CHAPTER 9 – CHARACTER CREATION

CHAPTER 9 – CHARACTER CREATION

Today is the day Skill Online official launch. The DREAMS Team remind to all beta and new player this game is R-18 and many thing will happen because of “we can do anything” in that world. During the hectic situation at that time, the developer decide to give a strict warning to player around the world even it’s just a game make it like a real. They also remind to us we need have a strong mental if anything happened at the same time it happened on that world only. That’s what we need to think.

Even those cases many player still eager to try it out. Oh, the DREAMS Team had plan something behind the scene while in the beta. It’s seem they implement party system where we can create before enter the game. How it’s work? It’s seem first we will be dive to the white room or we can custom our room later. Then for who have a contact will be invited them to the part and transfer to the leader room. By the way each player can visit their friend's room if got invited or ask permission from them. Back to topic, once we party up. We can start the game together and will be at character creation together or to the city team leader choose for that had done their character creation. This only work for Skill Online game only for now so other developer game need to do more work on it.

“Hurry up! The game near start!” while I lost in thought. Ayase shouting from the upstairs. Oh my, she really impatient when she got a new game. Anyway, Me, Yae and Ruli decide to party up together because of some reason we cannot separate. First, the ruin we founded. This really troublesome for three of us especially Ruli. Once she knew the information she hold is too heavy she decided to follow us. Second, this time it’s also Ruli too. She got email from game master to become a second guardian to me. I still remember at that time when Ruli suddenly mad me without I’m not knowing what is happening. “Meiz!!!!! You really done it now!” like that. When I asked her what’s wrong she keep babbling I dragging her to the hell until I burst too.

She seem to realize that I’m really don’t know anything and the chat become so silent. From that I suggest we meet at private place with Yae tag me along too. Arrived at the place I’m already saw the face where Ruli feel so sorry about what is happening and keep apologize. When I go to topic she just show the email she got from game master telling she become assistant to me like Yae. I don’t know how to saw it when there too much mixed feeling in my heart. Want to laugh, angry or sad and others. I just sat down and shake my head. I’m told her that this thing I’m not aware at all.

We totally stuck about 5 minutes thinking why she sudden chosen as my second assistant. I told them to wait here and log out. Then I called Rose. After she hear it out, Rose just smile wryly and told the reason. It’s totally idiot reason for my side “because it’s seem you had a great team work” from game master. I really want to flip the table however I just ended the call and log in back. Told them what I hear then again we had been silent for few minute. So,I decide to just tell her what my job is and she just…well accept it thanks to that game master. All of us got dragged. Lastly, we really planning to team up together but from previous 2 reason make the last one totally not work anymore.

Ayase already in her room when I go to up. Entering my room and pick up the VR console. Wear it up and start the game. Once in the room I had custom. It’s like Japanese house, I like this because the impression from my school visit the old Japanese house style. I open my friend list and invite Ruli and Yae. Altogether we go to Skill Online world. Same like always the game introduce some history of the world. For us who had play beta already knew this. I just still listening for the revision. Yae seem already got boring but got smacked by Ruli who too focus than me.

When it ended, we in character creation and the first thing show up for each of us.

Congratulations! You got the title as “Death Princess” because of most of the player always said about you. Your appearance, and play style had been talking about which good for the title.

Congratulations! You got the title as “Sword Maiden” because of most of the player always said about you. Your appearance, and play style had been talking about which good for the title.

Congratulations! You got the title as “Magic Queen” because of most of the player always said about you. Your appearance, and play style had been talking about which good for the title.

What? All of us just tilted our head to the side. This totally unexpected for me. “Hey, I don’t know how this thing is possible to happened however we already knew from where we got it.” Ruli seem already said what we thinking right now. Yeah, there no mistake about it. All beta player give this nickname from the emergency quest where our fight is too much that attract their attention to us. I look at both of them “It’s seem the developer give rewards to us but…I think there benefit on each title we had. We will check it later on.” Ruli and Yae just nodded and tap “Yes” button. Once I tap on it too, my mind and body freeze for a while because of the message that had been sent to me.

NOTICE !!!

