Even this system is mocking me now. But I must say that my intelligence stat is considerably higher than the other stats here, and I don't see any HP or MP stats... So, what are these three skills?

This is the skill I used during the fight, but what are the other two?

Because of their sealed condition, I can't even view their skill description. But their level is at its maximum. Is it because of my current physical state that I can't access these skills, or are there any conditions that must be fulfilled? I'll worry about that later. There are other things, such as inventory and store-

"Hey, Finn, is that you?" A dark-skinned man approached me, holding a basketball. It took a while to realise, but... shit! What is this bastard doing here? Wait... did I get all the way to the backstreets while walking around?

The backstreets are a haven for people who have been rejected by society or who do not have a home to begin with. Simply put, it's a slum. A place where the government would not dare to intervene.

"It's been a long time, man. What brought you here? Did your father not tell you how to get home? Or were you sulking over Grace again? Hahaha. " He draped his hand around my neck as if we were good friends. He had to bring that up out of all the things to talk about, uh? I knew this bastard was no good. And of all things, I had to be stuck here with him. I'd rather have gangsters surround me than this cretin.

"Hey, Akoji. How are you doing, man? " I gave him a friendly greeting.

"In fact, you should never have proposed to her. She certainly deserved better. " While staring at the man who threw the ball into the basket, he said.

"Aki! Do you want to play or not?" Someone on the basketball court asked.

"Here you go, man. I need to catch up with my friend here. Isn’t that right, Finn? " He smiled at me as he tossed the ball to him.

What is he babbling about?

"So, as I previously stated—" "I was not the one."

"What?"

"It wasn't me who proposed first," I flatly stated.

"Blegh! As if anyone would believe that. You should not deceive your pals, Finn. I'm your friend, right? riiiiight? " This bastard disgusts me to the core. He was always envious of me since I had everything he could dream of. From luxury to academics, and with a lovely girlfriend by my side. His family is poor, and he developed an inferiority complex because of his drunken father abusing him every day. He must have been ecstatic when Grace broke up with me. Now he wants to act as if we're friends, coming out of nowhere to console me? Is he trying to flaunt his superiority over me? As if I could let that happen. I'm not a pushover, at least not in front of him.

"Why would I lie to you? Because you were always swooning over her? Oh, you had a crush on her, didn't you? When I asked her about you, she said she barely remembered someone who resembled you. I can't blame her; you must have been worth less than a bug in her eyes. I'm disheartened, but I suppose I'm no better than you. She did dump me in the shittest way. " I will never lower myself in front of trash like you.

"You learnt to speak well while you were stuck in that shithole. Maybe your family eats money for meals, so they decided to keep a jobless piece of shit. " If I had the chance, I would crush this bastard's face a hundred times over.

"You got it right, man. My father is so freakin' rich that I have money rolls instead of toilet paper in my bathroom. Sucks to be you, man; you can't even afford to live in a nice place, all crammed together like trash being squeezed into a garbage can. I heard your job barely covers your basic living expenses. If you need any financial aid, just ask me. I could always throw in a few bucks for my friends, right? "

"This shit-"

"Oh my, would you look at that? I have to get home. My gaming buddies must be waiting for me. Aren't games worth more than some shitty girls who come and go, A.K.O.J.I?" I waved goodbye and turned away from him. He was about to curse me, but I didn't give him the chance. It's already too much for one day's worth of shit.

It was already getting dark. I must return to my room and wait. Let Emma make a cup of coffee for me after I take a ba-

"Bam!!" A harsh metal clang resounded as my body twisted before falling unconscious, not even feeling the pain that was about to lash out.
