You wake up from your deep slumber with a groan and a grin.
Ugh, you were more worn out than you had thought, however your tiredness does little to dampen the joy you feel. Everyone you knew had doubted your ability to earn money (to pay off your mother's hospital and cybernetic costs) from playing games, in just two days you've earned over 10 gold (aka $1000) worth in items. Of course most of it was caused by coincidences and pure idiocy however you promptly ignore that. You stretch yourself out promptly and begin walking to the VR unit.
Its time to dive again today. With a brilliant flash of liht, once again, you're within your virtual body within a dingy yet clean looking inn room.
Your first priority is to
>assign stat points which you still have some spare off
>get some new gear at the general shop
>finish the quest by talking to the old mentor
>walk around town a bit
>go check if that sulky glasses bastard (Bob) is still there
>other

You decide that the first thing to do on a good sunny day like this is to turn in the damn quest to that perverted bastard of an old man.

Within moments of walking, you are in front of the training grounds where the old man stands in a kind of senile slanted position. When he sees you, he grins what could only be called a "man's" grin or rather the grin of a goddamn rapist.

You walk straight up to him with a smile as you tell him easily.
"I've finished the quest, what are my rewards?" your voice booms out in a quite unladylike fashion... reminds you that stupid "shounen hero" title you're wearing is changing your voice to make every damn thing you say sound heroic yet idiotic.
The old man looks quite perplexed at your tone for a bit before he grins and asks
"What proof do you have? If you walked the path of fools than tell me of the riddle, if you walked the path of courage than tell me of the trap." he drones whilst his eyes stare at your chest... or rather the lack of one before he looks away with what can only be described as boredom. Damnit, I choose a fucking girl avatar and it has literally zero sex appeal, I mean what the fuck is the point than...

"I walked neither the path of fools or courage, I walked the path of both by breaking open the roof" you explain to him whilst trying to avoid the urge to cover yourself from his glances. The old man looks quite perplexed at your explanation for a second before a look of distinct shock colours his face...
"y-you walked t-that path?" he stutters with a spit before he calms himself and explains in a stupid game like explanation with a fervor filled voice
"IT MUST'VE BEEN FATE THAT HAD LED YOU HERE BO-GIRL, I HAVE BEEN AWAITING YOUR COMING FOR A HUNDRED YEAAAAAARS~"
Seriously... what kind of shitty plotline is this? The old man calms himself before he continues in a less fervor filled voice

Quest completed
Old man's needs
Rank: D
You have reached the cave of the hero using the path of balance, the first time in history.
Reward: He offers you admission into the faction of the "Carriers of the Hero's Will" and for taking the path of balance, he offers you a supposedly legendary sword.

You have gained completely rusted and deteriorated 'legendary' sword 1d4 (This sword may have once been some kind of legendary sword but time has taken its toll)
hmm? A possible quest maybe? Either that or you're getting trolled hard by the game...

You request more information about this "Carriers of the Hero's Will" faction however the old man simply states that he can tell you nothing until you complete the joining ritual.

"Break the tombstone? Are you insane, its a monument to one of the 13 heros who saved the world. No one could be insane enough to do something like that. On the actual question? The legends in our faction state that some great ancient evil will be released but that's probably well... balooney."
>>
>>34191991
"Oh, that's good."
"Because there was a guy who's going around breaking all of the tombstones, since OBVIOUSLY nothing will happen I guess it's okay to tell him and go and receive my commendation to the magic guild as well as magical training, right?"

"The hero? How can you possibly not remember what I have told you of the great hero when you utilize his skills?" Suddenly theres alot of pressure on you for a single moment before its quickly lifted as he explains
"The 9th hero was known as the hero of foolish courage, it is said he once challenged one of the gods themselves and when his existence was literally denied by the god. He simply put himself back together again through sheer effort. He fought for so long that the god just gave up and gave him the win"

You decide to follow your knowledge of grills to the best of your ability... after all you've played countless dating simulators after all. Who NEEDS real girl information anyways?
"umm... senpai, I'm thinking of joining but I really would like some information uguu. If you help me than..." you try in your best imitation, the imitation is somewhat ruined due to the fact that the shounen hero badge is making your voice sound heroic even when its meant to sound "charming". The reply by the old man can only be described by the complete lack of interest as he states
"What the fuck is wrong with you?..." well that was expected of norma-
"IS IT NOT OBVIOUS THAT YOUR CHARMS WILL NOT AFFECT ME FOR I AM A BREASTS MAN, ONLY D+ WILL INFLUENCE MY MIND" He screams in what you presume is more an attempt to convince himself than you. Never mind about the normal bit. You're dealing with an idiot.

