Kapitel 18: Blindspot.

[You Have Entered The Sleeping Place of Adult Wolf!]

A notification popped up in front of Isaac.

He grabbed his Flintlock into a tighter hold. He leaned to the side, trying to take a peek toward a small open space.

He saw a 5-meter wolf with black fur sleeping on the ground. The wolf's sharp furred tail swayed side to side.

Isaac noticed the floating texts right on top of the wolf's head.

[Adult Wolf]

[Level 9]

[HP: 90/90]

''90... My Flintlock can probably do 60 damage... Not sure is it fixed damage or more random and depends where you hit.''

''I could try to level up and try to beat the Adult Wolf later...'' Isaac murmured.

''I still have six days left to finish the Quest.''

Isaac wasn't feeling very confident about killing the Adult Wolf, but he had a hunch that Kulos might offer the Quest for someone else.

Why else was there such a long time limit?

Higher-level Played could do the quest in an hour, but the time limit was one week for some reason.

Isaac felt like it was suspicious. He wasn't sure what Kulos might be planning and didn't really care.

*Sigh*

Isaac sighed, ''Let's do this...''

He left his hiding spot and sneakily walked toward the Adult Wolf.

Adult Wolf was innocently lying on the ground. His eyes tightly shut.

Soon, Isaac was standing right in front of the sleeping Adult Wolf.

He pointed his Flintlock toward the Adult Wolf's head. The barrel barely touched the fur.

He was about to pull the trigger. However, another idea suddenly popped into his mind.

Isaac shifted the Flintlock Pistol's aim and soon aimed straight toward the sleeping Adult Wolf's closed eyelid!

'I hope this works...'

*BANG*

Isaac squeezed the trigger, and the bullet perfectly penetrated the Adult Wolf's eye.

''RAAAAAWR!'' The Adult Wolf woke up with a cry of agony.

[-63 HP]

[HP: 27/90]

[Adult Wolf Received 50% Blinding Damage!]

''I-It worked!'' Isaac cheered. However, his cheerful face disappeared as soon as it appeared. The Adult Wolf turned his only remaining eye toward Isaac and glared murderously.

''Ah... Right... He had one more eye.'' Isaac turned around and started running away.

''RAAAAAAAAAAWR!'' The Adult Wolf instantly spurted into motion and used his claw to slash toward Isaac.

''UGH!'' Isaac felt something sharp slashing through his flesh but didn't feel any pain that should have come.

[You Lost 25 HP!]

[HP: 40/65]

Isaac sidestepped to the left and dodged Wolf's lengthy body.

He quickly glanced at the reloading time.

[24...]

[23...]

''RAAAAWRR!'' The Adult Wolf angrily turned his head and again attacked with his claws.

Isaac tried to dodge, but Adult Wolf's agility was much higher and did a slashing wound on his waist.

Isaac was sent flying while a message popped up in front of him.

[You Lost 38 HP!]

[HP: 2/65]

Isaac crashed to the ground and lost another 1 HP because of that.

[HP: 1/65]

Isaac gritted his teeth, took his slingshot, put a couple of rocks on the elastic band, and started firing.

[-1 HP]

[-1 HP]

[-2 HP]

The Adult Wolf tanked all the rocks and appeared in front of Isaac.

[Adult Wolf]

[Level 9]

[HP: 23/90]

The Adult Wolf raised its paw and did a downward slash with creepily long claws.

Isaac made a last attempt to survive and leaped to the right. Hoping that the claws wouldn't be able to reach him.

*SWISH*

The claw missed his body barely. The tip of the claw barely managed to scratch through his clothing.

Isaac was again about to dodge. However, he noticed the Adult Wolf looking with confusion around him.

'I am in his blindspot...' Isaac thought and saw the missing eye in the skull of the Adult Wolf.

The Adult Wolf turned toward Isaac, using his snout to smell his opponent. However, another look of confusion appeared on his face.

Isaac had already leaped to the left, trying to stay in Wolf's blindspot!

When the Adult Wolf turned his head toward him, Isaac was already back in the blindspot. To the onlookers, it would look like Isaac was making fun of the semi-blind wolf.

''Finally…'' Isaac murmured and grinned once the long-awaited notifications appeared.

[0...]

[Reloading Is Ready!]

Isaac opened the Flintlock Pistol's chamber, stuffed the bullet inside, took aim, and pulled the trigger.

*BANG*

The bullet perfectly pierced the Adult Wolf's skull, and soon, the large body disappeared into light particles.

[You Killed Adult Wolf!]

[150 XP Earned!]

[Quest Completed!]

[Rewards: 100 White Coins + Relationship with Kulos improved by 10!]

Isaac sighed out of relief.

'Too risky...'' Isaac looked around the surroundings warily.

