Chapter 2 - Ch 2

Since I've been given what I consider to be a second chance, I have no right to miss it. I really wouldn't want to die from Thanos' click, or from Darkseid's invasion.

And to achieve the three points above, first of all, I will need money, a lot of money!

I have ten free stats points. I did the right thing, I didn't use them at the very beginning, after all, I still didn't know what kind of world I was in.

Besides, I do not know exactly how I can replenish these points. I don't have a level system, otherwise I would get some points just by leveling up. But, as we have already found out, my system is defective.

So I put all the points into intelligence.

Maybe you're thinking now, why did I raise my intelligence? Better raise your strength or speed, then put on a mask and become a superhero!

Well, first of all, from adding ten points to my existing strength, I'm unlikely to be a match for Superman. Even an ordinary boxer will be stronger than me.

Secondly, I think I can improve my physical performance just by training hard.

And just so you know, I'm not going to sleep in a rocking chair day after day.

My plan is to get myself a super soldier serum. Well, after that, get some mutant DNA, and try to acquire unique abilities.

Don't think anything wrong, I'm not going to kidnap mutants and experiment on them. I'm a good guy!

It's just that maybe in battles with supervillains, they'll drop a few drops of blood, and I'll accidentally pick them up.…

And to pull this off, I need to be smart, no, VERY smart!

But anyway, I plan to train to get my body back to normal. Who knows when I'll be able to find, or invent, something like the Mirocuru serum that Devstroke is packed with.

However, even if I can get myself a super body, I shouldn't forget about my fighting skills.

No, I know how to fight, apparently I don't, but I seem to have experience in street fighting. But how can an amateur stand up in a fight against an experienced fighter?

Therefore, martial arts training is a priority for me.

So, the general plan of action is ready. But first, do I have to solve my biggest problem? How can I earn money? No, it's not like that, where can I get a good start-up capital? Ten dollars, I think, oh, how not enough.

My intuition tells me that I will be able to manage the money quite wisely in order to increase the starting capital several times.

But the question remains open. Where is the money taken from?

I'm not going to steal, I'm a good guy after all. So, think, think… Did I waste ten intelligence points?

And one more thing, while I was thinking about my problems here, I really noticed how my brain processes began to flow much faster. The ten points actually weren't wasted.

But at the same time, I realized that no new information had entered my mind. In other words, I can't become an Einstein just by increasing my intelligence. My memory and logical thinking have improved noticeably, but that's it. I'll have to study a mountain of books to become a good physicist or chemist.

Oh, and I was hoping to become smart like Tony Stark by doing nothing. Not fate… Hard work is the key to success!

I was wondering how to make myself known to the world, and more importantly, where to get the MONEY?!

All in all, it took an hour of hard thinking, and my brain was finally illuminated by the Divine light bulb invented by Thomas Edison.

Getting to my feet, I went to the exit, trying to get away from this dump as quickly as possible, and not inhale his wonderful scent.

Well, Batman, I'm coming!
