System 2

{Hi, I'm your friendly Rex}

You fucker, you didn't let me rest peacefully.

{Don't worry, everything went well, though I have to inform you that your family received a blessing of fortune, that is something that all regressors who came from families that aren't that rich got, to help them and all}

That's good, I hope I could buy all the stuff I need for myself.

{The restrictions you got on the system will be lifted when other get access to the system, that's it, bye}

OK, that's somewhat relieving, I hoped I could get early access, though I should've been satisfied with the wishes, but being greedy doesn't hurt sometimes.

Ok, now what?

Guess I'll wait.

[You have the option to be put asleep till being birthed or you could open your gift box, getting a quest to do in the mean time is also an option.]

Then open the gift box

[Understood]

['Gift Box' open]

[Congratulations, you got 'level decrease pill' x 10, 'full restoration potion' (Rare rank)x3, 'body refining pill' (mythical)x2, APx5, STx15, 'Stat boosting elixir set' (common rank)x1, 'Stat boosting elixir set' (uncommon rank)x1, Spear (common), Axe (common), Knife (common), 'Food pills' (common rank)x30, 'random skill book' (unique rank)x1]

I GOT A FUCKING 'STAT BOOSTING ELIXIR SET', that's worth like 100000 gold coins per vial, even when the dungeons became extremely normal and I got two sets of them, that's 20000 platinum coins for me easily.

[You can't sell to the system yet, host]

You just crushed half of my plans.

Either way, stat boosting elixir boosts your stat by 5 stats per rarity rank, so a common 'strength boosting elixir' will boost str by 5, uncommon ones by 10 and so on.

Now you might not thing this is much, but in the latter stages of levels (B+ rank and further) it is very difficult to increase your stats, so difficult in fact, that only those that reached their stat limit do it, so 'stat boosting' elixir is like a godsent gift to me, not now, but later, when I'm level 571 or higher.

Hey system, does time stop in the inventory?

[Yes]

Then I have no worries regarding that.

'Level decrease pill' is super useful for me, since it removes the level as well as all the progress made in the level, so if I consume the 10 pills I'll be level -10 with no drawback or anything at all, that's extra stat points for me.

The 'full restoration potion' is extremely valuable, since it can recover me from all wounds, illnesses and so on, though since it is rare rank, it will work only till C+ rank.

'Body refining pill' increases my talent rank. I said that I have no potential limit, but that says nothing about my talent rank, it should still be S, right system?

[Yes]

That's a good, either way, a common 'body refining pill will increase your talent limit by one minor increase (G to G+ or G+ to F-) till F rank, then it increases by one major and two minor ranks and if the upper pill limit is two or more ranks higher than your talent rank, then it increases by one major rank.

So now I can increase my talent rank to EX rank safely, since 'body refining pills have no flaws apart that you can no longer consume lower rank pills. And the limit in consuming the pills is 5.

'Full meal pills' will be useful since they provide the same amount of calories and benefits as a normal healthy meal would.

The skill book might be good, use it now, there won't be much use in keeping it anyway.

[Understood, 'skill book' (unique rank) used]

[ Congratulations you got the skill "Mana manipulation" (F- -rank)]

System, give me the description of that skill book

[Understood]

[Skill book

Rank:Unique

Description:

A skill that will give a skill of any rank that is useful to the one who used the skill book]

Ok, that was disappointing, Mana manipulation is a very easy skill to get, though it is an essential skill for any mana related class.

System, what other things I can get?

[Now you can either get a quest or go unconscious for the remaining time in the womb]

Then I choose the second option.

[A quest is being generated]

[Quest generated]

[Quest (S-rank)

Name: baby training

Description: You can't get stronger, but time shouldn't be wasted, so train your mana.

Objective: mana manipulation to E rank

Temporary gifts: 'Mana protection' (Unique), 'Mana shield' (Unique), Blessing of mana (Unique

Punishment: you no longer can use the 'shop' function

Reward: 'training' (G+-rank), 'resting' (G+-rank)]

OMG, I CAN GET TWO OF THE TOP FIFTY MOST DESIRED SKILLS

SYSTEM I ACCEPT THE QUEST

[Quest accepted]

Ahem, … let's calm down.

I may or may not have rushed the quest, system how much time do I have?

[5 months, 30 days, 23 hours, 40 minutes, 34 seconds]

That's not the most time, but doable.

The 'training' skill allows me to train more effectively, while 'resting' allows me to rest more effectively.

If you reach high enough level, you can also get temporary buffs, though those are only myths, since the highest anyone has ever gotten in any of those is S- -rank due to the absurd rank up conditions.

System, what does 'mana protection', 'mana shield' and 'Blessing of Mana' do and why are they ranked 'unique'?

[All quest generated temporary skills, items, titles and so on are unique.]

['Mana protection' makes sure that no mana harms the host and makes sure no one detects the host's mana, as a passive effect, if the host or host's mother is attacked, all fatal attack will be redirected or blocked.]

[The skill uses 4 mp/h. 'Mana shield' forms a shield around the host that passively uses 1mp/1h.]

[The shield makes sure no mana leaves the barrier while offering basic protection against harm and a small purifying effect for the host.]

[Blessing of Mana increases the regeneration of mana as well as the capacity of mana 5x and 2x respectively.]

That's good, now let's begin the training montage.

A/N: He only understood 1 month later what kind of insanity he chose to do.
