He threw yesterday’s thoughts back in his head and focused on the things around him, the sun already rising from behind the trees, All the goats moving in their own direction. Few gave a glance toward him and then walked away. But for now, Yuji has no interest in going anywhere. He wants to know more about the thing outsider. Only by knowing it, he can feel at ease.
In the last two days after he found himself in this world, he heard the word 'outsider' many times. Because of that, he decided to complete the daily mission here and wait for the elder goat here. The elder goat is the only one he has a good relationship with, and maybe he will receive the answer he wants from the elder goat.
From that day onward, sprinting, eating, and jumping became Yuji's daily routine. He would wake up as early as possible, do some running, relax a bit, do some jumping, relax and eat, and after that, probably take a shit and continue this circle.
This became his daily routine. Even though he started doing other daily missions, he couldn't bring himself to do a head-butt. It reminds him of the painful experience he had gone through after Gildir attacked him.
As he did all those exercise, he noticed some increase in stats. But he wasn’t satisfied with it. Because the speed if stats increase the way it is increasing now It will take years before he could even challenge an adult goat.
After some thinking he found out the reason why his stats wasn’t increasing. The reason was simple he wasn’t pushing his body to it’s limit.
If weight pulling can increase someone's strength and running can increase someone's stamina on earth, who said it won't increase it here? After all, runners, football players, and many other sports players who need more stamina to win, challenge their physical capabilities, and with hard work, they are able to increase their physical strength and stamina.
He decided not to check his stats for few days and push his body to it’s limit. He decided to not check stats because he doesn’t wants to be disappointed or waste time thinking over his progress over and over.
From next day, he would wake up early and start running with all of his might and only stop when his legs couldn’t run anymore.

When he became too exhausted and can’t run anymore he would start chewing grass. But as he pushed his body to it’s limit when he runs, it also back fired. He start feeling intense pain at the night. Because of that he couldn’t even sleep for a few days. But things became normal when his body get used to the daily training.
As he kept following this routine numbers on daily mission started increasing. But he also received bad eyes from the other goats. Few even talked about him.
"What is this outsider doing?"
"Did this outsider gone mad?"
" There must be something wrong. What is he trying to do?"
Yuji received many types of reactions from goats, But surprisingly, no one approached or did anything to him harmful.
What surprised him the most was that he didn’t receive any skills or any system notification from the system. This made him a little heartbroken. If he doesn’t get any essence, how would he reach the next level?
He ignored all his useless thoughts and focused on his After few days when he checked his stats he noticed growth in his strength rose from 0.50 to 0.75 The same goes for other stats, which are growing steadily except agility.
He felt he could run a little faster, but agility only increased from 0.4 to 0.5.
After a little thinking he realized his mistake. Agility actually represent speed and agility. Only thing he is doing is just running in straight line, if he wants to increase the number he have to move his body.
He couldn’t help but curse at himself, because of his lack of attention. As a goat his natural advantage should be agility, and he was ignoring it. Not only he ignoring his agility, he also ignoring his only defense, head-butt. But to do that he first needs to made his mind and control his fear.
------
After thinking for sometime Yuji get started once again. He didn't stopped until he felt pain all over his body and soon, words started to spread among the other goats. Even though no one said anything till now, one of the goats came today.
Yuji, who was chewing grass, raised his head and looked at the goat. His looks have changed, he isn't as fat as before, because of continuous practice he has burned a lot of fat, making him look like someone malnourished. After all, goats of his age, besides grass, should be drinking their mother's milk.
"What type of calamity are you summoning, you damn outsider? Running all day long, eating all day long, jumping all day long. What did you think no one would notice?"
Yuji just kept listening to the goat and kept eating grass. He didn't reply back. He doesn't want to start a chain reaction now. Who knows, someone might come after him if he talks back.
( Imagine a little kid goat lying down on the ground, munching grass with a bored look, and listening to another adult goat shouting. Sometimes, I truly wish to understand what my goats are trying to say )
"I am telling, just because you are small, and the elder said not to do anything, you think I'll let you go? I have been seeing what you are doing. I am warning, heh, if I see you do those things again, I swear in the name of god, I'll kill you. This is the last time."
" Damn, that old goat." Yuji couldn't help but curse the old goat in his heart if that old goat had just shown his face, even for once. It's been five days since he waited for that old goat to show up, but in the last five days, that goat hasn't even shown his face for a single time. He doesn't even know where to find that old goat. If only that goat showed his face for a single time, nothing like this would have happened.
After shouting at Yuji for a few minutes, that goat left.
