As the first thing in the morning, he chose to go hunting and killed a few monsters for his breakfast. The forest didn't contain any life-threatening monster. So, It was easy for him to handle alone. He hunted so deer type monsters for food since they were the surplus and majority of monsters living in that vicinity.
Finishing his breakfast he skimd through the book again. And peered through the pages about general abilities and found illustrations and postures to train with general abilities.
{Slash-Offensive attack}
Under the slash title, he found an illustration of a man using a posture to make a cut by using a sword step by step.
{Parry-DefensiveCounter attack}
He found another image with a man defending himself from getting attacked with his sword.
{Thrust-Counter attack}
Thrust can be used as both a counter and offensive attack and it contained illustration just like the other attacks.
"Damn Derek! You have published a light novel man! Thanks," He muttered.
He strolled out of the treehouse and began to slash his sword to train with Cut with his transford chains. He continued to slash continuously as the illustration stated for two hours without a break. He managed to swing it a hundred tis.
"For fuck sake! How many more tis should I have to swing?" He was frustrated and unable to repeat the sa thing. The sword type he used was a scimitar since he found it more comfortable than the other swords.
"Dammit, I have to do this! I shouldn't have second thoughts..."
"One, Two, Three, Four..." He began to flourish his sword again while counting every swing from the beginning.
'Thinking back all the sufferings I went through. I was about to die every fucking ti. Every single fucking ti! When I was in that siege I ran... I was on the edge of death... When I was in the desert I was again on the verge of death... Again it was the sa during my trip with Burning blood... Every fucking single ti I was only a single step away from the door of death! I can't be like that anymore. If I ought to uncover the mysteries. I have to fucking do this!' With those thoughts running in his mind, he gritted his teeth and continued brandishing his sword while being drenched by sweat.
"Two hundred and one, Two hundred and two, Two hundred and three..." He was frustrated but chose to continue counting as he swung.
'Am I doing this wrong?' With a doubt, he continued on with his practice.
After two hours of unresting training, his hands that were clutching the sword felt like they discovered sothing that wasn't discovered in his entire lifeti.
'I feel satisfied with this swing! Is this how it feels when I am about to obtain the ability? Four hundred and sixty-six!'
[General ability- Slash Has been obtained.]
His complexity brightened as soon as he set his eyes upon the ssage but, the next ssage shattered his will into pieces.
[Slash (Rank G)]
"Damned fucking system! Rank G? What's so good about learning this then?"
The chain reverted back to its original form and he was tired. Since he practiced for several hours. He ate the venison jerky as a snack and laid down on the moist ground while gazing up at the sky for several minutes.
"I wonder how much ti it will take for to improve my stats and abilities and its ranks... Arghh!" He scread as his muscles ached. He began to train drastically without raising his training schedule slowly which was the reason that made him get overly fatigued and face agony.
After a while, he resud his practice but, this ti he just used his chain instead of using it as a sword.
He twirled his chain once and it reflexively returned and hit him.
"Ouch! First and foremost I have to fucking make use of these chains and control its motion..."
He proceeded to twirl again and again even after getting injured in the process. After continuous and vigorous training another ssage popped up on the air.
[Unique ability-Twirl has been obtained]
[Twirl (Rank G)]
He chose twirl since he rembered doing sothing which caused a typhoon of fire in that temple.
"Hah Hah, I feel fucking good now... hmm, according to my unique weapon of choice, it manifested as a unique ability? Anyway, for an average person like . It takes four hundred to five hundred tis of continuous practice... I wonder how much it will take for prodigies like Nagendra and talented guys like Reegan. Fuck I am envious!"
"Arghh! Why am I feeling pain now?" He scread in agony as his muscles cramped.
His day was totally spent just on acquiring two abilities. Still, he ought to know how to increase his stats. His first day ended up just like that.
"Hah, This is my day two... I wonder if I am really working hard now? Should I increase my training ti? I need to figure out many things..."
He ate his al and went down to train just like yesterday.
"If I think back to the ti, where I was captured with the draconians...I made that sword pierce the air towards . I didn't put much thought into it... All I did was concentrate on it and It went drifting. Can I do it? Nah, first I should concentrate solely on the things I need to do."
He marched towards a tree and began to chop it and took the layer to use for his workout. Although it was hard and drained his enthusiasm to train a lot. He managed to finish it.
'Well, I didn't know that my half-ass talentless character which would ddle in every business would beco this useful,' He grinned at the thought.
He lived as an enthusiastic average geek with a dark perception during his peaceful days. He was not good in any field. He used to be just an average guy who tries to learn sothing and leave it after knowing just a bit about sothing. So cutting a tree and making tools were sothings he just basically knew theoretically after stumbling upon random videos on the internet but, he sohow managed to do it even if it was a ss.
He took a boulder stone and attached it with his chain and practiced lifting it.
He rotated the boulder which was connected to his chain. It resembled a mace. He rotated it like a mad lad continuously for a few minutes.
"Arghh for fuck sake! arghh!!!" He scread as his muscles cramped. He fell to the ground and squird like a worm.
He was not a professional in training either so, obviously, he would ss up while practicing. The posture he took to lift was bad which in turn cramped his muscle. He was almost experinting himself to find out what's good and what's bad using the hard way. He laid down on the ground for an hour to rest.
He was not able to learn parry since it was a defense ability he needed to continuously defend in order to obtain it as the ability. He decided to learn it later instead he trained his body to raise the stats and other things.
After so ti he began to train using his chain for hours until the next ssage appeared.
[Unique ability- Chain swing has been obtained]
[chain swing (Rank G)]
"I can create unique abilities on my own? If I train to parry with a ntal image of an imaginary opponent will it work out? Ight imma try it instead of thinking."
He decided to practice parrying for a while and to his surprise, it took a large amount of ti until the ssage he wanted to appear.
[General ability- Parry has been obtained]
[Parry (Rank G)]
"Cool, I gained three general abilities and two unique abilities in two days... If this pace goes on I might gain many more abilities...."
The moon glimred in the sky signifying that it was twilight before he could notice it. He took care of his body by eating food and taking rest as much as he can by taking breaks after a heavy workout as compensation for his hard work. He knew his body more than anyone else so he was very much keen on keeping himself healthy.
He continued to train for a week with the sa schedule and the abilities he gained raised to the rank F but the problem was with his stats.
They didn't rise at all. According to the normal customs of Empyrean, A person who rely entered Empyrean would gain stats as much as they sweat. In that sense, he should have gained so points but he didn't gain. He gained stat points for endurance twice as he endured sufferings but, his other stats didn't raise.
"Should I increase my schedule for training? Currently, I do six hours of work out per day although I pretty much waste like three and a half hours in it. Ignoring the fact that I also take breaks separately... Should I increase my schedule?"
Sure, he was working hard but only to a certain extent. The more he experinted himself the more he learned.
His tale was just about to begin even though he didn't know about it. He didn't care about the things that were about to befall him but, one thing is for sure. His path will be the hardest among any other Humans from earth. Yet, unknowingly he began to tread a new path on his own, unlike his past.
