Pick Me Up, Infinite Gacha

# 22

22. Day dungeon (1)

I opened my eyes.

The sky above the room was pale gray. Judging by the brightness, it’s early morning.

I got up from the bed and washed my face with water from a bowl. Chloe had brought it and she used to get water every morning and put it in everyone’s guest room.

When I came out to the lobby, the scent stimulated my nose. The clock indicated 5:45 am. I went into the dining room and grabbed a baked potato from the table.

“Are you awake? Good morning.”

said Chloe, who was reheating the stew in the kitchen.

I saw the sky

Where do you see that good morning?

“Are you leaving early today?”

“okay.”

You cannot miss a day of training.

There was also a need to test the skills acquired in yesterday’s battle.

“Why don’t you share a meal with other people for a day? Isn’t it okay if you eat alone like that?”

“If you feel like it.”

I took a bite of a potato and left the kitchen.

As the number of people in the waiting room increased and order was established, several rules were created.

The first is to gather together at mealtime. After a while, the awakened residents will appear in the lobby.

Of course I was an exception.

“…”

Recalls Chloe’s eyes, who were presumptively speaking brightly. It was swollen red.

Come to think of it, did Gide and Hanson follow suit? It is not easy to prepare 20 meals at three o’clock every day. I remember that the trio often helped her, who rarely rested.

With that thought in mind, I headed to the training center.

At the training center, Jenna was sweating and wielding a dagger.

He said he slept a lot and always came out later than me.

“What kind of wind was blowing?”

I clicked my tongue and said.

“Because I don’t want to die!”

Jenna did somersaults and lowered her daggers in succession.

It’s not that surprising anymore. Jenna had a much better sense of balance than the other heroes and was agile. Enough for me to fold a number. Since he even acquired the skill of moving his body quickly, he would be able to ride and run on various terrain features.

‘Compared to him, Aaron ….’

Despite surviving the battle last night, he did not get any skills.

The only skill he still had was a low-level spearmanship.

I kicked sandbags on both my ankles and wrists, respectively.

All four weigh about 10 kg. I slowly started running through the training ground. Jenna caught up next to him.

Even though I run at a fairly fast pace, I am not out of breath.

He threw a sandbag while running. The effect of exercise is barely felt. It was the same with push-ups.

I stood upside down and bent my arms.

this works too

I feel the weight little by little.

As the level goes up, the body gradually goes out of the realm of ordinary people. All parts, including muscle strength, stamina, and reflexes, have been greatly strengthened. If I go back to Earth like this, I might be able to stare at athletes as well.

The body, which was the body of an ordinary adult, has strong small muscles attached to it. When I took off my clothes, I could see a clear six-pack. It is not a bodybuilder’s bulky muscle, but a combative muscle that only a martial artist can see.

“Oh my gosh.”

This time, I tried push-ups with my left hand off.

I feel like exercising now. At the same time, the unstable body demanded balance. This is a great posture to improve both strength and balance.

‘Status window.’

[Han Israt(★) Lv. 9(Exp 54/70)]

[Class: Novice]

[Strength: 23/23]

[Intelligence: 11/11]

[Stamina: 21/21]

[Agility: 21/21]

[Possessed Skill: Lesser Swordsman Alcohol (Lv.5) Pain Resistance (Lv.2) Calmness (Lv.3) Berserk (Lv.1)]

Strength 3 Stamina 1 Dexterity increased by 1, Intelligence decreased by 1.

In total, the total growth value is 5. Since the last level up, the growth value has been fixed at 5. It was an encouraging figure that could only be seen in a 3-star.

Skills have also risen significantly.

In one battle, he had leveled up his skills five times. This is called Skill Awakening, and it was a rare phenomenon for heroes during battle.

‘not bad.’

The current growth trend is not bad.

Everything is going according to plan except for the fact that I got an unexpected skill called berserkness. We plan to gradually find out how calmness and madness will harmonize.

Standing on a handstand, he bent and stretched his right arm.

It is the same effect as lifting 70 kg with one hand. Even so, the right arm did not stop moving.

Even though his stats were still only 20, what kind of changes would happen when he passed 100 later? Like martial arts masters, you might be able to tear through walls or pierce iron plates with your fingers.

Just in time, the level approached 10. The timing is also perfect. You can get the materials needed for advancement in the daily dungeon that was opened yesterday.

By the way…

“What are you doing?”

I said standing on my head.

My shirt was down because of my posture, but Jenna was gently stroking my exposed abs.

“I want you to look coveted.”

“Aren’t you going to clean your hands?”

“If you let me touch it, where does it burn? It’s not like it wears out.”

“Get your hands off it because it’s worn out.”

I used the recoil of bending and straightening my arms to turn my body over.

I can do this level of acrobatics even now. ‘

Anyway

, this guy…’

To go through something like that yesterday and be so shameless the next day.

