Two new skills, "Basic Defense" and "Basic Strength," have appeared.
"Skill Tree, are you developing new menus...?"
It's unclear what conditions increase the available skills, but let's check the new skills for now.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
"Basic Defense"
Passive Skill
Increases defense status
First, solidify the basics.
Do not overestimate your defense.
Human defense is fragile, and life can easily be extinguished.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
"Basic Strength"
Passive Skill
Increases strength status
First, solidify the basics.
Strength solves everything. Power.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Over the past month, I've gained a lot of basic knowledge about dungeons and explorers. Defense is a very important ability. Survival rates change depending on how high your defense value is. Sadly, humans have no means of increasing their defense status. Generally, defense can only be supplemented by thickening your equipment. This is not the case if you have defense-type skills. The teacher mentioned this in class.
Without hesitation, I decided to unlock "Basic Strength."
Huh? Are you saying you should normally unlock defense because you don't want to die?
What are you talking about? Read the skill description for "Basic Strength."
It says power.
Strength solves everything. A wise person said that.

"Phew, I worked hard today."
I washed away the sweat in the shower, feeling refreshed and good, and threw myself onto the bed.
The Skill Tree has many unknowns. There are items I don't understand, and it's a mystery why something like this grew out of my arm. The point missions are strict and tough.
But... I grew.
In this past month, staying in the same place, I took two, no, three steps forward today.
That gave me a great sense of satisfaction.
Before I knew it, the outside of the window had brightened.
The sunlight shone on my face, waking me up.
"Is it morning already... I fell asleep."
I felt cheerful.
I was overflowing with vitality, as if I could fly in the sky.
Something was different from my usual self. That's how I felt.
As I tried to get out of bed, a sharp pain ran through my entire body.
Muscle pain. I knew what it was. The 50 km run yesterday had brought serious damage to my body. This is bad, very bad.
"I'm going to be killed by muscle pain..."
I searched for movements that caused the least pain and managed to get out of bed.
I had to be careful or I might die.
I slowly headed to the washroom and washed my face with cold water.
I opened the Skill Tree. I was getting the hang of operating this tree.
If I force it to grow rapidly, it splashes, but if I am careful, it just drips blood from the wound. This should be fine to open even in the washroom.
Looking at the status, it shows "HP 100/100".
I must have recovered by getting a good night's sleep.
The reason I felt so cheerful this morning might be because my HP was only 1 yesterday. In other words, the Skill Tree's awakening caused me to lose a lot of blood, which made me feel terrible.

The point mission is back.
Maybe I can do it once a day.
If I complete the mission every day, I can get skill points every day.
That's great. Is this what they call point activities?
I looked up at the sky in excitement.
Crack. My cells shatter.
"Ouch... Muscle pain, are you trying to prevent me from completing the point mission..."
But I can't afford to miss the daily point mission. I would rather die than miss the skill points.
"Don't underestimate me. I am Akaya Makoto, the rebel talent... With this mysterious Skill Tree's power, I will seize the future."
I carefully stretched, easing my muscle pain.
As my muscles loosened, the pain lessened, allowing me to move.
I went to the dining hall, had a buffet-style breakfast, and dashed out of the school gate early in the morning.
Today is also a holiday. My body is much slower than yesterday, but if I take my time, I should be able to complete a total of 50 km.
With strong determination, I ran around the vast perimeter of Hero High School.
━━ A while later
Sorrow, war, nuclear weapons, disease, and the perimeter.
There are many things in this world that we would be happier without.
Evening. Near death, I returned to the school gate and collapsed.
Running around the perimeter with muscle pain was too harsh.
At first, I was running at a decent pace, but I was eventually forced to run at a pace like an old man's walk.
I was pushed to the limits of my body and mind, and I almost gave up many times.
But I did it. I did it.

Skill points... I've been waiting for you, hehe, hee-hee.
Now, what should I allocate them to?
With my battered body, I returned to the dorm and opened the Skill Tree while taking a shower.

It's time to sleep. With the fatigue of running and the feeling of fulfillment from the skill points, I drifted off to sleep.
Power... Strength solves everything.
