The New Lincoln Loud

Chapter 4: Cap 4



although I set my alarm to wake up at 4:30, like yesterday, and to my surprise I woke up 15 minutes earlier!

not only was I sleepless, but I didn't feel any pain in my body, as if it had returned to its peak state after sleeping!

I asked myself, remembering how the authors overexploited it in my previous life, but since I didn't have an ability by that name, I wouldn't be stupid enough to hurt myself and check it out.

Putting on some training clothes, I went downstairs for breakfast and saw my father looking at me with an excited smile from the kitchen.

I looked at the table and saw two plates of eggs, bacon and two cups of coffee.

---------------------Cemment Lynn (Father)-----------------------------

Lynn had a big smile on his face as he sat on the couch and looked at the camera.

"I was nervous when I was waiting for Lincoln to come down for breakfast with me and he didn't show up, but after 5 minutes he did haha1" She said happily as she laughed" I would have been so sad if I had made extra toast for him and he didn't come to eat, I wouldn't have blamed him since he didn't even promise to come back."

---------------------Comment End--------------------------------

"Good morning champ" said my dad with a big smile "I have prepared breakfast, since you are going to train twice a day I made some more, protein is very important!"

seeing his concern towards me really touched me, I didn't even know my dad in my past life, and I doubt he would have done this for me.

" I replied with a smile as I sat down across from him. "Good morning, Papa"

just like yesterday, we both ate in silence, but instead of yesterday when we were uncomfortable and didn't know what to say, today we just enjoyed the silence and ate relaxed.

When we finished, I took our plates and washed them before going for a walk.

Unlike yesterday, I didn't have a mission today, but I didn't worry about that, I made my own mission today.

Today I'm going to walk 12 km in less than 2 hours, I thought resolutely as I started running.

My current constitution level was 50% better than yesterday, so if yesterday I ran 10 km, with 3 constitution points, today I have 4 constitution points, I want to run 12 km!

As soon as I started, I felt like it took me longer to get tired than yesterday.

Within 15 minutes, the first message appeared

[aerobic exercise Lv2]

.....

In 30 minutes, another message appeared

[aerobic exercise Lv3]

.....

another message appeared in 49 minutes

[aerobic exercise Lv4].

.....

another message price in 58 minutes

[+1CON]

.....

in 1 hour and 58 minutes I was able to finish the 12 km I was aiming for!

and I was able to finish it before the 2 hour mark, which made me very happy!

just like yesterday, I was too tired to even read the system notifications, so I laid down on the grass and let my body and head rest.

My skill had been upgraded!

[Aerobic Exercise Lv7

effect: +7% more efficient aerobic exercise increases metabolic rate by 7%].

After a few minutes, I finished resting on the lawn, and walked a few meters to get home and showered before everyone woke up.

When I looked in the mirror, I was surprised to see my new body.

My muscles had increased even more since the last time.

Of course, I didn't gain that from running alone, it was also due to the new diet that was much more controlled than the old Lincoln's, and the system probably amplified the results of my workouts as well.

My charisma hadn't gone back up, but by losing some of my baby fat, my face looked better than before.

Lincoln was not an ugly person, but he was not handsome either, the baby fat did not benefit him in any way, as it did not make him cute or handsome.

Fortunately, the system gave me some charisma points that were slowly transforming me into a superior version of myself.

After finishing my shower, which raised my singing skill to Lv13, I went to my room and turned on my computer, as I couldn't practice guitar without waking up all my sisters, I thought it would be more useful to check my Twitter,

(the main character calls it Twitter, but it's still called Birdie)

To my surprise, I received a message from someone on Twitter who was interested in one of my artworks.

Hi Saber, I see you were a person of culture and I am very interested in one of your artworks, how does it work?

when I saw this man writing to me, I could see my wallet slowly filling up, and he looked like someone decent, I expected to be contacted by a furry person or one of them.

-Hello fellow culture, the artwork costs $30, payment is split 50% at the beginning and 50% when I finish drawing, you just need to send me reference images you want or an explanation of what you want the drawing to look like and I can send it to you by the end of the day.

I thought it would take a while for the man to respond since his last message had been sent several hours ago, but in a few minutes he responded with a big text of what he wanted and some drawings made by him for reference.

When I sent my virtual account for the transfer, the man, who was literally called @the_man, transferred without a second thought, leaving me a little surprised by the ease in which this person trusted me, but I didn't care much as I started to draw the sketch of the drawing.

as my illustration skill at Lv28, I finished the sketch in a few minutes and sent it to the man for his approval.

It didn't take the man a minute to respond with his approval.

In another 45 minutes, I finished the artwork exactly as the man wanted it, and just to be sure, I took a picture of my computer screen with my phone and sent it to him for his approval.

