Chapter 4- The upgrade

After reaching home I was thinking about it when I checked my points I have total of 70 points now.

I cant buy any skills for now I have to wait till tomorrow

I was still thinking of future but I was so tired that I fell asleep

Next day I woke up at 7 am

There are still 4 days left for the college to reopen and I still need to deal with those bullies I need to learn a combat skill or a self defense skill.

I went to work out on my usual spot and again need to take the help of the system because of my weak arse.

And today too the man was present and just staring at me

Now it has really started to freak me out but i Ignored it again

I completed my work out and saw that the man was also working out he was going on full beast mode and was doing handstand pushup

I think he is some trainer and might be just watching my form.

I then went to a local food place to have some breakfast. The stall was owned by very kind lady and she sell typical breakfast.

I took the breakfast went home took a shower same thing happened but today only a little black came out of my body

When I came out of shower I noticed that my skin was glowing than before. I thinks I lose some more weight to and gained muscle

I think the black was the impurities which has been sitting inside me for years, oh gosh it was nasty

Did I grew some height, I think I grew some about 1 inch I know its not a lot but its unbelievable for such a short time.

I was looking more shredded and more handsome

I was looking like one of the most handsome man in my area if not in my country....

Lol, just kidding sike!

I looked a little better but yeah I definitely become a little handsome

And that's when I realized my charisma and looks had went up by 2%

Now they both are 4% unlocked.

This is again not a great increases but a significant increase.

Even my strength has gone up by 5%

I think I will be take bullies on one on one but they always come in pack

They never come alone so I need to learn some techniques to fight them

After these I ate my breakfast it was pork dumpling and beef noodle soup with some hot oil! Really good! But I can only spurge for once in a while.

I wish I was able to make such delicious food and then I realized that now I have collected 80 points

| system buy me the cooking skill |

You might be thinking why I bought the cooking skill while I could easily bought some useful skill

I bought this skill because it will help me save lots of money on food, now I don't need to depend upon the cup noodles

"A happy stomach makes a man happy"

Again a lot of basic of cooking, taste, ingredient matching, basics of cutting preparations and cooking were now embedded in my mind.

With all these I decided to leave for the restaurant, I went to the restaurant and worked really hard.

After sometime I saw some people entering the restaurant

I just cursed really hard inside my head! It was my bullies they came in saw me working. They called out to me and then they ordered a lot of food.

They ate like pigs and then when I handed them the bill the bully named Jason said

[ where is my discount , you shithead, we are acquainted right give me some discount ]

He started to ask for discount like he was entitled to it he was starting to complaint about me about how bad was my service

He was basically a boy Karen

I had enough and asked him to pay properly because I didn't want to lose my job

That day was packed and every table I served knew how good I was and even the staff knew that Eric was just making a scene

We refused to give him a discount and had to pay fully otherwise we would call the police

He paid the full amount, and when leaving he whispered in my hear

[ be prepared to come to uni ]

And left with his friends

I wasn't sacred but I need to find a solution for it as soon as possible.

I apologized to the rest of the tables and started to work again

Staff again appreciated me for handling the situation properly.

After that

I was done with work, had food and left for home.

When I reached home I was exhausted so I fall asleep instantly

When I woke up I had 60 points.

I went for the work out again saw the him, today he didn't glared at me, he was just working out.

I today too had to use the help of the system. I think it will almost take about a week to workout on my own.

I went to then buy some groceries for making food bought some vegetables, some pork, some chicken, eggs, rice, condiments it all cost me about 95 dollars.

I still had 200 left

Went home made some eggs, some rice and soy sauce.

Took bath and again it felt like almost all the impurities was washed and my body was glowing like mirror

I started to notice I was starting to get abs too

I think I might make a break through in uni.

Anyways I got ready for work

When I went to work I saw everyone was worried

| what happened ?|

I asked that time boss zoey told me that one of the chef has fallen ill and will not be able to come today

Also today was Friday so due to that there will a big rush today.

While all this was going on I stepped up and asked

| if you don't mind I can replace him for today |

They all were astonished like they have seen a dragon

[ I don't think you will be able to do it jay ]

Boss zoey said

But I insisted here because I had my trust on my skills

Eventually she gave in but told me to be very careful and not to make mistake

Soon it was starting to get rush, my work was simply to prepare everything like cutting and all

And rest of them were in charge of cooking the dish

We had such a harmony even boss Zoey was surprised.

My hand were cutting vegetable like they were going through a cutting machine very precise and fast

Soon the rush started to die

Both chefs were non stop praising me

When the work was done I was called by boss Zoey

Every staff started to praise me

[ I didn't expected you to work so magnificently Jay]

| thank you boss Zoey |

[ Jay , I think you have the talent to become a successful chef, would you like to work as a commi chef]

[ I will also increase your pay to 800 dollars ]

[ we really need kitchen staff and I think you performed really well ]

| thank you boss Zoey and I gladly take you up on that offer |

Who wouldn't say yes to that

I know this isn't a big progress but progress is still progress

If you wanted a overpowered mc from the start then you are in the wrong story.

Just kidding don't go.

I then left the restaurant with some more cash in my hand

I think it was now really the time to buy a new skill

I went home I was really exhausted so I went to sleep

Next day I had about

80 points in total

I turned on the system and said

| system buy me the communication skill |

I knew it would have some kind of use because otherwise it wouldn't have been there on the menu

When I bought it suddenly my mind was filled with how to interact with people, how to influence people etc

Then I got a notification

/ charisma went up by 10%

/ charisma- 14% unlocked

Holly crap it went up by 14%

I knew it, it had some kind of use.

After this I just went to sleep, it was just one of the day where

wonder about life, you know sometimes we just think about life, we think about future, we think about the possibilities

And that's what it excites me the most like you don't know what will happen tomorrow

Always remember where we come from, never lose hope, always remember the past cannot be changed so don't stress about it

"No matter how dark the night gets, morning is gonna be here at some point"