"Please~" you try again in your best cutesy voice players nearby who had been drawn by the scream look at you with barely hidden disgust
"sigh... fine. The "Carriers of the Hero's Will" are those who shall forever remember the sacrifices and efforts of the heros. We do this by immortalizing their skills and guarding their tombs. I am only a C ranked member so our faction may do more but I do not know of it. Our members are hidden throughout THE WHOLE KNOWN WORLD...its just that we have a slight teeny weeny lack of members since the requirement is to live the trials of one of the caves of the hero and to also be under a geass when going through the ritual of joining. Which reminds me, doing the ritual of joining will put you under a geass of the "highest" rank forbidding you from doing any acts harmful to the hero's will (i.e. no doing anything related to breaking graves or any acts the heros deemed 'wrong' which changes from faction to faction). I am from the 9th faction out of the 13 factions, you will be to when you join"

okay. wow, that was one hell of an info dump you complain internally as you wish whoever had coded this part of the game to die a long and painful death for making you go through with it.
Guess you should accept, you do have the skill of that hero after all...
Just as you're about to accept, you remember about sulky glasses and his quest which you probably can't do anymore once you accept the faction invite...
Oh well, might as well betray the guy completely if you can't do his quest.
"On a completely unrelated note, I heard there was a guy who's going around breaking all of the tombstones and had already broken 5, your faction know anything about that" you say as casually as possible and...

The old man looks at you with shock before the familiar pressure once again is upon you... seriously how the hell does he do that
"What, how do you know about that evil archmage Glasses Master. The information on his desecrations should be at least C rank information... don't tell me, you're a consort of that vile villain?"
You quickly assure him that you are not as you try to fish for more information.

You quickly find out about a few details that sulky glasses bastard may have not told you
>hes a fucking archmage in elemental, summoning and portals
>the hero's will faction sent over 100 of their best and 3 grandmasters... all of them lost
>the faction had tried repeatedly to kill him and had even hired assassins
>He had told you that he went travelling around the lands and got nothing but boredom... you can presume with that good perception roll that he had done all this... easily

Fuck that sulky glasses bastard hard. Your thoughts are interrupted however of the old man asking for your hand so he can geass you and initiate you into the order.

You decide that it would be your best bet to

>>
>>34192739
the fact that he was even convinced when you're flat chested should tell you alot. The old bastard is quite literally a breast man.

It's supposedly a high level spell passed down that creates a geass for members their whole lifetime
in reality and game terms, its an advanced level double geass which is around the level of about a level 50 or so mage specializing in it

>>34193147
You decide that maybe that sulky glasses would be your best bet since you're aiming to be a mage and the bastard is a damn archmage, fuck geasses and this old pervert bastard.
"Sorry, it is unfortunate but I do not wish to join your faction" you state in your most regretful voice... its totally not like you were persuaded by the greed of having an archmage senpai or anything
>You have declined the offer to join "The Carriers of the Hero's Will"
>You have lost 30 points in regards to "The Carriers of the Hero's Will" faction
>You have unlocked the independence stat (1) for declining to join a major faction, acts of independence will further increase this.
>You have lost 30 Holy for your thoughts

The old man looks at you with regret however you feel no pressure and he makes no wisecracks. He suddenly looks much more like his age as he simply turns his large back to you and walks away. You think you can hear his tears...

Damn... how the hell can a NPC make you feel so bad especially when the NPC is a fucking pervert bastard.

You have decided to search for archmage sulky glasses senpai. He's not at his pub... you wonder where he is

Just because we're declining it doesn't mean we're declining it PERMANENTLY either. It's not like having a geass control your actions is something MAJOR or anything, right?

Oh, no shit from me I promise. Just genuinely curious. No problem at all on my end. That other guy sounded pretty mad though.
>>
>>34193444
Whilst you cannot find the archmage at the pub, a quick ask around and the locals quickly tell you "that bastard" has gone off just outside of town for a duel against a "girl". Most of the men in the pub swear to kill the bastard if he does anything to the girl although from what you know about the guy... its probably likely that these NPC drunks will just get rekt.

You quickly decide that the best course of action is to go to the archmage, fuck his duel, you've got some stuff to talk about with him. As you traverse through town and reach the guards, you see a crowd of fellow beginner players. A quick ask around tells you that the guards are preventing anyone from leaving until a magic duel is over. Most of the players are complaining about the event being stupid since it gives them no quest and locks them inside whilst some of the players are screaming about missing the event.

You decide to
>try and convince guards to let you through (give argument or convince method please)
>wait within town for the archmage, he'll come back sooner or later
>might as well talk to the players around
>talk to npcs
>wait within town whilst doing something (choose an activity e.g. shopping or looking for quests)

Think about WHY.
We're being put under a Geass we have nearly no information on, to join a organization we have nearly no information on and being compelled to do exactly as their rules command. Which is exactly why we wouldn't join immediately.