He didn't respond, but sent me $25, thanking me for the drawing and saying the $10 was his tip.

As soon as I sent it, she changed her profile picture and posted it on her feed while tagging me, and dedicating a few words of thanks.

Knowing that it was a free promotion, I also retweeted his post on my profile.

my next customers would probably be friends of this man, so all I had to do was wait for someone to come in.

That extra 40 brought my total to an incredible $57, which almost paid for my guitar!

if this guy tipped that much I could charge $40 to the next customer and see if they want to pay.

I had no plans to get rich doing this, but if I could do one of these a day to make extra money, I wouldn't turn it down, as I needed a lot of money to copyright my songs, as well as help my father with household bills if possible, as the financial problems were more serious than I had originally thought.

Just like yesterday, my mother called from the kitchen when it was time for breakfast,

"Good morning..." I said as I came down the stairs,

just like yesterday, my mother and some of my sisters who were at the table early answered me, and Lori ignored me, although it was easy to tell that they had just gotten up.

Seeing her attitude, I just shook my head and ignored her, knowing I couldn't change her in a day.

....

When I arrived at school today, unlike yesterday when everyone ignored me, today I could feel hundreds of eyes on my back until I got to my Spanish class.

probably what happened yesterday had already spread like wildfire among everyone and their curiosity about me was growing until the next gossip took my position.

Just like yesterday I sat in my seat, reading the books you had taken out of my locker earlier.

During lunch, no one came to bother me, but I didn't feel good, I knew it was the calm before the storm.

I looked around for the idiots who had bothered me yesterday, and saw them eating and talking while looking at me trying to make a domineering expression, but that only made them look like bratty idiots.

Ignoring those jerks, I continued eating while practicing my humming song by myself.

Even the "friends" of this body avoided talking to me after yesterday, they were probably afraid of what would happen to them if they got together with me.

Which was perfect for me, who was a loner by nature, and didn't want to make contact with them.

The rest of the day went by like yesterday, but the change came when I got home.

Since I didn't have to cut Lana's hair, I ended up helping her with her homework and we finished much earlier.

just in time for luna to come home and ask me to cut her hair.

I simply cut her ends since her hair was already quite short but she seemed to like it, as soon as I finished cutting, she took a shower and ran out of the house to somewhere, probably with her band.

When it was all done I spent the next 2 hours practicing my singing and guitar, raising my singing level to Lv15 and my guitar skills to Lv18.

If I put my mind to it I could get my guitar to Lv20 tomorrow and my singing skill in 1 or 2 days.

Out of curiosity, I opened my profile, and was surprised to see that I had gained almost 50 followers, that three of them asked me to sell them a piece of artwork.

one of those people wanted me to do a futanari mother and daughter having sex in the middle of the city, something I refused saying that I didn't do that kind of art.

The other two wanted more normal artwork, one of them wanted the character in my profile picture in a field of flowers, and the other person wanted a drawing of a fox dressed in a tuxedo.

Since they were simple artwork I accepted both commissions, did both drawings in less than an hour and a half, earning $40 and $50 respectively, bringing my total to $147!

I wasn't rich, but it was great to have that income every day.

Just like the previous man, these two clients also posted on his profile, and I retweeted him, gaining a few more followers.

Looking at the time, I decided to turn off the pc and go exercise my muscles.

I increased my bodybuilding skill to Lv5.

when I looked at my weight on the scale, I had gained a few kg in muscle, a small amount, but I was happy with that.

so the next three days went by.

during the three days my routine hadn't changed much.

I had breakfast with dad, went for a walk, did some drawing before going to school, helped lana and lola, who joined in after seeing how fast lana solved her homework with my help. practiced my singing and guitar, did more drawing, did more training with my own weight and went to bed.

Looking at my status screen and the changes on it, I couldn't hide the proud smile on my face.

|--------------------------------------

In just 5 days I had gained muscle mass that would have taken me months without the system, and I even grew 2cm in height thanks to the constitution points, my baby fat was almost gone, as if it had never been there in the first place.

not to mention a change that really surprised me during those days.

As I was studying, regardless of the content I was learning, I noticed that I was slowly contributing to an increase in my INT, and as a result something was changing in my state,

My mana, which was only 100, had now increased to 150, along with my INT increasing from 15 points to 17, meaning that each point would increase my mana by 25 points.

and as my INT increased by two points, the speed at which I learn something increased significantly!

that two point increase for me, who only had 15 before, represented a 24% improvement in my learning speed and mental processing speed, now the speed at which I was learning school subjects was at a completely different level.

at this point I was excited to just read something once and understand it all at once, or even just read half of it and figure out the rest!

I understand why games are so addictive when you see the results of something you've worked hard on, you get so excited.

Speaking of excitement, today would be the day I would record my first song.

And I had already decided what song it was going to be!
