《Hero? I'm assassin, but that's the same right?》Chapter 10. I'm Level 10... what's a token by the way?

Advertisement

So... getting his ass handled to him... nearly in literal sense... Justice Jerk was now getting treatment... and oh how I'm not envious... Really that magister... hell... I dunno... scary? But he knows what he do.

Julius: “Kuro... do you want something?” oh and I'm here... waiting for the treatment... you see that status never shows your real stats... it just shows you what they basically are... and with my [Irradiated Debuff] I got them lower by 30%! Except health, mana and stamina... but health regeneration was much slower... not like I got injured though...

Pyro: “Um yeah... I got this annoying debuff... [Irradiated], and it weakens me... not that seriously though, but still quite annoying.” He looks agitated... ever saw over 130 kg 190 cm bald and bearded old man? In some sort of brown-gold robes? Yep that's Magister Julius. Slightly obese, but quite energetic. And that lump of meat looking at me like dog... at meat...

Julius: “[Irradiated]? Haven't heard about it, but... let's try holy magic... [***** Cleanse]” oh those ***** are actually some sort of [klakjojaw] whatever that means... can't seem to understand. Oh I feel...

Pyro: “What the hell was that?” I feel like some moron hit me with a fire brand... not that painful, but annoying...

Julius: “... Strange... really strange... say... you're not a demon are you?” What?

Pyro: “Nope not a demon, imp or some else shit... though my affinity with holy element is negative.”

Julius: “Negative? I... now that you talk about it... Ozelot said about a hero with negative holy attribute...” Ozelot? That's magic teacher?

Pyro: “That old geezer... well yeah... exceptional fire affinity and really bad holy... what are affinities used for by the way?” he looks... oh shit... I know that look.

Julius: “Well... let's start with basics...” … damn...

Julius: “-and so as you understand the Goddess of Life is-” blah-blah-blah... over 3 hours! 3 hours of those shit about gods and other stuff... and I asked about affinity! But he told me about it... so Masteries are actually make it easier to use, less mana cost and casting time, while affinity gives slight resistance and increase in power, while also increasing learning speed of corresponding mastery... And my Holy affinity is negative, so even healing spells will damage me... seems like being Homunculus has some drawbacks... at least I increased my life affinity... would be bad if I couldn't use [Heal]... oh and those spells... are actually a newbie thing... don't know why they use it though...

Pyro: “Yes thank you...” he finally stopped blabbing about gods...

Julius: “It's so good to talk with someone interested in the field... too bad you can't learn Holy magic.” THANK GODS I can't.

Pyro: “Yeah... well at least I know my weakness...” it's not bad though... most spells are interchangable.

Julius: “I will pray for you...”

Pyro: “Better not... I don't know if prayers will give me some debuff... besides I never was religious. Person should help himself, not helped by divine intervention.”

Julius: “But some can only pray.”

Pyro: “It's 'cause they're weak. They don't want to become strong, so they choose some sort of 'easy' way. And that is not easy... the easiest way is death, but seeing your world even it stops being easy...”

Julius: “Oh yes... necromancers... they are a scourge of this world, besides monsters and demons of course.”

Pyro: “Nope it's undead. Necros are quite funny... they are so romantic... have you heard of a story where one human became a lich to protect his love?”

Julius: “No, what happened?”

Pyro: “Couldn't protect, she got killed, and later was ressurected by him... and she destroyed some country... and then lived happily ever after... until some prick with giant sword killed her and so necromancer destroyed the world in his anger.”

Julius: “... What's romantic about it?”

Pyro: “Oh... you haven't heard then? The man loved his betrothed to such extent that couldn't live without her... oh and that prick was actually their great grandson or something... well relative...”

Julius: “... that's... sad...”

Pyro: “Not really... they all met some god that laughed his ass off in the end.” Hey it's bullshit, but MY bullshit. “Anyway I gotta go, see you later.”

Julius: “Take care.”

And I closed the door... and ran as fast as I could... I think I left some flaming trail in my wake...

So... here I am... looking for job in adventurer guild... and I got quite interesting mission, {investigate the old mine}. And guess what?

Investigate the abandoned mine.

Difficulty: D

Reward: 3 gold, random assigned gear.

Abandoned mine situated to the south-west of capital become supposed den of monsters and/or thieves. Investigate it and report back.

Why is it interesting... well... {random gear} is actually quite promising... so... off we go!

… guess who's there? Nope not monsters or some bandits... but some of the arachnees... cute!

Arachnee 1: “We've been found out...” some of them... eh don't care.

Arachnee 2“Even if we kill him they will send more... we need to leave.” … steady...

Arachnee 3“Why does he look at us?” and grope!

Arachnee 4“KYA!!!” Hah! And they can try to kill me all they want! Eh... actually that remote control golem... let's hear it say...

Golem: “CUTE. SPIDER! WANT. CUDDLE! BE. MY. FRIEND!” yeah I know doesn't look like much, but you forget about the arachnees are like humans in height, while that thing is over 3 meters... and is made of darkness...

Seriously... you could cuddle them by yourself.

Why? I got Aeshia...

You're not so dense, are you?

I say that Nova is just nervous!

