《Legacy Online》Level 6 - First Quest
Advertisement
Yin Xian now stood in front of the potion seller-- Madam Passion.
“Young man, what is your name?” she asked.
“Little B-B-- Panda…” He almost called himself ‘Little Brat’.
“Little Panda? What an odd name…” Madam Passion gave him looks of doubt, but she did not go any further than that.
“Say, young man, where did you learn to move like that? For a beginner like you to give two lightning-quick jabs at that Inferno Panda’s weak spot, even I doubted my eyes at first, almost missing it, too.”
Madam Passion’s eyes were filled with interest.
“Oh, that was its weak spot? I had no idea.” Yin Xian laughed.
“Playing a fool now, are you? Well, that’s fine too. Young man, how about doing me a favor?”
Yin Xian’s eyes shone with interest upon hearing that she wanted a favor. “A Quest?”
With a mysterious smile on her face, Madam Passion handed him an empty potion bottle.
Upon receiving the empty bottle, a screen appeared before him.
[Madam Passion would like a favor from you; do you accept?]
“Give me the details,” he said.
“I have been looking for someone to help me fill that bottle up with Luminous Water that can found in the depths of the Luminous Cave. However, that place is a dangerous cave that’s home to many Powerful-Grade beasts, so help never came. I hope you can help me.”
“How powerful are Powerful-Grade beasts?” He asked.
“The weakest beasts around are Normal-Grade, and Powerful-Grade beasts are merely one grade above that. While they are not all that powerful, it will be extremely hard for beginners like you. However, I have seen your strength, and out of the countless humans I have seen, you are the strongest, by far, too…”

“I understand, I’ll get this Luminous Water for you.”
[You have accepted Madam Passion’s request.]
[You have unlocked the Quest System.]
“Thank you, young hero.”
“Then, I’ll be back.”
Yin Xian cooly walked away---
--- Only to stop walking and turn around with an awkward expression on his face.
“Where is this Luminous Cave, again?” He chuckled awkwardly.
Madam Passion showed him an indifferent smile and pointed southeast.
“Two miles away from here is the entrance to this village; just walk straight, and you’ll enter the Silent Forest. Once you’re inside, you should see a triangle-shaped rock. Stand in front of the sharpest edge with your back touching the edge, and walk thirty steps forward, twenty step to your left, ten steps to your right, and finally, take three steps forward. Any missteps and your soul shall wander in the Silent Forest… for all eternity…”
“Uh…”
Yin Xian’s jaw loosened just listening to her give directions. What is this place, a hidden maze? Is this really a beginner’s village where noobs like him gathered?
“Then, I’ll see you later.” He bid her farewell.
Madam Passion silently watched as Yin Xian slowly disappear into the crowds, thinking to herself. “Although I feel bad for giving him such a request, it should be fine with his strength that could render even an Inferno Panda powerless. His Legacy, I really want to know what kind of inheritance he received that grants him such powers.”
Half an hour had passed since Yin Xian began his first quest, yet he had just reached the exit of the village.
“Quest System, huh?” He recalled seeing such a notification upon accepting Madam Passion’s request, but he didn’t pay much attention to it back then.
“Quest!”

[Madam Passion’s Favor]
Upon focusing on the only quest available inside the Quest window, another window popped up.
[Madam Passion’s Favor] [Grade: Test] [Difficulty: Impossible]
[Madam Passion requests of you to go to the Luminous Cave to retrieve some Luminous Water.]
[Players Recommended: 6]
[Level Recommended: 10]
[Rewards Upon Completion: Unknown]
“What the---”
Yin Xian’s steps halted at where they stood, and he stared at the quest window with disbelief in his eyes.
“Impossible? 6 players recommended? Level 10 recommended? How the hell am I supposed to complete this, then?"
Given such an impossible quest at Level 1 was simply too ridiculous. Not only is this his first quest, but it may also be his first failed quest...
“Not only was that NPC during my character creation unreasonable, but even this NPC inside a beginner’s village is unreasonable! This is a quest taken from inside a beginner's village, for heaven’s sakes... How people manage to play and stay in such an unreasonable game is a mystery itself!"
After taking in a few deep breaths, Yin Xian continued his steps. Although the system may have deemed it impossible for him, he had no intentions of backing out.
“I’ll take this as a challenge from the game to me, and not only do I never back down from a challenge but I also never lost a challenge before!”
“So what if I have no Legacy? So what if the NPCs are unreasonable? That alone is not enough to pressure me---"
“Wait…”
He halted his steps, again.
“I… don’t have a weapon…”
He facepalmed upon realizing that he was barehanded at the moment. How was he going to complete an impossible mission without a weapon?
“Hopefully there’s something I can use inside this Storage Ring that Xiao Mo had given me…”
“Storage Ring, open!”
A window popped up, and inside this window was a dozen items.
[Powerful Perception Enhancing Potion]
[Powerful Endurance Enhancing Potion]
[Powerful Immunity Enhancing Potion]
[Powerful Strength Enhancing Potion]
[Instant Cast Talisman: Smoke]
[Teleportation Talisman]
[Gold Coin]
[Gold Coin]
[Gold Coin]
[Gold Coin]
[Gold Coin]
[Note]
The first thing Yin Xian noticed was that items do not stack in this game as all five Gold Coins were in separate boxes.
“How inconvenient…”
“Oh, is this a teleporting item? I thought Xiao Mo had said that those were extremely rare and valuable? Ah, getting spoiled once in a while feels pretty good---”
[You have unlocked the Title System]
[You have been granted the ‘Spoiled’ title]
[You have unlocked the Achievement System]
[+1 Achievement]
“Uh….”
Dumbfounded by the sudden arrival of two new systems and an unpleasant title, Yin Xian could only stand there like a dumb chicken.

The Everlasting. (Completed)
An Everlasting. A title given to those who have reached a state closest to godhood. Be it through might and power or through love and compassion. These beings hold great influence over the realms. This story is about Asura, a young orphaned child, who was taught the way of the blade and has mastered the Warrior Arts at a very young age. Given a recommendation by his master, Asura ventures out to broaden his horizons and to learn magic. Follow Asura’s journey and his quest to reach Everlastinghood. Comment by the author: Looking at the chapter list, you might have noticed Volume 1 is not there. The reason is that it’s in the process of being published so I’m somewhat restricted in where and how I can post it. Edit. 18/04/2017 The first volume is now officially on sale. It is no longer possible to get the first volume for free. I am sorry but it was free for a long time and it was time for it. However if you like to support me you can find th first volume here on Amazon (getBook.at/TheEverlasting) Compared to other stories on Royal Road this one is faster paced. No artificial extensions of the story by spending forever in generic constructs, like random ranking tournaments, that don’t really matter for the overall plot. That’s the plan anyway. Volumes consist roughly of 30-35k words. Additionally: I am not a native speaker, nor have I had any formal education in the English language. I am trying very hard to improve myself. If you want to help me by proofreading my story, shoot me a PM and we’ll see if we can arrange something. Other than my thanks and fake internet points I can’t offer anything, though. Yeah, poor student here… Edit 22/06/2017 Hey the story is officially ended if i ever decide to continue it will be on another date. The ending is open for anyone to use their imagination. Thank you all for the support. I hope we could meet later in the Everlasting II. Respectfully Biako
