You continued to train in General techniques however your progress was slowed due to the lack of a personal Spirit Partner.
Because of this you could only train in Spirit Unity, as without a Spirit Partner you could not go deeper into the uses of Oversouls.

In between training sessions you looked more into how to raise your Furyoku levels.
[1d100=61. Roll Needed: 75. Fail]
Unfortunately you have been able to find a definite way to raise furyoku, the only thing you found this time around was mentions of 'Death' in conjunction to Furyoku, which you don't understand.
However you feel as if you're getting closer to finding the answers you seek. Not only that but Grandpa found out your looking to raise your Furyoku levels and offered to help you with your research, though you felt that he preferred that the knowledge of raising your Furyoku levels be a secret for a few more years.

You also started looking into the mirror your brother sent you, in between your training sessions and research into Furyoku.
You first looked in the family library for information about unique mirrors.
[1d100=75. Needed Roll: 80. Fail]
While you have found information about unique mirrors you couldn't tell if they were talking about your mirror or something else, the possibility that your mirror could be a copy of something never crossed your mind.

[Can now train in Dowsing]
[Kino's Present: 1d100=100 Critical! 1d100: 94.]
You were gaping at what your grandmother had sent you. Inside the box she sent was a book on Beginner Itoko techniques, however that wasn't all she had also included a book on how to raise one's Furyoku level and a 108 Bead Rosary made from the bones of demon your grandmother had to deal with recently.
You promised yourself to not just glomp your grandmother but you'd GLOMP her, this was the best present from her ever!

This year your mother got you a set of Kannushi robes and the promise to train him in their ways.
Not only that she also got you books on the various treasures of Japan, most noticeably the Imperial Regalia of Japan which depicts the image of your mirror!
Hao's present was actually the Yata no Kagami! This fact shocks you to your core.

Your old man however sent you the newest Soul Bob album. How he knew you became addicted to the music is beyond you, since he never came home.
While you liked it, it was kind of underwhelming compared to your other gifts.
Before you went to bed you left out a badly drawn picture of you and Hao together at the mansion, for your brother.

AN: Dear lord, those birthday rolls. Seems the Dice really loved you guys.
Now since you guys can now train an Invention/Creation skill, you should know this; Imagination is raised by 5 for every 10 points in an Invention/Creation skill. Imagination is needed to make more complex Oversouls.
As always give me some constructive criticism, tell me of any errors, and make sure you guys enjoy yourselves.
