Chapter 8: Unforeseen Encounter
Meanwhile, in the guildhall, a lot of important people and core members of opposing guilds arrive to discuss an important topic at hand
“Did everyone see that broadcast?” Said the leader of the Immortal Phoenix as the whole room remained quiet while one other individual aside from him started to talk
“It looks like no one is going to say anything let me start this meeting some newcomer just got broadcasted and it’s not even his own doing. we all know that we can broadcast but the system themselves promote this all on our status to watch,” said the vice leader of Deep-sea Leviathan while he stood up showing an artifact that recorded the GM’s broadcast
Many of them were shocked as they gazed upon the recordings, even their doubts were removed. Even if it’s only for the second time in their lives, the masked player that was seen leaving a deep impression on these players. He was said to be a semi-mage and semi-assassin therefore he came to be addressed as a Spell thief
His quick movements and mastery of a dagger and chantless spell casting were enough for them to stop and be amazed. These people who were said to be fierce had a calm meeting for the very first time, they couldn’t avert their eyes from the recorded footage. They came back to their sense once it finally ended and they realized that they had been staring at the projection for an hour
“Unbelievable I’ve never seen anything like it, is there a chance that any of you know this person’s identity,” Said the leader of the magic brigade
*Yawn*
A yawn appeared at the crowded table where every player that attended the meeting, gazing at one of the most fearsome players to be seen. A person feared by many for her power, her talent was something that even a blind man could see. She was the player rumored to shower in the blood of her prey, a monster possessing human skin. She was known far and wide by her name, Velvet Airis
“This isn’t the time to sit and discuss this im done waiting around… Let me just say what these fools are trying to say without wasting anyone’s time. In short, they want us to keep our hands off that guy. If not, they’ll start a war with us isn’t that right? A bold declaration indeed, but remember this I’ll be one of your many adversaries,” said the leader of the mercenary group known as Red velvet
All of them paused as they heard what she said in front of every person in the room, they didn’t utter a single word. She wasn’t wrong, to say the least, all of them attended that meeting to declare war. The war against those who would compete against the other group that wishes to take this mysterious player by themselves
Meanwhile in the forest
“What’s all this?”
[System: You’ve received 300 tokens as your deity wins the bet he placed on you]
‘So that’s why he’s so silent when I’ve heard that notification about a betting function at least I got something. But how many did he bet on me? The return is too low or did he cut his earnings before sending this to me, well I’m not bothered by that 300 tokens. Quite frankly it is a lot, I can get some items for this amount, let’s check my status first,’
[System: You’ve reached level 10 you can now officially choose your class that will decide your role in the world of trials.

‘Let’s focus on defense and stamina it’s been bugging me that I have to rely on haste. I need to lessen the consumption of stamina and increase my defense. As much as I want to increase my mana, I can’t ignore the fact that im dying in one hit,’
[System: You’ve invested 20 points to increase Def, 10 Points on Stm. Overall ratings: You’ve reached the average stats of a normal individual don’t get too cocky, your only at the beginning while your Mp is praiseworthy]
‘Finally, I’ve reached the average stat of a normal player I can rest for a while before I go back to the city. Wait a minute the crater!!? If someone sees this they’ll find me in no time I need to change it,’
[System: You’ve learned Earth array – Once you’ve cast this spell the area around you will be the center of the array. Anything within its range of effect will allow the player to control the rocks within its surroundings. Using it for a long time will slowly drain you of your stamina

Without thinking twice about his decision, he activated the array. Manipulating the shape of the crater and adding a few layers of dirt in its surroundings. Making it mistakable for a landslide before leaving the area with haste
‘This is still a beginner spell yet no one tries to learn It? They can’t see how useful these spells are, and I can’t blame them apart from the free skill slot you can get at lvl 0. You can only get one skill slot as you level up, aren’t they focusing on Aoe spells instead of investing in utility? Nevermind it’s their life it doesn’t have anything to do with me how about we check out the goblin spawns drop,’

