Chapter 2
Reinea's world. Achievements or a pig in a poke? Target.
The room dispersed so quickly that I didn't even have time to realize at what point in time it happened. Now a vast forest lay before me. The color of the leaves was so deep green that I thought some settings were off. However, the system showed perfect performance.
I felt like I was in a fairy tale. A light breeze greeted me, running chilly across my palm. Wonderful landscape and blue sky without a single cloud. Not at all like our cloudy reality.
A squirrel with a magnificent red tail ran along a thin branch and disappeared into the crown of a tree. In the distance, among the forest giants, a hare flashed. The birds were flying, completely oblivious to me.
Hmm ... curious, so many living creatures. And some strange feeling. Breathing became somehow easier and ... more pleasant or something. How calm and good! Now I will definitely spend more time here than I originally intended.
"Greetings, Reinea!" I shouted, succumbing to some inner joy. - How beautiful you are!

- Wow! What is this to me?! - I was just shocked by this. I just entered the game and immediately a hidden class, a unique task, achievements, and I didn’t even have time to take a step. Something is unclean here, because there are no such gifts just like that.
Achievement earned: Freeloader Ι
Description: Once having received something for free, anyone wants to repeat this situation.
Reward: +1% chance of receiving an unexpected reward, +1% chance of finding orphaned artifacts.
- Well, well, if I blurt out something else, I will get the achievement talker? I chuckled at the multitude of pop-up windows blocking my view. - Plus a percentage of the number of spoken words and plus ten percent of the amount of nonsense contained in them.
It remains only to understand why the administration chose me for this role. Or was it the artificial intelligence running the game? Hmm... very curious. And it's completely incomprehensible.
The latest achievement will not lead me to think that these were gifts from the system. I almost physically felt clouds gathering over me, although the sky was completely clear. Ohhh, I don't like this.
In addition, despite the pathos of the words "unique", "hidden" or some kind of "legendary", I do not see any good properties or rewards from the buns that have fallen on me. There was nothing but pathos in them. In general, empty. Surely this is how players are attracted.
Okay, I'll deal with this issue later. Now it would be necessary to think in what direction to develop. First you need to look at your settings.
Basic parameters:
Strength: 1
Agility: 1
Intelligence: 1
Endurance: 1
Wisdom: 1
Available points for distribution: 5
Hmmm, with such parameters you won’t win much. What did I expect though. Level 1 Superman due to a hidden class. Yep, shh-sh-az. Well, nothing, maybe then I will become one.
And in principle, even before entering the game, I would like to have something in the real world, namely magic. I originally wanted to become a mage here, but I didn't like their limitations.
True, that's just what I think. Since in my understanding a sorcerer is able to learn any magic. But the developers did not think so and divided the magic into different classes that are inaccessible to others.
That is, a necromancer cannot suddenly take and launch a fireball at someone. Honestly, maybe, but only with the help of a scroll. And what kind of magician is this, using only one scrolls of spells that he is not able to learn. That's right, useless!
More precisely, limited, so I was a little upset. But now you can try to make a normal sorcerer out of Neutral in my understanding. Decided! I will study magic. But among other things, do I need some kind of global goal? You have to strive for something.
Earn a hundred million gold? In principle, it is heavy and quite weighty, but not that. Become the king of a country or even unite the lands into a huge empire? Already better, and very weighty.
If you believe the official forum, then none of the players have yet been able to become an emperor or king, and even more so create their own country. But I'm "special". Oh yes, star disease is progressing, and by leaps and bounds. At this rate, in a week I will turn into a huge plasma ball and push the local luminary. And the idea is interesting, by the way.
But something more unusual is needed. Wedged into the local pantheon of gods and even lead it? This is already quite unimaginable and unrealistic. Just right, but not enough just a little.
I still wanted to relax here, so I need to add a drop of pleasure to such a global goal, is it logical? Create a harem of goddesses, mu-ah-ha-ha!
This is a thought, but I won’t talk about it out loud (I’m sure that all the goddesses have already turned their close attention to me). Otherwise, they will be cursed so that they will have to delete the character, because it will be almost impossible to remove a bunch of divine debuffs. I'm not hardcore enough to do that. It's easier to become a god yourself than to remove their special curses.
As they wrote on the forum, one top player had to recreate the character because of one very touchy goddess. She did not like that the holy paladin did not give the artifact that interested her directly into the fragile hands of the celestial who appeared in front of him.
Although who am I kidding, because I will have to correct these most star-studded conquerors of heaven. This is the task worthy of me. The probability of completing the task is negative... for an ordinary person, but I'm "special"!
But still, I will also think less about the goddesses, so that they don’t pay attention to me ahead of time, otherwise they have too much power. I wonder how the admins communicate with them?
Or maybe that's all, and set a higher goal? For example, take a dozen or a couple of dozen blueberry pies and ensure that they meet with all the divine faces, that will be laughter.
Jokes are jokes, and to achieve a high position in this world is worth a try. To begin with, this is what I will make myself my main goal. At the same time I will explore this world.
Okay, something I thought too much, I need to check the inventory and find the nearest city. Nothing interesting, a couple of loaves of white bread, a bottle of milk, a head of cheese and that's it. Good, I won't die of hunger.
