After a very confusing first day, Adriana woke up after about 4 hours, being in perfect condition, all due to the System, this beautiful and wonderful thing… how the author wished to have only this functionality.
…
Adriana noticed that Ajacky was more motivated than usual, since when she woke up, she was meditating herself and that mysterious gift of hers seemed to be even more efficient, as it seems that she had a considerable jump, since she reached Level 22!
But waking her up, Adriana took her out for something to eat, where Adriana felt a little ashamed of how she treated Ajacky yesterday.
She herself doesn't understand where all that aggression came from, but it seems that it was efficient, since she is very motivated and excited.
…
"What will training be today?!" - Ajacky asked intensely.
"Okay sweetheart, hold on, you're going to burst with excitement!" - Adriana said, rolling her eyes and taking her to a general store.
"What are we here to do?" - Asked Ajacky calmer.
"I've taught you a lot in the last month, so it's time to see how your intuition is, buy the items that will be important for our exploration, likely that we will spend up to 7 days in the forest hunting and training." - Adriana said calmly.
Ajacky was surprised and then thoughtful she asked. - "But… what if I forget something or buy the wrong things?"
"Don't worry, I'm the one paying, so I'll make sure to fix your mistakes in this matter, just go!" - Said Adriana.
Her goal with this short test is to see how well she has memorized the things said in the last month, as well as the items Adriana used on camping trips.
With that, Ajacky thought a lot as she went to get the items, where she would always come to Adriana with her hands full of all kinds of items.
"These we already have, return them and get 5 whetstones, as well as an extra canteen, a few more essentials are missing, think and bring them." - Said Adriana and Ajacky did so.
Adriana then looked at the shopkeeper and brought up the subject, while Ajacky ran around, Adriana looked around and pointed out what wasn't necessary and hinted at what was.
There were a lot of items, but they were essential, so Adriana took one last look at the end, before taking some items off the shelves and going to pay for everything.
She took the opportunity to give Ajacky a leather breastplate, lying that she bought it, but she was the one who created it.
It was a Common quality item, giving considerable defense, its only use.
…
"In the last month, you've learned the basics of fighting and staying focused, these are very important things for both warriors and mages, you don't have any very refined techniques, just the instinct to fight, at first it's more than enough! " - Adiana herself doesn't have any technique or fighting style, but of course she won't say that.
"So… we'll hunt… is it so that I lose my fear of killing?" - Asked Ajacky noticing that the time has finally come.
"You're smarter than I thought, but yes, you were too scared to hold an ax against other people, now you don't tremble when facing me in training, so it's time to stain your hands a little!" - Adriana said calmly.
Ajacky looked down at her hands, which started to shake, but she closed her eyes, calming her mind and soon had a steady gaze.
Adriana liked that look, which made her smile and so she led her into the woods.
...
The periphery of the forest is quite desert, as it becomes the hunters' initial focus, as such they must go deeper into the forest to hunt.
And this forest is gigantic, its end is unknown, but it is full of Demonic Beasts, that is a fact!
Adriana and Ajacky went deeper into the forest, avoiding different groups coming and going, it didn't matter to them.
And after an entire afternoon of advancing, they found nothing suitable for them to kill, just a few common wild animals, one of which Adriana killed to make a stew.
That night they just set up camp, ate and went to sleep.
...
The next morning, they continued deeper into the forest, where Adriana saw on her [Map], blue and red dots facing each other, which she decided to ignore, even as one of the blue dots turned gray.
She's no hero, in fact, she's a long way from being one, so there's no point in wasting time saving.
ROAR!!!
That is, until that roar sounded, a powerful roar filled with something Adriana doesn't understand.
Her curiosity was piqued and so Adriana decided to go take a look, in less than 5 minutes, arriving at the place.
"Ajacky, stay close to me and don't you dare attack!" - Adriana said, leaving Ajacky confused.
Adriana ignored her and moved forward, arriving at an area where she found the corpses of many women, along with a pack of gray wolves with several bone spikes protruding from their bodies.
But Adriana was interested in something specific, a creature about 3 meters tall, a very weak and sparse purple mist surrounds it.
[Hell Wolf(Lv.73) – HP: 2,733 / 3,285]
[Corrupted Wolf(Lv.37) – HP: 1,554 / 1,554]
[Corrupted Wolf(Lv.38) – HP: 1,596 / 1,596]
[Corrupted Wolf(Lv.35) – HP: 1,470 / 1,470]
…
Except for the biggest of the pack, the rest were around Level 35~45, but Adriana ignored that and focused on the Hell Wolf, who ignored the group to look at her, sensing her presence.
Adriana smiled and started throwing Skill Points into [Astral Strength] and [Astral Manifestation]!
In moments [Astral Manifestation] reached Level 20, Adriana opened her eyes wide as she felt the world become something more mystical and profound!
