BXBX NOVEL Chapter 7 New Features & Skills
After reminiscing about the plot, Rain pondered. "The world is currently in a mess, and the strong prey on the vulnerable," he thought.
"Although this also occurred in the world I left behind, it feels more overt here. You never know when some superpower might kill you." Thinking about the times when he died in the game, Rain's face wrinkled.
He didn't want to die this time, without enjoying his life.
He wanted freedom.
He wanted his [vacation].
"Therefore, I must develop remarkable strength and prepare well, for the plot will soon begin," Rain resolved. Determination burned in his eyes as he clenched his fists. He would do everything in his power to break free from the plot that had entrapped him.
As Rain pondered his next move, a sound interrupted his thoughts.
►[Completed the system modification.]
"Ah, good news," Rain thought to himself. "Let's see what new features the system has and what rewards await me."
╠═⌠ Extra Character System ⌡═╣

'Oh, so many new details.' Rain exclaimed with surprise after seeing new details in his status. Although his stats were the same, still he can see that some new things were added.
Rain saw that he got a new title, so he decided to check its details. He clicked on his title, soon explanation appeared before him.
[Reincarnator: Can receive previous life's skills and traits.]
Rain was happy with the title as he thought - he would greatly benefit from it.
'Because I lived alone in my past life, I gained a lot of skills. My professional skills like - programming will also be a great skill in my arsenal. Even though the world has changed, technology is still used by the people here.'
Then Rain started checking other things.
He noticed that the new stat 'luck' was unlocked. In his status window, there was a luck stat under mana.
However, after reading its value, Rain shrugged his shoulders.
'It's, uh, average. Not like Male leads or Female leads, who have high luck stat.'
Rain guessed he shouldn't compare himself with them as they were like children of heaven.
'It's still higher than my other rubbish stats, though.'
Then Rain saw his traits.
►[Calm thinker: Thinks Calmly. Even in a disastrous situation, you can make decisions calmly.]
►[Hard Worker: After hard work and training. Stats and Skill proficiency will grow faster than the normal rate.]
►[Extra-character: You who hold this title will not be bound by the plotline. You can go with the flow.]
Rain was satisfied with the traits, as they were generated from daily activities.
'With calm thinker, I will be able to make my plans more thoroughly like the last life.'
After all, a Calm mind is your ultimate weapon against all battles.
Rain was conscious that he has to cope with this difficult world from now on. Even if he became extra, he still has his identity - ['Rain Holmes'], which will attract many troubles for him.
Because of his regular hard work in his previous life and this life, he got a hard worker trait. It was a good thing for him.
Because he has to raise his status quickly after getting these nerfs, and the plot is going to start soon, too.
And the best trait is Extra-character.
'Yeah, it is the best.'
Why? Because of this trait, he can stay away from those main characters and plotline. From Rain's point of view, they were just troublesome.

'Looks like I got a jackpot.' Rain smirked as he looked at his skills.
'First, I think swordsmanship and marksmanship are from my current life.' Rain assumed.
In this world, most people use weapons like bows, swords, spears, and others. Among this, Rain is a Swordsman.
Still, as self-defense, many people also learn marksmanship and the calm mind is from the Calm thinker trait.
Life Skills were the genuine jackpot for Rain.
'Looks like system gave me my rewards.
And some of them are also from my previous life. Maybe because of the Reincarnator title.' Rain started observing everything in detail.
Then Rain noticed something odd.
'But their proficiency is high. Perhaps, because of the system's reward - they were upgraded?'
►[Indeed. Host.]
There are also some arts & culture skills. That might come in handy.
Like musical instruments, etiquette, riding, driving, calligraphy, cooking, etc.
After all, even if the world changed. People still need food, water, and air to live. Although you can live without them after becoming a high-ranker.
People get bored and they also do their daily entertainment activities. They watch movies, play games, engage in sports, listen to music, read books, or hang out with friends and family.
Overall, entertainment plays a crucial role in people's lives and is an important aspect of human culture.
'With these skills and stats making a plan will be easier.' He thought.
However, who knows, there might be some variables.
