"… Oh, crap… I have to calm down," Ryan muttered. "I can't get excited in this kind of situation since probably thousand of people are dying at this very moment… Maybe this new beginning is becoming more exciting than I thought it would be, but I can't get ahead of myself even though the idea of learning skills and obtaining status points seems very exciting…"
After taking a deep breath to calm down, Ryan finally cooled his head. He would be lying by saying that he hadn't wished for something like that could happen at least once or twice when he was a teenager, but he wasn't a kid anymore. Besides, massive dragons appeared in the sky, and slimes had the power to destroy cars with ease… so his new life wouldn't be as convenient as the delusions he had when he was just a teen.
"I have to leave this place and hide… and then understand the system. Maybe I have to change the order the things a little bit, but… I have to use the status points I obtained," Ryan said and then opened his status screen after checking that there was no other slime around. "I bet dexterity, and perhaps control will help me use with the use of my bow… I thought my skills have grown rusty, but since my dexterity is quite high, perhaps that isn't the case."
Although it was weird that Ryan couldn't see something like his own level, he quickly forgot about it because he understood that the right way to obtain status points would be by using skills and leveling them up. He was quite curious about why he suddenly could see things like that, but instead of worrying about such things, it would better for him to understand the system and its effects.
Ryan could imagine how Class and Race would change himself, Rank was a bit more complicated, but since those were in a blank, his sole option was to study the other status. However, it looked like he would have to be quick because he could hear some noise down the mountain, and the noise was getting closer quite quickly.
"Let's see... it will be a bit dangerous, but I will use all my status points in dexterity," Ryan muttered. "I don't have a melee weapon, nor do I have any offensive skill, so my only choice is to rely on my bow."
Maybe it wasn't a good idea to rely on his game knowledge, but Ryan didn't know anything aside from games that he could use as a reference at that moment. In all games he played and knew, dexterity would increase his power and ability with long-ranged weapons, so possibly that would apply in reality now that he could see and interact with a game-like system.
Regardless, after allocating his points, Ryan retrieved the two arrows he used to attack the slime. As expected, the arrows were still fine since the enemy was weak. Besides, those were the arrows his father had crafted to hunt bears… even though he never had the chance to take a vacation where he could find them.
