As it was sothing that no one had foreseen, Seols viewers were all shocked.
- Huh? Seriously?
- I knew that he was going to reach 1,000,000 Points soon but was he really the first one?
- Deduction) Normally you have to join a raid party or do Party Adventures to reach 1,000,000 Points but doing that would take a long, long ti.
- FACTS.
- OMG He must be the strongest person!!
- But you also have to consider that most people could get close to 1,000,000 Points after their long-term Adventure ends.
- Snowman has 1.3 mil points though.
- Who knows? Maybe theyll surpass him?
- Why are you so pessimistic?
- Im just trying to lower my expectations! Having too many expectations would lead to disappointnt!
- Ah, okay.
Seol expected that he would surpass 1,000,000 Adventure Points after the Adventure was over.
And in truth, he was hoping for a reward for surpassing 1,000,000 Points like how lovers exchange gifts on their 100th day dating.
But still, Im the first person to get it?
Since Adventure Points was a newly introduced system, Seol didnt know that there was an achievent like this. And as such, he also didnt know about the titles effects.
Seol lowered his expectations as much as he could and checked his new title.
[[Title: Affluent]
Related Achievent: A Step on First Snow (Adventure: N/A)
Bonus Effect: Gain additional skill points for your Adventure rewards.]
It was short but aningful.
Oh my god
There were quite a few systems in place in Pandea to maintain the balance.
One such system was the level system.
If two people went on an equal number of Adventures, their levels would also be identical.
Seol, through eight Adventures, had reached level 11. And this was also the case for the other players as well.
But if you simply chose shorter Adventures to speedrun through them to gain levels faster, you would ruin the character.
Through leveling up, you would unlock a few important Adventures and increase your stats a bit, but that was all.
Eventually, players realized that going on Adventures with only leveling up in mind was incorrect.
Not only did your stats have to be high, but your equipnt played a huge role too. Titles, conquests, achievents, etc. were also important.
But the most important thing, along with stats, were the skills you had and their proficiencies.
With his past knowledge, Seol quickly realized that this title, a title which he received for the first ti, would be instruntal in snowballing his strength to greater heights.
If I get additional skill points with each Adventure, my skills proficiencies would increase exponentially.
Since Seol could amass additional skill points in the early ga, as long as he continuously built them up, the skill points he accumulated would create a massive gap between him and everyone else.
Still, this made it really worth it to be so busy early on.
- This is super good, but I can accept it.
- Reaching a million points at this stage = was super busy
- I wonder what kind of butterfly effect these additional points will bring
- I doubt even ChatGPT would know.
It was just a relief that I was the one to get this title. It could have been dangerous if soone else got this first.
If another player had received this title instead of Seol, they might have even been able to catch up to Seol soday.
He wasnt working this hard simply because he wanted to be ahead of other people, but having soone catch up to him also ant that he wasnt reaching the highest potential that he could be. Therefore, Seol didnt plan on allowing anyone to catch up.
Masters laughing? said Karen.
Leave him alone. He does that from ti to ti. Just act like you didnt see anything, said Jamad.
Now that soone chatty entered the Shadow Space, it was filled with noise.
Seol then gave them a request.
Please just stay quiet once were in the city.
Of course.
I was always good at reading the room. Unlike that elf.
Woah, a troll who knows how to read the room?! Thats kind of romantic.
Urgh Please get stronger faster so you can expand the Shadow Space. Get away from that elf.
Whats wrong? I was just starting to like this cramped area. Were neighbors after all, no?
We. Are. Not. Neighbors!
Seol grimaced and checked the other ssages.
[Adventurer Points Leaderboard
1. Private (1,312,300)
2. Firefly (500,020)
3. ILikeBeingAlone (472,160)
4. Daerim-DongHamFist (450,080)
5. AttackonDwarf (391,810)]
The rankings have changed.
The rankings were still mostly filled with people who were on the leaderboards last ti, and there was nothing really of interest other than the fact that the people who were ranked 2nd and 3rd last ti had dropped down to 4th and 5th.
