Why are these values so low!? There is no way that this is normal, right?

"I have a question, Kevin-sensei. Is it normal for these values to be shallow?"

"Well, it depends on the type of life you lived in your previous life. If I recall, Earth is a place where only humans existed, and only a select few of them fought things. I'm guessing you were a person who didn't fight nor trained your body, meaning that these are accurate values. I bet those around you would have similar stats. Nevertheless, you shouldn't worry. They'll be raised in no time."

"Oh, okay..."

I'm still not convinced. Sure, I may get some good stats later, but I don't feel happy knowing that I have to start with crappy stats...

"Anyway, I'll explain more about these statuses. You may have noticed, but there is missing information within your status, like health or mana. Also, you can't see the level of your skills. This is because your Status skill is low. The skill will level up as you use it to activate it multiple times a day so that its level's up."

"To see other's statuses, you need the skill to be higher than there's by one level. For example, if I say Status Open Yemon, I'll be able to see your status. On the other hand, If you try to do it, nothing will happen. Moving on, skills are an imperative part of this realm and for being a hero. Skills allow users to do special effects or to work more effectively. For example, Chopping is a skill that allows one to chop trees. Now, you can chop trees without the skill, but the difference between one who has it and one without is big (50 trees vs. 10 trees a day)."

"There are six types of skills: Combat, Support, Life, Analysis, Magic, and Misc. Combat skills are battle-ready skills like swordsmanship. Support skills give special effects to the user or another. Regeneration is classified as a support skill. Life skills are skills for daily uses: like movement or cleaning. Lifestyle is a skill most people have and combines many life-related skills (movement, jump, etc.). Analysis skills help the user understand certain things or gives the user information, like Scan. Magic skills are skills related to magic. And Misc skills are those that don't fit within the other types."

"Now then, I won't explain the parameters to you until you level up Status to at least five. For the rest of today and the next couple of days, you'll constantly be using the skill until it raises in level. Speaking about levels, normally, skills start at level 1 and cap at 10. Each level has its own name or ranking: Beginner, Novice, Intermediate, Expert, Master, Kingly, Supreme, Ancient, Godly, Mastery. These rankings also mean how good you are at the skill."

"Using a skill is dependent on the action of the skill. There are three types of actions: Passive, Semi-passive, and Active. Passive skills require nothing and are always active. You can deactivate them too, but it requires a small amount of your endurance. Semi-passive skills can be in form of skills that have infinite duration, you turn it on and it stays on until turned off, or by a released action, a skill that once on does it effects and then automatically turns off (like teleportation). Either way, it takes your endurance whatever you do."

"Active skills typically can last for infinite duration, like passive skills; however, it constantly drains your endurance. Once your endurance depletes, the skill deactivates. Also, some skills require mana or ki too. If they do and they deplete before your endurance does, the skill will also deactivate."

"Moving on, I'm sure your last teacher told you about your schedule, but she might have forgotten to tell you about the 2nd half of your stay here. If you manage to survive until then, you'll be switching from learning to actual combat, which affects your level. A person's level is how experienced they are and can also mean how strong they are. As you kill monsters, you gain experience. Once the threshold is passed, you'll level up, which will increase your stats."

"There is a cap. Civilians of any world can only reach level 100. The exceptions are the heroes and Gods. God's cap is level 1,000,000. We can't get anything higher than this. Heroes, on the other hand, typically increase to 200. This isn't always the case, though. The real reason why it increases is the duration they stay here. For example, the average duration for a hero is 10 days. Each day they stay here, their status's cap raises by 20. For you... since you will be staying here for 100 million years, your cap is 730,000,000,100."

Seven hundred and thirty billion is my cap?! That is about 730,000 times higher than the Gods!

Awestruck, I stare at Kevin with widening eyes as he notices that our time is about up.

"Hmm? Oh, it seems our time is up for today. There are still ten minutes left, but you should use it to open and close your status. I'll be leaving for today. Your next instructor should arrive after the ten minutes have passed. Anyway, I'll see you tomorrow. Bye."

Stolen content alert: this content belongs on Royal Road. Report any occurrences.

"Right, bye..."

I say goodbye, still affected from hearing my cap. After he leaves, I began opening and close my status as instructed while thinking about my cap. So, if my status raises when I level up, how high can it be to reach the cap? How OP will I be in the future? Man, this is getting exciting!

Without realizing it, my next instructor enters the room. It takes me a second, but I instantly get up and greet her when I see her.

"Ah, sorry for the delay. Nice to meet you, my name is..."

However, she interrupts and yells at me.

"Too slow! You should have paid attention and gave your greeting immediately after I walked into this room. You are bowing wrong too! It should be a 45-degree angle, but you're bowing only 40 degrees! That is a 5-degree error! REDO!"

"Ack?! Um... Thanks for coming! My name is Yemon. It's a pleasure to meet you."

I do my best to make a 45-degree bow, but I'm unable to be certain what angle I'm making without any assistance or measurer.

"Ugh, it's better, but still not perfect. Each day you fail to do this simple greeting, I'll yell in your ear at my max volume. Understand!"

"Yes, ma'am!"

"Good! I'm the Goddess of Nobility, Allie. I'll be teaching you about many things from Nobility to manners. Sadly, I'm not good at speaking in Japanese, so until you learn Ancient Tones, you'll be learning manners from this book."

