The World of Masks

Jack stares at the words that come to mind on the cards with sharp eyes. Fortunately, once checked with the card, the item did not appear to consume the number of translations on the card, even after checking the information again. Although I looked at the Elongated Life Beads to see if I had any information that I had missed, the information on the card was simple, so it was more difficult to miss information. Jack, who alternated the information on the card, immediately put the card on the table, as if he could remember even a letter that came up on the card.

'Nothing out of the ordinary.'

All of them are the most precious beads of life, and even the supporting explanation is simple. If you can only read, you will not miss out on information in phrases that do not have any problems understanding even if you do not have advanced education.

'Is the item you receive different depending on how you solve the quest?'

Maybe that's the right answer. The beads of life that were thought to have been given to you when you first watched the game floated the same information, whereas only the beads that were thought to have performed and received Lanpral's quests had different poisonous information. No matter how much I thought about it, it seemed like the answer was that the item's performance would change by solving the quest.

'Does all quest rewards depend on how to solve them?'

You never know. You have now completed only one quest in Lanpral. I needed several more cases to prove the hypothesis I was thinking about.

'Let's drop this for now.'

Jack decided to take a step in his quest and recall two beads that were completely different in performance from the other beads of life. One bead that absorbs the life force of humans and metahumans from itself, and one that absorbs 3 more points of life each time it absorbs life force. Next to the beads' names appeared who had made them.

Einz and Varel.

They are as unfamiliar as the names of the countries that Jack has no interest in. Jack engraved both names on his head.

'I need to investigate these guys first.'

Two bizarre beads of life. These are beads that can be said to be more powerful than other beads. But that's the bottom line. If the names of the two beads were merely life beads, then Jack would have seen Einz and Varel as just an interesting mix of eyes. But it was clearly stated in the two beads. It's the lowest level. If you follow the footprints of the people who made the beads, you may find beads that are more powerful than the beads of life you have.

'Should I check the beads of life in the temple shops as well?'

Perhaps there is an option attached to it, just like the orb of life you have. Well, they appear to be off-the-shelf, so it's unlikely the options will stick. And even if I did, I wouldn't be able to buy it with my own money right now. I also felt like I needed to save up money quickly.

'Well, maybe it's because you're not bored.'

It was a game that came to fulfill his needs, but it would be better to act with a certain degree of purpose than to kill and beat without purpose. Killing and smashing them will be enough. Jack organizes his thoughts and puts the items into the bracelet. The six living beads, which had no choice, were placed separately from the other beads. They will be the root of feeding new gold in their empty pockets.

Jack gets up from his seat. The rugged wooden chair, which had been holding Jack's weight all along, cried out for relieved joy from its heavy body. As he sat on the side of the chair, his body hardened, and he began to walk loudly toward the porch. I stayed in the city and finished what I had to do. It's time to go hunting. You put the robe back on, just like you threw it on the chair. Was he excited by the feeling of seeing blood? Jack's jaw rises up and down.

Jack leaves the city and enters the lush forest behind the city. It was the forest where Jack met four robbers.

The sacred neutral city where Jack was was, was bordered by a river of some magnitude in front of it, and around it was a huge plains. The vast quantities of grain from the plains were the driving force to maintain Berted's sacred neutral city. And behind the holy neutral city, where Jack is now, is covered in dense forests. Of course, the land between the city and the forest was somewhat indigenous, but the city's food supply was sufficient with grain from the plains in front of the city, so the urban people did not want to open the forest. Snacks just go in for hunting and gathering. So it was not an exaggeration to say that the back of the city was relatively isolated.

Jack makes careful entry into the woods. According to the information Jack obtained while searching the city for information, there were no monsters around all the holy neutral cities, thanks to the blessing of the gods the city carries. There are only a few animals. But even the ferocious predators are on the verge of it, so Jack, who is still a jerk, is not disappointed. If you level up to a certain level, you will definitely have to leave this city.

'But even if you leave the city, it's a problem.'

This game is a game but it is not like a game. Other games are said to have hunting grounds where monsters of that level exist, but this game does not. Of course, this means that there are areas that are more dangerous than others, and there are areas that are less dangerous than others, but there is no place where monsters can hunt just to that level like any other game. I mean, I could die meeting senior monsters on the road, or I could only meet monsters at that level if I'm looking for monsters that fit my level.

At that moment, Jack decided to take off his robe to worry. It's a little awkward to see your face, but for now, you don't see anyone around you, and you don't intend to fight in a rough robe. Jack, with his naked robe in his bracelet, draws a sword and turns it upside down with a metal helmet that looks rather defensive. As soon as I used it, my neck became a little sore, but I didn't have any trouble moving because of the strength I had invested hard. The problem was that his helmet and leather armor were at an extreme point of discordance like cogs that didn't fit the anglers, but he was still a tightly ignored jack for safety.

Several animals were noticeable as we went deeper. Most of them were small animals I had never seen before. Instead of running away when you're around, it's like, "Hit me one time! 'They looked at themselves and saw what they were doing. However, since these landscapes were already seen in beginner villages, Jack also went out looking for other prey without much interest, because he had grown tired of hunting rabbits or boars. I showed interest in the appearance of strange animals for a while, but there won't be much life to gain from hunting those little ones anyway. It was literally a waste of time.

Jack sharpens his nerves as if he were testing a new skill. I had hoped that the passive skill I had just learned would be useful, but there would still be a difference between learning the skill and not learning it. And fortunately, it was minor but effective. I felt a slight but weak look at myself, whether it was because the small animals were staring at me. So, believing in his sixth sense, one of the skills he learned, Jack gradually made his way into the woods.

Luckily, the sky was blue and light was seeping through the middle of the trees, whether it was a dense forest like the Amazon or a rainforest. However, the forest was sufficiently dense and the distance between the trees was not very long.

'Not good.'

It is not a good environment to wield a long sword like Longsword. You swing your sword, but you hit the trees around you before you even hit your target. Of course, I don't know if I can cut down everything around me like the space itself is cut with a sword like the protagonist in the story, but no matter how good I thought of myself, I was a little, but I was a little short. Even in the beginner's village, he used to hunt in the backhills, but there was no big deal at the time because Short Shot was the main weapon. For a moment, Jack looks at the Longsword in his hand as if it were an animal luring him into a trap, and he puts it back into his bracelet. And I took out a new weapon. It was a shortcode that Jack and I had been carrying since the beginning, because it seemed like he had a lot of passion for selling it.

'I didn't think I'd be able to use this again.'

Jack smiles bitterly as he looks at the rusty shortsword with dark red marks on it.

'You'd better buy a dagger.'

I thought I'd quit hunting in the woods. There was only one small type of Boar in the beginner village, so I didn't worry much. But it's not easy to move around here.But predators may come out of nowhere. However, I asked NPCs in the city that this forest was the only place near the city to call a hunting ground. Nevertheless, you still have a low level to leave this city.

'I have to trust my sixth sense.'

and enhanced own capabilities. It will be three to four levels superior to the already powerful self. Today, thinking that we should not go deeper, Jack raises his nerves more sharply.

Ugh.

Jack walks away leaving a deep knife mark on the tree next to him. It was a measure to avoid getting lost in the forest. If the trees could feel the pain, it would have been half an hour since they were able to enter the forest, leaving knife marks proficiently deep enough to emit all kinds of luminescence. Jack stops. I couldn't say for sure what it was because I didn't have a high sixth sense yet. But I definitely felt different from before. It's a little bit stronger than the eyes of the little animals I saw earlier. There is something stuck in Jack's eyes, looking around with a small glance. It was about 30 meters away. The first animal to see through the trees was looking at him.
