Versatile: Alternate World Chapter 182
Advertisement
The werewolf battle took a few minutes before it was killed. We are thankful that the area is not populated with players due to the number of newbie players venturing outside the lower leveled zones. Basically, the area we are farming is a place where higher leveled players that graduated from being a newbie will try to get some exploration done. Of course, this place is skippable for many and would just skip directly to another area with very good drops, has an easier-to-kill mob, and players always roaming about. It is also understandable that there are a lower amount of people in the area due to how most players right now are either in mid 50 above and most players are more on investing time in a certain area where good drops appear and are helpful.
Hagane struggled for a bit but his tenacity, defense, and his dedication allowed him to slay the boss without our help. I just gave him some pointers on how to defeat it without too much step-by-step way to kill it. Aside from that, he also didn't get a heal from me since his HP is still a half bar. He didn't even have the [Heal] ability a paladin usually has just yet but still he managed to deal with the boss with only basic equipment.
"Holy sh*t! That was the most intense battle and workout I have done my whole life! I thought I was going to die!"
"I don't think you will since even if you died, I would have already revived you once again and bring you back to full health after. You will still be able to fight back again."
"That is good to hear, and thankfully, I don't need it," Hagane said.
"So, did you level up? What items did you get?" Dolly asked.
Hagane looked into the drops and picked all of them up. Since there are no enemies, he climbs up to Leona's back and shows the drops to us.
"These are all the drops that fell after the boss died. There are some stuff that looked cool but I don't know if they are indeed useful since some things looked cool but useless."
Dolly looked into the drops and she identifies one of the items. I also identified it as a necklace.

"This one is good. I suggest you wear it then sell it. You can sell it in the future once you get better gear. You can look at this Bladeheart," then Dolly handed the necklace to me.
[Werewolf Necklace]
Type: Necklace Equipment
Rarity: Rare Tier
Equippable at: Level 10
Equippable by: All classes
AGI: 12
DEX: 21
Skill:
1. Move like a Wolf (Active) - enhances the user's running speed and dodging speed.
Info: A necklace made from the remains of the werewolf's victims. It is usually made crudely but those with a presentable look are made by some of the highly intelligent werewolves.
Note: Isn't that just fishbone?! What kind of fashion sense do you have to wear a fishbone?! I would have understood if it was normal bones since those can be used as necklaces but fishbone?
This time around, I am not going to criticize the note but applaud you for stating the very obvious question the moment you have seen the item.
This is a f*cking fishbone. A fishbone from a big fish and has been made into a necklace. It looks ridiculous and it looks uncomfortable to wear. It was like you ate a fish and you find the bone that was left behind the fish kind of a waste to throw away so you made it into a necklace. Even though the ability looks useful, I won't be using this crap. Just by looking at it, I might even get pierced by one of its sharp points.
"You want this?" I asked Hagane. After all, I am not the one wearing the necklace but him.
"Design-wise, it is a big flop. As for the effects, it's a bit of a meh and useless for me?" Hagane tilted his head.
"Do you want it?"
"You can have it, I am not going to wear something that would make me look ridiculous," Hagane said.
"You sure? This looks like cool and has a useful effect..." Dolly said and grab the necklace from my hands.
"I doubt your fashion sense in the past when I accompanied you in shopping. Now I am very sure your fashion sense is quite weird. If you like it, you can have it," Hagane said.
"Nope, I already have a good necklace, why would I replace this one?" she said and pulled out her necklace that is a level 74 necklace, Tear of the Mermaid that is dropped by sea monsters in Resurgia.

