Ding! [Opponents detected!] Ding! [Quest Received! Quests Details Quest: Conquer the opponents! Reward: 30 EP and 600 EXP Time limit: Limitless! Penalty For Failure: Getting Killed by the Opponents!] His heart raced as the notifications appeared on his screen. The realization that failure meant death only heightened his fear, making the situation feel even more intense and dangerous. His first quest wasn't as interesting as he thought it would be, but rather terrifying and life-threatening. The thought of facing opponents who were just as skilled and determined as him sent shivers down his spine. He knew that in order to survive, he would have to give it his all and strategize every move carefully. Instinctively, he reached for his weapon, ready to defend himself against the onslaught of attackers. Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! A shot for each of the monsters changed the situation. The monsters were down, and the immediate threat was eliminated. There were all ordinary

"What should I do now?" He whispered to himself. After ruminating for a few minutes, he made up his mind and stood up. He decided to practice basic combat skills before involving himself in a fight again. Although he was much stronger than before and could easily defeat any monster in the set-up, he knew that combat knowledge was very important in a warrior's adventure. It would help him deal with stronger opponents in real life. After all, in real life, there was no way to choose an opponent's level of strength or predict their tactics. Therefore, the warrior understood the necessity of constantly improving his combat skills to adapt to any situation and emerge victorious. By honing his techniques and reflexes, he would be able to face any adversary with confidence and overcome even the most formidable opponents. He took the skill book from his pockets.

Splash! He landed in the stream with a resounding splash. To lure the gouses, he kicked the water several times, but no gouses emerged. He kicked a few more times, but still no gous appeared. It was as if the gouses had noticed his confidence and current abilities. Since no gous was appearing, he wasn't going to waste any more time here. He walked out of the water and went deeper into the thick and dense forest. The deeper he went, the more dense and creepy it became. Due to this, Nathan had no doubt that he would encounter monsters and was ready for it. All of a sudden, a gous leaped from a huge tree and landed on its feet right in front of him. This one was an ordinary level 3. The gous didn't waste any time bowling and stalking; it immediately charged toward Nathan and immediately became a blurry figure in the latter's eyes. As part of what he just learned, Nathan didn't make any moves until the figure was about to collide with him. With fast reflexes, Nathan sidestepped at the

"Do you really know what you're asking for?" Another troop asked while glaring at Nathan with apparent surprise. This man had beards and looked studier than most of the troops. The troop added, "There's only death on the battlefield, and it takes more than just bravery to survive. Consider it carefully." The troops assumed Nathan's bravery was due to naivety and inexperience. They believed that he had not yet witnessed the harsh realities of war and the toll it takes on a person's physical and mental well-being. They worried that Nathan's boldness would ultimately lead to his downfall, as he underestimated the true horrors of the battlefield.  "I'm saying this wholeheartedly. And this won't involve or affect any of you in any way. Why not let me face what I am asking for?" Nathan knew that anything could happen on a battlefield. "Even if I die, it's none of your business."
