2024-10-29 19:42:56After one final look at his stats, Leiu got up and started roaming the forest to locate the beginner's village, and that took him 1 hour, he spent a whole hour to get out of the thick forest tree, find other players and finally find the beginner's village.
The first thing he did was obviously finish the quests, well technically, he already finished them, he just had to go to the person who gave him the quest and get the experience and the reward.
The first quest he returned was the one that needed him to gather snowberries.
"Oh my! Thank you for getting the SnowBerries"
The old lady thanked him and handed him some coppers
+15 Coppers
+2% experience
'2%? Ugh...'
His Level was 10, so of course he would get this little experience, nonetheless, he felt regret, it was a waste of time to do it, but it's too late to regret...
Next thing he did was hand in the other quests.
"Thank you, young adventurer! You got rid of the Bees! You don't even know how much they annoyed us.."
+30 Coppers
+5% experience
..
As he handed the 3 quests, it was time for the final quest, the one for the rabbit fur, as he handed it, he was surprised by what the NPC said.
"Thank you for bringing the rabbit fur, I'll surely give you enough money for your hard work"
Leiu nodded at the middle-aged man as he took the coppers, but the next line is what astonished him.
"Ah ah! If only you had the Superior Rabbit fur, young man, be sure to contact me if you get your hands on it!"
'Hmm, is this a hidden quest or is it because I already have that?'
Leiu smirked and replied
"What if I have it? What will you give me in return?"
Upon hearing him, the middle-aged man jumped from surprise, he looked around for a second before holding Leiu's hands and saying
"You do? Y-you have it?!"
Leiu shook his hands to free himself from the man's grasp, then he said with an annoyed tone
"Yes."
He was annoyed as he didn't like skinship at all, not in-game or in reality, he, who is an introvert have very bad communication and much worse when dealing with clingy people, it's just that he can talk normally to NPC because they are not real but if it's a complete stranger in the real world or even a co-worker, he keeps his distance and remains silent.
"Oh my god! I can't believe it! C-come with me inside!"
As he said that, he stretched his hand to grab Leiu, but the latter avoided the man's hand, after angrily staring at the man, he quietly followed him.
The middle-aged man sold Health Potions of various sizes, there was also Mana Potions which recover mana and various things which Leiu didn't know.
"S-show it to me, I need to see it.."
Once they were inside, he eagerly looked at Leiu, who in return, retrieved the fur from his inventory and handed it to the NPC, he wasn't afraid that he will steal it as it was not reality.
The man inspected the fur as if he was looking at diamond or gold, and holding it as if holding his child, it was funny, as for Leiu, he patiently waited for him.
Leiu was expecting a good offer or reward for the fur, if it wasn't beneficial to him, he'll just keep it until he finds a good use for it.
"It's r-real!!!! I still can't believe it.. it'-"
Leiu interrupted him while saying
"Are you going to buy it or what? I don't have all day"
It was actually true, he didn't have all day, he had work tomorrow, it should be about 14 PM right now, and he should go sleep in 16 or 17 PM as he had work at 22 PM, it's rough, but there's nothing he could do about it.
"Y-yes yes! If you're willing to sell, then I'll buy, definitely buy!"
The man held the fur, hugging it with all his strength, he really didn't want to let go of it, Leiu was sure that it's a rare item, but for him it was useless, so why not profit from it?
"Please wait, I'll be right back."
The middle-aged man carefully put the fur on a nearby wooden table and went to a room not far away, Leiu just sighed and waited for him.
Not even a minute passed and the man came back while holding a box in his hand, he brought it and put it in front of Leiu and said after opening it.
"Please examine it and see if it's to your liking, I will also add 5 silvers!"
Heart Pendant : +3 agility / +2 wisdom
Quality : normal
'Not bad.'
Leiu unconsciously nodded, which made the man even happier, without wasting any second, he took 5 silver coins from his pouch and gave them to the customer, so like that, Leiu got rid of a useless fur while getting a good pendant, a pretty good deal.
Heart Pendant equipped!
He equipped the Pendant and headed for the blacksmith to buy an armor and maybe better gloves and boots, they cost a lot, but he already had enough money.
5 silvers from the man from earlier, almost 2 silvers from the 4 wolves and 2 silvers from the countless Bees and Rabbits. It's 9 silvers, which is a good amount for a beginner, it's enough to buy good equipment.
Once he entered the blacksmith and saw the items and the prices, Leiu was really dumbstruck, not only the prices were bullshit! The items were horrible, added low stats and low durability.
He could only grit his teeth and buy an armor despite it being ordinary, plus its price was a whopping 2 silvers! That's straight out robbing!
Beginner's leather armor : +1 Vitality / +1 Strength
After equipping the leather armor, Leiu checked his stats again.
TITLE : Invincible
Level: 10 Class: NONE
-
Strength: 22
Intelligence: 19
Agility: 22
Wisdom: 18
Vitality: 20
Dexterity: 18
- - - -
Health: 20/20
Mana: 22/22
Stamina: 23/23
The armor didn't add a lot, but the pendant was sure useful, its appearance was hideous, bronze with a black gem inside of it, it was extremely small, you can't see it even if you are near the person wearing it, moreover, the leather armor covered it even more, but it's not like Leiu wanted to show it off.
As he finished preparing everything and bought what's necessary, which was 10 Health potions which recovered 10 points, they cost 20 copper each but it was worth it, they would save his life many times in the future, especially in critical situations.
Of course, you can't use potions continuously, once you used one, you had to wait at least 30 seconds, it was a long time in a fight but that's how it is.
'It's finally time to pick a class! I can't wait'
The village became a bit empty as most of the people went hunting and killing monsters, basically grinding, so besides a dozen of people recruiting party members, flirting or doing simple quests being a 'delivery boy' like every other game, the village was quite calm, unlike when the game opened. After all, it has been a few hours, so people must have gone to work, school or whatever.
To pick a class, you need to go to a special NPC, the assistant who helped him create the character already informed him. It was an old man at the back of the village, every person must go there and pick a class, obviously, it was not instant, you have to do a quest, but it was said that it's easy quests.
Leiu went back to the back of the village, there was literally no one, it's either no one reached Level 10, or they already reached it and got a class, but it's sure that not a lot of people reached Level 10 or there would be more people here.
That was strange since he wasted a lot of time hunting Bees and Rabbits so his leveling wasn't that fast, this can only mean that he's behind.
There was only an old man, he looked very old, face full of wrinkles and a white beard, he was sitting near a pond and silently reading a dusty and thick book.
He didn't seem to notice Leiu who was walking toward him, or maybe he did but still ignored him.
Leiu stopped near the old man, expecting the other party to talk to him, but nop! Not even a sound came out of the old man, apart from a fast glance, nothing happened.
"Old man, aren't you the one who gives class choices?"
Hearing Leiu, the old man put the book down and stroked his beard while saying
"Indeed I am. You... you're a fine young man, hahaha, let's not waste much time, here are your choices.
⚫ Dark Knight (Unique)
⚫ Blade Dancer(Unique)
⚫ Swordsman(Normal)
⚫ Blade Berserker(Rare)

