6 200 Agility
Krez diligently trained, fearlessly fought, savored meals,and even took care of nature's call. As time continued its relentless march forward, he faced a diverse array of adversaries—from panthers and wolves to eerie skeletons and cunning snakes. Enduring the challenges of the forest for almost 2 months, Krez's stats and clothes reflected his impressive journey.
Seated on a rock by his pond, Krez donned an ensemble of black fur armor— a vest, long pants, and moccasin shoes adorned with green-striped snake scale bracers. The attire, snug but not as constricting as skinny jeans, showcased Krez's crafting talent. Beyond the visible layers of the armor lay snake scales discreetly attached beneath the fur, his two-layered armor promised an exceptional level of protection. It was truly a light weight exceptional armor.
Krez's dark brown hair flowed, reaching just below his ears, and he preferred a pulled-back style that showcased his straight hairline. A thin black bandana encircled his forehead, just above his brow, accentuating his affinity for the color black.
The bandana had a dual purpose – not only did it add to his distinctive style, but it also effectively kept sweat from his eyes as he delved into intense battles.
Krez's heart raced with anticipation, a surge of excitement coursing through him. The reason behind his elation? He was on the verge of surpassing the 200-point threshold for his agility attribute. Grinning from ear to ear, Krez couldn't contain his joy as he viewed his character pane with his peircing blueish green eyes, savoring the culmination of his dedicated efforts in the forest.

Krez, brimming with anticipation, extended his hand toward the character pane, pressing the plus next to agility. The cherished PiP sound resonated with the first press, encouraging him to press again and then once more. However, as Krez unleashed a flurry of presses, the expected PiP sound was conspicuously absent. Bewilderment took over, and he couldn't help but shout, 'What?!' Lowering his hand, he scrutinized the pane and discovered some writing next to his agility stat that had eluded his notice .

Krez read aloud, 'Body realm insufficient,' and let out a groan—ugggghhhh. Krez had thought that by leveling up and increasing his attributes, his body realm would naturally improve. However, now he understood the nuance: though the two were connected, leveling wouldn't enhance his body realm cultivation, and raising his body realm cultivation wouldn't elevate his level. The realization hung heavy in the air as Krez pondered the intricacies of his character's progression.
Drawing upon the wisdom he gleaned from a wuxia book, Krez mulled over the concept that elevating cultivation levels carried a multiplicative impact. Suddenly, an illuminating idea dawned on him: 'If I focus on leveling to increase my attributes, and then enhance my body realm, the synergy might lead to a multiplication of my attributes.' This realization sparked a surge of determination within Krez as he envisioned a strategic approach to bolstering his strength.
Krez envisioned a relentless journey of leveling up, systematically pushing all four of his body's attributes to an impressive 200. The ultimate goal? A breakthrough to Stage 2 Mercenary level. Krez held onto the hope that his strategy would prove effective. Drawing inspiration from countless cultivation books he read in his other life , krez knew that, irrespective of the power system, main characters often experienced an explosive surge in power when advancing to a new realm.
Krez extended his hand and pressed the + next to strength,PiP PiP elevating it to 102 just as night set in. With the air tinged with the warmth of a dwindling fire, Krez seized a piece of cooked meat and savored it while walking towards his tent. With the anticipation of the next day's adventure, Krez recalled an outing where he stumbled upon an area infested with skeletons, their movements animated by dark magics. Intriguingly, he noticed remnants of their former memories during combat, as they occasionally exhibited basic martial arts techniques.
Deciding that this location was perfect, Krez recognized the abundant experience the skeletons offered during his battles. It would became his prime spot for leveling up, as the skeletons consistently yielded the most experience points during his ventures. Krez layed in bed and fell asleep.
Morning arrived, Krez seamlessly went through his morning routine, anticipating the upcoming battles. He was already en route to the skeletons' area, eager to raise his level and engage in combat. The confirmation of his arrival came when he saw a skeleton, its eyes radiating a distinctive black light, krez fell into his battle stance.
Krez's battle style was a product of numerous encounters, drawing inspiration from fighting styles and fighting games from his previous life. Each move, a fusion of techniques and instinctive reactions.
The skeleton's eyes burned with am increased intensity, signaling its awareness of Krez's presence. Closing in rapidly, it reached him and unleashed a sharp punch towards Krez's head. Bony spikes adorned its knuckles, promising a painful impact. Krez swiftly dodged to the left with a spinning motion, countering with a forceful slam of the backside of his elbow into the skeleton's head.
The skeleton stumbled, a noticeable crack echoing from its skull. Swiftly regaining balance, it retaliated with a forceful kick. Krez responded by grabbing the bone leg with both hands, stopping the kick. Tightening his grip, he brought the leg down with all his might. Simultaneously, Krez quickly raised his knee, snapping the skeleton's leg upon impact.
With the skeleton's leg severed, it lost its balance and toppled over. Krez advanced, slamming his heel down on the skeleton's head with a powerful force. The bony skull shattered under the impact, decisively ending its animated existence.
Krez strode forward, eyes keenly scanning the surroundings for his next battle. The air was charged with anticipation as he ventured deeper into the skeleton's territory.
