A Descendant To Being Dropped - Chapter 8 Chapter 9
And with this, I also received a quest.
{Quest : Kill Your First Monster
You own a system, you can’t be allowed to lose against your first monster neither can you ask for help.
Quest Reward : Beast Encyclopedia Function
From what I know, we are going to the [Arjham Forest], next to [Ramri’s Territory], and the monster I’ll have to kill is a F-Rank [Giant Beetle], one of the strongest F-Rank, those usually lives alone and are very aggressive, even killing other [Giant Beetle].
While searching for a [Giant Beetle], Arfin and Loindri decided to teach me more about the World,
they taught me about the various factions in the world, starting from the [Palace], the royal faction, it’s just the faction of the nobles, then the [Adventurer Guild], the faction of Adventurer, that’s where they get their ranks, mission and information but before they could teach me more, we heard a huge sound.
Hearing this sound, Loindri’s and Arfin’s face showed a delighted expression and told me to get ready.
“Grimson, there should be a [Giant Beetle] right next to us, so get prepared”
Hearing that, I quickly imbued my bow with Wind element to launch the arrow faster and I also imbued some arrows with Fire element because [Giant Beetle] is weak against Fire.
“We’re going to hide, if you think you’re not going to win then call us”
Like I would, even if I die I won’t lose any of my skill. After Loindri and Arfin went into hiding, I waited a bit until I heard huge footsteps coming into my direction.
‘There he is!’ I thought to myself before quickly aiming toward the direction the footsteps came from. The moment I saw the [Giant Beetle], I quickly shot the arrow, after that I quickly prepared a Fire spell, [Fireball], but to be sure I used the [Explosive Fireball] variant, when the [Fireball] exploded, and released a huge smoke wall.
I quickly used my maxed [Armor/Weapon Creation] to create a EEE-Rank Spear using 400 mana, when the smoke disappeared, I saw the [Giant Beetle] rushing in my direction, I quickly put the Spear in front of me and stopped the imbuing on the bow and arrows, then I used [Tempest] on the spearhead, when the [Giant Beetle] reached the spearhead, I heard a huge screech then I blacked out, my fatigue reached a critical point and my mana was too low but I wasn’t in a dangerous zone so it was fine.
When I woke up, I saw Loindri and Arfin shaking their head, before getting scolded by Arfin
“Grimson, you’re too arrogant, if we weren’t here you would’ve died the moment you blacked out!”
When I heard that, I got a bad feeling like I didn’t kill the [Giant Beetle] even when using all my skills.
“Don’t tell me, I couldn’t kill it even with all I’ve did?”
“No, you did kill the [Giant Beetle] but we were still in a forest so other Monsters would’ve been attracted by the blood of the [Giant Beetle]” Phew! I really thought I would’ve lost a random skill.
“Anyway, Grimson, what was this Spear? We’ve never seen you use this? And what was that last wind spell you used on the spearhead?” F*ck, I should’ve thought of that, even though the smoke was still here before I used [Tempest] they would obviously be gone because of the strong Wind.
“Teacher Loindri, the Spear was one of the creation I made from a skill and the Wind was from another skill they were given to me. I don’t know how but once when I was sleeping, I heard a message from something that told me that I was too weak and gave me those 2 skills”
I hope he believes that. “Hmm . . . This might be the God giving you 2 skills to help you in your fight against the Demons” Oh, he really believed that, after this small talk they left the room.
When they left I checked the Notification Function that I unlocked during the 5 Years of training.
{You Killed [Giant Beetle]
You Received :
-10 World Coins
{Quest Completed : Kill Your First Monster
You own a system, you can’t be allowed to lose against your first monster neither can you ask for help.
Uh? Why did I get this skill and why I didn’t get this earlier?
[It’s because of how important the lie were, right now you created a Lie that led Loindri to think that these skills were given by the God due to you being [Hero], hiding the secret of the System]
Fuck that, anyway what’s this Beast Encyclopedia Function.
[Everytime you fight a monster it’ll be recorded in the Beast Encyclopedia, the more you fight with the same kind of monster the more information in the Beast Encyclopedia you’ll have. When the Information of a monster reaches 100%, there will even be some kind of health bar and names above the monster’s head and all of the weak points will be highlighted]
Old Guy, there is something that I always wondered about you, What actually are you? You called yourself a “System” but the one telling me everything isn’t you but the other voice, if you were the “System” normally you’d be the one doing the notification.
[I guess you’re right, I should explain a bit more. You see when I sacrificed myself to “The One Above All”, my soul split into 2, one being the “System”, losing all free will, then there is me, I kept all the memories and I have free will, in fact it’s better to call me the “Guide”, the one that helps you using the “System]
Phew ! I thought you were some kind of soul that fused with mine then would wait until I’m strong enough to steal all my strength.
[I’m going to beat you up]
Anyway now that I have money, I can finally look into the [Shop]
{Shop :
[Search]

When I opened the page of Consummable, I saw thousands of Items, I quickly gave up to look at every items so I just used the Search Button, and I tried to search for something that can be bought for 10 Coins or Less.
