《ASTREA - A Game of Different Realities》Chapter 42
Advertisement
[Sky's Strider Greaves obtained]
[Corrosive Armguards obtained]
[Heart of the Poisonous Vile obtained]
[4x Prismatic Scales obtained]
[7x Silver Scales obtained]
It was a handful of items yet, only two of them were equipment. The rest were common to rare types of crafting materials from the look of it. Lesser than your average drops of bosses in this level I might say, but the two equipment are in amazing quality. One Rare and one Epic Grade item-- That is more than enough for me considering I only hit the boss a single time.
[Corrosive Armguards]
Grade: Rare
Durability: 300/300
Defence: 15
*Increase Poison Resistance Skill by 1
*Deals 1% of your maximum health as poison every time you are hit. Cooldown: 10 seconds
*Part of the Corrosive Stout set
"This armguard has been left to sink in a pool of poisonous liquid while it stands the test of time. Even with all that, it has retained the durability and toughness of a well-made steel armguard."
Condition of use: Level 30 – Strength – 60 – Vitality 50
First armour is a bit of a disappointment. None of my stats meets the requirements to equip the armguards. And even if I did, I would be wasting its potential because the best additional effect it has will be useless to me.
My health was not the highest and letting myself get hit just for the poison damage would be a disadvantage to me rather than a benefit. This is best for tank players like Fifty Silver, but I do not see myself being comfortable with him yet to give away a piece of equipment for free. Selling it is also kind of a waste because it was too good just for me to place it in the market especially when it is a level 30 armour.
Michelle might be interested in it but I doubt she wants it. So in conclusion, I will be holding it for a while.
It is the first and least of the two equipment I got, and I am already satisfied even though I do not know what to do with it. Without further ado, while I am still having an adrenaline rush, I checked on the Epic grade bottom wear.

[Sky's Strider Greaves]
Grade: Epic
Durability: 420/420
Defence: 42
*Agility +30
*Evasion +18.5%
*Equip: Acquire Final Spurt
-Increase Movement Speed and Attack Speed by 50% for 10 seconds. When the duration ends, the player will be in Sluggish state.
"Once equipped by the fastest man alive in Astrea, no one was able to come closer to Sky when he raced anyone and anywhere he wants. These greaves are what he wore in his early days before he became a legend, making it one of the few evidence he left before disappearing completely in this world."
Condition of use: Level 40 – Agility 100
"There it is! An item perfect for me."
Every aspect of these greaves was amazing for me in every way possible. Nothing I can complain about except the fact it was this item was clearly for running away. Although even with that, I do not care. It is the perfect fit for me whose playstyle depends on not being hit as a condition for winning the fight.
[Final Spurt[ is an amazing life-saving skill or better I say, a type of berserk skill. Not only it was amazing for retreating, but it can also surprise enemies and change the tide of battle if I ever need to fight players later on.
I do not know what Sluggish state is and for some reason, I cannot expand for more details, but I can tell it is not good. I should experiment later on. Too bad I cannot equip it yet.
[I should be there in ten minutes]
[Same place where we met Richest Asian the first time]
There was nothing to do after drooling over the items I picked up. Running alone for one hour made me bored that I spent all the time messaging Aria and Michelle or browsing the NWF.
When I found nothing interesting, I went to MonoTube to watch some New World stuff. Thankfully, watching videos on the internet is a feature they added in this game by doing a simple click or else I will be bored to death before I can reach the city.

