2024-10-29 19:42:56'Shit. What did I just do?'
That's what Mal thought while still dumbfounded on the spot. Mal looked at his own hands, then one at a time to look at the long sharp branches lying on the ground.
Mal's breath rushed because of panic. With a guilty expression, Mal turned his eyes to Oldeen beside her.
"Whoa!" In contrast to the panicked Mal, Oldeen smiled broadly. "Look! You can master a punch and stab technique like that! What's it called? Ah, maybe we can come up with a name."
Mal grimaced even more hearing Oldeen say that. It wasn't his intention to kill any animal that attacked them. Somehow Mal felt an urge in his chest to stab the animal's heart using the wood in his hand.
"Aish. Are you crazy?" Mal cursed at Oldeen, making Oldeen's laugh disappear. "I've never killed anything before, not even ants—"
"Hey, why are you overreacting so much? I don't think it's a big deal. Besides, that animal just attacked us!" Oldeen said so passionately his eyes widened.
Mall took a shaky breath. Not long after, the system blue beam in front of his face revealed a change in appearance. Making Mal flinch a little in surprise.
[CONGRATULATIONS, THE SEEKER MAL!]
[YOU JUST ACTIVATED THE POWER OF SKILL ATTACK ON MONSTERS AND FIGHTERS!]
[PROCESSING SKILL ENHANCEMENT]
[LEVEL 0 — SKILL POINTS]
[ATTACK ON MONSTERS: 10/100][FIGHTERS: 15/100]Mal frowned even deeper, she looked frantically at the blue screen flashing in front of her face.
"What is this? Why did I get points?" Spontaneously Mal screamed as he jumped.
Suddenly Oldeen was also surprised because of Mal's shriek. He froze for three seconds, watching the excited Mal as if trying to push something away in his face. Oldeen didn't see anything to panic Mal.
"Hey, what are you doing?" asked Oldeen, secretly beginning to think Mal was mad.
Mal stopped waving her hands to chase away the blue screen flashing in front of her face. Instantly, he felt embarrassed for acting like a madman in front of Oldeen.
"Did you get anything?" asked Mal in between a wry smile.
Olden was confused. "Getting the sight of a man in front of me going crazy?" he taunted with a crooked grin.
Mal didn't know why Oldeen didn't make any strange gestures at all. Did Oldeen not get points like that? Didn't Oldeen also have the system screen in front of his face?
Too bad Mal can't see anything. He could only watch his own system screen. Maybe Oldeen has a private system screen, but doesn't act like Mal.
"Never mind, forget it," Mal replied ending with a rough sigh.
Mal's surprise had lessened somewhat. Mal had time to look at the blue screen of the system in front of his face.
[TAP BACK OPTION TO VIEW YOUR FIRST MISSION]
'First mission?' Mal asked in her heart.
"Hey, do you still want to just hang out there?" Oldeen spoke as he was about to step away.
Mal gives the code of raising one hand, indicating wait a moment. With intense curiosity, Mal tapped the back option on his system screen until the home screen appeared.
Mal pressed the option for 'The Seeker Missions' and saw lots of gray boxes with padlocks on them. There is only one more colorful box without a lock. Which means the mission box is already open.
When Mal opened the mission box, he saw a picture of an old but sturdy building. The mall can feel the 'old age' atmosphere of the building. Below the picture, there are a number of things.
[THE VANDELMORK]
[MAIN MISSION: GO TO THE VANDELMORK BUILDING ON THE NORTH SIDE OF THE FOREST]
[SUB MISSION: ASSEMBLY WITH THE OTHER FIVE SEEKERS]
[TIME LIMIT: None]
Mal immediately frowned. The Vandelmork building? How could he know what building it was, when he had just woken up here?
Luckily Mal found an image of an old building on the system screen display that could be opened. A short explanation appears.
[The Vandelmork is a building that served as a shelter when the Dark Clan attacked the Light Clan. This building is also the place where the life source of the gods is passed down. In the Land of Amapherald, there are three buildings for the villagers to gain life and safety, one of them is this building]
[The Vandelmork's Building is located on the north side of the Kaldevera Forest. Fifty meters from the waterfall and the Vork stream]
After reading the description. Mal still can't understand. Mal just took a deep breath as her shoulders relaxed.
"How can I find the building?" muttered Mal grumbling.
'And what exactly am I going there for?' Mal thought.
Mal had no idea what gods were, or Clans of Light and Clans of Darkness. Where is there such a thing in the real world? If it's in the Final Fantasy game, maybe Mal can really believe it.
But this...

The horse's footsteps stopped in front of a dull but sturdy old building.Mal stared at the towering building of The Vandelmork. Not like what he imagined. This building does look abandoned, but it doesn't look damaged at all. In fact it tends to look like a historical building that was treated.Several points on the walls of the building did show damage. But anyone would feel more of a mixed atmosphere that makes the hairs on the back of the neck prickle.No words came out of Mal's mouth when he jumped down from the horse he was riding. Mal's gaze still fixed on the building.'Am I really not dreaming?' Mal thought. He took a deep breath. 'How could that be"Welcome to The Vandelmork building."

Mal didn't know what situation he was in now.Upon hearing the explanation from the man who looked older than Valkery and Olcra, Mal started to feel uneasy. What is the inauguration ceremony? Why are all the adults here emitting a mysterious aura?"Tell me. Exactly what happened?" Mal ventured to say aloud.His resounding voice was able to attract everyone's attention. Mal's serious eyes looked at the adults in front of him one by one. As if urging them to immediately explain.The first to come forward was Valkery. He was about to speak, but the older man in white robes behind him held him back."Valkery, wait. You don't have to say anything." This rebuke was low and likely not sharp, but Valkery stopped short.Even Valkery immediately turned around quickly and bowed. Mal feels weird. Why is Valkery apologizing through his body gestures? Who was that white-robed man?"You..." The man in the white robe spoke, turning his eyes to Mal. Slowly, his steps began to move around the campfire

Mal's consciousness returned with such a strong jolt that he simply sat up. His breath hitched with his heart pounding fast. Mal's mind instantly went blank. The strong pressure in the head that had not faded made Mal's surroundings seem to spin.Finally Mal closed his eyes while giving small massages on his forehead. Mal lowered his head while trying to maintain calm. He felt like he had just had an unsettling nightmare.'What just happened to me?' thought Mal as he tried to replay his memories before his consciousness faded away.Mal repeatedly took a deep breath and then exhaled deeply. But the feeling is not calm. There is a piece of memory that pops up for a split second."You will die in another life if you die in this life of yours."Instantly, Mal opened her eyes and raised her head. Mal looked around. The walls of the room show the impression of an old building. The room he was in now had only a small light, which rested on several torches aligned atop each of the wooden beds
