Dark Storm in System World
You need to work hard in life to lighten your load in the future. On the Holy Continent you will find magnificent structures made of quarts and mixed with gold. Players do their own thing, collect or kill based on their quest. As they continued to work as well as on other continents, they saw a large transparent blue screen at the top of each city.

Congratulations to Clint21 who completed the impossible hidden quest. He is the first player who completed such quest in the world.
Many were amazed and others were envious.
“Oh my...He is so lucky. Is he famous?”
“I just heard his name. It is rare for an unknown player to get such an achievement.”
“Clint21? I do not know him but I will take revenge because he preceded me in getting that achievement.”
“Do you know how he achieved that achievement?”
“Don’t tell it because that is a hidden quest. I could complete that even if you didn’t say so.”
“You’ll never ever complete that quest men. You’ll never ever try it even once.”
“How did you say so?”
“Because that quest is exclusive only by level 1 player.”
“What!? It was so easy then! How it is hard!?”
“The quest is to kill 50 monsters at level 1.”
“WHAT!?”
“Killing 50 monsters while at level 1 is impossible!”
“Indeed! As I recall, I killed the wolf five times and leveled up.”
“How did he kill those monsters without receiving any experience?”
The conversations of the issue with Clint from the players are in the headlines and it has even been reported on all television.
‘Some Good Restaurant’
Clint sat down as he waited for his friend. In the restaurant he entered, there was a television and he could watch the current events in the game. He saw three players on television who are currently recognized as the best players in System World.
That woman's username is Aishley. She was a dealer as a magician. Let's see how strong she is.
He searched the game's search panel and found a user name Aishley.

Her intelligence is pretty high. According to Luke, famous players like her started playing a year later. It means that I still have a year to get to that level. The process of strengthening is gradual but whether your level is low or high, if you find a way to become famous and rich, you will see an opportunity like I did. So far I have found a tiny hole for me to shine but I will not show up for now because I'm still weak.
While watching, his friend Luke arrived and greeted him warmly.
Luke: Bro! I’m here!
Clint: Nice Bro! Let's go order some food.
Luke: G! (Take note: G is a short term for ‘Game’ which means let’s do it)
As they ate they talked about the game.
Luke: Bro, are you the Clint21 in the game?
Clint: Yes bro, did you see the impossible hidden quest I completed?
Luke: It is true! You're great bro. Explain to me how you did that.
Clint: You can only do that if you started on the Continent of Calamity.
Luke: What!? I told you not to start there because you would have a hard time. Then what happened?
Clint: It’s very difficult indeed. My first fight was a level 6 puppet with 500 health and 25 damage.
Luke: Oh! Did you kill that monster?
Clint: Yeah! Using all the techniques that I learned when I was a kid.
Luke: You’re so awesome, it’s possible for you to defeat that monster since you’ve experienced and learned swordsmanship. Fighting that monster in level 1 state is too difficult for a novice like us that doesn’t know how to fight.
Clint: But you are used to it now, right?
Luke: Yeah, it’s been a long time playing this game. Now what’s your plan now? What level are you now?
Clint: I have not finished the tutorial and now I am level 2.
Luke: Are you at level 2? How many days have you been playing? If you have been playing started when you entered the VR machine, you should be at levels 9 to 14 five days from now.
Clint: Actually, I did that, I played almost 5 days straight without eating and sleeping. Hahaha.
Luke: (Shocked) what the heck bro!? Are you trying to kill yourself!? After playing for five days, why are you still level 2? And why were you able to kill 50 monsters at level 1? I mean that’s possible for you but it’s impossible to kill them at level 1 since they are level 6 monsters. If you fight a monster that is even higher level than you, you can level up to two or three times.
Luke: Plus! THAT MONSTER IS VERY STRONG! The boss level 8 bandit king only has 450 Health and 22 Damage and it can kill at least 3 level 5 novice players at once. Bro, I see how good you are at this game. You can join my guild if you want bro.
Clint: Your guild?
Luke: I’m a guild master and I built that guild. Thus that’s my guild.
Clint: Wow you’re a Guild Master? That’s pretty good. How many members do you have bro?
Luke: Right now, I have 7 members.
Clint: Hmmm...I really intend not to join any guild because there are things I have to do that I can no longer do because of the restrictions.
Luke: Don’t worry bro, you are still free. I just formed a guild because I might find a chance to earn a lot. If there is a big event, you can still decline to join us from raiding.
Clint: If so, why do you want to invite me bro?
Luke: When you joined the guild, you can increase the guild points of the guild even if you are the only one participating in the dungeon. When you get an achievement like before, the system will give us a lot of guild points. You can solo play even you enter my guild. You can also leave my guild if you are uncomfortable.
Clint: Guild points, as you told me before, are one of the reasons why a guild is known. The more guild points, the more money the system will give you. Because I also want to get rich and you are my friend, go ahead and invite me to your guild bro.
Unauthorized duplication: this tale has been taken without consent. Report sightings.
Luke: Nice! That’s my bro! Since I am level 76 and you joined the guild, do you want to ask me for something? The one that should not be heavy in my pocket.
Clint: There is and it looks like you can buy it at your level.
Luke: G! Ask me.
After eating and talking, they immediately went home. When Clint got home he went straight upstairs, got dressed and went to bed early.
‘6:00 am in the morning’
When the alarm clock rang, he woke up immediately. He stood up and went out to exercise. Afterwards, he bathed, ate and went inside the VR machine.

