Kirou was currently in his wolf form walking up to the village head of Elderwood Village, Old Wolf. He was originally planning to do this before he logged out in the morning but he had some things to think about that took the whole day. The reason he was so out of it while working was due to his discovery of a certain item equipped on him that shouldn't even exist in the game. That isn't a correct statement as the item in question shouldn't even exist in this world. The item in question was a certain mysterious bead. The mysterious bead took up one of his accessory slots and he couldn't check its details. What was even weirder was that whenever he tried to unequip the bead, he kept getting the following message; [System Message: Item is soul-bound and cannot be unequipped.] This message kept bugging Kirou as he tried removing the bead. He had no idea how the bead followed him into the game or became

Kirou was currently meditating under a tree. He had just finished fighting a dozen swamp crocodiles and needed to rest to recover his health. At least, that's how it looked from the perspective of the party trying to surround him. Kirou had noticed that party following his trail long before they did, a by-product of his constant use of shadow teleportation. In fact, he had even overheard their conversation due to the 'Keen Senses' trait that he has that is always active when he's outside of the village. At the moment he was pretending to rest to see just how they planned to achieve their goal. He was acutely aware of the lycan thief trying to get behind him. In his eyes, the stealth skill that the thief was too good for him. While the skill itself was good, the user was doing a piss poor job of utilizing it. Even without his keen senses active or the intuition he's honed from years of fighting other assassins, he could s

Staring back at the boss monster in front of him, Kirou didn't back down but grew excited instead. A monster that could cause the hairs on his skin to rise was something he hadn't experienced fight in this game yet. Kirou didn't plan to back down after finding this beast but he didn't immediately attack it. So far the creature itself hasn't attacked Kirou and that told Kirou he hadn't drawn its ire just yet. Kirou and his clones retreated a few meters from the beast and the beast gave Kirou a wary look before closing its eyes once again. Once Kirou was sure his actions wouldn't cause the beast to rush him instantly, he looked inside his inventory. After searching through all the materials he's found, he found what he was looking for and took them out. What he took out was a set of leather armor he bought from Elderwood Village. He wanted to use it as a model for the armor he would later create but the boss monster in front of him gave him the feeling that he wou

Kirou was currently in Village Tailor Sam's cottage. After returning from the swampland more than twenty minutes ago, he has been in the cottage, sorting the items in his inventory. He had hunted so many monsters and gotten so many materials that he currently needed to organize them before he could even start figuring out where to start. After another five minutes of organizing, Kirou was finally able to finish sorting his items. Taking a look back at the amount in his storage, Kirou couldn't help the wry smile forming on his lips. He had to spend so much time going through so many items all because he went overboard with his hunting. Shaking his head free of those thoughts, Kirou turned to face Tailor Sam who was patiently waiting for him from the moment he entered the cottage. Unlike the other areas in the village where players normally commute, the tailor shop rarely saw traffic after players got to a certain level. This was because they could now receive arm

Kirou was currently in his human form, walking along the trail going west from Elderwood Village. His eyebrows were currently furrowed as he was deep in thought. He's been outside of the village for roughly half an hour now, and he could feel a few sets of eyes on him. He was sure those eyes have been on him since he left town but he ignored it since he attributed it to everyone being curious about his different set of armor. Now that half an hour has passed and he could still feel a few sets of eyes on him, Kirou decided to take care of it before he entered a truly dangerous situation. That and he found it annoying to have someone watching his every move. Kirou walked off the main road and entered the forest. During his trip, he made sure to remove a set of chains from his inventory and equipped it, with it wrapping around one of his arms. After walking for another few minutes, Kirou finally walked to the center of an open area before he tu
