Chapter 7: Chapter 7
I'm sitting on my bed, an ice pack on each leg and fist, I've been punching and kicking trees for quite a while and the result is better than I expected!
[Strong Fists] reached Level 19, leveling up 4 times!
Strong Legs] went to Level 33, another 2 Levels!
In exchange for these levels, my fists and legs are hurting like hell!
Even my [Player Body] isn't helping much, it has prevented fractures, bleeding, etc., even though my current HP is at half, the reason for the pain, if I get 100%, all the pain goes away.
But I don't want to do that, because with the pain, I can increase my [Pain Tolerance].
In other words, stop crying Juri and hold on!
...
The next day!
+2,500 XP, +250 Credits and some more boar materials!
Followed lunch, before heading to the Academy, unfortunately I don't find Ashelay, but I do find some hotties that I tend to invest in.
Arriving home, I just rest for a bit, before entering the Dungeon and getting back to punching and kicking the tree.
+3 Levels [Strong Legs] and +4 Levels [Strong Fists]!
I am left with only 1/3 of my HP, that hurts like hell, but it pays off, I know it does!
Then I spend the rest of the afternoon in agony before falling asleep and recovering the next day!
+2,500 XP, I reached Level 21 and... the XP went from 4,000 to 7,350!
That is, from Level 1 to 10, it was Level x 100 = XP; Level 11 to 20, it was Level x 200 = XP; now from Level 21 to 30, I think it's Level x 350 = XP!
If so, then from Level 31 to 40, it will be Level x 550? Which would be 17,050~22,000 XP...
I wonder how much Level 11, 21, 31 and so on Monsters give in XP, it must be a lot, but if it's just my Level x 10, it will still be good.
But well, after raising another Level, I continue my daily life much more willing, since the usual tiredness is gone!
And today at the gym I meet her, Ashelay, who was being instructed by an instructor today!
I smiled and greeted her, who smiled back at me, so I went to do my workout, in the process Ashelay comes over to talk to me a bit, thanking me for the tips and so on, I just smile and keep helping her in any way I can.
In the process of all this, I go to rest next to sweaty Ashelay, we chat a bit, until we finally exchange our numbers.
Then after a while, the day's training ends, I head home and today I received +1 Strength and Constitution.
But while I was returning home, I felt something strange, looking around, I soon realize something, I find 2 people...
[Agent of the ??? #83 - Level 18]
[Agent of the??? #128 - Level 22]
First time I see individuals with decimal levels besides me... that means some of their Attributes are around 171~180 and 211~220!
My highest right now is 40, my Constitution... I have to get out of here!
I take advantage that they are not looking at me and take my... way....
Bang!
Argh!
I end up bumping into someone in the process, where I end up falling to the ground, maybe because I'm tired, since I'm usually pretty steady!
"Oh, sorry, I didn't see you, are you okay?" - A calm, male voice enters my ears and I see a white hand in front of me.
I appreciate the kindness of the person and hold his hand, he pulls me up very quickly, showing that he is quite strong.
"Really excuse me, I didn't see you... uwo, you are beautiful!" - Said the man who is quite handsome, even a little effeminate in front of me.
"Eh, thank you and... sorry for my lack of attention, I thought I saw an acquaintance." - I say smiling and by chance my eyes spot his information and I cough!
[???? - Level 48]
I don't know who the fuck this monster is, but I don't want to interact with him but no fucking way!
"Well, I have to meet someone, thanks for the help and again I'm sorry for bumping into you!" - I say in some haste pretending to look at the clock.
The man looks confused but shrugs and I of course walk away.
But what I didn't know was that this man was smiling in a distorted way!
But I knew that he tried something with me, since walking away from him, I got this message:
[The "Player's Mind" Skill has been activated, successfully resisting the mental attack of a certain individual!]
I understand that man is not kind at all, I have to be careful from now on... I need to get stronger!
Arriving home, I take a look at the [Map] I own, allowing me to see individuals in the vicinity, many white dots, few blue ones and some orange ones, probably bandits or people with bad intentions heading in my direction.
But I didn't find that man while I was playing the balls on the map, I didn't find anyone above Level 4.
Sighing with relief, I soon enter the Dungeon, so what I do is quite simple, I start killing the Boars!
I force myself to kill 104 of them, getting 7,300 XP, plus one boar, and reach Level 22.
I'm pretty tired, but what I do next is punch and kick a tree until I run out of HP!
After this, being very tired and sore, but of course, I take due care, I eat a ready meal that I had, as well as some coffee.
I then leave the Dungeon, open a Level 1 Dungeon, where I kill 5 Rabbits and reach Level 22!
All my wounds are gone, I am recovered and full of energy!
Then I return to the Level 5 Dungeon, where I spend the rest of my time kicking and punching the tree, until my HP is 1/10!
I'm extremely weakened at this point, I'm shaking, but in return, [Strong Legs] has reached Level 40, [Strong Fists] Level 28.
But that's not enough, unfortunately there's not much I can do, no items drop except for materials.
But I think it will soon be time to get equipment, using my legs is not very efficient.
Meditation... I can try to start meditating...
Well, since I will be in agony of pain for some time, let's try meditation!
Obviously I can't make any progress, since I was unable to concentrate due to the pain and as a result lost about 2 hours!
But it helped me to get drowsy, so I fall asleep!
I wake up recovered as usual, stretch and enter the Dungeon, eat some of the prepared foods in the Inventory, which give some small Buff.
Then I spend hours killing 100 Boars!
I'm tired, but I recover that by eating and drinking, so I head to the Academy, all the while worrying looking at the [Map].
Nothing unusual apparently, so I stay 1 hour at the Academy, due to my obvious preoccupation, I don't flirt with any of the hotties.
I get +1 Agility, so I leave, where I decide to spend some time cooking!
Why cooking? Obviously because I have to prepare several "Potions", I'm going back to spending about 5~10 hours in the Dungeon, killing and upgrading!
Time to suffer!
