POV Alex

After I fell unconscious, I slept for two days straight as I level up my 'Poison Resistance' skill.

After I wake up from my slumber, I immediately realize that I am in the bed. I want to get up from my bed to start my day but to no avail.

I am paralyzed and I am stuck in my bed. I can still move through but albeit barely. I can only move my hands weakly but not my legs as no matter what I did I can't move it.

Well, that's what I get for eating and drinking 'Poison Food', it 'poisons' you. It is totally worth it though as my Poison Resistance skill levels up tremendously as I get a whopping 35 levels of it.

[Poison Resistance (Passive) Lvl.35 26.67%:

Passively reduces the duration of poison by 70% and increases the chance to prevent poison by 35%.]

Whoa, getting the 'Poison Resistance' skill Lvl. maximize will make me basically immune to poison and I will get to eat my newly made cuisine, 'Poison Food Cuisine'.

Jokes aside, what I am going to do now. I can't move my legs and I can't feel my 'legs' and I can only move my hands albeit barely.

"Sys, are you there?", I said as I remember she is the one who carries me towards my bed in my bedroom. I gotta thank her for it.

{Yes, Alex, I am here.}, Sys said.

"Uhmm, thank you for bringing me here but I have a request, can you give me an antidote for the poison?", I said as I an being hopeful that she will give me an antidote.

{No, Alex, there is no antidote for the poison. And even if I have it, I won't tell you and I won't make it for you}, Sys said as she smiled and gave a condescending tone in her voice as if she won.

"Awww come on Sys, don't be like that. You said you can't 'give' it to me but you can 'make' one. Can you please make me one. What am I supposed to do now if I don't have anything to do?", I said as I use my puppy eyes to her to guilt-trip her.

{No means no Alex, and this is a perfect opportunity for you to rest. You really need some rest, Alex. You've been grinding stats non-stop over these past years and what is with that puppy eyes of yours. Don't make that kind of face, it is making me cringe.}, Sys said as she covers her robot body away from me.

"Ugh, first because there is nothing to do here that's why I grind non-stop, and second that hurts my heart, you still didn't know my handsomeness. Anyways jokes aside, if you don't give me the antidote, what I am supposed to do now.", I said as I was contemplating what I am going to do. I am not really angry at Sys for not giving me an antidote as I anticipated it since the beginning.

{Rest and if you don't want to rest, just do something you like. It's not like you can move from your bed anyways.}, Sys said as she is ignoring my jokes.

"Well, if I don't have anything to do anyway, maybe it's time to get more new skills to grind on. Let's see, if I can't move my legs, and I can move my hands albeit weakly then it's that two skills, Drawing and Painting.", I said as I remember something.

I've been thinking to get these two skills for months now since I don't have the skill to grind on to.

Why didn't I get these two skills earlier in the past years you ask? Duh, I won't do that, it is too boring. Remember, it is too easy to grind my skills at all and it is very fast to level up. And even if I exclude the 'The Grinding Maniac' title and I don't grind it too often, it is still too fast for me as I have many years ahead of me and maximize lvl. it only takes a month or so, to begin with.

I have many years to take in my stay on Apeiron and I can't risk it losing my way of having fun. Yes, skills are important but I have to also take consideration of myself.

What will I do if I don't get skills anymore and I already maximize lvl? all of my skills. I don't have anything to do because there is no meaning continuing it anymore.

I just want to have a slow but having fun in life than a fast life with nothing to do anymore.

Anyways, as I starting to draw and paint. I get two new skills.

[Drawing (Passive) Lvl.1 0.10%: Passively gives the user the ability to draw proficiently by 5%.]

[Painting (Passive) Lvl.1 0.10%: Passively gives the user the ability to draw proficiently by 5%.]

These two skills will be the skills I am gonna grind is for when humans emerge, I will show them these skills as a mangaka artist.

--1,000 years--

It is 8,000 years have passed since I came to Apeiron, I am getting stronger over the past years. I don't even know what to do anymore as my stats skyrocketed, my body will get more muscles and my size is getting bigger over these past years.

I tried compressing my body with the gravity field but to no avail. In fact, it cannot be seen by a normal human but I see myself getting a little bit bigger after I compressed myself although just a little bit.

Damnit, I am still getting bigger!! There is no known method for me to compressed myself it seems.

It is kind of sad when I can't mingle with other people because of my size. I was still planning on getting back on my modern life when I was on Earth. But maybe magic can help me with my size problem, but I don't know any magic as magic is technically didn't exist yet. If ever I see Earth on this Big bang, I will go there as I still want to mingle with humans. I will still come back to Apeiron though, as I didn't want Sys to be alone and I will create a body for Sys.

Yup!

I am planning on getting her a human body for her. With my high technology advancement in that area, I can bring Sys back to life. Sys didn't want it to happen yet though.

On the day I finish advancing new technology, I tell her about it but she declined for now as she suggests giving her a new body now would be a bad idea. She suggested that I will give her a body after the Big Bang. (Author: Possible main heroine anyone???)

I don't know why, but she suggested it so I didn't ask her too many questions about it. I know she has secrets on her own and I will not force her to tell about it. I know she will tell me about it in the future but I am still curious about it.

Well, I am not gonna pry about it either as I respect her privacy. I-It is not like she is threatening me right now. *Nod* Hmhm, not like that at all. Yup, definitely not threatened by Sys.

Anyways, I already maximized Lvl. my Painting and Drawing skills. It is a normal skill if say so myself and I will get to draw my favorite anime and cartoon characters.

[Drawing (Passive) Lvl. Max: Passively gives the user the ability to draw proficiently by 500%.]

[Painting (Passive) Lvl. Max: Passively gives the user the ability to draw proficiently by 500%.]

Yup!

I am also watching Cartoons as entertainment. What, do you think I will stick to anime forever? Do you think I will stick to the forever anime policy when there is no anime to watch too? Of course not, I am still getting bored and I need some stimulation too.

Anyways, I also get a Complete Resistance skill after I basically get all Resistance skills. All the Resistance skill basically integrates itself into one after I get all of it.

[Complete Resistance (Passive) Lvl. Max: The user will have complete immunity to all kinds of attacks.]

How do I get the Resistance skills perhaps? I get it by jumping in ice water while being naked; I meditate in a snowy mountain while also being naked and many more while being naked. I said naked thrice because it is important to note here.

I get the Resistance skill basically naked at all times. I get a scolding from Sys though. Damnit, Sys is such a worrywart.
