While Evan was bewildered, the call was picked up on the other end.
"Hello, Sir, what problem do you...Oh, Evan, it's you. Did you encounter another criminal?"
"Uncle Max, I got on hands with another couple of thieves."
"Another...Are you alright? Were you hard?" A panicked voice ca from the other side.
"I am alright. These guys are just so petty thieves. They seed to steal quite secretly," Evan spoke with a smile.
Evan's sharp eyes noticed the guy nad Paul, who was being held by the three muscular n was taking the opportunity to pull out their wallets while they were distracted in flattering the woman.
However, much to their misfortune, Evan had already started his phone cara and recorded everything that was transpiring.
The police on the other side, who seed to be friendly with Evan sighed in relief, "Thank God, I am always troubled by the fact that you always encounter so many bad people. Be careful, okay? And don't act like a bounty hunter and risk your life.
"And about that feud with their actress. Don't worry, I believe in you, but be careful of these plastic beauties. Nowadays, those girls will use any ans possible to use others as stepping stones."
"Will do."
Evan smiled and didn't say much.
"I am sending you a clip. You can do as you see fit," Evan said, exchanging a few pleasantries before ending the call.
Three years ago, when he was returning late at night, Evan saw a burglary and reported it to the police. The thieves were wanted criminals with a bounty of 20K Rs.
After that, he was awarded the sum, and later on, the guy began looking for criminals to earn so money and had successfully reported nine criminals so far.
Max, the police he had called just now and the nearby departnts were quite fond of him for his help.
Ignoring that, he was really surprised by these people.
'Seriously…None…'
'Is this really the aning of useless or trash…They don't even have basic cooking skills or study skills.'
[Hidden Quest]
[You have encountered a petty thief disguised as an influencer. Punish them and bring the truth to light by exposing them in public.]
[Reward: 200 QP]
"Not interested."
Without hesitating for even a mont, Evan walked away, ignoring the screen
[Why? You could garner the praise and attention of many people and build a righteous image. If you don't accept, you will have a pena....]
"I don't care," Evan cut off the system words.
"If you want to impose a penalty, go ahead."
Evan's eyes had already beco dark and cold.
"I will not accept any quest that I feel isn't worth my ti. I have done what I need to do. No more."
"Good deeds are rewards but if you are too kind and righteous, people will take you as a pushover."
"Unless I have an enmity with soone or that person is in my path, there is no need for to destroy the person by going out of my way to destroy them."
Evan then ignored the system and returned ho.
In the na of dinner, he prepared two scrambled eggs that he stuffed into a taco. It was a low-cost yet satisfying al for him.

The next day, he tidied himself and after finishing the work of our routine, made his way to Knox Technical University.
With less than three months to graduate, the students were already left free to do what they wanted.
For those who had seriously devoted themselves to preparing for the final thesis and for others with no worries, it was the sa fun ti every day.
Evan made his way to the library.
On his way, he used insight skills.
He saw nurous skills like Beginner Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry, Comrce…
It seed like every subject was a skill in itself…
He didn't know how many things could be classified as skills, how many he could attain in his lifeti or whether the skills he worked hard to acquire would even be useful.
Shaking his head, he focused on his goals.,
To test his extre Comprehension Skill, Evan picked a programming book that started from basic.
In the four years, they had to learn Python, C , Go, Java, and a few other programming languages. Sadly, Evan was weak in everything and he couldn't even rember many basic things like prompts and commands.
The mont he was given a complex code, he would fail miserably.
He took a book and had hardly turned a few pages when a chi resounded in his head.
[Beginner Academic Skill, experience value 1]
Evan rubbed his eyes for a mont.
'Is this effect of Extre Comprehension ? This is too profound, but why do I get experience in Academic Skills instead of programming?' he wondered, noticing the bar of the Academic Skill having 1 out of 100.
[Host, Academic Skills are the abilities, strategies and habits that can help learners succeed in an academic setting. You didn't have any because your way of studying is riddled with flaws. A person should understand the essence and grasp the core concept of the subject.]
[You started late and don't even understand the basics. Without anyone to teach you and help you and instead of understanding or comprehending things, you tried to morize them. Hence, even if your mory might be quite good, sadly, you never understood anything deeply.]
[Whether it's physics, mathematics, or any other scientific thinking, you never grasped any principles.]
"In my haste, I beca a waste," Evan murmured gloomily.
[It's not your fault. With extre compression, you can still make up for what you have lost.]
"Huh! You seem to be quite polite," Even couldn't help but remark, surprised by the system's kind words.
[You are wrong. The system always speaks the truth. Sotis, it may be harsh for others to understand.]
"Okay, now don't disturb ," Evan said, focusing on the books in front of him.
Today, he was planning to squeeze as much knowledge as possible from the book.
[Beginner Academic Skill, experience value 1]

[Beginner academic skill, experience value 1]
The clock ticked on and so did Evan's skills.
It wasn't because he was a genius, rather, every person who studies accumulates knowledge, but Evan was a bit faster because his brain had been clocked to work at maximum capacity.
Chis continued to ring in his head again and again, but Evan was too engrossed to notice or see this and was unaware of the chaos caused by him.
"Huh, what is that guy doing?"
"Is he searching for sothing or what? Look at the speed he is skimming."
The people in the library heard the crisp sound of pages turning rapidly with one another and saw a young man.
A few even recognized him.
"Isn't he the fallen frontier who managed to get into TV?"
"Yeah, he is. The frontbencher who pretends to study hard but barely manages to pass."
"Co let's greet him and see if he rembers us now that he's popular."
With a sinister smile, the group of three walked toward Evan, akin to a group of kids seeking entertainnt.
