Sasuke was sweating buckets and panting harshly in his room in the middle of the night. It had been worth it though.

By working through exhaustion, END has increased by 1.

He had been repeating the beginner Uchiha Interceptor katas in his room for about 5 hours. The Level ups had stopped sometime after the 3 hour mark after that he had only gained one point in END. Kai wasn't kidding when he said that gains would become more difficult later on.

Sasuke wondered if his Taijutsu skill was capped at Level 5 because he didn't know any others kata except the beginner ones.

His stats, however, had started looking very imbalanced.

Level-2 Exp-200/400

STR-1

END-8

AGI-5

INT-1

WIS-2

LUC-1

POINTS-10

MONEY- 1220 ryo

Sasuke had noticed that his HP had increased quite a bit and concluded that it coincided with his gains in AGI and END. With every stat point gain in these two categories his HP had gained 50 points. Perhaps CP would be associated with WIS or INT stats the same way. He could perhaps increase them by reading books and thinking about problems.

STR could be increased by maybe lifting weights.

LUC however was a different matter. How does one increase their luck? Would he have to spend his stat points on LUC to increase it?

Suddenly getting an idea, Sasuke went over to his cabinet and fished out a single ryo coin from the pocket of one his trousers. He had forgotten to return the change to his mother after running an errand for her. Not that he didn't have 1220 ryo in his Inventory, but those paper notes would not be useful for what he had in mind.

Flipping the coin in air, Sasuke called out his prediction, "Tails!"

The coin landed on head's but Sasuke got a new notification.

By thinking an out of the box idea WIS has increased by 1.

That meant he was on the right track. Sasuke braced himself to spend the rest of the night flipping the coin over and over again. It wasn't like he had anything else he could work on. Hopefully, Gamer's Mind would suppress the boredom atleast a little bit.

By correctly guessing the outcome of the coin toss LUC has increased by 1.

By correctly guessing the outcome of the coin toss 2 times in a row LUC has increased by 1.

By correctly guessing the outcome of the coin toss 3 times in a row LUC has increased by 1.

By correctly guessing the outcome of the coin toss 4 times in a row LUC has increased by 1.

By correctly guessing the outcome of the coin toss 5 times in a row LUC has increased by 1.

Squinting against the rays of light of the rising sun, Sasuke sighed in disappointment as his streak of correct guesses was broken again. He would need to figure out another method to increase his LUC stat. It was getting beyond tedious. He had to perform thousands of coin tosses to get 5 points in LUC.

Getting up from the floor he again marvelled at the usefulness of Gamer's body. It had been more than 48 hours since he last slept and he was still in peak condition.

He entered the kitchen and saw his mother still working on breakfast. He used Observe on her having forgotten to do it the day before.

"Up early, Sasuke?" She asked, somehow sensing his presence without turning to look at him.

"Yes, kaa-san." He replied, watching her cook.

Maybe he could also generate a cooking skill that would help him make chakra replenishing food.

"Would you like some help?" He ventured.

His mother looked at him with surprise for a moment before beckoning him to come to the kitchen counter with a smile. Her instructions to to handle kitchen instruments were quite gentler than taijutsu lessons from yesterday. In what seemed like no time, together they had prepared Gohan, a dish of steamed rice with egg toppings, for breakfast.

Ding!

By learning the delicate art of making food from your mother you have gained a new skill.

Skill: Cooking (Level 1)
This skill allows you to bring out the chakra replenishing qualities of the food you personally cook.

Sasuke quickly used observe on his bowl.

Steamed Rice with Egg Topping
Uncommon Object
CP Gain: 500

He quickly put the bowl in his Inventory while his mother was setting the table. He need all the help with CP he could get. He had to level up Chakra Flare to level 10 today or he'd fail the quest.

After breakfast Sasuke quickly made his way over to his regular training field. There he quickly fired off 15 chakra flares bringing his CP down to 114/684.

Skill Chakra Flare Level has increased by 1.

He noticed that it was much easier to use Chakra Flare for him than it was two days ago.

Quickly eating his breakfast, brought his CP back up to 520/690, the constant use further increasing his chakra capacity.

However, this only gave him enough chakra to use Chakra Flare 13-14 times and no means to replenish it after that. He knew it would take him more than that to level up the skill again.

Sasuke had noted that it took him almost around an hour for his CP to completely recover yesterday without any food. Though, his CP had almost doubled after the LUC stat increased to 6.

He needed a skill to replenish his chakra much faster or he would have a hard time training ninjutsu when he had the chance to learn any.

Kai had said the in most of the RPGs the player would be able to recover MP much faster when they mediated. Maybe he should try that?

Sasuke sighed and started walking towards a shady enclave nearby. He sat down cross legged and closed his eyes. Not knowing what else to do, he just kept sitting there not caring how long it took for the skill to appear. His muscles started protesting after some time but Sasuke distracted himself with how many Great Fireballs he could throw after he mastered his still imaginary skill. He didn't know how much time had passed when he opened his eyes hearing a much anticipated chime.

By sheer stubbornness and nothing else, you have created a new skill.

Skill: Meditation (Level 1)
This skill allows you to increase the rate of regeneration of CP and HP.
At level 1: 10•/• CP and MP per minute

"Yes!" Sasuke jumped up in celebration, before noticing the sun's position in the sky. "Oh no. I'm late for lunch."

Sasuke rushed back towards his house but not before firing off another 13 Chakra Flares and leveling up the skill again.

Skill Chakra Flare level has increased by 1.

Thankfully, his mother's ire was somewhat quelled because of him helping her to make breakfast that morning and he managed to get off lightly.

After lunch though, the taijutsu lesson was somehow even more intense than the last one. Mikoto was very impressed by Sasuke's ease with the kata taught yesterday and had upped the ante. She taught him double the amount if kata and didn't let up until he performed them perfectly.

Skill Taijutsu Level has increased by 1.

Skill Taijutsu Level has increased by 1.

Because of all his level gains the night prior, Sasuke was able to satisfy his mother's strict expections with an hour to spare before dinner, which was enough time for him to finally grind the chakra flare skill.

Returning to his often visited haunt of last two days, Sasuke proceeded to use Chakra Flare skill repeatedly untill his chakra had depleted to less than 50 CP then using the medication skill for 10 minutes to recover the CP.

At the end of the hour he had finally accomplished his goal.

Skill Chakra Flare Level has increased by 1.
