Chapitre 32: Forest
[Congratulations, you have acquired a gift for newbies. Will you accept it? Y/N]
Roger pressed Y and mumbled, "What fool would turn that down? Why is there even a decline option on things like this?'
[You have claimed a passive ability *farm boost*].
"What the hell does that do? Sounds lame!"
*Ping*
The notification showed a brief description of the skill, leaving Roger speechless.
[Farm Boost - Increases experience gain by 400%. The rate of the boost increases with the player's level].
"Oh, that's cool."
[…]
"Show me available quests."
[Available quests:(2)
Level Up: Level up by killing creatures and absorbing their energy; this is how you gain the experience you need to level up. The monsters give experience depending on their stats, level, and rarity. The stronger a creature is, the more experience the player gets. So go ahead and reach the first level.
Current progress: 0/5 experience gained.
Reward: 3 - reward points. 10- stat points.
Tutorial: This world is hard for low levels, so go step by step up the stairs to heaven. This quest will reward each level until you reach level 15 and take the class quest.
Current progress: Reach level 1.
Rewards: 1 - reward point.
2 - stat points].
"So, I have two passive skills, but no 'active' skills. And my passive skills do not seem to be very helpful in killing. Sloth can give me pain tolerance and healing, which can help me last longer in fights. But …"
[You do not have to worry. First, I would advise you to learn more about this world instead of fighting. You just entered this universe, do not put yourself in danger unnecessarily].
"How do I get abilities?"
[The same way you just got your passive ability, with a reward system. You can exchange every ten reward points for a random reward. These rewards can be skills, stats, knowledge, or even magical artifacts].
"But they are random, right?"
[Indeed, it can be a low-level reward, like a water bottle, up to a legendary artifact. It all depends on your luck].
"I'll be able to use magic at level one, right? I have to invest my status point in mana?"
[Yes, you can get mana by investing your status points in mana.]
"That's valuable information. Thank you, Miss System]
A sweet chuckle came from the system, and it continued talking.
[Speaking of information, I was surprised that you already unlocked the sloth's passive ability. No wonder you barely respond to the pain. You must be very compatible with that sin].
"Is that so?"
[Yes. It might be challenging to unlock the sin's passive ability because it must meet specific requirements. I can not tell you the conditions, but sorry in advance].
Roger nodded and stood up. He looked around his surroundings to check what was going on outdoors.
"No, Miss System, I am already appreciative to have you. You do not have to apologize for something you can not do. Thank you for delivering me what you can."
[You are welcome! I thought you would be much harder to deal with since you acted like a total psycho just a few minutes ago! Even ignored me! hehe~]
Roger stood up and brushed off his clothes. He stretched and walked out of the barn with a smile. He saw a sickle that the original owner used to work with and grabbed it.
[Where do you think you are going?]
"Hunting."
[It would be best if you did not do that. You are level zero. It would help if you waited for a chance; your owner might take you hunting. The original proprietor has always participated in the hunts. Besides, a few bugs are enough for level one]
"Beetles? So I do not have to kill the father?"
[What?]
"What?"
[When you say "hunt," what do you have in mind?]
"I want to murder the fucker who killed me! I'd get experience for that, would not I?"
[ Yes, yes, you would get experience.]
With the new System's help, he secured his future, so he silently thanked Chaos for his gift. He relaxed and let himself dream for a while.
"Quick question, are you even the same Chaos? Or something separate?"
[What do you mean?]
"Not only do you sound completely different, but even the vibe you give is also different." Roger thought to the system.
[So you realized, huh? Quite perspective.]
"I knew it," Roger said, smirking. Chaos did not create the system; he stole an existent one from someone or something so Chaos could act as if he was watching the show. It made sense that Roger was still level zero, despite killing two humans. And he decided not to question it.
Roger looked around. He saw crop fields and, a little further, unfamiliar grazing animals that seemed to be related to cows. The next closest building was about 2 kilometers away by a poorly maintained road. On the road, he notices a weird jelly-like creature. Roger stopped walking and stared at the jelly beast on the sandy road. If he had to live here, he might as well get used to it now.
"I have to find something to exterminate, right?"
[Yes, please don't put yourself in danger and don't kill humans..]
"What?" Roger chuckled, but then he noticed a slime on the road. "Hehe!~ I think I see a perfect prey."
[A slime, huh? It won't harm you. You are fortunate to find something as weak as that being.]
Roger swung the sickle over his head and walked towards the creature. With curious eyes, he gazed at the blue jelly creature. He reached it in a few minutes and sliced the slime. However, that did no damage as the sickle just passed through it without harming it.
"Huh?"
[Haha!~ You're hilarious!~ You do realize that physical damage does not harm the slimes? The liquid that takes the form around its core is not its natural body! I can tell you how to beat it, though. Say, please!~]
A robotic girl's voice giggled at Roger's failure to see seemingly common sense and, with a smug voice, offered help. However, Roger stared at the creature, and his mind was blank. He did not listen to the System anymore. Roger just thrust his palm into the jelly beast and grabbed its core. He ripped it out after getting hold of its essence, making slime evaporate.
[Or you can do this… I won't lie. I did not expect you to rip out its core.]
*Ping*

Roger noticed that only his maximum health increased with leveling up and wondered why.
"So, why am I not in full health? Does adding points to health means I only increase my max health?"
[Quite perspective. Indeed, you will not be able to fight an army and heal yourself by leveling up.]
He sighed as he stared at the status window with disappointed eyes. A few minutes ago, Roger imagined the scenarios where he fights multiple enemies, levels up, and heals up completely, but now that idea was gone. He scratched his head and asked Chaos why he had seven stat points instead of 6.
[Once every five levels, you will get two stat points instead of one.]
"That's quite useful. Is it not?"
[Duh. More stat points are always helpful.]
"Please open an available reward."
[Available rewards(2)
Reward points: 9
Stat points: 22
Do you want to redeem it Y/N]
"Yes, please."
[Current stat points:29]
"Now put ten stat points in mana, and the rest you can distribute between mana and health. "
Roger suddenly felt a surge of energy flowing in his body, and it was a weird and even a little ticklish feeling within his blood. The mana swirled in the belly area and slowly merged with his body. Roger felt an incredible growth in strength.
"This is fantastic!~ Status, pretty please!"

After he saw the status window, Roger was bewildered. Twenty strength, and only two defense. This allocation of points was not what he had in mind when he told the System to distribute the stat points between mana and health.
"Lady System, what is the meaning of this?"
[Is something wrong?]
Roger was expecting her to spread the stat points equally. However, the System just added them randomly.
"Why did you put nineteen points into the health and only one into the mana?"
[You told me to distribute, so I did it randomly. But if you had something else in mind, you should have been more specific.]
"Bruh."
Roger felt awkward and placed a palm on his face. He shook his head and examined the surroundings to see if more slimes were left around. When he noticed a green slime, he walked towards it and instantly killed it.

"Nice. I am almost level seven."
[After level ten, you should get a random reward box.]
The System notified him about the hidden reward awaiting him and confused Roger because he didn't see this in available quests.
"But why was this not listed in the quests?"
[Because it is not the Quest, it's a random reward. I was not expecting you to begin hunting your experience so early, so I did not include this in the available missions. Knowing your personality, I feared you would jump straight into the danger.]
"Then why are you telling me now?
[Because I realized that you're stronger than I expected. So instead of holding you away from it, I highly encourage you to go hunting there.]
"So what are we waiting for?! Let's GO!" he yelled.
Roger began clapping like a madman. The System saw this, began rethinking all its life choices and cursed its luck for putting her into this kind of host. However, there was nothing it could do about it except maybe scold Roger.
