Only I Know That This World Will Eventually Perish

Skill impact

　”Hmm………… Okay, I’ve decided.”

　Aloud, Akira touched the letter 『Y』 in the description of physical strengthening.

　The reason was that the value to be enhanced by this, even if it was small now, could be improved if the skill was raised.

　――――――――――――――――――

　Skill: Physical strengthening Lv１ has been acquired.

　――――――――――――――――――

“Looks like I got it without issue.”

　Akira mumbled as the screen switched.

　Then, just to be sure, Akira opened his own status screen.

　――――――――――――――――――

“What? “

　Unexpectedly, a remark from Akira’s mouth escaped at the contents of the stat values that appeared on the display.

“Eh, wait, what!?　It increases so much at level 1!? “

　The physical ability-related status value was increased by 10 at level. 1. Altogether, the overall stat value increased by 30.

　Considering the three points consumed, the performance was exceptional.

(Great…… Amazing!!　This way, I might not have to bother looking for goblins who are acting alone!!)

　In other words, that would mean that it would be easier to level than ever before.

　What’s more, it meant being able to react quickly to the new monsters that kept appearing.

(Ohh, yeah, the level!　The skill level!!　How do I raise it!?)

　With his excitement still unquenched, Akira touched various parts of the screen at random, looking for places related to skill level on the screen as it was displayed.

(What about the earned points……Seems like a no. Then what about my level…… it doesn’t react either. Oh, I know. What about the skill details screen that comes up?)

　With that in mind, Akira touched on the words “physical strengthening” in the skills section.

　――――――――――――――――――

　Physical strengthening Lv１

　・Passive Skill

　・Increases Strength, Speed, and Endurance. The value of the enhancement depends on the level.

　Do you want to spend 20 earned points to increase your skill level?　　Ｙ/Ｎ

　――――――――――――――――――

“Ohh, there it is! “

　Akira was pleased to finally find it.

　However, that joy soon faded.

(…………20 points?　The hell…… No matter how you look at it, it’s too expensive.)

　There was only one point to be gained from each level up.

　That meant that the skill level of physical strengthening could not be raised until he reached level 24, by simple calculations.

(I thought if I could easily raise my skill level, I could wipe out all the monsters in this area―――― Well, I guess it can’t be that easy.)

　Muttering in his mind, Akira lightly waved his hand to turn off the screen.

　Then he bent over as if to check his physical condition and then he repositioned his backpack.

(My body feels light. It’s as if it’s not my own body.)

　The weight on his back that he used to feel was now nothing more than a slight inconvenience.

　Now, he might have no problem dealing with more than one goblin.

　The thought brought a grin to Akira’s mouth.

“Alright then.”

　Speaking as if to brace himself, Akira drew the knife from the goblin’s corpse.

　He then saw that the tip of the blade was broken and raised his eyebrows involuntarily.

“Just one time and this happened…… At this rate, it might be useless by the next battle.”

　Suddenly, Akira had an idea.

(Yes, that club. Where’s the club this guy was carrying?)

　Looking around, he found it lying on the ground a few meters away from him.

　Akira picked it up and stood up with the knife in one hand, shoving just the end of the club into his backpack, adjusting its position so that the handle was outside for immediate access.

“――Well then, once again. Let’s go, goblin hunting! “

　Now that he had the skills, his next objective was to clear the quest.

　But first, he wanted to see how much his body had changed through physical strengthening.
