Jeremy's eyes were focusing on the transparent blue interface in front of him...
...
[Shop]
[Mission]
[Leaderboard]
...
After a bit of pause to think, Jeremy chose to report his mission first and foremost by using his mind to access the [Mission] option.
Soon after, the interface shifted into another one...
There came a long list of missions ranging from the easiest to the hardest. However, before Jeremy could look at his missions' progress carefully, another box of notifications suddenly showed up, overlaying the missions list...
...
[Would you like to report the missions and claim the rewards for completing them?]
[Yes │ No]
...
Upon seeing those notifications, Jeremy focused his mind on the 'Yes' button. Suddenly, a somewhat opaque box appeared with five notification lines on it...
...
[You have received 400 SP for completing the mission, 'Kill 10 skeleton soldiers']
[You have received 1,000 SP for completing the mission, 'Kill 5 goblins']
[You have received 1,800 SP for completing the mission, 'Kill 2 hobgoblins']
[You have received 2,100 SP for completing the mission, 'Pass the easy-difficulty door']
[You have received 1,000 bonus SP for completing the mission, 'Pass the easy-difficulty door' with 100% completion]
...
'Woah, this is a huge reward here. At this rate, I will be able to buy more things.'
When Jeremy saw those five gratifying notifications, he felt so refreshed inside, for his efforts finally paid off in the form of SP. Furthermore, he didn't expect a hidden reward of 1,000 SP at all; still, more SP was always welcomed here...
After some seconds had passed, the notification box disappeared, leaving only the original one behind, which was the missions list.
Now, Jeremy was finally looking at his missions' progress...
...

— Kill 10 imps (2/10)

...
When he saw that he had already completed four out of the ten missions, Jeremy nodded his head satisfyingly at his great results...
'Still, should I kill five humans to complete that mission? I will even get 1,300 SP for completing it.'
After seeing the 5th mission on the list, it was such an enticing mission that anyone could easily complete.
After all, there were more than five people currently sleeping and recuperating their wounds at the corner...
It might not even take 30 seconds to finish the job...
'Hahaha, what a greedy me. If it continued like that, I would receive the trait, 'Greedy', like my past life.'
Upon chuckling depressingly at his greedy self, Jeremy thought about his past life's trait.
After all, when a person lusted over some external things, especially wealth, power, foods, and benefits, while completely disregarding ethics and morals, that person would receive one of the qualifications to earn that sinful trait.
'I had annihilated the entire town full of outlanders for the sake of obtaining that dragon's treasures...'
Shaking his head to disregard those useless and depressing thoughts from his head, Jeremy turned his focus back on the interface which was currently showing [Shop], [Mission], and [Leaderboard].
Then, with a single thought about the [Shop] option, the interface was changed into another one with two options, [Buy] and [Sell], projecting on it.
Again, after seeing those two options, Jeremy chose [Sell]...
...
[Please use one hand to touch the Survival Crystal, while another hand to touch the item you want to sell]
...
Jeremy decided to sell things first before buying anything. Afterward, his left glove started shining lightly into a rectangular-shaped glow.
*Thump*
Not long after, a big sack dropped down to the ground heavily with a thumping sound.
The big sack contained many items within, which were mainly collected from behind the easy difficulty door. A part of them consisted of seven good-conditions swords, two spears, two knives, one mace, three daggers, and medicinal herbs that Jeremy had picked up along the maze's walls.
As for the broken weapons dropping from those weak goblins' hands, Jeremy ignored those things altogether.
Before those people could notice what he was trying to do here, Jeremy hurriedly touched the big sack with his other hand...
...
[Would you like to sell the items for 536 SP?]
[Yes │ No]
...
[You have received 536 SP from selling items]
...
Without any sound or special effect whatsoever, the conspicuous sack miraculously disappeared into nothingness...
'Well, let's look at how many SP I've got now. Also, it's time to go shopping...'
With those thoughts in mind, Jeremy accessed the [Buy] option...
...
[Weapons]
[Clothes]
[Miscellaneous]
[Skills]
[Your Current Balance: 13,252 SP]
...
At the bottom of the interface, there was a new line stating about his current balance...
'13,252 huh... Let's see the items inside those options first. I wonder if they still remain the same or not.'
Having thought of that, Jeremy started accessing into the [Weapons] first, then [Clothes] later, only to find out that every item inside of those two options still remained the same as last time when he took a look at them, with nothing better than common ranked items.
[A/N: Common rank is the worst possible rank of item categories.]
'Well, there are two better-looking spears than my current steel spear displaying in the [Weapons] option, but they are in the same common rank with no magical power whatsoever, the same as my steel spear. As for the clothes, I don't particularly appreciate wearing those leather armors, their ventilating abilities are the worst, and I also have my mana projection to protect me all the time. So, I'd better wear this mysterious-looking hood instead.'
Shaking his head lightly, Jeremy proceeded on to the [Miscellaneous] option...
Currently, the interface in front of him had two choices to choose from, starting from [Daily Appliances], which consisted of many things. For example, cooking utensils, magical refrigerator, watching machine, watch, clock, magical microwave, kettle, magical toilet, and many more things.
The second one was [Consumables], which was consisted of those things that could be used only once or a specific number of times. For example, foods, water, medicine, herbs, mild poison liquids, cigarettes, alcohol drinks, carbonated drinks, snacks, cosmetics, shampoo, soap, flour, and many more things.
The list of items was as long as one could imagine...
'Let's just buy some toilets, for there might be an emergency happening like last time.'
As a result of him already bringing most necessary things from Earth, Jeremy decided to buy five toilets in total. Even though they might not look that expensive, still, each toilet cost Jeremy a whopping 100 SP.
That was, losing 500 SP for mere toilets just like that...
Still, a toilet was something unarguably important to our former sage...
To be more specific, it was for the sake of his pride and dignity that shouldn't be tarnished...
'After all that, I am left with 12,752 SP. Then, the last one, skills...'
After not finding any more attractive item from the [Miscellaneous] option, Jeremy proceeded to the last option, [Skills].
...
Skill no.9, [Fishing Skills]
Skill no.10, [Acting Arts]
Skill no.11, [Cooking Knack]

Skill no.183, [Stealth]
Skill no.184, [Balancing Feats]
Skill no.185, [Breathing Control]
Skill no.186, [Eagles Eyes]
...
'With my 12,752 SP, I can buy literally any skill I want. However, I should buy only one or two skills that will be helpful for me in the immediate future first. Then after accumulating enough SP again, I will come back to buy other helpful skills for my distant future.'
After seeing as many as 186 skills on the list, Jeremy frowned deeply while thinking about practical skills for his current circumstances.
After all, there were 'some' skills that could be very helpful for him in the long run, but it would be immediately considered trash skills if he bought them right now, for their initial capability were like shit.
Those long-run skills needed time to grow...
So, the best and only choice for Jeremy to clear the hard-difficulty door without relying too much on his mana and magic was to choose the skills well.
After standing there, while thinking deeply for more than 5 minutes, Jeremy finally decided...
He chose...
