Chapter - 4 - End of Blocks!

Quests

Quests, sometimes called missions, are tasks given to players by others or sometimes appear spontaneously. Completing a quest or mission will result in rewards such as experience points, items, and money. Most quests can be accepted or declined while some may be mandatory and must be completed in order to proceed or survive, though giving yp will always be an option.

Sometimes a side quest will be given alongside the main one, these are purely optional but completing them gives a boost of rewards such as experience, money, items, etc. Some quests will allow you an unlimited amount of time to complete them, while others need to be completed before a specific time and/or day or risk quest failure.

Completion of quests also boosts one's reputation with the affiliated village, person, or faction by a certain amount though sometimes it can decrease the reputation of some other faction such as an enemy village. Depending on the failure to complete a quest it can result in penalties such as no rewards, reputation loss, lower experience points gained, crippling injuries, or even death.

Inventory

The inventory is a personal space-time technique, which is where the items you are currently holding on to would go when not in use. This allows you to store a limited amount of items without having to carry them on your person and hamper your movement with the excess weight. To place an item inside just think 'Inventory' and press the item across the screen and vice versa when you want to pull it out. Any items placed inside the Inventory will go into a state of stasis, so weapons and armor won't rust and food will never go bad even if it remains there for years.

Warning!

Living things cannot be placed in the inventory

Item Quality

Simply put, item quality is a relative indicator of how good an item is compared to another. The quality indicator is most often seen with a rank beside the name of any item. There are five types of item qualities in the Elemental Nations, which are ranked from broken to Legendary.

Note: The higher the quality the greater the requirements needed to use it properly.

Broken:

Items that are considered the worst of the worst and not even worth using. Items that are made of shady materials, poor craftsmanship, have rusted over, or have been worn down due to overuse.

Common Quality:

These are common items of decent quality that many use every day. Most items that fit into this category are basic kunai, shuriken, and some other forms of weaponry and armor.

A case of literary theft: this tale is not rightfully on Amazon; if you see it, report the violation.

Rare Quality:

Items of this quality are either somewhat difficult or expensive to come by. Most usually grant an ability or an attribute booster to the user or are made from materials that are difficult to acquire or buy, and require a great level of skill to create.

Epic Quality:

Items that are second to none except when compared to legendary quality items. Items of this quality are few and far between as the methods of creating them are either a closely guarded secret or their ingredients are held under lock and key.

Legendary Quality:

These unique items are considered legendary in terms of power and one-of-a-kind ability they possess or are capable of granting individuals or other items, many of these being one of a kind. Items that are considered to fall under this category are masterpieces or items used by legendary and ancient craftsmen or figures such as the Rikudo Sennin, Gorō Nyūdō Masamune, Uchiha Madara, Senju Hashirama, Senju Tobirama, Sarutobi Sasuke, etc. Some, but not all, of these items, possess sentience and will only allow specific individuals to wield or summon them.

Ren pulled out his kunai from his pouch and looked at it carefully, there was no indication that it was a common-grade item or not, he looked at it a couple more times and then tossed it aside.

'The Quests are neat though, these tutorials are like basic quests that grant me EXP which is one of the requirements of this power to help me improve. Though the death part is a little worrying, I wonder how this power differentiates between who can give these quests and who can not.'

Ren pondered as he clicked the button to collect EXP again, it was a very peaceful way to gain strength and if it continued this way, Ren wouldn't mind if he could easily get even a little bit stronger.

This time no new block popped up and Ren was at a momentary loss for what to do, he then opened every block once again and started reading everything again, he found several points that he had missed in his excitement before.

'I need to maintain a balance between INT and CHA otherwise my control starts dropping, it should be the chakra control that Tomari Sensei was talking about come to think of it he gave us an exercise for those who were unable to perform the bunshin no jutsu.'

Ren looked up and cut the power off from the rice cooker, he then walked back into his bedroom and dragged a box from under his bed. After rummaging through the box for a bit, he finally found the scroll.

'Hmm Leaf sticking exercise, I mean my advantage as a civilian shinobi was the fact that I have a better speed at learning chakra control exercises, let's see what the harm is in trying it anyway.'

As this was related to the only advantage Ren got from his less-than-impressive heritage, he opened the scroll and started reading through the explanation.

'So I have to use my chakra to create a thin layer on my forehead, then stick a leaf on there and try to create a constant flow of chakra to the surface so that the leaf sticks, if my chakra is too low then the leaf will slide and if it is too much the leaf will blow away...'

Ren didn't have a leaf on him so after checking on his curry, he went to his bedroom once again, opened the window, and grabbed a bunch of leaves from the tree.

'Well, one advantage of living in Konoha is that there is no storage of trees.'

He sat down at the counter once again and made a tiger seal to mold chakra, he concentrated on maintaining a stable supply of chakra as he stuck the leaf on his forehead. He tilted his head down, and although the leaf wobbled, it still stuck stubbornly to his forehead.

A blue block popped up suddenly and the leaf ended up blown away because of a sudden spike in his chakra.
