Chapter 47: (4). Ian’s Achievent -5
Ian went to the entrance of the Trading Center where an NPC smiled brightly and said, “Contribution
Trading Center. How can I help you?”
It was a female NPC with long, pointy ears like those of an elf’s. She was beautiful. It made even Ian
feel happy, “Oh, I ca to see the artifacts inside.”
“I see. Can I have your na? I will check your current Contribution point.”
Ian nodded, “It’s Ian.”
“Okay, Ian, please wait for a mont.”
The NPC entered sothing into the magic sphere floating in front of the entrance. She was surprised
and ca back to Ian.
“Oh, you are the Pioneer!”
The NPC suddenly turned very friendly. Ian nodded, a little confused, “Eh… yes. How much is my
Contribution?”
“Your Contribution is 5000, Pioneer.”
“Aha, I see.”
It was just as Ian rembered.
Actually, he hadn’t done anything to get more Contribution points after he received the 5000
Contribution by reaching Lv. 50, so it was only natural.
“Please co here, Ian. There are many artifacts and skill books you can get using your Contribution
inside.”
“Okay, thank you.”
The NPC took Ian inside the Trading Center where she smiled and lightly bowed her head, “Ian, take
your ti to look around and tell when you find sothing you want.”
“Okay, I will.”
The NPC went back to her designated location while Ian started to see the items inside the Center.
Ian’s level was not high yet, so he could only see so of the items, but it was still a huge amount.
“No user has gotten an item from here so far.”
It had been less than two days since the Tower was built so there couldn’t be another user who had
any Contribution.
Class quests took so ti, even the simplest ones required more than a day.
Ian picked up items one by one to check their options.
‘Oho, this is similar to the knuckle I just bought on auction!’
It was ‘Ancient Summoner’s Steel Sword’.
Its na, level limit and options were very similar to those of Ian’s knuckle.
Ian checked the necessary Contribution point written in front of the item.
‘Hum, 350 Contribution? This item’s value is 350 Contribution.’
About 200~400 Contribution was given when doing a B rank quest given at the Tower.
So, 350 Contribution wasn’t that big.
Ian suddenly recalled the ‘Dragon Tar’s Feather Accessory’ which he was wearing right now.
‘Is there any item here that is just as good?’
Regardless of its option, the Dragon Tar’s Feather Accessory was a Legend rank item.
Legend rank items were very rare. He had seen them only a few tis before he reset his character
while he saw them only a couple of tis at the Trading Center of the Tower of Archers.
‘I was about… Lv. 80 when I saw a Legend rank item at the Tower of Archers for the first ti.’
The higher your level was, the more frequently you could see high-rank items at the Trading Center.
Ian thought once more that he needed to gain levels quickly.
He worked hard to examine the items in the Center, but they were only as good as each other.
It was only natural, as he was only Lv. 50.
“Hmm… I’m done here now…”
He had found a few good items, but it would be better to search the auction house to buy them.
He thought it would be wiser to save his Contribution points and trade them for better items later.
‘I should go to the next room.’
The next room was the room with the skill books.
He wanted to get at least one good skill book.
‘Let’s start with an Attack skill.’
Summoners had fewer Attack skills and Ian’s Taming Master class’ skills were mainly for Taming
skills.
As a result, Ian had no Attack skill.
Fighting by using pets he had raised well was fun, but participating in battles was just as fun, too.
So, Ian was thinking of buying an Attack skill.
“Veil of Fire? It sounds like a Sorcerer’s skill. Why is it here?”
He took it out and read about it.
[Veil of Fire]
Category: Active Skill
Skill Level: Lv. 0
Skill Rank: Rare
Proficiency: 0%
Usage: 20 Spirit Magic
Cooldown Ti: 3 minutes
Temporarily creates a Veil of Fire by summoning the fire spirit.
When blocking an enemy’s attack with the Veil, it will absorb 350% of the damage according to the
Summoning Magic and give back 200% of the Fire damage.
Required condition of learning: It can be learned only after learning the passive skill ‘Summoning
Spirit of Fire’.
…
Ian’s two eyes sparkled, “Oho, that is how Spirit Magic and Summoning Magic are used!”
He found out the usage of the two class stats he had gotten when he reached Lv. 50.
Summoning Magic determined the Attack Force of Attack Magic, and Spirit Magic was used to
activate skills.
It was like Sorcerers’ mana.
‘Let’s see. How high are my stats?’
Ian opened his statistics window to check the stats.
‘Summoning Magic is at 500 points while Spirit Magic is 100 points… hmm, so if I use this skill now, it
will absorb a maximum of 1750 damages, and give back 1000 as damage. I will be using 1/5 of the
Spirit Magic points I have.’
The skill was not bad.
However, considering its 3 minutes cooldown ti, it wasn’t a great skill, either.
‘Shall I see other skills as well?’
Ian checked a few more skills.
After that, he soon reached a conclusion.
‘Summoner’s Attack Magic are mostly based on summoning spirits. It would be important to decide
which type of spirits to summon.’
Before he chose an Attack Magic, he needed to decide the elent of the spirits he would summon
by using passive skills.
‘Fire and Ice are good too… but I find the Lightning elent more appealing…’
Ian picked up the ‘Summoning Lightning Spirit’ skill and thought about it.
‘I think I should be able to find other pets that can use the other elents’ attacks’
Ian already had an Ice type pet: Big Guy.
As for elents like Fire and Earth, he could think of many monsters to Ta and use, however, he
couldn’t think of a Lightning type monster.
‘Let’s buy a Lightning type Attack Magic now.’