Because of the title you got is Death Princess. Your gender will be limited only for female and hermaphrodite. Also it’s effect you face voice and body so it’s impossible for look like a male even you choose as hermaphrodite. We are apologize for any inconvenient. As for this case happening we decide to give some more skill point and money on your account.

Yae and Ruli already go in the room to custom their character a while ago. I keep reading it again and again to make sure it’s true. I just gave up and sit down on sofa. “Hey, Meiz! How about this look….what? Oi, you face somehow very sad. What happened?” Oh my, she really notice it. Haaaa….the mood is already had been ruin and this also my mistake too! I just slide the message to the Yae. Ruli also go out from the room because she seem notice something weird and come to the side of Yae who reading the message. After few seconds Yae face showing she holding her laugh while Ruli, she look at the message and me for few time. “Pffft, Hahahahahaha. Ouch, Meiz you really had no choice! Hahahaha, Oneechan~” There a vein in my forehead so I pick up something and throw at Yae “Ouch!? Okay, sorry! However think as advantage for your job. I hope you bear with it and let me help you custom your character.” Suddenly my body got shiver “*sigh* I know…..there no other choice and just move forward. Damn that developer.”

Yae just pulling my hand and Ruli holding her laugh but I can clearly saw her body is shaking try to hold it out. “Ruli! You help me too with Meiz character!” Ruli snapped with that statement “Hey! Please care your modesty! This!? Yaaaaa!~” Got pulled forcefully by my cousin. In the end both of us got dragged and trap in this room. For a while I keep my resistant will handle it by myself. However, it’s futile and I just follow her lead to create my character. I demand some condition for her to let me custom it by myself if she really want to help me too. After finish discussing about this, I saw Ruli just crouch hide her face. I can see her ear is already beat red. First, I make my hair long to the waist and it’s color is white. My eye is little bit sharp and round after got complaint that she want my face is cute and the skin is pale. I just change little bit here and decide to use some of facial from my middle school age. She just laugh when saw the face again even there changed little bit. My height is 140 cm because I think this height can help me a lot later on even there is disadvantage too. It’s cannot be helped because I got too absorbed about this too. Lastly about my thing,breast and butt. Once Yae talking about this. Ruli snapped and try to run away but her hair got pulled by Yae and fall to me.

The position is Ruli is on the top of my body while her face really close. She quickly stand up and change her expression to serious face. “Hoo…cute little Meiz.” She patted my head and I totally irritate about it so my hand smacked her head. She hold her head but she try holding her laugh. I wonder where is her shame earlier. I asked both of them go out for the last customization. Yae just shrug her shoulder and accept it. Once they out, I adjust the size of breast and butt to the average size. I don’t know why, my instinct told me don’t increase to the big size. Oh yeah, I choose hermaphrodite thanks to that title I cannot play as male! Lastly, my thing around 17”. You know….as a male you still want your thing is available. I have read some novel gender bender who can adapt it so easily but on my side totally cannot.

Going out of the room and I got showering praise from both of my team party. I just smile and said thank you but in my heart really sad and angry about this happening. For Ruli, her appearance Her appearance is pretty average looking. Her body is quite normal for beautiful teen. Her black hair cascades down, reaching her hips. It hangs freely from her head with twintail style.The reason she just choose that style because it’s easy to move around. She have a blue eye. Her skin is healthy and fair color. Her heights are average. Well, her breast and hips quite attractive and big.

On other side, Yae had appearance cute looking teen. Her pink hai cascades down, reaching her shoulder. It hangs freely from her head. This completely different from real. Well, I still don’t know how Ruli looks like in real so no comment about it. She have pink eye. Her skin is healthy and fair color. Except for her breast and hips….she till keep the same size. By the way, why my female team party had a big breast? I know a man feeling like big breast just I wonder why this happening to me so fast.

Back to topic, we start organize our status. Unfortunately something is really disadvantage for certain player who got title like us. There a few option locked such as class, genders and others. This is what we face it right now. The advantage is our strength increase for the class we choose and title we get during beta. For me…

Death Princess

The person who had no mercy during the fight. She quickly beheaded the enemy head without a single or drop blood on her weapon. Many people saw how her fight which cause fear in their heart.

