Improvement

The young boy stood as he gazed upon the scene before him. It was both familiar and unfamiliar, a mix of memories from the past and the excitement of something new.

With a mischievous smile, Aiden decided to test the effects of the potions he had obtained. He took off running along the sidewalk in the garden, curious to see the impact they would have on his abilities.

Aiden decided to come out at this time for a few reasons.

First, he wanted to check out the effects of the potions he took and see how they've changed his body. He figured it would be good to have an excuse for any noticeable differences in his appearance.

Second, he was curious to see just how powerful he had become. Even though it was just a modest increase of 5 points in strength, he wanted to see how it translated into real-life situations.

And lastly, Aiden came out to register himself at the society's gym. He wanted to take advantage of his increased strength and work on building his physique.

There was a personal reason behind his decision, which made him even more enthusiastic.

As Aiden ran, he felt a rush of excitement as he realized his speed and endurance had improved significantly.

"The potions are really amazing," Aiden thought to himself, impressed by their effectiveness.

"Of course, they are amazing. After all, they were made by the best alchemist in the Divine Realm," a proud voice echoed in his mind, unmistakably belonging to Chuu.

"You mean the god made these potions?" Aiden asked in surprise, his assumption that they were created by the Goddess of Creation or one of her creations.

"Yes, the Goddess of Creation requested the Alchemy God to create these potions before she granted you the system. The same goes for all the other items and skills in the shop. They were specially made upon the goddess's request and are stored in a special space from which you can purchase them," Chuu explained.

Hearing her explanation, Aiden was shocked, nearly stumbling as he ran. He quickly composed himself, then thought of something important and asked, "Does that mean the items are in limited quantity?"

"Yeah, don't worry about running out of things like potions or pills like items," Chuu reassured Aiden. "The goddess has got your back. She can refill those consumable items whenever needed. However, for other stuff like equipment or special artifacts, there might be a limited quantity available. So, make sure you choose wisely and make the most of what you've got. But don't stress too much, there's plenty to go around!"

"Alright, thanks for the advice," Aiden replied, nodding. He finally stopped running and directed his gaze toward the building that stood before him.

He had been running for about 20 minutes, and although he felt slight fatigue, it wasn't much. Aiden couldn't help but compare his current stamina to his past life, where he could barely run for 15 minutes.

Aiden, still amazed by the significant difference in his abilities with just a 5-point increase, decided to ask Chuu for an explanation. "Hey, can you tell me why the difference is so big, even with just a 5-point increase?" he inquired.

Chuu provided an explanation for the significant difference in Aiden's abilities with the potion. "The reason for that is the special effect of the potion made by the god. It allows you to utilize your stats to their maximum limit. Normally, humans can't tap into the full potential of their stats under normal conditions. For example, if someone has 50 points in strength, they may only be able to effectively use 40 to 45 points. However, they may be able to access the full 50 points in rare life-threatening situations. But with the potion, you can use the full power without any limitations," Chuu explained.

"Wow, that's something I never expected," Aiden remarked, pondering Chuu's explanation.

After the conversation with Chuu, Aiden redirected his gaze toward the building before him. As he looked closer, he noticed the words "GYM" emblazoned on the entrance.

As Aiden approached the gym, a mix of excitement and nervousness welled up within him. In his previous life, he had never set foot inside a gym even in his last life he never step foot inside.

As Aiden entered the gym in his society, he looked around and noticed a reception counter. Since it was his first time there, he approached the counter to inquire about the registration process.

As Aiden approached the reception counter, he couldn't help but be captivated by the girl's beautiful features. Her jet-black hair framed her cute face, with big black eyes and a small, adorable mouth. She wore a pink top and a white skirt that perfectly suited her petite figure.

The girl greeted Aiden with a warm smile and asked, "Hey, are you new here? How can I assist you?"

Hearing her, Aiden snapped out of his gaze and replied with a smile, "Hey, yes, it's my first time here. Could you tell me more about the gym and if there's any registration process?"

She nodded and replied, "Yes, there is a simple registration process. Please follow me to the computer." Aiden followed her

"Can I have your name and age, please?" the girl asked politely

"Aiden Stark, 17 years old," Aiden replied,

She nodded and typed the details into the system. "Alright, next I need your date of birth and house number," she said.

Aiden gave her the required details and continued answering a few more questions as she finished up the registration process.

She stood up and said, "Alright, it's all done."

He asked, "Are there any fees?"

"Nope, no fees!" she replied cheerfully. "Each apartment on this floor gets 2-6 free memberships, depending on the size. Your house had 4, but now there are only 3 left. Here's your membership card!" She handed it to him with a smile.

"I see, thanks!" Aiden said with a smile. He turned to leave but then turned back to the receptionist. "Hey, could you give me some pointers on where to start? I'm kind of new to this and don't have much experience."

"I'm sorry, but I don't have experience with exercise myself. However, I do have a friend who comes in the early mornings. I'm not sure if she'll agree to help, but I can ask her for a few tips if you'd like," the girl responded with a pause "As for today, you can start with some basic warm-up exercises like pull-ups, push-ups, crunches, and others," she suggested.

Aiden gave her a nod and a smile, saying, "Thanks a lot for your help". He asked, "By the way, what's your name?" He realized that he didn't know her name yet.

She was slightly taken aback but flashed a smile. "My name is Anna," she replied.

Aiden returned her smile with a charming one of his own. "Alright, Anna. See you around!" he said before turning to leave.

As Aiden entered the gym hall he noticed a lively atmosphere with many young people engaging in various workout activities. The gym was equipped with a wide range of machines, from treadmills and ellipticals to weightlifting equipment and resistance training stations

Aiden found a less crowded area of the gym and began his workout routine, following the basic exercises that Anna had recommended. He started with some warm-up exercises like pull-ups, push-ups, and crunches to activate his muscle.

As a beginner, Aiden initially felt a bit stiff and uncoordinated during his workout. However, with each passing minute, he noticed his movements becoming more fluid and natural. The initial awkwardness gradually faded away as he gained familiarity with the exercises.

After a short session of exercise, Aiden decided to call it a day at the gym. Since his main purpose of registering was complete, he didn't feel the need to continue for a long time. Aiden took a brief rest to catch his breath and allow his muscles to recover.

Aiden swiftly exited the gym, noticing that Anna was occupied with someone else. As he left, he did something, he activated his Eye of Truth ability, briefly glancing at Anna.