Chapter 3First monster. First problems. First trip.I wandered through the forest for about an hour, but I could not find the right direction. Yes, and the area on the map opened up quite a bit. The dimensions of this world were amazing, and if I remember correctly, then Reinea is in no way inferior to Earth, and many believe that it is much superior, if we count the Hellish Abyss, Bright Heaven, and a number of other planes.However, even without them, it is truly huge, and most of it has not yet been explored due to difficult regions, high-level monsters, and the remoteness of some locations from inhabited lands, although there was still a fairly large list of reasons.Very strange, usually players who have just come to this world appear next to small towns or other busy locations inhabited by many low-level mobs. And there is no one here, which, in principle, is not so bad, because I really did not want to communicate with the players.It just so happened that from a certain point
Chapter 4The dense forest is my home. Goblin. Fly agaric.This place turned out to be very interesting and beautiful. The sun's rays broke through the crowns of trees and pierced the ground with bright spears, dispelling the shadow around. A lot of green grass and moss grew below, hiding the berries and mushrooms that I intended to find, but so far it did not work out, apparently, my observation skill was not yet pumped enough. There was still a long way to go, so I started looking through the things that I managed to collect. Fangs, tails and other nonsense that was needed to create potions and pump the Alchemy skill did not interest me yet, but the seeds and the coin are very even.Linden SeedsDescription: Preserved by the fruit's hard bark, the inner seeds are a highly prized ingredient for a number of powerful elixirs. They are seeds glowing with a dim light, very fragile and sensitive to sudden changes in temperature. For growth, the emanations of the Infernal Abyss, the Ligh
Chapter 5Dwelling in the forest. Exercise. Showdown with a bear.The house made me happy. I was afraid that it would look like a somewhat large fox hole, but no, it worked out. The room was illuminated by the dim turquoise light of several mushrooms growing in a special vessel on white stones that looked like chalk. There was a lamp on a round oak table. Nearby were two massive chairs made of the same wood. There was also a closet with a bunch of rubbish and dust. And two more doors: one was locked, but behind the second there was a large pile of dry moss, covered with large pieces of cloth, as I understand it, this is the place where I will sleep. Well, that's pretty good. First of all, I set the anchor point in the bedroom, I will call this room that.So, simply put, the grandfather said to find some creatures, kill them and collect loot. If flocks of damned rabbits don't run after me, then there won't be any problems. Oh how wrong I was...The power of the Guardian of the Forest
Chapter 6Skills. Track. Strike with the most terrible weapon.I woke up already in the morning. A moment later, I was filled with pop-up windows, which were impossible to brush aside, and they very quickly blocked my view.The Observation skill is increased.

Chapter 7Eating death. Battle results. Inventor.The look of the bear was filled with relief and ... gratitude, I guess. Wow, I was able to understand the final death of the undead, well done developed! So to implement something like this ... it must be a genius! And then the bear crashed to the ground, and system notifications rained down. Death Corrosion has been dispelled! The bone bear is dying!Received 1000 experience!Your level goes up! Current level: 5! Amount of experience: (1432/1600)Received 5 stat points!Earned 3 skill points!Achievement earned: "David and Goliath Ι"Description: Fighting someone you couldn't defeat, you showed not only "bravery", but also skill with ingenuity, which allowed you to defeat an enemy that surpassed you in level by more than 10 times.Reward: +1% chance of completely absorbing the attack of opponents that are superior in level to you; +1% chance to deal critical damage to opponents that are higher than you in level; +1% to evade attacks
Chapter 8Echo of the Gardens of Death. Bear target. Cunning Guardian.I stood near the stone for a good half an hour, or rather evil, because I did not understand at all what the bear needed from the stone. Any bone fleas tortured him, and he decided to scratch himself? Somehow, I highly doubt it. If I had an extra stick of dynamite, I would gladly blow up this obstacle. I sat down on this ill-fated stone and continued to think. Slightly dozed off, after which I almost fell, so I decided to lie down and rest right here. You never know what I can do, or maybe my luck will work. I did not rest for long, until from a rather comfortable position I bumped sideways into something sharp. It was a piece of bone, barely peeking out from under the stone. An attempt to move him away was unsuccessful. Even the lever from the first shaft that came across did not help much, there was a catastrophic lack of strength. Forgive me, conscience, but you have to invest a little in this parameter. Ther
Chapter 9Completion of the task. Scull. Old coin.“Just wait, I would like to ask you something,” I stopped the goblin, who was about to disappear spectacularly. “I met a creature called a bone bear here. Do you happen to know anything about this?The guardian of the forest and the fox looked at each other meaningfully, as a result of which it immediately became clear that there was information. Still, well done, these developers, how nice it is to see true emotions on people's faces ... and ahem ... in general, it's understandable.– Stranger, have you already seen this monster? The fox's voice was surprised, and after I nodded, she continued. – This is another unusual creature that lives here, but unlike other monsters, it is straight from the Gardens of Death. Try to avoid such creatures by any means, as you cannot defeat them.“Um… but me.” Words won’t be enough, so I took out the elk-tar from my bag. “Killed one recently.- How?! How did you do this?! the fox exclaimed. – No mat
Introduction from the authorThoughts about the world of Warcraft and its heroes will be expressed here, and therefore it is absolutely not necessary to read these lines, however, it is here that I will state the reasons why the characters of my book behaved in this way and not otherwise, and the events took such a turn.To begin with, the world of Warcraft is unusually bright and colorful, filled with many races, types of magic and heroes, and I really respect those people who created it. Deciding to write a fanfic about this world, I took care to read a book about it, fortunately, I chose the period from the very beginning of history - the time of the existence of the Well of Eternity, which means that all I needed was to read Richard Knaack's trilogy "War of the Ancients". And here I realized that we were not on the same path with the canon ...Why so? Will explain. The fact is that I am quite normal about the existence of a division into dark and light side in books and I don’t ev