It seems like 4th place and 5th place are on a longer Adventure but whos ILikeBeingAlone?
There was soone new on the rankings.
Rank 3, ILikeBeingAlone.
Is it Mira? Or soone else? Well, regardless
Since the points gap that Seol built up couldnt be overco with just an Adventure or two, he didnt put them into mory.
- Overwhelming!
- Woah He really does have a crazy amount of points.
- If he wants to walk around with a na tag that just says Private, I could respect it.
- I bet hed get a lot of dates if he did that.
[You begin your Rest.]
[Your Key Location Rest is starting.]
[Break 4. Nobira, the Ruins City.]
[Break 4. Nobira, the Ruins City
In The World of Eternity, Nobira the Ruins City is located in South Pandea.
A city where many treasures and commodities excavated from ruins co and go because of its adjacency to the Great Forest. It also has one of the bigger black markets and large auction houses in the South.
Because sothing chaotic has happened recently near here, the residents of the city are anxious
Adventurers must take plenty of rest and training here, or at another rest location, before preparing for the next Adventure.
Objective: Rest and maintenance.
You will be tired upon failure.
Remaining Ti: [About 30 days]]
Sothing chaotic?
The contents of the Rest changed very slightly from before.
What was that chaotic thing? Why was it making the residents anxious?
Seol kept that in the back of his head as he entered the city.
* * *
Buy that.
Shh.
Woah Are they all people?
Could you please be quiet?
Maybe Ill think about it if you buy clothes first?
Youre doing this on purpose, arent you?
Clothes. Clothes. Clothes. Clothes.
- I think Im going to lose it. I think Im going to lose it.
- When is Karuna coming back
- Just buy her clothes, Snowman
Because Karen, who was in his Shadow Space, kept attracting the attention of other people, Seol decided to head to the smithy first.
Where are you going? asked Karen.
I thought you wanted to buy you clothes?
I wanted everyday clothes. Are you seriously going to make wear so heavy armor around, everywhere I go?
Karuna did it fine though
He probably was just holding his tongue! When Karuna cos back, I want you to buy him everyday clothes too!
Sotis, when he ca back here, Karuna would let out a sigh. Well, it was obvious why he was doing that though, interjected Jamad.
You heard that too, right? And now that you have , you dont need to worry about people finding out that were shadows.
Because of Haze?
Yeah, its a type of illusion magic but theres no way ordinary people would find out.
Seol also agreed with that.
It really was inconspicuous. Was it also because of the Disguise Talent?
A skill like that that could be used in the day-to-day was infinitely more useful than being passed on a skill that was awkward to use.
Though it wasnt like she had any awkward skills in the first place.
I can just unseal her sealed skills next ti, and wait, why does she have a talent in disguising?
Seol could hear an answer from the Shadow Space.
You just thought of sothing weird, didnt you?
No. I was just thinking about why you were passed on Haze.
Its probably because I originally did a lot of those kinds of missions. Things like disguising myself, infiltrating, stuff like that. One ti never mind.
The way she stopped herself at the end showed that she was recalling old mories.
Anyway, lets go there.
Seol, at Karens request, went into a clothing store and grabbed the dress that Karen pointed out. It was a red dress that won from a renowned, noble house would wear.
Dont you think its too flashy?
Im going to be the one wearing it so who cares? Dont tell is it too expensive for you?
Its not, I just dont like standing out
I stand out anyway. Do you see anyone around here whos an elf?
Thats true.
- I an, shes not wrong LMFAO
- So she planned on standing out from the start!!!
- The summoner was persuaded.
- Snowman has now beco her wallet.
After purchasing the clothes, Seol went to a place where there were not too many people and put the clothes into his Shadow Space.
[You have equipped Karen, the Twin Knight, with Red Silk Dress.]
What a fuss.
Could you be quiet for a second, troll?
Yeah, yeah.
Jamad gave a half-hearted response, Seol could practically see the image of Jamad raising his hands in response in his head. After a few minutes, Karen spoke again.
