7 Chapter 7 Good Luck
After I finished cooking their food I was given a piece of bread with some ham and a bottle of water and sent back to my room, where I stored the food and decide on what my next step should be.
And then I thought back to what level-up meant, apart from a plus one in all stats I also gained something else, something very important.
Status points.
So I decided to open up my status and take a look at how many points I currently had.

---------------------
'OK, first thing, I will use two points to increase both Strength and Vitality to 10, this way I won't be weaker than other kids, but still leaves me 13 points to spend.'
While thinking about where I should spend them I thought back to how I had risen my stats until now, all of them were easily able to increase because fell in a pretty common task, whether it was cooking, training, fighting, problem-solving, etc, all but one, and so without any delay I used all my status points.
---------------------
Vit: 9=> 10
Str:9=>10
Luck: 5=>18 (+10, equipment)
---------------------
' I just hope they will have an effect on this shitty life of mine.'
Now that this was solved I continued my mana training while taking out one of the books that I now had enough stats to learn.
It being Parkour, it needed both 10 strength and dex, it boosts my agility, reflexes, and speed while doing parkour, whatever this meant.
Not exactly knowing what Parkour was, after absorbing the book I decided to read it, and I got excited at the idea of jumping from house to house while doing cool tricks, but doing so during the daytime would be stupid.
' And I always get locked during nighttime... unless.'
An idea formed inside my mind, so without wasting a second I started willing for mana to appear in my hand, and after it formed, I pushed my hand against the lock of my door, whenever I felt something blocking my mana, I would accordingly change its shape, and after 30 minutes, and a lot of wasted mana, I was able to finally create the skill I wanted.
---------------------
Mana Lockpicking Lv.1
You are a thief, A MAGIC ONE, trough mana you are able to open locks by creating a Mana-made copy of the key, the more complex the lock the higher the required level is, whenever trying to pick a lock a percentage of how high your chance is to pick will appear.
Cost: Depends on the difficulty of the lock and the level of the skill.
Lockpicking Lv.1
You a thief, A NOT MAGIC ONE, represents your ability at the use of instruments to pick locks, boost speed, reflexes, and precision while lockpicking locks, whether through mana or not, raises the chances of unlocking a lock by (Skill level)%, ( if he has a 50% and this is level 50, he has a 75% to unlock it)
---------------------
A smile appeared on my face while I took a look at the percentage I had of unlocking the lock with my current level... 10%... another thing I need to grind.
Now knowing what I spend the next few hours doing I continued using the skill on the lock, making both skill levels up at the same time and mana manipulation in the background,
With each level up in Mana Lockpicking the chance rose by 10%, while the changes caused by Lockpicking were actually quite small for the moment.
After 2 hours of trying my mana had expired and I was able to only get two levels for both skills, while Mana Manipulation only rose by one.
I wanted to sleep on my bed so that I could reset my MP, but until now I wasn't sure of how I actually slept, and if I could be woken up by outside forces, so not wanting to get beaten because I didn't wake up when I was told to, I decide to wait for it regenerate normally while reading some books.
My peace though was disturbed by sudden chaos inside the house.
I waited and put my ear against the door of my room trying to hear what they were saying.
" He is coming... We need to prepare... Harry will stay under the stairs... If that brat dares..."
I only heard pieces of information, but from what I could collect, someone was coming, someone important, and unless I wanted to get a beating I had to stay hidden.
Before I could even get out, my door was locked.
'Guess no food is coming tonight then *Sigh.'
Being used to the occasion I ignored the trio and continued my book reading.

It had been at least 3 or 4 hours from when I was locked in, and I had done my job of not producing any sound while people were here, which resulted in a welcome reward.
---------------------
You have got the skill: Sneaking Lv.1
Due to previous experience, it reached level 18
Sneaking Lv.18
You are on a sneaky boy, which represents your ability to move stealthy, boost speed, and reduce any sound produced while sneaking around by ( Skill level)%
---------------------
I was about to grab another book after storing the last one inside my inventory when a golden notification appeared in front of my face.
---------------------
Good Luck Event has been triggered.
---------------------
Before I could react to the notification, the door of my room got basically pulled out of frame, while voices shouted outside.
" WHAT ARE YOU DOING?" The voice that I recognized belonging to Vernon shouted.
" What am I doing? WHAT AM I DOING? YOU HAVE BENE TREATING THIS KID LIKE A DOG FOR YEARS AND YOU DARE ASK WHAT I AM DOING?" A voice much louder and angrier than Vernon ones shouted right back at him.
A woman lowered her head and looked at me with a smile.
" Are you ok kid?"
Right in front of my face, a woman with red hair, green eyes, and a very beautiful face could be seen.
I instantly used Observe on the woman, trying to understand who the hell she was.
