S-Rank Harem: I Became My Character with Extra Control Skill-Chapter 48: Debt - Stat Point Management

Ryan defeated the floor boss with ease.

But at this point, it wasn’t really relevant to him anymore.

After facing the previous boss and Irnina, this one felt more like fighting a group of principalities.

Now that he had reached level 90, he was much closer to the long-awaited Rank A — his original goal when he entered the dungeon.

Before the debt with Karol activated, he asked her to check the dungeon door in case she noticed any enemies nearby.

The status window remained in front of him.

[ CHARACTER STATUS ]

Ryan studied it in silence.

’Where should I distribute the points?’

It wasn’t a simple question.

With his current stats, he could fight with almost any type of weapon. His attributes were distributed almost evenly. That gave him versatility.

And of course, something that was probably impossible for the rest of the adventurers in this world.

But Ryan knew very well that the power of the enemies he had been facing far exceeded his current statistics.

He thought about it seriously.

He didn’t dislike the boomerang. It was a strange but effective weapon, and with fire aura on top it became considerably more dangerous. Still, it was a weapon he had taken from a giant demon in the middle of a fight.

Not to mention it was just a rare weapon.

Sooner or later he would need to get something better. Like an epic weapon, of course he knew that wouldn’t be an easy task.

And depending on the weapon he ended up with, it would be smart to adjust his points toward attributes compatible with that weapon.

’But that can wait for now.’

What couldn’t wait was the problem of speed.

Ryan frowned as he recalled the recent fights.

Irnina moved at a speed he could barely register with his eyes. Solaris too. Helen in serious combat was hard to follow. And if Mirian ever decided to move at full strength, she would probably be the same.

If he had to face another demon with that level of speed without the support of any of them, he would be in serious trouble.

Not because he couldn’t fight.

But because dodging something you can’t even see... is very difficult.

’Agility... there’s no other choice. For now, that’s what will help me the most.’ 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎

He distributed all the available points into Agility.

After all, his stamina and the rest of his skills had increased a lot. He had gained almost 20 levels so far.

So the 600 accumulated points went straight and exclusively into Agility.

The window reflected the change immediately.

› Agility: 2,130

The status window closed.

[Debt Collection Applied]

[Debt Bonus: +50 Points]

[Debt Bonus: +45,000 XP]

’There it is.’

Karol’s debt collection was already delivering its reward, so Ryan didn’t hesitate and also put those new points directly into Agility.

› Agility: 2,180

While Ryan was still distracted managing his points, he suddenly felt a strong tug on his shoulders.

Because something had grabbed him by the shoulders and was shaking him hard.

"Ryan! Ryan!"

It was Helen.

She was shaking him with both hands as if trying to wake up someone who was asleep.

"Huh? What’s going on?"

"What do you mean what’s going on?" Helen let go with an annoyed gesture. "I’ve been talking to you for a while and you completely ignored me."

"Sorry." Ryan blinked. "I was distributing my points and wasn’t paying attention."

Helen crossed her arms.

"Did you level up with that last boss?"

"Yeah," Ryan replied. "I’m already at level 90."

Karol’s footsteps returned from the door.

"Really?" Karol approached with genuine curiosity on her face. "You leveled up that much just while we were here for a short time?"

"Yeah. I fought several principalities and leveled up. Plus the boss on floor 75..."

"I see," Helen said.

Karol stopped in front of Ryan with her arms crossed and an expression that mixed analysis with disbelief.

"Just like that? Doesn’t that surprise you?" She glanced briefly at Helen and Mirian. "It’s not normal for someone to gain so much experience. Yes, killing demons gives more than regular monsters. But at this rate you’re practically already Rank A."

She paused.

"I barely leveled up once throughout the entire dungeon, and I killed eight principalities. Plus all the normal monsters." She frowned. "Of course the dungeon doesn’t give me as much experience since I’m already Rank A. But still..."

Ryan listened without interrupting.

’I had thought about this before but... someone is probably going to notice that I gain more experience than everyone else when killing.’

He processed it for a moment.

’I mean, I have the luck bonuses, plus the experience gained from debts... basically I’m farming experience just by breathing.’

Helen intervened before Karol could continue.

"Calm down," she said. "With Ryan, nothing is ever normal. You should know that by now."

Karol opened her mouth. Closed it. Then nodded with some reluctance.

"Yeah, I get that. I think." She paused briefly. "Well, at this pace, by the time we leave the dungeon you’ll already be Rank A."

Mirian approached with a calm smile.

"Just five more levels and you’ll be Rank A, dear Ryan."

’So you reach Rank A at level 95?’

Ryan’s heart gave a strong thump in his chest before he could stop it.

It was a goal he had held since the first day he understood how this world worked. Advancing in rank.

Of course, his ultimate goal was to reach Rank S, just like his companions.

But you can’t learn to run without first learning to walk — that was Ryan’s current way of thinking.

However, somehow he was already running a lot.

And that before he had even learned to walk properly.

And now he was only five levels away.

From reaching Rank A.

Ryan saved any further reflection for later.

Although deep down he was so excited that for a moment he wished the group of demons Solaris had mentioned earlier were nearby and would attack them.

The group advanced without wasting time toward the remaining floors of the dungeon.

"Then let’s go," Ryan said. "After all, I don’t plan on leaving here without leveling up!"
