2 Chapter Two: Theories
I made my way towards our School's Gym to see if my theory on the stats are true, along with a few others. Once in there I make my way towards the workout area and lay down on a bench press which has around 150 on it including the bar.
I start doing 10 reps, and 5 sets. Once done I take a break and get a ping from the system.
[Ping!]
[For exhausting yourself and tearing your muscles, you've gained one +1 Str and +1 Vit]
'Huh, so the system also makes it easier to work out. Though that could be the fact my body is that of a video games.' I thought, it seems that the system leaves some things out when concerning certain info.
[For mentally exerting yourself and learning new things for the best 30 minutes you've gained +1 Int, for learning where and how to use said information you've gained +1 wis.]
'Sweet, I should work out for the next hour or so to gain more stats.' I thought, before going back to the grind.
<1 Hour Later>
"Ha~ Ha~ Dear god that was exhausting." I said panting, but in my eyes it was worth it. Even if the gain wasn't that big, it was to me.

Yeah, I also did some stretching along with some yoga and it got me a yoga skill and some Dex which is pretty nice. I don't have a clue on how to level magic but Luck should be just me guessing or betting on something and being right, with Charisma going up with me socializing or leading.
During my breaks I had discovered that my inventory has 999 slots and I can open a box to about as big as me which was very nice, I can probably use it to catch arrows or bullets and other projectiles.
Also the options could add a hud, which I did, change the brightness, sound effects from the system and even play music! And since it's from the system theres no ads so it was very nice. It helped out with keeping focus and when I sang I got a singing skill.
My quest log had no quests, which makes sense but I hope to get on sooner or later as to gain Xp. I decided that I had worked out enough today and put my stuff away and walked towards my room to study and take a shower.
On the way there I go to the bathroom to see what looks like a small blue greek symbol in one of the stalls.
'How the hell haven't I seen this? Though I don't go to this side of the school often, let alone to it's bathroom.' I thought, as I tried touching it.
[Ping!]
[Daedalus' Labyrinth: A ancient labyrinth that was built by the famous demi-god son of Athena, Daedalus. Recommended level is 20.
Warning! Time is dilated by an unknown amount! Use caution!]
"Damn." I whispered, I could enter and come out into next week, or be in there for years lost and come out not a minute after. This is Narnia shit right here.
'I'll enter when I am a lot stronger, I'd rather not die.' I thought as I walked away and pissed. After which I entered my dorm and showered before studying.
'Now, how to solve the equation by elimination.' I thought, diving into my homework and mythology.
<Multiple Hours later>
"Ugh, f-fuck you homework." I muttered, mentally exhausted on another level.

'Thank god for my reading skill.' I thought, deciding to bring it up to see it's level.
[Skills: Informational: School Subjects:
Reading: Displays users ability to understand written texts. Increases reading speed by 62%.
Rank: Common
Level: 62 (Xp: 6002/6200)]
'Thats too high for my own good. Why did I read so much as a kid, like this makes me feel like a nerd.' I thought exasperated at reading being my highest level skill, barely above running.
'Speaking of running, I want that higher asap.' I thought, I want all things that keep me alive as high as possible. So that includes everything in my battle category and to get some magical ones as well.
[Ping!]
[Quest Received!]
[Quest: Work 'em out!

'Oh ho! My first quest! Alright, if I work out for at least 2-3 hours for the rest of the week I can get my physical stats to 50 for sure. Studying can be done during class so thats covered, but Luc and Cha and Mag need a lot of work, especially since I don't even know how to level magic.' I thought, theres always my stat points but I'm not touching them until need be.
"Ha~" I sighed, there ain't no rest for the wicked indeed.
'System, put on 'Ain't No Rest For The Wicked' please.' I asked as I hear it play in the background.
'Alright stats, here I come.' I though before tackling my new quest with renewed vigor.
