10 +10 Privileges

It was break time ; in the middle of my middle school's corridor , I walked alone. I could feel my classmates gazes making me feel as if I was not a human , as if I wasn't one of them.

"Wait , don't talk with him. Don't you know what's he lik-"

"Really the wors-"

"Just ignor-"

Ignoring those voices , I thought

'Sure is noisy today as well.'

A girl bumped into me. A cheerful , playful and energetic girl. To this day I really hoped she never bumped into me , talked with me and spent time with me.

'I really hoped you never gave me HOPE'

"Sera , sera wait. I- "

Waking up from the dream , I tried to catch a breath.

'Huff Huff Huff'

"Really that dream again , it's like a everyday thing now."

After few minutes I got ready for my university. After returning home , I took few energy drinks out of my refrigerator and placed them besides my bed on which I played Infinite.

"Greed Connect"

A white light took me to the home screen of greed. Choosing Infinite. I was teleported to Begginers Town of Xerus.

'It's been 9 days since I started playing Infinite.'

I did kind of felt like I was holding Rin back cause he helped me a lot of times with the game. Rin was 1 or 2 level ahead of me. Even though being a beastman leveling up was hard cause of the large Exp Points requirement , Rin made it up with his hardcore grinding.

I learnt a lot of skills especially magic skills. Most of them were basic magic skills which were 'Fireball' and 'Wind Slash'. But the one I got from the Secret Quest of Gildia was one of the best skill 'Dark Lord's Blessings'.

I was truly overwhelmed by Rank A skills power. Well it took us 6 hours to beat her. She was really tough too and worth it. Getting an upgradeable skill in Infinite was very hard and had low probability.

Today Rin was going tell me about the beta testers privileges. I was interested in seeing what are the privileges but at the same time had some doubts about for

'Why are they giving us privileges? isn't getting to about game already the greatest rewards?'

"So what were the privileges you were going to tell me about?"

"Ah yes. Their are a lot of privileges as we are helping them with our feedback to improve their game. They've added another set of privileges. Wait let me show you the list. They uploaded it on the Infinite closed community tab your account is also added but I guess you've not checked it yet."

"Oh by the way don't be surprised by the rewards we will be getting."

Clicking some links on his floating window a window opened before us. The content of this window were -

「

We at I.G. Group really appreciate the feedback you're giving us to improve Infinite. To show that we respect your efforts here are some of the privileges you'll get as a beta tester.

• You'll get a limited edition set with some powerful abilities. We can't make it too powerful as it would change the balance of system.[Non-transferable]

• You'll know most of information about Infinite as you'll be beta testing for 1 year.

Note : This some of the details may change as we make the game balance better.

• Special 'Infinite Theme' for your I.G. VR Set will be rewarded to you. [Non-transferable]

• And last of all , you'll be given an option to create and design your own weapon , skill or item which would be one of a kind. Again we can't make an weapon , skill or item which would disturb the balance of system.

This is our way to show that we are thanks for all your hard work. Thanks for the hard work you are doing and you will do.

Note : If you miss 1 monthly report you'll be kicked out of the beta testing program.

"Huh!? For real!? Custom weapon , skill or item. Rin you better discuss with me before you make the decision for this. I don't want you to be stuck in a item increasing Intelligence stat for a beastman like you."

"Oh sure I was going to ask for your help anyways I was just a little uncomfortable with asking for help from a genius like you."

Hearing the word 'Genius' made me suspicious of where he heard that about me.

"Genius? Me? I'm just a average person. I'm doing this as repaying you for helping me with the installation of VR and for helping me in this game. By the way where did you hear that about me?"

Avoiding making any eye contact Rin said ,

"N-Nowhere from my perspective you're j-just an intelligent person. Y-You know I'm pretty dumb just ignore that."

'He's making it so obvious.'

"Rin I trust you and when the times comes I'll tell you the things you don't know about me also hearing rumors will only mislead you."

"Oh w-why are you telling me all t-this?"

'Still acting are we. Well he's been with me from the start of university. I know he's a good guy.'

A smiled formed on my face.

"Nothing just letting you know also if you've any problems just tell me I'll be always there for you."

Finally looking at Rin smiled and said ,

"Of course man."

Saying that we went to the new forest 'Forest of Kin' that was in that standing between us and the 'Labyrinth of Frils'.

It took us another 17 days to reach the end of forest and discovering the 'Labyrinth of Frils'.

But at that time , we didn't knew that we were going to face a monster in the form of Human.