One that really caught my attention was a video showing Mystic Xiye, the number 1 in the world ranking, soloing a gigantic scorpion. She was using greatsword like Michelle but compared to her, Michelle looks like a child swinging her sword randomly.
Every hit was precise, and every move has its purpose. She was able to dodge everything. Even moments when it seems like it would be impossible to avoid within my capabilities, look very easy for her.
What is more terrifying is that I doubt her agility or dexterity is even that high to aid her since the damage of her strikes were beyond normal. It was pure reaction time she was able to finish the scorpion without any scratch.
"So you can actually fight like that. I wonder if she's a famous fighter in the real world."
While I was amazed by the highlights I was watching, I finally saw the dazzling city lights radiating under the night sky. People were laughing or battling along the way while I was too focused on Mystic Xiye's videos to even noticed I was already near my destination.
I made sure to do the maintenance routine first before meeting up at the Moonlight fountain. This time it was not difficult to look for them because they were literally at the same spot where we first met.
"You're late, Cherry. You've got some explaining to do. Our leader here is already fuming."
"We've only been here for five minutes."
Richest Asian said, contradicting Michelle's statement. Looks like I am not that late.
"Geez, you don't know how to joke around, can you? Anyway, since we are all here, you can share it now right, Guild Leader?"
"I'll get right to the point-- I have gathered enough gold to buy us a guild base, or in this case, a guild room. This is where guild activity really begins. I have not bought it yet because I want your opinions on this."
"Wait, what? A guild base, since when did this game had guild base?"
Aria was the first one to react just seconds after Richest Asian began explaining.
"It's been there since the guild has been introduced-- I see… You have not yet visited the Guild Hall and you care little about learning anything relating to guilds."
"Ah~"
"That's fine by me. It means your focus in levelling up which is good for our guild."
Thank goodness he interpreted it that way. Aria also took the blame for us since she is the only one talking, so Michelle and I can have a pass and let him think we knew about it beforehand and care about the guild, hypothetically.
But I think he knows and accepts that the Officers he chose were focusing on getting stronger rather than organizing the guild.
"Let me change the topic for a moment. What happened to both of you and your levels dropped by one after looking good for a while? Miss Cherry Winter here meanwhile has jumped straight to level 24 in a day. If I am not mistaken, all three of you should be at the same party together."
"Do we really need to share? Kind of embarrassing."
"Yes. I want some bit of transparency between the higher members of this guild and I hope we can be more informal with each other. From my guess, someone should have killed you right?"
"That's the gist of it for us, but Cherry here will explain what happened because I also want to know what the hell did you do Cherry."
'This idiot…'
I can see Richest Asian's good intentions in his words even with a poker face. Meanwhile, I threw a hateful glare towards Aria for passing the baton, but she only replied with a huge grin. Although I do have some explaining to do.

Hunters of the Night
Parmasus was young boy, living with his father and mother. His father was abusive and would would beat both him and his mother, but one day, he went overboard. As Parmasus witnessed his mothers death, he saw only one choice. Run! Eventually, he managed to escape the city, but not without a fatal farewell gift from his father. Then he met Palazar, the vampire, who showed him salvation, and turned him into a vampire. _________________________________________________________________________________________ Hello there. This is my second series, also about vampires. I've always been fascinated with vampires, since childhood, so I decided to write a few different, unique books about them. My first book, Rise of the Vampires is about just that, and how the progenitor rises to power in a world of mixed High Fantasy, and Xianxia. This book however, is different, again. This is more traditional, in the sense that it isn't high fantasy, but closer to low fantasy. It begins in a time period similar to Ancient Greece, but it will travel through time, showing various ages. The vampire world will be similar to the World of Darkness, or Vampire the Masquerade. It's not a female romance book, as it will have action and stuff. But yeah, the books will follow Parmasus as he lives through the ages, becoming older and stronger. Also Rated 18+ for violence, gore, harsh language, explicit sex, etc.
8 168Selfishness can be so rewarding
His father once told him "Son,men who do good things get good things." Since that day Nox Michael became the most selfish person in the world.Helping people,volunteering,recycling and everything he could do to get good karma.All to get what he wanted. So when he died saving someone he thought he would go straight to heaven.What happened was so much better. Becoming an overpowered being and going to another dimension that is basically a xianxia. "This is awesome!Normally the objective is to become the strongest,get revenge,get a harem and enjoy life.I'm already the best and nobody killed my family sooooo all I need is my harem then I can enjoy life by wrecking the bad guys and messing with people.Being selfish is the best thing ever!"
8 192The FPD (Fart Police Department)
The FPD (Fart Police Department) The world’s norms and ethics have drastically shifted for the worse after an uncontrollable flatus outbreak absorbed the world’s inhabitant, causing major depopulation on a global scale. Conversely, to remedy the spread of this vulgar contagion, the Societal Gods who were partially indirectly responsible for causing the outbreak, implemented certain strict measures for the servile humans to follow. These strict policies were commonly known to the general public as Fart Commandments. Thou shall not relieve themselves in public without following the proper guided measures; thou shall not relieve themselves in private without adhering to the strict guidelines; each new-born and younglings should be taken to the nearest medical facility regularly for inoculation; loose bottoms shall not be tolerated at any governing venues and face-masks should always be worn appropriately. Failure to adhere to the above commandments would result in a mandatory life sentence without a court appeal or probation unless they are of influential births and have authoritative backers. In this twisted society which had been established today a model young female who adhered to the strict policies all of her life without questioning, accidentally broke one of the Fart Commandments and found herself entangled with a rebellious group of uncouth individuals who opposed the Societal Gods. To regain her innocence and social standing among the civil society, this young lady dared challenge the Societal God’s ruling by utilizing the absolute thing that they detested the most which were the destructive vapours of her flatus. Certainly, she will suffer the excruciating consequences of defying her lords’ commandments.
