The Sapphire Crystal pulsed in my hands, calling out to me, but I had another thought.
How do I use it? Do I eat it just like the Beast Cores?
I brought it up slowly to my mouth, but a couple System Prompts blared at me.
[Use x1 Bronze Rank Skill Crystal (Random)?]
[Yes/No]
So there really was a different way to use them. But it also made me wonder how someone without a System might have figured out the difference...
Yes.
The crystal's glow deepened and then, a web of cracks spread along its surface, before the whole thing shattered, morphing into threads of blue light that then shot straight into my forehead.
There was a dull ache, but only for a moment.
[Skill Crystal Consumed.]
[You have acquired the Bronze-Rank Skill [Unease I].]
I blinked. Unease?
The System clarified.
