Two years later . 

[Congratulations, User had slept well, HP , SP and Chi have recovered, all negative status have been negated] 

Opening his eyes he looked around himself checking his surroundings first before stretching his body. He was in a small room with nothing but a bed, a small closet used to store clothes and a table with a chair on the side. It was more than he needed so he wasn't complaining. 

It was close to sunrise but it was still dark all around him. It didn't bother him much though, with night vision it was the same as day for him, although he could still tell the difference between the two.

He actually didn't need to sleep until sunrise as he had discovered that just falling asleep for three hours was enough for him to fully rest and recover back to full Health so everything after those three was extra for him, problem is he loved sleep way too much to not enjoy it to its fullest whenever he could.

The reason he had woken up so early today was that it was his fifth birthday and he decided to finally start his training, that's right he decided that it was about time to stop slacking and start working his ass off.  

With the gamer system aiding him it would be a waste to not do the best he can on training and the earlier he started the better, the only reason he hadn't started earlier was that his parents wouldn't let him.

Stepping softly on the ground to not wake his sleeping family up he did not make a single sound as he made his way to the exit, all thanks to a skill he unlocked at the age of four, one year ago.

[Stealth (Passive /Active) - Level 4: Allows the user to move undetected, decreasing both sound and presence, at higher levels the user can erase his presence entirely.] 

It was far from reaching the highest level but it was more than enough for him to avoid being detected by his family. 

He silently exited the tent and stood outside, yes the tent, there were no houses in the southern water tribe, they either lived in an igloo or a tent, and considering that he was the son of the tribe's chief their tent was comparatively luxurious. 

Still it was nothing compared to his previous life‘s apartment, he still missed modern day conveniences from time to time but it wasn't much.

'Phew, mission accomplished, now for the next part.' he thought to himself.

Standing outside the tent he felt the cold morning breeze blowing on his body, creasing his skin. At first when he had just started sneaking around in the morning and sometimes at night it was still difficult for him to stand it, it was almost unbearable, but now even though he didn't unlock a skill or anything like that it was a little easier.

And considering the fact that he could negate all negative effects with a good night of sleep he wasn't worried too much about getting a cold or falling sick. 

And if he endured long enough he was certain that he would get an ability to resist such cold sooner or later. And it seemed this was his lucky day. 

[Endurance +1]

[Ding*]

[Through the repetition of a specific action a new ability is unlocked] 

[Cold resistance (Passive) level 1:Grants the user the ability to resist cold temperatures and reduce the damage of cold related abilities, at higher levels the user won't be affected by any degree of cold at all.] 

Immediately he could feel that it wasn't as cold as before outside and he was more comfortable.

'Sigh, this game system really is a cheat and unfair to everyone else.’ he thought, but he will gladly accept this cheat, he would be an idiot to do otherwise.
