orphanage (3)
Ryu's POV
*****
letting out a slow, long and loud yawn I got out of my bed, I rubbed my eyes with my hands while walking slowly to give my eyes time to adjust to the light, while also slightly stretching myself to get rid of the drowsiness, then I did the typical normal routine like brushing my teeth and all that stuff.
after finishing my bath, I left to get some food, i have been living in this orphanage for five and half years so I knew the whole place pretty well because unlike my brothers, the first thing I did was explore the whole place whenever I could, as for my brothers, Kai first dissappeard around a year and half ago while yuno dissappear a little over half a year ago.
"yo ryu good morning" came a voice from behind me
turning around I saw that it was Ray the person who teaches us, though it didn't really benefit me as I already knew most of it.
"yea good morning, whats for breakfast this morning" I replied back, over the two and half year, I have pretty much become friends with Ray and the other five kids excluding the other four as they all dissappeard, two of the four being my bros while other two where the ones who followed Kai.
"it's steamed buns for breakfast today" he replied back, not gonna lie I was a huge fan of buns even in my past life, so I am not gonna complain even if they aren't the best quality of buns.
"oh okay, anyway are you all ready to leave?" I asked, if your wondering about what I am talking about, its nothing much, me and the others along with Ray planned to leave this orphanage, because from what I have learned, the owner of this place is a noble who uses this place to improve his public image while also secretly sending some of the kids to slave traders and all other places.
oh if your wondering why I am not really worried about my brothers, its because I don't really think their gonna die, if anything I feel bad for their slave traders.
"yea we can leave today evening" he replied back, by now he was pretty much next to me and wisphered instead of talking loud like before.
the plan was very simple actually, we take some of the money this place uses and run away, we will deal with any problems afterwards, though I don't think there would be much problems because the noble can't really go after us because the money we are going to take will the the dirty money he got from the slave traders, so to him its better to ignore this then chase us, plus its not like we are gonna take everything.
"okay then I will see you later" I told him as I left to eat.
after I got myself two steamed buns I sat down on a opened window, yes litteral sitting in a open window while my legs were freely dangling on the outside side of the window.
I looked around the place I had been staying for a long time, I guess you could say pretty much my whole life heh, as I ate my food I opened my status window.

the first time I opened it, I was bit surprised to see a floating window in front of me, but now seeing it doesn't really mean much, I will say this though me and yuno were very surprised as well as bit shocked to find that we were from the várvaroi household, but it didn't last long after the initial shock, because thinking back to my first memory after coming into this body, it was a maid who seemed to be fleeing, so it wasn't really hard to join the dots and guess that those two Duke families attacked the várvaroi family which resulted both the Dukes dying while the count family was wiped out.
I also leveled up to level 2 during the past five months by simply training and beatin-
*cough*
I mean help the others train and sparring with them.
as for how I leveled up while it's not really possible to level up with training, it was because once I was five years old I was suddenly hit with a headache for few minutes before it went away, then I just remembered about the várvaroi technique or whatever its called, I am too lazy to remember it.
also from this technique or whatever, I figured out that I have affinity with fire and wind, the fire gives me a strength boost while the wind gives me a agility boost, which is also thanks to this....technique is what I am gonna call it, and the amount of boost depends on my mana stat, so when my mana stat is 2 I get 2 stats points for both strength and agility pretty cool, though it sucks that I can't use magic anytime soon.
oh and this [???] thing is another stat which...I guess you kinda unlocked once you reach level 10 type of thing, its apparently not that rare every one in a thousand have it, and apparently not all of them will be useful, yuno also had one, I know because he told me about it, when we first opened our status window for the first time when we reached 4 years old, I don't about Kai though as he dissappeard before that.
also I have cleared up one of my biggest doubts about the level ups, which is do you get stronger when you level up or do you level up because you got stronger and from what I can see its definitely the first case of getting stronger when you level up rather then leveling up because you got stronger.
also it seems that the stats affect you more of like in a internal way then physical way, like when I leveled up I felt that I got stronger but my body didn't really change much, so I can kinda conclude that the status doesn't register things from your body, for example I have been doing stamina training pretty heavily and if I had to measure I would say I roughly have about 3 points in stamina but it only says 2, so basically if two people one buff dude and one skinny dude who both have 10 points in strength do an arm rusling match, the buff dude would win.
anyway enough explaining, after I finished eating my food, I added both my free points into my mana stat, because I don't really want to mess up when I go to steal the money and make it hard to get away, plus it will be helpful in the future if we are to run into any trouble.

damn I am very strong for a five year old huh, considering most normal people are from level 1 to 9, my agility being 6 is very fast, especially when you also account for this small body which I can move easily with my level strength.
