Capítulo 3: School
We arrived at the school, after walking for about 15 minutes.
We arrived at 8.10 am, but classes will start at 8.30 am so there is still plenty of time left.
''Brother, I have PE first class, see you later!'' my sister said, and after that ran towards girls locker rooms.
''Take care!'' I told her, but she probably didn't hear me while she was running at full speed already.
'So energetic.' I thought while wondering where does she get that much extra energy
''Ichiro!'' I heard a loud yell behind me and before I managed to look behind me, I felt a stinging pain on my back.
''Argh...''
''Why did you hit me?!'' I yelled towards the young boy who hit me, he looked around my age with green hair and grey eyes with cute looks.
''Teehee, because I wanted to!'' he said and ran towards our classroom with a smile, I remember him from my memories and his name is Takayo Iwata.
Our relationship is classmates, not really good friends, but someone we can talk with comfortably.
What I have seen so far from my memories is that there are multiple nationalities in the same country and that included different kinds of names,
Our family is Japanese and so is Iwata's.
But of course, they don't know what Japanese means in this world.
...
I opened the door and walked through it while entering the classroom.
After I entered the classroom only a few took glimpses towards me, but only for a second, and then started chattering with their friends.
As far as I can see through my memories is that I wasn't that popular, but also I have my own group of friends.
''Did you watch yesterday's match? It was insane!''
I heard my classmates murmuring about some kind of martial art tournament, which to me sounded amazing.
I reached my seat which is a front seat on the left side of the classroom and sat on it to prepare for the class which will start in few minutes.
''Yo Ichiro, did you finish the game yesterday?'' my friend Mark Alleyson asked me and I remember from my memories that he lent me the game and I have been trying to finish for a week now and finally finished it last night, which is also the reason why I felt so tired after getting my memories back.
Previous Ichiro really didn't care about sleep.
''Yes I did, but I forgot to take it with me - I will give it to you tomorrow.'' Of course, I couldn't remember after such a hectic morning.
''Alright!'' He said and sat down because the classroom door opened and a middle-aged man walked from it who had a stoic-looking face with a small beard.
Our first class was math, which was very easy for me with my previous life memories, I decided not to pay attention but instead started looking at the system.
'System.'
[Name: Kurogami Ichiro.]
[Martial Rank: Unranked]
[Age: 15]
[Level: 1]
[SP: 0]
[Coins: 0]
[0/100 EXP]

[Stamina: 7]
[Vitality: 10]
[Quests]
[Shop]
[Lottery: Unlocked at Level 5]
______________________________
I pressed toward Quests, but nothing appeared, so I have a hunch that it randomly gives Quests.
Then I tried Shop and it showed only 4 things available for purchase.
[Taekwondo Basic Mastery: 150 Coins]
[Karate Basic Mastery: 150 Coins]
[Weapon Basic Mastery: 160 Coins]
[Random Box: 200 Coins]
___________________________
I already learned Taekwondo, Karate, and few Weapons during my last life so those didn't really interest me much, but Random Box seemed interesting but too bad it costs Coins, which I don't have.
I don't even know how to earn any coins or EXP.
I could ask from the system though...
'System, how can I get Coins and EXP?'
[System is only Level 1 at this moment - the only way is to defeat opponents and finish Quests]
'How can I get Quests?'
[It is random, there might be Quest to defeat a strong opponent or save a cat, it is random at all times, but of course when System-level ups, it will be different]
Hmm, I think I need to join Martial Arts Club and fight opponents there.
My body is still weak and I need to improve it...
*Beep*
[New Quest]
[Body Strengthening]
[Push-Ups 0/100]
[Sit-Ups 0/100]
[Squats 0/100]
[Plank 0/10 min]
[Run 0/10 km]
[Reward: 200 Coins, 100 EXP, 15 Stat Points]
[Penalty: Bad Luck for 24 hours]
[Time Limit: 30 Hours]
_____________________
'Huh?' I was just thinking of improving my body and suddenly Quest pops up
[Quest will give Host Quests if there is a need, just like now]
'I see... penalty is bad luck? That doesn't sound too good...'
'Rewards are alright, with those 200 Coins I can buy Random Box and those Stat Points are very important.'
'System, what can you get from Random Box?'
[Martial arts, Stamina/Strength/Agility improvement pills, techniques, and choices will increase when system levels up]
'What if I have my own martial arts style and use it, will it be registered to the system?'
[Yes, but the system will show ways to improve it.]
'Hmm... My current body can't stand any of the techniques...'
The iron style needs a strong body to use. Ichiro in his past life had hands that could slice through human flesh. Punches that can bend metal and Kicks which can break wall in half.
To do that. The body needs to be strong including flesh and bones.
Ichiro never stopped improving his physical body during those 35 years. That's why he managed to create Iron Style.
Ichiro's current body is currently thin. Not unhealthy, but not very strong either.
If Ichiro uses even one of these techniques currently... He would break every bone he uses to use that technique.
