Rain asked many questions about the system and gain a better understanding of various topics.
While he found the answers helpful, he couldn't shake off the feeling that something was amiss.
His suspicions were growing stronger with each passing day.
He knew the system was hiding the answer behind the excuse of insufficient authority. But he couldn't force the system.
"I'm sure I will find the answers soon," he said, his voice low and dripping with a menacing undertone. "Or I can just accelerate the plot like I did till now." His words were laced with a dangerous edge, suggesting that he was not above bending the rules to achieve her goals.
Rain's face twisted into a sly smile, revealing a hint of malice lurking behind his eyes.
"Oh, now is not the time to think about this." Rain spoke as his usual laid-back attitude returned.
He took a deep breath and looked at the status window in amazement.
He was thrilled to see that his strength, health, stamina, and mana had all increased from C to B, indicating that he had become more powerful.
Rain was particularly happy to see that his charm attribute was rated A.
"I guess I am not far to reach S grade charm." He thought inwardly.
Currently, Rain felt as if a heavy weight had been lifted from his body.
He felt a newfound lightness and agility as if he had shed his mortal shackles.
Looking down at his body, he noticed that his muscles had become more defined and toned as if any impurities or toxins had been purged from his body.
This was the true power of the B-rank, he realized.
With it came a sense of purity and refinement, a shedding of the mortal impurities that had held him back before.
He was also pleased with his B+ intelligence rating, knowing that he was a quick learner and could strategize well in tough situations.
"It looks like it will take some time to raise the intelligence and charm stat." He assumed.
However, Rain was a bit disappointed with his C luck rating, feeling like he could use a bit more good fortune in his life.

Overall, Rain was excited to see where his newfound abilities would take him and was ready to embark on new adventures with his improved stats.
However, he still hadn't seen his skills.

Rain carefully examined his skills list, noticing several new entries that had been added since the last time he checked. He felt a surge of excitement as he realized that he had gained some new abilities and had improved in others.
First, he saw that he had gained three new skills: Jumping, Disguise, and Trapping. He was pleased to see that he was expanding his skillset beyond combat and into more practical areas. He looked forward to trying out his new abilities and seeing how he could use them to his advantage.
Next, he noticed that he had gained several new sword arts and gunplay techniques. The Shadow Sword Art and Shadow Walk had disappeared from his skills window, but he quickly realized that the new Shadow Sword Style had replaced them both. He was eager to try out this new style and see how it compared to his previous techniques. Additionally, the Thunder Star and Moon Sword Style, Elemental Gunplay, Lurking Ambush, and Illusionary Shot were completely new to him, and he was excited to learn them.
Despite gaining new skills, Rain also noted that some things had disappeared from his skills list. He felt a twinge of regret as he saw that the Shadow Sword Art and Shadow Walk were gone, but he understood that they had been replaced by the more advanced Shadow Sword Style. He knew that this was a natural progression of his skills and was excited to see what new abilities he would gain in the future.
Just like how Parallel Thinking became Enhanced thinking.
Finally, his Mana Control and Alchemy rose.
"Now I can create those elixirs and use man breathing technique more accurately.
Overall, Rain felt confident that he was making progress in his training and was excited to see where his skills would take him next.
He made a mental note to practice his new skills and to continue working hard to improve his existing abilities.
As he practiced his new skills in virtual reality before leaving, he was already at the Beginner level.
Unfortunately, he couldn't practice the Elemental Fusion skill. Because of that, he still hadn't learned it.
"Still, it's not worth worrying as I remember the content." Rain sighed.
His marksmanship will also improve soon, with Elemental Gunplay and Illusionary Shot.
Rain knew that his ability to shoot accurately and create illusions in combat could prove useful in many situations.
Still, he couldn't help but feel a tinge of disappointment at his lack of progress in some skills.
He made a mental note to focus on improving those skills, especially lockpicking and disguise.
"I have some of the basic skills for assassin and thief. Maybe I should buy some skills like Stealth." Rain thought.
"Should I become a part-time thief? It would be fun to rob some treasures." Rain joked as he thought.
However, maybe it wasn't only a joke.
