‘Was it its weak spot?’

The fatal blow that caused the shiny area on the scarecrow seemed like its weak spot . Soo Hyuk swung his sword towards the armpit once again .

Whack!

Was it because the sparkle disappeared? Different than before, there was no fatal blow .

‘Does it have to sparkle . ’

It doesn’t seem like a certain area is the weak spot, but a sparkle needs to appear in order for it to be a weakness .

‘Agility . ’

Soo Hyuk thought to himself as he continued to swing his sword . In Pangaea, besides it being possible to acquire bonus stats of 5 when leveling up, you can also raise the stats through action or behavior . Just a moment ago, it was clear that agility rose because of the fatal blow .

‘It would’ve been great if stamina went up . ’

To Soo Hyuk, agility was not a stat he needed . Agility increases physical defense and fatal blow damage, but because hunting was not his primary goal, to Soo Hyuk, it was a useless stat . If it strengthened the efficiency of satiety and his stamina rose, he would’ve liked it very much; but because it didn’t, he was quite sad .

Whack!

ραndαsΝοvεl ƈοm [Training purpose scarecrow has been destroyed . ]

It was at that exact moment . A message along with the training purpose scarecrow began to crumble . Soo Hyuk walked away from the demolished scarecrow towards the scarecrow that was next to it and began swinging his sword .

Whack!

[Training purpose scarecrow has been destroyed . ]

Shortly after, the second scarecrow was also destroyed . Different than the first scarecrow, the second scarecrow did not have any part of its body sparkle .

After Soo Hyuk destroyed the two scarecrows as a condition to complete the quest, he placed his sword inside his inventory and approached the training instructor . It was for the sake of completing the quest .

“The scarecrows have been destroyed . ”

[Quest ‘Destroy the scarecrow!’ has been completed . ]

[Reward acquired . ]

Once he spoke, the quest was completed at the same time . Soo Hyuk opened his inventory . Quest reward of 2 gold along with an armor newly appeared .

“Good job . ”

Soo Hyuk, who was looking at the armor, focused his attention towards the training instructor as soon as the instructor spoke and closed his inventory .

“It is now your turn to try basic hunting . Catch 5 rabbits and bring 3 hides . The rabbits are outside the town . ”

<Rabbit Hunt>

You have learned the basic attack method through the training purpose scarecrow . The training instructor is waiting for you to catch the rabbits and bring its hides . Catch the rabbits and obtain the hides!

[Rabbit: 0/5]

[Rabbit hide: 0/3]

Quest reward: Low-grade leather shoes made from rabbit leather

A scarecrow that didn’t move was caught . Now it was time to catch a moving rabbit .

“Okay, I understand . ”

[Quest ‘Rabbit Hunt’ was accepted . ]

After Soo Hyuk accepted the quest, he said good-bye to the training instructor and came out of the training center . It was because, according to the training instructor, the rabbit was outside of town .

‘Why did the gold suddenly disappear?’

Soo Hyuk thought to himself as he began walking outside of town . The reward for the Quest ‘Rabbit Hunt’ was only shoes . There was no gold .

‘Are they not giving gold now?’

By any chance, is gold not going to be provided as a quest reward anymore?

‘It can’t be like that… . ’

In order to obtain the library pass, he needs 50 gold . Also, he’ll need a lot of gold for the food he’ll need to eat while reading the books .

‘Then do I need to earn it by hunting?’

Of course, he didn’t need to obtain gold through the quest reward only . He could obtain it through hunting as well .

‘Sigh . ’

After Soo Hyuk finished his thoughts, he let out a sigh and opened his inventory . It was in order to confirm that the reward acquired from destroying the scarecrow of ‘low-grade armor made from rabbit leather’ was an option .

<Low-grade armor made from rabbit leather [common]>

Limit: None

Physical defense power: 50

‘As expected . ’

Soo Hyuk confirmed the option as if he expected it and shook his head . The item ranking was ‘common’ for the ‘low-grade armor made from rabbit leather . ’ Common was the lowest ranking out of the 6 levels of item ranking .

‘However, it’ll still be better than not wearing anything . ’

Soo Hyuk took out the armor and wore it . Although it wasn’t a good item, it was better than not wearing anything . A short while after putting on the armor, Soo Hyuk was able to come out of town .

“Hey, you! I was already hitting that one!”

“Sorry . It came out of nowhere . ”

There was already a big crowd outside of town . In order to catch the rabbits, many users were roaming around . The problem was that there were more users than rabbits .

‘It seems like it’s going to take a long time…’

If one rabbit rises, five to six users approach it . In this situation, it will not be easy to catch five rabbits . It was going to take a very long time .

‘I should move to somewhere else . ’

Soo Hyuk decided to move somewhere else . He thought it would be better to go to a place that was a little further away with less competition than to stay in this place where there were lots of competition between users . And just as he thought, Soo Hyuk was correct .

The further away from town, the number of users lessened and the number of rabbits increased . And as soon as the number of users was lower than the number of rabbits, Soo Hyuk stopped walking .

