《Breakout: The Evolution of a High School Nerd》Ch. 5- Do You Even Bonus Point?
Advertisement
Author's Note: This is a very different Chapter compared to the rest, but it has it's purpose. This Chapter gives you a little more enlightenment on things like...
1. How the MC will allocate his Stats
2. How Stats come into effect
EDIT: WE'RE SO CLOSE TO 300 FOLLOWERS! THANKS A BUNCH GUYS!
After 30 minutes into the final hour of torture, I had read through all of the Windows that appeared before me. Every time I finished reading a Window, it magically disappeared; and then whatever the Window had shown would come into effect.
(Author’s Note: This basically means whatever he gains won’t be put into effect until he verifies it. Last Chapter, I only showed the MC gaining the Endurance Stat and +4 Endurance (He gains an extra stat because he gained the skill) but in fact, his gains were more than this. I just didn’t want to make a chapter with 50 million Windows, which would have been pretty annoying.)
Each time I read a Window telling me about an Endurance gain, the pain lessened; which was a blessing to me. Now that I think about it, this would have helped a whole shitload if I opened these Windows while being tortured by the wolf; but then again, I wasn’t even able to think straight at the time.
Now, if we just have a quick look at my gains…
Endurance +1
I received this Window 128 times; after looking more into the Endurance Stat, I discovered that each point in the Stat reduces physical damage by .02. This will definitely help in the future…
Skill: Pain Tolerance
Has been Acquired
Reading this box made me somewhat happy; it showed me I won’t have to go through this hell for every skill Iearn. The skill made me feel less pain, and correlated with the Endurance Stat. Each point in Endurance is multiplied by .02 again, just like with my new Stat

Acid Resistance Acquired
Truthfully, I’m not really sure if this will be useful in the future or not… I mean, hopefully I won’t end up swallowed by a beast again in the future, but I guess you never know?
You Have Leveled Up
And to wrap things up, I also received the classic Level Up Window. I received this a total of 7 times, which increases all stats by 1, and also gives me 5 Bonus Points. Now, I can finally show my new Status Window…

ALSO PRETEND ACID IS HERE AND AT 7%
At this point, I had to think long and hard (That’s What She Said!) about what I should do with my Bonus Points. While I couldn’t add them to Endurance which I would have loved to do, I can put them in any other Stat (besides Luck). While I was considering dumping all of my points in Charm, I knew it wouldn’t help me survive; plus I could always do that in the future.
Thus, I allocated my Bonus Points like this…

ALSO PRETEND ACID IS HERE AND AT 7%
I assumed Strength and Agility would be the most important to me, so I put most of my points in there. I also put a great amount of points into Vitality to increase my Health (Gotta love video game mechanics). I put less points in Intelligence and Wisdom, but I assumed I will need it for Abilities in the future; especially for the Demonic Regeneration.
After I finished allocating my Bonus Points, 2 Windows popped up before my eyes. The first Window…
Skill: Demonic Regeneration
Has been Acquired
As soon as I read this Window, all of the pain simply faded away.
‘Finally, that was absolute hell’
After I took a second to relax and move my body a little, I proceeded to the next screen…
WARNING: MULTIPLE STATS HAVE BEEN INVESTED INTO YOUR BODY. TO COMPENSATE FOR THIS, YOU WILL UNDERGO GENETIC BODY MODIFICATIONS UNTIL YOUR BODY CAN COPE WITH THESE STAT CHANGES.
Time: 3 Hours
‘FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK!’
And once again, I entered a world of pain...

A Castle in a Teacup
One might say that to anger forces beyond the ken of fragile breakable mortals is a bad idea, others might say that meddling in dark forces with little chance of gain is also a bad idea, they would both be right by on all counts but they forget to mention also how incredibly stupid combining both of those things are. Stupid people don’t last so long on the mystic side of things, normal folks who wander over to the other side have a tendency to do one of two things, either A. figure out that the best thing to do is keep their head down and not draw attention from any entity that refers to humanity as “you mortals” , or B. something horrifying happens to them. As you may have guessed I fell into the second category, mostly because I thought there was a third option. See I though there must be an option C, an option where I got to end up not as some shitty back ally wizard cowering at the chance of discovery, praying that one of my wards or spells wouldn’t be noticed by something that goes bump in the night. No I would be the one who rose above all that. I would never have to be afraid. Well I made a good attempt at it that’s for damn sure, but unfortunately for me it turns out there is not an option C. At least not for me…

Travels along the Astral Road
The words in these scrolls depict the path of Bai Qi, the greatest scholar of his time after he was forced to leave his life, achievements, and even body behind to save himself. Assuming the persona of Wu Guang, he will have to start his cultivation from zero on the weakest area of the lowest plane possible. How, when, and at what cost he will reach his previous strength? Will he surpass it? Or fall along the way? A mix of XianXia and XuanHuan with slight touches of western fantasy.The first book will center more on explaining qi, cultivation, and other elements of the genres - so if you are searching for some constant battle action, the start may be a bit slow.The second one will go on a probably OP trope, with the MC being simply too good for his environment.Plans are to write at least seven-eight "books" (About 120 chapters per book). Currently, the chapters being uploaded are part of the 5th book.The current schedule is at least one chapter every "Wednesday" (could be a day earlier or later, sorry, my times are strange atm), plus up to two chapters each week if I am able to. [Participant in the Royal Road Writathon Challenge], always. Completed Challenge, x2Waiting for the next one!
