Kapitel 33: Chapter 33 - Stupid Tattered Sword

RememberMe was about to burst into laughter upon seeing Broken's level. He initially just wanted to bully him, but now he felt like he might have gone too far. Broken's level was only 26. He could defeat him without using any armor or weapon

"I think there's something wrong with him. His level is only 26, yet he dared to accept my challenge," RememberMe laughed, turning to his friends.

PussyCat, the female mage, sighed. "Just let him go, RememberMe. You're going too far with this bullying. Look at him; he's just a poor player passing by."

"He doesn't look strong at all," the female archer added. "Though his Spirit Beast is adorable, I'm curious about it."

Broken stood with Polly waiting nearby, not yet in her Battle Form. He deliberately held Polly back, wanting to surprise the arrogant warrior.

RememberMe's level was quite high at 78. This could be advantageous for Broken. If the warrior followed him for the next 24 hours, he could help Broken hunt monsters and gather enough Monster Cores to feed Polly.

Polly, a level 97 Spirit Beast, would benefit significantly from Monster Cores of equal level, especially if they had the chance to obtain Monster Soul Stones. Broken's Bountiful Harvest skill increased the likelihood of such valuable drops.

RememberMe flung his sword to the ground and declared confidently, "I'll give you five seconds to unleash your most powerful attack on me. Take a good look," he said, discarding the armor he had been wearing on his top and letting it clatter to the ground. "I admire your bravery. Now, show me your best attack," he added.

"I'll defeat you without using any armor or weapons. It's only fair since fighting you at such a low level would be too easy with my high-quality gear. Hahaha." RememberMe flaunted his arrogance.

The female archer, Forev, grumbled, "I hope he doesn't regret underestimating his opponent. What a stupid asshole."

PussyCat giggled. "I feel sorry for that level 26 swordsman. He's going to become RememberMe's slave after this. There's no way he can win against him."

PussyCat then said with concern."RememberMe, are you sure of your decision? You are underestimating him too much,"

"Don't worry, he is only at level 26; what could I possibly fear? I'm merely entertaining myself," RememberMe responded confidently.

"But don't forget, he has a spirit beast," PussyCat reminded him.

"Do you think spirit beasts that choose a level 26 player are special ones? Just take a look at that spirit beast - it's just a little cute fox," he answered.

Broken charged towards RememberMe with a sword, and Polly transformed into five foxes, several times larger than before.

RememberMe was taken aback, unable to defend as Broken quickly got in front of him and unleashed an attack with his sword, causing him to fall to the ground instantly.

Broken then delivered several additional strikes, drastically depleting RememberMe's health.

Polly's fox forms also attacked, clawing and tearing at his body. The onslaught was rapid and relentless, leaving RememberMe no time to think about how to fight back.

"Kyaaaa.... Help me!" RememberMe yelled out in distress as his health bar plummeted rapidly.

Soon after, a loud siren blared, announcing that the duel had come to an abrupt conclusion in mere seconds.

RememberMe lay on the ground after he was badly defeated by Broken, he still couldn't accept the defeat, he was in shock.

PussyCat and Forev ran over, and it was clear from Forev's smirk that she was enjoying the situation. "I warned you," she said.

"Did you see this coming, Forev?" PussyCat asked.

"Nine-tailed Fox," Forev replied, nodding toward Polly, now perched in Broken's arms.

"Doesn't it have only three tails?" PussyCat remarked, puzzled.

"It will, after it evolves next time."

Forev continued, "I've studied Spirits and Spirit Beasts, so I knew this wasn't an ordinary Spirit Beast. I suspected its level was much higher than its master's."

RememberMe stood up, still visibly annoyed. "Damn it, why didn't you tell me earlier, Forev? This is really frustrating," he grumbled.

Broken gave the warrior a smug smile. "Now, you're my slave for the next 24 hours."

"Do we need to form a party?" RememberMe inquired.

Broken was still unsure how his Bountiful Harvest skill worked—whether being in a party with others would affect the rate. But he knew he needed to land the final hit on every monster they hunted to maximize the benefits of his skill.

Moreover, Broken had no interest in spending more time with the three players than necessary. So he wasn't keen on forming a party with them.