In order to fill his satiety, Soo Hyuk finished the hard bread leftover from what he ate while walking before . He then took out his sword .

‘That one!’

He went towards the rabbit closest to him and began swinging his sword .

Whack!

As expected, the training purpose sword did not cut . It seemed like the rabbit was hit with a club with a dull sound and collapsed to the side .

‘This doesn’t feel right . ’

The graphic being excellent wasn’t always a good thing . However, it was just a game . When Soo Hyuk played different virtual reality games in the past, he killed many rabbits . He walked towards the trembling rabbit that was trying to stand up and swung his sword once more . I think you should take a look at ραΠdαsnovel.cοm

Whack!

The rabbit collapsed again . And the following attack from Soo Hyuk stopped its movement . At that moment, Soo Hyuk was able to see one window . The window allowed you to check the item that was dropped .

‘Oh, hide!’

The dropped item was a rabbit hide needed in order to complete the quest . Soo Hyuk pressed the acquire button and smiled delightedly as he looked at the rabbit hide that came into his inventory . Soo Hyuk closed his inventory and began walking as he looked for the next rabbit .

And when he caught his fifth rabbit .

[Level up!]

Soo Hyuk was able to level up . First, Soo Hyuk acquired all of the dropped items . He caught five rabbits and earned four rabbit hides .

‘How much would 1 hide be?’

Although he completed the quest, there was still 1 hide left . Soo Hyuk anticipated how much it would sell for and closed his inventory . He opened the character window .

Level: 2

Experience: 1%

Vitality: 600

Mana: 200

Satiety: 65%

Strength: 10

Agility: 11

Stamina: 10

Wisdom: 10

Bonus Stats: 5

It was to get the bonus stats .

“It would be best to put the stats in stamina?”

The most important stat to Soo Hyuk was stamina . Soo Hyuk thought for a short while, then invested all of the bonus stats into stamina and closed the character window afterwards . And thereafter, in order to go back towards town, he began walking .

“Ah! Shit! Stop trying to steal!”

“Liar, I killed it first?”

The town entrance still had lots of users and a small number of rabbits, which caused fights to arise . Soo Hyuk passed the users and went inside town, towards the training center .

“I’ve caught them . ”

Soo Hyuk arrived at the training center and spoke to the training instructor .

“Where’s the rabbit hides?”

The training instructor asked Soo Hyuk .

‘Wasn’t it an automatic completion?’

Soo Hyuk thought the training instructor’s question was a little odd as he opened his inventory . He thought it would be an automatic completion, but he had to take out the hides and give it directly .

“Here you go . ”

Soo Hyuk took out 3 rabbit hides and handed them to the training instructor . The instructor accepted them and placed them behind .

[Quest ‘Rabbit Hunt’ has been completed . ]

And then a message appeared .

‘Why didn’t the message to acquire reward appear?’

Different than before, the acquire reward message did not appear . Soo Hyuk saw the message and wondered as he checked his inventory .

“…… . ?”

Soo Hyuk checked his inventory and became flustered .

‘Why isn’t it here?’

The reward for the quest ‘Rabbit Hunt’ was shoes . But there was no difference in the inventory from when the rabbit hides were taken out . Was it because the reward-acquired message did not appear?

It was at that moment .

“It’s over here . ”

The training instructor held out his hands . Soo Hyuk saw the training instructor’s hands and was able to see the shoes he was holding in his hands . It was clearly, the quest reward ‘low-grade leather shoes made from rabbit hide’ .

“I’m sure you must’ve been flustered . Up till now, acquiring the reward automatically was out of consideration . However, for future applicable quests, you will need to receive the reward directly from the NPC whom gave you the quest . ”

Soo Hyuk was able to understand why the reward-acquired message did not appear . The automatic acquired rewards up till now were out of consideration for first time players .

“What I’m saying is . ”

The training instructor was not done speaking .

“It means that the relationship with the applicable NPC is important . Depending on the relationship, the stated reward could be enhanced or weakened . ”

The quest reward is not fixed . Depending on the relationship with the NPC whom gave you the applicable quest, the reward may differ . It can become even better or it can become worse .

“Thank you for letting me know . ”

Soo Hyuk replied to the training instructor . Until now, the emotionless training instructor, smiled .

“You understood well . ”

The training instructor spat out words that were difficult to understand as he withdrew his hands .

‘What the?’

After he said thank you, Soo Hyuk tried to obtain the shoes, but became flustered when the training instructor withdrew his hands . Meanwhile, the training instructor held out his hands again .

‘Sword?’

There were no shoes in the training instructor’s hands . A sword, the training purpose sword could not compare to the sharp sword that was being held .

“Take it . ”

The training instructor spoke as he saw Soo Hyuk’s bedazzled face . Soo Hyuk came back to his senses when the instructor spoke, and received the sword .

[The training instructor’s gift: sword has been acquired . ]

As soon as the sword was accepted, the message appeared .

‘Was it because I said thank you?’

The quest reward was clearly shoes . But, he believed the reward changed because he said thank you .
