Chapter 6. Finally adventure... and I got a fortune...
So... finally our own personal trainers... I got an old geezer with the looks of Jiraya and same attitude as him. He's an old spymaster and quite proficient in both sword and magic... Oh and if you didn't get it, then he's a pervert... so he's not coming near my slaves.
Jiraya?: “Oh come on! You are a hero, why don't you want some pussies? Every hero is like that, according to the old stories that is.”
Pyro: “First I am not a hero, just a mercenary that got summoned in another world. Second all heroes are dense! Third and the most vital parameter. HEROES DIE LIKE FUCKING MOTH IN FLAME, so I will not follow the path of hero, will save humanity though.”
Jiraya?: “And you say that you are not a hero.”
Pyro: “Hey, I'm in for the loot.”
Jiraya?: “Whatever gets you tickled.” seriously... he'd be the best companion for the MO Ken. But Jiraya got assigned to me, while Ozelot was Assigned to Ken. “So today we will go for a monster hunting mission, but before that... we will register you in the guild.” oh right... adventurers...
Pyro: “Sure... Just don't act as a jerk.”
Jiraya?: “Disciple! I am never acting! I am a JERK!”
Pyro: “... Stop being a jerk.”
Jiraya?: “No.”
…
So after registering in the guild... both me and my slaves... were assigned a rank C, because of some stupid prick that thought it was fine to piss me off... let's just say that his genitals were now loosely hanging from his mouth. Everyone got the point after that. And no. I didn't kill him... I will kill him, his family and friends later... after that Jiraya became more docile, by the way...
Jiraya?: “Did you really needed to-”
Pyro: “He pissed me OFF! SO HE IS LUCKY TO BE LEFT ALIVE! GOT IT?!”
Jiraya?: “... yes...”
Pyro: “Good... now what was the mission again?”
Jiraya?: “Here you go.” goblin extermination? “The regular quest for an F ranker.”
Pyro: “How many should I kill?”
Jiraya?: “Oh just in batches of five. It will provide five coppers per ear, so it's quite good thing for newbies.”
Oh... right... adventurer ranks are quite... well let's just say that it's ranging from I to A with additional S, SS, SSS. F is basic fighter adventurer for the stuff like rats, goblins, bugs and in some cases rabbits... Yes monster rabbits... with horns on their heads... there is also regular rabbits without horns, but... they are difficulty level G... and [I] level is for... well... children... ranks [I] and H are considered children and civilians that can't fight, while G's are hunters. F and higher are adventurers, but unless you are D you will be looked down upon. So effectively you can start counting from D and higher.
…
I found the goblin camp! And I got a quest.
Cool, right? And the reason behind 10 points is-
Jiraya?: “... They got hobgoblin? And there is a thousand of them... we need to” fuck you Jiraya I'm going in for the kill!
I started quite simply... by throwing fireballs in the buildings... tents... some rags on sticks... and their 'colony' quite quickly caught on fire, and so they were cut off from the escape routes... seriously... 10 gold just for a few fireballs? Anyway... I didn't even fight them... they all died and I got 2 levels and reward, plus...20 gold from guild... I mean THAT was actually hard? I alone was able to incinerate them, and you say that usually they use a few groups? Oh well... there were some prisoners, but... let's be serious... if you got captured by a goblin, you're either infant, or just some sorry excuse for a living... even undead stronger... oh right... there are undead in this world... most of them are weak though... Besides do you wonder where did I put my points? I put them all to luck! Hey it's good! At least I maxed out one stat and have two affinities maxed... they are quite expensive to modify though... to increase affinity by one point you need 1 points at 0 and add additional 1 point for every point you spent, besides every ten points it increases the cost by another 10, so leveling up from 10 to 11 will cost you 21 point! It's a fucking rip off! BUT! I have Devourer, so I can consume enemies for their points... one problem though... I need to rid of this pervert... Oh and Attributes are increasing in costs only after you get to level 10 and then they start increasing for 1 point for 10 points in stat. But 0-20 are cost 1 point, while 21-30 cost 2 points... not much, but to be a superman you need to get your stats in over 100, so... it's like 460 points to level up one stat from 0... And there is no actual limit to the attributes! So... I will levelup my attributes, while I can do it with quite a discount, and after that I'll do traits, titles and skills. Masteries I will level up in traditional ways... So today... I will try to go for some noble vault... considering that the assistant said about gold-stats conversion, I can quite quickly levelup myself with the gold...
…
So... I decided to steal from some noble house in the capital... oh and when I told the staff to not enter my room, where me and my slaves reside, they had quite a mischievous grin... dunno why though...
…
Change of plans! First let's steal money from the Merchant Guild! They have BANK!!!
…
And... how do I take it all away?
… seriously? Then let's start!
…
Hey... why does it become liquid?
… almost 8 ton of gold is... a lot... but... only 152'600?
…
Say... why did I lose 2.5 ton of gold?
… so I lost... 500 points?
… whatever... free points... oh is there a limit for stat growth?
So... Let's start spending... after I get out of here...
…
So I'm back to the castle and now I'm into my room... Now let's spend some points...
Kukuku... 589 points left... let's see what we can buy...
