An unknown amount of ti later, Mikael woke up and was startled by the unfamiliar surroundings. 'Oh it's real for a second, I thought that the Records and all that was just a dream.'
Mikael spent the next hour doing this usual morning routine, of course, it wasn't exactly the sa but it wasn't far.
Mikael put on his clothes and attached his new handgun to his waist. He also fastened his scabbard, with his steel shortsword in it, to the left side of his waist so that he could easily draw his sword. He didn't forget to attach two magazines to his waist and put on his backpack, which had sandwiches and water.
'With all that, I'm ready to do so training and explore a new world.'
"System, Earth ti please."
[Earth Ti(USA): June 17, 2025, 04:28:22]
'4 AM, a little early to start the day but I don't think it really matters here. There doesn't seem to be a day-night cycle in the Records.'
'I'll get so training done before hopping into a world. This ti I should stay a little longer in a world because 2 worlds a day isn't a reasonable pace. In 5 hours, I don't have ti to learn anything in the world I just have ti to do so easily done quest.'
Mikael scanned his surroundings before saying "Records, how do I get out of my apartnt there doesn't seem to be a door?"
[Go near a wall while thinking you want to get out.]
"Ok, Thanks."
Mikael goes close to a wall while thinking 'I want to get out.' Suddenly, he saw a purple door appear. The door was giving a weird feeling like it was there and at the sa ti wasn't. He opened the door and was instantly teleported.
Mikael instantly appeared in the Hub.' So the door is a teleportation zone like the stairs that I climb each ti and that will teleport while I am going up.'
'I have an idea that could be really good but I don't know if I have enough LP.'
"Records, I would like a training session that will allow to learn a skill that will passively work like a 6th sense or a danger sense. My budget is of 200 LP."
[For 200 LP you can have a training session and after approximately 12 hours you will learn the desired skill.]
'Oh nice I can learn it in 12 hours, it's a really important skill so even if it would have taken multiple days I would still take the ti to learn it.'
'This skill is essential because it will allow to stay alive better than gaining stats will help .'
The next mont he started going up the stairs before saying "training room" and being teleported.
When he arrived he heard Kiara say "Mikael, you finally ca back. It's been a long ti without you."
He looked around and saw Kiara in the sa clothes as yesterday, just as beautiful as before. She had a big smile and was looking happy to see him.
"Yeah, it's nice to see you, but I have a quick question. Is it okay if I take a little of your ti?"
"Of course ask" Kiara answered cheerfully.
"It's not a big thing I just want to know how much ti has passed since we last trained together?"
"Easy it has been 15 hours, 33 minutes, and 15 seconds" she answered proudly.
This seemingly simple question was a little test for Kiara.'I had so suspicion that she's a yandere, and her answer and her answer just raised it to moderate suspicion.'
'She has done a couple of weird actions that individually an nothing but when put together they give so suspicion that she is maybe a yandere. First of all, she seemingly started to 'like ' for nothing. Second, she wanted to hug and when I accepted she sniffed , and the last one was the little test I'd just done.
'Maybe she is just doing her job as an AI by giving the ti or maybe she was counting the ti before I co back. Alone it ans nothing but when the three are put together there is, I say a 50/50 chance that she is a yandere.'
'I need to keep it in mind but for now, let's train.'
"Ok, thanks Kiara, are you ready to start my training?"
"Of course, but we will need to go outside at the obstacle course for this training."
As soon as Kiara finished speaking they walked outside into the forest where the obstacle course is.
"Last ti you used the wooden poles to train your footwork, but this ti the training goal is that you develop your 6th sense."
She handed him a blindfold before saying, "Put it on."
"Give a second, I'm putting my things on the ground" he spoke before placing all his things on the ground and only keeping his shirt and pants.
He then put on the blindfold and asked, "Okay, so what now?"
"Now you must do the obstacle course in the forest with the blindfold on. There will be traps but don't worry they're fake. Your objective will be to try to evade the trap using only your hearing and when you start to beco good you will put an ear plug so that you can train your 6th sense only."
"OK I'II start now."
He started doing the obstacle course while carefully listening to his surroundings.
Swish
When he heard a sound to his right, he imdiately looked in this direction while putting his arm to his right to block the object.
He felt a light impact on his arm but he continued jogging while thinking, 'Probably supposed to be a wooden log trap and if it was really this one it would have been better to just evade it.'
Soon, he felt the ground under his feet collapse, he tried to jump but without a ground to jump on it was useless. He fell like 2 feet before feeling pressure under his feet.
'This one is probably the spike in a hole trap, if it was real it could have been deadly because I don't think that my endurance stats are high enough to protect from a tal spike.'
'For now, it isn't important let's continue the training.'
In the next 3 hours, he progressively becos better. He was touched less ti and blocked the traps more often.
At the 4-hour mark, Kiara said to put on the ear plug and he listened. From that mont the training beca a lot harder. Mikael had the impression that all his progress was lost he was even worse than when he started.
When 6 hours had passed he decided to take a break and go eat while talking with Kiara.
Mikael walked back to where Kiara was and saw her sitting on the ground while looking at seemingly nothing.
"Eh Kiara, you're looking at what exactly?"
Kiara was visibly surprised but still answered "Oh that, I was just looking at your training footage."
Mikael took out a water bottle and so sandwiches and offered one to Kiara, saying, "Want one?"
"Yes, please! I would like to know what food tastes like," she answered excitedly.
Mikael was already eating his sandwich when Kiara took the sandwich and finished it even before him.
"Hmmm, really good. I like it !"