Re; Hell Gate Chapter 8 : Class Quest
Leiu was surprised as most of the classes were special, he really didn't expect this, he didn't do anything that special so he was startled to see so many good choices.It's a pity he didn't know that what he did what practically impossible, who is crazy enough to hunt Bees and Rabbit for several hours? For most people, it's a waste of time.The choice was hard, it's like putting several types of delicious cakes in front of you and telling you to only chose and eat one, it was that kind of situation.
Re; Hell Gate Chapter 9 : First Trial
It's been 30 minutes already, Leiu became annoyed rather than confused, it's like a prank more than a trial, he began regretting choosing this class, first, he thought that this may be a bug, but there's no way there is a bug when it's just launched, right? After all, there was a beta test a few months ago, a game like this should have been tested by the developers countless time to find any bugs.That assumption was quickly deleted from his mind, but if it's not a bug, then what the bloody hell is happening.
Re; Hell Gate Chapter 10 : Unbending Will
Leiu Stamina was almost depleted, 2 points left, his arms and legs trembling, barely able to stand, however, he persevered and his strong will and decent stats allowed him to hold on for thirty minutes, continuously slaying anything that bore its fangs at him.Leiu truly reached his very limits, no matter how strong he is, he couldn't fight anymore, it took him 4 to 5 strikes to deal with beasts now, and even more, his two remaining potions are gone and his health decreased to 6, wounds and injuries covered his body and even the gloves were destroyed now.

