  • by William Jones With a gleeful expression, Xin went on to inspect the other rare equipment he had acquired. ? Beast Butcher, Axe (Legendary, requires attunement), given by the NPC Cleaver This formidable weapon is crafted from the bones, claws, or teeth of a fearsome beast. When wielded, it allowed the user to tap into the wild nature and savage strength of the creature, granting them a 100% critical attack bonus against beasts. Furthermore, while attuned to this weapon, the user gained a portion of the beast's…
  • by William Jones Skylark continued to grumble to herself as she walked around town, trying to recruit members for the quest. "Ugh, that guy is so frustrating," she muttered under her breath, remembering Lord Schrodinger's refusal to join their group. "Why is this so difficult?" she grumbled to herself. "I should have just followed the guide and bought the instead of trying to take the boat like those other fools." She had never attempted this quest in the past, considering it to be not worth the trouble, so it…
  • by William Jones The next day, Xin woke up to the sound of his mother's voice, shouting at them to wake up. "Come on, you two! It's already ten in the morning!" Still feeling sleepy, Xin tried to go back to sleep, but his mother's voice persisted, as if she was right beside him. "Wake up? It's a Sunday! We're supposed to rest!" Xiaxia complained groggily, clearly not pleased with being woken up. "We've already done all the chores yesterday. We have every right to sleep in," she added. "It's already ten in…
  • by William Jones "The Floating Market will be closed for a few weeks unless you get more oil," Glesga explained. "We'll offer rewards if you retrieve the oil barrels stolen by the Reef Raiders a few weeks ago. I don't want to risk sending patrollers since the town will be left undefended, so we could only rely on adventurers to retrieve the oils. Do you want to accept the quest?" Xin nodded, accepting the quest. There was no time limit, so he might as well take it. He planned to gather better equipment from NPCs and…
  • by William Jones As Xin entered the house, he found Xiaxia sitting in the living room, scrolling through her phone. Her fake blonde hair was wrapped in a towel, and she wore a casual shirt and short shorts that showed off her slender legs. "Hey, you're back! Where have you been?" Xiaxia asked. "Bathhouse," Xin replied, sounding uninterested. "I left you a note." Xiaxia scoffed, not convinced. "Four hours just for a bath? I don't buy it." Xin glanced at her briefly before heading to the bathroom to wash his…
  • by William Jones "Whoa! It really is Xin!" Xin was surprised by Rever's warm welcome. He certainly didn't expect it from the man who he barely interacted with in the past. Rever was still that tall redhead with piercings who approached you like he was going to punch the shit out of you. "Xin! Damn! You're really awake!" Rever exclaimed, sitting down across from Xin with a big smile on his face. "I thought you'd never wake up. I even sent you flowers." Rever was still the same straightforward guy Xin knew. He…
  • by William Jones "Xin?" Xin was surprised to hear a familiar voice calling out his name. Turning around, he saw a woman with shoulder length violet hair. She had a gentle aura surrounding her. Her warm, purple eyes were a little slanted, and her fair complexion and petite figure gave her a soft and charming appearance. She had a sweet smile that could brighten anyone's day. "Yuzuro?" Xin was surprised to find her here. What was she doing in a place like this? Dressed in a kimono for staff, Xin almost didn't…
  • by William Jones After returning home, Xin attempted to log back into the game, but the system kept logging him out, insisting that he needed sleep. "Looks like we can't cheat the system," Xin sighed. He was impressed by how accurately the system detected his need for rest. Within a minute of closing his eyes, he fell into a deep sleep. The next morning, Xin and Xiaxia were met with their usual early morning chores. Their mother had prepared breakfast before leaving for a Saturday meeting with her boss.…
  • by William Jones Xin continued foraging and interacting with NPCs throughout the day. By the time he finished exploring the shore, he felt accomplished, having covered all the NPCs and foraging spots in the area. He felt satisfied with his thorough efforts. Xin examined his loot, and so far, he had obtained: ∥ I T E M S ∥ ? Aloe Vera Stalk x2 (Rare) ? Breath of Life Algae x2 (Very Rare) ? Butterfly Bush Bloom x4 (Rare) ? Maiden's Call Bloom x1 (Very Rare) ? Adamantite Ingot x5 (Rare) ? Glory…
  • by William Jones Xin directed a simple fire spell toward the Vulture, but it only caused a mere 80% reduction in its health. The combination of his weak spell and weapon was not enough to defeat the creature in one shot. The Vulture screeched and lunged at Xin with its sharp claws. Uncertain of how to engage in physical combat, Xin had no other option but to rely on his sword. With the fire spell still on cooldown, he bravely faced the incoming attack and swiftly thrust his sword into the creature's head. When the…
