"Oh... That kind of sucks. I can't actually allocate any stat points or gain a perk yet. I wish it would at least tell me how to earn the right, will it be a level barrier or a mission or what?" Frey pondered out loud but the system was surely not going to be giving him any answers any time soon.
You could be reading stolen content. Head to the original site for the genuine story.
'I have earned a total of 25 exp if I recall correctly, from this I can make an estimated guess that It cost me 20exp to level up, the next level should be at 50 or so, usually I would run out like a mad hat and attack creatures above my level but due to the test where I felt pain, I do not wish to test the system to see how much pain its willing to inflict on me, I must first gain a few skills or at least a weapon. Which reminds me, that old man should be home soon, I don't want the chicken to burn...'
With that thought leaving his mind, Frey turned his attention to the cooked chicken he had left above the fire. The only possible solution to keep the chicken warm was to keep it over the fire, he would just have to keep rotating it until it until the man came back and simply hope that it didn't burn.
...
Frey waited for a lot longer of a time than he had thought he would need to. He must have continuously spun the chicken for over an hour already yet there was still no word back from the man.
'Should I just sit idly or should I try and find him?' The thought briefly passed Frey's mind, but, he remembered, not only does he have to keep the chicken from burning to pass the quest, but he also wouldn't have had the faintest idea of how to find the man, what if he went in the wrong direction and got lost? What if the man returned whilst Frey was looking?
Alas, it seemed Frey's only choice was to continue to wait for the man to return.
...
The light that once peered in through the door was fading, darkness was in a fierce fight to destroy the light, the birds had ceased to sing and the tree's had started to wheeze.
Silence ruled over the small hut, the crackling of the fire and Freys breathing was the sole sound until a very faint noise could be heard from outside...
*Crunch, crounch* The sound of sticks breaking and old leaves being crushed was faintly distinguishable from outside the hut.
'About time,I have turned this stupid chicken for a few hours already.'
It was no exaggeration, time may pass differently in the capsule, but even in the outside world, he had indeed waited no small amount of hours for the man to return. Most people who started playing at the same time as Frey would have already logged off by now.
The door once again slowly creaked open to reveal the big, burly man who unlike before, now had several rabbit corpses tied to his ragged hide clothing.
"Im back, are your chores done kiddo?"
The man asked whilst placing the corpses and his hunting equipment down.
