Chapter 2: The Loner System
*
Lonely System has been successfully attached to you.
*
I had no idea how other people would react if they knew that the system has just attached to them. Like panicing or exciting, Those who do not know about these things might react like 'oh my god what is going on here.' or something similar to that.
"It's still showing 'Your data is being loaded', so it will take time, hmm." I justified my situation.
No one or other two boys had made back yet here in hotel room. Well it's still evening 6.
Anyway I had not shown anythink like panicing or anxiety as I was already aware how proganoist react of receiving systems in his world or being summoned as well as reincarnated to another world.

Loner System Profile

Greed : Human
Title : Loner
Level : 0 (0/100 Lonely points to level up)
*
Loner System is now loaded, I thought it would be like RPG (Role Playing Game), but it looked like it's totally different. I still had not figured it out yet I should feel happy or sad of having system but when system name indicated that nothing is going to change.
"What type of system is this? It started as Zero." I explained with Anger.
"And system name is loner and even my system title is also loner, What the heck the system is." I moaned.
And system profile flipped back side and new floating screen appeard. I hope I get something exciting.

It looks like I have to select the title which I want to see,hmm. It's purely different system, none of the light novel's systems are matching it. Although let's see what it will bring me. Okay I select 'Loner states'.
*
LONER STATES
. Physical Fitness: 21/100
. Inteligence/Mental : 195/350
. Attack Spell : 1/500
. Defence Spell : 1/500
^ Reflected as your current Level

I stared at the numbers in front of me, a strange mix of emotions swirling in my chest—confusion, frustration, maybe even a flicker of hope. This was my "Loner State." That's what the system called it, anyway. A cold, unfeeling summary of me, reduced to a handful of stats.
1. Physical Fitness: 21/100
I felt my fists clench. Twenty-one. Barely a scratch on the scale. No wonder I struggled with the simplest tasks—running, fighting, surviving. My body wasn't strong enough, and the system wasn't shy about rubbing it in.
2. Intelligence/Mental: 195/350
This one stung a little less. I've always relied on my mind more than my body. Still, 195 felt hollow, incomplete. Was I really only halfway to whatever "perfect" intelligence this system had in mind? Did it even matter if I couldn't defend myself?
3. Attack Spell: 1/500 & Defense Spell: 1/500
And there it was—the real slap in the face. One. Out of five hundred. My so-called "magic" was pathetic, barely a flicker of power in a world where people could probably summon storms or level cities. I couldn't even protect myself, let alone fight back.
This was my "current level," apparently. My starting point. The system might as well have screamed, You're weak. You're nothing. But as much as I hated seeing those numbers, they lit a small fire in me.
I wasn't going to stay this way. I couldn't.
Still to give a thought I had received the system because of I was a looser.
Now Let's check items.
*
Loner Items is empty.
*
Really, System, what type of system you are? Atleast you should have put locked icon there, it's like I just woke up after having a dream of my success trip in this school trip. System sure was useless here specific in the items section.
Then let's see mission, I hope it would easy peasy Misson which must not take much time to complete.

My one year death anniversary was going to be celebrated next year at the same day, I mean today.
About Wake up at 4 A.M. (Local Time),
Who even decided 4 A.M. was a real time? It's dark, it's quiet, and my bed loves me the most at that hour. But nope, the system says I must get up like some ancient warrior preparing for battle.
Push-ups At least 30 times,
Because apparently, my arms need to suffer before breakfast. I don't know why 30 is the magic number, but if I collapse after 29, I bet the system laughs at me.
Ooooh, mysterious. Some hidden nightmare waiting to jump out when I least expect it. Great. Can't wait.
10 kilometers. TEN. I'm not a car. Who's tracking this? Is there a satellite over me? I'm paranoid now.
Another surprise waiting to ruin my week. Thanks, System!
Just throw in a third one while you're at it. Why not? The more, the merrier.
About Daily Mission Reward: Two Point Sets Items,
What are "Point Sets Items"? Are they snacks? Cool gadgets? Mystery trinkets? I don't know, but apparently, they're my prize for being a good soldier.
About Weekly Mission Reward: 200 Lonely Points,
First of all, "Lonely Points"? Is this some kind of emotional blackmail? What do these points even do? Can I trade them for, like, happiness or pizza?
If I fail a task—daily or weekly—the system DEDUCTS money from my pocket.
My. Actual. Pocket. Money.
I'm not even rich! So, basically, every missed push-up or skipped kilometer means less snacks, less fun, and more sadness.
And other titles were locked. After an hour, I went to cafeteria for my dinnner, so that I must complete at 4 A.M. torture tomorrow atleast.
After having my dinner I went to my room and slept.