It wasn’t like he couldn’t learn the other elents’ Spirit Summoning because he learned the Lightning
Spirit Summoning. Ian quickly made up his mind.
‘Hmm, I need to spend 500 Contribution points.’
Ian picked up the ‘Summoning Lightning Spirit’ skill book and started to go through it.
He soon also found a good Attack Skill.
[Lightning Spheres]
Category: Active Skill
Skill Level: Lv. 0
Skill Rank: Hero
Proficiency: 0%
Usage: 15 Spirit Magic
Cooldown Ti: 1 minute
Creates spheres of lightning in both hands by summoning the Lightning Spirit.
Throw the spheres at the enemy and they will inflict 250% of the used Summoning Magic. Then, they
will divide into four and start bouncing in different directions. If the sphere then his sothing, like an
enemy or sothing nearby it will start bouncing again and will disappear after 5 seconds.
The enemy who is hit by the spheres will be on ‘Paralyzed’ mode for 20 seconds with a 15% of
probability.
Required condition of learning: It can be learned only after learning the passive skill ‘Summoning
Lightning Spirit’.
Required activation condition: It can be activated after the Lightning Spirit has been summoned.
When ‘Paralyzed’ mode is activated, the skill’s cooldown ti is reset.
…
The skill’s Attack Force itself was lower than other Hero rank Attack skills’, however, Ian liked the
Lightning Spheres the most.
‘Its Attack Force isn’t enough, but it isn’t my style to fight by mainly relying on Attack Force, so…’
He thought the skill would be very useful because it could inflict damage to multiple enemies and set
them on ‘Paralyzed’ mode.
Additionally, if he got lucky and the ‘Paralyzed’ mode, which had a 15% probability of activating, was
repeatedly activated, the skill’s cooldown ti would be reset. He then could use the skill many tis.
‘If I hit many enemies simultaneously, would I be able to keep using the skill?’
If he hit many enemies, at least one of them should activate the ‘Paralyzed’ effect.
If he got lucky and ‘Paralyzed’ mode was repeatedly activated, he would be able to use the skill 6
tis in a row.
He couldn’t be sure, because he didn’t use that yet, but it definitely looked like a great skill.
‘It’s worth the Contribution points.’
The skill was worth 1200 Contribution points.
However, Ian picked it up without hesitating.
Ian went out with the two skill books. The NPC at the entrance ca to him, smiling, “Oh, have you
finished, Ian?”
“Yes. I want these two.”
Ian gave her the skill books. The NPC looked at them for a while and said, “Hmm, let’s see. They are
worth 1700 Contribution points in total.”
Ian nodded, “Okay, I will use that.”
“You have chosen really good skills. Is there anything you want more?”
Ian wanted to save the 3300 Contribution he had left, so he had no more business there, “No, I will
co back later.”
“Okay. Please co back!”
Ian traded the 1700 Contribution points for two skill books and left the Tower of Summoners.
Then he imdiately used the books to learn both skills.
You used a skill book to learn ‘Summoning Lightning Spirit’ skill.You used a skill book to learn ‘Lightning Spheres’ skill.
With those two ssages, a little spark ford in front of Ian’s eyes.
“Uh? What’s this?”
Ian looked with interest while a yellow spark gathered.
The spark beca bigger and bigger until it ford a shape.
And…
You summoned Lightning Spirit for the first ti. You can give the Spirit a na.
Ian stared at the Lightning Spirit.
It was very cute. It looked a lot like a little sparrow.
“Umm… your na is…”
Ian tried to think of a na, but the summoned Spirit started to fly around and sing.
Chirp- Chirp-
At that mont, its na was decided.
“Chirpy, I should na you Chirpy.”
Ian liked nas that were simple and easy to say.
Therefore, he nad the Spirit after the sound it made.
Lightning Spirit’s na is Chirpy.
Ian was satisfied with his own naming sense. He then called Chirpy.
“Chirpy, co here.”
He stretched out his hand. The yellow, small bird that had been flying around aimlessly quickly ca
and sat on Ian’s hand.
Chirp- Chirp-
Chirpy made sounds that were different from ordinary baby birds’, probably because of its sparks.
‘Is it saying zip- zip? Is it really a Lightning Spirit?’
Chirpy made a sound that was between a bird’s singing and lightning sparking. Ian smiled, “He
doesn’t require the Leadership stat.'”
That was what he liked the most.
Chirpy looked up at him with its twinkling eyes. Ian checked its information.
[Chirpy (Lightning Spirit)]
Spirit Power: 0/1000
Elent: Lightning
Rank: Low
Duration Ti when summoned: 375 minutes (cooldown ti to re-summoning: 500 minutes)
It will evolve into a high rank Spirit when its Spirit Power reaches Max.
(Spirit Power increases when using Summoning Magic of Lightning elent.)
The higher the Summoner’s Summoning Magic is, the longer the Duration Ti of the Spirit becos.
…
The information was quite simple.
Ian smiled sourly, ‘Then, he is no good in battles…’
Chirpy seed to be useless in battles.
He hadn’t expected much because Chirpy was so small and cute. Still, he felt a little bitter.
‘No wonder he doesn’t require the Leadership stat… then Chirpy is just needed to use the
Summoning Magic of Lightning elent.’
It was disappointing, but it was also promising.
Chirpy would evolve into a high rank Spirit when its Spirit Power reaches Max, so no one knew what
kind of abilities it would get in the future.
‘Starting with a strong one is all good, but the true fun lies in raising a weak one.’
Ian thought positively like that and moved, “Now, shall I go to et the Emperor?”
Ian’s feet were light as he left the Square to et the Emperor.
The Imperial Palace wasn’t far from Flinor Square.
