"Yue, how will I increase my stats? I still need a lot of points. I can't believe I 'm less than an average person's regular stats." Ben's forehead creased, thinking on how to accomplish his first quest and a bit disappointed knowing his stats are lower than normal.

Yue laughed saying "Master, your only turning 17 in a few months, not yet an adult, of course your stats are normal for a teen. It's easy to increase your stats Master, you just need to do specific activities to gain a stat point, for example, running for 5 km will give you a stat point, making that a 10 km run will give you 2 stat points."

"What other activities are there? I can't just run everyday right? And if I run 15 km will it give me 3 stat points?"

"Master, the maximum the system will give you will be 1 to 2 stat points, depending on the actions you've done. Some of those activities are push ups, sit ups, squats, running and studying. Master, you can try other activities too, being healthy in body and mind can never be wrong anyway."

"Ok, I think I'll start tomorrow, I still have a day before class starts, might as well start experimenting on these activities, if I need to run 10 km for 2 stat points, how many will I need for those squats." Ben thought as he went back to his bedroom to sleep, having too much information that he needed to digests and accept that he is now different from what he is in his past life. Having a heaven defying system pop out in your mind means that there's more to it than just an ordinary life that he lived in his past life.

The next day, Ben woke up at 4am and started his 10 km run. After he got his 2 stat points, he immediately put it in his Endurance reaching 10.0 points and lessening the fatigue he's feeling. Next, he experimented on the push ups and found that together with sit ups and squats, he needs to complete 50 each for 1 stat point, putting it all on his Endurance making it 13.0 points. After doing all the exercises that Yue suggested for him, he went to rest for a while, took a bath and started preparing his breakfast, he was starving from all the exercises he did. It's also a good thing he put all stat points on his Endurance first, making him cope with the fatigue he's experiencing.

Then, he went to his study room to start listing the things he needed, it was supposed to be done yesterday but due to the surprise of the pop up system, he got side-tracked. It's been a routine for him to make a list for everything he wants to do in his past life, cultivated from being an architect's mindset that was ingrained by his professor "If you fail to plan, you plan to fail." Hearing it for 5 years during his study in his past life and voila! he started making those lists. It also helps him to remember his tasks and he can also include more if he got more ideas for his tasks.

To Do Lists for Farming:

*Acquire funds

*Buy a fertile land

*Research on what you need to plant each season

*Research on the building you'll need

*Chicken, Cows, Pigs!?

*Karin*

Looking at his lists, his very first task is to acquire funds. 'I won't accomplish anything if I just stay at home, might as well stroll outside to get ideas.' He went out of his house and started to walk, since he's not in a hurry, he didn't bother using his car, he wants to familiarize himself in his new neighborhood in Old River Village. Most of the house here are owned by above middle class families, the area is secured and not much people roaming around, he also wants to know where other establishments are for his needs.

While walking, he got a call from his mom, "Ben, how are you doing today? Did you eat your breakfast? How about your lunch?"

"Mom, it's still an hour before lunch, I already ate my breakfast, bacon and eggs. I'm outside right now, strolling in the village. How about you Mom? How's my siblings and Dad?" Ben asks with a slight smile, reminiscing how his mother never changed from being a thoughtful and worrywart mom.

"We're fine son, your dad's already at work, Jace as always is playing video games and Jonalyn is arranging her bag for school tomorrow. You'll also start school tomorrow, are all your things ready?"

"Yeah, I got it ready, you don't need to worry about me, I'm a big man now Mom!" Ben smiled.

"Huh!? Big man? Don't come crawling back to me when you miss my cooking! Hmph!" We both laughed, honestly, being married early also has an advantage, with my Mom giving birth to me around her 20's, we can treat each other like buddies, jokes and pranks sometimes, we can talk about anything too. After the question and answer portion with my mom, she hang up the phone. I found a small park and sat on a bench thinking about the past.

Tomorrow will be the start of school year and Ben made up his mind to look for Karin, she will be on her last year of high school which is integrated in our university campus. 'I'll just look, I'm not ready to talk to her yet.' Ben, still decided to wait and see first. He doesn't know if Karin will still like her. She doesn't know him yet and he wants to pursue her this time, the conventional way, unlike in his past life where he just forced Karin thru the phone to be his girlfriend. That time, they have already known and liked each other, so asking her to be his girlfriend on the phone worked. This time however, Ben knew Karin but Karin doesn't know anything about Ben, even his existence.

Benedict smiled, knowing how Karin lives in her fairy tale world, it'll be easy to get to know her again. Just thinking about it, Ben's heart starts thumping a little bit faster, excited to see his wife after so long.

Leaving the park, he found a small restaurant to eat his lunch. Ben decided to go back to his apartment to read some educational materials since it seems that walking won't give him any stat points.

While walking back, he saw a lottery stall. Leaving everything to chance, he went and made a bet for 6 numbers, the prize will be enough for him to buy a hectare of land. He have already chosen the land that he wants and there will still be an opportunity for him to expand. The land he wants is just a stone's throw away from school and with it near the market and malls, it'll be easier for him to sell his crops.

Reaching his home, he went directly to his study to familiarize himself again of the building laws in the country. After reading for two hours, he got another stat point. He didn't assign his stat point yet, he wants to know tomorrow morning how long he can last with his 13 Endurance.

Having nothing else to do, he watched some anime's and read his favorite manga's before standing up to cook simple dinner for himself and turn in for the day, he still needs to wake up early tomorrow for his First Quest, he knew if he keeps up, he won't need 30 days to complete it.
