Villain Is on Vacation



Three days had elapsed since Rain's grueling training regimen had commenced. Lying supine on his bed, he mused on his strenuous efforts.

His relentless dedication over the past 72 hours had encompassed a tireless pursuit of excellence, working tirelessly both day and night. Yet he remained hopeful that his toil would bear fruit in the form of positive results.

Amidst his reflections, Rain uttered a command, 'Status.' Subsequently, a diaphanous window materialized before him.

The appearance of the screen was no stranger to him, for he had often encountered it in the virtual world.

[A/N : (n) means it is a new skill.]

Rain looked at his status window and smiled. "Good. After three days of training, I've made so much progress," he thought to himself.

He was pleased with the improvements he had made.

Most of his progress was due to his [#Hard Worker] trait and the slow restoration of his old powers, which had diminished after he regained memories from his past life.

Over the past three days, Rain had been fully immersed in studying the theories and manuals of Swordsmanship and Marksmanship.

Finally, he had achieved a rank of E-Grade, which was the minimum requirement for enrolling in the academy.

However, he still had a long way to go before he could reach his previous rank of D-.

He had been on the verge of becoming a D ranker before his memories returned, and he was determined to get back to that level. 

[Only Rain measures Rank in (-) () (+). Everyone in this world measures them in the early, mid, and advanced stages.]

According to the plot and Academy's ranking system, most of the first-year students are expected to be D-rankers. However, the protagonist, who is a C-ranker at the entrance ceremony, will be considered quite talented and appointed as the chief of the freshman year.

Remembering this, Rain felt he still needed to work hard. 

He started observing his stats to track his progress.

His strength, stamina, and health had increased and were now in the E range.

Despite this, his intelligence stat remained at a B- grade as he had only rephrased his knowledge about this world.

Therefore, it might be challenging to improve further.

Among all the stats, his Mana, which was initially negligible, had also increased and was now graded F instead of G.

Rain then shifted his focus to his skills.

He trained relentlessly with a sword and swung it like a madman until his Swordsmanship had improved to an elementary level.

Additionally, he acquired a Mana control skill by practicing how to manipulate mana while reading books.

Through hard work and his calm demeanor, Rain also gained a concentration skill that proved to be extremely helpful in both studying and training.

He could concentrate for a short period, and although it sometimes caused him headaches, he could learn faster with it.

Unfortunately, there was almost no change in his life skills.

While Rain read books in the library and trained in his private area, rumors circulated among the staff and others in the main building that he had become a bookworm after getting injured and feeling depressed.

Rain's parents, concerned about his mental health, asked him about it during breakfast.

But he assured them, "It's okay. I'm fine now, and since I just got healed, I don't think training is a good idea. I'm studying for the academy entrance exam instead."

They breathed a sigh of relief.

Upon checking his status, Rain realized that it was time for outdoor training, now that indoor training was done.

As Rain's rank increased, he noticed that many of the artifacts he had accumulated were becoming obsolete.

So he decided to sell them and make some quick money.

The potions he had used for training were finished, and he had almost read all of his manuals, so he returned them to the librarian.

Now that Rain had sold some of his artifacts and returned his manuals, his room was much emptier.

Rain was excited as he thought about his outdoor training plan.

He had been feeling restless lately and decided that he needed to step up his training.

After some time, he came up with a plan that included the following steps:

1. He planned to start with bodyweight exercises, as his stats were mostly E grade and needed improvement. He believed that weightlifting might help raise them.

2. There were no hidden pieces at the academy for Rain, but all of the heroine's routes had hidden pieces.

Many of them were wasted or fell into the hands of some extras, so Rain planned to collect them.

3. The third heroine's capture route was near Rain's city since she was his high school classmate.

They were just casual friends and nothing more. Therefore, he planned to collect some rewards from there, too.

4. Rain needed funds to make his plan a reality, and luckily, he received an allowance every month from his family.

He would use those funds to his advantage. [Pay to Win]

5. Lastly, he decided to keep his plan secret from everyone. He knew that if anybody knew about his plan beforehand, it would be annoying.

As Rain reviewed his "outdoor training plan," he couldn't help but smirk.

Although it was a good plan, one thing troubled him.

He had only four days left before his birthday, and he was tight on schedule. Thinking about it, Rain let out a sigh.