You cannot return to the Continent of Calamity if you died there and transported to another continent. Luke tried to cross over to my place but he could not get in. It means, I only have one life on this continent and if I wasted it, I would never be able to return to this continent forever.

You have been summoned to your previous location.
My opponents are still the same, 5 Level 20 and 22 undead monsters. 4 melee-type monsters and 1 undead spell caster. Let’s check my current status.

Right now I can kill them with the item Luke gave me.
He saw the black color shining on the undead mage staff. Before Clint could walk, the undead mage released a destructive black fire towards him.
“Curse Fire”
“Light Dash...dodge...BOOM!”
Clint could still hear the sound of the blazing fire as he dodged it.
"BURN"
The four skeleton warriors suddenly blocked him and he saw the undead mage cast a spell again. Just before the undead mage threw the curse fire, Clint pulled out the item Luke had given him in his inventory and threw it on the floor he was stepping on.
Let’s try this new strategy! Smoke Bomb!
Rarity: Common Weight: Very Low
Durability: 1 use only
Equipped: None
Effect: Summon a smoke at short distance. The smoke spread at short range (radius). Assassin can able to see all the unit within the smoke. Last in 1 minute.
Required: Assassin only.
Smoke came out at the small area around him and the four skeleton warriors were caught in the smoke. The undead mage threw the curse fire but it just passed through the thick smoke and hit the wall.
“Whoosp...BOOM!”
The undead mage cannot cast a spell because he cannot see the player inside the smoke. He could only see the lights flashing inside and the sound of a sword hitting the iron.
“Slash...Ting...double slash...ting...ting...slash...triple slash”
After a minute the smoke disappeared but the undead mage saw that the player was no longer in the place where the smoke came out. He was shocked when he raised his head and he saw Clint in the air with his rising sword.
“Slash...sudden strike...triple slash...crit”
The undead mage could do nothing from of the speed of his sword that swings and hit every second of his dead body. It did nothing until his health dropped to zero.

Before the smoke cleared, I immediately jumped up and used a light dash to lift myself into the air. And there, I successfully killed the undead mage with no injuries. The plan was effectively completed. I will do this until I can kill a hundred of monsters again.
Clint slowly destroys each wave through the plan he uses over and over again. He throws the smoke bomb when he is surrounded by skeleton warriors. He will kill it in the thick smoke and make a way to kill the undead mage where it is currently easy for him.
‘After 2 days and 1 hour’
The basement was filled with broken bones and rusty irons as much as he kill a bunch of undead.
This is another day for me. Killing another 100 undead was the reason for my immediate rise in just one week. I received 300 points to my status. Even though I am only level 2, the strength of my power is also equal to that username Aishley.
He saw the notification at the top of his interface. He pressed it and a new screen appeared in front of him.
Hmm? A notification?

