TRAINING
"let's try that again" I said sprinting forward towards the dummy.
Just when I was in a close range with the dummy, I swung my katana again this time aiming for it's neck, yet again it blocked my attack
*DON*
The wooden dummy swung it's own sword again.
"Hehehe, I've got you now" I said as I dodged the incoming attack.
Seeing the opening, I thrust my sword forward trying to end the training right there. But to my surprise, it dodged my attack yet again by moving to the side.
The dummy slashed at me ferociously, like it was angry that I just tried to kill it.
I didn't have the time to fix my posture, so I was hit by it's attack and sent flying again.
*Arghhh* I screamed out in pain, but I wasn't angry, at least I was impressed with myself for dodging an attack from the dummy.
Now I was finally ready to test my system.
I thought of the system and a translucent screen appeared before

Seeing the screen in front of me, I noticed that my agility stat had gone up from 6-9.
But that was not what I wanted to test, following my commanded just by thinking
[Eagle's eye has been activated]
I got a notification from the system that I had activated a skill.
"Through the name of the skill, I think it would have something to do with the eyes, maybe night vision or something" I thought to myself.
My gaze fell upon the dummy that was in front of me unmoving.
"Maybe it needed me to attack before it could rataliate" I thought.
[Normal training dummy]
[Durability: 20]
[Strength:20]
[Agility:15]
So this is what the eagle's eye could do, it was great having a skill that could show the stats of your opponents.
"It will come in handy one day" I said dashing forward, continuing my training.
I got in close distance with the wooden dummy.
It responded by raising it's wooden sword, swinging it at me.
I had already seen the incoming attack, I moved to the side, countering the attack by swinging my katana towards it's waist.
With it's shield the dummy deflected my attack, but I was ready for that.
I spun around the dummy attacking it again, this time aiming for it's neck, but it just blocked my attack yet again.
[Weak point detected]
[Weak point: neck]
"Huh..." I was shocked to see that the skill eagle's eye could also detect the opponents weak point.
"Arghhh" I was distracted by the screen, leaving an opening for the dummy.
"Damn... this skill is op and that too it's only at level1".
I raised my katana again, this time with a new motive "aim for the neck" I said sprinting towards the dummy again.
*DON* *DON* *DON*
I sent a few stikes aiming at the dummy's neck but they were all futile as it was either blocked or dodged by the dummy.
After numerous strikes and punches that were inevitably blocked, I was now getting tired.
I threw a punch towards it's abdomen, and as expected it was blocked.
"Got you now!" I screamed, swinging my katana vertically
[Level1 training dummy has been defeated]
[Proceed to level2]
[Yes] [No]
"Hell no...!" I yelled.
* * * *
I walked out of gym tired and sweaty "I need to take a shower I said".
I thought of the screen and it appeared.
"Time to check my progress"

I checked my stat to confirm my progress.
"I'm stronger now" I thought.
If you had been observing, you'd notice that I always keep the foxy charm skill active, who wouldn't want to be attractive.
I was heading to my dorm when I saw Lucy, I tried to ignore her, but she was heading my way.
"Haaa... What does she want now" maybe she was trying to confess, I expected it as I looked like a famous model now.
"I'll just refuse her" I thought.
"C-chase, I've been looking for you"
"Really, now you've found me"
"Come with me" Lucy said
"What, why"
"Just come with me, it's urgent" she was adamant, well I couldn't refuse now, and I really wanted to hear what she wanted to say
"Okay" I replied following her
* * * *
In a dark room, two men were seen talking to each other
"How is he doing" a man with white and black hair, seemingly in his mid 40s said
"He's alright, he survived the system" the other man said, he had black hair that covered part of his eyes, he seemed to be in his early 20s
"Good, and what about the assassins" the older man said
"He killed them"
"Yes, great,... I need a favour from you william"
"I'll do anything you want, just give the order" the younger man whose name was now known as William said
"I need you to keep a close eye on him, watch his every movements and help him grow stronger... If you detect any obstacle blocking his path to success, destroy it... Even if they are his friends"
"Yes master" William took a bow and left the room.
Suddenly, a out of the shadows emerged a woman, she had black hair that reached her backside, deep blue eyes, she had white skin and a very seductive body
"Don't be so hard on him" she said
"In order for him to become stronger, we need to remove every obstacle blocking his path" the man said
"He's still our son" she said
"And that's the more reason why we should make him strong"
"Haaa... Just don't kill him while trying" she said leaving the room through the walls
