The Author's POV

Waiting by the door of the treasury, Randur turned his head toward me, sensing my gaze.
"Have you selected your skill?" He asked, squinting.
"Yeah."
"Which one is it?"
"I choose this skill."
I handed Randur the skill book that I had chosen.
Lowering his head and staring at the book, a surprised look flashed on Randur's face.
"Eye of Chronos?"
"Yes."
After thinking things through, I decided that this was the most optimal skill for me at the moment.
Quick burst was nice since I could activate it immediately unlike the third movement of the Keiki style, but the five minute cool down at the end was what made me turn away from it.
In the end, after thinking things properly, the Eye of Chronos was the only option for me.
"Hmm... If I'm not wrong, you're still rank. That means you won't be able to learn this skill until you breakthrough to rank. Are you sure about your decision?" Randur questioned, looking at the description of the skill book in his hands.
Raising my head and meeting Randur's eyes, I nodded.
"Yes, I'll go with this."
Although I couldn't learn the skill immediately, I was not in need of any skills at the present moment.
Since I was going to stay in Henolur until things outside calmed down and also wait for Malvil to finish forging my sword, I was not pressed for time.
"Well, okay, as long as you're fine with that decision. Gervis did say that you could pick whatever you want. Now that you've chosen, let's go back." Randur said, shrugging his shoulders.
Taking a step out of the treasury, he looked at me right in the eyes and asked once again.
"Once we leave, you won't be able to change your mind, so I'll repeat it one more time: are you sure about your decision? Do you really want to pick that skill?"
"I'm sure," I replied without an ounce of hesitation.
This was the ideal skill that I needed, and I wasn't going to let it slip away just because of some short-term gains.
Gazing in my direction for a brief moment, Randur lowered his head and placed his palm by the side of the door.
"Alright."
Motioning me to get out, he tapped the emblem that he had previously attached to the wall.
"I've already recorded your choice. I'll now be closing the treasury."
As soon as his words faded, Randur retrieved the emblem stuck on the wall and the ground once again started to shake with a low rumble.

'I wish I could've taken more.'
I thought to myself as I stared at the treasury from behind Randur.
It was just a wish, but I also knew that it was impossible. Well, that was unless I
made any more contributions.
'I should just be happy with what I have.'
