4 Yales Training (1/2)
As Yale read it, he understood that he was left with only one path to advance, he needed to increase his Dexterity by at least one point.
”Increasing my Dexterity by one point shouldn't be difficult, I can think of several ways to do it, but I want to do it the most optimal way. If I can increase it to ten points instead and the next Quests follow the same pattern, I can obtain a High-grade Magical Talent.”
The system immediately replied.
”The most optimal way for the user to increase the Dexterity points would be to practice mortal's archery, and at the same time it would increase the Strength points.”
Indeed, the traditional archery of mortals was a very good way to train Strength and Dexterity, and as he can only increase his Dexterity to continue using the Quest Menu, it was a very good option. Furthermore, he wanted to increase his Strength points; he felt ashamed of having only one point.
The system seemed to know that as it suggested the mortal's archery. Usually, only the ones who want to become archers trained mortal's archery as a foundation.
However, it wasn't unheard that some kids wanted to train it before knowing their Innate Talents, it was still good training for the body, and less painful than other mortal's training like the sword or the spear, although it was looked down upon just because of that by the pure warriors.
”It seems that I need to start practicing archery, tomorrow I will ask the servants to apply for the clan's archery lessons.”
With that said Yale was determined, he stood up and finished paying attention to the Last Wish System and at the same moment the system reacted.
”The tutorial has finished, the user may repeat the tutorial at any moment.”
As Yale expected, the tutorial explained all the actual functions of the system, so the tutorial should end. He also suspected that when the system unlocked more functions, there will be a proper explanation for them.
Yale didn't want to spend more time in the library and went back to his room. Of course, he was ”caught” on his way by one of the servants and got scolded; Yale didn't mind, he was still processing the things happening to him and making plans for the future.
***
The next morning, Yale told his servants that he wanted to practice archery, the servants were surprised, but they did it without asking anything, that was the relationship between Yale and the servants, there was no affection between them. For the servants to attend Yale was only their work, nothing more.
Yale also knew that even if he already requested it, he wouldn't be able to start right now, his position wasn't good enough to directly enter some archery classes without previous notice, it would take around a week to be able to start practicing archery.
However, even if he obtained immediate access to an archery class, he wouldn't be able to shoot an arrow with his puny strength, so he decided to use this time to exercise his body.
Yale tried to do some pushups in his room, but he wasn't even able to complete one before being exhausted.
”It seems that the system wasn't lying in the evaluation of my Strength points, I'm too weak, I always thought that doing pushups was an easy task when I read about it, but my body is completely unable to do it...”
Of course, that wasn't enough to stop Yale; he didn't have any equipment to train, so he focused on basic exercises, even if they were extremely tiring for him.
On the second day, Yale asked the system to inform him if any of his stats changes, and the system then set a notification alert to stat changes, but at the end of the day, Yale's stats were still the same.
At the same time, there was an unstoppable gossip within the clan, the clan's bookworm became crazy for physical training.
On the fifth day, Yale's training continued without results; his stats remained the same.
