INFINITE PATHS: THE RAGING PHOENIX - Season 1 Episode 5

Around the time Rain was three months old, he made his language skill reach level four, and his path leveled up. The reason for that was quite interesting.

(The Language Skill has leveled up.)

(The Human Path obtained 40 experience points.)

(The Human Path leveled up.)

(All Parameters plus 01.)

(You obtained 10 experience points.)

“I get it now. Every time a skill levels up, the path gains an amount of experience that is equal to the level of the skill multiplied by ten,” Rain thought. “Whenever a path levels up, I gain experience that is equal to the level of the path multiplied by ten. I guess I can level up myself even as a toddler.”

Speaking of progress, Rain finally knew the names of his parents, grandparents, and the other granny. They were Roan, Leiah, Roswall, Melody, and Moira. Aside from Moira, they were from the Lonard family.

In any case, Rain’s grandparents never came to visit. Still, he only realized that because he was in desperate need of hearing people talking, it was the only time he could make the language skill level up, after all.

Fortunately, Rain’s mother began to take him outside just to take some sunbathes now and then. It didn’t seem like she had many acquaintances there, so it was rare for her to talk with anyone. Rain still could hear people talking, though.

“I guess that is one of the reasons she didn’t leave the house until now,” Rain thought.

Although she didn’t have many acquaintances, Rain’s mother was pretty, and she was a social butterfly; it didn’t take long for her to make some friends. Rain’s father also brought some soldiers home to introduce his family to them. At least during those times, he didn’t act like a fool and made faces in order to make Rain laugh. It never worked, but he was persistent.

Rain’s vocabulary began to improve by leaps and bounds after that. He learned that he lived in a city called Tristan, and which was one of the closest to the capital of the human kingdom of Romera. While Rain was interested in the history of that place and country, people talked mostly about the wars.

Speaking of wars, Rain learned that humans had been at war against the dragon people and the magic people for a while. It stopped ten years ago, but it was back again. Rain’s father worked as a guard in a town close to the border, and his father slapped him because he had a son with a lowborn woman.

“What is the point of worrying about that? She is gorgeous… objectively speaking,” Rain thought and then sighed. “I feel weird calling my mother gorgeous, but it is better than calling her a babe or a hottie. One of the demerits of having memories of my past life.”

Medieval society had been built around a strict social hierarchy, with nobility and the upper class holding significant power, wealth, and influence. Marrying someone from a lower social class was seen as a threat to the established order and the privileges associated with noble birth. It wouldn’t increase the status of the same family.

Marriages were often strategic alliances aimed at preserving and consolidating wealth, land, and inheritance within a family. Marrying someone from a lower social class could potentially mean a loss of wealth, status or the dilution of family assets.

Either way, Rain couldn’t blame people for thinking like that since they lived in a medieval society. In any case, Rain learned a lot in one month, and thanks to it, his language reached level 17, his path reached level five, and he leveled up.

(The human path reached level five.)

(All Parameters increased by one.)

(You learned the skill of Body Motor Skills.)

(You received 40 experience points.)

(You leveled up and obtained five status points.)

Human Path

Level 1: Language – You gained the ability to learn and understand spoken and written languages more easily.

Level 5: Body Motor Skills – Improved coordination and control over bodily movements.

“This is a skill, huh… interesting. I guess leveling this up will be easier than language,” Rain thought.

It was a small difference, but Rain could feel that he could move his body better. Leiah almost fainted when she saw him getting up and sitting on the bed. Kids of his age shouldn’t be that strong-willed to get up without being taught.

“If everyone in this world has this system, then this skill is the type that helps toddlers crawl with more ease…” Rain thought. “Considering that the skills are this basic in the human path, it would make sense.”

Rain’s bed was quite high, and even with his parameters, he didn’t think that he was strong enough to climb down. Fortunately, while he was thinking about that, Rain’s mother began to let him sit on the ground.

“Don’t move from the living room, okay, Rain?” Leiah asked. “I will keep an eye on you, but I also work.”

Rain didn’t see his mother working until now. He thought that her job was to try to make him fall asleep all the time since that was what she tried… he had to pretend that it was working. In any case, Rain saw her making copies of books. That required a lot of focus since she couldn’t mess up a single word, so Rain decided to crawl in circles and see the Body’s Motor Skills getting experience.

“… Now I feel worried,” Leiah said while watching Rain crawl in circles.
