Chapter 33 [Bonus ] Derick Is Not Normal

-Ding!

[The Training System has been updated to version 2!]

[The skill, Training Ground(XXX), has been integrated as a system feature of the Training System. You can now use that skill without any mana usage whatsoever as the system will bear the energy cost for its activation.]

[The skill, Universal Training Body(U), has been integrated into the Training System's attribute training feature! As a result, all of your attribute increase has become universal. In other words, increasing your strength attribute via training will also increase the stats of other attributes.]

[For example, if you increased your strength attribute and gained 1 stat in strength, then the rest of the attributes will also gain 1 stat. Furthermore, the stats of all of your attributes have been divided and allocated throughout every attributes so that all of your attributes have the same stats. You can check your status screen for more information.]

Receiving those series of system screens that was accompanied by the system's explanation, Derick was notified of his training system's update.

'System, open the status screen.'

After receiving Derick's command, a status screen appeared in front of Derick.

After checking his stats, Derick was astonished, "The average of all my attributes before was 9 stats! Did it increase?"

[Of course it did, duh. Otherwise, you won't get an increase in your stats if it didn't increase.]

[And if you are wondering, the reason for that is your mana awakening as well as obtaining the Universal Training Body. Both factors had increased your average stats to 12.]

Hearing the system's retort, Derick scratched the back of his head as he showed a foolish grin on his face.

To be honest, he had already prepared for the worst after he became a system user. He thought that he would become a slave of the system but so far, he had yet to encounter that problem.

Maybe in the future, he would have to worry about that problem. But for now, Derick knew that he could take advantage of the system as the system took advantage of him. In other words, it was a win-win situation for Derick and the Training System.

The system hasn't broken the status quo of their cooperation yet so Derick planned to make as much use of the system during the descent of the dimensional gate. He was well aware that without the system, his strength would be far too weak to defeat those monsters who invaded planet earth and protect his loved ones.

So even if Derick was cautious and remained vigilant towards the system, he was still grateful that the system offered him power. He knew that he wasn't special. The system could have chosen anyone and that was why, he was grateful for the power that he had received from the system.

The system had gave a brief explanation to Derick about the origin of his mana awakening which was result of the descent of the dimensional gate. So Derick knew that he needed to become powerful if he wanted to protect his loved ones.

'System, can you show me the description of every skill that I have obtained aside from the former skills that became system features?'

-Ding!

[No Pain No Gain (S)

Skill Description: As long as you suffer, you will gain something in return.

Skill Effect: Increases the probability of luck being in your favor as long as you are in any form of suffering.]

[Masochism Is The Only Way (SSS)

Skill Description: Masochism is the only way.

Skill Effect: When the skill is activated, 'masochism mode' is in effect. When masochism mode is in effect, all attributes of the user will double at the price of the user's pain receptor being doubled as well.

Skill Effect 2: Receiving damage while in masochism mode will increase the attributes of the user infinitely. As long as the user is in masochism mode, the damage accumulated will be converted into an increase in attributes and the effect stacks. But the effect is only temporary as the time the user disables the skill, the stacked attribute increase will reset.]

[Muscle Flex (F)

Skill Description: You trained, trained, and trained. Now you got those muscles. Flex em!

Skill Effect: Upon activating the skill, the user's muscles will enlarge and bulge until clothes are torn and ripped, revealing the muscles of the user. By doing so, an opponent who is considered normal will have their eyes bleeding and their focus disrupted.]

"Fooo~~"

Reading the descriptions of his skills, Derick couldn't help but whistle. He even ignored suffering from pain and all that downsides since to him, it was normal for an overpowered skill to have that downside.

'Wouldn't I become overpowered with all of these skills? I even have a mental skill which is my Muscle Flex skill!'

By no means, was Derick normal. His head has a few screws loose.
