A Second Chance in Time THE start of childhood training
“Yes, yes, now, can we begin training?” “Sure, sure, though you seem ruder than usual, are you in a bad mood?” “No, but I’m in a sort of tight spot with the possibility of dying” “Imagination in children sure is bright” ‘He doesn’t seem like lying and that glint of intelligence in his eyes, Mark has changed. Before, he was just emotionless with a glint that was weaker, and now it got stronger. This change is so sudden that I’m not even sure that I’m standing before my own son.’ ‘There is also a desperation and a will so strong that it can’t be hidden from even Maria. Mark is not normal, that’s all I can say, but meh, let’s not stress about the present, he will tell us what he wishes to, when he wishes to know.’ “We have come to a place where we will be running.” “But dad, this is a forest.” “Because this is a forest that we will be running here, running on an uneven terrain is more difficult and consumes more stamina and strength, so this place excellent for runn
A Second Chance in Time Dear Diary,... 1
After I opened my diary, I start writing August 13, my sixth birthday I am very tall for someone my age, so some even call me a ten-year-old Turns out the ‘Blessing of fortune’ that the system or Rex spoke of, I don’t remember, influences both parents to do 2 decisions that will make life better for the family. The company that my parents own, “Lochem Industries”, is the proof of that, though apparently, it’s only in the top 5 of the biggest change someone has received. I went do the doctor last month and when she touched me, she was surprised how hard I was so she did a check and look and behold. My muscles are 7 times denser than the average adult, my bones are 5x and my skin, while remaining as flexible, is 3x tougher than the average adult male. ‘You’re gifted with a powerful body, you should become a policeman or a firefighter’, she said, but no way in hell am I listening to this. My accomplishments: -One and a half year ago I started learning the guitar and the piano at

‘System, remind me again, why do you not list it as a skill?’[Because it lacks that something that other skills possess, I do not know what it lacks, I only know that it lacks that thing.]‘Yeah, if not for that restriction where you only tell me what I am allowed to know and you don’t get access yourself to the information that I can’t know is pretty annoying.[It is what it is, now deal with it yourself, get stronger, get more authority and you will get a higher access, all you have access to is the very basics][Though don’t get attached to me as I will be deleted and replaced by the basic system everyone has]‘Really!?Moving on, time to get out of bed, it is now 5.50, so it’s almost time for the morning training’‘I quickly change and greet my dad with a simple hello and after we leave our house, we immediately start running.This time we are going with half of my speed, plus 5 kg weight on all my limbs, plus I’m the one carrying water, so it’s an extra 3kg of water resulting in
A Second Chance in Time The secret is leaked
Fun fact, when my doctor did a scan of my heart, all he said ‘was what the fuck am I looking at’ and then he was shouted at by my mom for cursing in front of me, but later he explained the reason for that kind of explanation. My heart was so strong, that it only belonged to professional runners and the like. A/N: His stats are measured from the perspective of an avg. adult male. I say ‘male’ because female and male physiques are innately different. Also, this is before any mana, I must point it out since some call mc OP, but that is not the case, further explanation will be provided as you read, same for skills, they are ranked based on the current world state, meaning with extremely little mana, as such max power of a skill is really low. My parents’ business continued to expand and now it contains cars, motorcycles, clothes, shoes, clocks and streaming, plus they are expanding into the gaming industry as my father sees immense profit in it. But he always says ‘Don’t play computer
A Second Chance in Time New experiences
The answer is the ‘level decrease pills’.The system said to take them at least 1 week apart, thus I consumed them in 2.5 months.The reason for that is ‘If you take your pills all at once, you will harm your soul and body permanently and at worst, you will be stuck at -10 forever, your only hope being a treatment of a god of healing’I didn’t want to wait till I got that treatment, as Anar’aya might help, but I have no trust in her.On another note, the blessing she gave me is almost unsealed, the only sealed effect is the stat related one, as usual, but I don’t use it at all.Now, time to dip in my bath“So you’re really are taking a dip in an ice bath, though where is the sauna you speak of.”“Oh, hi mom”“You’re calmer than I thought, I remember your dad’s mom saying how Peter was extremely embarrassed whenever she walked in on him being naked”I saw my dad sneaking up on her and then he touched her back“Kyaaa, Peter, what are you doing!?” “Sneaking up on my wife, do you have a
A Second Chance in Time School x monologue
‘I forgot the pain of being amongst complete toddlers in school.When my parents asked me if I wanted to go to school, I immediately agreed as I wished to leave the hell called kindergarten.They rejoiced, but now, as I went to school, I noticed that it got barely better.It was noisy as hell and the only reason I could relax is that I made these sound canceling headphones, so nobody could interrupt me.My homeroom teacher tried to confiscate these, but every time she tried to take them away, I dodged and her threats of calling my parents and putting bad grades in my semester didn’t help.Later she stopped, seeing as I only got the top grades in everything and then she asked me to look like a model student, but I refused, even if she offered to buy me candy or whatever else as a bunch of brats complained that I cheated.She tried to calm everyone down and all it ended in was me being completely isolated, I’m happy with the

