Even though Nait said that to Number 44. Being able to meet his eating requirements, and eating an old man, is very difficult.
Nait returned and reassured the Old man that everything would be fine and that he would do his best.
"Young man, I really don't need your help." An Old man said with a sad expression and coughed.
"No, you should rest here and I will just do my job." Nait took the pick from the ground and began digging.
Digging... digging... until his palm became swollen, but he didn't feel any pain. "The [Damage Resistance] skill seems to be very effective. I don't feel pain. The only problem is the [Cell Development] skill, which is permanently activated and causes me to die if I'm careless."
"Anyway, I have to keep going."
Nait began mining and collecting blue colored mana gems. Until he achieved his desired trouble.
[System]
[You have fulfilled your ability requirements and acquired a skill]
[Muscle effort]
[Permanently increase strength +5]
[Description: Your muscles have been torn many times from too much work. So you did your ability.]
Nait looked at the system board with his eyes twinkling. 'The skill [Muscle Effort] seems to be very useful. An increase in strength? So there are features like the game here, why didn't I notice that?.' Of course not noticed. Since the beginning of his transition to this world he has been busy saving himself. Now he had time to look around and breathe a little air.
'How do I know the properties? If there are characteristics, then there is a status. How do I show it? Shall I say a status?' When Nait thought about it, he said "Status" in a soft voice.
Thus, the system window pops up on its interface.

'Oh very good. But ???? Where is your noble strength, body? Isn't this the body of a powerful family? I feel like I was ripped off in a lottery. I have the ability {Note}. It is not strange how it works, so I will become stronger with it." Nait looked at the system window as he continued digging.
From the top of the System window to Skills, he discovers that he has an extra skill that he doesn't know where he got it from. But after reflection, he soon remembered that when he awoke in this world, he was in a desert. And that before losing the threat, the system window popped up.
"So this is a skill that I gained from my near death."
Nait let the pickaxe try to touch the system window, as the skill [I'm Not Thirsty] was to show him the description of the skill and discover that he could touch the window.
[Skill I'm Not Thirsty]
[a description : You were close to dying of thirst, you were noticed by your ability so you won't thirst easily.]
"..."
Nait couldn't find what to say about this legendary skill. No, he insulted her. 'Hell, I was so close to dying and just acquiring a skill like this, what am I going to do with it???? It does not help me in the future, especially now. I need strength to get out of…' Nait took a deep breath and tried to calm himself. 'Anyway better skill than without.'
'I have to have skills like [Muscle Effort] but how? The skill [Muscle Effort] came from continuing to mine. So, if you continue mining, it will evolve and become more powerful.'
Pulling away from the distraction of his mind, he put an idea in his head. Nait returned to Excavation with all his might and all his concern was strength.
****
After a while.
The 44th Guard reached out to the slaves, including Nait, and said. "It's time for breakfast. Everyone puts a pick and comes and takes his coupon and goes to the front to get it."
Holding in his hand No. 44 notebook and calling names. Everyone took out a coupon according to the number of Mana gems they extracted."
"Old man, you haven't worked since morning, so I'm sorry, you won't get any coupons." Number 44 smiled slyly as he looked at the old man with a bluish expression and then at Nait.
Continue calling until Nait's name arrives.
"Nait came over here."
Nait stepped forward with a swaying iron ball strapped to his leg.
"You achieved 20 gems, so I will give you a coupon of twenty points. Use them well." Number 44 frowned from his speech as if he didn't want Nait to pass the coupon.
Nait smiled at Number 44 and thanked. "Thank you"
Nait staggered forward as he thought. 'I can't move my legs normally because of this vile ball. So, zero run escape and zero force escape. I do not have the strength to move this iron, and I did not even think of a fight while it was with me, and I doubt my ability to defeat a guard who has a key. If Guard No. 44 is just an observer, then whoever protects a key will be between 10 or 20, and if I take the possibility that they classify themselves according to their strength, then the percentage My victory is below zero.'
While Nait was thinking, he came to the line of people waiting their turn for breakfast. He waited until he reached a guard and told him what to take.
Nait found a note on a table with the following written on it.
The list:
– 3 points: drink pee
– 3 points: bread like a rock
– 5 points: stale bread
– 5 points: water
– 10 points: soup
– 15 points: vegetable soup + bread
– 20 points: vegetable soup + bread + water
– 25 points: soup with meat
– 30 points: soup with meat + bread + water
– 35 points: …..
– 40 poi...
– 45
'Oh, they're really good at destroying the weak and seducing the strong. I have 20 points. I'm thinking of taking vegetable soup + bread and taking water.'
After deciding what to take he said to a guard and gave him a 20 point voucher. And he went.
He went straight to an old man who was carrying a pickaxe and started that he was going to work. "Grandfather, please take soup and water."
The old man looked at Nait with the face of innocence, thinking between how long the young man would remain like this and his grief over his situation.
"No thanks, this is your trouble, young man. This old man does not deserve your generosity." The old man denied and did not accept breakfast, but Nait insisted.
"Don't be like that, didn't I call you grandfather now? How can you treat me like a stranger? And yet I'm only doing this to tease Number 44's guard."
Upon hearing this, the old man cried, "Yes, you are right. But you cannot."
Thus, this episode lasted up to 5 minutes, so that the old man acquiesced and ate.
"Thank you, young man. I hope you stay like this. But why didn't you take the water? Take it yourself, since you came in sweating."
"Oh, never mind, I'm not thirsty." Nait thought, all thanks to the skill.
