Translator: HunterW Editor: RED Human! Kill! Kill! Human! Sorry, maybe in your next life you can . I barely gave a glance at the Trolls charging at me and struck each one of them down . They fought back hard, being monsters of a high-grade dungeon, but fell nonetheless . ==[You have gained a level . ]== Yes! Finally . As soon as the last Troll Warrior fell, the message I was waiting for appeared . I finally reached it! Open Stats Menu! ==[Name: Lee Jiwon Level: 650 Death Count: 0 Title: Earths First Deva HP: 8,815,700/8,815,700 MP: 347,800/347,800 Strength: 19,934 + 1,887 Agility: 13,951 Vitality: 14,051 Willpower: 3,418 Intelligence: 3,148 Unassigned Stat Points: 200 + 126 Fatigue: 0 Special Effects: Luck Boost (X+1), immune to all Status effects, Dungeon Seeker 14 points Physical Attack: 73,080 Physical Defense: 29,197 Magical Attack: 10,994 Magical Defense: 16,884]== Hehehehe . It always happened whenever I looked at my own Stats Menu, but I couldnt help laugh . I was just doing too well . I could confidently say that I was the top 0 . 1% of the entire world . Ah, right . This isnt the important one . I invested all unassigned points into STR once again . Open Skill Menu . ==[Skill Menu Unassigned Skill Points: 5 Passive skills: 2 Unrivaled (1/1) (First Unrivaled) Selfish Prick (1/1) (Stupid Selfish Prick) Active skills: 3 Warriors Brave Spirit (1/3) Mana Conversion (2/1) Judges Gavel (1/3) Additional skills: 4 Blink 1 (Azazels Lightning Boots) Blink 2 (King-Emperors Commitment) Altered Equality (Shaman Kos Selfishness) Howl of the Wolf (Clan Badge – Werewolf)]== . I didnt laugh this time as I looked through my Skill Menu . I was just in awe at the skills I had . I had Mana Conversion past its max level, and my four additional skills didnt require a single skill point, yet they were all very powerful and very valuable skills . I had never had an additional skill in my past life . I also still couldnt see the Absolute Destruction after it was eaten up by Shaman Ko . Well, then again, Absolute Destruction wasnt exactly a skill and more of a trait . And… I have no idea what Predation is supposed to be since I havent even seen it at all . Either way, all of my skills really were second to none . Meh . It doesnt matter . I think five skill points should be enough to open the random chest now . If I could, I would have saved up to like ten skill points before opening the chest . The more I had, the better skills I could learn, after all . I moved to a place where there were no Trolls around and took out the Random Skill Chest from my inventory . Please! I beg you . I dont need a skill like Laguss Psychokinesis . Just give me something I can use! I nervously placed my right hand on the chests clasp and was about to open it when I felt a strange feeling . It wasnt a hostile feeling and there werent any Trolls around me . It was a feeling that was telling me that I was about to make a very bad decision . The more skill points required, the better the skill? I said to myself . That was how it was supposed to be when it came to skills . Thats what I believed now and in the past . But…I know of an exception to that rule; Shaman Kos Selfish Prick . No matter how you looked at it, Selfish Prick was an amazing skill . The stat points I got from it were over 2000, it got me Altered Equality and actually saved me from being eaten by the Duke . But all it needed was a single skill point . I reread the Random Skill Chests description . ==[… However, the yielded skill will depend on the amount of skill points the person opening the chest has available . If the person opening this chest only has 1 skill point available, the yielded skill may be a skill that only requires 0 or 1 skill point . ]== I didnt realize it until now about how the description was very specific on the 0 points part . Is there even a skill that doesnt require skill points? From what I knew, there werent any . Besides, skills were supposed to require at least one point to learn, not including item skills like Blink . 0 points…0 points, huh? Once I realized the 0 points part, it was all I could think about . It could also be a complete fluke and whatever skills that didnt require skill points could really just be useless and I would have wasted not only five skill points but a damn Rank 9 Random Skill Chest . But I just couldnt stop thinking about it . Shit! If only I hadnt noticed it, I wouldnt be agonizing over this . I wouldnt end up blaming my luck for opening the chest and getting some crap skill and could at least get a decent skill with my five skill points . But something at the back of my head just kept telling me that if I didnt do it, I would regret it . What the hell is wrong with this random chest and the Dark Crystal? I went to New York, not Las Vegas! Both items I received from getting involved with Shire Guild were like a high roller table in Vegas . The chest wanted me to bet on 0 and the Crystal wanted me to bet on 1 . Gah! I stood straight up . No matter how many times I was going to think about it, there was only one answer . I was going to have to gamble one way or the other . If there was a chance I was going to hit the jackpot with either of these items, I wasnt going to spend my life wondering what would have happened if I had bet on them . I sprinted for the dungeon entrance, ignoring every single horde of Trolls in my way . --- Seouls Store 72… As soon as I left the Troll Dungeon, I headed straight for London, barely glancing at the Werewolves who greeted me as I sprinted by . Once I got to London, I headed straight for the Teleporter there and warped to Seoul . I put my hat and sunglasses on and went straight up to the skill store, to use all five of my skill points . I had already picked out the skills I wanted to learn