Death Reaper – Increase more damage when hit enemy vital point specially to their neck which can cause instant death. Except for the enemy who high level from your class or their HP and DEF is high.

Fear Aura – Cause a fear on enemy. The enemy will hesitate to attack you. This skill can active or deactivate

Soul Grasp – Can hold the person soul. If eat the soul, you will gain bonus stat. Bonus stat given is random.

Yae who saw my window said “That’s really suit with your nickname. Really.” Ruli who lost in thought also come to my side “Uwaah, this so nasty.Even I’m already used to it. Still the skill you get really horrible but good.” I just shrugged “You guys compliment or critic me huh?” Both of the just chuckle. I look at both of their window too

Yae …

Magic Queen

Magic perception – Can sense the mana on their surrounding.

Genius Magician – The one who possesses more than 5 magic. Able to activate multiple magic simultaneously. When using magic the amount of magic power consumed decrease, power increase.

“Whoa, this quite cheat too. You really don’t need the skill where you can activate multiple magic simultaneously.” I’m really amaze with it. “Fufun, just look at mine.” Ruli slide her window to me.

Sword Maiden

Heaven-sent Child of Swords – Learning sword skill can achieve easily. The player can equip any sword type as long they train before use it

Strong . Agility – Increase +2 stat AGI for each level up.

Relentless body – Reduce stamina when doing heavy work.

“This truly suitable for Sword Maiden, you just need to worry DEF, END and MIND only. Those [Heaven-sent Child of Swords] really cheat. Seriously, you can equip any type of sword but…you seem more like to dual type.” I look at her and Ruli just nodded many time. “It’s look like our contribution that time completely locked us with this title especially for Meiz…pfftt.” I just glare at her and said “ No more time to waste, it’s time to use our point for skill and stat for our character.” After that only a sound of humming and tapping on the window while we think what the skill we need to choose after the experience in the beta. For our class level already reach 90. It’s totally hard to start leveling when we reach that level. We get about 90 skill point. It feel so less right? This system is little bit weird however the main thing is our “skill” which give more skill point.

If you stumble upon this narrative on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen from Royal Road. Please report it.

There too much skill I need to list but each of it I gain. It’s too much because I like explore it such as reading. Mixing, alchemy craftsmanship and others. Those 4 leveling up so fast when I had a time to do it. Ruli and Yae try to complaint but give up on the half way because I’m to excited on it. In the end total for my skill point is 690 points. Both of them also got 2000 point because of their combat and defence skill is higher than mine. After 20 minutes humming and tapping the windows we finally finished give the point.

This is how my status showed. I will explain the Skill that had chosen by me for my character. For skill that already reach level 10 will category as intermediate skill. There 4 stage for skill, Beginner, intermediate, advance and master. Each skill that reach level 10 will recognize as intermediate skill. Same with when they reach level 20 and after that for the next stage of skill. For Increase Strength, Endurance, Defence, Intelligent, Luck and Charm will increase my stat by 2 for each level. Why I’m choosing this skill to increase my stat? This is just for back up if anything unexpected situation or case happened I can cope with it. This also a trick if enemy does not observe me well and think me as small fry. In other words weak.  Oh, Intelligent stat is because there advance class that had magic which I really need INT later. I want to use some magic too.

For appraisal skill is really important for me. I think most of the player must have this skill. Every item will showing a name, description, status and others. I had encounter some item or monster that cannot be appraise with low-level appraisal. Alchemy and Mixing skill like you guys can know, this is for making potion skill. This is a way to cut my cost during my adventure or trip to another city and as my secondary source of money. Craftmanship skill is for my hobby for the first time I pick up this during beta however this skill make me realize there another possibility on it. Fast learner and reading skill is to make my time spend on it will reduce greatly especially when you train or reading the book or learn a new thing. All language….I think there no need to said it anymore but I don’t willing to learn many thing at the same time with my current job totally press me so much.

