Chapter 71: [Extras!]
Have you ever played a game? Of course you have. Oftentimes when you play an RPG game, you can find an [Extra] content within the main menu that you can use to find some special content.
In a reward-based game, some games give you extra rewards based on how many [Achievements] you complete.
In a story mode game with multiple endings, often you will find something like [Hall of Fame] that gives you extra rewards based on the ending you reach.
In a fighting game that is too complex, there is often a [Practice] option that will allow you to practice movements so that you get accustomed to the fighting styles.
In an open world multiplayer game, oftentimes they give you a [Personal Space] where you can use points or something similar to customize your own space.
[Extras] contained something like that. Though because this game was a MMORPG, the game’s extras were a bit special.
‘Let’s check the [Achievements]’ I thought as I looked through the [Extras] and found more than 10,000 achievements.
A few simpler one were like.
[Run!]
[Run 10 Kilometers (0/10)!]
[Reward: +0.1% Stamina!]
[Kill 1000 Monsters (0/1000)!]
[Rewards: +0.1% Attack Power!]
A few hard ones were like
[True God Killer!]
[Kill 7 True Gods (0/7)!]
[Reward: +25% Attack against all heavenly beings!]
[The Messiah of Silver Elves!]
[Revive the dead tribe of Silver Elves!]
[Reward: +10% Mana Recovery in forest!]
“Sad that it doesn’t count anything before this point. But since we unlocked this early, I guess it’s all not too bad,” I thought as I sat on the nearby stool before moving to the next option.
[Hall of Fame!]
[You haven’t reached any endings yet!]
‘I don’t plan to restart and reach another end, you know?’ I sighed as I moved to the next. The rewards of [Hall of Fame!] are bound to be insane, but too bad I can’t get it.
Next is [Freestyle!]
Clicking on the button, the time froze for a second before the area changed into a white space. It seemed like a never ending space, and I stood at the center of it.
A screen appeared in front of me, giving me a bunch of options.
[Choose a Weapon!]
[Silver dagger!]
[Blades of Liberty!]
[Wolfbane Dagger!]
“Seems like I could only use those weapons that I had used before,” I thought as I picked up [Wolfbane Dagger!] since it was the one that I had been using for now.
It gave me the option to choose other equipment like my [Ring of Inversion!] and [Boots of Eagledrew!], which I choose for now.
[Choose the number of partners!]
[-]
A blank number appeared in front of me as I looked at that option. Since we were just trying this thing, I went with [5].
[Choose 5 Partners to Practice with]
Once again, it allowed me to choose a number of people.. There were Oriel and Evelyn. Even Ameliana and Amir were there as well.
‘Seems like everyone that I had fought will be appearing here,’ I thought as I noticed that Gray wasn’t there. Perhaps it was because I have never seen him fighting? Seems like we need to research a bit more.
To check the flexibility of the system, I chose 5 Orials at once.
And then the system asked me to set percent of power each Oriel can exert,, which I set at 5%, 10%, 15%, 20% and 25% for starters.
5 Oriel appeared in front of me as they stood there like rag dolls. The system message appeared again, asking if I wanted to start the practice, but I didn’t immediately press the [Yes] button.
First, I moved around, poked them a bit and found that they were frozen in time. Meaning, three bodies, inducing their hairs, were harder than rock. I couldn’t even make a dent in it even after applying a lot of pressure.
“Well. Let’s check the efficiency of the [Freestyle],” I muttered as I used [One Way Out!] before starting the practice.
-Whoosh!
All 5 of them attacked me at once in coordination, but since my speed was heightened and their power was limited, I could see them in slow motion.
Only the fastest one, with 25% power, was somewhat matching my speed. Though looking at him almost reaching me, made me realize how powerful Oriel really was.
‘To be able to match my speed when I am reaching this high and he is only one-fourth of his power,’ I looked at him before dodging his attack before slashing my dagger at him.
-Clank
The dagger struck against his neck, creating a strange metallic sound as I saw his neck turning into gold. Perhaps, even now, I was underestimating him?
And then I positioned myself towards the slowest and the weakest Oriel and enforcing my dagger with Dark Mana
-Slash!
I attacked his neck again. This time, even though there was a lot of resistance, I was able to slash his neck, killing him in one blow.
The other Orials repositioned themselves, with two strong in front of the 2 weaker ones. And then as they moved towards me at a rapid speed,
[Frenzy!]
I increased my speed again as I reached behind the four of them, towards the weakest one.
-Slash!
Using the same technique from before, but a little faster than last time, I killed the 10% power Orial before.
[Super Strength!]
-Slash!
Killing the 15% Orial as well.
The Two Orials took a forward dash, trying to make use of the chance they got at me, before they reached closer to me.
[Battle Zone!]
-Slash x 2
And then, I killed the last 2 as I saw them vanishing into thin air.
[Practice Complete!]
It was complete before I saw the starting options appearing again, asking me about the weapons, etc. Though since I already figured out the use of it, I decided to check thee [Personal space] for now before returning to the city.
And thus I got out of the [Freestyle] area and looked at the [Personal Space!]