You decide that you need to see sulky glasses now, fuck his duel and fuck the guards stopping you to. You quickly struggle through the crowd to the gates where two guards stand. They see you and simply shake their heads stating
"Sorry newbie only those level 50+ are allowed out right now when those two crazies are going at each other. We don't want the town responsible for any deaths." he states in his best kindly voice. However its not like you didn't have a plan in a situation like this.

"I have vital information that the man participating in this duel needs, friend. He is a powerful archmage and instructed me to get this information to him as soon as possible, it's paramount he has it. I don't know about you, but I wouldn't want to be the one who prevented him from hearing my message." you calmly state in your best nonchalant voice.
The guard stares at you for a moment before sighing and stating
"Don't blame us if you die than" as he opens the gate a peek to let you slide through. The sight that greets you is like a battlefield... The whole plains area outside of town that is normally filled with rabbits and wild dogs is completely empty of life besides two lone individuals.
Sulky glasses bastard with his golden glasses with a bored expression, his clothes look perfectly fine even through hes supposedly been fighting in a duel
A young teenaged girl with fire red hair in makeshift mage robes with an enraged expression which is even more unladylike than you are
The areas around sulky glasses is completely filled with charred holes and mounds of burning grass yet the area within 30 or so cm within the guy is completely without damage, an oasis within the battlefield.
"You think you can just laugh at me? I'll show you the absolute talent of the Reinsworth family and burn you to a crisp" calls out the girl as a giant fireball appears before her. You had heard that most magic within this world...

Glorious. Clearly best sempai material.

... required chants (unless you were a player in which case you simply clicked the spell) yet the girl had so easily created a fireball the size of your head within a second's notice. The girl roars as she chucks the fireball at sulky glasses however the fireball dissipates as it gets near him. Throughout all of this, he's simply looking at her with boredom.

You're about to try and get their attention when both suddenly notice you. You're about to introduce yourself when
"Oh you're here, got any details?" calls out the sulky glasses bastard in a bored drone as if he was at a tea party and was relaxing... You're about to reply before you feel the pointed glare from your side
"Oh... so she must be your apprentice" says the girl slowly as she suddenly grins manically. In an instant five fireballs are in the air around her. Each are the size of your head and

The five fireballs race through the sky towards you, a dash to the right allows you to dodge the first, a dash to the left lets you dodge the second, a jump using all your skill avoid one more however whilst you're in the air and falling... the final fireball strikes a glancing blow across your shoulder as a system message prompt comes up showing that
>You have lost 200 health
fuck, I thought I had dodged most of that you think as you crash down into the ground.

Your mind flashes with the possibility of rushing the crazy fire grill mfw I still have got no comments about the name with your foolish courage ability however you promptly realise a simpler and better solution.
Fire grill can't beat sulky glasses barrier (or you assume its his barrier)>ergo its safe near sulky glasses. Your body pushes itself with all the additional artificial agility it has from the 8 points of agility as it dashes towards sulky glasses, throughout all of this, sulky glasses the bastard is just looking bored. Fuck him, he may not be wanting to help you but his body is still useful as a shield
Your dash...

Considering one of her fireballs glancing against you did 200...
courage has various definitions and can be utilised in various ways depending on subjectives.
i.e. the "courage" to lie, the "courage" to run away, the "courage" to fight

>>34195042
Your dash brings you running past and behind the sulky glasses bastard just as over a dozen fireballs smash against sulky glasses... and dissipates into nothing. Seeing the situation from close up with a critted perception you realise that sulky glasses bastard is not using a barrier, no instead hes simply turning every fireball (or the fire from the fireball) that reaches near him into something else. He's not defending, no hes using his superior elemental abilities to completely nullify the crazy fire grills attacks. Well he may be a damn sulky bastard but you can't help but be impressed by his skill.
"You coward, stand and fight me!" screams out the girl before shes promptly shut off when a moving wall of wind smashes the air out of her lung as she flies a dozen metres. You hope that she isn't dead... after all the idiots at the pub are likely to cause alot of issues if she dies.

"So, now that the annoyance is gone, what do you want girl?" says sulky glasses as he turns to you

Finally you have a chance to talk with sulky glasses, you decide its time to
>show him the map/finish the quest

You decide that now is a good time as any to finish the damn quest and get some magical shit.
With a smile you nonchalantly state
"So mister super powerful archmage, what's my reward for succeeding your quest and giving you locations?"

His expression changes to what you presume is shock on his face for a second before its once again bored, he states
"Same offer as before girl, whether you know who I am or not changes nothing. You get your magical training, one of my better items and a letter of introduction to the mage guild one town over. Nothing more, nothing less. After all, theres no real reason for me to negotiate more when I can simply kill you where you stand right now" he says in a bored tone. You question him about the fact that he would than become red status (i.e. murderer status and killed on sight at most towns) only for him to smile and state
"Red status? You think that matters to me? Heres the thing girl, with the right contacts and a bit of gold, even the supposed spokespeople of the gods can be bribed. Red status means nothing to me" he explains as if the fact he revealed wasn't something major. All with his normal bored tone.

