Chapter 7: Status Window [1]
I open the window here.
Just like that.
"Ah, it's so cramped I can't even die!" I muttered, lying down on the floor, annoyed.
The old wooden floor screamed as if it were going to collapse.
As the cold air from the floor seeped into my back, my mind slowly regained its composure.
"…Well, what kind of Royal Road I'm going to enjoy with extras? I'm just crawling up from the bottom like a cesspool," I grumbled, sitting up and leaning back on the bed.
I looked at the status window again.

"…"
Even after watching it again, I was speechless.
Is there such a piece of trash in the world? At this point, it wouldn't be strange to see a showdown between a passing villager A and two proud geniuses.
"Alcohol… I need alcohol…" I muttered, searching for something to relieve the stress of seeing the status screen that was so sober and difficult to look at.
If only it were there, I would really suck it up.
But what can I do?
There isn't any.
I had no choice but to look at the status window again, feeling like I was vomiting blood.
"Oh, really? Do I have to analyze this?" I shook my head repeatedly.
Just looking at it made my eyes feel like they were rotting.
But there's nothing I can do.
If I'm going to find a way to somehow attach a respirator to this crazy character, I'm going to have to analyze it down to the nano level.
"Let's see…"
Name, Max Celtrin.
No problem.
Human, student, male… Up to here, there is no problem.
"Oh my, look at that title."
The Trash heir of the Celtrin family.
The worst trash title that drastically reduces my attractiveness.
There was no answer to this question right away, so I clicked my tongue and moved on.
"E, E, E, E, E… i have prepared the field very meticulously."
A crazy feast of E's.
It's not just E either.
Most of them are E-.
This infamous game, in order to increase the difficulty, categorized the characters using alphabets instead of numbers so that users could not know the detailed stats.
What's so frustrating about this is that even within the same grade, the spectrum can be vastly different up and down.
In terms of numbers, it means that a wide range like 100-150 is grouped together as C.
So, this was a game where it was not uncommon to pick a fight thinking that they were of the same level, only to end up with an absurdly game over.
Even for the same grade, it's like that, but for a lower grade?
It needs no explanation.
"What useless detail," I muttered as I discovered something.
All physical abilities such as strength and stamina are E-.
On the other hand, magic power, which is not related to the body, is relatively better than E.
It seemed as if Max was trying to prove his ruined body by enjoying drinking, dancing, and women.
There it is.
"…Is he a psychopath?"
Charm F-.
Charm is an ability that has a wide range of effects, such as in human relationships and battles with party members.
In this game, where human relationships are so important, such charm was a death sentence in itself.
It means that you don't get any help from your colleagues when you need it.
No, to begin with, I was questioning whether there was anyone I could call a colleague.
"I have to raise this even if I die," I muttered.
Because I knew all too well that leaving the charm in this state would lead straight to a bad ending.
But the problem wasn't just one thing.
The physical abilities that have become obsolete and the magical power that is below standard are also problems.
One side is discarded.
I knew it.
This is where selection and focus are required.
Trying to have it all was a recipe for ruin.
Just thinking about it, it would take at least twice as much effort and time.
I don't have the time or the ability to do that.
In order to avoid becoming a hybrid weak character that is mediocre at both physical and magical abilities, I had to cut one side off here.
'Lower wind friendly,' I thought.
A positive trait that somewhat increases wind attribute affinity.
Thanks to that, the wind magic grade was D-, the highest grade.
…Of course, it is still below average.
Still, I have to save that one and go…
"No, wait."
I was about to choose the magic side, but I squinted my eyes and fell into thought again.
Because I was speaking from the perspective of a hardcore user.
I'd like to look at all the other characteristics before making a decision.
"Yeah, it's better to make sure of everything."
Greed, Spendant, sensuality.
At first glance, it looks like there's a 99.9% chance that it's a negative trash trait, but there's a 0.1% chance that it's not.
It's better to check first than to jump to conclusions.
After reaching that conclusion, I looked at the trait section.
**[Greed]**
- Materialism is the most perfect theory in the world proven by science.
- Money rules the world.
- People who like materialism sympathize with you.
- People who hate materialism will avoid you.
---
"…"
It's trash.
In this game, the strong people worth forming relationships with are mostly people who are indifferent to materialism, while the mediocre people are obsessed with money.
In short, it's a trash trait that only has a low level of favorability to people who truly need it.
I shook my head and moved on.
**[Spendant]**
- If I don't do something stupid even for a day, thorns will grow in my mouth.
- Let's collect luxury goods.
- Your wallet is scattering money around.
- When you spend, 20% of your spending disappears.
"…"
What?
20% evaporates every time I spend?
Every time i spend money, I'm throwing away several times the bank interest.
There is no other trash with such unrecyclable characteristics.