as I was leaving the dungeon . Welcome . Show me your skills . Of course . Once the buy menu came up, I searched up the skills I wanted . ==[Spear Mastery (3/3), (Passive) Applies additional benefits when using a spear . Cannot receive these benefits when using a different type of weapon . Learning requirements: none Level 1: Increase equipped spears ATT by 1%, ATT speed by 1%, CRIT rate by 1%, CRIT damage by 30% . Level 2: Increase equipped spears ATT by 2%, ATT speed by 2%, CRIT rate by 2%, CRIT damage by 60% . Level 3: Increase equipped spears ATT by 3%, ATT speed by 3%, CRIT rate by 3%, CRIT damage by 90%, increase chance to ignore enemy DEF by 1% . Skill Points required: 1 Golden rings required: 10,000]== This was the most basic skill I should have learned . Everyone should be learning weapon mastery skills . Its actual effectiveness wasnt exactly that great but it was cheap to learn . I really should have learned it sooner . A level 3 Spear Mastery skill was definitely good to have . Its easy to level up as well since it gains EXP every time I attack with my spear . Learn . Spear Mastery costs 10,000 golden rings to learn . With your 20% VIP discount, your total comes out to 8,000 golden rings . I paid the clerk and searched up the next skill . ==[Fissure (3/3), (Active) Pierce the ground in front of you strongly with your spear . This skill splits the ground in front of you for ten meters . The shock of the attack damages enemies in its range . (This skills range can increase depending on the users STR . ) Learning requirements: STR 6500, INT 1500 Level 1: 600 second cooldown . Inflicts 100% of users ATT in addition to skills base damage upon enemies in range . Movement speed of enemies in skill range is decreased by 30% . Level 2: 600 second cooldown . Inflicts 125% of users ATT in addition to skills base damage upon enemies in range . Movement speed of enemies in skill range is decreased by 40% . Level 3: 600 second cooldown . Inflicts 150% of users ATT in addition to skills base damage upon enemies in range . Movement speed of enemies in skill range is decreased by 50% . Skill points required: 3 Golden rings required: 6,507,750]== -This one is really good, too . - I didnt know much about melee skills, as I was a Fire Mage in the past . This skill I had heard a lot about, though, in that it was good AoE skill for fighter classes . -Still, it only does 150% more damage at level 3 . - Judges Gavel did 500% more damage at level 3, had a base damage of 100,000, and increased CRIT damage by 1000%, even though it required 3 skill points, as well . -Then again, its a special skill that gave me a thousand extra Stat points for being the first to learn it . - I decided to learn it regardless, to finally have an AoE skill under my belt . 100% of my ATT was nothing to scoff at, after all . With your 20% VIP discount, your total comes out to 5,206,200 golden rings . I had one skill point left . -I guess I should learn that one then . - ==[Increase CRIT Rate (3/3), (Passive) Increases your CRIT Rate . Learning requirements: none Level 1: Increase CRIT rate by 1% Level 2: Increase CRIT rate by 3% Level 3: Increase CRIT rate by 5% Skill points required: 1 Golden rings required: 37,009,980 golden rings . ]== I didnt and couldnt learn this skill in the past because of its price tag . -I guess this is the best option right now . - The best thing I had going for me and my normal attacks was my CRIT rate and CRIT damage . I more or less got three critical hits for every ten attacks . In other words, I got about one critical hit for every three attacks and most of my enemies couldnt last against three or four attacks . That was why I decided to learn this skill, so that I could get one critical hit for every two attacks . Ill learn this skill . Increase CRIT Rate costs 37,009,980 golden rings . With your 20% VIP discount, your total is now 29,607,984 golden rings . Man, was it expensive, even with the 20% discount . It was no wonder I couldnt learn it in my past life . I paid the clerk, left the Store and headed for Guryong Mountain, the mountain I went to when I assembled Azazels Boots . --- Halfway up Guryong Mountain… Im beginning to think that this is way better . I was satisfied that I finally got to learn at least a few of the skills I wanted to learn after pushing it back so many times . I really should have learned them earlier, at least to level them up some . Man, I was stupid . I didnt need to save that many skill points . Theres no such thing as too many skills, I chastised myself . Well, whatever . Whats done is done . At least I know better now . I took out the Random Skill Chest and the Dark Crystal from my inventory . I guess I have you to thank for helping me come to my senses . I raised the chest to eye level . It seemed to shine a darker red than the Dark Crystal . Which one should I use first? The only thing different between the two was what I was betting on; 0 and 1 . I guess Ill start with the Rank 8 . The Random Chest had the potential to be bigger jackpot of the two, so I decided to save it for last . I unequipped the King-Emperors Commitment and read through its description . I whistled in amazement . Having seven effects on a single item was just not right . It shouldnt exist at all . If I could get it to raise Mana Conversions level again, it would be at level 3… I only wanted one thing from it . I raised the Dark Crystal over the earrings . I believe in you, 1% . This is the exact spot I assembled the impossible Azazels Boots . Then again, I did already know the formula back then . Either way, I really didnt want the other effect . I didnt have any Dark magic to use . I gripped the Crystal hard, crushing it into dust, and the powder was absorbed by the King-Emperors Commitment .
