"I choose the Origin Path."Golden decided to make the great bet, the other Paths were safer, but with them, he would limit himself in some way. On the other hand, the Origin Path was dangerous, and Golden knew nothing about it, but it showed danger and difficulty as the main bad points.Golden didn't believe that the system will offer some trash Path. He made a bet for the Origin Path because he already needed to conceal the system, and his Path for training had been difficult from the start.Golden hoped that the Origin Path, besides being the most difficult and dangerous, would also be the most powerful.And even if the Origin Path didn't meet Golden's expectations, being at least something from the system, Golden was sure that it would be a good Path.[Since the user has chosen the Origin Path, the user will obtain some information about it. If, after hearing it, the user regrets the decision, then the user can change the Origin Path for one of the other Paths in exchange for not
[Main Chain Quest: Origin Path Rank 1.]That was the header the system showed for Golden's first Main Chain Quest, and the main objective of this Main chain Quest was to reach Rank 1 Novice in the Origin Path.As for the first sub-quest, it was something Golden didn't expect.[Sub-quest: Become a disciple of a Sword's Master. Reward: Sword Innate Talent (the grade is variable, the more powerful the master, the better the grade).]Golden didn't understand the reasons for the first sub-quest as he never showed any interest in the sword. If the requirement for the Origin Path was training with a weapon, he was already training archery.[The system determined that among all weapons, the sword is the one with more benefits for the user to reach the requirements for the Origin Path. Training with the sword would help to increase Strength, Agility, Vitality, and Dexterity.]Indeed, those were all stats that Golden needed to improve. But he still didn't understand why the reward would be of a
[Sub-quest finished. Reward obtained: Sword Innate Talent: Perfect Grade.]Golden was stunned as he obtained the highest reward. The system determined that Swordmad was the best master for Golden, which seemed a big coincidence since both were in the same clan, so Golden doubted again if it was really a coincidence or the system knew about Swordmad beforehand.Golden opened the Innate Talent Menu to check his new Innate Talent.[Sword Innate Talent: Perfect grade. The best affinity for Swordsmanship. Grants the user the Passive Skill: Sword Mastery.]As far as Golden knew, there were three types of skills: Battle Skills, Magic Skills, also known as Spells, and Passive Skills. To train the first two, it was indispensable to start practicing a Path, while for the third, it didn't matter, but obtaining a Passive Skill was more about luck than any other thing.Passive Skills didn't need to be activated, and training them could be done with the passing of time. The books said that sometime
Usually, after Golden finished the class, Swordmad gave him some advice, and he returned to his room. However, the same day Golden finished the fourth Dynamic Quest, Swordmad said something else."You have been training with me for some time, in the next month's Clan's Gathering, you shall do an exhibition battle and show your progress to everyone."The Clan's Gathering was something that happened once per year, and it was normal for some youngsters to show their abilities in exhibition battles. However, Golden didn't expect that Swordmad wanted him to show off."All right, I won't disappoint you, master."Golden didn't have any reason to refuse because he also wanted to test himself in a battle against others.He continued training until the day of the Clan's Gathering, but his stats and skills remained the same.The day of the Clan's Gathering, Golden was in a very good mood, but it wasn't because of the exhibition battle but was because his big sister would come back to attend the
Golden opened his eyes confused, his memories were fuzzy and his body heavy."You finally awakened, I already thought that you would remain unconscious forever."That was Swordmad's voice, who was beside Golden's bed, sat in a chair."Stop. You look confused. Clear your mind, or even if I explain to you what happened, you won't understand."Golden stopped talking and tried to recall what had happened to him."I went to the Clan's Gathering and won the exhibition battle against Blackor..."Until that moment, he recalled clearly."After that... something weird happened... everyone fell into an illusion... but I wasn't affected... Someone wanted to kill my sister... and I tried to save her...""But I failed... and received a hit in the chest... I died.""To be more exacts, you almost died, you are still alive and completely healed since a long time ago, but you remained unconscious until now."Golden was trying to think more quickly, but his mind wasn't completely clear."Then... for how
[Absolute Protection: Creates a 5-meter field that lasts for 5 seconds. Nothing can interfere with the inside of the field until it disappears. This Legacy Skill can only be used once per month. It doesn't use the user's energy.]"This skill is a real Absolute Protection."Absolute Protection could protect Golden and everything around him from any damage. Even though it only lasted for five seconds and could only be used once per month, if Golden were again in the same situation as in the Clan's Gathering, at least, he would be able to protect himself and his sister for five seconds.If he had lasted five seconds in the Clan Gathering, Swordmad would have been able to save him and Ange, so Golden wouldn't have needed to receive the hit in the place of his sister."Can I improve this Legacy Skill?"That was something very important. If the area and duration could increase, then it would be awesome.[The Legacy Skill is a special type of skill that directly use the Laws of the world to
Inside the Beast Trial, Golden didn't feel like he was inside the Penny clan anymore. He felt like if he was in a wild forest.Golden cautiously walked as he started to look for some edible herbs or fruits and some source of fresh water.When facing the Beast Trial, the beasts weren't the only factor to consider, one needed to survive.Golden had a lot of knowledge about herbs and fruits obtained from books, so he didn't fear eating something poisonous, which was something that ended the lives of many participants before him. The quickest ones to die were always those who died because of poison, not from beasts.Furthermore, Golden had the system to back up the information he remembered. He couldn't make a mistake in remembering something wrong as the system records were perfect.There were a lot of edible herbs and fruits in the forest, which relieved Golden a lot. He could differentiate what he could eat from what he couldn't, but he would be in dire straits if he couldn't find anyt
Yale carefully proceeded while hunting 1-star beasts. He didn't want to be overconfident and enrage many at the same time.Yale was very efficient while hunting. It was difficult to believe that he didn't have any experience because although his traps were ineffective, his arrows were deadly because they hit the weak points of the beasts.A few days after starting his hunting, his Agility points reached nine. However, even though reaching nine points was difficult, the true challenge was reaching ten.The Beast Trial didn't disappoint Yale. In a month since starting the Beast Trial, due to his constant use of archery, his Archer's Senses reached level three, and Stealth reached level two.That was very good, and after a few more days, Yale finally reached ten points in Dexterity, reaching perfection in all the mind stats, and upgrading his Magical Talent to high grade.Until that moment, the requirements to upgrade the Magical Talent had been progressive, but when Yale tried to know h
