7 Gift(1)

I quickly deduced who the previous owner of this body was.

He can only be described in one word: trash. Ah, full-on hardcore trash.

"Goddamit!"

I just thought his appearance is trashy, but his personality is much trashier.

'Fuck. 'I'm at a loss for words to describe him.'

I let out a sigh.

"What else can I expect from such a doomed individual?"

Maybe I'm a better person than this moron.

This guy is involved in a lot of things that his peers never think about or do when they are not wealthy.

"What the hell does this guy do to be in debt for 400 million U at his age? When I was his age, I was quite good as well."

The more I learned, the more enraged I became.

"Come on! Give me a break. Now I got even more debt to repay than in my previous life."

"Oh, my poor soul."

I believe he gambled away all of the money he borrowed and lost it all. He was then apprehended by loan sharks and beaten to death. After that, he most likely died. And I was able to enter his body.

"So long for dreaming of being a rich guy."

Sigh.

"Just how the heck he got admitted into Horizon?'"

By the look of it, his parents are not rich and his rank evaluation is only up to D rank. It nearly cost 100 million U to study at Horizon. That's way too much money. So only those who have a higher background or those whose rank evaluation is more than that of C would join.

By knowing his personality by now he has not borrowed that money for university purposes. As a result, his family will need to come up with the funds to send him to Horizon.

I think he wouldn't have treated his family properly.

Well, that's on the bright side. If he loved his family as much as I did, they wouldn't be alive today.

Unlike him, I can't allow my family to suffer. I always carved for a family.

Yes, Now it's my Family.

"So a total of 400 million-plus 100 million a grand total of 500 million. Sigh."

"I should prepare myself."

****

I have a rank evaluation up to D, that's the minimum qualification required to join Horizon.

Because of the cost, the majority of students at that rank will not enroll at Horizon. After graduation, people with higher ratings will be chosen by larger guilds. This is especially true for Horizon students.

There are numerous universities in the human domain other than Horizon, yet it is the best.

Horizon has the best quality and qualifications because the majority of the teachers are high-ranking heroes. As a result, it is without a doubt the best university.

"Oh, I guess I forgot something."

Just now, I recall what the god said as he was departing.

'Ha, You can update one of your stats. That's my gift for you.'

Something like that.

"Let's see."

--> Profession :

[Swordsmanship lvl.1]

All the stats are petty low.

Thomas Grey's stats are nearly identical to those of S rank. That is why he is considered a true prodigy. Of course, he conceals the most of his ability. But I'm aware of that.

'Should I invest in strength and mana capacity?'

Sigh, forget it.

As far as I'm concerned, I'm not bound by the fate of this world, so I don't believe I'm restricted to D rank. However, it is contingent on my ability to evolve and the amount of effort I put out, and it is costly.

And having strength more than that of MC doesn't get me any good. It would be quite bothersome.

I would be dragged to battle field inevitably.

All I desire is a peaceful life with my family and the strength to protect myself and my family from external threats.

So, in order for it to happen, I need to get wealthy.

'Why should I bother fighting when I have enough money?'

Unlike the protagonist, I have no sense of vengeance or anything like that, nor do I have a rightful nature or a helping character.

With that, I was able to limit it down to three choices.

Intelligence, Perseverance, and Luck.

Charm is also tempting, but who cares as long as I am rich. Hahaha...

These three cannot be improved through effort or money; true talent is necessary.

But luck is the one ticking me out of all. All I know is Luck can only go up to the B rank but not more than that. I did not read about anyone having more luck than that.

All the suffering I had to undergo in my previous life is due to my lack of luck.

I took a deep breath.

"Ha, here goes nothing."

So I decided to update luck.

Some time has passed after that.

Suddenly vibration started to occur in my body.

I can feel some sort of power flowing through my body.

I began to sweat profusely from head to toe.

'What's going on?'

Suddenly, a severe pain began to strike my heart.

"Fuck what is this?"

I clenched my heart before falling down.

****

I woke up after some time.

I instantly examined my body and found that everything was normal.

My heart isn't hurting at all.

"Just what the heck was that? Really just how many times I have to faint in a single day."

Sigh.

I quickly opened my status to check just how far my luck has increased.

"Ha?"

"This?"

I was completely shocked.

I couldn't believe it.
