Chelsea’s Skills (I’ll Never Set Foot in that House Again!)
-
So, I just recently got caught up with reading Volume 4, but I noticed something strange towards the end of it… In the bonus chapter, “Let’s Learn Magic”, Glen teaches Chelsea how to use “Fireball” and “Ice Arrow”… wouldn’t that mean that she possesses [Fire Magic] and [Ice Magic], on top of her ridiculously overpowered main skill? Glen specifically states in Volume 2 that Ice Magic can only be used by those who possess the [Ice Magic] Skill, and I’m assuming that the same is true of Fire Magic.
I’m guessing that Chelsea’s [Ice Magic] and [Fire Magic] Skills are not high enough for her to require control training. Either that, or she just didn’t need it, since she has a good imagination and instantly surpassed Glen when it comes to using [Clean].
Well, technically, what she has is both a strong imagination and good visualization. Those do not necessarily go hand-in-hand. That’s beside the point though.
Don’t get me wrong, I love Chelsea and her main skill, but there’s no denying that it’s insanely overpowered. Even the people around her realize that. Was it really necessary for her to have Fire and Ice Magic on top of that? Not to mention… when did she awaken those? I’ve long been confused as to whether people who have multiple skills awaken all of their skills at age 12, or if they only awaken their main one and then awaken the others later?
I’m also curious as to why Chelsea’s [Seed Creation] skill doesn’t have a level attached to it? Is she just automatically Sage-level due to being the first one to have it? It would make sense if that was the case, and later users had limitations on what they could make. I’m also wondering what the level on Mikah’s [Cooking Skill] is? It’s never stated. It’s only said that Royz taught her Japanese recipes after she awakened it. Nothing is ever mentioned about Technical Skills not having levels.
Now granted, as OP as Chelsea is, Glen kind of is too. The Sage-Level [Appraisal] is one thing, but to have Sage-Level [Cure] on top of that?! And then there’s Mikah, with her Sage-Level [Interrogation]! Aren’t Sage-Level users of any Skill supposed to be extremely rare? It seems like Chelsea is surrounded by them!
Also… just how many Skills does Glen have?! He must’ve been fun to train as a kid. 😅
