Chapter 5: Reaper

“System updating. User has hit Lv 50. Tutorial has started.

Every 50 levels, the user can opt to gain a class. Classes provide stat boost and ability upgrades. There are also hidden classes that requires certain requirements to be fulfilled. Class changes can be started anywhere. First open menu, then say class change. It’s very simple.

Good luck.” {monotone voice}

I quickly open my menu and checked the classes that I could choose from.

Reaper<>

Description: Use the souls of fallen victims to empower your attacks.

Gains soul slasher.

Gains 20 natural strength and speed but lowers the scaling of ability stat by half.

Dragon slayer

Description: Use the power of the dragons to burn and decimate your targets.

Gains 20 strength. Learns flame breath. Unable to survive in extremely cold environments. Chances of decreased stats in cold weather. Gains Dragon slash.

Lich

Description: Command the dead to maul your enemies.

Gains 20 ability and Magic Defense. Gains the ability to summon low level skeletons.

I thought long and hard, but I couldn’t seem to figure out what would be the best class. The reaper and lich classes are very powerful, but low-level skeleton won’t be able to stop a baby dragon.

Dragon slayer sounds like a good class, but I don’t want to die from being unable to move in cold weather. Kind of unfortunate that it comes with such a heavy stat destroyer.

I decided that the only logical choice would be the reaper class.

Would u like to confirm the reaper class?

Yes

Death touch Lv2

Siphoning grasp Lv4

I still had 1 more skill point left.

My stats were coming along very nicely.

At this moment I remembered that I had 10 unopened chests. I hadn’t forgotten about the chest. Instead of opening them 1 by 1, I clicked the open 10x button.

My inventory flickered with golden light. When the light died down, 10 new items were in my inventory.

6 out of 10 items were the unmistakable potion that appeared in every video game about dungeons. 3 out of the remaining 4 was garbage. It had the title garbage. It wasn’t even given a proper name. The last item was a spectacular blade.

I wasn’t going to overestimate my abilities by trying to fight dragons with a sword, because I knew nothing about how to wield or use a sword.

I slowly got up from the ground. The ground wasn’t in a better situation than I was. The ground was tore up and bloody from the dying dragon.

There wasn’t much to look at, so I left the area to rest. The other baby dragon was hiding out in a cave not too far from here.

After resting on a tree for 30 minutes, I got up and proceed to were the other baby dragon was hiding out. The remaining rats were guarding the entrance of the cave.

I quickly sniped the 6 rats before they could figure out what happened. It wasn’t very hard since I was the same level with them. The cave seemed like a bad place to fight a baby dragon. The problem is that I have nothing to draw it out with.

Suddenly, I had a very nefarious idea. Since I had infinite mana, that means I could fire death bolts all day with out running out of mana.

I spent the next 20 minutes shooting Death bolts into the cave before the notification rang that the dragon had been slayed. I didn’t receive anything from killing this dragon.

“Main boss has spawned.

Mega dragon has spawned.

Proceed with caution.” {Monotone voice}

I was excited to fight my first boss monster, but it made me dejected when I found out that the monster was on the other side of the map.

What made me even sadder was that it was covering that distance quickly. I barely had any time to rest before the dragon was right in front of me.

I fired my death bolts nonstop at the dragon, but they seem to have no effect even when I hit him.

“Hmmmm. How do I kill it then?” {Rex}

That was a Lv 180 dragon that could kill me by stepping on me. The only thing that thrilled me was that the dragon wasn’t a fire breathing one.

I ran into the cave that hosted the previous baby dragon.

I checked my inventory for anything that could be useful when I came upon a stunning description of the spectacular sword.

Spectacular sword

Has extra penetration against dragons.

Any monster that touches the blade will be poisoned, dealing a percentage of dmg. Poison effect can be stacked.

I quickly equipped the Spectacular sword.

The sword was golden and was about 2 feet long with a pointed tip. It gleamed in its own, even when I’m inside this dark cave.

I waited patiently until the dragon was right outside the cave.

I ran outside and slashed its front left leg and ran under it.

The dragon wailed loudly as it tried to get away. I used my sword again to stab into it. The dragon quickly rose up, dragging me and the sword with it.

It attempted to throw me off by doing elaborate sky tricks. The dragon was unsuccessful, but the wind was slowly killing me.

I knew I would be dead long before the poison killed it. I started using my siphoning grasp to recover my health. This was a lot faster than the poison. The changes in the dragon were very visible after I started draining it, and after 30 minutes it finally fell from the air and died.

I was elated on how easy that was.
