I am the protagonist

Medea immediately came up and took Shirou's schoolbag.

"Shirou, the bathwater is ready. Would you like to take a bath first?"

"Have you all already showered?"

"Yes, we've already washed."

"Sakura is preparing dinner. Shirou can go take a shower first."

Shirou glanced at Rin beside him. Well, ladies first, after all.

"Rin, do you want to take a shower first?"

"I'll wait until you've washed before I go wash."

"I have a habit of taking a bath, so it probably won't be that quick to finish."

"Why don't you go wash first?"

"Well, I'm going to take a shower first."

Shirou walked towards the bathroom.

He took off his clothes outside, grabbed a towel, and went into the bathroom.

Hot water had already been turned on, and now the whole room is filled with heat.

He turned on the showerhead, and water at the right temperature sprayed onto Shirou's head.

I also need to reorganize my fighting style.

Before he came into contact with magic, Shirou's fighting system mainly relied on Dying Will Flame and time.

This is indeed a rather terrifying way of fighting.

Invincible attributes and invincible abilities.

When they work together, they are basically invincible in one-on-one situations.

Although Shirou lacked wide-range attack methods at the time, his strength in that world was still second to none.

Almost no one can defy the power of time.

[The old fighting style wasn't bad, but it always felt like a waste not to use the power I gained.]

[The power of the Mystic Eyes was purchased from the Origin Shop; it's a power applicable to all worlds.]

While time isn't universally applicable in every world, it should be usable in any extraordinary world.

[Abilities that don't involve the mysteries of the world are unlikely to be disabled.]

Having experienced a world, Shirou has also grasped some of the boundaries that can be applied between different worlds.

As long as it doesn't involve a direct power system, most of these skills can be used as support abilities.

However, if it involves the world's power system, then those skills cannot be used.

Techniques like [Zero Point Breakthrough] and [Flame of Dying Will] cannot be used once you leave that world.

[My rapid growth has accelerated my adaptation to the power of the new system.]

Harmony and balance allow me to control my own body and also prevent some external intrusions.

The item box makes my movements much easier; I can carry a lot of materials with me whenever I need to.

[Should we focus more on improving support-oriented skills now?]

【So……】

Shirou called out his control panel.

[Would you like to spend 1 SP to purchase the skill Stealth?]

[Spend 1 SP to purchase the Eavesdropping skill?]

Yes!

These two skills differ from knowledge-based skills; they do not involve a large influx of knowledge into the brain.

However, Shirou did see the effects of these two skills.

Stealth: Slightly reduces one's own presence; needs to be used in conjunction with Concealment.

Eavesdropping: The ability to hear conversations through simple obstacles.

The skills of stealth, concealment, and eavesdropping are quite useful for intelligence gathering.

[The Concealment skill allows you to hide your scent and aroma.]

hide!

Sniff!

The odor on my body has lessened somewhat.

[It seems that the amount of aura and scent one can conceal is directly related to the skill level.]

[Stealth can reduce one's presence.]

However, it only works when used in conjunction with the Conceal skill.

The skills of concealment and stealth are most effective when no unnecessary actions are taken.

[Eavesdropping... I don't need to improve it much now; my five senses are already strong enough.]

confirmed.

[Should I spend 45 SP to upgrade the hidden skill?]

[Spend 10 SP to upgrade the skill "Stealth"?]

Yes!

hide!

Sniff!

It's perfect.

[The smell on my body was completely hidden.]

[I wonder if their presence has been concealed as well; I should probably go find Saber and the others to confirm.]

Shirou double-checked the skill descriptions.

Concealment: Completely conceal one's scent and smell, and hide all sounds made by one's actions.

Lurk: Moderately reduces one's presence and can be used while moving.

The Concealment skill is even more powerful than I imagined.

Shirou previously thought that concealing one's aura and scent was the best one could do, but he never imagined that even the sounds made during movement could be concealed.

This skill is exactly what an assassin needs most.

[Even concealment has become a skill that can be used during combat.]

[Any skill upgraded to its highest level indeed has extraordinary effects.]

Previously, the Conceal skill could be used at any time, but the level of Concealment was completely different.

And it is a skill that requires active control.

The hidden state can be easily broken if the skill is not controlled.

But now it has become a regular occurrence, and it is no longer a skill that needs to be switched on and off, but has become an instinctive reaction of the body.

Yes, it's a natural bodily reaction.

It can be used freely without any control, and it's a completely permanent skill, just like automatic HP regeneration.

It was worth the investment; this skill was definitely worth it.

The skill enhancement at level 5 is a significant improvement, changing from a minor to a moderate increase.

[As expected, skills change in a certain amount over three levels, with the final level being the most unique type of change.]

[Skill level has been improved.]

[Does this mean I should now pursue a path of transitioning from warrior to magician?]

"...Well, my true attributes seem to be geared towards a magician, but I've made myself look like a melee mage."

In the previous world, Shirou's attributes were biased towards magic power and agility.

It was only because Shirou was skilled in using the Dying Will Flame that he was able to enhance his strength and agility, allowing him to engage in close combat.

Now Shirou needs to conceal his power and physical abilities.

It fully showcases the advantages of the Magic Eye and speed.

It also allows you to unleash your magical abilities.

As for the others, it's best to hide them.

The emphasis should be placed on the performance of technique rather than the performance of strength.

Chapter 100's hidden content is truly amazing, beyond imagination!

Even after leaving the bathroom, Shirou remained hidden.

[Even without consciously lifting or placing the footsteps gently, no sound was heard.]

I quickened my pace, but there was still no sound of footsteps.

Concealment has evolved beyond a skill; it has become a technique integrated into the body.

The body has fully accepted the techniques of concealment, and even uses them entirely on instinct.

It's practically a permanent skill.

This makes Shirou somewhat curious about what changes will occur after reaching the top level of infiltration.

Could it be a technique, like concealment, where skills are integrated into the body?

In the future, we should strive to master more skills.

Only by upgrading a skill to its highest level can its full potential be realized.

There was no deliberate attempt to hide it.

But Shirou still didn't make a sound, even when he opened the door.

He walked up behind Rin and gently patted her shoulder.

"I'm all washed, Rin."

"Now it's your turn to wash."

Unaware of what was happening, Rin shuddered violently, and the panic caused by the sudden sound only subsided when she turned around.

"!?"

"You, you're scaring me, okay?!"

"Being suddenly startled from behind can be terrifying!"

Seeing that the person behind her was Shirou, Rin's heart, which had been pounding, finally calmed down.

Just because she had been frightened for no reason, Rin's expression turned fierce.

He showed off his little tiger teeth.

It stared at Shirou like a hungry cat pouncing on its prey.

"Shirou, you definitely scared me on purpose just now!"

"It's a misunderstanding, just a complete misunderstanding."

Shirou was certain that he hadn't intentionally tried to scare Rin.

He simply walked behind Rin and reminded her that the bathroom was empty.

That's all I had in mind.

It was definitely not something I did on purpose to scare someone.

"I just came over to remind you that you can go take a shower."