Lich Servant – Royal Captain
Level: 30 Type: Undead
Health: 3325 Damage: 130
7 level 30 giant undead monsters. Their size is huge. The axe they hold is half the size of their body. It is difficult to shield their weapons especially if they use force on their large bodies. They can just easily push me with their body strength. Let’s throw some smoke bomb to avoid their attacks while I’m thinking of how to deal with them.
“Whooss”
The thick smokes spread around Clint. As he thought deeply he was surprised by what happened next. Strong winds blew across the area. With the force of the wind Clint knocked down and lost the smoke he had made.
What happened?
(Screen Notification)
Your enemy used a [Power Swing] skill that creates strong wind. The smoke immediately disappear.
My smoke bomb is useless from them ah. Since they do not have a range-type ally, I can kill them in their size. With their freaking size, I expect that they move slower than the usual monsters I fought.
“AHHH!” The undead shouted out loudly and they raised their weapons.
(Screen Notification)
Your enemy used a [Battle Taunt] skill. Increase 15 armor to all undead.
They all used skill. If 15 armor each of all the undead and seven of them, they have 105 armor each. They are easy to kill but it looks like the fight will end not short since they had too much armor.
Because Clint's agility magnificent agility, his is running towards the undead like a strong wind which will injure them when they are caught in it.
“Slash...crit...slash...double slash...crit...crit...slash...crit”
“ARGH!”
It seems that my critical strike is becoming more frequent because my luck is also high somehow. The attack accelerated so I could hit them three times while they were just preparing for the first attack. But my damage went down because of their armor. But it's okay. What matters is that I shorten their health bar gradually.
“Slash...crit...light dash...crit...sudden strike critical strike!”
“ARGHH!” The shouts of the undead spread throughout the area.
I have something I want to try. I will speed up my movement using the searing dance technique. Okay! Because of my agility and technique, I feel more agile in my body.
It’s not just a body strength that supports my sword. Speed also depends because it carries the physical force to the sword. It is like two walking people who met with same opposite direction. The damage is minimal when they collide. But it is different if they are running. My ancestors had the ability to cut large, thick trees with just one swing of a sword because of the inhumane speed they possessed.
Combining the overwhelming speed of my searing dance and strength of my twin black dragon technique, my ancestors developed a new technique in which it further strengthened the power of the twin black dragon and it was able to destroy two big stones in a single cut, the behemoth destruction technique.
The power discovered by the ancestors who mastered the transcended twin black dragon. At my speed I can perform this technique. This is my first time using it but I’ll definitely do this.
Clint squatted and stretched his leg. He forced his foot to almost see its roots and left the place like the wind. The floor he stepped on was severely damaged by the force of its impact. He cut on of the monster using beyond his present strength.
Clint: AHHHHHH!
“Quintuple Critical Slash!”
With the excessive force of the attack he inflicted an undead pushed straight and crashed into the wall. The health of that monster was cut by half but Clint was exhausted because of the high energy he had consumed.
So far I have learned a new technique. I will not use it for now because it consumes my energy. I need to practice and I will increase my stamina by farming stats here. They are really slow. I need to kill them as soon as possible. But what is this? Hmm? Again?
Clint couldn't believe it when a big blue screen appeared in front of him again while he was in the middle of the fight.

The beginning of becoming rich! I suddenly lost my tiredness. I feel so much joy and excitement killing those undead in front of me.
The helpless and weary Clint, had suddenly power up and released a black aura around him. He smiled at the monsters but it is terrifying with killing intent. When his right foot stepped on the ground, he quickly attack the monster like a lightning.
"ZAP!"
All the hours and days he heard only the lustrous of a sword flashing in the body of the undead and their screams.
"ZING!"
“ARGHH!”
“Double Critical Slash...slash...sudden strike critical strike...crit”

It took a week just to kill 200 monsters. Luke said that a novice players can kill 60 to 75 monsters a day. It extends to 100 if they are professional player. Hahaha! Its a shame that I've only killed 200 monsters. However, I got 900 points in my random stats. I already have 29% fortune where I can get some item to any monster I killed by an average chance. In my battle, I got four items. I will now wear these now. Equip.
The black aura went out and the items he had worn appeared in his body. Items he had worn were transparent at first and its opacity rise until it became fully visible.
Clint: These things are cool!