“I didn’t get the Goblin mage necklace or its robe a pity at least I got a title out of it,” Morris said as he checked his titles Description
[Goblin slayer – A title given to the one who completed the 100th Goblin spawn challenge without the assistance of anyone
Effect: The player will gain a bonus of 25% extra damage to any kind of goblin. There’s a small chance of invoking a rage state when you fight a goblin
Origin: The title was said to originate from a man who lost everything he loved to the goblins. His rage made him seek revenge on these freaks, legends say that he roamed the world and killed all sorts of goblins. It was also said that he formed a team that specialized in slaughtering these fiends]
‘It’s one of the titles that’s going to help me, in the long run, it’s a buff that increases my damage to a goblin. Not bad I can use this if I try to do some AFK farming, before that I need to check that camp. Does a Goblin king drop something like a golden key? It’s not something you’ll see every day in this place, it’s practically rare. Let’s not waste any more time the longer I stay here will have a positive impact on my story,’
He went on to the goblin camp which was repaired by the system, the buildings that were demolished. The bodies of the goblins were cleaned and lastly, the barrier that was placed in the forest had disappeared without a trace. He was left with a goblin den without its kind walking from every nook and cranny. The key shines brightly once he gets closer to a certain location and reveals the hidden treasure trove
A gate appeared inside the Goblin king’s tent when he shoved the key inside it opened a secret room. It was filled with shackles attached to a few skeletons, there was also an abundance of meat. He guessed that they belonged to a few unlucky players
“Shit…! This place looks like a dump, who am I to judge my room was a fucking mess. Let’s find the items and get this over with, it smells like shit. Arrrrggh god damn!!! I step into one of their shit,” Apart from that, the place was only filled with a ton of garbage and goblin feces
He thought it was a bust until his attitude toward that place completely shifted. When he saw a pile of items inside a giant chest, though it didn’t contain any piece of armor. The chest was filled with a bunch of items that he was hoping to find and most hadn’t met his level requirements
‘This is incredible, I’ve struck a fortune let’s just take what I need, too much fortune will only ruin a person’s life. That right there is a joke I just haven’t unlocked my inventory since that thing needs money. It’s a terrible fucking idea to charge 10k tokens for unlocking that shit. I shouldn’t have written that, for now, I’ll take anything that has some use for me,’
He started collecting all the items he saw to be useful for his journey. In his time of looting, he heard a noise appearing out of nowhere. It came from a hidden door amidst the pile of bones. He thought they belonged to the unfortunate players. The golden key flickered and he was able to open it without having to break a sweat. He searches around the room that looks warm and comfortable. At the end, he sees a girl who is shackled on top of the table
‘Whoa, now that’s a surprise? Who the hell is this girl? She looks pretty damn fine. I can rate this as a heroine-grade beauty no cap. Should I save her…? No matter how I look at it, she looks like a noble birth. Maybe even know someone who is pretty loaded with tokens,’
He pauses and quickly thinks of the possibilities that aren’t in his favor so he decides to craft a foolproof plan
‘But there’s a slim chance she’s just a normal girl. If that’s the case I need to know if she’s weaker than me. There’s no way I can guarantee winning and with her face she’ll sell well for a slave. But first I need to get this thing off, check her pulse, and make a great first impression~’
*Smack*
He was confused about what happened. By the time the last shackles are removed, he sees himself flying away from the room. For the first time, his face was landed by a clean and powerful blow. It had a force strong enough to knock him back and give him a few bruises
An unforeseen encounter has finally arrived at his doorstep. What lies in this unforeseen encounter will grant him troubles ranging from horror to hellish delight. Was it fate or something else? This encounter with a figure he once wrote about will become the first piece. The piece that’ll allow him to create the team that will shake this world to its core
…
Whilst that was happening, there was a ton of commotion within a certain city. One of the most valuable items to be on sale was stolen. A scale that belonged to a transparent monster that was rare on its own to encounter had its scales stolen
No one could find the perpetrator after he took the scales for themselves. They sent a ton of players on a hunt to catch their thief. But the location of this thief was somewhere they couldn’t have thought. He was in the slums where the figure was sharing his food with the elderly and the poor. A place where the people who weren’t able to fight had called their home
In this dreadful part of the city dwells a red-haired player unlike anyone else. He was viewing the streamable footage of Spell Thief and continued to gouge down his food
[You’re watching that again?]
[I am but a living thing I command thee to heed my words, Become a weapon of mass destruction. An attack that can travel by air and a power that can pierce my enemy, Twin~]
“Mystic slash… So you’re here as well?”
[Where are you going? They’re still looking for you, it’s not safe for you to leave]
“They’re not gonna find me when my next destination is gonna be the starter city, Grequil. I’ve just found the guy I’ve been looking for. I wonder how much you’ve strayed away from your weaknesses isn’t that right Morris?” The red-headed figure said whilst he stared intently at the masked player’s footage
