It was expected that my intelligence would be lower than the other numbers. So far, I’ve devoted everything to filling up the stats needed for the vanguard, and I’ve never made any effort to increase my intelligence.

[Intelligence 58]

But isn’t this a bit too much?! What level am I right now? It’s 58!

Shocked by the number being much lower than I expected, I inadvertently broke the pen in my hand and had to search through my desk to get a new pen.

Calm. Let’s calm down. If you think about it with common sense, there is no way that my intelligence, a rotten among rotten waters, is low.

okay. This is just a status window in the game. It’s just Lucy Alln’s stats. It’s Lucy that’s stupid, not me!

okay! It’s definitely like that! While I was rationalizing myself like that, I took my eyes off the intelligence stat and wrote it down on a piece of paper starting from the top of the stat window.

[Strength 105]

‘It’s my body’s capabilities right now.’

‘Uhm. The average adventurer is around 50 and the average knight is around 80. That’s a pretty high number, right?’

Even based on the characters in the game, this figure is quite high.

Getting over 100 before the end of the second semester vacation is possible only if you are an expert, even if you are not at the level of rotten water.

What happens if the water is rotten? If you ignore everything else and go all-in on one stat, you can reach 207, and if you realistically develop your character, you can reach around 130, but unless this world is beyond the monitor, it’s meaningless.

Because in the real world, you can’t force a character to do the crazy things you do in a game.

[Agility 91]

‘That’s because I didn’t train my agility as my main focus.’

Physical abilities are organically interconnected, so if you train one, the other will naturally follow.

However, that growth only follows the growth chosen as the main focus and can never be similar to becoming the main focus.

‘But isn’t this enough? ‘Because I’m a person who has no reason to be fast.’

Nevertheless, the reason I did not practice training related to agility is because there was no need to do so. For me, who has to hold on to my shield while on the front lines, all I need to do is secure a certain level of agility.

This thought seemed to be similar to my grandfather, who also did not take issue with his low agility.

[Stamina 121]

‘On average, yes.’

‘grandfather. Wouldn’t it be easier to think of it in terms of the Knights of Aln rather than any knight?’

Even though I was shamelessly talking to my grandpa, I tried to soothe my shock in my heart.

I expected that my physical strength would be high, but I never thought it would be this much. It was rewarding to receive training from the Aln family.

When I was training, I thought that rather than dying from an evil spirit, I would fall behind from overwork in the knights’ order, but seeing the numbers like this made me laugh.

I think I’ll try training a little more intensely in the future. And next is intelligence… No, let’s skip this for a moment.

[horsepower 75]

‘yes. ‘I guess so.’

Since I am a person who uses divinity to solve tasks that require magical power, it is natural that my magical power is not high. I’ve never had any training related to magical power in the first place.

But magic power that has never been touched is higher than intelligence, right? What’s the problem?

no. Never mind. That’s an error. error. It has nothing to do with me.

[Divinity 192]

‘grandfather. Even though I look like this, I am an apostle of the Lord.’

The divinity stat was abnormally high compared to the others, but it wasn’t that surprising.

That’s because I am the Lord’s apostle. The level of divinity has risen and the divinity is strong enough to cause changes in the physical body, and it is normal for this level to occur.

But looking at the high numbers makes me feel disappointed. When your original divinity reaches this level, you can go to the shrine or the church managed by you and perform various quests.

If I hadn’t been in a position where I had to avoid contact with the church I had given, I would have abandoned everything else and ran to the holy place.

[luck ???]

‘…I think so.’

That’s because it says something like this on the status window given by the poor god!

What on earth is ????! I’ve never seen a numbers game like this before!

What is it really? Is luck so high that it can’t be expressed in numbers!?

I’m not sure, but I don’t think we’ll get an answer if we hold on to this, so let’s skip it.

If you see that I get good grades when taking a test, it must be high. maybe.

The moment I stopped my hand thinking that, my grandfather made a puzzled voice.

But I ignored that voice. The moment I wrote down my intelligence level of 58, I could imagine what my grandfather would say.

‘…There is no such thing.’

I tried to ignore the old man, who was making an unpleasant laugh as if he had noticed something, and lowered my head to check the various skills I possessed.

An iron wall that protected my life from the moment I first set foot in this world.

The spirit of a hero is what enabled me to endure the hellish training and is still the most precious skill to me, even though the name has changed.

Overcoming fear helped me avoid receiving true education in the midst of various crises.