He had only 1 HP.

Even a Level 1 player could kill him, but gladly no one seemed to be around.

Isaac quickly checked the items Adult Wolf dropped.

[Adult Wolf's Meat (Common)]

[Adult Wolf's Fang (Uncommon)]

''Nice!'' Isaac was satisfied, but he still needed to wait for his orange nametag to disappear and his HP to return.

He climbed to a nearby tree and started waiting.

Meanwhile, he took a glance at his stats.

''10 Stat Points...'' Isaac murmured and decided to put them all on agility.

[AGI: 25 -> 35]

10 minutes later.

The long-awaited message came.

[You have been unharmed for 10 minutes!]

[Your wounds have been healed!]

[1/65 -> 65/65]

Isaac left the tree and started walking out of the forest's depths.

Every now and then, he heard fighting sounds and roars of wild animals.

But, he ignored it all and managed to exit the forest 10 minutes later.

He ran straight toward the village—no more detours.

His orange nametag hadn't completely disappeared— there was still a hue of orange around the edges.

But he thought that it wouldn't matter much.

And he was right.

The Guards only looked at him and decided to keep an eye on him.

Shortly afterward, Isaac entered the Merchant Store and saw Kulos sitting on his chair.

''Young fella, you managed to do it,'' Kulos said with a slightly impressed face.

Isaac nodded and put the Adult Meat and Adult Fang on the desk.

''You managed to get the Fang?!'' Kulos was shocked.

He pondered for a few minutes and concluded, ''Since you managed to complete the Quest so quick... I will give 400 White Coins for these.''

Isaac was surprised but happy nonetheless.

Kulos gave him 400 White Coins, but Isaac still had few items.

He put three leather armors, a green-colored cane, 2 Iron swords, and the Omega Wild Bear's meat on the desk.

Kulos looked at the items and pondered for longer.

''I will give 1500 White Coins for all this,'' Kulos soon offered his price.

Isaac was shocked, he was aware that he would get a lot, but this was more than expected.

'Is this because the relationship was improved?' Isaac didn't know, but he was happy with the money he had received.

Kulos gave him the 1500 White Coins.

Isaac earned a total of 2000 White Coins from that trip alone.

First, the 100 White Coins after completing the Quest.

Then 400 for the Adult Wolf's items, and 1500 for the things he got after killing Tom and the rest.

''Interface...'' Isaac murmured.

Kapitel 19: Update.

Isaac left the merchant store and was wealthier than ever before.

'Should I go see if there is a better weapon on the sale...' Isaac thought and decided on his next destination.

Shortly afterward, he reached the weapon store. Without further ado, he opened the glass doors and entered the shop.

He saw several customers wearing full iron armors. One of them was holding an iron shield, however, was busy enough to not care about the flattering looks he received from nearby players.

'He must be almost level 10...' Isaac assumed while glancing at the burly Knight.

Words [Kornelius] hovered above him.

The level can only be shown if the person wanted to.

Kornelius was obviously a smarter individual and wanted to keep his status concealed.

Isaac as well. He didn't want others to take advantage of his level. Higher-leveled Players might target him for it.

Like when he was still wearing newbie gear, he could feel the stares on his back, and not many were friendly.

Isaac ignored everyone else and wandered around.

He also tried to choose another Flintlock pistol, but couldn't.

'Only 1 is allowed, I guess...'

He only saw swords, shields, bows, and daggers. The Flintlock was apparently the strongest gun available.

Isaac shook his head. The disappointment was clearly on display on his face.

He left the store and began wandering toward the armory.

He hoped that he could buy a better armory.

Shortly afterward, he arrived in the armory and noticed the gloomy old man sitting on his desk. Looking as irritated as ever, like someone had stolen his favorite cupcake.

He looked around the store and couldn't find anything better than iron. He was rather displeased at the options available.

Isaac didn't know whether there was better stuff in the storage. He thought it would be better to ask from the grumpy old man.

''Excuse me.'' Isaac reached the table and garnered the grumpy old man's attention.

''What do you want?'' The grumpy old man questioned.

''Is there better stuff than iron?'' Isaac went straight to the point. However, soon saw the grumpy old man's face becoming even more infuriated.

The grumpy old man's eyebrow fidgetted, ''Is my collection not good enough for you?!''

''J-Just asking... I wanted to find some armor to help me move easier and give me more defense... Iron armor doesn't suit me well.''

Isaac explained with a nervous look. He had a feeling that asking any questions from the old man was the wrong decision.

''Then get lost! You are banned!'' The grumpy old man roared.

''Eh?'' Isaac was confused and soon saw his body hovering above the floor. When he was about to scream, his body landed on the ground, outside the store.

A notification appeared in front of him.

