Prologue : Hope?

'Is it possible?'

It's a very hard-thought-out idea. it's a strange thought for a 19-year-old who is not very used to it. But what is more strange is that this 19-year-old has the mental calmness to think about these things.

After all, a person who has been subjected to constant torture for about 1 year in a cahennemvari cell, chained to a metal cross, should not be so calm. Of course, 1 year according to the normal time flow.

Ironically, this is a development that brings new questions rather than answers. How can he have such a terrible mental state despite such a high level of Skill?

It's really weird. But is there anything about this young man that's not weird?

'Can't be real'

[The "Absolute Mental Protection" skill is trying to correct Gamer's mental state. ]

' what if it's real...?'

[ Error! An unidentified anomaly suppresses the ability to "Absolute Mental Protection". ]

This mental conflict has been going on for a long time. It has been going on exactly since he had the power of the young Gamer. It's been about 3 days. But today is different.

'Situation...'

It's a semi-conscious decision. But still it's a choice. A blue window appeared in front of the teenager.

[Congratulations on completing this stage of Gamer training as well! ]

[ Now the final stage. Please distribute your 5 free stat points as you wish. ]

There is really a lot of information. Really amazing information. But I guess it wasn't very surprising for our teenager. Because he didn't even react. thing... To be honest, even being able to think through the thoughts just now was a supreme achievement. After all, [Negative wisdom] is something that should not be underestimated.

[ Warning! If you don't spend your stat points within five hours, they will automatically be spent on your lowest stat so that training can continue. ]

A counter appeared on the screen.

...

Yes, there is still no reaction.

And of course, five hours later, he was still unresponsive. Can you blame him? It's a very difficult thing to think about. Especially in a cell like this, in such a state.

And the counter came to zero.

"Aagrh!"

As if someone had suddenly pulled a switch, the chained teenager's mind opened up and became clear. It's like a barrier has been broken down. It's as if a fog that has existed for a long time has partially lifted.

[ Error! An unidentified anomaly partially suppresses the ability to "Absolute Mental Protection". ]

"This..."

the chained child... No, Natsuki Subaru's lips curled up slightly.

at that moment, logic was permanently shelved.
