When I was being hit with a belt by my father, I thought I had a resistance toward pain.
When I slid my skin on mud and grazed my elbow, I thought I was tolerant because I didn't cry.
The only time I cried was when I felt anger for being unfairly treated by my family.
No wonder I always chose the option to run in my dream instead of confronting the enemy. Dying is too scary, pain is scary.
My life flash ended there as I slowly opened my eyes only to see the man shimmering under the sun smiling at me brightly.
Although his figure was as bloody as it was due to the blood from orc splashing, he looked so ever-bright.
'The orc!' realization came upon me as I checked my surroundings only to find out the orc's body was cut into many pieces.
"Hero-sama! Have you come and save me?" the woman whom I thought ran off using me as a decoy, returned in place.
'I'm pretty sure that I have no masochist side that I would imagine a girl running in a dire situation... But more than that... I survived.' a day never feel so refreshing, the wound was slowly recovering in visible eyes.
[Clairvoyance has leveled up from Lv: 1 -> Lv: 7]
[You have leveled up to level 3!]
"Ah no... I came here to save that man... There?" the boy shining brightly pointed at me with his slender finger.
"Ahh! Is that so, well, well, I would like to reward you for saving me right now but currently, I have nothing in me. I know it is trouble for you but would you follow me back to my kingdom?"
'Did she just ignore everything he said?'
"I'd like to go with you but I have to accompany this man until safety." the man gently refused the girl's proposal.
"No need for it, thank you for helping me before, but instead of bringing me back to a safe point, you deserve a reward for helping a princess. My injuries are almost healed up so go with her." as I said to the shining boy, through my [Clairvoyance], I saw the girl's expression change.
When she heard the hero-like person refuses her proposal, she glared at me like an enraged beast and instantly concealed it.
Out of goodwill, I said to the shining man. "She's a little strange. It won't harm you to be careful of around her."
After passing him, I whispered to him in hope that she won't hear it.
From behind, I saw the girl socially interacting with the shining man and felt my jealousy swelling up. Her personality aside, her long blonde hair that naturally flew down ot her back and a face that contained purity could make one mistake for her as a saintess.
"Hero-sama, I apologize for my lack of introduction. I'm Llena Nefia. The daughter of the 12th king of Midom Kingdom, Opik Nefia."
"It may be rude to suddenly ask for your help but, my kingdom is being attacked from inside by a strange called 'Resistance.' I want you to help us solve this problem together... I only have you."
'Llena was it? Her personality aside, from her expression, she seems to be genuinely thinking of her own country.' I thought inwardly.
But this time, instead of barging in between them, I quietly ran off. 'Your kingdom is your problem, not mine. Nevertheless, I wasn't asked for help, and even if I was asked I doubt I can do anything.'
More than that, my chest still stung. Perhaps it's because it's healing, I am feeling a pain similar to the one when I dip in alcohol to my injuries.
It doesn't feel good and even now, I want to lay down in a comfy bed to rest my worn-out body
Fortunately, with my [Clairvoyance], I saw a nearby village not too far from here. There are a few monsters on the way road but my detection ability is way above them, more so that my skill leveled up a few times.
If I am careful, I think I can avoid being aggroed by them.
However, first, I tried shouting 'stats' in my mind. I regretted skipping tutorials because I don't know what I can do. Only by experiencing how easily I can lose my life did I know that this world isn't as easy as how the manga showed isekai.
My stats thankfully appeared; the first one which came was my name.
[...] Lv: 3 Class: NEET
= Basic Stats =
Undistributed Stats Points: 9 -> 0
Strength [STR]: 7
Agility [AGI]: 7 -> 16
Intelligence [INT]: 7
= Hidden Attributes =
Luck: 7...
Sense: 8
= Equipment =
Torso: White T-Shirt.
Legging: Shorts.
Foot: None.
= Skill =
Passive Skills: 1/10
Active Skills: 1/5
Skill Tree: 0/2
[Prothor...] Unique
...
Increase the luck attribute by 2.
[Clairvoyance] Passive/Active Lvl: 7/75
...
Increase the sense attribute by 3
'When I first got this skill, it didn't mention the increases in attributes.' I thought.
Perhaps it is because the [Sense] & [Luck] attributes increased, the hidden stats turned out to be not-so-hidden.
I also quickly thought of how I want to fight in the future and distributed my allocatable stats point all to agility.
[For the player ... only, the system has made an 'evaluation system.' Please take a look at it.]
It was a me-made system. I felt slightly happy as I mentally clicked on it. It was convenient because this system interface didn't hinder my view but I could see it.
= Evaluation =
Horrible, absolutely vile, nightmarish, unpleasant odious character.
Instead of breathing, wasting the oxygen of this world, the player ... should just die.
Attention-seeking, love-seeking, shameful, greedy creature.
Perhaps due to the lack of attention, the player received before, the player would mindlessly seek every ounce of attention he can get, even if such action he takes may risk his life.
Perhaps due to the lack of love it received from its mother, its friend, and the girl around him, it is sensitive to others' affection to others yet dense to the affection for itself.
The player seems to be trying to change himself to be able to receive more attention and more love than he couldn't receive in his previous world but he is too lazy and shameful.
If he was to make a promise to run a long distance every day, he would break that promise after a week.
The player also hates conflicts and would stand on neutral sides but this isn't because he has a gentle/kind personality but because he is a coward and he knows he would lose every single time if he ever gets into a conflict.
Adv….
= = =
I quickly turned it off. Anyone wouldn't feel good if someone is talking about themselves. What makes it more frustrating is that the evaluation system is right on the spot.
"For now, let's get to the nearest town and quietly, slowly live in that town for the rest of my life," I murmured to myself.
