I blinked as I found new concepts forming in my mind. Ki was in essence life-force energy, it determined how attached someone was to the mortal plane. Those that were sickly or close to death typically had a low amount of Ki, while those that were healthy and young typically had a high amount of Ki.
Ki didn't measure how much total life-force energy, just how much you had at any given time, meaning things like injuries could affect it easily. What was more interesting was that this energy wasn't just limited to wizards, but also their non-magical counterparts.
[Quest has been made.]
[Teach a man to fish.
Description: Muggles have generally been preyed on by wizards and other magical species. Right the wrongs and teach them how to defend themselves.
People taught: 0/10
Reward: 200,000 EXP, +5 to all Stat, Title: Equalizer]
Interesting, so normal people really could learn it. If I remember correctly, the Three Clans were still trying to find a way to incorporate magic into their fighting styles, something that was impossible when you consider that magic was more of a mental power.
It was like trying to imagine yourself being stronger than you were and then attempting to punch a brick wall, you wouldn't get anything except a broken hand and more disappointment. That wasn't to say there wasn't magic that couldn't mimic such results, it just wasn't the real thing.
Still, this presented an opportunity. Depending on who I thought I could gain quite a bit of influence and manpower, something that I was clearly lacking until I produced more dolls.
Sure, it technically meant breaking the Statute of Secrecy, but when has the law ever stopped me before. If I wanted to be smart about it, I would need to teach the masters of various martial arts and let them develop the skill in their own unique way before ultimately learning them myself.
I would need to think carefully on this, the last thing I would want was for the people I taught to gain some misguided sense of justice and try to start another witch hunt.
This task would best be suited for the Doctor.
Shaking my head, I focused on absorbing the other two skill books.
[Mana Reinforcement Technique (Active) LV: 1 EXP: 0.00%
A basic type of combat magic used to strengthen and increase their bodies' defenses. Members of the Three Clans are taught at a young age to sense the magic inside them and mold it throughout their bodies.
Increases STR by 10%
Increases DEX by 10%
Increases VIT by 10%
Increases VIT recovery rate by 10%
Increases stamina recovery rate by 10%
Cost: 50 MP per minute.]
If the book was to be believed, which I was partially skeptical of, mana reinforcement would be strong enough to take the full force of a blasting charm once fully mastered.
Of course, that could just be propaganda as it also said that no non-clansman could ever fully master this technique. But still, if even 1/10 of Chinese wizards knew this skill, it made sense why China was currently ranked first in the magical world. It made me curious how I stacked among their members.
[Magic Weapon (Active) LV: 1 EXP: 0.00%
An advanced weapon technique taught to disciples of the Three Clans to prepare them in the use of Chi Artifacts. Channeling magic through an object transforms it into a magical weapon for a short time, capable of affecting even those with indeterminable form.
Increases weapons Attack power by 10%
Duration: 10 Minutes
Cost: 50 MP]
Right, the Chi Artifacts, I really wanted to get my hands on one of them if they weren't so closely guarded and had a number of safeguards designed to stop theft.
Not to be confused with wands or normal enchanted weapons, Chi Artifacts were practically in a category of their own. They were sentient weapons crafted through a secret method, most likely illegal too, and imbedded with strange powers that could range from simple effects that would make everyone around it laugh uncontrollably to vaporizing everything in a 1 km radius. As I said, I really wanted one.
"Well at least now, I can finally get rid of the ghost wizard instead of always having to seal it," I thought out loud.

"Hermione, what did you guess to get for this part?" Padma asked from across the table.
"Um, I wrote that you need to stir the potion clockwise 4 times, 3 counter-clockwise and then let it simmer for 7 minutes," Hermione responded shyly.
"That's what I thought," Padma said as she continued her potions assignment.
"And done," Terry announced triumphantly, standing up from the end of the table and stretching his joints.
"Me too," Anthony said, snapping his book closed.
"Same," Michael added.
"Wait, already?" Hermione said, sounding truly shocked, even though she was only half done with the homework.
Lisa who was sitting next to her rolled her eyes, "Don't act so surprised, all of us are actually in the top ten of our year. Even Terry, despite how he acts, is in third place, just below you."
"S-sorry I'm just used to-" the bushy haired girl started.
"-being surrounded by those less intelligent than you," Padma finished for her with a knowing grin.
"That's-"
"It's fine. I can understand where you're coming from. I love my sister, but she can be… too peppy. Sometimes you need to be challenged to grow," the Indian girl explained.
Hermione didn't know how to respond to that, so she stayed quiet. She supposed that it was true to an extent.
"Ah, don't worry about it too much," Mandy said, slapping her in the back, "we're glad to have you join us. I'm sure Gryffindor must be giving you a pretty hard time after losing all those points?"
The bushy haired witch lowered her head.
"Thanks for that by the way," Terry added tactlessly, causing her to feel even guiltier.