"Now than, show me the way girl and you'll have your reward" he commands as you sigh inwardly and reveal the map. He stares at the map and all of a sudden you're shown a quite amazing sight, his previously bored looking face has now turned into an expression of pure joy? no it wasn't joy it was more of a crazed glee. Suddenly theres fire in his eyes as he says in a voice full of enthusiasm
"Thanks girl, my magical pet shows me that you are indeed telling the truth or what you at least believe is the truth" Magical pet? What? Hes standing by himself...
"Whilst it may be wrong, I should at least reward your efforts. I will teach you the basics of one magic.You know my past so you know what I'm best at teaching... of course teaching one of the other magics is also possible but I'm of a 'lesser' talent within those fi

Note: Portal magic is not fucking teleportation and you can't just use portals to randomly teleport to places you've never been to so fetch quests (that are in a new area) still will take time since you have to get there (although you can portal home)

>>34196396
"I choose portal magic" you say as memories of those fucking fetch quests in your past that take forever come to your mind.
"Alright let me explain the usage of por-" you promptly click the skip button that appears with the system prompt. You remember when you used to read the lore of the games... you wasted hours upon hours and... wasted time you could've spent on other things.
"...and therefore I will now give you the skill at using portals" he finishes after taking a breath as if he had just said some kind of long speech. You ready yourself for some kind of training montage however it seems at moments like these, the fact that its a game really shines through. A system prompt screen shows in front of you
>You have learned beginner (level 1: 0%) portal magic.
>Your affinity with portal magic is slightly below average so you will suffer a penalty of raising it 20% slower.
>You have gained passive magic: Extra dimensional holding space beginner (level 1: 0%)
>You have gained magic: Lesser Permanent Portal Creation beginner (level 1: 0%)
>You have gained magic: Lesser Temporary Portal Creation beginner (level 1: 0%)
>You have failed to understand the principles of lesser fast-combat portals
>You have failed to understand the principles of lesser inter dimensional shift

A whole series of system prompts quickly spam across your eyes, man its at times like these that you recognise... player characters are really without a doubt cheat characters.

Sulky glasses "senpai" looks at you with what you presume is mild disappointment (you can't tell since he's back to his "I am bored" face) yet he continues speaking as his hand dissapears into what appears to be a rift before promptly reappearing.
"Hmmm... seems I've got three items that I don't need right now and would be useful to you. Do you want a weapon, an accessory or some form of clothing? Of course I can also offer you some additional training instead.

It seems that you have the choice of getting some kind of item or forgoing the item for some additional training.

When you ask him, he replies that he could try but it would mean forgoing an item.

>>34197011
You decide that this may be your only chance in awhile without going on a super long chain quest (and boy do you know about chain quests) to solve this shitty issue with the amulet.
"Please help me get rid of this damn amulet. Its been stuck on me and has some kind of course" you ask as you point to the bronze chain and skull.
"Hmm... I'm not that good with enchantments or what not but I guess I can give it a try" he says with his normal boredom as his hand reaches towards the amulet however... BOOM!
an explosion like sound rings out from the amulet towards sulky glasses "senpai" as hes blown back over a hundred yards into the distance out of sight.
A cascade of system screen shows in front of your eyes as your health quickly reaches towards zero... you get a feeling that the boom blast was not even aimed at you and that you had simply got the aftereffect... however it seemed that your health whilst decreasing was also rapidly increasing. You manage to make out one of the screens stating that you were under
>Advanced level holy heal
and you were sure that you were under more than a dozen more both heals, buffs yet also curses.
"Hmm interesting" says a voice with a smile as you see the not-sulky glasses senpai standing at your side completely unharmed. Didn't he get blown away? How the hell did he get back so fast? Oh wait... you see the still standing redish tear as you realize he had used a portal to come back. Fuck, this was more crazy than you thought.

Nearby at the gate, you can see over a few dozen players and NPCs alike staring the spectacle in various stages of awe and shock.

Sulky glasses once more reaches his hand forward as he tells you
"I can either suppress the curse mostly or destroy the amulet. I cannot seem to fix the problems it has. Which do you prefer?"

Well if your knowledge of video games is anything... it would probably not be the best idea to destroy a possible unique (if it is indeed only you who got the piece of shit) plot hook for a possible chain quest.
"Please suppress it sulky glasses sen- I mean please suppress it Archmage Bob sir" you blurb out whilst half dizzy from the headache of all those system prompts getting spammed at you.
"Did you just call me...? you know what, I'm just going to pretend I didn't hear that... suppress it is." he states that whilst giving you a weird look before shouting "SUPPRESS!" in true chuuni fashion.
The cascade of windows quickly stops as you collapse to pitch blackness.
>You are currently unconscious (you may not take any actions and suffer penalties to all aspects) Timer: 6 hours

You stretch yourself within the dim room for a second before going straight for the 20 year old computer near you. Its dark however you were never one to waste electricity and you were certainly not opening any windows to give the sun a shot at burning your skin and retinas. With a slow hum your computer boots up, you quickly click on internet explorer as you begin your research into portal mages.
After 2 or so hours of searching (turns out that portal magic was not that popular of a specialization for most mages due its lack of combat ability) you find out some information from the few portal mages that both exist and are willing enough to release information without using a paywall.
After awhile of analyzing you come to some realizations.
You really really should not have chosen the portal mage... reason?

