Chapter 14

Body strengthening 

When Sky opened his eyes the next day, he noticed that the sun was beaming directly on him, making it impossible for him to see.

The sun's rays had been glaring directly into his eyes due to the fact that he had neglected to draw the curtains that covered his windows yesterday before he slept.

He rose up while covering his face with his hands as he took a few steps forward.

Sky cried with elation, "It's a fresh new day," and he could not wait to experiment with other components of the system.

The fact that he was worn out was the only thing that allowed him to fall asleep the night before; otherwise, he would not have done so.

Before entering the room, Sky gave his face a quick wash in the basin in the bathroom and brushed his teeth.

"System!!"

A cold mechanical voice answered "

【Good morning, user】

When Sky heard the icy, robotic voice coming from the system,he was overjoyed, he had shouted for the system to make sure everything that happened yesterday wasn't a dream

"It's not a dream"

He was in such a nice mood right now that he felt as though he could give the system a big embrace if it had a body.

"System, starts todays 

【mission: body strengthening.

Status: in progress.

Time:06:00:00】

【If the user is unable to successfully complete the mission within the given amount of time, they will be forcefull sent to the training site, and will not be able to return, untill when mission is completed】

Sky felt a shudder run through his body as she reflected on the events that took place the day before at the training site.

"Since I'm free to choose how I want to strengthen my body, I think my personal gym should be sufficient, work out is also a good way of strengthening the body"

"But how exactly am I supposed to maintain tabs on how far I've progressed in the mission?"

It was necessary for him to be aware of whether or not he was actually progressing or not durung the mission

"System, how exactly am I supposed to determine how far I've progressed on this mission?

【There is no progress report for the mission】

"How am I expected to know that the mission is complete once I've completed it?"

【The system would decide whether user has vompleted the mission or not】

"I knew it was going to be the system, damm, why didn't the person who programmed this damm system add in a criteria for completing missions? With this masochistic system, I'm probably going to work myself to death." 

Sky got ready for the workout and started walking in the direction of the gym. he was excited to get started. he was well aware that his regular workouts were the most effective way to improve the strenghts of his body.

Squats were the next work out he did after he warmed up his muscles with a series of different stretching exercises. It had been an hour since he had started his routine, but he still hadn't received any notifications from the system. He checked the time using. his phone.

After squats, he moved on to running on the treadmill, which he continued to do for almost an hour before moving on to the weight lifting portion of his workout.

After having worked out for two hours, he was fatigued and desired a break from the routine. 

Other people certainly would have been exhausted and bored, especially considering the fact that he was the only one there. However, he had always been a conscientious worker.

Due his relatively low strength, he needed to improve his overall physical prowess; as a result, it was not uncommon for Sky to spend a significant amount of time at his gym, engaging in various forms of exercise.

"System, can you please verify if i have successfully completed the mission?"

【No, user has not completed the mission】

Sky couldn't help but mutter an expletive at the system, "Damn you,"

 he had been exercising for more than four hours at this time, but it was still not enough for the system. Despite his all his efforts it still wanted more.

Since he had less than two hours remaining to complete the task, and since he didn't want to fail and be hauled back to the training area, he hastily set down the bottle of water he had been drinking and began his workout once again.

He continued to work out nonstop for the subsequent 1 hour and 30 minutes, but during that period he did not receive any notifications from the system despite the fact that he was constantly working out with no rest.

He repeatedly inquired from the system as to whether or not he had accomplished the mission, but each time, it replied with an impersonal negative. It did not make much sense to him, this was the gratest work out he had ever done, but i was still noe enough.

, "Damn, this f*cking system is going to kill me!"

It was hard for him to keep from criticizing the system; his entire body was saturated in sweat, and he had absolutely no energy left to spare; all he wanted was for this mission to be finished.

Even after he repeated his request, the computer continued to give him a negative response.

He  worked right up to the very last second; hence, Sky was already prepared to be carried to the training site, since he had not completed the mission;  the most serious problem for him right now was the fact that he was completely exhausted.

