While Billy wasn't making Archery level up by doing that, he practiced what Lily told him to: the movements of firing an arrow. He had a feeling that it was the same type of training he did to learn Light Spear, so it clearly wasn't a waste of time.
"Maybe if I refine this stance, I can learn that skill that Leo has, the one that probably increases firing speed," Billy thought. "I have no idea how to learn the others, though."
Now that Billy thought about it, having a high firing speed will make him use arrows faster, and without the skill in his bow that creates them, he will run out of ammo pretty fast. That wouldn't be bad as long as he hits the enemies with all of them, but…
"Billy, you are training too much lately," Camilla said while she was carrying Samuel and Samara. "If you don't rest properly, all the training will be useless."
"Yes, Mom," Billy said upon noticing that his siblings wanted to play with him.
Letting the muscles rest after training was also important for development, but Billy didn't have to worry about that, as long as he got to experience and his skills level up. Still, he decided to stop because he felt like his siblings were missing him. In a few years, they will become teenagers and think that he is old and uncool, so he had to make use of these moments while they last.

"No! Let's play battle!" Samuel said.
It looked like Samuel wanted to follow in the footsteps of the tribe. He was too young to be able to train, but Billy could tell that the kid truly was looking forward to it. At the same time, Samara looked a bit fearful since her dad and older brother always looked too serious while holding their weapons. In any case, Billy managed to play with both of them at the same time. Using one finger to win an arm-wrestling match against Samuel while he was carrying Samara on his back.
The next few days proceeded rather anticlimactically. His allies couldn't help but frown while seeing Billy training with the bow without firing a single arrow. They also couldn't understand how come Billy was sweating so much since he was doing something so simple and very slowly. They had no idea how troublesome and painful it was to pull the string hundreds of times in a row. Not to mention, the bow was heavy, so keeping that posture for long periods of time also was strength training.
Nevertheless, Billy could see his posture improving amidst his exhaustion and muscular pain. He had no other choice but to improve his posture to save energy and put less strain on his muscles, after all. Thanks to all that, after a month of training, his firing stance improved considerably. When he tried to check the results, he fired an arrow and hit a dummy in the head fifty meters away with barely any time to aim.
Congratulations! You have learned the skill Firing Speed.
Billy's assumptions were right… that training was to learn Firing Speed. However, how come Lily didn't have that skill and still taught him how to learn it? In any case, Billy tried to check the skill in action, and while it was a passive one, the effects still were visible, he could tell that his firing speed increased by around five percent… rather than that, he was more worried about what happened with his status screen.

Out of nowhere, the skills suddenly began to be divided by their type. It didn't make any sense… Was it because he thought of that? When Billy thought that the spells should also have a section for themselves, he checked his status again, and there it was… a section for spells. For some reason, the system was adapting to him.
"What the hell is going on here?" Billy thought while he was rubbing his chin.
It was clear that the system was a lot deeper than imagined, but Billy didn't know how he could see all that. He thought that the system was simple because it didn't give descriptions of anything, even the status or the skills, but it was clear that he was wrong. He needed to investigate more about it.
After messing with the system a bit more, Billy realized that he could use Analyze to find the description of the skills and status, but the status wasn't that accurate, or at least they didn't look accurate. With his current speed, the system said that he could run fifteen meters per second, but he had a hard time achieving eleven… maybe the max was the potential that he could show, but he couldn't show it all the time. Nevertheless, Billy learned a lot and confirmed things that he already knew. With each point in strength, he gained a boost of two points in kilograms. So, currently, he could lift up things that were heavier than one hundred kilograms… endurance decreased the damage caused by physical attacks by one point, and magic also decreased the effects of magic attacks by one point, for every three points in magic.
