Michael's luck was still as insufficient as he had always remembered.
He did get a skill, but it was not any of the new skills he wanted. It was a familiar one. Phase Shift.
The copy brought his mastery to advanced, which was a huge leap from basic.
One could say he had benefited massively, especially considering the high chance of failure, and Michael knew this. Even so, when he compared it to the nature of the other skills, he could not bring himself to be fully satisfied.
In the end Michael had no choice but to accept it. Phase Shift was still a great skill. It was not what he wanted, but it was not useless either. With the mastery now at advanced, the improvement was tremendous. He knew that logically, but emotionally, he still felt a sting. It was hard not to imagine what Fold Blink or Dimensional Shroud would have done for him.
