"System, how do I gain Body EXP and Comprehension Levels?".
[Body EXP can be gained by training with the given technique and Comprehension Levels can be obtained through reading the technique's manual.]
"What do Comprehension Levels do?".
[They increase the rate at which you obtain Body EXP. Your current rate is 20 Body EXP per hour, with your Comprehension Multiplier being 1x, thus not effecting your gain.]
"I think I'll do 5 hours of training so I unlock the next stage. Maybe I should read the manual to increase my comprehension level though… nah, I wanna see how much stronger I'll get. I should also test out this "Hell Fist". I wonder if the awesome name can measure to its power?".
He goes to a nearby tree and tests it out, but he only leaves a sizable dent in the wood. "Wait, why is it so weak? Maybe I should temper my body more. That may be able to release more of its potential.".
James proceeds to take the manual and reads how to train the technique, when all of a sudden, he hears a mechanical voice ring out.
[Ding! Congratulations, you have increased your understanding of this technique to [Vague]. You Comprehension Multiplier has increased to 1.25x!]
"Wait, it was that easy? Albeit, it is vague. I barely understand the meaning of the technique anyways. Well, I guess I'll start training it now.".
He trains the technique for 4 hours to level it up, because his rate had become 25 Body EXP per hour through the comprehension level.
[Ding! Congratulations! Your [Hell Body Tempering Technique] has become Mid Stage 1! EXP till next level - 0/500!]
His face of joy turns into one of disappointment, as he had thought that he would immediately advance in stage. Well, that would be too easy, no? He can't bear to 20 hours of f*cking training. He doesn't even have a damn exercise track to listen to! He thought that this may also be a good time to check out the city since he wants to see how badly he f*cked peoples' lives up.
He ends up deciding to go to the city next week, when he hopefully has enough courage to wash off all the guilt on him. He decides to split the training into 4 days, 5 hours of training every day.
Day 1
James remembers that he had a skill card from he novice gift pack. The skill is called fire manipulation. Now before he gets too crazy and becomes a pyromaniac, he realizes that he can only manipulate fire, not just summon a fireball anywhere. He also remembers that he had a golden root from the gift pack, which may be the golden lily root.
After using analysis, he discovers that it is indeed the golden lily root. He now has both the ingredients to make the Stat Increase Pill way more effective; the golden lily root and a way to instantaneously nullify the fire. He takes the pill, the root, and tests out the skill a bit till he gets the hang of it.
He carves out the bottom of a pot with his dagger and places the root and pill on the stove at maximum heat. When they both turn to ash, he instantly decreases the heat with his skill. The two piles of ash become one and start vaguely becoming pill-like. A few minutes later, it is done.
"Analysis!".
[Super Stat Increase Pill]
[Increases a chosen stat by 5x. Will become useless after each stat has had one used 5 times. It can also increase the level of a bronze skill by 3, or a silver skill by 1.]
[Grade: Silver IV]
James thinks of taking the pill to increase his analysis skill to level 4, but a divine will can't be bothered to write even longer item descriptions every time, so he instead decides to increase his physique to 700. He had gained 40 physique from the 4 hours of exercise he had done the other day. He feels an ungodly burst of power and speed. He goes to a tree over a kilometer away in only 40 seconds and has to dig his feet into the ground to stop himself from crashing into the tree and knocking it over.
He uses "Hell Fist" and creates a gigantic hole in the tree, also successfully chopping it in half. He rushes to a bolder over yonder and makes a big crater in the middle, nearly turning it into pebbles. He is amazed by this newfound power.
He does the 5 hours of training for the day, then falls asleep in his cabin.
