in the last month
"...."
"Me and my big mouth"
I decide to just forget everything and try my new ability "dream scape" and that's by...
"SLEEPING" I say bouncing on the bed.
...
..
.
I open my eyes in a totally white open space.
"Hello?"
"System ?"
[๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐?]
"Is this the dream scape?"
[๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐]
"..."
"Tell me how to use it"
[๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐ข๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐ ๐๐ ๐ ๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ข ๐๐ ๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐]
I close my eyes and try to imagine my home and then open my eyes.
"Well home sweet home"
I find myself in my home.
"I still don't know how this is gonna be useful but-"
I suddenly wake up to my alarm.
"Huh?didn't I just sleep? Is the system bugged?what the hell is this!?"
[๐ท๐๐๐, ๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐ ๐๐ ๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐ ๐ ๐๐๐๐]
"Bullshit! This ability is useless!" I throw the pillow at the system panel and it passes through it.
[๐ท๐๐๐, ๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐ ๐. ๐๐๐ "๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐" ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ข ๐ ๐๐๐ ๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐ข ๐๐๐๐ ๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐]
"Sigh, whatever"
I look into the phone and open the social media.
...
..
.
"Hey guys did anyone hear about li fang? He entered ki yang academy!"
"Yeah he and lu fang, his sister! I heard they are in the elite class!"
Li fang and lu fang are the two young master and mistress from the fang family they both have incredible talent and they were the third year students last year.
"No way man! Ki yang academy and elite class? That's broken! Especially that ki yang academy is a 3rd tier academy."
The academies are divided into 5 tiers with the fifth being the weakest and the first being the strongest. To our small city going to a 3rd tier academy is technically impossible.
I grib my phone tightly.
"In this lifetime I will be the best, the strongest, the top. Either I go to one of the 1st tier academies or don't go to any at all!"
I close the phone and sit in a lotus position.
"Time to level up"
...
..
.
A month later.
Mi yung gym.
"Holy shit!"
A muscular man cursed.
People were gathered around a single person in the gym.
"998!"
"999!"
"1000!"
The crowd around the person cheers and the person let's the 1000 kg weights.
"Brother Aziruth, you are crazy"
A muscular man with brown hair and a brown beard spoke.
"Yeah what martial level are you now?2nd? 3rd?maybe even 4th?"
"Brother Aziruth changes a lot compared to the first time he came"
"I did?"
"Yes go look at yourself!"
I walk towards a mirror and when I look at myself I curse.
"Holy crap! That's me!?"
I look in shock at the muscular man who isn't a muscle freak but he is decent and with his handsome face he is dangerous to women.
[๐ณ๐๐๐! ๐ฒ๐๐๐๐ + ๐ท๐ถ]
Yeah the system is still here...
...
..
.
A woman was training in the gym watching from a distance she had dark black hair and red eyes.
"Interesting..."
I return home after a while and sit on the bed.
"haah a month passed.. Only a week remained"
"Stats"

"With my stats I should be a 2nd tier martial artist now"
I put my hands to my chin and think.
"The exams are only one week later I have to prepare for theย virtual world and the various abilities"
In the past, the exams used to be in the real world and death was called an accident
But with time, the people and the families of those who were killed grew more anxious until it was about to become a disaster so a new law was initiated.
Every school cannot be built without the virtual world cabins used for exams.
And with that the number of death dropped to zero and the exams became more flexible and new levels arose.
The exams consist of strength test by advanced Technological devices, speed, etc.
A competition, and hunting monsters in virtual dungeons.
"Well I need a weapon and new abilities.. Oh! System, where is the deleted ability?"
[๐ต๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐]
"Learn!"
[๐ท๐ถ ๐๐๐๐๐๐]
"Wait what?"
[ ๐ท๐ถ ๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐]
"But didn't you say I will get it after a major breakthrough? I passed by dozens!"
[๐๐ข๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐ ๐ ๐๐๐ ๐๐๐ ๐๐ ๐๐๐ ๐๐๐ ๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐]
"Bastard"
[๐ฝ๐, ๐ข๐๐ ๐๐๐]
Veins bulge on my head.
"Oh, you learned how to talk back, huh? "
[๐๐ข๐๐๐๐ ๐ ๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐ ๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐]
"I don't know if that's a good thing"
[๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ "๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐" ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ข?]
"... Recover"
[๐ณ๐๐๐! ๐ฒ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐ ๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ข "๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐"]
I immediately test the ability and fire covers my hand.
"Cool"
"Time to get useful abilities I have waaay to much slots"
I stand up and go to the kitchen and grab a knife.
Gulp
"I hope it works"
I cut my hand.
"Fuck! It hurts"
[๐ณ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐ ๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐ ๐ข๐๐ ๐ ๐๐๐ ๐๐ ๐๐๐๐? ๐ท๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐:๐ป ๐๐๐๐๐๐]
Past week I got injured while cooking, and while I was looking for a medicine, the system appeared.
I was surprised but who will refuse free treatment?
"Heal"
That's what I said back then but after a while I thought..
I shouldn't always relay on the system in healing...
Because in life and death battles the points might end and so will my life so I have to develop my own regeneration.
"No"
The system panel disappears.
I treat my hand and leave it to heat itself maybe, just maybe, I will get a regeneration ability?
In the past month I developed my skills a lot, because after all, I don't have anything else to do.
I go to the nearby pharmacy down stree and open the door.
Ring.
The bell over the door rings.
"Hello! Customer what can I get for you?*
A lively girl with a round face and pink hair speaks.
"I would like to get a... Cough, rat poison"
"Oh, you have some rats. sir?"
She asks as she goes to get the rat poison.
"Um yes"
'I just called myself a rat'
"Here you go"
"Thanks"
I take the rat poison as I give her the money.
"What happened to your hand?"
She points at my right hand that I cut earlier.
"Oh, this? It's nothing just a cooking accident"
"Do you need some help with it?"
"No thanks"
"Ok take care!"
She waves at me as I leave
I go back to my apartment and sit on the couch.
Gulp.
"Looks like I am really gonna do this,huh?"
I open the bottle of rat poison and start drinking it.
Gulp.
Gulp.
Gulp.
"This tastes like shit!"
I throw the bottle in the trash.
I hold my stomach.
"Ahh, quickly system"
