I will be The Monkey God!

"Thousand… Thousand is still too much…" Old man Hao responded.

It wasn't only because Michu wasn't particularly close to him, thousand bananas would give him a hefty sum. Every month, an old man saved some money for his granddaughter's future.

A magical academy's teachings weren't cheap and each student here needed money to keep learning new stuff.

In case his granddaughter suddenly would need some money, the old man Hao was ready to pull out his abundant pouch to help her.

"You also can fail…" Even if the player had a quest to support and guide him, the success rate was never 100% and it often was the opposite.

The old man's heart would hurt if he were to see all his fruits destroyed.

Michu smiled widely, "I understand!" He knew people would properly look over themselves and their close ones first.

He also knew that hard work would lead him somewhere, "I can just gather more bananas through quests. Do you know another banana farm? Even two or three more!"

There were things that one couldn't do, however. Michu, no matter how hard he worked, often failed in his studies. If he did his utmost best, then he would get a passable grade, though.

"But I am the best in P.E! I can do it!" A lot of quests to gather bananas were possible for Michu! He also got all those nice bonuses, so stamina wouldn't be the problem. And after learning about his cool stats and its names, Michu wanted to move a lot already.

All his excitement would burst soon with stamina, agility, and strength stats!

That was what he felt and he was eager to go for it even now.

The old man looked at him with big eyes, then faintly laughed, "You are so hopeless!" He exclaimed loudly then and Michu's quest was updated.

"I can just give you some more rewards! As for other farms, check your minimap." The old man updated the quest, but also recommended his friends' farms. Because of that, the minimap updated itself and Michu just clenched his fist and threw it up to the sky.

"Let's do it! Hehe! It will be the weekend tomorrow, so for the whole two days, I will complete every quest and get one thousand bananas for myself!"

-

"Ha.. hahaha! Ha…. Haa…." Michu's fatigued laughter rang out in the vicinity.

It was already the weekend and he was on old man Hao's friends' farm. It was another old man who already knew about Michu and his plans.

He also had enough time to learn about Michu's eagerness and hard work.

But no matter how much one would have, it amounted to nothing if one's body couldn't keep up.

Getting exhausted was just inevitable for Michu, especially as he was still a level one player.

In this game, the exhaustion was even more frightening. Each player was more closely with their bodies and they had something called 'Mana Pores' within their bodies.

Those mana pores, when exhausted, hurt so much more that players would wail on the ground for a long time, even if it was not their first time.

Michu had been using the new agility skill he got from the quest, so those were opened by him.

"It's… fine… Ha… Haha!" Michu belatedly and barely answered the old man.

The eyes from above just glanced at him for the first time, then returned to the work. Within those, one could see an understanding.

Yes, in this world, there were a small group of players that enjoyed this fatigue. Each of them had different thoughts about it, but they clearly had one thing in common; enjoyment.

Masochists? Not exactly.

Most of them just felt their hard work through this and Michu was one of those people. He also pushed himself to the limits knowing that it would result in something good.

[You have naturally raised your stamina by 50 points!]

[5 additional stamina points have been added!]

"I will… Ha… recover in no time!" Michu shouted as much as he could, then an hour passed before he could move on his legs.

Another day passed and by the end of Sunday, Michu managed to get a thousand bananas into his inventory.

A lot of farms gave him some bonuses from his hard work and pure smile.

"I have to take a photo first… Little sister scolded me before…" Since Michu had been so agitated for The Monkey God's banana, he did indeed forget about the moon's photo.

He even forgot to chat with his sister and tell her about his experience.

A new moon got sent to Nana, then Michu finally began the process.

Clicking on the banana icon in his inventory, Michu selected the quest's option and began the first creation process.

A huge amount of bananas fell out of his inventory, then began to shine in the golden color.

A few players from around noticed this development and exclaimed loudly, "What is this?! Are these stars?" The golden bananas seemed like stars fallen from the night's sky!

It was a beautiful sight, so many female players stopped in their tracks and looked at absentminded Michu with slight jealousy!

He soon disappeared in this golden light, then his head turned to the side, "What are you doing?" He shouted at the incoming player whose lips curled up into a cruel smile.

The player was level five, "What am I doing? Taking those stars for myself, of course!" He felt the advantage with the naked eye and so sounded arrogant.

He wasn't the only one to close up the distance.

Many players either wanted to get a piece for their female teammates or themselves, so they began to surround Michu in the blink of an eye!

Ding!
