Chapter 5 - Getting Used

" Huff "

" Huff "

Ricky was taking a deep breath after doing his workout routine.

Different types of monsters roam the Red Forest, but for the past week, starting from day one, he never skipped on doing his workout routine and hunting monsters.

" This guy doesn't get tired...."

" There are all kinds of personalities in this world and being diligent is one of the most important. "

Everyone who saw him was in awe of his perseverance, but nobody come outside to exercise alongside him.

After holding out themselves against a monster raid every day, they were already worn out.

With all that training, nobody wanted to put themselves under unnecessary strain.

They thought Ricky was being silly for pushing himself so hard.

It was also amazing that he constantly won the title of being number one, but since he never mixed with people, no one could congratulate him on it.

Some individuals were outraged by the fact that he refused to give anyone his water or food.

[Strength has increased by 1+1 for consistently doing workouts. ]

[Agility has increased by 1+1 for consistently doing workouts. ]

[ Endurance has increased by 1+1 for consistently doing workouts. ]

Ricky, though, didn't give a damn.

He believed that building his body should come first, rather than making friends.

Additionally, he felt assured in his choice in his unique way.

I can keep doing workouts to increase my Strength, Agility, and Stamina to a maximum level at the starting place.

In the world of Tir, everyone was aware of this, but these just summoned individuals couldn't be aware of it.

The power of knowledge is the most important here.

And right now, out of everyone here, Ricky has the most information.

He never considered disseminating this information.

There was no way in the Red Forest for someone who need the information to be spoon-fed to them.

One needed fast thinking, decisiveness, and endurance above everything else to survive.

"Why in the world is he acting that way? "

"He should be left alone. In any case, there isn't much to eat."

Ricky's spectator tried to imitate him but shortly gave up.

Thud! Thud!

His assault speed increased.

To see results, they would have needed to train and work out at least 10,000 times.

Although it was a struggle for him, he saw it as nothing.

Only one or two recruits out of every hundred made it through the training in one of the Main Cities of Tir, and he did.

To try it, I must have at least 25 in all of my physical attributes such as Strength, Agility, and Stamina.

Once the impossible is accomplished, a special class becomes available.

There were never more than 100 persons that possess a special class, not even in the past.

But they all had strength that defied reason.

Naturally, there was an equal level of risk involved, but the risk was unquestionably worthwhile.

Additionally, you had to initially train your body to a specific degree to earn the special class of

"Personification of Death."

He could make out the vast tall trees that encircled the Red Forest.

Outside the Red, Forest is a long river that seems to be endless but if you persevere enough you will reach a cave where the class is located.

He would have to swim the endless river, fend against armies of monsters, and kill the boss monster that's guarding the cave to become the Personification of Death.

That objective was still far away at this time.

After leaving the forest, encounters with Red Wolves and Goblins are regular, but if you're unlucky, you can run into the " Orcs " a humanoid monster that is five-ten times stronger than the other monster here.

Therefore, it is very difficult for beginners to reach that cave.

I need a weapon in addition to my strength, agility, and stamina.

Each day, after overcoming the monster raid, they would get awards based on their performance.

The award for defeating the boss monster, which appears every fifteen days, was sufficient to make up for the rewards from the previous days.

He intended to leave and get the Personification of Death class after he had at least eliminated the first boss.

He needed it to get a much better weapon and an upgrade to his overall battle power.

"Pardon me,"

Two women suddenly walked up to Ricky and tried to talk to him.

They had a lot better appearance than the others even though they were a little disorganized.

They were two college students who wore a lot of makeup.

Speaking up was the woman with long, straight hair who was cutely clutching her fist.

A little softer, Ricky swings his machete in the air.

" Does swinging every day do any purpose in your training?

"

Huff!

Huff!

But Ricky merely persisted in his workout.

He struck cleanly and without making any extra moves.

Air slightly vibrates by the precise swinging of Ricky.

" Why don't you respond to my question?"

The young lady walked right in front of him.

She looked down, her face looking pathetic.

Her white blouse also revealed her bare shoulders.

Any man would be fascinated by such a scene.

She was that stunning, and some of the nearby males gave Ricky envious looks.

" Fuck off "