"Then, this one is in the sell category. I doubt this will sell in the auction so let's just sell this on the normal shop," I said.
"There are also some materials but I don't know their usage yet. As for the last item, it is equipment and it is a pair of shoes."
He pulls out a pair of shoes and thankfully, it is a normal pair. I check its stats and nodded. It is only basic stats and it is a normal gear, however, this is definitely much better compared to the fishbone necklace earlier.
The items that were dropped are not that good but not that great either. In the end, the drops were on a little bit of a bad side. The only good thing that happened after it was killed was that Hagane leveled up from 15 to level 17.
"Your level is now manageable. Let's go raid some dungeons then and collect some items too to replace your beginner gear."
"That would be cool. Let's do this!" Hagane was excited.
"Are we going to fight around this time?" Dolly looked at me with anticipation.
"Yes. This time, you need to participate since you are not that high leveled and can still contend with some dungeons. As for me, I would make everything overkill so I will just watch on the sidelines."
We are about to go away when I hear gunshots and screaming nearby. If this is the real world, people would need to start running or calling the police but since this is just a game, there is no need to do that.
"F*ckers! Come and get me!"
Then, a player came out from the forest. It was a male player and he is holding a staff used by a cleric. His outfit too is a robe which means this guy is a cleric.
When he reach our place, he stopped and catches his breath. He also looked at us and gives a thumbs up all of a sudden.
"Hey, guys! You can be my witness for today alright? I need some proof that I am innocent in this matter and they choose the wrong person to chase!"
Then, a few seconds later, a group of players with red tags appeared. One of them is a gunslinger which means the gunshots earlier and the screams were caused by this guy. The group also noticed us and their eyes lit up the moment they saw us.
"Holy sh*t, we are in luck! Look at those big shots! We will be able to loot a good amount of items today! We can also deal with that damnable healer too. It is a good thing we chased him all the way here!"
I want to laugh seeing them look at us hungrily. Based on their equipment, they are only around level 20 above. I can flick them out of their existence and will not even bother with them. In fact, their attacks might even appear as just 1 due to my defense.
"Hey, hey. Who said you can drag these innocent players to your shenanigans? I am your target, right? Then go ahead and attack me! Don't keep me waiting bastards!"
The players who were all PK players grit their teeth in anger. "You f*cker, you are definitely digging your grave. Do you want these losers to help you? Ha, fine! We will gladly grab the goodies out!"
"Oops? Who said they will also participate in the battle? They might be here but they are just spectators! They don't need to be involved in this ridiculous fight!"
"HA! You think a healer can even do anything to us?"
"Hmph. Don't look down on me that much. You guys will regret it. I may be a healer class player but who said I can't whoop an ass?"
"Woah, is he serious? Aren't healers only for support?" Hagane asked.
"Haha, you have not seen real PVP in this game right? Then maybe you will be able to witness one today. It isn't that bad and it is definitely an interesting concept to watch. If this healer has indeed a good fighting style, you won't see a healer the same way again."

Dark Lands: The Exile and the Prince
A short time has passed since the siege on Ruined Home has been lifted and as the survivors of the battered encampment slowly begin to rebuild their new home, Aurelius has returned from a failed troll hunt. Yet despite the battered prince’s failures, he has set into motion a series of events that will forever change his life. Meanwhile, Iskra has found herself at the helm of a far more favorable position and begins to forge a path that will lead her towards the first steps of a long road of revenge. Author’s Note: This is the direct sequel to the first Dark Lands story and as time goes on I will update the synopsis to help bring further detail about the story. For now however, I hope you all enjoy what is about to be written. Eight Years Arc: Eight Years have passed since Aurelius and Iskra have first met one another, and a lot has changed since then. The vast majority of Aurelius’ family has been slaughtered by the hands of none other than his oldest brother, a man that the golden haired prince had spent the past several years to hunt down and kill all in the name of vengeance. Upon his return, the kin-slaying prince has found that some things have changed during his absence. Iskra, his first wife and love of his life, has proclaimed that she no longer cares about the events that have been unfolding in her former homeland for the last several years and states that she is solely focused on raising her children. Yet it is through learning that the High Elves have taken a keen interest in the once magically-absent lands of Ranislava that Aurelius decides that action must be taken and thus he journeys south to learn more about what his distant kin are up to in such a backwater region of the world. Who he will meet and what he will do will turn the tides of fate, but in whose favor is something that only the Gods will know. (The Eight Years arc is something that was designed to be written in a way where people don't have to feel the need to go back to the very beginning of the Dark Lands story in order to know what is going on or who the characters are.)

Stairway to Heaven
Humans are complicated, awfully fragile beings, far too weak to survive amid the other extraterrestrials that lie dormant across the galaxies. Instead of physical altercations, they would rather engage in verbal abuse, breaking an individual's psyche as a hobby. They excel at deception and manipulation, far too interested in bringing their brothers and sisters down and reaching for the top of their self-made hierarchies. Beyond their questionable nature and moral compasses, they long to find meaning in their lives and put names to the feelings that drive each passing moment. They are insatiable—far too greedy for more knowledge and a supposed understanding of their lives. It's pitiable, really, the way they struggle to find themselves while ravaging their kind through petty wars and conflicts built off of misunderstanding. Humans are complicated, awfully fragile beings. They created words and languages to fill the holes that lived inside their souls, desperate for ways to find meaning in their incredibly short lifespans. They'll waste their entire lives trying to find their so-called passions and reasons for living, acting as if they truly rule the way their lives go, supposed "controllers of their own destiny." Yet, they cannot evade the inevitable visit from death, who stands next to them, ticking the seconds down until their demise.
