In fact, I already had some experience as an archer, and frankly, the fact that I played a wizard in all the games I played so far was because I enjoyed using AOE attacks above all. In other words, it was very important for me to attack my opponent from afar.

Moreover, the archer's damage wasn't that bad either.

Anyway, after I was done with my preparations, I waited for ten minutes.

Soon the shield blocking our exit to the outside disappeared.

"Okay, I'll see you later."

"Take care!"

"Don't worry about us. See you soon!"

After saying goodbye to them, I walked towards the path in the 12 o'clock direction out of the three paths at the 12 o'clock, 4 o'clock, and 8 o'clock directions from the hut.

Tramp- Tramp-

I wasn't in a hurry.

From my abundant experiences, I knew that it was unlikely that this kind of tough quest that changed everybody's items and skills to zero would end quickly.

Thud! Thud! Thud!

First of all, I wanted to check which monsters appeared because I could figure out how difficult this quest was by scouting them out first.

For example, if the first monster were an Orc, this would be a very long quest as I expected.

But what if it were a stronger monster than I thought?

"In that case, compared to the usual quests that changed everybody's items and skills to zero, this quest would be much shorter."

When I looked at the monster in front of me, I could confirm that this would be a long quest because the monster was an orc.

So, I pulled the bowstring straight toward the group of Orcs moving in a straight line.

Shuuuuung!

Puck!

"Kheeeeeeeeek!"

"Khuuuuuuuk!"

I killed a fewOrcs with one arrow. More precisely, my arrow pierced through and killed three orcs, so it could be called a kill-three-with-one arrow attack.

Moreover, the orcs moved in groups of 3, so if they moved in a single file, it was possible that I could kill more than ten with a single strike.

Anyway, I stopped on the spot where I was, and killed all the Orcs on the 12 o'clock road to the hut.

Shuuuuuung!

Shuuuuuung!

Shuuuuuung!

The orcs were killed three at a time even though I didn't use any particular skill or do something extraordinary.

Of course, my level changed.

[You have leveled up.]

[You have leveled up.]

My level was 0 at the start of this quest.

So, my level went up quickly even if I killed Orcs.

Five minutes later, I got rid of all the Orcs that appeared before my eyes.

So, I thought of checking out what monsters would appear next by exploring my surroundings, but there were no monsters in sight.

In other words, it meant that the monsters would appear in waves, and I would have to wait a certain amount of time instead of killing the monsters constantly.

So I messaged my sister.

[Lumen: I killed all the Orcs at the 12 o'clock direction while I was moving. But no monsters appeared immediately after that.]

[Super Beauty: Really?]

[Lumen: Yeah. I think this quest will be longer than we initially anticipated.]

[Super Beauty: Got it.]

When I first discovered the Orcs, I immediately informed my sister in the hut.

No matter how weak the monsters were, it would be like a night and day difference if they encountered the monsters knowing their numbers and positions compared to going in blind.

In particular, all of them were at level 0 instead of their original level.

I wrapped up my conversation with her, then opened my mouth quietly.

"Check status window."

[Name: Lumen, Asirante

Level: 17

Health: 74600 / 74600

Mana: 61700 / 61700

Strength: 475 Agility: 1387 Stamina: 745

Willpower: 616 Intellect: 211

Remaining stat points: 85

Remaining skill points: 0]

In this place, I only gained 5 stat points per level.

In other words, it meant that this place limited not only items and skills, but also stat points.

After learning this, I realized how absurd my current stat points were. They were literally a scam.

Aside from my bow, I chose armor that prioritized agility and other stats over physical and magic defense.

No matter how low the physical and magic defense of the +0 enhancement armor was, I could secure a strong defense by enhancing it to +15 enhancement after all.

And that was part of the reason why I chose a select skill to use my one skill point on and pay a whopping 5 million golden rings for.

[Quick fire. (Passive, Requires Skill Point 1, Requires 5,000,000 golden rings)

: An archer-exclusive skill that increases firing rate by 20% when attacking with a bow.]

Power shots that dealt strong one-shot damage, double shots that fired 2 arrows at once, and triple shots didn't even catch my eye because it was more beneficial to me to fire arrows quickly, as that would maximize the efficiency of my items.

"Hmm. I feel a bit awkward to act arrogantly towards the orcs just because of my items."

As soon as I said that, I stopped getting on my high horse because it was only natural that I achieved such results.

Then, I invested the 85 remaining stat points in agility, then moved off the path to the right in the hopes of encountering stronger monsters.

As a matter of fact, it seemed that the balance of the game was on the verge of breaking now.

Shuuuuung! Shuuuuuung! Shuuuuuuung!

Shhh. Shhh. Shhh.

Puck! Puck! Puck!

One shot, one kill.

Obviously, monsters more powerful than an orc appeared, but they were still killed in one strike. And I didn't forget to pick up all the items they dropped when they died.

In particular, there was one very important item among them.

[The soul sphere of a monster shrouded in darkness. (General)

- Jaya Plains, blessed by the goddess.

However, these plains will be gradually engulfed in darkness when monsters shrouded in darkness appear. You can obtain the soul spheres with a certain probability when killing the monsters shrouded in darkness.

: You can sell them to the general store located in the Last Shelter for 1 million golden rings each.

: You can use 200 to activate the teleport zones randomly located throughout the Jaya Plains. (The activated teleport zone can then be used without any conditions.)]

To be honest, I was a bit worried that I was becoming a little too complacent after killing the Orcs so easily because there was obviously a limit to the area I could explore without Blink with zero cooldown. Why? If I received an emergency message from my team while exploring a place that was so far from the Last Shelter that it would take a day or two to return, I would not be able to get back in time to help them. It would be the same even if I was only a few hours away, let alone a day or two.

So, I had no choice but to wonder if my exploration was useless.

But it was while I was deliberating that the message about the soul spheres of the monsters shrouded in darkness appeared.