35 minutes or so passed, Leiu's Health and Stamina fully recovered, he equipped the old beginner's armor, which was totally useless, at least it wasn't totally destroyed like the newly bought one, as he saw the state of that armor, Leiu could only feel sadness and grief, he lost a whopping 3 silver for it, yet it didn't even last an hour!After taking a breath of fresh yet cold air, Leiu got up and headed upstairs, there is really no use staying here, he tried roaming the manor and inspecting the other rooms, but he couldn't step in them,

As he faced the 4 wooden puppets, Leiu couldn't help but wipe the invisible cold sweat on his forehead, just thinking about that made him feel restless and uneasy.I mean, what are the chances that he could finish hundreds of those puppets, they would jump at him from all directions, unlike the dark beasts which had a large frame, these puppets could easily overwhelm him if they had enough numbers.While gritting his teeth, Leiu stood there, waiting for them to attack, although they gave him 30 seconds between each fight, it was n
Re; Hell Gate Chapter 13 : Myriad Of Puppets
13 minutes or so later, Leiu stood up and finished the shaking puppet, his Stamina was fully recovered, so is his Health. Fortunately, his idea worked, maybe the system or the trial host let him do so as it was simply not possible to finish it without recovering Stamina, anyway, like this, he had more chance win to pass the trial.128 wooden puppet appeared, this time, even more types were added, they held wooden bows and had a set of arrows at their back, Leiu's gaze turned serious as he gazed at them, his previous happiness seemed to disappear and his face turned uglier than it already was.
Re; Hell Gate Chapter 14 : End Of The Second Trial
Not a great increase, but it was enough for him, Leiu was not sure if he can defeat the boss or not, but he was sure that he won't give up without putting a good fight. The boss looked threatening but every monster can be defeated if you can grasp its attacking routine....The giant puppet didn't just stay still, although it's slower than the normal puppet due to its size, that didn't mean it is weak, quite the opposite, in fact, each step it took made the ground shake for a moment.Leiu also charged at it,

Chapter 557 Administrator
Leiu spent quite a long time in the Studying Room. Unfortunately, the available information about the Reverie Comos was lacking and unsatisfactory. It just told him what he already knew: The Reverie Cosmos was a separate plane of existence in Mundus, not unlike the Harrowing. It was accessible only to those with ‘high’ spiritual energy, which was simply not enough to go on.Although, even if Leiu knew how to enter it, he wouldn’t go there, at least not now.There were much more pressing matters than delivering Lost Witch to the Reverie Cosmos. The Hell Gate was about to open and he needed to be there when it did. Once he was done with his pondering, Leiu went to talk to Sumbus Darrar.“So?”The old man was in the ‘Living Room’, gobbling down the delicious feast without a care in the world.After wiping his oily lips, the Necromancer awkwardly laughed,“Her name is Emilia.

It wasn’t Primordial Darkness or simply an overabundance of Darkness energy. This was something else entirely.Before anyone could speak, innumerable lightning bolts pierced through the ‘darkness’, shattering like glass and revealing an empty space not unlike space itself.There were star wars that were far, far away, but most noticeably, the majority of them were caught one supernova after the other.Leiu and Sumbus felt immense dread as an overwhelming pressure assaulted them, locking them into that empty space.

Before returning to the surface, Leiu closed the Void Rift with the Primordial Darkness. He had less than 20% health remaining and his mind was still befuddled.“I’m… okay, Anne.”“Drink this.”She forced him to drink three Health Potions, which did help with the physical wounds.“Leiu.”The Mermaid Queen stood a couple of feet away.

He had hoped the two of them would ‘feel’ differently amidst the action and pleasure, but no such thing happened.The virgin elf was inexperienced, so he took the lead, but having sex like that didn’t really mean anything.

With the help of the Dark Archmage’s spell, Leiu and Anne were able to dive underwater and breathe.

They let out ominous purple glows, all haphazardly scattered everywhere.Albeit not at full speed, Leiu was able to swiftly reach them and used Primordial Darkness to forcefully close them down. Oddly enough, no Voidspawn came out to attack him. Only Void Riftss were present, which, rather than fortunate, felt like a bad omen.Thus, as they kept descending closer and closer to the seafloor, Leiu got rid of any Void Riftss in the way. It was a tedious but not overly-taxing process.Eventually, however, they reached the two, aforementioned, big Void Riftss. They were massive, but

It was still waxing, albeit at a very slow speed.“Two weeks, at most.”“And where’s the gate?”“I… I can only locate it when it is about to open.”As he saw the suspicious stare of the Dark Knight, Sumbus vigorously nodded his head while waving his hands around. “I swear, Dark Knight! I do not dare lie to you!”Seeing how the old man behaved, it was hard to think of him as the one from the legends. He was like an obedient dog, following Leiu and doing everything asked of him.In fact, he was sensible enough to notice Leiu’s relationship with Anne, so he treated the Vampire with the utmost politeness and respect.[User, a suggestion: Eliminate the Administrator in-]‘I