Mikael was slightly surprised by her over-the-top reaction and said, "They're pretty average, though."
Kiara had stars in her eyes after hearing this."For real? That ans I can eat even more delicious food."
"You can give other food pleasee?" She asked while making puppy eyes.
"Not this ti, but the next ti I co to the training room I can do you this little favor."
'I could buy her so food right now using my LP but if I do that she will less appreciate it. It would be better to wait so that she is more grateful to .'
Kiara was delighted by his answer and imdiately jumped in his arms while speaking "Thank you, you're really an angel."
Mikael was a little awkward with her reaction but he nonetheless answered by giving small taps on her back while saying "No problem I'm happy to help."
He stayed in the sa position for a couple of seconds but when he saw that she didn't look like she wanted to end the improvised hug he teased "You're really profiting of all opportunity to get a hug?"
At his words, she imdiately jumped out of the hug with a red face and started playing with her hair to mask her embarrassnt. "N-No I was just happy that all!" she rapidly justified.
Mikael just gave her a knowing smirk.
Kiara saw his smirk and rapidly tried to change the subject by speaking "Sooo how do you like your training for now?"
He understood what she was trying to do but still answered "Honestly it's hard but really rewarding, totally worth it."
"I just had a thought not related to the current subject but you're an AI right?"
"Yes I am what is called an artificial intelligence but I am more like a cyborg than a robot. In the sense that I have feelings and a personality, I am still capable of doing all the regular tasks that an AI can do. I can do it the sa or better!" She proudly answered while puffing her chest out.
Mikael eyes were montarily attracted by her moving mountains but he nearly instantly looked into her eyes before asking "So how does it work for the food you are eating? Can you digest it?"
"I don't 'digest' the food like you do with your biological body. My body is supplied with the magical energies it needs to work by a magical core located in my chest. The core automatically produces magical energies that will supply . The food I eat is transford into magical energies that will help operate but I don't have biological needs."
"Ok, thanks for answering. It was nice talking with you but I need to go back to the training."
Kiara was a little disappointed but still said "Ok good training."
Mikael gave her a small nod before going back to the obstacle course for the next hours.
In the first hour since the end of the break, he achieved the sa level he had at the start without the earplug but with the earplug, he was starting to feel the traps.
During the following hours, he continued to develop his 6th sense. By the ti it was the 11 Hours since he started training, he saw a notification appear.
[Your 6th Sense has reached the required level.]
[You have learned the skill: 6th Sense.]
[6th Sense Tier 0 Level 1 Skill
Description: This skill consists of the 6th sense of the user. This sense can give a gut feeling to the user and allow the user to perceive things that they normally shouldn't be capable of seeing(danger, energy, etc).
This skill potency varies depending on the skill level and the perception(Locked) stats of the user.]
[6th Sense Tier 0 Level 1 Skill: This skill can level up if the following conditions are t.
Your knowledge and experience in using your 6th sense need to reach the required threshold. Your actual progress is 0%
Pay 40 LP.]
'40 LP for leveling up the skill?'
'I rember that the Unard Martial Arts Mastery was 20 LP for a level up. So why does it cost more? It is because the 6th sense skill is harder to learn or it is because the skill is stronger?'
'I'll need to keep an eye on my skill leveling speed.'
'I still have 200 LP I could use like 100 to learn a swordsmanship skill. That would be useful, against the goblins I primarily used my knife and now that I have a good sword it would be better to use it.'
"Records I would like to train in swordsmanship with a teacher with peak human teaching ability. My budget is 100 so I would like to take 4 hours of training."
[Request accepted -100 LP]
[Necessary knowledge was transferred to the AI 'Kiara'. Your training ti has already started since you are in the training room.]
'Ok nice it was what is was thinking. It is the sa as the martial arts training so 25 LP per hour.'
Mikael didn't waste any more ti and imdiately started to run in the direction of Kiara.
Rapidly, he saw Kiara at the edge of the forest seemingly waiting for him.
"Do you want to start the training imdiately?"
Mikael was tired but still answered "Yeah it would be better, I have limited ti to train so I want to get the most out of it."
Kiara kept shifting from one foot to the other, incessantly twirling a strand of hair before speaking, "We have a small problem. If you want efficient training, you'll need to pay 20 LP to add a sword fighting area and so training swords."
"It would be better if you paid 40 LP so that I can have the sa stats as you. If we spar and you're more than three tis stronger than , it will be difficult for to teach you."
'I hope I won't bother him with all these purchases' she nervously thought.
'The Records are like a capitalist enterprise that wants to suck all your money.'
Sigh
"Records I accept the paynt."
[Transaction effectued -60 LP]
The instant the system notification appeared Kiara started looking like she was in pain. She gritted her teeth hard while clenching her fists to try to endure the pain.
Her skin started to beco red and at the sa ti, her body comnced to produce a cracking sound.
From this mont Kiara was no longer able to contain her pain and began to cry while falling on the ground.
Sob Sob "It hurt"
Mikael crouched next to her before rubbing her back and softly spoke "I know it hurt but it will pass and here for you try to think about other things than the pain."
Kiara vaguely heard his voice amid all her pain.'It hurts too much, it's like my whole body is breaking. Ahhhhh, I need to think about other things than my pain he said. I'm going to think of him!' she thought before tightly clinging to Mikael with all her strength while continuing to cry.
The situation stayed the sa for 5 minutes before her skin began to lose its red hue and returned to its original healthy white. The cracking sound that her body was making also stopped. The mont all this happened Kiara instantly fell asleep from the exhaustion.