"Sytem, I am aware that you are doing this on purpose, and all you want is for me to pass away while I am at that training place," 

just when the time remaining for the mission was about to elapse, Sky stopped working out and instead sat down to regain some of his power before being sent to the training site for a second time to complete the mission.

exactly one second before, the missions's countdown would turn to zero,then an emotionless voice began talking in his head

【The user has completed the mission successfully, and as a result, they have been given two reward, first reward: DP points and one opportunity to roll a die.】

Sky was elated after hearing the news, his  body was in such horrible condition that he couldn't help but think that if he had come across those black mokey spiders, he would have most certainly perished. This was the very first time in Sky's entire life thatvhe was fully prepared to die, with his body he knew he had no fighting chance, but thank God all that fidnt happen

"It is highly likely that the damm system will be the reason for my passing at some point in the distant future"

Sky pressed a button on the computer to bring up the blue screen, and she took a quick glimpse at the message that was shown on it. While he was staring at the message, he could help but notice he had beeen rewarded another DP point once again.

Yesterday, he saw Dp points in his status bar, but he didn't really understand what it meant at the time, so he didn't do anything about it.

"System what is devouring points DP"

【devouring points DP are points gotten from completing misssions, and user can increase the value of the parameters on the status bar using DP points】

Sky went through the process of reviewing the data that was provided by the system about DP points, aftwr some time of thinking he finally understood it use.

 "Do you mean that I can increase the number of parameters like  strength, speed, or sense?"

【Yes】

As soon as Sky was exposed to the information, he was immediately excited.

"Status"

Sky gave his status a cursory examination, and sure enough, the computer had bestowed upon him five further devouring poins, bringing the sum amount of his devouring points to ten.

He played around with the status bar to see if there was any way he could boost his strength by making use of his DP points, and to his amazement, he was successful.

He felt a warm sensation rushing through his entire body as he increased his strength, and he could feel how his body was changing little by little. He could also feel how his strength was increasing. In the end, all of the DP points that he had were used toward improving his strength.

After that, he uttered the word "Status," and immediately after that, a blue screen emerged in front of him that revealed his status bar.

The strength indicator had achieved its new high of 20, and the DP points had plummeted all the way down to 0.

Sky was able to pick up on the shifts that had taken place in his body within a short period of time and react appropriately. It appeared as though he had gained some weight, and the previously feminine aspects of his physique, such as his hands, now revealed signs of muscle development. He appeared to have become more masculine.

After that, he continued to perform a weightlifting exercise in an effort to gauge how much his strength had increased.

As soon as he made the discovery, he was taken aback by the fact that his hands had become so powerful that the weights in the dumbbells appeared to be hardly any weight at all.

He was so strong that he could even carry the weights he had lifted before using two hands with just one hand.

Sky laughed and remarked, "Hahahaha… with my current strength, there is no doubt in my mind that I could compete with a 2 star Knight now."

Sky couldn't help but think back on how the other Knights always made fun of him since they thought he was the weakest being that ever lived.some of them would even go as far as calling him the Knights order's disgarce,asking for him to be relieved of his duty.

"I can't help but wonder what each one of them would say if they saw me now, i guess they would probably shit in their pants"

He continued to test his strenght as he jested.

Sky gave the punching dummy that he frequently uses for training a try, and he was able to smash the head off of it with only one hit.

Following all of that yelling and rhe intense work out he had just done he had no choice but to go to bed early.

Even though he was stronger now, there was still a touch of weariness in his body because of all of the training he had been doing, which left him exhausted, and completely out od strenght.

He pulled out the blue screen once more and reviewed the second reward, which was an opportunity to roll a dice, though hevhad not rolled a dice before using the system, he was happy to do so because the system hd tild him that rolling a dice gave an extra reward.

He recalled that the system had informed him the previous day that the only way for him to enable the dice function was for him to complete today's mission. H

"I cant believe i almost forgo that"

He had been so occupied, by the idea of increasing his strenght using DP points that he had forgotten about the second reward.

"System has the rolling dice funtion been unlocked?"
