you looking for exactly? Which ones are you interested in? Perhaps I can help you out with which ones you want. I don't mean to brag, but I have read the majority of books here."
Grinning at this I decided to flat-out respond to what Magic I was interested in getting her interested asking about her magic, "Well… I'm actually looking for any versatile Magic I'm lacking in firepower in that department. But starting with the basics and foundation also helps. And since we're on the topic what's exactly your Magic anyway Levy?"
She smiles and directed me as she shows off her Magic I was actually awed by it in the clear surprise of her Solid Script Magic.
It in my honest opinion is one of the most underrated magic I read in the Fairy Tail manga but also one with most potential if given the right destructive vocabulary but there was another that I was interested in.
Like say if one would write the words 'HAKI' would it release spiritual energy or 'NEN' to break the minds of their targets with those terms' natural properties?
Although for now though I let Levy show off as I was interested in her magic till, I hear two voices enter the room getting her attention.
"Yo! Levy you here!"
"Come on we got a job!"
Levy listening looked a bit embarrassed as she apologized to me and left to go on to her job explaining it to me, "Shoot! I forgot I have a job to do with Jet and Droy! Sorry, Silva but I have to go just head down here to look for what you want! Surely, you'll find the magic you're looking for. Good luck!"
Like that, she left as I was left alone inside a library to my own devices.
Gawking around on all of these Magic books I couldn't help but drool a bit seeing all the free skills to obtain entering the library.
Only to scowl reminding myself I can't even use the mass majority of them as I sighed remembering my own weakness. Really got to level up my
Although I don't have the right mindset to simply just try and collect every single one of the Magic Spells in my skills since I would prefer the ones that work for me. What better way than the basics right?
Have to start a foundation somewhere right?
Actually, didn't that Fairy Sphere spell inside the library where Lucy found it against Acnologia in the final moments of the chapter finale?
Could the rest be here as well?
Shrugging those thoughts away time to get the basics of what kind of steps I need to make my Mana work similarly to the spell to make it work.
