Status Window Chapter 12 : How to Use Points

12. How to Use Points

"Riiio. Wanna play together today?"

"Nah, I got stuff to do, so I can't!"

"Okay! See ya at school next time then!"

"Yeah, see ya later!"

The fun lunchtime ended, and I hurriedly left school. I ran all the way home. I have to get home quickly and clear the daily quests!

Panting as I covered the long distance, my house came into view. The front is a shop, and the house is at the back. Instead of entering through the shop, I went around to the back, opened the rear entrance, and went inside.

"I'm home!"

Bursting into the house, I went straight to the kitchen. I put down the box and bag that held my lunch sandwich and rushed to my room.

Entering the room, I tossed my bag onto the desk and sat on the bed.

"Now then, let's see today's daily quests..."

I opened the Window and checked the daily quests I saw this morning. Then, I noticed one quest was already completed.

"Oh, the reading quest is completed. Right, I was looking at textbooks in class, so that counted."

This is lucky. I gained an hour.

"Then, maybe I'll start by cleaning my room."

I immediately started moving to clear the daily quests. Fetching the cleaning tools, I began cleaning the room.

Dusting, wiping the desk clean, sweeping the floor, and wiping the floor. When I did that, piron, the notification sound rang.

"Oh, room cleaning cleared! Got 10 points!"

I obtained points more easily than yesterday. Since the quest was similar to yesterday's, I grasped the trick of how to do it. Since I understand how to do cleaning quests, I won't have to think much about them in the future.

"Next, let's do push-ups and squats."

This is the fastest. Getting off the bed, I placed my hands on the floor and did push-ups. A child's body is light, so the load of push-ups is light and very easy to do. However, since my arms have little muscle strength, it doesn't go that easily.

Putting strength into my gradually tiring arms, I somehow finished fifty push-ups.

Next, I stood up and did squats. Perhaps because I usually walk around a lot, my legs and hips are surprisingly strong. It wasn't that painful, and fifty reps finished quickly.

"Let's check the Window... Yup, cleared properly. Next, maybe I'll do one hour of crafting. But what should I do..."

Something using my hands would be good. But crafting in this world is only done by artisans, and other-world crafting seems difficult. Is there anything from my past life's crafts I can do?

I opened the Window and displayed the Point Exchange column. When I searched for things usable for crafting, various items appeared.

"Heh, there's a lot. Is there anything here I could do... Ah, wouldn't this be good?"

What I found was a book on crochet. This uses my hands, and the things I make seem likely to be useful. Yeah, let's go with this.

"Let's see, the book is 5 points. Pretty expensive. But I'll likely use it in the future too, so let's make the investment here."

When I tapped the book, it appeared before my eyes. I took the book and headed to my desk.

"Let's see... Heh, I can make various things, looks fun. I want to make something practical. Hmm... As expected, a bag then."

Flipping through the book, a tote bag caught my eye. It doesn't have a complex shape, and the process is written clearly. I could probably do this myself.

"A crochet hook set is 3 points, and yarn is 1 point per type. If I make this tote bag, I'll use two types of yarn, so I need 2 points worth of yarn."

I opened the Window and immediately tapped the crochet hook set and yarn. Then, the tools appeared on the desk.

"Alright, here we go! Okay, one hour of crafting, let's do this!"

I picked up the tools immediately and started crocheting.

Piron

"Hm?"

While I was concentrating on crocheting, the notification sound echoed. Wondering what it was, I opened the Window, and the daily quest for one hour of crafting had been achieved.

"Oh, I cleared it. Yay, today's daily quests complete!"

Looking at today's Daily Quest column, the word 'CLEAR' was displayed on all quests, and looking at the Gacha column, the number of gacha pulls had increased by one.

"The amount I can get in a day is small, but if I do this every day, it might become something amazing eventually."

If I keep raising my stat values and eventually learn other skills and magic, it will be useful for the future. By the time I become an apprentice, if I have amazing stats and can bang out skills and magic, it'll surely be fun.

Assuming I continue to grow my stats like this, the question is how to use the points. Today I used 10 points just to clear the crafting quest. If I use them like this, points won't accumulate.

"As expected, it's better to save up points. Then exchange the accumulated points for items from my past life and sell them at the shop. And earn money!"

Using them myself is an option, but as a tool shop daughter, I want to try doing business using goods from my past life. Having money is convenient for various things, and if I'm being greedy, I want to change my life into a better one.

"For now, ten days. Let's save points. Also, save up gacha counts. In my past life's gachas, good things happened when pulling in bulk, so let's try experiencing that first."

Saving points, saving gacha counts. My direction has solidified a little.

"The rest is what to exchange points for. Not too advanced, but convenient... is there anything?"

Too advanced is no good, but having no utility is also no good. I looked through the exchangeable items with the search function. Is there anything good... Then, an item caught my eye.

"Ah, if it's this, I haven't seen it in this world, and it's not too advanced. Yeah, let's make the exchange item this."

The item to exchange points for is decided. I'm really glad I found something good. With this, surely it will sell. No, it will definitely sell!

"Kukuku. I'll sell these in bulk and become rich in one go! Just you wait, other world!"

I'm going to win this game!
