Anyway, after welcoming me gleefully, she kept telling me to access 'Revival Legend' as soon as possible. My father and brother were still working at the company. So at her strong urging, I logged into the game and moved to the secret house in Rodon Castle that only my family members and Director Sok knew about.

When my sister and I moved to the basement of the secret house, I saw a small arena there that they had built without telling me about.

"Hahahaha, brother. I never expected a day like this would come."

With her arms folded, she spoke with a big smile.

Of course, I knew why she was all smiles, but I asked her, pretending not to know, "What do you mean?"

"You really don't know? I can teach you a good lesson today," she said jubilantly.

Of course, I knew she tried to comfort me after hearing my complaints.

My sister was kind and generous to me like this.

But I was stupid enough not to have noticed this characeristic of hers in the past.

Why? Like my elder brother, she was very smart, so both of them were the target of my jealousy.

So, I said, smiling gently at her, "Well, do you think you can teach me?"

"Are you kidding? Don't you remember you cried and complained to me that you were back to being a total beginner at level 0"

"Nope! I didn't cry!"

I immediately refuted her exaggeration, but she didn't care.

Anyway, because there was no death penalty nor an increase of the number of deaths in the pre-installed small arena, I finally agreed to have a match against her.

"Fireball! Fire Arrow!"

As a matter of fact, she was also participating in the event.

Regardless of whether or not she ranked in the top 30, the 450 remaining stat point reward was so attractive to her as she was already over level 1000.

So, she freely used the low-level fire-type skills she had available to her.

Of course, I didn't respond to her attacks.

Since I tanked the attacks of the level 800-9000 sabre steel tooth tigers, my sister's attack would barely tickle me.

As for my counterattack? Of course, I didn't.

It was highly likely that my sister, a fire-type wizard, would be immediately struck down even with my low level skills like Ice Ball or Ice Bolt.

So, my sister attacked me, but I endured without striking back.

As expected, she noticed my strange behaviour.

Perhaps that's why she stopped attacking and immediately asked, "Didn't you say you were participating in the event?"

"Yes, I am participating in it," I casually replied to her, who was clearly very embarrassed.

"Are you making fun of me?"

"Hahaha," I burst into laughter instead of replying.

She approached me with an angry expression, but I wasn't scared at all.

Anyway, when she came close to me, I opened my mouth.

"Check status window. Reveal everything."

Since seeing is believing, I showed my status window to her.

[Name: Asirante, Lumen

Level: 167

Number of kills: 0, Number of deaths: 0

Title: Ice Emperor. (You can't acquire titles other than Ice Emperor.)

Health: 1,852,000 / 1,852,000

Mana: 1,861,000 / 1,861,000

Strength: 18010 Agility: 18010 Stamina: 18270

Willpower: 18310 Intellect: 21427

Remaining Stat Points: 0

Remaining Skill Points: 0

Traits: Primal Ice. (You can't acquire traits other than Primal Ice)]

After reaching level 100, I acquired three skill points and used them to learn level 2 Ice Field, Pouring Hail and Ice Blast. It was natural I did so.

However, every time I learned one of the skills, a message rang right away.

[ You have acquired a new ice-type skill called 'Ice Field'.

-All stat points increase by 1000 due to the effects of the Ice Emperor title.]

The above message rang when I learned not only Ice Field, but also Pouring Hail and Ice Blast. In other words, even though I learned only three new skills, my strength, agility, stamina, willpower, and intellect all increased by 3,000 each.

In addition, I invested in intellect all the remaining stat points I had obtained from leveling up and the remaining stat points that I earned at a low probability from hunting monsters from the effects of the trait 'Primal Ice.'

Thanks to that, by the time I reached level 167, I already surpassed the stats I had at level 600 before participating in the event. Well, describing my status as simply 'surpassed' was not enough because I went through such a drastic change. As a matter of fact, my strength and agility alone reached 18,000, not to mention my intellect, stamina, and willpower.

But even more shocking was the fact that when I reached level 200 my strength, agility, stamina, willpower and intellect would increase by another 3,000 from learning more skills.

Anyway, my sister was aghast when she confirmed my status window.

She said, "How dare you make fun of me? You didn't take part in the 'Catch Up With Yourself' event, did you? By the way, when did your intellect exceed 21,000? Uh? Why is your strength, agility, stamina and willpower also reaching 18,000?"

Her expression was constantly changing, so I gave her a mischievous smile.

Why? Because my status window right now was much better than that of my level 600 status window before. So, if I could choose between my previous status window and my current one, I would always select my current one.

If I acquired 30 ice-type skills, I would get a 30,000 increase in all stat points, which combined with the 10,000 stat points I got initially with the Ice Emperor title, would give me a 40,000 total in each stat point from the title alone. This was a figure that I could not catch up with even with Mutual Growth.

In addition, with the remaining stat points and items acquired by leveling up, and the effects of trait "Primal Ice," I thought I could easily achieve as high as 60,000 intellect.

However, there was something I regretted. Namely, Blink with zero cooldown.

Honestly, I badly wanted the trait, God of Enhancement, but I could give it up because it would be a worthy trade off if I had stat points exceeding 40,000, 50,000 and 60,000.

However, I really could not give up Blink with zero cooldown because it was so good.

"Hahahaha."

At that moment I burst into a smile before I knew it because I was counting my chickens before they hatched.

Watching my strange behaviour, my sister asked again, "What happened? I understand you didn't take part in the event. But your status window doesn't make any sense!"

My sister still seemed to think that I was not participating in this event.

So, I pointed at one part of the status window, namely my level.

"!!!"

Of course, my sister knew what my level was.

In other words, my level 167 was clear evidence that I was participating in this event.

After checking it, my sister couldn't open her mouth for a while, staring at my status window blankly.

That evening there was a big fuss over my status window because of my sister.

So I opened my status window again when my family members and Director Sok gathered at the basement study of my house in Cheongdam-dong.

"..."

"..."

"..."

Before I opened it, they were half in doubt.

After checking it with their eyes, they showed the same reaction as my sister.

Of course, I understood their feelings because even I myself thought my status window was absurd.

At last, my brother said, "Juyoung, it seems the administrator of this game 'Revival Legend' likes you very much."

Hearing that, not only my family members but also Director Sok nodded.

I didn't refute what my brother said because my current status window was enough evidence.

Anyway, it is inevitable that I will win first place in this event.

As a matter of fact, my family and Director Sok also had no doubt that I would win first place.

So, the atmosphere was so good that we all had dinner in the basement study.

While Juyoung was having a great time with his family, there was a grave development unfolding in San Francisco, America.

"What level did you say Asirante was?"

"Well, I've confirmed he is level 167."

"That means…"

"Yes, it is clear that Asirante is also currently participating in the 'Catch Up With Yourself' event."