Then it was [Astral Strength]'s turn to go to Level 55!
This resulted in everything being increased by +2, his presence becoming more dominant and his strength more impactful!
Ajacky looked at her in astonishment, feeling suffocated as the energy around Adriana changed.
And then Adriana darted forward as she was covered by a bluish mist, soon arriving before the first Corrupted Wolves, her ax in hand began to cut and tear them!
Parts of wolves flew from the ferocious swing of her axe, then her ax crazily grew to 10 times her size, before she fiercely slashed at the Hell Wolf who charged at her.
BANG!!!
A crash occurred as the Hell Wolf's claws and Adriana's Astral Ax collided.
Both glaring at each other, his huge body landed, but immediately his claws advanced, but Adriana ignored them and attacked the Hell Wolf's face.
The Hell Wolf really wanted to rip Adriana apart, but he sensed more danger than opportunity, so he backed away quickly, which made Adriana smile.
Then Adriana received a fierce impulse of her own making, propelling her forward faster than the Hell Wolf could react.
Then Adriana threw him a slash from the bottom up!
Grrrrrr!!!
The Hell Wolf snarled fiercely as he threw himself backwards in an attempt to dodge, succeeding, but then before his eyes he saw something surreal!
The single-edged axe, having an intense blue glow, had its edge pointed upwards, there was nothing to be done, but a thorn emerged from its back.
He tried to back away, but it was too late to react and the Hell Wolf could only feel as her body was pierced and her bones cracked fiercely!
ROAR!!!
Her painful roar reverberated as she struggled wildly in an attempt to back away.
Adriana allowed him to step back as she reached down and slashed to her side, splitting a Defiled Wolf in half.
"So much rubbish, how about your ugly thing come soon?" -Adriana said pointing to the Inferno Wolf while she smirked.
The Hell Wolf snarled furiously, the wound in his chest magically closing. - "Interesting, you have a good regeneration, I say one of the best considering your level…"
Saying that, Adriana rushed forward and prepared a heavy attack, but the Hell Wolf suddenly began to swell, before opening its mouth and expelling a purple mist.
Adriana sneered, going from a slashing attack to a side, expanding the axe's head further and then waving it, along with she incorporated the Wind Element into the attack, creating a strong wind that returned the mist to its owner!
The purple mist was soon all over the Hell Wolf's face, who then began to agonize as his skin melted, followed by his flesh until it showed the bones.
"Seriously, you puke that shit, but you're not resistant to it?" - Adriana snorted in disdain, not understanding how this species still exists.
But she went ahead and finished off the creature with a good ax to its brain, just to not lose the EXP.
Then she looked at the others, the hunters were managing quite well, not to mention that Ajacky also joined the fight.
Adriana crossed her arms and watched as Ajacky took on a Defiled Wolf, but he seemed to be having a hard time.
'Compared to Versions 1.0 and 2.0, the creatures seem weaker!' - Adriana thought, as she hit head-on with a creature with more than 2 times her level!
Of course, there's the fact that his stats were increased by 10% due to [Boundless Hunter], but even so, it's a huge difference in Levels.
[It's not that the creatures are weak, it's just that it's more balanced, creatures from Tier 0 to 2, they don't have such absurd differences in physical terms, what changes is their size, but from Tier 3, things will get more complex .]
[Note that in the past, the System was still analyzing and formulating what Tiers are, now it has come to a conclusion! The Tiers are evolutionary degrees for every living being, which as soon as it is reached in a natural or forced way, will cause qualitative changes in its being and way of life.]
'But Tier 0, 1 and 2 are the weakest and easiest to reach, correct?' - Asked Adriana.
[99.99% of all creatures that spawn will be between these 3 Tiers, only 0.01% spawn from Tier 3 or above, this was the conclusion of the System, which readjusted the difficulty levels and power scaling !]
Adriana didn't quite understand, but she knows that reaching Tier 3 has become even more important!
…
Ajacky had many disadvantages, but still, she tried her best!
In the face of death, Ajacky's instincts guided her, she concentrated so hard, that the Corrupted Wolf who was so fast and fierce, became slow and predictable.
Through the air she felt and breathed, she discovered the trajectory of her paw, where she waited and dodged, having good vision and area of attack, where she attacked and severed the Corrupted Wolf's paw.
When she did, Ajacky came to, startled, but gritting her teeth, she lunged forward and began a frantic attack on the creature.
At that time, Adriana arrived and stopped her, Ajacky glared at her, before collapsing weakly onto her chest.
Adriana hugged her lightly, before looking at the rest and seeing that they were finishing, then letting them finish.
Soon ignoring them, Adriana focused on the fact that having reached Level 38, she went up 3 levels, little mind how many she killed and the creature 38 levels above her.