‘The other artefacts are: ‘A book that contains knowledge on poisons and how to utilize them, if I fully comprehend the book, I will get an intermediate talent in poisons and ways to use poisons to get poison immunity plus ways to permanently boost myself through poisons.’ ‘A necklace that will increase the talent/class related skill development by 70%, but only for a month, after that it will break.’ ‘A booklet that acts as a half grimoire, meaning I can store spells in there and use whatever energy I wish to cast them, instantaneously, but it’s half because the spells will be weakened. That’s OP, because I could use aura to cast magic and the best part is that it never leaves my side and I can transform it into a bracelet and still receive its benefits. And it allows silent cast, but only if I could use it with the spell myself.’ ‘Though the booklet is the furthest away as it is in America and my parents will go there only once I’m 11 as they fear that I will get lost easily i
A Second Chance in Time Hard Skin
After that we went over to our training room, where he did skin hardening exercises.We both beat ourselves up in different ways that didn’t give us damage, but it still worked, the proof of that is my ‘Hard Skin’ skill.It essentially hardens my skin, though while doing hardness training, I deactivate this skill as it might slow down my training.The training itself is painful, though we don’t show it, especially while mom is here.She thinks that we’re lightly hitting ourselves with the tools we use, which primarily consist, currently, of bats with sandpaper tops, uneven steel rods, and the floor is steel with random bits that pop out in random places and stones are thrown all over the floor.The rooms temperature is 45 degrees.Dad says ‘The forge is far hotter than this and I kinda believe his as I’ve never been to one.I did some research and turns out that what he said is false assuming

A leisurely 'hike'
I know the perfect skills to pick, ‘Combustion’ and ‘Mana-kinesis’I had both of these skills, though I ignored ‘Mana-kinesis’ and it only got to D rank, because it requires a bunch of theoretical knowledge to make 100% use of ‘Mana-kinesis’.Though this time, since I’ll waste less time on useless things like exploring and searching for hidden encounters and the like, I can focus on learning about ‘Fusion’ more and making it more usefulBut ‘Combustion’, on the other hand is a skill I really, really, REALLY liked, in fact it was one of my most favorite skills and I was the first to take to S+ rank, though that was at the end of my life.‘Combustion’ is really versatile, since it’s description at G rank quite literaly is ‘When combustion is used on a particular area/item/material, it makes said thing combust’And for others it turns further on

Poor beard 3
Though he pushed me back…Not surprising, we’re talking about a potentially 3-ton tiger here, missing a leg and a wing doesn’t make this any lighter, thou his skin is getting lighter.And after that we started exchanging blows, I traded my axe with a corroding edge’s attacks for a bunch of air slashed and a claw that is thicker than my 3 fingers.And we started to fight on the ground, but in the sky on air.And slowly I understood one thing, I have a plan which is called 2 for 1, aka, I give you 1 really good wound and you have a chance to leave 2 lighter wounds one me.By this time all the pebbles stuck to the tiger, specifically his core and to not waste mana I tied them with a mana wire.I also started to give some of my attention on trying to cut of the damn cat’s tail.So I started to slowly make an earth blade, no hilt, just the blade and heat it up, though just by a bit, to make shaping easier.

Dueling against a beast 1
My first fighting scene, I was really excited to write it, but I had to redo it twice since it either became too short or too monotonous, even if you think this is bad, trust me, it could be far worse.Either way, wish you a wonderful and productive day.-----------------This means that the morning dew flower bloomed for the third time, I must be lucky.A dew flower has a low chance to produce a singular dew berry, which will mature by the first bloom, will be over-ripe by the second bloom and fully rotten by the third bloom.I also took this berry; I have some people that I must kill in order to make sure that Earth remains fully livableThere was a couple of psycho crazies who decided to make an extremely potent poison and they succeeded alright, but then they spilled the poison by accident and thus a third of Earth became unlivable for 2k years.They won’t be in this zone, but I can find them in Chine, so guess I’ll tr

[Congratulations, you have acquired the ‘Physical force’ stat] … Ok… What in God’s name is this? … I’ve heard of ‘Physical aura’ and ‘Physical might’s lord’, but those are a skill and title Either way, SYSTEM, what’s ‘Physical force’ [Physical force: It is the representation of your body’s might, how capable it is and such. It includes strength, agility, stamina, flexibility, resilience, physical regeneration and so on of the physical body.] [Physical force also represents how well you can use your body and how well balanced it is, but these aspects are much more minor and it won’t affect said minor aspects a lot, even if ‘Physical force’ is in it’s 10k+] That’s cool, I guess I mean now I won’t have to bother assigning each individual stat point to each stat, so that saves a lot, how high is ‘Physical force’ [Absorbing ‘Dexterous body’, ‘Regeneration’, ‘Hard skin’, ‘Hard body’] [Congratulations, you receive a 64 stat point increase in ‘Physical force’] [The allowance to ab

Power-up
THIS IS IMPORTANT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!I officially edited a chap before on this, but I will write it for those that either reach this chap before the other chap's edit: current MC stats are based on an avg. males before mana was introduced, same for skills, meaning the fireball skill is so high ranking becuase the max possible output is just that low.I've prepared plans to slowly point this out, but in webnovel I've faced a coment regarding this, so since I don't want you to think that this is a half-assed novel, I will say this for now. Thank you for reading this message and have a fun time reading. A/N ends<A time skip that is far too long than it should be>1 day left till the start of “The First Mana Wave”On that day a huge wave of mana will sweep the world and those that can’t hold out or have absolutely zero affinity for mana will mutate.I know this not only because I’m a regressor but also due to the fact

First official lesson
First, you make a box big enough to house the thing that you wish to cast plus a few centimeters to the sides, then you put in the thing that will hold the cast while it cools down and when you pour it.Then you do the same thing with the other half of the box or you fill half of the box.The next step is to carve the mold, weather it is by hand or just pressing a plastic, wax or a cast made of any other material into the sand, if the box is split in two, you can remove the cast, but if it’s one, then leave the cast, but make sure it is made of a material that burn really well and really quick.Then, if the box is separated in two, then you put it together and don’t forget to make a couple of wholes where you will pour in the metal.And then you take your molten metal and pour it.This time I used a wooden box and clay, plus a foam cast.My cast turned out unsuccessful, because the metal didn’t completely fill in a corner,
