Chương 12: System Upgraded
A new day has started, sun rays shone in Rei's room waking him up.
Rei woke up feeling lazy but suddenly he remembered something that made him active again.
He went to the bathroom quickly and freshened up before his dad did. He tried his best to go to the bathroom before his dad because nobody would want to go in after him.
He shivered just thinking about it.
Anyways, today he was excited because his system was going to upgrade.
Before sleeping the system had gone offline for an upgrade.
He opened the system interface with anticipation.
[system reactivating….]
[system online….]
[System Upgraded]
Rei opened the system interface with anticipation to see the new changes.
[Mission] [Daily Quests] [Status] [Shop]
He saw a new tab available on the interface.
Rei clicked the [Shop] tab curiously.
[Shop
Weighted body suit (30 Pounds)
Temporarily Raising a Stat Serum
Training Equipment
...]
There were all kinds of things in the shop.
Looking at the shop items Rei wanted to buy everything.
"How can I buy items from the shop", asked Rei curiously while scrolling down the list of items available in the shop.
[Host can purchase items using coins. You can get coins through daily missions]
Rei nodded taking this information seriously.
He opened his status interface.

Rei smirked seeing the result of his reward.
There was a new category about coins in his status.
All his stats increased by 0.5 points because of the level-up.
What shocked him the most about the level-up were his stats. He had to do hardcore workouts every day to increase his stats previously but with just a level up his stats increased and he didn't even have to do anything.
This made look like exercise was a waste of time.
He shook his head trying to erase these negative thoughts.
Rei had to think about what way would he purchase things from the system.
"Coins...", thought Rei.
He decided he would complete a daily mission today for coins because he wanted to buy something from the shop.
Stretching he got off his bed and changed his clothes to his gym outfit. He's wearing the same outfit as before because now Rei had stopped caring about his outfit thinking that it was a waste of time to decide on an outfit beforehand.
He exited his room and went downstairs.
He received 'good mornings' from his family when he entered the living room.
They all ate breakfast and then after a while, Chiaki drove Rei to the field. This was Rei's daily routine for now. It will change when he moves to the dorm for obvious reasons.
Arriving at the field Rei opened the system shop interface and scrolled down the list of items it had.
As Rei was thinking of buying an item a notification popped up.
[Host has been rewarded a gift from the system for upgrading it. Would you like to open it?]
Rei was excited reading the blue screen. He said, "YES".
[Host, has gained 10 coins.]
Rei smirked seeing his reward. He was grateful that he had received coins for his reward. Which made it easier for him to buy items from the shop.
Rei wanted to buy something cheap since he didn't have many coins. The reason he was buying something now even though he didn't need it was because he wanted to see how the transaction would be processed and how he would receive the item.
He saw many awesome items for baseball he wanted to buy them thinking they were a must-have. He didn't even know he needed the items.
Rei finally found something cheap in the store.
He clicked on the item wanting to know about it and its price.
[Compact adjustable Tire-
A tire that can be adjusted to any weight and can fit into your pocket. When finished using the item press the button hidden inside the tire to shrink it. It can shrink to the size of your pocket. You can enlarge the tire by attaching a rope to it. Can be used while traveling.
Price- 1 coin
BUY NOW!!]
Rei pressed the big red button recklessly as soon as he saw the price of the product.
"What a steal", he thought.
[Purchasing 'Compact Adjustable Tire'. Are you sure you want to buy this?]
"Yes", said Rei enthisastically.
[1 coin deducted…..]
['Compact Adjustable Tire' successfully purchased]
[The item has been placed in your inventory safely.]
"Wait…. I have an inventory", thought Rei flabbergasted. He didn't even know he had it or else he would have used it every day for so many things.
Before he thought of several stupid things, he could use the inventory for a blue screen popped up.
[The inventory can only store items bought from the system shop]
All of Rei's dreams shattered after reading that one line.
He sighed disappointingly.
Since he wanted to access his inventory, he opened his system interface.
[Mission] [Daily Quests] [Status] [Shop] [Inventory]
He saw the new tab [Inventory] and clicked on it.
A blue screen popped up in front of him that had several cubes in them.
Rei felt like the cubes were infinite. He tried scrolling to the end, but new cubes kept popping up.
Giving up on trying to find the end of the inventory he saw the item he bought from the system in the first cube.
He clicked on it and a small tire-looking object pixelized in his palm.
"What is this….", thought Rei when he saw the tiny tire in his palm.
He freaked out seeing this tiny tire. He thought that the system might have scammed him.
"Did I lose my money over this?", thought Rei squinting his eyes at the tiny tire.
"Oh, didn't the system say that it was adjustable", thought Rei.
He took out his usual tire rope and tied it onto the tire in his palms. It was frustratingly hard to tie the rope to the tiny tire.
It took Rei several tries in several weird positions to successfully tie the rope.
Rei gasped heavily after he successfully tied the rope.
The tire enlarged to a car-size tire which Rei normally used.
Rei attached the tire to him and started running.
After 10 minutes he was on the ground breathing heavily.
"I…. really…have…to work on my speed", he thought.
He decided to work on his speed all week before moving to his dorm.
Rei ran with a tire attached for 4 hours while taking many breaks before his mom came to pick him up.
When he reached home, he ran to his room.
He freshened up and changed his clothes before hitting the bed.
Rei decided to check his status before sleeping since he had purchased something today, he was curious about the changes.

Rei nodded seeing the changes in his status.
It seemed like he gained 0.2 points in speed because of the training he did with the tire today.
Closing his status, he fell asleep on his bed excited for the day school started. He couldn't wait to meet everyone on the team, especially Sawamura.
