Morning Routine

The sound of his Alarm echoed throughout his room and made its vibrations towards his pillow then the sound slowly entered his ear as the alarm was slowly increasing its music.

Unexpected music woke him up, his face was sulking as his eyes were half opened he never like the alarm, but it was very useful because without it he'd be sleeping in for far too long. It was also a reminder of his mother a moment that she had given to him.

Getting out of bed he grumbled and walked slowly towards the bathroom while removing his clothes entirely, he had a good build not entirely athletic nor thin either he just looked very healthy, although he had his gym in the basement he barely touched it.

Only At times when he just needed to relieve his stress out, thinking back then he and his family would at times workout together as a small tradition. He smiled as he looked back at the past, after the thought. He turned on the shower which wasn't cold nor hot just the right way to wake him up in the morning.

The process too took about thirteen minutes and with that, he left with a towel on his hip dried up and refreshed, he had long long dark hair and a beard. His eyes were brown.

He gazed upon the pictures of his family on the wall which showed happy smiles. Both of his parents were of Asian descent.

One thing that caught his eyes thou was his little brother's picture, old memories soon flowed in but he kept it suppressed as it shows painful memories of the past.

Reminiscing a few times he left his room towards the kitchen, where he prepared breakfast which consisted of omelettes, bacon with a small yet plentiful bowl of rice and as a side dish a bread with a coffee.

The kitchen was one of his favoured rooms.

It may look plentiful in the morning but Malachi has had this much for years, and after breakfast, he'd be working in his gym downstairs although not hours like the athletes in the earth but it was enough to make him sweat.

Unexpectedly enough the system gave him something powerful it was boosting his muscle gains and physical activity rewards, if he were to be working out as a human on earth it would at least take months to years to see a huge improvement but the system has bypassed all of that.

He'd be getting at least three times the amount of strength, soon he'll be seeing improvement on his body in days or weeks, which was quite a dream come true to almost everyone who wants to workout which includes himself to seem some improvements.

He had a plan, and it was to stay at home and slowly accumulate the stats he needs through exercising and eating, this wasn't as adventurous as those he read on the comics and books but to him, it was the safest bet to guarantee his well being.

Besides who would be crazy enough to explore an unknown world without knowledge or experience.

It may take months to attain the preferred stats but he didn't mind at all, as long as he was safe. He went down to the basement and through the first room, where everything was organized neatly, each device was on the corner as those didn't need that much space. The breath of fresh citrus filled the entire gym, it opened up his nose, to be able to exhale thoroughly.

He first took the time to stretch his entire body, not wanting to cause any injury or discomfort later on.

"It's been a while since I've done this. "

Lifting his chest he started to stretch for about fifteen minutes combining every stretch he could think of and train, after a few minutes had passed, he had begun his physical routine when he was still young and energetic.

He first started with squats a goal of one hundred, then leg press, the burning sensation towards his legs was starting to build up, but he didn't care for such trials and proceeded to switch towards his foot. The longer he worked more on his leg, the sensation was gradually building up and the pain was coming.

All he could do was grit his mouth and accept it, after all, no pain no gain was what he was thinking. Time passed and it came the pain was starting to numb and this was the sensation he was hoping to come.

He immediately grabbed a thirty-pound dumbbell and proceeded to raise his heels with both dumbbells in his hand. Each time he finished his body told him to stop and give up, but he couldn't as he saw his stats slowly rising, it didn't matter, the pain was only temporary and the gains were permanent.

He would do this without rest.

Barbell Calf Raise, Weighted Jump Squats, Barbell Hip thrust, deadlift, push upside, bench press, curls, pull upside as last. What he didn't know as well as that the system was also helping him endure the pain.

But in the end, his body couldn't handle the stress and collapsed due to exhaustion. He layed there while his stats slowly rose above.

Strength: 130 + 10

Stamina: 130 + 10

Agility: 135 + 15

Intelligence: 160

Attack: 95 - 100
