10 Chapter 8 (Hidden Pieces)

"Yes, I might be a help to you so let's do that first because we got four (4) more hours of hunting so we can spare a little time for that can we?" (Axel)

.

Five (5) mins passed but still, they didn't get what to do so it's hard for me to just tell them what to do.

.

"If only I can see your stats this will be easy." *Sigh* (Axel)

.

"But don't worry just dictate your initial stats to me right now." (Axel)

.

"Okay so my stats are" (Czina)

.

"Strength +16 (+8) Defense +24 (+12) Agility +10 Magic +3 Intelligence +22 Luck +4" (Czina)

.

"Wow, that item you got really add four (4) worth of levels to your stats." (Czina)

.

This changes really feels like a fantasy game and novel it makes my heart race.

.

"It's so exhilarating!" (Axel)

.

"Huh?" (Czina)

.

"Ahh, nothing I'm just happy right now." (Axel)

.

"Okay, by the way, where do I put my stats" (Czina)

.

"Oh right! There are three (3) options for you to pick." (Axel)

.

"First (1st) is put all of your stat points into defence (def) to make you sturdier in fights like earlier that's the basis for every tank in games and fantasy novels I knew."

.

"Mmmm"(Czina)

.

"Second (2nd) is for you to balance your strength and defence to build up Life points (Hp) and Defense (Def) at the same time and this is more or less the greatest asset for a tank like you."(Axel)

.

"I see, but what's the third (3rd) option if the second (2nd) option is the best?" (Czina)

.

"Yup that's what I want to see from you Czina the curiosity!" (Axel)

.

"So let's imagine what happened earlier and think where is the flaw, what made the fight a little hard?" (Axel)

.

While Czina is thinking really hard Aki already know her answer and said

.

"Axel-san I think I lack in my firepower and composure so the fight got a little hard for us is that correct?" (Aki)

.

"Bullseye!" (Axel)

.

"If you lack firepower where do you think you have to spend your stat points?"(Axel)

.

"Ooohhh so that's it Axel-san!?" (Aki)

.

"Yes, and your composure can be fixed by yourself, Aki remember that every fight means 'kill or be killed' is that clear?" (Axel)

.

"I see!" (Aki)

.

"Just to sure dictate me your stats" (Axel)

.

"Ahh here my stats are" (Aki)

.

"Strength +13 Defense +10 Agility +27 (+12) Magic +4 Intelligence +23 Evasion +10 (+10)" (Aki)

.

"I'm really envious to the two (2) of you you know? I have the lowest stats damn*t!" (Axel)

.

"Don't be sad Axel-san you'll have your own item later on hehe." *Smiles awkwardly* (Aki)

.

"Give at least +6 stat points into Strength and put the rest into defence you really got it low okay?" (Axel)

.

"Okay!" (Aki)

.

I'm like a guide in MMORPG games teaching beginners how to distribute their own stat points then Czina realize where she lacks

.

"I want to be faster than I am now Axel that's what I lack right. The speed to cover my party members more quickly, is that correct?" (Czina)

.

"I'm glad that you know it well Czina." (Axel)

.

This is going well and it won't be hard for us to keep grinding our stats as well as our battle sense from now on.

.

"Czina right now you don't have to worry about defence stats so put +7 stat points into Agility and +3 to strength this will boost your speed and improve your strength okay?" (Axel)

.

As they update their own stats I turn my gaze into the vast plains where countless people are hunting various monsters. There are people who enjoy hunting slimes because of how easy they are to hunt, some are chasing swift rabbits and on the other side of the plains, some are having a battle with plain rats.

.

"Wow even normal plain rats are really big compared to earth's normal rat" (Axel)

.

As I am mesmerizing the view of people trying their best to hunt my two (2) party members seems to be done updating their stats.

.

"Axel, we're done what now?" (Czina)

.

"Now? We are going to evaluate ourselves"

.

"Huh? what do you mean?"

.

They both got confused from what I said then I continue

.

"We are going to evaluate how much our body changed because of our stats." (Axel)

.

"You do want to know how much power you become right?" (Axel)

.

As they got what I meant we started to hunt the basic monster in the plains, the Slimes. The colour of the slimes are different from each other it Blue, Red, yellow, green, white, black and brown and it seems there is a meaning behind it.

.

Inside the slime, there's a little ball that appears to be the centre of the slimes. Like manga and anime that gives the impression of being the main life of slimes so I told my part members to attack that part and it does the trick.

.

.

[You have killed a Green slime]

.

.

[5 exp points will be given to each of the party members]

.

.

"So that's the trick for killing slimes but why is the experience points are so low?" (Czina)

.

"Czina-neesan I read this before it seems that it's a basic monster for low-level players to hunt so that's why it's experience is quite low." (Aki)

.

"So that's why there is no party that wants to hunt this thing." (Czina)

.

"Yea this monsters gives little experience and no battle sense at all so nobody wants to kill this thing but I'm curious why there are many colours." (Axel)

.

I want to investigate more so I said

.

"Let's split up and hunt as many slimes as we can so we can test our strength a little, got it?" (Axel)

.

They both nodded so we split up and I start my investigation. I first investigated the Brown slime it seems there is no meaning with their colours but that's what I thought.

.

When I tried to slash the brown slime it's blob-like body hardens in order to block my attack and to my suprise, I halt my attack and I murmur 'There really is something with its colour'. I decided to catch the slime instead and snatched the little ball in the centre of the slime.

.

I discover something so special.

.

(Brown Slime's Core) [Consumables]

A core of a Brown slime that has a great defence against physical attacks. Upon consuming this core you will give you +3 Defense stats. There is a limit for a human body to consume such item so be careful (Limit: 10)

.

.

[Attention! You have unveiled the hidden piece number six (6) 'Slime core']

.

.

[You and your party members will gain 5 more limits in consuming slime cores per every other slime]

.

.

[Attention! Party member 'Date Aki' unveil the hidden piece number three (3) 'Currency' (Chain hidden piece)]

.

.

[You and your party members can now use one of my (God's Eyes) function 'The Shop']

.

.

[Your team will be rewarded 100 gold coins and can now get coins from monsters]

.

.

[Activating the achievement 'The First']

.

.

[There is an item in the shop that will let you see the information of others and monsters 'Hidden piece number four (4)']

.

.

[Current Hidden piece unfold (4/50)

.

Then Date Aki came running in my direction and said something

.

"AXEEEEEEL-SAAAAAAAN I FOUND SOMETHING!!" (Aki)
