Legendary Skill

[The user has accepted the system's main mission *Greatest of All Time*]

[The reward random legendary skill has been sent to the user's inventory]

[System menu unlocked]

"Wow, a legendary skill, this system is just like in those novels. I wonder if I'll get an overpowered skill that will let me throw at 160 km/h or something like that" - Shun remembered some novels he had read. Since he started skipping baseball club practices, he had a lot of free time, and the thought of getting an overpowered system began to excite him.

"Open system menu" - Shun thought, and at that moment, the system sound rang in his ears, followed by a screen appearing in front of him.

"Huh? My stats are so low, and I only have one skill too." - Looking at his stats, Shun felt a bit down, but he quickly remembered the legendary skill he had received and opened the Inventory full of expectation.

[Inventory:

1 Legendary Skill Box]

[Do you want to open the Legendary Skill Box?

Yes/No]

"Yes!"

[You have obtained the legendary skill Hunter Eyes]

[Hunter Eyes (SS+)

Gives the user a better vision of the ball and its trajectory.]

"Huh? Better vision of the ball? What the heck am I supposed to do with that? I'm a pitcher, if I were a batter or a fielder, it would be useful, but this won't help me at all. Damn, I shouldn't complain, right? Even if it's useless, it's just my first skill. I got this reward just for accepting the system, so I should get something much better in the future when I complete missions." - Little did Shun know that the legendary skill was a gift from the system, and it would be very difficult to obtain another one soon. Moreover, even in the future, Hunter Eyes would be one of the most important skills for Shun as a baseball player.

Of course, at that moment, the young man was disappointed not to get a skill that would let him pitch at 160 km/h and decided to open the missions.

[Missions:

Special Missions]

"Oh, so there are different types of missions. That's interesting. I should complete the main missions first, I'll probably get another legendary skill if I complete them" - Shun was still expecting to get a good skill to help him as a pitcher and went straight to the main missions.

[Main Missions:

#1 Greatest of All Time (Part 1)

Win the Koshien

Rewards: Unknown

#2 Two-way Player (Part 1)

[You need to be in rest mode to view more mission details]

"Huh? Win the Koshien? How the heck am I supposed to win the Koshien? I still have 2 years before I enter high school. Besides, counting the Summer Koshien and the Spring Koshien, I'll only have 5 chances to win. That is if I can even make it to the Koshien 5 times. Does this stupid system have any idea how hard that is?" - For those who don't know what the Koshien is, they might think Shun was complaining excessively, but winning the Koshien is probably the biggest challenge for all high school baseball players in Japan. Of course, it's also the greatest honor for those who achieve it. But it's not yet time to think about that, as Shun said, he still has 2 years before entering high school.

"These main missions, forget it. Let's see the daily missions." - Unable to view the second main mission, Shun decided to settle for the daily missions.

[Daily Missions:

#1 Physical Training

Run 10 km

Complete all the following exercises and positions*

Deadline: End of the day.

Completion Rewards: 10 coins and a bronze mystery box.

Failure Penalty: Loss of the system]