Portal mages main stats
Luck, Int and Magic resistance. You had never even heard of the stat magic resistance until now (since you presumed it was covered under int) and a bit of research shows that its a common stat most mages have unlocked.
agi seemed to be the dump stat for most portal mages as once you had learned moderate fast-combat portal, agi was worthless.
str had some disagreements between the different builds, of the three builds that you have seen.
One focused on producing permanent portals (he states str is worthless)
One focused on using portals as a side character (as transport) for his main and friends (he states that str is only worthwhile if you need the char to survive a bit extra until your main char arrives)
One used portals in combat combining it with strength (he states str is just as important as int and luck. He states that agi in the early game is alright but near useless once you arrive at moderate fast-combat portals)

The good part, your int was pretty decent, the bad part was that you had focused on agi somewhat when it was a dump stat... the worst part? Your luck which you still couldn't raise...

Just ooc fyi: Bob the archmage can do gilgamesh with combat portals (since hes at -spoilers- rank) however like any sane person, he doesn't since that would mean he would than have to go fetch all the shit he fired.
>>
>>34198188
Well just have to think of ways to make it work.
>>
>>34198198
Can't he just summon it back? He's a fucking archmage. Act like it.
>>
>>34198168
AGI is still useful for permanent portal build. Travelling to unlock new areas takes time.

Does AGI affect reactions speed, and how many objects/spells we can control?
>>
Guys, counter magic, though. Think of all the utility it has!
>>
>>34198246
Even less than portal magic outside pvp?
>>
>>34198246
I think you mean counter projectile

We should wait until we get something better than below-average potential before we start declaring a magic school our specialty.

Just saying.
>>
>>34198198
Why couldn't he simply have a "bag of holding" connected to a huge warehouse, in which he could reverse the portal and throw things at the enemy?

It makes sense to be honest.

Also, you didn't explain exactly how luck factors into portal Mage.
Nor did you really explain how we didn't know of the magic stat, since WE ALREADY DID RESEARCH ON THIS GAME BECAUSE OF OUR HIGH SCHOOLER BACKGROUND
>>
>>34198255
The world has cursed items and pissed off mages. You don't think that counter magic is useful?
>>
>>34198278
It's true that the one wizard we know appears to have no sense of right and wrong.
>>
>>34198188
You can use your own build though. Info is only from other players. Plus you didn't even learn combat portals (fuck that 56 average).
>>34198168
With the research on that done, you quickly begin googling about the "Carriers of the Hero's Will" organization. A surface search of google gets you nothing much however when you go on online IRC and on various image boards (e.g. 4chan) you get a much different answer.
Everyone who had met them had joined them (except for 1 or 2 who apparently did not meet the alignment requirements or a few who were already part of an opposing organization).
Whilst responses are mostly mixed and of pretty shit-tier information. You get enough information and with analyzing, you can tell the following facts.
>The 1st faction are quite literal white knights. They all have super high leadership skills and special abilities to do with holy/leadership/what not
>The 9th (the faction of the old mentor) is apparently the hardest to get into with only people's secondary characters often making it as primary characters who meet them often fail the requirements (e.g. fight against a dragon and win... at level 1. Having to die 10 times to open a door. Impossible riddles with no answers. Other idiotic things that only those with meta knowledge can possibly pass). Their abilities have to do with as quoted "bein a fucking retard and you will be stronk".
>Everything the old mentor told you is true
>The geass prevents you from doing ANYTHING (even fucking thinking) about options that go against the faction (there was even an ethics debate here)
>They are extremely influential and have members scattered everywhere
>They're not that powerful due to some event making alot of the leaders dieing for some unknown reason (you know from your own knowledge that this was because of sulky glasses "senpai")
Most other factions were ignored as you did not wish to spend too much time researching.
2/3
>>
>>34198275
he does, thats why he can do gilgamesh. However he would still have to fetch all the items after he fired them since unlike gilgamesh they aren't connected to his gob.
>>34198219
I meant his summoning specialty as in summoning monsters/minions/demons
>>34198275
you knew of magic stat, you didn't know of magic resistance stat since you had presumed that was covered under int.
>>34198275
Think about it, your moving through dimensions and what not. You really think luck has nothing to do with it?

