《Chaos Wave》Volume 1 - Chapter 5 - The Lucky Executioner
Advertisement
I woke up after a two hour nap, and decide to distribute my points before my shift. I pull up my Stat panel, and pump forty-three points my willpower up to a hundred and one, to match my constitution and intelligence base scores, giving me a massive six hundred six MP. After that, I frown. Normally, people at my level cannot place points into spirit, but since I have a deity, I should be able to, shouldn't I? I smile as I add twenty-five points into my spirit. I then put the remaining sixteen points into my constitution, allowing me to take another ninety-six damage before I die.
Now that I've applied my stat points, I pull up my skill panel. Forty-one points to spend... On the wiki, I saw that Shield of Bone would upgrade to Armor of Bone at level fifty, but I'm not sure if I want to upgrade it to that yet. I could also upgrade Trainer to fifty, but that would be a bit premature too, as I don't have the other skills to make the Beastmaster Skill. I take twelve points and max out Luck's Admiration.

My jaw fell open. I just lost a lot of my big buffs, but now I have a party wide buff, and I can reclaim the passive bonus from the Max level Luck's admiration at the same time. Not to mention Lucky Wish remained at 750 gold cost, instead of a full thousand. I look at my skill panel, and notice I still have twenty-eight points to spend. I shake my head and raise the effect of Blood Magic by fifteen levels, and Intelligence up by thirteen.
I receive a notification of a new Spell created by Blood Magic, and that Intelligence Up now gives a 10% bonus and an additional Skill point at level up.
Blood Magic - Skill Level 20
Drain (HP) has been maxed out.
Access to Spell: Drain (MP)

Excellent, I can bypass the Limiter with this! I get up and brush off my pants, and peek outside the door, seeing Oathshield having pinned the bandit on the ground with his boot, his axe raised above his head. I quickly cast 'Luck's Star' before informing him of how to get Elite Executioner and Trophy Hunter. "Chop his head off, that's how you get the Elite Executioner title and the ability to collect trophies," I tell him, and he adjusts the swing of his axe to do just that, rolling the bandit chief's head from his neck.

"Excellent! Now that's a fantastic way to increase strength and dexterity! It's amazing what new players come across," he chuckles. "Also, that's an amazing buff you just gave me. Luck's Star? Well now... The bastard's loot is treated as Grade 3! Amazing!"
"So, I upgraded Luck's Admiration into Luck's Blessing, which, while decreasing my personal buffs, changed the buffs into party-wide passives, and upped Lucky Stars from a party-wide spread of Luck's Admiration's passives to an application of those maxed out passives on a single target."
"So you've decided not to hide your info from us? That's wise. It's always good to have friends who know what you need. Just so you know, you're not the only rich member in the Guild... Foambeard and Helmstriker are also millionaires, and I... well, I was a billionaire before my wife divorced me and the company I owned kicked me out and kept her... I've got a few million still, but we need to be careful so we don't make those who aren't rich in funds but rich in love and happiness leave us. Let me guess, you spent a cool fifty grand on the cloak and the coin, right?"
"Yes, how'd you know?"
"Well, you should be grateful for Helmstriker interrupting you, as Rockenroll was starting to look jealous. He and his wife were facing life in prison for crimes someone else did, and their lawyer decided the best place for them would be here since there was no way they would have been able to convince the jury, the planted evidence was that strong."
"I see... I hope I did the right thing by donating four points of constitution to Rockenroll. I was just trying to help him, but I don't want him angry with me. When we get back, I was planning to donate a maximum of his wife's bonuses to her, so she could continue a little more growth on skills as well as stats..."
"Mind giving me five skill points? I'd love to have some spare ones, since I just got Thievery and Lockpicking scrolls off the bandit chief."
"I don't mind at all. I've got fourteen points to distribute at the moment, after all." I bring up the Donate menu, click the Donate Skills tab, and select Oathshield. I frown softly. "I can donate Raw Skill Points, but I can also see all your skills, and increase them if I want. Amazing..." I quickly swapped back over to the Stats tab, and nod slightly.
"Okay, so I just missed it then. Wow, donating Raw points grants me two Karma Credits each instead of the one I get for manually selecting a stat and increasing it..." I move over to the Skill Tab, and give Oathshield the max of ten of my fourteen donatable skill points, smiling softly as I see my Karma counter go up to thirty-four.
"Is that a torch I see?" I ask Oathshield as I point towards the trail into the clearing. As Oathshield studies it, it becomes apparent that Lionol's group is arriving. "Okay, so looks like we can hand watches over to them, or are we going to keep priority on the minotaurs?"
Lionol waves as he approaches. "So, you guys came out already? I can't wait for the bandit chief to respawn... I intend to skin the bastard alive," he states coldly.
"You do know anything you do to the chief, the AI in charge of the game will know what you do and may start altering other NPCs to use methods like you plan to use, don't you?" I ask him. "Do you really want to teach them how to torture us more?"