Allie moves to one of the bookshelves and pulls a book similar in size to the ancient tone's book. She brings it and slams it down onto my desk.

"I'll be leaving for today. Tomorrow, you'll be tested on the entire book about manners, so take this time to read it! Understood?"

"Yes, ma'am!"

"Good. Now then, I'll take my leave."

She gives me a slight bow and exits the door. Knowing her personality, I quickly start turning pages, attempting to read the entire book within these three hours.

...

Time flies, and I'm still reading the book. As I continue to read, the door knocks, and my maids enter the room.

"Sir Yemon, it is now time for your break."

"Sir Yemon!"

Without knowing they entered, I continued reading until one of them interrupts me by yelling near my ear. Due to loss of concentration, I jump up. After noticing who it was, I relax and apologize.

"Sorry, I guess I was too focused on reading again."

"That's okay. We just wanted to let you know before you accidentally miss it via reading. It would help if you used this time to read or sleep since you are human. You probably won't have a fun time with the next instructor, so we highly suggest sleeping or eating..."

"Oh, alright. Thanks for your help. I'll get to that immediately. Can you please show me the kitchen? I am somewhat hungry."

"Certainly."

After putting the book away, I head downstairs with the maids and enter the kitchen area. The maids told me to take a seat while they prepare some food. Since that's a maid's job, I didn't try to complain. I sit patiently waiting for my food.

Ten minutes later, the food is complete. One of the maids brought me a plate of food while the other poured some tea for me. I accepted both of them and began digging in. Afterward, I hand my dishes to the maids and look to see what time it is.

"Master, it's almost time. You should head towards the front door and greet your next instructor."

"I understand. Thanks again."

I head towards the entrance of the house and await my instructor. After a minute of waiting, someone starts knocking at the door. Since the maids are still in the kitchen, I walk up and open the door while greeting the person.

"Thanks for coming! My name is Yemon. It's a pleasure to meet you."

"Likewise. I'm Ryuma, the God of Swords. I'll be your sword instructor later in the years, but at the start, I'll be your trainer to get you in shape. We'll begin our lessons outside to start. Let's not wait any more time and start immediately."

Ryuma, the person in front of me, is a muscular person with a sharp-looking face. He has two swords strapped to his side. Not wanting to anger this person, I do as instructed and follow him to the outside.

We walk towards my backyard and past the pool. The area is open and perfect for doing simple exercise practices. Once there, Ryuma turns around and begins yelling at me.

"Let's begin! GIVE ME 3,000 SITUPS RIGHT NOW!"

"Huh?!"

"DID I STUTTER?! 3,000 SITUPS!"

"B-but!"

"6,000 SITUPS!"

"Y-yes, Sir!"

"Hmm? Did you stutter just now? 6,500 situps! Understand?!"

"Yes, Sir!"

Not wanting to add more situps to my list, I quickly fall and begin doing situps. While doing them, my mind wanders into its own little realm.

What in the world is this person?! How does he expect me to do 6,500 situps! AHHH!!!

I scream in my head while pursuing to do more situps.

...

"Ha... Ha... Ha..."

"What's this? Giving up already? You have only done 130 situps, and you are already about to pass out? Thirty minutes have passed too! At this rate, it'll take you the entire time to do situps!"

"Sorry, Sir... Ha... I can't... Ha... Continue... Ha..."

"As if! Restore!"

Suddenly, my body starts glowing. The pain from doing situps starts going away, and soon my body is back to perfect condition. I look around in a surprised manner.

"Stop daydreaming and go back to doing situps! That was my skill, if you're that curious. I'll be using it on you each time you collapse. Note that your pain will go away, but the initial pain and memory of it won't. I know some who go crazy from the mental damage that it presents, so I shouldn't use the skill. Understand now? Then go!"

"Yes, sir!"

Without any delay, I return to doing situps. After hours of working, I have made it to 1,000 situps. I only managed to get this far using Ryuma's Restoration skill. That said, I do waste time waiting for him to use the skill, but when I'm full of energy after being restored, I'm able to do extra situps that make up for the wasted time.

Anyway, I continue to do more until Ryuma stops me.

"Alright, times up for today. You only completed about 3,000 situps during this ten-hour time frame. Tomorrow, you'll have to complete the remaining 3,500 within the ten-hour time frame. Anyway, see you then."

I attempt to bow and say my goodbyes. Afterward, I collapse onto the floor and begin to fall asleep due to my instant fatigue.

...

"Master!"

"Wake up, please!"

"Huh, huh?!"

I instantly sit up after hearing two familiar voices. When I do, I see both my maids at my feet.

"Sorry, I fell asleep outside."

"That's okay, but your next class is about to start. You need to hurry!"

"Huh?! Oh, alright. I'll go immediately!"

"Yes, but before that. I think you should change clothes. Your current clothes are drench in sweat."

"Oh, sorry about that. I'll do that first."

As instructed, I hurry inside and change clothes. Afterward, I follow my maids back to the third floor but into a different room that I was in earlier today.

Alright, I might be exhausted and a bit hungry, but it's finally time for the best part of my entire day. I'm going to learn magic!

Excited to learn magic, I made my way to my seat and wait for my instructor.
