[Complete thest quest. Enter the God King trial and get your first crown. That''s your only choice] the system responded as Nn''s eyes shed.
Truly, he had notpleted the God King Trial.
And as the system had chimed in earlier, it might just be enough for him to resolve whatever trouble he was currently facing.
Now he knew he wasn''t helpless and actually had a n.
"Yes!" Nn eximed excitedly, which was noticed by Wiro, who looked on in surprise.
"How safe is your secret hideout?" Nn asked, as Wiro''s eyes shed.
"No one except me has been here before, and you won''t find any students this far outside in the woods."
"It would have been 100% safe if not for you..." Wiro said with certainty, and Nn''s eyes shed.
"Perfect. This should at least give me a few days."
Of course, Nn knew he couldn''t return to his dorm room. The enemies knew the location, and therefore, it was no longer safe
. Nowhere in the academy was safe for him, as he had no idea what powers those Shadow Ones possessed.
He might get himself shot in the back unexpectedly, and the academy wouldn''t give a damn.
For now, he needed to hide away, and what better way to do so than in a secret hideout far away from the academy and deep within the woods, which no one else happened to know about? It was a perfect spot.
"You know, you can''t hide forever, though. Sooner orter, they will still track you down."
"The Dark Descendants always have unthinkable powers in their pockets..." Wiro warned as Nn''s eyes shed.
"I don''t n on hiding forever. A week is at most all I need..."
"Hmph," a loud snort broke out from Wiro as his pitch-ck eyes looked at Nn incredulously.
The boy beside him had been the academy''s trash for close to three years now and couldn''t do a damn thing.
And now, he was iming to be able to take care of Quinn and his entire cult in at most a week?
Who was he fooling?
Nn could also see the expression of disbelief, but he didn''t offer to exin at all. No matter how he said it, it would only seem like the ramblings of a madman.
Looking up at the sky, they could see it was starting to gain the shade of early morning, and Nn could guess it should be around 3 or 4 AM right now.
"I''ll be leaving for ss tomorrow. So I need my nap," Wiro said as he flung the can away into the woods before rising up and entering back into the cottage.
Nn remained sitting throughout, silently conversing with the system.
"How do I begin the trial?" he asked.
"Calm down. You can start after the fat bully leaves for his ss."
"But for now, you can try leveling up and improving your strength as much as you can with the rewards you gained frompleting the previous quest," the system said to him as Nn''s eyes shed.
"System Interface," he thought, and quickly the panel appeared before him.
"Congrattions on your sessful survival."
"Host has been rewarded with +1 level-up card and 300 EXP."
[System Interface]
[Name:Nn Gottschald]
[Level:8]
[Age:16]
[ss:??]
[EXP: 1000/1000]
[Does the host wish to level up?]
"Yes."
[Congrattions, host has leveled up to Level 9!]
[+10 Attribute Points obtained.]
[Level-up card remaining: 1.]
[Does the host wishes to use level up card?]
"Yes."
[Congrattions, host has leveled up to Level 10!]
[+15 Attribute Points have been obtained.]
[Total Attribute Points: 25.]
"Oh, the attributes increased to 15!?" Nn quickly noticed.
[Yes. It increases after every 10 levels.]
"Oh, that''s great!" Nn thought to himself. Now he would have an extra 5 attribute points with every future level-up.
It seemed like nothing, but if he kept amassing them, soon they would be a pivotal reason for his wild increase in strength.
[Attributes]
[Strength: 30]
[Agility: 25]
[Perception: 25]
[Intelligence: 20]
[Charm: 4]
[Attribute Points: 25]
"I wish I knew a thing or two about the trial, so I could at least understand what areas I should focus on..." Nn mused to himself, but the system remained silent.
[I too have no idea either. None have ever taken the test before, and you''ll be the first. It''s hard to prepare for such a thing," it responded to him, and Nn finally made his choice.
"Add 5 points to Agility, 5 points to Perception, 10 points to Intelligence, and the rest to Strength," he called out.
"Congrattions, points have been sessfully added."
Immediately, Nn halted into a pause, shutting his eyes close as veins wriggled all over his neck and face, but soon cleared up after 30 seconds.
[Attributes]
[Strength: 35]
[Agility: 30]
[Perception: 30]
[Intelligence: 30]
[Charm: 4]
[Attribute Points: 0]
"Now all of my stats are bnced, with Strength taking the lead."
[Why are you ignoring the charm?] the system suddenly asked, something it had noticed that Nn didn''t view with as much priority as his other stats.
"Why would I want to be more charming? So I can invoke the jealousy of some bullies and make them smash my face in?" Nn asked.
"Besides, no matter how beautiful I get, none would still look at me and find me appealing."
"I''m still very weak, which is something I think is the criteria for anything else in this ce."
"Upgrading charm would only lead to even more mockery and a waste of stat points for me."
"Besides, aren''t I already handsome?" Nn exined lengthily. And truly he was right. The current Nn had a face that was crafted by perfection itself.
It just doesn''t get noticed due to the his bad reputation that preceedes him.
"I guess so. But the charm stat is more than just beauty."
"What do you mean?"
"I will tell you about it once you grow strong enough so that others don''t call you trash at first nce. Then you will see how important the charm stat truly is..."