"So what do you suggest then? Keep killing him and looting his corpse? How will that teach him anything?"
"It will pressure him to move back to his old camping site and away from Player zones. On the other hand, we could always drag him back to the Fort and ask the King to put him in chains. This isn't a normal game character... he's self aware, and torturing him will just encourage him to do the same once we leave him alone. What we need to do is make him realize that there will always be penalties when he messes with Players like us."
"Alright, alright, I get your point... you're right of course, we can't evolve them to become even more violent towards players..."
"So, if I might suggest, we'll let you handle the bandit chief, and you can get his loot, but we get the minotaur and its loot. We'll share the low level bandits."
We shake on it, and I show them to the treasure coffer, which refills with each spawn of the bandit chief. Thanks to the Loot Upgrade I gave to Oathshield, it was completely full, and I have Oathshield take the contents.
Over the course of the next three hours, I finish my Divine Quest from Lady Luck, and can't help but smile.

I'd also increased my level twice in the last three hours, so I sit on the steps and pull up my Status panel and blink as I see that it's already past midnight and my prepurchased bonus was applied. Rockenroll, or one of Lionol's crew was taking all the items that dropped, so my ultimate bag of holding didn't have much stuff in it at the moment. I look at Rockenroll and pull up the Donate panel.
I donate the allowable seven stat and four skill points I can to him, maxing out his day's donation until he gets a higher constitution or intelligence modifier. I put another twenty-five points into spirit, because I noticed I was criting more, as well as succeding with the aimed debilitation attacks more frequently. The remaining thirty-five points got split fifteen to dexterity and ten each to constitution and willpower.
So, with having sixty-three skill points to distribute, I decide to max out Luck's Blessing with forty-nine points.

I whistle softly, and decide to hold onto the remaining fourteen points until I can max out another skill next level. I cast Luck's Star II, and then use Lucky Strike III on a bandit, cutting off its leg at the knee and watching its health bar drop to twenty-five percent from a single strike. I use Lucky Strike III to take his head, hitting a whopping fifty on the Execution Count.

I lick my lips at all the bonuses piling up. At this rate, I just couldn't believe the bonuses I was obtaining. Surely, I will have to give up somthing eventually... But this is neither here nor there. I roam further from the rest of the two groups, and remain active for the next four hours, until the sun rises at six in the morning. I'm panting, exhausted from the efforts I just put in. I stagger back into the clearing just as the bandit chief is trying to flee.
"Lucky Strike!" I call out, and the scythe slices his head completely off, killing him in a single hit. I've minimized all my messages for the last four hours, only paying attention to my HP and TP bars. I kneel next to the chief, and try to pull up his Loot list, only to find that he was automatically looted.

I groan as I stagger over to Oathshield with everything in my own inventory. I pull up the inventory and see that the reason I'm staggering is because I'm in 'Overload', and that my level is a whopping 35, as well as Porky's level being 40! I open up the minimized announcements.

"So, where have you been these last four hours?"
"Hunting bandits for divine quests and executions. You enjoy the free buffs and experience?"
He burst out laughing. "Rockenroll has leveled up three times off your free experience wagon."
"Good. I'm about to turn in a quest, which had a forty-eight hour timelimit, and I just completed it with the chief as he tried to run away." I click 'Yes' on the quest and smile.

I quickly use the Evasion, Speed Up, Nightvision, and Gold Sense skills from my bag, then look at Oathshield. "I've got over five hundred skill points to distribute..."
"Good, better get to work on it."
I whistle softly and increase Shield of Bones to fifty, then spend another point upgrading it to Armor of Bones. I put forty-nine more points into Nightvision, and then spend a point upgrading it to Dark Vision, which I then max out. I max out my Concentration, and both Blood Magic and Necromancy. I decide to max out the Traps skill for another forty-six points.
Literature, Creature Analysis, and Unlucky Foes also get maxed out. I increase Intelligence Up to Rank thirty, review my points, and smile. I still have eighty-two. I take half of them, and max out Trainer, scratching behind Porky's ear. I look down at the Scythe in my hands and laugh, pumping the Scythe Proficiency to maximum as well. One skill point remaining.

