‘Wait I have stats, didn’t see that before, what even areabout this, another status screen appeared in front of hith 4]

[Dexterity 3]

[Endurance 8]

Looking at these nue theh his Endurance was, that his Strength and Dexterity were extremely low

‘I kneeak, but that weak?’

‘So I have Health, which seey, which is used up just on a day to day basis, but if I start fighting aency to heal th had to s like speed, agility and reflexes I alad to know that the only thingso into a …I don’t even want to say the word It feels like bad luck or soht that just occurred, Gary ondering what the best way to use the stat point was At first hislike dexterity would beopeners strength against theround tournahts

He was still unsure howout for now Using some of the money, Gary stopped by a twenty four hour convenience store and bought soy was low and he knew to replenish it he needed to eat, plus it didn’t hurt to treat hiht so no one was around and this ti into the steaks so quickly that he didn’t realise how much his body needed it

[Daily quest complete]

[5 Exp received]

The quest to consurams of meat had already been coht, but this time the exp awarded was half that of before

‘Gary, I hope what I’ isn’t true’