"I don't think so," Broken replied nonchalantly. "You just have to reduce the monsters' health bar to nearly empty, and I'll deliver the final blow—that way, all the bounty that drops from the monsters will be mine."

Broken then spun around and headed for the forest without pausing to hear the warrior's reply.

RememberMe sensed something was amiss about Broken.

"How are you so powerful when you're only level 26?" he called out, trying to catch up to Broken. Two of his companions rushed after him as well.

RememberMe, a male warrior, PussyCat, a female mage, and Forev, a female archer, knew each other outside the game. They had been playing Immortal Legacy for quite some time and had become quite intrigued by this increasingly popular game, which was being played by many people worldwide.

RememberMe was a tall and well-built man with blond hair. Standing at 1.8 meters (5.91 feet), he was well-suited to be a front-line warrior. PussyCat was a mage with a witch's hat and a blue robe. At 1.6 meters (5.25 feet) tall, her blond hair gave her an even more attractive appearance. The last player was Forev, an Asian girl who was 1.59 meters (5.22 feet) tall, had straight black hair and was wearing a dark gray archer's outfit.

RememberMe glanced at his two companions. "See, he is level 26, but his skill dealt so much damage. Did you see his stupid tattered sword? There is no way the skill came from the sword."

Forev responded, "That's because you didn't wear any armor, you idiot."

"I'm not that stupid; I can do the math. I'm sure he has a skill with high damage. He is only level 26; his stats can't be that high," RememberMe insisted.

The three of them walked, following Broken while chatting with each other.

"Let me follow him; you two go on ahead," he said, sighing.

"No, it's okay; we'll keep you company. I think making new friends in this game will be interesting," PussyCat replied with a wide smile.

"Yes, I'm also curious about his spirit beast," Forev added.

RememberMe then ran to catch up to Broken and walked beside him. "Hahaha, Master… tell me, where did you get that skill? The damage is so high, it's like a magic skill."

Broken, meanwhile, checked the durability of his sword, which was almost completely worn out. A few more uses and it would break entirely.

"I'll lend you a new sword, Master…" RememberMe offered. "I have a level 25 sword. Interested? But tell me about the skill you used to kill me, hahaha."

Kapitel 34: Chapter 34 - Unique-Grade Classes

RememberMe was still talking about the duel he had with Broken, which he lost miserably.

"I'm certain his skill deals massive damage. It couldn't have been a critical hit; our level difference is too great!" RememberMe said confidently. "Somehow, he did it. Maybe he's a cheater, and I'll follow him to find out his tricks, hahaha. If we learn how to cheat in this game, we'll become strong quickly too!"

"There are no cheaters in this game, idiot!" Forev, the Asian female archer, retorted.

RememberMe, slightly taken aback, replied, "We can't be sure until we prove it ourselves."

The three of them continued to follow Broken, who was walking while Polly ran around in the grass.

PussyCat glanced at the fox and murmured, "The fox is so adorable. I wonder if he'll let me pet her," she said, giggling.

"Forev and I will help with the monster hunting," she continued. "I'm sure our new friend needs to level up quickly. He's still only level 26, right?"

"Are you sure?" RememberMe asked.

"Yeah," PussyCat replied. "I think we'd be able to do this much quicker if the two of us helped out. The monsters in the forest are, on average, higher level than us, after all."

The three of them decided to carry out the punishment together. Doing something different from their usual grinding routine was certainly not boring.

[RememberMe Lv. 78 - Battle Guardian]

[PussyCat Lv. 69 - Spell Weaver]

[Forev Lv. 72 - Shadow Hunter]

The three players had yet to reach level 100, the usual requirement for taking the advanced class quest. Nonetheless, Broken was an exception; he had acquired his class in an unconventional manner despite being only level 26. He had a higher grade of class than the others.

They soon stepped into the lush forest, the sun's rays slowly fading as the trees twisted into unnatural shapes. The trees seemed to shiver in their strange forms, and the undergrowth scattered in all directions, creating a hazy light that made the trees appear as if they were drowning in the distance.

The smell of the forest wafted into their noses, evoking a sense of entering a fantasy world. If it weren't for the monsters lurking around, they could have enjoyed the peaceful atmosphere of the beautiful forest all day.