I drop concentration, creature analysis, literature, and trap skills into Reserve, and move evasion, speed up, executioner's aura, and gold sense up into their places. I take the available stats and pump forty into Spirit, raising its base value to two hundred, raise strength and dexterity to a hundred each and sit back, realizing I still had three hundred eight-one points to spend. I raise my base constitution, intelligence and willpower to two hundred, then my spirit by another one hundred fifty points. I decide to leave the last three points for my next level.
"Almost ready to go?" Oathshield asks me.
I glance at the clock, and realize with a shock I had just spend the better part of two hours on upgrading my skills and stats! "Sure. Those goblins won't know what hit them!"
------------------------------------------------
Author's Notes:
Sorry it took this long to get it out. After I do some work on my PC, I'll be installing the Amazon Kindle apps to be able to publish with their Kindle Direct Publishing.
This is the end of Volume 1 Part 1. Volume 1 Part 2 will likely be Chapters 6-11, at which point I'll be releasing Volume 1 in its entirety as well as Volume 1 Part 2.
I know there's a LOT of technical skill stuff near the end of the chapter, and I've been considering cutting it out for the most part.
Anyways, for those who are reading this, I would like to thank you very much. For those who are wondering about 'Critical Luck IV' it was Automatically accepted as a Divine Quest, and its requirement was automatically completed which was 'Complete a total of 250 or more Consecutive Critical Hits'. With the fact that every Execution completely refilled his TP, he was able to do the 500 Critical, DoT, and Debuff and the 250+ Consecutive Crits at the same time.
For those wondering, Armor of Bone will be able to be upgraded at level 50, provided he has hit Rank 3 (by killing 150 goblins with the scythe). Upon Evolving, Armor of Bone will become 'Fortress of Bones'.
For all those who are hating how OP he is, don't worry, I've got plans other than his 'Rival' Godlings.
I wish all my readers a Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah, or whatever Yuletide seasonal holiday you celebrate. Chapter 6 will likely be posted around Christmas or shortly thereafter.
Feel free to leave a comment on your opinion if I should remove the Skill Updates list.

Rory Richardson: If He Had Lived.
Join Rory on what could have been. Taken tragically from life by sudden infant death syndrome. Join in the reimagining of what his life could have been... With a system forced reset of human civilisation thrown in for good measure. One minute Rory was a college student struggling under pressure, the next he and the entire world find themselves at the mercy of the System. Its sick sense of humour results in Rory and hundreds of others going through the tutorial from hell. Monsters straight out of myth become reality, forcing Rory and the unlucky group to fight if they are to have any chance of survival. Those that overcome the tutorial will be thrust into a totally alien world, where might and magic rule and where humanity is far from the top of the food chain. Join Rory as he comes to grips with his new reality, developing new powers and gaining friends and foes alike. This is my first attempt at writing a story of any kind and is dedicated to Rory who died from SIDS at a far too young an age. This story will contain great adventures, epic battles, good friends and foes alike. I am aiming to create a world that will, in some small measure, hopefully keep his memory alive.
8 93The Eldritch Horror Returns to Earth, but Things are a Bit Different
One day, Adam B. Windsley was in this world, and then, he wasn't. Suddenly trasported into a strange world called Lutum, Adam finds himself in the body of a small, unassuming slug, and during the course of 600 years, he evolved beyond the scope of humans, becoming one of the Five Evil Gods, worshipped by his followers and treated as a God would. But he isn't happy. And after some time reaquainting himself with humans, he finds himself enjoying their company. But, in a sudden twist of events, he finds himself back in his own world. But he is still a giant tentacle-covered monstoristy. And where did these magical girls come from?... --------- In short, this is a story focusing on a somewhat edgy reincarnated-as-a-monster kind of guy who returned back to his world on the day of his transferral, only for strange, unusual things to happen. Monsters from his past world start popping up out of the blue, and ordinary people are suddenly learning of sorcery, becoming magical girls in the process. In terms of structure, it will mostly be about what happens to Adam after coming back, but at times, there will also be chapters focusing on Adam's life before his transferred, in chronological order. In other words, very typical isekai stuff. The chapters will be between 2000 and god-only-knows-how-many words and will be released every three days at 8 am, CST. I don't actually live in America so if chapter release is off by an hour or so, it's probably either because I messed up with the time, or because I was unable to finish a chapter on time-, The artwork on the cover belongs to yours truly, I drew it myself and I'm darn tootin' proud of it, and Omni is my dear co-writer who got me this far. Couldn't do it without him! With that said, I do hope you enjoy, as I did put way too much effort into it... Enjoy!

8 81The Cursed Imperial Heart
In a world divided into different social classes, a nameless girl starts her journey rather tiring than most kids. Abandoned by her parents, she became a servant at a very young age to a wealthy noble family--the Brotillon, a family of powerful water elementals. Whose head is a well known Viscount. Though the girl was born with shiny brown hair and sparkling brown eyes, it was for that reason that she became a laughing stock to those around her. With no one to turn to for support, she swore to learn how to use magic no matter what! But as each day goes by, the beatings and humiliation got worse and worse. Finally had enough, she lashed out screaming! Done with the world she lived in! Done with her life! Only to faint out of exhaustion afterwards. Upon opening her eyes, she expected nothing more than an empty room with no one inside but her. However, it was the opposite! A room full off doctors and worried faces?! Indeed, she must have hit her head so hard when she fainted! She's probably just hallucinating, right?! But to her shock, it was all real! The Viscount who constantly beat her, patted her on the head?! The mistress who ridiculed her every chance she got, was worried?! Not just that, but----CRYING?! This continued for the next few weeks, and it looked like the 'situation' won't be stopping anytime soon. But she of all people knew, that it was all an act. But the question is, why? She screamed and lashed out at them, so why? Or perhaps, what she really needs to be asking are.... What REALLY happened before she fainted? What are they hiding from her? And lastly, Why are they suddenly interested in her eyes?
