Chapter 166: Chapter 166
Percy let his mom take care of Leo, mostly because he didn't want to put up with the dog, but also to serve as protection for him mom. Leo would probably grow up pretty strong, and since he basically treated Percy's mother like a goddess it would be the best bodyguard for her while Percy was away.
He did however managed to train him a little. The 'Canidae Trainer' perk allowed him to control and understand Leo to a certain degree. He couldn't communicate back with words, but he could send Leo commands mentally and send positive, or negative emotions over. The two still hated each other, but they came to a neutral position, Percy didn't mess with Leo and the half hellhound wouldn't mess with him, or pee on everything he owned.
Percy eventually went back to camp and quickly began training his friends again. He gained another level before the summer was over and several of his skills had leveled up as well;

Percy used 4 points on his Dex and 7 stat points in Str and with a little bit of training managed to bring the base stat of Str to 50 giving him a new perk;
Body Form- Allows user to focus all strength into one part of their body. The focused area will gain x4 power for a desired time. Cool down will last for twice as long and total strength will be reduced by half till full recovery.
It was very useful, Percy tended to use the perk in short burst. Just before he landed a hit he would activate this and deactivate it after the attack. That along with his Earthquake style attacks resulted in a devastating hand to hand combat provise.

At the end of camp Percy had gotten his camp necklace on which were two beads, one was a green trident showing his parentage and the other was a red sword. When Percy asked Annabeth what it meant she told him it was a sort of thank you gift from all the campers. A symbol of him going to the Underworld to bring half of them back from the dead. Needless to say Percy wore it with pride.
At the end of summer Percy went back to Yancy academy for the seventh grade. In all honesty he was glad to be doing something so….normal again. The fact that his only job nowadays was studying and not going into the Underworld and fighting monsters was relaxing, he could have done without all the homework though.
However this time when school started Percy realised something, he understood every single thing in the book. EVERYTHING! DO YOU KNOW WHAT THAT'S FUCKING LIKE?!
All his life he had been called an idiot, useless. His fifth grade teacher told him he wouldn't amount to anything and for a time he believed the bitch. But now with his Int at 34 Percy realised right now he was the smartest person in class, and everyone knew it.
During the first set of exams Percy didn't just pass, he dominated. The highest scorer in the class used to be Han, the guy who taught Percy about the basics of video games, at around 80% or something. Percy got 100%, in every single thing.
the teacher of course thought he was teaching, so they made him take another test. He got 100% in that as well. It was honestly like a dream. The school even called his mom over and told her about how, 'they had discovered a genius' in Percy and how 'she should make him live up to his full potential.'
Sally did nothing but smile, she was proud of Percy, and that made Percy happier than ever. That was the whole reason he wanted to use the gamer ability for. At the end of the meeting Sally asked Percy what he wanted to do, and the demigod, not wanting to disappoint his mother, agreed to skip ahead.
Eighth grade was strange to say the least for Percy. Most of the boys were looking at the girls all the time, and most of the girls were so wholly focused on their own looks they kind of reminded Percy of the Aphrodite kids. He kind of felt alienated at first but eventually they accepted him into their group and the demigod got along great with the older kids.
And so the year went on. Percy gained two points in Int by Christmas and also a few peculiar new skills;
Scrince!, Lv-X
A branch of knowledge that deals with the physical world.
Physics- Lv- 1- Basic concepts of physical science.
Chemistry- Lv-1- Basic concepts of chemical science.
Botany- Lv- 1- Basic concepts of science dealing with flora.
Zoology- Lv- 1- Basic concepts of science dealing with fauna.
Math!, Lv-X
A branch of knowledge that deals with numbers.
Algebra- Lv- 1- A branch of math where symbols are used to represent numbers and quantities.
Geometry- Lv- 1- A branch of Math dealing with lines and structures and surfaces
Calculus- Lv- 1- A branch of Math that deals with Integrals and differential equations
Applied math- Lv- 1- Math the can be used in the real world.
Percy didn't know what these were at first, but after a little research and questioning Han a lot he found out this was basically the starting of a knowledge tree. It would be commonly used in games in regard to skills, unlocking new ones after one masters an old skill. It seems Percy got the same deal, except it was for his studies and not his usual skills.
Over the year Percy learnt a lot of things. He basically read through half of his school's library making his english skill;
Language: Modern English, Lv-26 (90%)
Due to you being a demigod you have Dyslexia, but with hard work you have overcome your disabilities and you're reading is now near grade level-College+
+70% reading speed
And giving him seven more points in Int;
INT-43
At with all that knowledge Percy started a side business in the school, he started touring. He didn't really charge money, he just did it to make more friends. Nancy was one of the few people he taught first and soon more came from both the eighth and seventh grade. Soon he had leveled up his teaching skills;
Teaching, Lv-25
You impart on your student a piece of what you know.
(Wis+Int)% how much the student understands
+60% if their Int is lower than yours.
He also took a surprising interest into zoology, especially marine zoology causing it to become a sub skill;
Zoology- Lv- 2- Basic concepts of science dealing with fauna.
· Marine Zoology- Lv-3- Basic concepts of science dealing with marine creatures.
Percy also learnt other things over the years time. And he learnt it from his servants. The idea of learning from his servants was an idea he got from something Annabeth said sometime ago when they were in a cab going to the trap Luke set up for them. She mentioned how cool it would be if Alecto could be used to teach others all she knew.
And so Percy did just that. He learnt all he could from Alecto and Marchosias and between the two he learnt a lot. From Alecto he learn how to form runes made out of his blood. They basically allowed him to do a lot of different things from animating a statue to giving himself a temporary +5 STR stat boost. He had to draw most of the runes using his own blood and that cost him HP;
Runes, Lv-12 (21%)
Symbols used to bend reality depending on what the user wishes.
Library of rune formulas;
Animation spell- Animate an object. Cost- 20 HP+20MP per feet of object's surface.
Temporary boost- Boost a stat for 1 minute. Cost- 10 HP+300 MP
Protection- Make an item protected from all harm, Defence offered- +1000HP. Cost- 1000HP
Heal- Heal a person, Restoration = Amount of HP used. Cost- X HP+200 MP
Summon Water- Summon large quantities of water. Cost- 10 HP+100 MP per liter
He had practised the runes day in and day out. He still had a lot to learn and even his gamer skills wasn't helping in increasing the time it took for him to learn it all. Alecto once mentioned it took years for some to even know how to do a handful of runes, the fact Percy knew 5 already was nothing short of amazing.
From Marchosias he had learnt demon spells. They were more like curses than spells and by the time Percy learnt the first one he was shit scared of what he could now do;
Demon Spells, Lv-9 (42%)
Spells made in the depths of hell.
Library of Demon spells;
Revenge of the Dead curse- Causes the victim to be tormented by souls of the dead, either those he loved of those he hates. Cost- 1000 MP + 1 Human soul
Bad Luck curse- Destroys all luck a victim has for a desired period of time. Cost - 750MP per hour.
Maggot Infestation curse- Wherever the curse hits will soon be infested with maggots. Cost 300MP
Mind Destruction curse- Destroys a victim's psyche. Cost- 1 Human soul.
And these were the really friendly ones. Needless to say they were not Percy's all time favorite skill. The curse that needed human souls were something he avoided on principle, in fact the only reason he even learnt them was because Marchosias insisted that he needed to, somethin bout a right of passage or something. In the end the only spell he was really good at was the bad luck curse which he used often on people who pissed him off.
