"Is there any good places to teleport? This place is littered with demons... it's going to be a bit hard to escape this orphanage"

Hiroto said as he tried to find an empty area around the streets to avoid alerting the others and cause him to be chased around town and captured by the demons of this place. He currently can't handle any of them as they are tier IIs, and he doesn't know the extent of their skills and power so he needed to be careful when escaping.

"Any bright ideas, system?"

Hiroto asked as he sat down on the bed. Trying to remember the entire architecture of the orphanage so he would know where to escape if he was given the chance.

[I suggest that you spend the remaining system points that you have to buy 4 skills, host]

The system suggested, causing Hiroto to look up at the system with serious expression on his face.

"What skills? You mean the Unarmed combat mastery like what Akio had?"

[Yes... but we think that you should first know the distinction between magic skills and physical combat skills. As to not cause confusion if you ever buy that skill, host]

The system said before showing Hiroto two translucent panels in front of him.

[Unlike magic skills where you learn everything that moment that you obtain it. Physical combat skills works a little bit different than that since it is a 'progressive' type of skill]

"Progressive?"

[Indeed, in simple words, it is a skill that rarely provide you with any kind of information but only provides you with extreme talents in those fields. Magic is predefined, meaning there is very little need for you to learn any kind of techniques. You just need to use and that's it. Combat skills work differently as it is much flexible than magic]

[There's is no such thing as a universal technique or style in physical combat, unlike in magic where the spells are universal and couldn't easily be rewritten. That's why for physical combat skills, it gives you the ability to create your own style in fighting with a little bit of guidance from the minimal information that it gives you. That's why many consider physical combat skills as burdensome, and it is not really powerful when used alone. Only when you combine it with other skills will it become useful]

The system explained, causing Hiroto to look at the system with a tired expression on his face.

"Why didn't you tell me about this before?"

[Because your puny brain and intellect might overload trying to process all of this information. That's why we're explaining everything one step at a time. You're not that smart so we have to take it slow with the explanation on the mechanics of skills]

"... I almost forgot how much of a dick you are"

Hiroto said as his vein bulge out of his forehead as he resisted the urge to just curse the system. But stopped himself since he still owed the system for saving him a while ago.

"So... what are the skills that you want me to buy?"

Hiroto asked, causing the system to show a list of skills in front of him. Indicating all of the skills that the system recommends for him to buy.

[Unarmed Combat Mastery(High) - 5 System Points

Sword Mastery (High) - 5 system points

Projectile Throwing (High) - 5 System points

Stealth - 5 System Points]

"... System... you're planning on leaving me with only 10 system points?"
