Chapter 3: Chapter 3: Reading that Grants Power
[You gained 3 DEX for doing Squats continuously]
══════
After resting for a few minutes, he started doing sit-ups.
══════
[You gained 2 VIT for doing Sit-ups continuously]
══════
[The skill [Uzumaki Vitality] has been awakened because you have more than 100 VIT!]
[[Uzumaki Vitality] (Passive/Active) Lv1 EXP: 0.0%]
It is a technique that allows the user to have extraordinary physical endurance and robust health.
50% increase in HP regeneration rate. 20% increase in VIT amount. 15% increase in physical resistance. 15% increase in physical defense. 50% increase in the effects of HP-related skills. Converts every 50 HP into 50 MP.
══════
HP: [2,523/2,523]
Just looking at the HP increase, he was already amazed. Not to mention, his HP regeneration increased from 50 HP per minute to 75 HP per minute.
This was the amount he passively healed, not to mention that if he learned a healing jutsu... Considering that it becomes a skill related to HP, it would still have a 50% increase in usage. Or even if he opted to exchange MP for HP, thus healing quickly.
'My intelligence is also very close to surpassing the 100-point mark...' he thought.
If VIT was able to trigger such an ability, who knows if the same will happen with INT...
Thinking this way, Tanaka already had a vague idea of how to increase his INT without the need to level up, which so far, he presumed he would only level up when he killed, just like in games where you gain EXP by killing monsters.
Sitting on the floor while dripping sweat, Tanaka did not feel tired mentally or physically.
However, he still chose not to continue training his physique, but rather, he went to take a shower before going to the study room.
══════
With a thick book in hand, talking about ninja history, Tanaka read continuously.
It wasn't as if he had great interest in the world's ninja history, as he knew most of it from the anime he watched, although reading the book now, he knew a bit more with more details.
══════
[You gained 1 INT for reading a book continuously]
══════
Seeing the notification, he rejoiced. It was like a child seeing their favorite candy. His eyes sparkled as he smiled.
'Very well, just 1 more.' He thought, refocusing.
Several minutes later...
══════
[You gained 1 INT for reading a book continuously]
══════
[The skill [Uzumaki Chakra] has been awakened because you have more than 100 INT!]
[[Uzumaki Chakra] (Passive/Active) Lv1 EXP: 0.0%]
It is a technique that allows the user to have an extraordinary amount of chakra (MP).
100% increase in MP regeneration rate. 40% increase in INT amount. 30% increase in magical resistance. 30% increase in magical defense. 90% increase in the effects of MP-related skills. Converts every 50 MP into 100 HP.
══════
"..." Tanaka was very surprised.
"Hahaha!"
When he came to his senses, he laughed out loud.
If Uzumaki Vitality made him happy, obtaining Uzumaki Chakra made him want to dance in the study room.
"Tanaka-kun, are you okay?" At the door, Akane appeared, looking at him, concerned.
"Yes, I just..." He lied: "I read something now that made me laugh out loud."
"Ohh, I was surprised since you don't normally laugh this way." She said: "What did you read that was so funny?"
"This..." He felt like he had dug a trap and fallen into it: "Actually, thinking about it, it wasn't that funny..." He said, embarrassed.
"Mm, I see..." She didn't ask more, changing the subject: "Ah yes, I'm going to the convenience store, do you want me to bring something for you?"
"No, I'm fine, thank you, Akane-san." He replied.
After she left, he sighed.
He then looked at his MP and clicked.
[MP: [1,622/1,622]: 14 MP per Minute]
'Both my MP had a substantial increase, and my passive MP recovery increased a lot too.' He smiled as he stretched.
When he stood up, Tanaka could feel himself overflowing with power. It wasn't a matter of an absurd increase, but maybe because the quality itself improved? He wasn't sure, however, now he felt that even if he went up against the ninja who attacked and severely injured him while he was returning from the Leaf Village, he would now be able to win the fight while coming out unscathed.
In the room, he drank a glass of water, feeling invigorated.
══════
In the study room, Tanaka kept reading until late at night when Akane called him for dinner.
══════
[You gained 5 INT for reading a book continuously]
[You gained 1 WIS for wise ideas continuously]
══════
'Oh?' The last notification was a surprise. Until then, he still didn't know how to get WIS attribute.
The fact that he has a habit of constantly thinking and having ideas while reading, thus generating a WIS point, even if only after gaining 5 INT, was a pleasant surprise for someone who expected to gain INT points, always welcome.
══════
January 3rd, Wednesday. Freezing wind.
Wearing more clothes than usual, when Tanaka went out to train after having breakfast, he started noticing the people of the clan and village.
Most of the adults in the Uzumaki Clan were above level 30, while most common civilians were between levels 5 to 15.
Those who were ninjas, especially elite ninjas, he was unable to see the level of most of them. A peculiarity he understood while observing the level of those he watched was that after level 50, he couldn't see their level.
'So, it's like those games when the level difference is too big, and all you see are several question marks...' Tanaka began to understand.
This simplifies a lot of things. Even who he would need to avoid in a confrontation.
Even though his stats were exaggerated for someone who was only level 1, he wasn't foolish enough to believe he was strong enough to deal with those who are level 50+.
Standing on a four-story building, Tanaka looked at the village, which seemed incredibly beautiful and prosperous, and sighed thinking that possibly everything would become history when attacked by ninjas from various villages.
Even aware of this, he managed to remain calm, and the initial fear he felt when thinking about these things dissipated as quickly as it came.
At the training site, surrounded by trees and not far away a waterway was in sight.
'I should try to unlock the skill of walking on water and trees later.' he thought.
