Fantasy Realm [One Piece] [Harry Potter] [Naruto] - [Progression] [LitRPG]

Chapter 5: Stats, Skills and the Beginning of the Journey

As Alex finally stops crying and starts thinking about his two new unique skills, the system abruptly pulls him back to reality.

[Host continues to amaze the system. His LUK, which was twice as high as the average, has now become five times as high. Host now looks like a completely average person. Host should take a look at himself.]

A mirror suddenly appears before him.

Alex stares in surprise. He's lost a significant amount of weight, looking like a version of himself that actually exercised. He even looks younger—maybe not stunning, but definitely... normal. Almost like he did many, many years ago.

Alex mutters, "System, can you explain my second skill? [Genius Conjurer] is pretty self-explanatory for now, but what about [Statistical OCD]? It doesn't seem like a bane to me at all! I can use 4 stat points and get 9 stats? How is that not overpowered?

"Also, [Hellish Greed] took 3 skill slots away, but all my basic skills now fall under this sub-skill? So, in the end, I've got 5 additional skills! Not to mention, my stats were reset, and even my luck is 5 now! How is this a bane? It sounds insane!"

[Host has indeed lost 2 INT points and cannot see the bigger picture. While host is not wrong, the Fantasy Realm evaluates this skill as more or less neutral. It is overall 1.65% skewed toward being a bane instead of a boon. This skill forever prevents you from specializing in any one stat, which will have severe repercussions when it comes to class selection and maximizing your main attributes. Haven't you heard of "a jack of all trades, master of none"? Also, host's level is too low for certain explanations... Skill slots are similarly restricted at host's current level. Furthermore, being forced to learn all 8 basic skills instead of focusing on one will be resource-intensive and difficult. However, these concerns are irrelevant at your current level. For now, you're correct, this skill is quite beneficial for your situation. Had the reset of your base stats been planned, this skill's rating would even be a D since you gained so many basic stats.]

[Since the host is now an avatar of mediocrity—except for your extraordinary LUK and respectable MNA, of course—your chances of survival have increased from under 2% to over 20%. Congratulations.]

Alex gulps. Being ten times more likely to survive sounds good... but 20% still doesn't seem like the brightest future.

"System, tell me more about these stats and the basic skills you mentioned!"

[Host cannot learn skills yet and is too low-level to understand advanced concepts. However, here is basic information regarding stats, skills in general, and the basic skills required by your unique skill.]
