Not sure if you confused the steps or not, but you only increase existing stats for the Animus and you pick your stats for the Novus. So for the Animus you just increase the existing stats by picking the appropriate book (STR, VIT, SS, ACC). Once you finish the Animus then you will go on to the Novus. Once there you will have to get 3 enchanted inks (500 myth each), and then get your materia scroll. At this point you will attach materia to the scroll using Alexandrite which are obtained from a daily quest, 800 myth, 200 Allied Seals, or random drop from Fates. This is where you pick what stats you want. You can pick whatever combination of secondary stats you want so long as it adds up to 75 points. You can put a maximum of 31 DET or PIE, and a maximum of 44 ACC/CRIT/Skill or Spell Speed. So you can do 31 DET/44 CRIT, 19 ACC/19 CRIT/19 SS/18 DET, or whatever combination you want. Full DET/CRIT is popular, but another good option would be something like 31 DET/22 CRIT/22ACC if you want to include some accuracy on it. It's really up to you, and what you do in the game.