You sigh inwardly as you close the computer and put on your best clean clothes. Your mother's in a coma and can't see your clothes but... you still had to wear good clothes. You do not like going near the hospital however you have no choice, its time to visit her. You exit the door into the glaring hateful sun and begin walking towards the station in the distance. You actively avoid all people and any possibilities of physical interaction. It's times like these that you really do seem like a hikkimori...

The trip to the hospital on the train is mostly uneventful however as you reach the reception desk... you suddenly hear a rich feminine voice from your side. You look and see an average looking woman with glasses in a business suit sitting near a few other visitors. It seems that she was complaining to the other nearby visitors about something however you barely notice as you quickly walk to the reception desk.

"I would like to see patient C235 please" you state in your best casual voice. The receptionist simply nods, taps away on the computer and than tells you that you may visit after an hour... it seems that she was under minor surgery right now.
Do you wait with

There are games that have fully formed wikis in *days*, for games with a fraction of the playerbase.

>>34198769
You decide that fuck standing up or annoying the receptionist who's on his job, you're going to take a seat... and possibly oogle at the business woman.
As you sit down besides a family, you can faintly hear a rich voice from your left
"...and than w-well you see, I was just normally doing my j-job but than comes this real meanie she-goat who makes me lose m-my job" she half-sobs as the other people around her give her words of sympathy and a guy even attempts to hug her... fails of course since hes pushed away. Why does she seem oddly familiar? Ahh whatever. Probably just your mind playing tricks on you, after all you had never even seen her face before today.
Well anyhow, whilst you wait its time to

Fire girl is the one that stupidly challenged an archmage and got killed for it.
>>
>>34199432
Thats an NPC though dummy.
>>
>>34199432
She's an NPC... archmage and her were both NPCs

After getting yourself a free coffee (least they could do what with how much you pay them). You decide that you might as well go socialise with the girl, you can understand the whole unluc- wait a fucking minute. You could remember that rich (and fake) voice anywhere, its that fucking GM bitch who wouldn't let you take a third option back at the Hero's Cave. Any aspect of pity you had for her disappears as you try your best to not laugh out loud. You slowly walk near her as she babbles on about the she-witch that had lost her, her job. About how she was evil, cruel, raped babies, you know the usual bullshit (okay maybe she didn't mention raping babies). The audience seems enraptured by her "sad" plight however you know within your heart that she got what she deserved.

You barely hold back the chuckle when she describes all the atrocities you did ingame which she had tried to stop before she was kicked out of her job due to being "too kind".

You get a feeling that it might be a bit fun to mess with her, you do have an hour after all.
You'll mess with her by

You decide that the best method is to plant doubts within the audiences mind, throughout the whole hour (yes she was sobbing for a fucking hour, you'd think a story about getting fired would take 10 minutes but she goes on and on as if its an epic). When she tells of how the she-witch happily killed whole towns of NPCs for fun, you tell nearby audiences in a whisper that its weird since you play the game and are from that town. When she tells of the ugly and flat appearance (she was right about one of these at least) of the girl, you remember precisely the memory (with a notepad and pen from the table nearby) so that when she tells of the appearance again, you whisper of the contradictions between the two descriptions. Although the woman did not seem to realize it, within half an hour most of the audience were having doubts about her story. By the end of the hour, no longer were there many looks of pity amongst the audience and some were even questioning her about specific parts of the story.
She seems distressed as you smile and slowly creep awa-
"Heya" calls out a cute voice as a ironlike grip catches you on your shoulder just as you arrive at the elevator. Goddamnit, what kind of crazy strength is this for an business woman...
"Umm... lets have a talk shall we" she says in the same cute voice as she drags you inside the elevator. You attempt to complain to the receptionist however he simply laughs and says
"Ahh, youth. Don't forget guys room C235 and C236". Damnit, what kind of bad luck is this that this bitch's visiting room is right next to yours...
As you both enter the elevator and the door closes, her expression changes as she simply asks you in a commanding tone
"Who the hell are you?"

"ahaahaha" she half laughs and half giggles as the grip on your shoulder relaxes
"Ahh, guess I fucked right up there. Probably wasn't a good idea to lie in such detail but a girl gotta rant sometimes..." she says in what you presume is her normal non-"I'M GOING TO KILL YOU" voice.
Sigh... landmine avoided there, that was close. Somehow you get the feeling that its probably not best to piss of a girl with a grip of steel like hers. She suddenly grabs your arm in a friendly manner before she begins to tell the "real" story
"Since you stopped my ranting before than you'll listen to me this time right?" she asks as she breaks any form of mental resistance you have. You nod dumbly as she starts
"You see, mum and dad..." fuck, this isn't just any story, its her life story.