[Reputation with Grumpy Seller Karl has fallen!]

[You are banned from Armory of Swornword!]

''Y-You must be kidding me!'' Isaac shouted, his eyebrow squirmed with clear irritation.

''Fuck...'' Isaac slogged away with an angry look.

''Doesn't matter... I don't need anything from there anyway!''

He thought about choosing the iron armor at first. It could provide more defense, but he would risk his speed and agility. However, it had clear weaknesses that would be lethal to him.

Speed and agility were his strongest points, alongside precision.

He didn't plan to waste his speed for more protection.

''What should I do now...'' Isaac murmured and glimpsed around the street.

He doesn't have anything to do beside hunt monsters to level up.

He could leave the beginner village after level 10. He was sure that there was better stuff in the City.

He thought for a moment and decided to leave the village for now. He wasn't planning to return before level 10.

Once he reached level 10, he would sell his items and leave Swornword Village.

He soon arrived in front of the gates. When he was about to step out, a sound interrupted him.

*Ding* *Ding*

[Server Update in 10 minutes!]

[9:59...]

[9:58...]

''Server update?!'' Isaac exclaimed.

Nearby Players jolted and started shouting in ecstasy. Loud discussions ensued as excited Players were thinking about the possibilities the update would provide!

''But the game was released a day ago... Why does it need an update?''

Isaac kept guessing but thought it must be for a good reason.

'Maybe a bug was found... The tree exploit, maybe?'

''Interface.''

Isaac pressed [Log Out]

His figure began turning into clouds of pixels. His legs were the first one to disappear, and before his body could fall down to the ground, the rest of his body followed.

...

Isaac opened his eyes.

He removed the VR Helmet and lazily stood up.

He stored the helmet back in the box and went back to the wardrobe. Isaac hid the box underneath piles of clothes.

Once he was done, he went to his desk, grabbed his laptop, and went straight to the forums.

As expected, everyone was freaking out. Hundreds of forums popped out with each passing second, making it almost impossible to keep track of them all.

''It can't be a huge update...'' Isaac murmured.

He closed his laptop and left his room.

His mother, Isabella, was still cooking with other caretakers.

It was something she enjoyed doing, and it clearly showed in her movements. Her ponytail swaying behind her while she danced around the kitchen, finishing the cooking with the last changes.

Isaac entered the kitchen and saw his mother cooking while humming a song.

''Hey, mom,'' Isaac said and sneakily went toward the refrigerator.

''Ahaha, not happening,'' Isabella said and tugged Isaac from his shirt.

Isaac sighed and stood next to Isabella.

''Why did you stop playing?'' Isabella asked gently.

''An update is coming,'' Isaac replied.

''Already?!'' Isabella was shocked.

Isaac raised an eyebrow, ''Yes... What is it?''

''A-Ah... Nothing.'' Isabella shook her head, 'Why is the update so soon... It was supposed to come 1 month after the release...'

'Suspicious.' Isaac thought and left the kitchen.

He sat on the couch and opened the TV.

As expected, the News was all about the incoming update.

'It can't be a huge update... The game just got released... Overhyped.' Isaac still was thinking about the update, and he always came to the same conclusion.

Overhyped!

*Creak*

The door to the mansion was opened, and a pretty black-haired girl entered the house

''Mom, is Isaac upstairs?'' Alice shouted while taking off her outdoor clothes.

''No, he is in the living room!'' Isabella's shout came from the kitchen.

Alice turned her head and locked gazes with Isaac.

She beamed and walked toward him.

She sat down right next to him.

''I heard an update is coming,'' Alice said. She was not that much interested in the game.

Isaac nodded, ''Indeed... But it must be a small update.''

Alice nodded. However, the next time she opened her mouth, her voice shook with anxiousness ''I-I heard from classmates that they saw you.''

''I went for a walk,'' Isaac replied.

''Hmm...'' Alice hummed and nodded.

She remembers the scene of her classmates acting like they saw a god after seeing Isaac first time in a year.

They also sneakily took pictures of him, but a group in her school called Cult of White stated that taking photos of him was blasphemy!

They had to delete the pictures but sent the photo to Cult of White's core members before deleting it.

Currently, at the school, they were still kowtowing to the picture of Isaac.

''Isaac-sama... We miss you...'' The members of Cult of White kept murmuring after each kowtow.

Alice gritted her teeth, 'Those creepy bitches... They dare to look at MY big brother's picture with lustful eyes...'

''I will go take a bath,'' Alice said suddenly.

''Mm.'' Isaac nodded

Alice stood up and went upstairs.

Isaac shrugged it off and saw a countdown on the TV.

Countdown until the servers were back up.

[Countdown: 59:35...]

[59:34...]

''59 minutes...'' Isaac murmured.
