Darius Supreme

Darius tapped his lip calmly. He then called out to Caesar: "Could you explain to me the mechanics of this character sheet? How are stats calculated? How do I increase them?"

{Hello, Darius Stone!}

{To answer your first question, the character sheet is the quantization of your very being. Everything about you calculated and reduced to numbers to give yourself a chance to grasp your qualities as well as faults, so that you may improve on them throughout your journey in the world of Faust!}

{However, they are not just numbers that can be shifted about or played with as you please! They represent your realized potential put in numerical form and will play a vital role in your journey!}

{Strength denotes your physical power in all direct applications, including the ability to lift heavy items, striking power with a blade, or the maximum pulling power when nocking an arrow.}

{Agility denotes your physical speed when moving, attacking, or taking similar actions. It also has the added function of stabilizing your coordination and control. For example, if you reach a value of 500 points in Agility, you will always adapt perfectly to your increased speed.}

{Endurance denotes your physical resilience and vitality. This encompasses your resistance to curses, diseases, or to put it simpler all forms of bodily harm direct or indirect. It determines your general physical stamina, as well as how virile/fertile you are.}

{Intellect denotes your mental power and resilience. This includes defense against psychic manipulation, hypnosis, or special debilitating effects affecting the mind. At the same time, it decides how strong your own psychic, magical, or divinatory powers are. Naturally, it also denotes how intelligent you are as well as your perception of the world around you!}

{Charisma denotes your physical attraction and verbal prowess. This includes matters of the seduction of the opposite or same sex, infatuation, and the general emotional reaction you will receive from those around you. It influences your ability to persuade, negotiate, swindle, and deceive.}

{Luck corresponds to the wheel of fortune. The higher your Luck, the greater the chances of you ending up with exceptionally good results when performing any tasks. Among other things, it might influence your chances of finding good loot from treasure chests, the quality of your loot drops, and fortuitous encounters in your daily life.}

{Each stat is important, and no one stat can claim to be the best! Allocate your stats carefully and do not mistake this reality for a game!}

{To answer your second question, you should know that the average stat points for an adult in this world are 10 in each field!}

{Your Health is calculated by Strength x Endurance, whereas your Mana is calculated by Intellect x Level.}

{In the world of Faust your progress gets measured in levels, with levels 1-20 denoting the Amateur stage, level 21-40 denoting the Journeyman stage, 41-60 denoting the Adept stage, 61-80 denoting the Master stage, and lastly, 81-100 denoting the Grandmaster stage!}

{As you've been told, beyond that lies the Supreme stage, but reaching there will be quite the herculean task. Your suffering in reaching the Adept stage alone is sure to provide the great mistress Vena immense amusement, so we look forward to it!}

{As for your final question, you will be granted 5 Ability Points (AP) and 3 Skill Points (SP) after every level up at the Amateur stage. You will be able to add AP to any of your stats at any time. Similarly, SP can be added whenever you desire to strengthen any one of your skills.}

{You might find methods to increase your AP or SP outside of leveling up through special means, with SP being even harder to acquire for obvious reasons.}

{Due to your Supreme System, there are only 3 ways for you to learn a new skill. The first is through teaching others, or by being taught by a knowledgeable party. The second is through self-creation/training, essentially by developing a new field of your own or practicing an established one satisfactorily.}

{The final method is through skillbooks.}

{As for skillbooks, I will not elaborate on it for now because it is a special feature of the Supreme System. Do note, that skills can only be leveled up with Skill Points and nothing else, no matter how skilled or knowledgeable you might be in that regard.}

{Is there anything else, you don't understand?}

"Could you furnish me with details of the class system?"

{The Class system is split into main classes and subclasses. Your main class will grant you new abilities once you enter a new stage, from Amateur to Journeyman, Journeyman to Adept, and so on.}

{On the other hand, your subclass won't be affected. Additionally, skills are harder to learn by default.}

"You've spoken about leveling up frequently, but have yet to tell me how exactly one acquires experience points?"

{Most classes acquire experience points through killing any living - or unliving - being based on their level. The received amount is fixed, regardless of whether you kill someone or something with ease or through ingenuity and suffering.}

[The value of experience points will solely be based on the difference between your current level compared to the level of your target. Experiment on your own to find the difference in value!]

{Experience points can also be received through special means later on.}

{And this concludes the complete tutorial on the Character menu of the Supreme System. Is there anything you don't understand?}

Darius shook his head. Caesar had been suitably detailed in his explanations, where even the densest of fools should be able to understand and remember the details.

{Then I shall take my leave!}

Darius focused on the Character menu before him. So, if the standard was 10 points in each stat, then Darius was slower and weaker than every living adult … which was kinda obvious since he was still an early teen.

However, his Intellect was monstrous at 21 points, more than double the standard amount for an adult. Then again, he felt it was appropriate given his intelligence and special mental acuity that had been deemed heaven-defying on Earth.

He had always known he was smart, but before today he had never had a specific number or standard to quantify it or contrast it against that of others.

His Charisma was 1.5x that of the average man, which was also understandable given his prowess as a businessman. Not only that, but Darius was averagely handsome as well, so it was fine.

The most surprising thing to him was his Luck which was higher than the average man's. He smirked and thought that it was actually quite natural.

How else could it be that he had lived the life of a villain and got a chance to reincarnate?