Monsters can be found in various locations with varying levels of intelligence. Those with low intelligence tended to remain in the same area, while those with higher intelligence roamed around. Like most games, when a monster was killed, it would eventually respawn, making it easier to hunt them.

In addition to roaming outside, monsters could also be found within dungeons. These monsters were usually of higher levels and greater difficulty than those found outside. To enter a dungeon, players had to meet certain requirements and were limited to a certain number of entries per period of time.

"Master," RememberMe said as he walked over to stand next to Broken.

With a sarcastic tone, Broken replied, "You're quick to accept your defeat, huh?"

RememberMe chuckled. "I am a player with high integrity, so I will live up to my words. And you don't need to worry; I'm sure we can kill a lot of monsters in this place with the three of us. Do you want to level up immediately? Your level is still so low, after all."

However, Broken didn't seem to hear his question or intend to reply.

"Master, we will be your minions," RememberMe continued. "Are you willing to share the secrets of the cheats you used?"

"Where did that foolish idea come from? Your friend already explained that there are no cheats in this game, didn't she?"

PussyCat and Forev then joined the conversation.

"Immortal Legacy is built on a super AI," Forev said. "Since its development and launch three years ago, no bugs or cheaters have been found. That's common knowledge."

Forev then turned to PussyCat. "PussyCat should have known better."

But PussyCat quickly signaled with her index finger on her lips. Forev realized he had made a mistake and fell silent.

RememberMe continued, "But those stupid Divine Champions, they roam around the game with their ridiculous skills. I think that's worse than cheating."

He then turned to Broken. "Could it be that you're one of the Divine Champions, Master? Hahaha."

PussyCat replied, "The Divine Champions should all be top players by now, right?"

Forev responded, "Not all Divine Champions have revealed their identities. Some still choose to remain hidden. Although, I don't think it will be long before they're all known, especially since the Goddess of Sloth has chosen her Champion."

"The Sloth only has one Champion so far, right? There's still a chance she might choose another," RememberMe replied with a laugh.

As the conversation continued, RememberMe declared, "I'm determined to become the Sloth champion, hahaha. They say the Goddess is incredibly beautiful..."

Forev interjected, "That's just a legend. No one has actually seen her appearance."

RememberMe persisted, "But what about her chosen champion? They must have met in person, right? I've heard so many people talking about it and wishing they could have the same experience. Hahaha."

PussyCat chimed in, "This game is so entertaining. They've designed every important character so exquisitely, both male and female. Some of the princesses and princes are especially attractive."

RememberMe couldn't help but retort, "It's ridiculous how people idolize virtual characters. You're all fools."

Forev shot back, "But you were the one who brought up the beautiful Goddess in the first place, you idiot."

They continued to traverse the forest, chatting among themselves, while Broken led the way, remaining silent.

Forev continued, "There is no way a Divine Champion has a low level. With their privileges, they can easily level up," she said. "Unless…"

"Unless what?" RememberMe turned to her.

"Unless they have just received the blessing and are in the process of gaining levels," Forev explained.

She continued, "But, if we're talking about magnificent skills, there are many factors to consider. Classes also have grades: Common, Rare, Elite, Epic, Unique, and so on. So far, no one has been known to receive a Unique-Grade Class. However, those with Epic-Grade Classes are already among the top players."

RememberMe then turned to Forev. "It's really frustrating. Is there any way I can get those Divine Champion skills and Unique-Grade classes using money?"

PussyCat chuckled and said, "Unfortunately, no."

"What's the point of having all this money if I can't just crush those poor players?"

Forev let out a disappointed sigh, "Tsk. We didn't sign up for this game to cater to your whims, you idiot."

After venturing deeper into the forest, they finally encountered what they were looking for.

"Prepare yourselves, monster attack." Forev shouted, prompting everyone to go on high alert.

Emerging from the underbrush was a creature standing 1.5 meters (4.9 ft) tall, resembling a rhinoceros at first glance. However, as it came closer, its features became more distinguishable.

[Rare - Wild Boar Lv. 80]

"Wait!" RememberMe exclaimed, shock evident on his face. "A Rare level 80 monster?! This is too risky!"

Given the monster's grade and level, it was clear that the creature posed a significant threat, especially since it was above the average level of the four players.

"We need to be extra careful," RememberMe warned. "One wrong move and we could be in serious danger."
