My Slayer System: Rise to Supremacy

Chapter 25: Testing a Theory



When Jake left the VR room, it was already afternoon, so he decided to go to the gym to train a bit. For some hours. When he got to the gym room, he started exercising.

"Jake, you do know that you have completed your daily quest for today right?" Zee asked.

"Yeah, I know but I can't help but try to exercise." Jake replied already picking up weights. "What that fisherman guy said is true. All the strength and speed is totally useless without skills."

"How does exercising help with that?" Zee asked.

"It doesn't. It just helps to take my mind off some things." Jake replied.

Then Jake started lifting weights for thirty minutes straight. Immediately he was done, he heard a ding in his head.

<+1 stats point to strength.>

"Huh!?!! What in the world was that?" Jake asked.

"I think the system decided to gift you the free stat point after your heavy weight lifting." Zee replied.

In order to see if the system was playing tricks on him, Jake pulled up his status screen.

"woah, the system was serious." Jake stated excitedly. "I wonder if.."

Jake went towards the treadmill and turned it on then he started running on it. Jake ran and ran for 1 hour thirty minutes straight before he heard a ding in his head.

<+1 stats point to agility.>

Jake quickly pulled up his status screen again and truly he got a free stat point.

<Status>

<User: Jake Lucas>

<Level: 5>

<Combat level: Novice>

<Skill level: Untrained>

<XP level: 70/200>

<HP: 30/30>

<Strength: 24>

<Agility:20>

<Endurance: 27>

"woah! This is awesome. But all these are useless without skills. I need skills." Jake said.

Zee didn't reply because he knew that nothing he will say will soothe Jake so he watched Jake leave the gym dejectedly to his dorm room. Jake left the gym around 7pm, he got to his dorm 20 minutes later.

He entered the room, greeted his roommates and went to his bed to rest since the next day was a Monday.

"what happened to him?" Vynn asked noticing Jake's mood.

The rest just shrugged and continued what they were doing earlier. When it was 10pm, they decided to go to sleep.

The next day was a Monday, when it was 4am, Jake went out to do his daily quest as usual. This time when Jake got to the gym, he was shocked for the gym was unlocked.

"Huh?! Who could be in there by this time? I thought it was only me that comes here by this time." Jake said while making his way to the gym.

Jake got to the door, opened it gently, peeked his head inside and then his mouth was left wide open for a stunning beauty was inside exercising. The girl's proportions were perfect. Not too big and not too small. She had beautiful long silver hair. Currently she was using the treadmill machine to exercise.

Jake kept on staring at her until she got down from the machine and then noticed that the door was quite open.

"Who are you? What are you doing here?" The girl asked coming over to where Jake was standing.

"Wait what! I am supposed to ask you that question. What are you doing here?" Jake said snapping out of his earlier daze.

"What does this place look like? Isn't it a gym? What do they do in a gym?" She asked.

"I mean, since I got to the academy, I haven't seen anybody come here as early as this except me." Jake said.

"Well I usually come here but not as early as this. I just decided to come here early." she replied.

"oh, that's nice." Jake said already walking off to start his daily quest. But before he left, she called him back.

"Sorry, excuse me. Do you mind if I know your name?" she asked politely.

"Sure why not." Jake said pulling his hand out for a handshake. "My name is Jake, Jake Lucas."

"My name is Cindy clark." Cindy said shaking Jake's hand. That was when she glanced at Jake's watch and saw his power level. "So you are a power level 1?"

Jake quickly pulled his hand back and then replied. "Yes, I am." Jake said walking off to begin his exercise.

"You do know you don't have to be shy or embarrassed about your power level right? I am also a low level, well not that low actually." Cindy said smiling.

"That's great." Jake said starting off with his push ups.

"So what weapon class are you going to choose today?" Cindy asked while doing squats.

"I was thinking swords." Jake replied already on his 28th push ups.

"Swords huh? That's nice." Cindy said. "I'm also planning to attend the swords class too."

"Really?" Jake said already on his 48th push ups.

"Yes." Cindy replied smiling. "Anyway it's nice talking to you. I need to go prepare for the day." Cindy said while packing her bags to leave.

Jake quickly stood up after completing his 50th push ups. "Cindy wait!" Jake called out to which Cindy turned around. "If you don't mind me asking, why are you gyming? Because to me, you are already in perfect shape." Jake said with his cheeks all flushed up after taking another look at Cindy's body.

Cindy just smiled at the question. "I know that I'm in perfect shape but I'm just exercising because I wanted to gain more strength so I can also fight against the werewolves. And I noticed I can't do that without gaining a little bit more strength so I decided to improve my physical strength."

Jake smiled and then he remembered something. "Hold on, you know my power level but I don't know yours."

"It's nothing much, My power level is 4.8 and I'm currently ranked number 15 in the school's combat rankings." Cindy said already opening the door to leave while leaving Jake stunned by her ranking.