"You see mum and dad always wanted a cutesy girl to play with so thats how I acted back in elementary. All cutesy and everything, even still got my old frilly dress, ahaha. Than came first year highschool and I met this really cute boy who basically just made your heart go THUMP... well anyhow, highschool love story later... I got dumped for being too girly girl. So you know what I think, I decide to go all macho and become a full tomboy to get him... well spent 5 years doing that only for him to get snatched by some muscled vixen. I mean I beat her and everything but he still won't go out with me and says shit like I'm crazy so I do what any girl does in situations like these and than... I give up on getting a date in real life and focus on virtual. A few years later and I get scouted by this super awesome company to become their GM... BEFORE THIS FUCKING LITTLE BITCH MAKES ME LOSE MY JOB."
welp. You wish you hadn't decided to listen to her neverending story since by the time shes finished, you've got a slight headache. Seems that you're not to used to getting talked to IRL. But still, guess she was just your everday girl in love and under family pressure. You had almost expected her to be some kind of manipulative evil bitch... either that or shes lieing.
You decide that you should probably ask the most sensible question
You ask her why shes at the hospital and she replies,
"Oh remember that boy I told you about? Well... I might've totally accidentally broken a few things when I got angry with him. Guilt and all that right? Mom seems to expect I feel guilty so I come visit him every week or so and even pay for his hospital bills"
Okay... the woman was insane. Not just everyday level insane like you are, nope she was completely utterly a nutjob.

I don't see why we wouldn't be all in for being a trap, we solve the /u/ battles, we can still manipulate lonely neckbeards while retaining some masculinity, its niche as fuck, we'll be kawaii, we keep our dick, cosplay.

Shit man this is the only way.

>>34200654
You decide that whilst shes "slightly" insane, it would probably be the best bet to get her contact details (i.e. email) since she used to be a GM and all. Of course, you probably will not be able to meet her ingame unless you change your appearance one way or another. And there was the whole issue of you being a girl in game... oh well
"Sure, I'll be happy to play with you. Just chuck me an email and when I have time, I will play with you" you say in your most casual voice as if you're totally not hiding anything. She looks at you with suspicion before you quickly blurt out
"I'm currently busy, my mom is in a coma right now and I barely have time to play games anymore..." she looks startled by your proclamation before quickly switching to a look of pity. Somewhere in the back of your mind, you recognise the look as being unnatural.

The two of you travel for awhile talking of meaningless chit-chat (and making sure to exchange emails) before you seperate and enter your two rooms. You pass a doctor who attempts to speak with you however you simply ignore him and enter the room.
You step into the clear white and sterile room. Before lays what was- no what is your mother. No longer did she have her beauty (in your opinion), instead she was a bald lifeless husk hooked filled with and hooked up with various cybernetics which you can't even fathom they do.
Your eyes naturally avert her body as you tell of how you're going with your life, how everythings going, etc.
After awhile you have run out of things to say and with a long weary sigh, you leave without a single glance back.
There's a doctor waiting outside for you who tells you various statistics and details however the important detail is as always
"...nearly 0% chance of her gaining conciousness" Funny how easily a life is classified into statistics... You could possibly wait for the woman who you now know is called Jessica however your brain stops any attempts at staying within the hospital as you rush out.
Your trip home is just as uneventful as your trip to the hospital.

You arrive into your room as you slam the door behind you. Its time for some VR and hopefully forgetting any real life troubles in the process...

Did we crit another perception check or is she this shitty at hiding her true emotions?

On a different note, can we remove the poorly invested points in agility over to something else?

So.. uh. Is our amulet a memorable feature?

I'm assuming it's not. Why do we even have that thing? Can we ask GM lady about it?

>>34200690
you know nothing about the X-grade foolish poison however you do know that the Max-grade (one lower than X) foolish poison basically turns whoever drinks it into a reckless idiotic fool for a few hours regardless of how high their resistance is.

The X-grade Courage potion according to the black market item sites state that it greatly enhances a user's ability (as long as its courageous) and seems to temporarily unlock a skill and effect.

With a click on the face icon, you show your stats showing
Race: Human
Faction: The Carriers of the Heros Will does not like you (-30)
Profession: None
Alignment: 30 Holy
Title: New player 5/7 Y(1 week of safety from PVP, going past the starting area breaks this), The shounen hero (+5 courage, +5 foolishness, +5 fame) this is currently equipped
Level: 7
Fame: 11+5
Health: 250/250
Mana: 250/250
Strength: 2
Agility: 8
Intelligence: 5
Luck: 0
Courage: 7+5
Foolishness: 7+5
Independence: 1
Endurance: 3
Magic Resistance: 3

You have 8 unassigned skill points
Skills:
Foolish Courage: Intermediate (By attempting what you assume is both a foolish yet a courageous act, you will increase all stats by 50% until the act is finished)
One who overcomes bad luck: Beginner (You receive a +2 in all stats as long as you're in an unlucky situation)

Magic:
beginner (level 1: 0%) portal magic.
Portal magic is the magic to connect two geographic locations through the usage of portals.
Your affinity with portal magic is slightly below average so you will suffer a penalty of raising it 20% slower.

