《I Get A System, But I'm Still On Earth.》Chapter 2
Advertisement
Fuk quickly stumbled upon a new discovery. Originally, he had planned to take a bus, but after missing it, He had no choice but to walk into the job fair. And much to his surprise, he found that his Stamina was reduced by one after walking for around 1 kilometre, he also learned Walking Lvl 1 and Physical Fitness Lvl 1 in the process.
But, then again right at the job fair. Gritting his teeth, Fuk faced the truth. It was his second week of job hunting and he hadn't gotten a call nor seen a decent job. He stopped in the sea of people, dropping his shoulder, unsure what he should do next.
After thinking for a while, Fuk decided to take a seat, he looked for an empty chair from among all those people and learned Wide Eyed Lvl 1 when he spotted one. As he began creeping his way to the chair direction and putting his ass into the chair.
Congratulations! You have learned passive skill Rest Lvl 1.
Congratulations! You have learned passive skill Increase Aggro Meter Lvl 1.
Increase Aggro Meter? Fuk could understand why he learned Rest, but what was the deal with the other one? Unknowingly to him, as he resting his ass down, there were several others job seekers that also wanted to rest on that chair, though after Fuk was occupying the chair, they couldn't help themselves but to feel angry at him.
Well, first thing first while Fuk was resting, he checked the yellowish stamina bar and realized that the regeneration rate was increased by 150% if he wasn't moving or thinking.
Slowly the tiredness from his body began to disappear. After his stamina full, Fuk was back on his feet and spending the rest of his day doing a job hunt. In the process, he learned Mental Resistance Lvl 1.
Sometimes later, around the time Fuk was spending his time at the local bar, waiting for his friends while drinking a beer. It didn't take long for him to learn Alcohol resistance Lvl 1 and Poison Resistance Lvl 1.

With a deep long sigh, bored of waiting for his friends. Fuk decided to allocate the point he got from the system, as he was staring at the black letter, that seemingly invisible to others eyes. Fuk wondered how he should spend 8 CP he had, at first he used three points and raised Novice to 5/5.
Congratulations! You have gained the Novice class! +1 to all attributes, +1 renown, +1 Health/level, +1 Mana/level, +1 Stamina/level! You have learned Novice class active skills Strike Lvl 1, Hide Lvl 1, First Aid Lvl 1, and Equipment Maintenance Lvl 1!
Congratulations! The "Striker" class is available to you!
Congratulations! The "Backpacker" class is available to you!
Congratulations! The "High Novice" class is available to you!
Fuk could only frown when he saw this, there were too many things going on at once if he didn't get used with playing a video game, he was sure he would be overwhelmed by all of that new information.
Then again, Fuk did a once through on his menus, first, he exploring the Classes, albeit it didn't give much information, but from the requirement alone, Fuk could tell that each class was categorized by their respective attributes, and deducting that Novice was the easiest and the most balanced class. After working his brains out and realizing the bonuses Class would give after finishing them. Fuk decided to spend the rest of his CP into Fighter.
CP Left: 0.
High Novice: 0/15.
Fighter: 6/10
Striker: 0/10 (Requirement, 10 points in survival attribute.)
Spellcaster: 0/10
Backpacker: 0/10 (Requirement, 10 points in special attribute.)
Exploiter: 0/1 (Locked, 11/99)
Alongside this, Fuk gained 11 unspent AP. But even though Skill was really piqued his interest, it wasn't like he could use it right in the middle of the bar, knowing there was a rule he should follow.
In the end, Fuk was looked like a crazy person, pointing his finger and touching his 'imaginary' something. But first, Fuk determined to spread the allocation of his AP, learning what each and every attribute would do.

[Methany]
And there was no news from Junior.
At the end of the day, Fuk went back to his apartment. After he made sure that nobody except Walnut watching him, Fuk began to explore the skills menu.
(0/3)

Full of curiosity, Fuk then said "Strike!"
But nothing happened. Then, he realized there were three slots on top of the skill description. Amazed by the fact that he needed to put the skill into the slot bar before using it. "Strike." Said Fuk.
.... Feeling silly and yet nothing happened again.
Third time is the charm Fuk thought in his mind. But this time Fuk began concentrating and "Strike." then something was moved inside of Fuk's whole body, it was weird, but it felt warm, slowly he could feel the energy moved into his arm, and as Fuk's fist punched the pillow sofa.... his fist didn't pierce it, but enough to make a hole on the pillow.
This time as he touched the broken pillow, following the same steps and concentrating. Fuk could feel an energy flowing, but rather than his whole body, this one came from his chest and slowly it flowed to the pillow.
In an instant, the pillow hole was repaired and 3 seconds later it had a hole again.
But then again, tilting his head in confusion. Fuk didn't find a way to make this skill useful.
He ended his day, by making a fried rice and playing with Walnut, raising both of his Cook and Animal Handling to Lvl 2. And as he was sleeping, Fuk gained Sleep Lvl 1 and Rest Lvl 2.

Eater of Spirits
Story is abandoned. There will be no more updates on it. Jarod is kind of a loser, as it goes with these stories. A tear in his reality pulls him into another world, where he gains the ability to devour spirits, the locus of magic within the world. This is far from my first foray into fiction, but it is my first time posting anything to royal road, and first time writing LitRPG. This is an exercise in putting things out there, and just writing. That means that all of this is going to be a first draft, where edits may come sparsely if there is a glaring issue or something I think should be better. Thanks for reading!

8 193Getting Hard (Journey of a Tank)
Herald Stone always built tank characters in every MMORPG he played. To be immortal—that was his first Goal, a simple childhood dream. However, the turbulent realities of life put an end to his gaming days. Years passed, and Herald Stone, now having attained success and stability, was presented with the opportunity to redeem himself...to fulfill his first Goal. Trivial? Childish? Others might think so. But Herald Stone always fulfilled his Goals—every single one. No matter what. Immortality beckoned in Mother Core Online, and this time Herald Stone would answer. Choosing a long-forgotten race, hidden away in an unknown region, the journey of an immortal tank begins. This is the tale of Herald Stone...getting hard. Schedule: Mon-Wed-Fri ~1.8k-2.3k words per chapter. Also published on Scribblehub. My other ongoing story: REND | Royal Road Expect a focus on building a true tank in MMORPGs. Heavy game elements and numbers are present. But actual math will take a backseat to strategies involving skill builds and synergies that steadily become more complex while remaining understandable. The main character is atypical in LitRPGs or web novels as a whole. He might take some getting used to. Character arcs will develop over a long period. What you see now will be different as the main character changes. The start of Getting Hard is slow-paced (more so than others of the genre) and includes world-building and character development before focusing on the LitRPG.
