**Skills Activated: 'Life Flash', 'Sever MAX', 'Severance MAX', 'Flesh Sever MAX'.**
A sharp beak closed in.
Simultaneously, a pale blue flash thundered before me.
This is definitely it... I'm dead...
......Huh? Am I alive?
In that moment, a gruesome sight unfolded before my eyes.
I couldn't help but vomit.
**Skill 'Nausea Resistance Level 1' Acquired.**
**Skill 'Nausea Resistance Level 2' Integrated.**
**Skill 'Subspace Storage' Activated.**
The monstrous bird's corpse vanished in an instant.
I wasn't even given time to be confused.
And I kept vomiting.

I couldn't keep up with the flood of information.
The scene before me was seared into my eyes and wouldn't leave.
I still felt incredibly nauseous.
"Ugh… blegh."
**Skill 'Nausea Resistance Level 1' Acquired.**
The notifications were as noisy as ever.
With this pattern, I had a feeling appraisal would activate again.
...I really don't need appraisal in this situation, okay?
**Skill 'Appraisal' Activated.**
No matter how much I pleaded, it was pointless...
Can't you consider the situation before using a skill?

I told you not to show me that now.
I couldn't read a thing because of the nausea anyway.
**Skill 'Nausea Resistance Level 1' Acquired.**
I said stop disrupting my thoughts...
I don't want to see titles right now.
**Skill 'Appraisal' Activating...**
Seriously, Wisdom, you've got to be kidding me!
Even before, you notified me about some joke skill like 'Life Flash'.
I was on the brink of death!
**Response: Acquiring Skill 'Life Flash' was essential to defeat Entity: Rock Bird. Therefore, your claim is incorrect.**
"Huh? What do you mean! Explain it to me!"
...Oh crap, I was seen by a passerby.
They started running the moment I looked their way.
**Suggestion: Avoid talking to yourself in public.**
Shut up! It's your fault!
Sigh. So?
Why was 'Life Flash' necessary? Explain yourself.
Otherwise, I can't calm down.
**Response: Skill 'Life Flash' multiplies all actions by 14.4 times in the moments before death. It only activates at the verge of death. However, in this case, it was the optimal solution. To clarify, the acquisition of Skill 'Life Flash' was not due to Skill 'Wisdom', but due to Skill 'vkt@a.:☆Ⅱ'.**
Oh... is that so...
I apologize.
I've been out-argued.
My mental state is shattered in various ways...
I might skip school today...
Even if I go, I doubt I'll be able to focus.
**Response: Possessing Skill 'Wisdom' grants comprehensive knowledge of modern academics, basic, and specialized information. However, attending school affects attendance and behavior records, significantly impacting future prospects. Given the irregularity of this case, without sufficient evidence, it will be considered an unauthorized absence, severely affecting your grades. Therefore, attending school is advisable.**
I know that without you telling me!
Why do you have to hit me with cold, hard logic?
It's a direct hit to my psyche.
"Are you okay, Shu-kun??"
Saya came running, crying, towards me as I stood dazed.
"...Yeah, I'm fine... I really don't want to go to school today..."
"Are you really okay? Hey! Answer me!"
Don't cling to me.
I'm seriously confused right now.
Normally, I'd be over the moon, but in this situation, it's just adding to my confusion.
Notifications, birds, none of it makes any sense!
My head just can't keep up.
"Ugh… blegh…"
"Shu-kun, are you okay!?"
In the end, I vomited and took a sick day from school.
Honestly, I was relieved to skip school...
But during that time, Wisdom kept lecturing me, so maybe going to school would have been easier.
This kind of absurd stuff will probably keep happening...
The future looks bleak.
Also, Saya, it hurts, so please let go...
**Skill 'Pain Resistance Level 1' Acquired.**
I said stop that already...