In addition, numerous skills filled the passive skill column.

As I was writing it down one by one on paper, my grandfather made a shaky voice as if he couldn’t believe it.

‘So, grandfather. ‘I am the apostle of the Lord.’

‘Wasn’t your grandfather similar? You were part of a group of warriors.’

Unlike today, when both good and evil forces were actively interfering with the earth, it was the group of warriors, including Grandpa, who took the lead in the war against the evil spirits. Naturally, the number of skills they possessed must have been considerable.

So, even if other people don’t know, I think my grandfather will be able to understand this.

‘What do you mean by that?’

no. Grandpa. How many times have I said that I don’t like being overlooked like this? I tried to show my irritation openly, but the old man didn’t open his mouth.

If it comes out like this, it’s hard to get an answer.

it’s okay. If it was really important, I would have told you.

I continued to move my fingers while grumbling and frowned as I checked my proficiency in various skills.

Most of the skills I mainly use had reached their growth limit.

ah. shit. Since when has it been like this? How much skill loss was there?

This is why I have to keep leveling up, but after destroying Nakrad, I became too complacent.

Once I get back to the mansion, I’ll have to start working on the level right away. Because we can’t accumulate any more damage than this.

As I was chewing my lips and filling out my notebook, I had to stop with one skill in front of me. The limitations of my skills forced my actions.

[Mesgaki]

My gaze upon seeing the name of the skill that threw me into this world could never be resolved.

How could he look at me with a smile when he had suffered so much because of the compulsory nature of the Mesugaki skill?

However, when I thought about how I had overcome danger and protected my precious people thanks to the ability of the Mesugaki skill, it was difficult to keep my eyes from rotting.

Does this mean love and hate? I was looking at the Mesugaki skill with subtle emotions and laughed when I saw the proficiency level written next to it.

[Proficiency A- (current limit)]

okay. Since this is also a skill, it is natural to accumulate proficiency, but I don’t know whether I should like it or not. No matter how you look at it, it doesn’t seem like it will have a positive effect.

Since I couldn’t get an answer just by looking at it, I had to take my eyes off the Mesugaki skill.

Then my hands were free again.

After that, I moved the pen for a while, closed the notebook, thought about what was to come, and realized that much of the story in the game I knew had become meaningless.

There are too many variables.

I don’t know what the church will look like when Fabi finds out that she has been recognized by the Lord.

It is difficult to guess what will happen on the side of the evil god who lost fire and darkness in just one year.

I don’t know what impact characters like Karia or the perverted apostle, variables that weren’t in the game, might have.

Prince 1, who seems to be different from what I knew, and Prince 2, who seems to have changed in many ways, are also variables.

The changes in the political situation brought about by the existence of the Aln family, including me, will also have an impact on the world.

If I had excellent political sense, I would have steered these variables in the direction I wanted.

Even if that were the case for me, it would have been entirely possible because the influence of the people around me was never light.

But I’m an idiot with an intelligence of 58. Even if I try to do useless tricks, the only thing that comes to mind is a picture of me tripping over my own feet.

Laughing out of self-destruction, I erased all the ridiculous plans that had been engraved in my head and looked at the status window.

Let’s do what I’m good at. If something urgent happens, the Lord will guide me on a quest, so I just need to develop the strength to overcome the crisis.

And for that, what we need to do right now is decide what stats to raise with the elixir.

If you think about it rationally, it is right to take the elixir related to agility to reach 100.

Unless you know exactly what the luck stat indicated by ??? is, raising your agility is a safe option.

I know that.

Intelligence bothers me.

no! What is 58?! 58!

If you develop your wizard character properly, you will reach 58 even before the midterm exam of the first semester of the first year begins, but why is my intelligence level now 58 before the second year?

I can’t admit it! I’m not that stupid!

How could a stupid person become a rotten part of Soul Academy!

okay. After all, it is right to increase your intelligence with elixirs.

The luck value indicated by ??? is definitely over 100. Even if that’s not the case, there’s no problem if you raise your agility level to 100 through effort.

After all, what’s so bad about being smarter? Being good at fighting is ultimately a matter of intelligence!

I was coming up with all kinds of reasons to drink the elixir of intelligence, but when I opened my inventory, I realized that I only had elixirs related to strength and stamina, so I slammed my head down on the desk.

Is this why my intelligence is 58?

…When the sun rises tomorrow, I have to go see the Newman family again. I have to ask about things related to elixirs, and I also have to ask where is the best place to match armor.