Oho Its not bad.
What do you think? It looks good, right? Does it look good to a troll too?
Its just whatever in my eyes but humans could have a different opinion.
Its my fault for asking a troll. Why did I think youd have an eye for beauty?
Now that I take another look, it looks worse.
Hey!
Hmph!
Seol ignored their childish conversation and looked at the sky.
It was calm.
Despite the ominous ssage in the interface, nothing seed off.
But luckily for Seol, he now had a way to gain information without using his gold.
I should et up with Kibo.
Kibo, the leader of the ruin hunters in Nobira, was practically Seols helper now, after all.
What are you looking at?
As Seol was thinking to himself, Karen interrupted his thoughts from behind.
Nothing mu
Seol turned around to look at Karen without a second thought but he was shocked by her appearance.
How is it?
It looks pretty good?
Well, I might be a shadow now but I still need to look a bit charming, you know?
- NodNodNodNodNodNodNodNodNodNodNod
- I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-It looks nice, for sure
- Wow
- I think I blinded myself from her beauty.
- Karen was this pretty?
- Bring back Montra! Bring back Montra! Bring back Montra! Bring back Montra! Bring back Montra! Bring back Montra!
- I plan on killing whoever brought down the Empire. That was my goal from the start, my only goal.
Karen looked exactly like how she looked before her death. She had fair skin that was accentuated by her red dress.
She was reborn into a perfect elf.
Still, her hair colors still the sa.
Despite having red hair in Karunas mories, her hair was gray.
Karen, noticing Seols eyes, shyly touched her hair.
I couldnt change this Alright, lets go. Where are we going?
Theres a place I planned to visit right away.
Alright.
She was eye-catching, not only because she was about as tall as Seol with a model-like figure, her gorgeous gray hair caught the attention of every Nobira resident as they passed by.
WhoWho is that?
Is it a troupe? I didnt hear any news about it though.
You shouldnt be so rude. Its obvious that shes a Lady of so noble house whos out for a walk.
Ah, I see. It must be quite the incredible house then look at her slave.
Yeah, definitely. Even her slave is dressed well.
- Slave?
- Is he talking about ?
- Fuck, its .
- Beep You have been demoted to slave. LOL
- Its fine, Snowman! All you have to do is dress up too!
- Being ugly isnt a cri!
- Honestly, hes more on the handso side Based on how you were so quick to call him ugly ans that you must be ugly, arent you? LMFAO
- I plead the 5th.
Seol was a bit upset but didnt say anything. It was because he noticed Karen enjoying and humming to herself.
The world really has changed. The buildings all look strange now.
Really?
Yeah, everythings new to . And then she continued, Except for . Im the only one whos the sa.
Seol didnt pry any further and continued moving.
Theres less and less people now. Why are we going sowhere so creepy?
Because the person were trying to et lives here.
Soone lives here? I dont sense any Ah! Are you talking about him over there?
Point!
At the end of Karens finger was a man who had his hands behind his back.
It was Hamun.
Youre back.
I apologize for coming to see you without notifying you, Hamun.
Thats alright. Good news always cos without warning. More importantly, the person you brought
Shes my ally.
Hamun instantly nodded at Seols response.
Youve made an incredible ally. I could feel her powerful presence akin to a strong sword.
Did you hear that? Did he just complint right now? Youre pretty good, human! I also get a good feeling from you!
As Karen jumped around, Hamun gave a smile.
Co in.
Seol and Karen followed Hamun into his house.
Since Hamun knew that Seol didnt drink tea, he quickly got straight to the point.
So the reason you ca here
Seol also was a person who didnt have much ti to waste.
Place.
He imdiately showed Hamun why he ca here.
By passing over an item.
Hm Youve brought another tricky problem.
I apologize.
No, not at all. Its just that this sword its simply destroyed to the point that you should be thankful that its still breathing.
The reason that Seol ca here was because of Karens destroyed Red Lotus Sword.
Then could I leave this sword to you?
Hamun inspected the sword for a long while before finally uttering
