《THE OTHER LIFE OF ACP》THE OTHER LIFE OF ACP - Chapter 18 : Rank up Spree!
Advertisement
I woke up.
I looked around and i saw that i was not in an inn, but sleeping at Catherine's house. get out of bed, and went outside the room, i checked up on Catherine and she was asleep. i went downstairs, to see two grown men sleeping together on the floor.
"Um... Why are you guys sleeping on the floor?" [Henry]
"Hmm?*Yawn*" [Rigil]
"There's a bed right there!" [Henry]
"AH! Master!" [Elgir]
They quickly rose from the floor and stood up still.
"I am sorry master." [Elgir]
"Yes, we are deeply sorry." [Rigil]
"You guys..." [Henry]
Stop calling me Master. it feels... Weird.
"Stop calling me master." [Henry]
"That is impossible." [Rigil]
"And why is that?" [Henry]
"..." [Rigil]
"I thought so." [Henry]
"Call me Henry from this forward." [Henry]
"Yes, Mas-" [Elgir]
"..." [Henry]
"He-Henry." [Elgir]
I walk to the kitchen, only to see a dishes everywhere, pitchers, cups, plates, just everywhere. i thought she would be a little more clean.
"Guess i should clean up. it's the least i could do." [Henry]
I used cleaning magic to clean all of the dirt from the plates, walls, floor, pitchers, and etc. it took me about 10 minutes.
i decided to go outside and explore the capital a bit. i saw stands selling fruits, vegetables, and meat. stores that would sell all kinds of goods. then i smelled something delicious, something that could be only from "Food wars!"
I entered the [Jack & Jill] restaurant and found it was very busy. waiters were running from one table to another, chefs were cooking fast, and customers getting angry.the smell was coming from this steak that looked like it was gold. but it was about to get eaten, i just said to myself to just order another one.

So i kept walking and as always, the stare! but i brushed it off, there's no need to get angry from staring. i sat down and waited. and waited. and waited.
1 hour later...
"May i take your order?" [Waiter]
F*cking finally! if i had to wait another hour, i would've just tore down the building.
"About an hour ago, a guy was eating a steak that looked like it was golden, can i have that?" [Henry]
"Oh, i'm terribly sorry sir, but we already sold the last steak." [Waiter]
I waited 1 hour, only to be told it was all out. that's it, f*ck you! f*ck all of you! instead of destroying it, i'll put a curse on the food. an even worse fate.
setCurse(Jack & Jill Food) {
Food = Disgusting
} |
(AN: Again, not actual coding language.)
"Bye bi*ches!" [Henry]
"Hm?" [Waiter]
I leave the restaurant smiling like you did something evil and you liked it. it was still noon and i had time. so i thought i would do a fast quest from the adventurer's guild. i enter the guild, only to be stared, but this stare is different, it's not the usual stare i'm used too, stop it. trying to ignore the stares, i walked towards to Asila.
"Good afternoon, Asila." [Henry]
"Ah! Henry Black is it?" [Asila]
"Yes, why?" [Henry]
"The ear you have submitted seems to be genuine, while the the first submission was a fake, as you said. Mr. Cory Gliffit will be punished and demoted for this."
"And?" [Henry]
"Here is the 20 gold coins and you have received 50 GP." [Asila]
"Congratulations Henry, you have been promoted from F to E rank. you now have 35 GP remaining." [Asila]

Yes! rank up! new quests! okay, I've decided to do a rank up spree. i didn't even bother to look at the other quests, just went straight to the hardest.
Rank requirement: E
Mission: hunt down an Ogre
Rewards:
50 silver coins
30 GP
Okay, let's do this on, let's go!
I ran outside and went straight to the gate, after a good minute of running, i found an ogre. it looked the same when Elgir completely destroyed a group of them. so unsheathed my sword, and just used my speed to avoid getting hit. and about 3 seconds after the battle started, i sliced of his head. i took an ear, and searched for more ogres in the area. i checked the mini-map, and found a red dot on screen. i went to it, and it was an ogre. i sliced of his head, and counted my GP.
"I have 35, and i got 60 from this, so.. i have.. 95 GP, 5 more points!" [Henry]
You know where this is going right? he found another ogre, and then killed it. now he has 125 GP. he went back to Adventurer's guild, and placed the 3 ogre ears on the counter.
"And this is?" [Asila]
"3 ogre ears." [Henry]
"Okay. please wait." [Asila]
5 minutes later...
"Thank you for waiting. we have confirmed that the ogre ears are genuine, and here is 150 silver coins. and you have received 90 GP." [Asila]
"And Congratulations Again! you have been promoted from E to D rank. you have 25 GP remaining." [Asila]
"Thank you." [Henry]
Yes! rank up! now let's see the hardest one for D rank...
Rank requirement: D
Mission: hunt down a berserker ogre
Rewards:
75 silver coins
40 GP
Okay, lets go!
Instead of running, i completely forgot i could fly. so after exiting the capital, i flew and searched for a berserker ogre.
5 minutes later...
after a good 5 minutes of searching, i finally found one. it's just an ogre with armor and a skill. it was with a group of ogres, about 5 ogres, including him. this time, i'm not going to use a sword, but my magic. i made a fireball the size of an exercise ball, and this thing has 100 MP points in it. i threw it a them and the fireball completely destroyed them. except the berserker ogre. it still has half of it's HP left. i then tried something different. something i wanted to try since the beginning.
giveHenryBlack Pump Shotgun 1 100
giveHenryBlack Pump Shotgun Ammo 100 100|
f*ck yeah. a shotgun! yes! i load the shotgun with ammo, and pointed it at the berserker ogre. when the berserker ogre charged at me, i pulled the trigger. the bullets spread hitting the armor, but some of it struck on his head, the charge was cancelled by the the bullet. he now has 1/4 of his health left remaining.
I decided to end this quickly and just used my sword and i sliced his armor and body in half. i took the ear and a piece of it's armor, and the 4 other ears of the other ogres. i flew back to the city, and i noticed something while i was flying....