>passive magic: Extra dimensional holding space beginner (level 1: 0%)
+20 bag space, Items can be summoned through voice at 10 seconds delay (basically no faster than using options to get the item)

Lesser Permanent Portal Creation beginner (level 1: 0%)
Using charged magic crystals, you can create a permanent portal between two places. As this is low level, you can only create them within 5km of each other. As this is low level, charges are enough for (1 use if basic quality crytsal, 2 uses if average, 3 uses if above average, 4 uses of high quality, 5 uses if legendary). After of which, magic crystal will need charging.
Approx 3 hours to create each portal (6 hours total)

>Lesser Temporary Portal Creation beginner (level 1: 0%)
Create a temporary portal between two places that you remember clearly within your memories. Max distance is 10km, portal disappears after 5mins.
Approx 2 hours to create the portal


Hmm... it seemed that there was new stat called endurance that you somehow gotten? Weird... you don't remember getting the stat. Same with that magic resistance stat... You wonder when you could have possibly gotten them

Seems that the sulky glasses bastard has slipped you the letter in your sleep. You silently give him thanks before promptly standing up, you're about to attempts robbing the place however you are interrupted by an inn keeper wearing fine clothes greeting you.
"Hello madam, your "friend" has left and you are due to check out now that you have awakened. Do you wish for an extension? It is at the low price of 20 silvers per night" he says with a sauve bow.
You quickly decide on the best course of action... you question the man. He promptly tells you
>room was paid for by sulky glasses bastard
>you're still in the beginner town, you're simply in the noble area
>Sulky glasses bastard has left and the man doesn't know where he is
>He knows a path to allow you to leave the area without being spotted as you are "quite embarassing"

You decide that fuck the game's social class systems and what not. You're walking straight through the front door. But first, might as well "profit" a bit.
"Oh I'm sorry, but I feel really 'sticky' right now, would it be okay if I used your bathroom?" you ask vaguely as the man looks at you with horror for a second before quickly nodding his head and than bowing. He quickly leads you to a luxurious tiled room with a bath in the middle and a extremely comfortable looking bathrobe hanging on the side. Hmm... that robe is totally yours once you finish bathing. You take a long and luxurious bath within the steaming waters making sure to bath ALL your aspects. After you finish, you grab the bathrobe chucking it inside your inventory
>You have lost 1 holy
>You have unlocked the stealth stat (0), "sneaky" acts will increase this. You have not truly unlocked this stat, no points may be placed into it.
>You have gained comfortable silk bathrobe (Stolen). It may be worth something if you can sell it without getting caught or traced back. Looks very comfortable. If guards see this than you will go to jail or must pay a fine and give all stolen items.
>Please note player that repeated thievery will turn the status yellow even if there are no witnesses

A bunch of system prompts pop up however the only thing you seem to notice is the item message. muahahaha you shall become a great a terrible thief, this was only the first stage in your gran-

With your master theft complete, you walk out to the awaiting "butler" (since calling him man is terribly unidentifiable for your conscious).
"You're done I presume miss and ready to follow?" he states as if you following him has already been decided.
"Nope, I'm walking out the front door, toodles" you wave as you promptly walk past the man towards the exit.
He stammers after you however you ignore both the his attempts at persuading you with words or persuading you with force (turns out agility is useful after all).
You descend the overly ornate staircase passing a few "peacocks" of colour which you presume are nobles along the way.
As you reach the ground floor and reception, your presence causes a whole bunch of stares directed at you. You hear various "whispers" as you walk towards the front door
"Oh how bold, for a commoner to not only do THAT with her betters but also flaunt it by walking out the..."
and so on and so forth. Its at times like these that you really hope there exists some kind of quest to change appearance. Just as you're about to leave by opening the front door however.
A young man dressed in an explosion of purple grabs you and turns you to face him. The name above her head identifies that hes a player. The first thing he says to you is...
"Are you insane brat?" well... that was unexpected. It was not coded arrogance like the NPCs, this guy was clearly arrogant without any help from the system.
"Don't you know that only players great enough to complete a quest for the 'lady' are allowed in here? The very fact that you're here is an insult on your betters. Both those (he stares at your clothes) financially and skill (his eyes turn red) wise" he twits whilst you resist the urge to punch him in the face

You decide, fuck this bastard and fuck your pride too. No hitting, no insults, no laughing, no begging for quests, no reaction. You're just going to walk away and leave the faggot and his arrogance here.
You turn away from the faggot and promptly began leaving. His jeers and the laughs of the surrounding nobles go unnoticed by you as you exit the door to find...
An insane image flooded with luxurious colours everywhere. It seemed that this really was the noble district. You can see 3 possible stores within your sight althrough exploring may reveal more. Of course, it is unlikely you can ever afford anything with your measly 3 bronze but maybe they have quests or what not?
