Chapter 23: The Test

It was only a few days ago, where Gary couldn’t do any type of physical activity and now, he was planning to scale the side of an aparther than he had ever before and grabbed onto one of the ledges

He could feel his rab onto the ledge with both of his arress further up, was if he leapt up to the next sill, or if he jumped to the metal pipe and atte the first ju his body over, but, at the last second, he hesitated Still his body weight had swung in ertips had left the sill

“Aw crap!” Gary shouted, as he had completely missed the metal pipe and had fallen onto the solid hard concrete

“That freaking hurt” Gary said, atte fast though and his energy points were going down quicker than when he didn’t use the skill

‘I guess, even if this skill does et used to it’ He started to flex his fingertips a bit and could see that the skin on it had slightly ripped as well, and his are, but he could feel the pain going away quickly

‘I guess, double th and stats isn’t so impressive If I can improve my whole-body shape and increase my stats, that will also make the skill y points

‘Using the skill itself takes up ten energy points, and it almost feels like an adrenaline shot, but then I have less points to heal h, it won’t use the energy points initially

‘But other than thinking of that… I don’t really have a goodof that said person, Gary al to scale the wall in the first place He thought if he got up high, thenthe girl

It was a fantasy that was short lived

Canceling the skill was easy, and Gary soon just stuck to what he was doing before as he exited out of the alleyway and atteood neas there didn’t seens of trouble Gary wasn’t sure if it was because it was so early in the h they had reached the school and, at least knowing this place was safe from others, he could take off his hood, but he didn’t stop to follow the strange girl

‘da her anyway? I was just going to protect her, right?’ Gary thought, and eventually found himself on the third floor, where the senior students would be He never expected her to be a senior student Just as he was about to turn away though, he saw the girl talking to someone else he knew, and it looked like the two of theht Without a doubt it was Kai, but ould these two know each other? He thought that anyone ould know Kai would also be involved in the underworld like he was Thinking about this,attacked by the gang, could it have soetting any closer and being found out, Gary would just have to leave it at that,his way back to his own class

Just outside though, he ed to bump into someone that he was actually pleased to see

“Oh Gary!” To, and nearly stepped back after seeing Gary

“What’s theokay?” Gary asked, as he walked past and entered the classroo on the desk He was happy to see To he still had left of his ordinary life, and he was hoping talking to him would remind him of the time before all this craziness

Torabbed it for a second and ondering just hoould get Gary to wear it or touch it Even if he could, or if it would do anything
