16 New Determination (1/2)

Staring at the sheet in front of him, Michael let out another deep breath. It was really a bit overwhelming. A regular high school student's life was already pretty full, if they didn't slack, and he was making his even busier. Still, in a way it was quite interesting. He'd always been a fan of puzzles, and in a way this was just a big optimization puzzle.

Regardless, it was a puzzle for another day. ”It'd be nice if I could make better use of all of this time I spend sleeping,” he mumbled as he crawled into bed.

”...That's nice. Good night, System,” Michael mumbled as he quickly drifted off.

That night, Michael dreamed an incredibly vivid dream. He was back on the track, running as fast as he could, but it felt like innumerable hands were pulling him backwards. As soon as he escaped the grasp of one, two more would grab onto him. In front of him were the figures of the five military students from his class, who were all casually strolling down the track. Despite this, Michael never gained on them, and all he could see was their backs.

Michael slowly sat up in bed, his dream still vivid in his mind. After several breaths, he turned and put his feet on the ground, but continued to stare off into the distance, his vision unfocused. Finally, he sighed, shook his head, and swiftly brought his palms to both sides of his face, producing and audible sound. Finally, he stood up, turned around and made his bed, and made his way to his exercise mat.
