Chapter 5: Me with Shin part 2
Chapter 5: Me with Shin part 2
I looked again at my profile. I found out there really was such a thing. I tried to think about my Inventory and a window popped up. Apparently, I just needed to think about anything here and it would happen.
My Inventory was like a honeycomb, it was full of blocks. Inside these blocks, I found my spear and I also saw some potions. I knew about these! Back in my kingdom, we used potions to heal or recharge MANA.
I skipped these potions as I didn't need to use them right now. I called forth the spear and felt something cold in my hands. I lifted my right hand and saw a spear. It was a good spear, its weight felt like a feather to me. I moved my hands to feel that it moved like an extension of my hand. It was an intoxicating feeling.
"Stop playing around, princess. You'll have enough time later to play around as you wish, but right now, let's go outside the village."
"You seem to know this place well, so you can lead the way, Shin. "
"Follow me."
I walked behind him. Although he was older than me, he was only a few centimeters taller. I knew that I was a tall slim girl, but he was a tall and muscular boy.
I felt hot looking at this muscular swordsman. After ten minutes walking, we finally exited the village gate. In front of the village gate, I saw a wide-open world with no limits at all. There were so many people here, that I couldn't even begin to count them.
"There are many people here."
"Don't use the word "People" here ever again. Use the word "Players "instead."
"Players? Ok, there are a lot of players here."
"Now listen carefully. You should have 10 free Ability Points. Assign them like this, 5 free AP to Vitality, 3 Points to Strength, and 2 Points to Agility."
"Why do I add points to Agility? It seems useless to me."
"Speed and Speed of Attack are very important factors to your skills. Monsters won't just stop for you to kill them! They keep moving at high speeds, so you need to match their speed. If you don't, you won't even be able to lay a single hit on them."
"How do I add these free APs?"
"Open your profile. Next to each stat you will find an add button. Think about adding the number of AP you desire. Then they will be added at once."
"Ok, I'll try!"
I tried as he suggested and it worked instantly. This cool Swordsman was also knowledgeable! He looked nave and clumsy from the outside, but he was actually very keen and patient.

He also knew I hid a secret and didn't ask about it. Did he also have secrets?
"Now let's kill some rabbits."
I looked at the horizon. There were huge armies of players attacking these miserable rabbits. I suddenly remembered those cool looking Mechas which I saw before at Almighty city. I asked in anticipation:
"Can I find Mechas here?"
"You mean those huge Mechas that are in the real world? Nope! Here, there are no Mechas."
"Why? There must be a class for Mecha warriors!"
"Actually, there isn't such a class."
"Then it must be a secret class."
"There is no such secret class here!"
"How do you know that? Onita told me before that there are many secret classes here."
I noticed a strange glimmer pass through his eyes. I felt him hesitate. This was weird! What was he hesitating about?
"Trust me, there is no such class or secret class like that. The only way for you to have your own Mecha here is to forge it yourself."
"Really?! Can I build one?"
"Sure. But you need to have a lifestyle class as a blacksmith first."
I said eagerly: "How can I have such a class? And what is this lifestyle job?"
"Again, don't ever use common terms here or you will look suspicious! Lifestyle is a mode of play like adventurer mode. "
"Onita didn't tell me about that!"
"That's because she knew that you were from outside the Empire. Only those from the Empire have the chance to play Lifestyle mode from the beginning."
"That's unfair! Ok, just tell me how I can learn this crafting technique."
"You used a common term again! You are hopeless!"
I looked at him, begging, "Please tell me. My dream is to own a Mecha and drive it on the battlefield. That would be awesome!"
"You really are hopeless! Listen, when you go to the town you can learn blacksmithing from the blacksmith association. But you need a lot of gold coins to be able to learn the blacksmith class. Also, you need to work hard."
"What is a town? What is this blacksmith association? What are those gold coins? Are they real gold?"
He sighed helplessly! He looked at me like he was seeing a dumb girl. He then explained:
"When a player reaches level 10, he can then go to the town. It's like a big city in a kingdom. There you can learn new skills and you can upgrade your class. There are also many associations that help players to learn Lifestyle classes for money.
This money is divided into copper coins, silver coins, and gold coins. 1000 copper coins are equal to one silver coin. 1000 silver coins are equal to one gold coin. And yeah it is real gold!"
I remembered that in my Inventory I had read the word "Copper" before. I checked it to find that I have only 100 copper. According to shin, that was a very small amount of wealth! I needed a lot of gold coins to be able to learn blacksmithing.
"I only have 100 copper coins."
"That's natural. Every newbie gets 100 copper as a gift from the game."
"Then how can I get a lot of coins then? I need a lot of coins in order to be able to learn blacksmithing."
"We need to kill a lot of monsters. Each monster has a certain drop rate of coins according to its level and grade. Also, you can get coins from Treasure Chests. Later you can sell the equipment that you don't need."
"Slow down a little. Can you explain more to me?"
"Ok, I will explain slowly but don't interrupt me. Here in Destiny, every monster has a level and a grade.
Higher-level and grade monsters have a better drop. The monsters ahead of us are normal grade monsters. Their drop usually has trash equipment and some copper coins."
"Then how can I get higher grade equipment and more coins?"
"Didn't I tell you not to interrupt me? Unbelievable!"
"C'mon cool swordsman, tell me."
"What did you call me?"
"Nothing! I was coughing and not speaking."
He looked at me in a funny way. I didn't know that my smile scared him so he took a few steps back and said:
"I already have a girlfriend."
"Who cares about you! Just answer my questions!"
"If you need better gear then you need to kill monsters higher than the normal grades.
To find those you need to move outside the leveling areas that surround the village. You can also kill monsters higher than your level. But that has a lot of risk."
"Then let's kill higher levels then."
I was determined! He looked at me and tried more than once to persuade me not to do that. I neglected his advice and walked past the rabbits' zone. He followed my steps looking at me like he was looking at a crazy person who was seeking death.
I knew from Shin that after the level 1 rabbits' zone was level 2 sheep. Then level 3 foxes, level 4 wild cows, level 5 wolves, level 6 snakes, level 7 hyenas, level 8 unicorns, level 9 crocodiles and finally, level 10 tigers.
When I entered the level 2 sheep zone, I found a lot of players teaming up to kill sheep. These sheep looked peaceful and comfy. I didn't want to kill them. When I moved towards the next zone, I found many groups of white-furred foxes running everywhere.
These foxes were one meter tall. They were bigger than I had thought. When I looked one in the eye, I felt a shiver down my spine. That ignited my fighting spirit. You damn foxes are mine!
"I want to kill these foxes."
"You know that you're crazy? These are level 3 monsters! Each of them has 450 HP! They also have a herd nature. As you can see they move in groups. If we attack one, then the rest of the group will attack us! "
"What is the problem then? Let's kill them all! The more the better!"
"You are a lunatic! Tell me who will defend you while you kill them? We don't have a tank!"
"Tank? What is a tank? Is it a class?"
"Yeah, they are from the Defenders class. They defend us while we attack these monsters."
I looked around to see no one but us.
"Don't you have any friends to contact? You can contact players here, right?"
"Yeah, if you know their names in the game. You can also add them as friends. But I don't have any friends in the game."
"Who said so? You are my friend. C'mon, add me."
"I don't want to be a friend of a lunatic like you?"
"You damn crazy cool swordsman! Just add me!"
"What did you just call me?"
"Never mind. I don't want to be friends with someone useless like you."