She played 2 points on Agility and 1 Stamina.
…
"Thank you very much for your help!" - Said a wounded woman while bowing.
Adriana looked at her and said. - "Return to the village, I think they can."
Hearing this, the woman nodded and asked. - "May I know the names of our saviors?"
"Adriana and Ajacky, be careful on the way back!" -Adriana said having already collected the Demonic Core of the creatures she killed.
Even, she glanced at the one belonging to the Hell Wolf's.
[Unstable Demonic Core (Medium Level): A crystallized Core that is the gathering of all the remaining energy and vitality of a Demonic Creature that has died, but this core is unstable, due to a Diabolic Energy that corrupted the creature!]
Adriana smiled, this smells like a mission and…
[Title: Investigate the Diabolic Source!]
[Tier: 2] [Difficulty: Medium~High]
[Content: You have discovered an energy more evil than usual, something has corrupted these Wolves and you need to know what it is and put an end to it, before more innocent people die!]
[Reward]
- Big sum of EXP!
- +100,000 Credits!
- ???
Adriana smiled, she accepted and I look forward to what awaits her later!
…
"Couldn't we help them?" - Asked Ajacky looking fearfully at the resting group.
"We are no heroines, we are here to profit and that's what matters, we will waste time and effort with them, now stop thinking nonsense and think about your fight, your last attack was very good, but you lost control right after it." - Adriana said calmly.
Ajacky heard this and thought, remembering that unique moment.
"I don't know… it just happened and everything felt so… slow!" - Said Ajacky confused.
"Extreme Focus?" - Asked Adriana to herself, but out loud.
"What?" - Asked Ajacky confused.
"Extreme Focus, it's a state of mind where you go into a state of extreme focus, where everything seems slower, or useless things in your environment disappear and you only focus on one thing, it's like meditation, only aware and in motion .
An example is when someone is tired but still has to work on carrying heavy things, he will do it since he needs the money and it's his job, but his body is tired, but it still holds up, when you least expect it, for that worker, what he must do is carry the heavy thing from Point A to B, everything else doesn't matter!" - Adriana said calmly, Ajacky did not understand this comparison.
Adriana also saw that it made a shitty comparison, she herself didn't quite understand it, but explained it further later, that she focused so much on a moment of need, that it made the world stop, allowing her to think so fast, thus reversing the situation in her favor. .
"Know that it took me a few years to reach a level where I can use Extreme Focus, if you manage to use it willingly, you will be several times more powerful!" - Adriana said seriously.
And that's a fact, it took a while for Adriana to understand what Extreme Focus was, it made her battles easier and predicting enemy movement too.
But it happens that this feeling disappears after a while, the first few times it happens, the world seems to stop, but afterwards, everything seems normal, just that your mind reacts much faster.
…
"Sharpen your axe, if you don't know, learn!" - Adriana said while the two finished setting up the camp.
Ajacky nodded, but… she looked at Adriana, hoping she'd show how.
Adriana looked at her and said. - "My ax doesn't need to be sharpened, so do it on yours, I see several irregularities in the edge."
"But… I really don't know how!" - Said Ajacky pouting.
Sighing, Adriana said how, then Ajacky started.
Adriana cooked dinner, then sat down while it was simmering.
"Why doesn't your ax need it? You used it more than I used mine!" - Asked Ajacky curious.
"My ax was created by myself, to support me in my use of Magic, so treat it like my staff, now, have you ever seen or heard of a Mage throwing a ball of fire at the same time as hitting it with your staff? Obviously not.
When casting a spell, you have to be focused and still, even if you are skilled at moving, you still cannot attack with your staff at the same time as you cast a spell!
But the focus here is that I am able to manifest something like the spirit of my weapon, I use that spirit to attack, as such, it doesn't cause problems with the durability of the axe, it just spends more of my Mana to maintain the resistance and durability of the axe. manifestation." - Said Adriana.
"So you don't attack with the axe, but use it as a base?" - Asked Ajacky scratching his chin.
"Yes!" - Said Adriana pouting, so much explanation to be summarized in this!
"When am I going to learn this?" - Asked Ajacky excited.
"Never, you don't have what it takes!" - Adriana said without hesitation.
"What? Why?!" - Ajacky asked in surprise.
"I can't go into details, it's something more complex, but you are not compatible for this type of training method, so don't think too much, you can create your own method in the future, which can be comparable or even better than what I use !" - Adriana said, even finding it difficult.
But that got Ajacky excited and right after eating, she went to meditate.
Adriana left her brooding while she went off to deal with some sneaky creatures, discovering more of these corrupted creatures.
'I don't know what's going on, but I hope they have a lot more, I think I can reach Level 50 this month!' - Adriana thought smiling as she returned to the camp.
