Raikou had no time to think about the peculiar hidden requirement. His whole body was filled with energy, he attacked the men with his fists and the leader was sent flying back with one blow.
"How did I do that..." he muttered. Unbeknownst to him, the sudden increase of his cultivation gave him strength exceeding his levels temporarily.
The henchmen looked at Raikou with gazes filled with fear and shock. The leader and his men got up and ran fearful of Raikou's strength. Raikou didn't chase after them because his mother was with him and he didn't want to risk her getting injured.
"Raikou... how?"
"I don't know Mother, I was suddenly filled with power after seeing you in danger" Raikou pretended to be unaware of how he got his powers. He knows how these secrets can be a danger to those who know them. Luckily, his mother was unwilling to push further on the matter, as she herself didn't have much knowledge on cultivation.
After returning to the church, Raikou sat up on his bed and decided to inspect his stats.

"..."
Raikou was shocked when he looked at his stats. All of his stats had gone up drastically.
"It's probably from all the energy that I absorbed in the past 2 years. Why is my charm still at five. DOES THE SYSTEM NOT UNDERSTAND HOW SEXY I AM!"
"Hehe, atleast now I can cultivate. I can protect my mother from all the shitty people of this world. ALSO, I can finally show off my powers to others. I never understood why those characters pretended to be weak, FUCK THAT. I'M GOING TO SHOW ALL THE ARROGANT YOUNG MASTER WHO'S THEIR DADDY!"
After all the adrenaline had ran out, Raikou's whole body began to ache. His body was continuously spasming with an enormous stress being placed on the muscles of his upper body especially his arms.
"What is this. AHHHHH, IT FUCKING HURTS." he screamed as he flopped back in his bed.
The temporary boost of strength placed too much stress on his body. "I need to put my dexterity up, it relates to the flexibility of my muscles. FUCK, THERE SHOULD BE A TOUGHNESS STAT. Shitty system, giving me incomplete stats."
"... Master, the system was your wish. This has been catered to your inner thoughts, if anything, it's your fault. Hehe."
Did my own system laugh at me. Shitty system.
Raikou decided to force himself to sleep, while trying his best to ignore the pain in his body. He hoped that the pain would've subsided by the morning, as they don't have any type of healing elixirs or potions in the church.
"Tomorrow will be my first day of being a true MC!"