To make an example.
One of Iron Style Techniques is called Iron Lance.
Ichiro uses his hand like a spear to stab towards the person and that move alone allows Ichiro to cut through a person's body like with a real lance.
But that is only if he has an ordinary person as an opponent. If he faces someone with years of fighting experience with a strong body, he can still cut through his body, but not fully.
Thanks to the extreme conditioning of the Iron Style. Ichiro possesses hands that are as tough as steel and fingers that are capable of punching through solid steel. His joints are also extremely strong and durable; they are at times solid enough to be used as a spear. To instantaneously break his fingers is also nigh-impossible.
But to reach that level, might take an entire lifetime, but if Ichiro has the assistance of the Martial Arts System... it could be a different story.
Like if he improves Vitality, he won't lose HP as much. So it is related to the body's strength.
*DING*
*DING*
'Oh, class is already over.' I thought to myself, I stood up from my seat and I left towards Martial Arts Club to register.
After walking about 10 minutes, I finally reached there and after opening the door to the hall where Martial Arts Club is held, I can see few figures fighting currently and one of the club members is acting as referee
After school, this place would be filled with people without a doubt, but since everyone is still at school hours, there aren't many.
I started walking towards one of the figures in the hall who was silently sitting in one of the rooms and he had buzz-cut hair and body with bulging muscles with a height of 195cm.
''Excuse me?'' I said to him after I reached him.
''Yes?'' He asked with a questioning face.
''I am here to join the club.''
''Alright, let me give you one of the papers to sign you up, and then you will just deliver it to one of the teachers.'' He said to me and took one of the papers from the room behind him.
''Thank you!'' I told him with a bow, I sat down at the nearest table and started signing up everything needed, like do I have any experience which I wrote as yes and of course name and age needed to be put.
After that, I once again said my gratitude towards the tall man and left the hall to find one of the teachers.
It didn't take long after walking towards where the teachers are usually gathering during breaks, I simply gave my application paper to one of them and I was done registering.
The school was still going, so I can go there after school ends, to do my club activities.
I walked towards my next destination which was History class, but at least previous Ichiro was a decent student so I knew pretty much all of the things teacher taught us, but I still focused, because this world is very different from my previous ones and I figured out that between all continents there are many islands, like millions of them, where a lot of strong beasts were residing.
But since every continent has strong military power, they don't really need to worry about them, but few times every year few flying beasts try to sneak into one of the continents, but they won't last even a day.
That says a lot of their military powers, but if maybe thousands of land beasts invade one of the continents, it could be disastrous.
There are currently 8 ranks for mutated beasts, they are.
1 Rank - Savage Beast
2 Rank - Fury Beast
3 Rank - Rage Beast
4 Rank - Deadly Beast
5 Rank - Soul Beast
6 Rank - King Beast
7 Rank - Emperor Beast
8 Rank - Tyrant Beast
Tyrant Beast is currently strongest rated, but there are rumors that even stronger beasts are located, but everyone who has encountered them has died without being able to fight back.
Humans have their own ranks too.
1 Rank - Martial Novice
2 Rank - Martial Soldier
3 Rank - Martial Leader
4 Rank - Martial Captain
5 Rank - Martial Commander
6 Rank - Martial General
7 Rank - Martial King
8 Rank - Martial Emperor
9 Rank - Martial Monarch
10 Rank - Martial Saint
11 Rank - Martial Demi-God
12 Rank - Martial God
13 Rank - Martial Half-Divinity
14 Rank - Martial Divinity
Martial Divinity is the highest rank currently, which no one has risen to yet.
The world has only one Martial Half-Divinity currently, but for him to reach Divinity is impossible already at this point, if he can't reach that before age of 40. Then it is impossible.
And the man who is Martial Half-Divinity is currently 45 years old and is already past his prime.
Only growing weaker from now on,
And Tyrant Beast can fight Martial God in equal terms.
Each rank is determined with its own tests.
Like to become Martial Novice, you need to defeat Wolf in 1v1.
Yes, you heard it right. You need to defeat a wolf, but it's not one of the beasts, it's a regular animal.
Ichiro currently doesn't even rank, because previous Ichiro would have got defeated very quickly.
But of course, tests aren't life-threatening, but sometimes accidents happen and the higher you try to climb rankings, the more dangerous tests will be.
Beast rankings will be determined by how much energy they release from their bodies because they have some kind of beast core inside them which allows them to make insane growths in power.
It isn't surprising for Savage Ranked beast to suddenly reach Rage rank within one night.
But that needs good luck for the beast.
Also in this world, the air seems to be somewhat different from the previous one.
In this world ordinary human is way stronger than in my previous world.
The air in this world is somewhat strengthening a person's body and from age of 18 to the age of 40 humans are at the highest point of growth.
Since I am still 15, I haven't reached the point of growth, but once I do, I will grow stronger by a lot.
And from age of 40 afterward, growth will stop completely.
