[Day 3]

I woke up and immediately could feel that my stamina had been restored, just before going to sleep my stamina was 18/100. But now that I have slept around 8 hours I have restored a whopping 78 points! Now I have 96 stamina points in total.

​​

"I need to make sure I manage my stamina wisely if I get into a sticky situation like yesterday? I need to have stamina available so I can escape."

I was thinking that I had gotten a bit stronger but my status is still low and disappointing.

"Hmm! It's a little less trash, but not by much so it's still trash… Sigh. Also what is this Blessing of ######### bullshit? What does it even do? Is it like one of those weird skills that the main characters get in those novels that the system can't show yet because they're too weak to use it? Or is it some kind of blessing from some mysterious being that doesn't belong in this world? Sigh…"

I was a little flustered over the lack of information I have about this new world I was suddenly transmigrated to.

"So many questions but I'm too weak to find any of them out yet… Alright! Time to go hunting! If I want answers I need to get strong first. That's how it is here, I understand!"

After talking to myself as if I were some kind of brave protagonist, I started my journey outside. I decided to go around to the West River because it seemed like the most peaceful place without many birds around. When I got near the river I saw crystalline water flow wildly, there I saw a reflection.

Finally, I could see what my face looked like. It was an almost black face with two strong haws and 4 eyes on top of my head, I had little whiskers on my cheeks and if it wasn't for the ugly scar near my two left eyes I'd almost look cute!

"I'm such an adorable little caterpillar! How could I have minus one charisma? This is complete bullshit!"

In the middle of my mental rambling, I felt a horrible presence watching me from below. When I looked down I saw a big fish that was looking at me with its ugly bubbly eyes! I quickly spend some of my stamina to get some distance between me and the river.

"Sigh that was close… I'm glad I saved my stamina but I wish I could have eaten that fish! It looked so meaty… so juicy… so tasty… Ugh, I miss fried fish, smoked fish, even raw fish! I miss you so much-"

Just before I could finish my thoughts the huge fish jumped out of the water and started walking towards me with its four little limbs.

"What?! Guaah! A fish that can walk! I should have expected this from a fantasy world! (Well there are walking fish on Earth too but that's beside the point.) I'm so careless! So careless! This is the second time something like this has happened to me! Is it because of my minus two luck? Stupid System! Stupid Mysterious Voice!"

With all the force I could muster I started to use my stamina to run as fast as I was able to away from the walking fish. I realized that its limbs were very little and not well adapted to walking for extended periods, after a while, it started to slow down. Then suddenly the fish realized it had walked too far away from the river and began to suffocate right in front of me.
