In My Second Life, I Could See My Skills, so the More I Trained, the More Peerless I Became

The true value of iterative trial

“Yasu-kun!”

When I woke up, Ichika-chan, whose eyes were red and swollen, hugged me as hard as she could.

Maybe it was because my status was down, but my chest was suffering a bit from the hug, but more than that.

A meeting with the supreme deity, my first defeat.

As a result, I lost all of my skills and levels, as well as the status that I had been able to see in my second life.

A sense of loss…and regret.

I don’t know why I went through that door, even though I knew it was a good place for them.

Maybe I was too proud; maybe I was getting carried away because I had an easy victory against the 128 gods.

There was too little information about God. It is unexpected that the skill will be blocked.

Even if it was sealed, I thought that if the opponent could not use the skill, I thought that I could push it with the title included, but if only I could not use the skill and the opponent had a higher status than me with the skill included, I could not win…

“I’m sorry. ……”

“No. …… I’m just happy that Yasu-kun is back.”

Because she was hugging me, I couldn’t see her face, but somehow Ichika’s voice was mixed with tears.

I must have worried her, because her eyes were red and swollen.

I’ve never seen Ichika-chan cry …… I’m a huge idiot for making her cry.

I feel like throwing myself on all fours to apologize.

But I didn’t think an apology was the right thing to do here.

I’m not sorry I made her cry, but I’m more happy that she cared for me.

So ……

“Thank you, Icika, I love you.”

“Yeah, me too…….”

Me and Ichika-chan kissed each other on the mouth.

Monday, March 14.

Although I lost my skills and status, I’m glad that I was able to come back with five bodies.

I realized that I was flirting with Ichika-chan … I was a little surprised that it had been three days since that day.

No, well. I challenged a battle against an opponent who claims to be the Supreme God. Well, isn’t it unnatural even after about three days?

Rather, the gods other than Poseidon who came here were too weak.

Looking back on it now, I shudder to think that it’s more than possible that I could have died, I got lucky.

After thinking that much, I borrowed a smartphone from Icchika-chan to fill in the blank for three days and decided to look up information about the upcoming days.

My thing is … I have only one person I want to call, but I’m with her all the time, so I don’t have a turn.

He saved the world from Stampede, who visited three days ago. I would like to confirm the result report.

Well, maybe there’s too much sacrifice to be expected, and it’s only an affair of a popular adventurer.

“He’s a vicious criminal who’s brought demons into the world.”

“Yasushi Sashima is considered to be in violation of international security treaties, and many countries have demanded that he be punished or detained.”

“Yasushi Sashima is a dangerous man with ties to the terrorist organization “The Favored Star”.

“The Prime Minister is very grateful for Yasushi Sashima’s work and would like to award him a medal at a later date.”

The headline on …… Yahoo News was about 80% of the article criticizing me.

The top headline was exaggerated by the reporter to make it look more radical, but the content also said, “It’s strange that so many demons came to visit him and he was able to defeat them alone.

They say the blind prime minister givess a medal, but I’m not fooled by that match-pumping bastard.”

And it was radical …… and, I would say, unpleasant.

It’s understandable that a foreign country who saw my power would want to execute or detain me for the safety of their own defense, but that’s the lowest class of evaluation for someone who saved the world.

I was letting a favored star …… or rather a group of criminals by profession/skill off the hook for my sleepwalking because they were “reformed” and it backfired.

“Yasu-kun ……”

Icika-chan looks at me worriedly and sadly.

My heart hurts. …… This is just the internet, but I probably wouldn’t be able to walk out of here looking like this.

And when I saw the second article and wondered about it, I took a closer look, and it wasn’t the usual house; the interior was similar, but the windows were fitted with sturdy-looking iron bars, and the scenery seen from there was different from the usual.

It looks like the TV and the Internet are connected.

Are we being held for diplomacy?

But when I read this article and saw the situation, the thing that made me most anxious was whether I could protect Ichika-chan now.

At any rate, now I’ve lost my status, skills, and profession, and I’ve become incredibly weak.

The old me would have easily destroyed such a small restraining house.

But now I’m ……

“With this amount, I think Ichika-chan will protect me for the time being.”

And Icika-chan has a high status without me having to protect her.

From a boy’s point of view, I’d rather protect her than be protected by her.

“I’m sorry.”

Ichika-chan apologizes.

“No, it’s my fault that I’ve become weak, and it’s not for you to apologize. ……”

“……The day after Yasu-kun went into battle, a woman who claimed to be the Supreme Being took me and said, …… “If you want to go back, give me all your skills and status.””

The next time I see her, I’m not going to punch her, I’m going to kill her.

I’m already so grateful to Ichika-chan that I can’t give it back even if I spend my whole life. I wonder how to return it any more.

“Thanks, …….”

I hugged Ichika-chan and thanked her, and she replied with a mumbled yes.

◇

However, the more I look at it, the more it is a small restraint.

Losing to the Supreme Being, losing my status and skills, and most of all, the fact that the Supreme Being took away Ichika-chan’s power as well was abhorrent and annoying.

No matter how cute, kind, and angelic Ichika-chan is, and no matter how much my heart has been cleansed, what pisses me off pisses me off.

This is the kind of house I used to be able to easily beat up and destroy. ……

I do some light strength training (push-ups, sit-ups, squats 100 times each) to try to calm myself down, but I’m frustrated with my current situation of being strapped into this tiny house.

Letting those emotions take over, I punched the wall.

–Strangely enough, my body remembered how to hit.

I’ve lost my fighting and physical skills, but I’ve managed to naturally recreate the form I’ve been studying for over two years, the one that gives me the most power with your body weight.

My muscles remembered how to exert themselves, and how to channel the magic I had always put into them.

My mind remembered how to handle magic efficiently, how to deploy several thoughts in the same thing.

DON!!!

A loud bang echoes through the room.

The wall, which had a metal plate embedded in it that seemed to be at least a meter thick, cracked open and made a hole.

No, this plate of metal …… is probably an orichalcone.

I lost my skills, my stats were gone, all my levels and experience were sucked out of me, and I lost my profession.

But my body remembered everything.

I got a sense of it.

Repetitive, tried and tested behaviors not only promote growth – they are not forgotten.

The Supreme Being didn’t take away the unique skills, or couldn’t she?

One thing’s for sure, I’m not getting any weaker.

With this kind of power, even if the whole world becomes a target, I can protect Ichika-chan, and I am relieved by this certainty.
