Master of all, Jack of none

Ainz's mother was washing his clothes and putting him in the crib. Giving him toys to play with, in the meantime. Kissing him on the cheeks then leaving the room. Carrying his unwashed clothes with her.

Living idly with his crib and the same table for him to eat. A nice life of being a helpless baby. Just enjoy the perks of being in a form of an infant.

Just as life was easy, Ainz was in his crib again for some time now. Playing in his crib with wooden toys that were carved to be a human that has a shield and sword. Making it clash with the other toy that was an enemy – a wooden carved dragon.

Making the dragonfly and diving into a human.

'Clash! The human died at its fangs and the dragon ate him. The end!' Ainz said in his mind.

Thinking of all his time, he can't help but think that time was so slow. He threw his toys at the walls of his crib and then pouted.

'Hey System! Can you give me something to do? Something good?'

[Are you sure? I don't see a problem why not]

[Goal: Sit and stand 100 times]

[Reward: +1 physical damage]

Just by seeing it, he was mystified by what kind of oblivion was. Still, he was curious about it and started to do the task. Just like before, he was rewarded handsomely by the System. Something that a one-year-old can do was what his goal was.

Just sitting and standing up. His baby thighs were aching. He can only grip the top of the crib in the pain. Biting his lower lips as he stood up and sat back and forth. Sitting and standing up for some time.

Wiping his sweat while he tucked his hand on the top of the crib. Thinking of resting first. Still, he was halfway through.

'Damn, being in a baby's body sure is a real deal. I can barely stand after reaching fifty. Maybe the system will make me have a body of a wrestler,'

He sat and then stretched for a while, making him loosen up his stiff muscles.

'Head and shoulders, knees and toes, knees and toes, head and shoulders, knees and toes, knees and toes.....' Ainz sings while touching what he was mumbling. Touching his head, shoulders, knees, and, toes.

He suddenly giggled when he remembered that song being sung when he was in school. Making it an icebreaker before they will start the class.

Just from the thought of it, he was embarrassed when he performed the song in front of his classmates. But in his baby form, it was very much to his liking. It felt natural.

After a while, he stood up and sat again. What a silly task for him to do but the rewards were very much too good to be true. Still, it was true despite it being unbelievable. Kudos to the System.

Just repeating the same whole thing for a while, he mastered the same movements. His muscle memory improved a lot by doing so. If he can call it himself, he will be called, "Master of standing up and sitting. Jack of none."

Seems legit for a child like him. Upon making it to the one hundred, his butt slammed to the floor of the crib. Making his butt ache in the process. My thighs were sprained like it was overstretched. Making him massage it while saying baby words.

"Ayayayay!"

'Ouch ouch ouch ow awe! This is hard for a baby to make it to one hundred! Even grown-ups were having difficulty in doing this silly joke!'

[You will be rewarded handsomely for completing the goal]

[Reward for completion: +1 physical damage]

'Wow! +1 physical damage!' Ainz said in his mind in glee. Thinking that he will be having another task to play with. After he completed the task, he felt the reward incorporated within him. Making him feel strong on just a whim.

His eyes glowed as the message was in his front and as well as due to having happiness seen in his eyes. He then lifted his arms high and then shouted with glee. Panting as he rested for a while. Just as he was resting, he was sent another message.

[Another goal for the day]

[Goal: Punch and kick 100 times]

[Reward: +5% accuracy ]

Just after seeing, it, Dezmund can only sigh. He hasn't recovered from the tiring process of making it to one hundred. Just the thought of doing it again made him depressed. But then again, all his worries faded as soon as he saw the reward of the goal for the day.

He stood up and then inhaled deeply. Readied himself into the position of punching and kicking. Squatting position and then started punching the air.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

He punched the air and then accidentally kicked the crib. Making him hop for a while blowing his ached legs. Massaging it for a while.

'No kicking of the crib from now on.' He said then stands up again reignited.

Punched and kicked while alternating both from each other.

Punch

Kick

Soon after, he felt wearier and wearier, making it to one hundred. Ainz collapsed in the crib, panting for a while. His hands and legs were limp like rotten vegetables. Gasping air as he felt light-headed. Soon, he saw the message in front of him.

[Reward for completion: +5% accuracy]

'Woohoo! This is good! I can feel the power! The power without any use!' He bellowed in his mind.

'Just by the looks of it, I will be having an arc just exercising. I think it will take longer.' He said then stared at their ceiling. Thinking of his pitiful life as a baby.