Right...

Besides... I think Aeshia was acting strange...

Was it the droll that make you notice?

Eh? What droll?

… How can you be so... dense...

I'm not... I'm aware of Aeshia's feelings...

At least you aren't completely dense...

… Anyway let's joke a bit more...

So... thirty minutes and five sweaty arachnees later... not in that sense... they tried to outrun the golem, but... weren't successful... So I, as a gentelman I am... asked them about Aeshia... after I trolled them a bit...

Royal Arachnee: “How do you know of her? Where is she?! ANSWER ME!!!” so... ten pupils... another royal?

Pyro: “Royal? *Sigh*... I sent her over to your clan with my... eh... companions?”

Royal Arachnee: “CLAN?! WHAT DID YOU DO TO HER?!” seriously?

Pyro: “Tickled... do you know that arachnees are actually very sensitive-”

Royal Arachnee: “NO! DON'T!”

Pyro: “Behind their ears...”

Royal Arachnee: “... WHAT?!”

Pyro: “... or was it only her? Eh... whatever...” Seriously she's so cute... purple eyes and white hair... good combo!

Royal Arachnee: “You... is it a joke for you?”

Pyro: “Nope! I just bought her, and offered her help, in exchange for creating new order... clan... whatever you call it...”

Arachnee 2?: “... Clan... did she betray us...” one of other arachnees asked... why do I comment it though?

Pyro: “Not really... I just want to recreate my old clan, but for it I need... things... living things... eh... persons? People? Don't care about race though. So I offered to help her clan, in exchange for... help?”

Royal Arachnee: “... Why do you ask? It's you who should know for sure.” Oh come on princess...

Pyro: “Well... I'm actually quite bad at all this diplomacy... not traps or tactics though...” not like I'm good either...

Royal Arachnee: “... What do you want?”

Pyro: “Nope, you say it...”

Royal Arachnee: “Release us.”

Pyro: “Anything else?”

Royal Arachnee: “... we need to save our sisters from the humans...”

Pyro: “... Eh... do you know where are they?”

Royal Arachnee: “... supposedly in slums...” okay... let's release them.

Pyro: “Sure... so check out slums...”

Royal Arachnee: “... you... you won't-”

Pyro: “Won't what exactly? I alredy have... now that I think about it... want to become my girlfriend?”

*Chirk*

… there were some grasshoppers?

Royal Arachnee: “... I...”

Dude... you've done it again...

What?

Why did you put so much points in Charisma anyway?

I like funny reactions?

… Either you like to troll, or you like act as dense MC...

Why not both?

So... I am now standing in the slums and someone-

Robber: “Your money or your life!” -wants to rob me.

Pyro: “I'll rake both of yours!” and so... I burned everything in 15 meter radius... now that I think about it... it was a bad call...

Citizen: “FIRE! FIRE!” eh... not like I have anything to do with it, am I?

[DING]

… I'm looking for arachnees...

[DING]

… Shut up... I'm looking for anyone with arachnees...

[DING]

… For fucks sake! It's annoying! I can't find those arachnees...

[DING]

… eh? What's token?

Tokens are used for buying new skills and/or items.

Tokens can be exchanged to points and vice-versa.

Amount of unallocated points for common token 20, uncommon 100, rare 500, unique 5000, Legendary 50000.

… Eh? Polymath is a unique type job?

*Sigh* not really...

It costs as a legendary token, but actually it can't be evaluated. Polymath can't be bought outside of the tenth level, meaning if you choose another class you won't be able to get Polymath later. Same goes for those that cover 5 and more jobs, like necromancer.

Necromancer?

The one that costs 1000 points... it has mage, summoner, puppeteer, rogue and ranger jobs... I thought it was appropriate for you.

… Polymath is better, right?

Yes...

And why did you-

I was depressed...

I had not enough information on the classes because of [Basic Knowledge], so I thought that-

Yeah... well everything is good, no? So... what can I buy with token?

Will be quite good skill [Sonar]. Will help you locate living objects. Radius depends on Perception.

Good... I'll take it... hey... why does it looks like I'm MC?

Your luck is 100, so maybe because of it.

Oh... so... [Sonar]...

Hey... what's the... I can see all the slums? Oh and there are tight group underground... slaves? Will go there...

HAH!!! I found a harem of monster girls! There are lamia, harpy, naga, arachnee, cyclop, dryad and ceph... that's a girl, right? Others can be discerned by bust... except lamia girl... she's flat...

Pyro: “OK ladies! Um... I was actually asked to save arachnees, but others are welcome too...”

Some monste... khm... girl: “... who are you?” eh? oh... my equipment... I casted quite a good illusion, no? Let's leave it like that... I plan on killing quite a lot of humans on the way out, so no need for the identity.

Pyro: “... Psycho... now with the introduction over I would suggest you to move out, and arm yourself... but first let's get those shackles off...” I mean it's quite stupid to run around in order to find some key, which is likely were on some idiot I 'accidentally' evaporated. Blood+Fire=Blood Boil!

And... well you can guess the rest... I leveled up, saved the day, and stole quite a sum... which was immediately converted into points... like I need some gold when I can have everything for free...
