I enjoyed my life until I ended up with the echo and a system. Now all I have to do is survive the tutorial world! Why is the tutorial world Worm though?! I'm so dead.
Sitting at my desk, I continue watching the first episode of season 4 of overlord. man, Momonga is a badass. I wish I could be isekaid, as long as I had some decently growing powers, a normal male body, and infinite potential, I'd be happy.
Just don't send me to worm. That place is fucked and I'd rather not be instantly eliminated by a false angel, or a crazy bitch with a fedora and instant win button in her brain. I sigh, watching the credits roll to the first episode as the ED starts to play. I listen to it all the way to the end,
and then I am yanked through a portal. In my underwear while sitting on the chair still. I land right in front of a billboard that says, "Welcome to brockton Bay." I can't help but curse. Here I am in my underwear and I really hope I'm having a nightmare because. oh great.
"I'm sorry." I hear a click and my head jerks back as an ear shattering bang blasts my brains all over the ground. I don't even feel myself die. In the corner of my eye I see a frowning in a fedora walking away from my cooling corpse- "door to-" is the last thing I hear before I lose consciousness.

and then I am back in my Room sitting down at my desk to watch overlord.
What the fuck was that?!
I immediately stand up and get dressed I know for a fact that wasn't a dream, so I need to actually get up and get ready, I have 20 minutes to face contessa. The precog who doesn't lose.
[For dying for the first time, you have gained the physique and sword training of a Marine cadet(post training.)(one piece.)]
[Brute 1. Mover 1.]
I grab my Bokken from the other side of the room.
I feel a hot sensation travel throughout my body, and am immediately gasping for air. I feel like I just ran a fucking marathon. But at least I'm not a fat-ass anymore. Well At least I have a system, going to Earth-Bet without a powerset and being immediately killed isn't a good time. sadly, however I'm going to probably die a lot. and now I'm hyperventilating. I look at my now dressed body, as I hold my bokken. in my hand, I notice the time, and see that Overlord season 4 episode 1 would have ended if I had actually paid atte- I'm now falling towards the ground, still holding my bokken, staring at the top of the "Welcome to Brockton Bay." sign. I land, breaking both my legs.
"I'm sorry." is the last think I hear as I look up at a woman wearing a fedora, a dress, and a domino mask.
*Bang!*
and then I'm standing in front of my computer, fully dressed, wearing my clothes.
[You have gained Shounen Potential multiplier- X5. The potential Multiplier is now automatically used.

oh cool, a discount Uber power. Fuck that guy, he beats up hookers. My power isn't even as good as his. wait. isn't it better? it doesn't just affect skills, but powers too. I frown.
[You get 1 week in the Hyperbolic time chamber. No time will pass outside.] I sigh in relief.
instead of falling and breaking my legs, I am transported to a white space with an hour-glass in the center. I take a deep breath and pray I have enough time to at least get strong enough to fight contessa. who Am I kidding? It's fucking contessa the single minded precog who wins. End of story. I'd need a brute rating that can bounce bullets even before getting there to survive. She'll just bring a bigger gun if I'm strong enough to survive that though.

Day one of training.
without any distractions, I take inventory of the room. I notice there's a basket full of sensu beans and some normal food. A bed, and a strong smelling soap in the bath. after taking a step towards the outside of the void that is the Hyperbolic time chamber, I notice that I am a lot heavier than I was before. I even feel heavier than I did when I was fat, an 3 hours ago from my perspective. I work up a sweat, doing pushups, situps, and stretches, squats, jumping jacks, Running in place. and other crazy exercises. I hope this week is enough to get my strength up to atleast a point i can survive small arms. Doubtful though.
-----
Day two of training.
"I swing my sword right round baby right round like a record player right round right round."
----
Day three of training.
"Squats squats squats squats squats squats! EVERYBODY!!"
------
day four. Rest day. I lounge, bored, but sore. I only remember the sensu beans after 5 hours of just being in pain like a moron.
I then get to swinging my sword again.
Day 5
It's leg day!!! never skip leg day.
Day 6 I go deeper into the chamber noticing my strength has increased enough that I can go slightly further in, maybe another 10 further towards the uncaring white void.
day 7 I meditate hoping to find my Ki. No luck.
the day ends and--[Your ratings are mover 2 brute 2 thinker 1. good luck.]
One minute later, I'm falling towards the ground looking at that damned sign again.
FUCK. I land easily, and then start running in the direction away from brockton bay at maximum speed. about captain America running speed of 65 miles per hour. I hear a whistling sound and then Nothing.
I'm starting to get irritated. This isn't working.
[You have gained 3x potential multiplier, your base potential is now 15x normal human.]
[You have gained 7 more days in the Hyperbolic time chamber.]
[You have gained knowledge of all leg based martial arts. (age of wushu.)]
Why does this feel like a punishment?