Detection, Magic perception and scythe mastery skill is for the combat situation. Detection like it’s name I can detect enemy around 100m with my current level. For level 1 it’s only 10 meters. Magic perception actually for mage however this can apply same like detection. You can detect and know where mana come from. How dense it is, where and as a track too. Scythe mastery….this is much for me because of my Reaper class that specialize in scythe weapon. Lastly, Negotiation skill for my business later on. It’s will hard enough later on if you need spend more money on certain thing where we can get lower price on it. I do not want ruin some one business. Just depend on situation, Negotiation skill will use if needed.In the end I had 414 point left so I just leave it now. Oh I forgot to mention this. I increase some stat in my status. 1 stat increase will cost 2 skill point. You can refer to my earlier status during beta.

Some of her skill is based on what we discuss while choosing the skill. By the way, that STR, DEF, MIND and END way too overpowered. Like I said, we farming too much which end up getting skill point too much. For my case I choose many  skill so my status is not strong as her. I’m not worry about it though because of the other skill I had in Reaper class and my title as Death Princess. “Fufun, I’m more strong than you.” She look proud at me and smirk. I just roll my eye and Yae had finished too. “Hey, look mine too!” She slide her window to me. Oh damn, this stat also overpowered. How can I said…are both of them battle maniacs?

The different is only INT and WIS for Yae. “What’s about the excessive point you guys left?” Both of them look at each other and…”We use that point on the skill where we found is good on us.” Said Yae. Ruli nodded many time agree what she said “Yeah, also there too much skill but I doesn’t want to spend it too much.” I just smile wryly “You already spend too much especially on that stat. It’s for level 30 player you know?” Yes, that stat is for level 30 player without armor or weapon bonus. There no way low-level monster can survive with their attack. Both of them just chuckle “Well, even our party got nickname as the knight actually we want to protect you since that stat really weak.” Also the point left for us is plenty enough as a back up especially for both of them. There too much point still left.

“Maybe but thanks to my class and title make my damage increase so much so there no need to worry on that.” I just shrugged my shoulder. It’s just there another way to increase my stat with my title provide certain skill. After that,Yae open the map “We as beta player can choose a place to start right?” I just nodded and open the Arufair map. There a glowing green dot showing that the place we can choose. There other glowing dot same like I saw earlier on other place. The location is such as the border of each empire city which guarding their border from invasion and monster. Each empire is in a big land continent. Only 2 empire had got sea production so those 2 location become as starting point too. For the kingdom, I saw some kingdom is on another continent so maybe they use sea or air transport for trading and others. “So many place we can choose. I really hate about this part.” Ruli complaint about this when she see the map. True the place we can choose is too much.

“Wait, do you guys realize there a number on the side of those glowing dots?” I just notice it and point my finger towards one of the dots where there number that keep increasing. Both of them try to see few dots on. Their face showing that this number had a meaning behind it. “Huh? That’s mean this number is for how much player on that city right?” said Yae. Ruli nodded many time understand it “I see, so this as indicating show how much player in that city and….oh there a red dots and it’s stopped increasing. That’s mean there a limit too.” We look at the red dots and saw the number already stopped. Each city had 7000 limit but it’s depend on city size too so there a changed on it. “How about we choose a less population of player.This can make our money-making and other job easier. Maybe or not but from the interaction with another player will be less since we already had popular during beta.” I suggest that idea to both of them. Anyway, I will describe how the map look. Simple, it’s world map of earth. The different is the size is more bigger. I had explained it before however this map really made me speechless. Too much emotion I had in this heart and want to critic developer such as “Are you guys lazy?” however when you look at how big than earth. There not so much to complaint on it.

“How about this place? Not so much player choose place.” Ruli pointed her hand on Japan land which it’s name is Drushoya Kingdom. I look at her and ask “Why? May I know the reason?” Ruli put her hand on chin “ I really like Japanese sword and this map really like earth so my instinct said this continent had a sword I want.” Yae also add more “Yeah, me too. Also this area had too less player on it and not other place. This really suit for our party especially for your job.” She pointed it out for me. Ah, that make sense. “Yeah, you’re right.” By tap on one of the small city we can start. Our surrounding start to turn white and bright so much which make us groaned and close the eyes. We never knew this choice bring so much luck to use.