That’s not what I’m talking about.

Maybe Jenna’s way is the answer.

Don’t get caught up in the past. The important thing is to do what you have to and can do now. If you don’t forget that simple fact, you can keep your cool even in a place like this.

In that respect, Zena’s greatest talent is not her marksmanship or body movements, but her mentality.

Today’s basic physical training ended relatively quickly.

There was still quite a bit of time left before lunch, but we went straight into weapon training. Now was the time to invest time in weapon training rather than strength training for efficiency. We got our stance as always.

“It looks like you’ve finished your preparations, but can we go today as usual?”

I nodded.

Jenna moved about 10 meters away from me.

A short bow is held in her hand. It is a weapon for practice, not for practice. Arrows also had sharp points.

The practice of blocking the arrows flying with the shield was tiresome.

The practice of using a sword while blocking arrows with a shield has reached the completion stage. A shield could not have been so effective at blocking arrows. When I reached a certain level, I couldn’t practice.

So I threw down my shield.

What he is holding is a single sword.

If the arrow lands incorrectly, you die.

I know it, and I know it.

“I’ll go.”

“and.”

ping!

An arrow that flies with a cheerful sound.

For a moment, I felt as if time had slowed down. The arrow whirled around and was sucked into my right chest. The sword in his right hand moves naturally. Take an effective posture even if you don’t intend to.

The arrow split as it flew.

“One more step.”

“going!”

A second arrow came flying. Keep an eye out. The sword swung diagonally broke the arrow in half.

The next arrow was unannounced.

Neither Jenna nor I exchange useless words. In silence, only the sound of arrows being shot and cut filled the training ground.

When I split the 15th arrow in half, several people entered the training center. We paused for a moment.

“Oh, hello.”

When our eyes met, he said awkwardly.

I gave a rough answer. They settled into a corner and started drilling with clumsy moves. Aaron wasn’t mixed in there.

“Aaron is not coming.”

“Leave it alone. I’ll see if it’s struggling in the room.”

Normally, it is normal to come out earlier than me and train. It was the same with Dicka. The two showed particular enthusiasm for training.

It’s not a round round round like they do.

I know what kind of mindset they train with.

Not to be strong. It was to avoid synthesis. When the sky was dark, they fluttered like this, and then when the sky brightened, they swung their weapons in a hurry.

‘They should have died instead of the two yesterday.’

The two seemed to have potential. If it had grown a little, it would have been useful.

When my expression contorted, Jenna smiled awkwardly, perhaps noticing the mood.

“We train, train!”

“Shoot.”

ping!

The sixteenth arrow flew. This time it’s the lower body. cut down

“Hee, heeik…”

“Don’t worry. They’re originally like that.”

People are babbling.

I didn’t have time to worry about them either.

‘Certainly, the reaction has become faster.’

Swordplay is a skill that encompasses both a sword and a shield. The highest efficiency was achieved when using a shield and a sword at the same time, but there was no significant penalty for using only one weapon.

My body moved faster than I thought. As if breathing, the sword reflexively drew a trajectory.

It is still a low-level technology.

I remembered Shay’s swordsmanship on the first day I came here, piercing the goblin’s throat with precision, as if measuring it with a ruler. Compared to that, it’s a long way off.

Perhaps Shay could split an incoming arrow in half.

In this world, even a small amount of training can have a huge effect.

On Earth, it would have taken at least a year to reach the current level.

Remnants of shattered arrows began to pile up beneath her feet.

Several arrows grazed his forearm or leg, causing blood to splatter. Even after getting hurt, Jenna did not stop. Immediately the second and third arrows fly.

I was told to shoot with the thought of killing me. Just follow the word faithfully.

If I die absurdly in this kind of training anyway, that’s all I’m going to do.

A few stood at a distance, watching me and Jenna.

It will look crazy.

A third arrow comes flying. The location is between the eyebrows.

If you get hit by this, you will recover and you will die unconditionally. He snapped his wrist and bent his sword to the left. The arrow hit the blade and flew away.

The arrow lodged under the feet of the onlookers.

“Ome!”

“Have you seen it?”

When I growled, people returned to their seats.

His gaze was fixed on this side even as he swung his weapon at the scarecrow. Those guys didn’t even do the most basic physical training properly.

I think I want to send a message to the master and eat them all up, but at level 9, I don’t even get a message from them even if I try to eat them. The same goes for Jenna and Aaron. You will be able to see the effect only at the level of a digital camera.

This time it’s 2 speakers.

Two arrows flew at short intervals to the chest and neck. Quickly swing it twice to knock it out.

After today’s training, the Master will connect.

The time is estimated at 10:00 PM. I have already figured out Amkena’s life pattern. That’s why I asked for a watch.

‘I’m going to go to the dungeon every day.’

I organized the necessary materials in my head.

In the meantime, the hand that wielded the sword moved busily.
