Chapter 39

The hours passed and soon enough it was six am in the morning.

Jack stood silent in his room however his face was pulled into a smile.

'I did it' Jack thought as he looked at the clock on his wall.

It had taken him a while, mostly because of the high number of zombies however he had managed to complete the dungeon four more times so he could finish the weekly quest.

Opening the menu, Jack saw the mission.

[ Weekly Quests ]

[ Complete Zombie Dungeon five times [ 5/5 ] [ Claim ]

[ Rewards: 2 Perk Tickets ]

Quickly Jack claimed the tickets and opened his perk lottery menu.

He had decided that he would use them to try and get his second Legendary Perk.

[ Perk Gacha ]

[ Common Perk Roulette ]

[ Price: 1 Ticket ]

[ Rare Perk Roulette ]

[ Price: 3 Tickets ]

[ Legendary Perk Roulette ]

[ Price: 6 Tickets ]

Without wasting any time, Jack pressed on the rare perk roulette and saw the panel change to show a roulette once more.

The chances of getting a legendary perk were only 0.9% however Jack wasn't afraid because of his busted luck stat he was almost guaranteed to get it.

[ Ding ]

[ Preparing to spin Rare Perk Roulette ]

[ 1%... 18%... 54%... 86%... 100% ]

[ Spinning ]

And as soon as the loading bar was finished, the roulette started spinning at unimaginable speeds. Jack even with his vampire sight couldn't see any of the names on the roulette anymore.

Finally after waiting anxiously, Jack saw the roulette slowly slow down until it came to a stop at a small golden bar in the roulette.

[ Congratulations! ]

[ Legendary Perk has been acquired! ]

[ Perk will be given immediately]

Finally, Jack felt himself calm down as he released a sigh of relief.

Even with his luck, there was a small chance that he wouldn't hit the legendary perk and that would have been quite devastating if he had to say.

Finally, another loading bar showed up just like last time however he didn't worry as it quickly started filling up.

[ 1%... 64%... 98%... 100% ]

[ Ding! ]

[ User has gained: Justice ]

Jack almost glued his eyes to the panel as he kept reading the perk he had gained over and over.

'Just what the hell would a perk called Justice do?' Jack thought before he quickly opened his perk list and started reading its description.

[ Perk: Justice ]

[ Description: 

Passive: Gives the user the ability to tell right from wrong and the ability to judge evil against just.

Active: The user may unleash punishment on those judged as evil.

Once Punishment has started: The user's stats are doubled.

Penalty: If a user is fighting against the Just, the user loses 50% of his stats. ]

As Jack read through the entire thing, he felt ecstatic, the more he read the higher his joy grew.

At least until the last line, though Jack was depressed by the fact that his perk had a penalty, it also wasn't something he was greatly annoyed by.

'It's not actually that bad of a penalty, I simply have to be on the side of justice however the question is... Who decides what's just and what's evil?' Jack thought as he quickly realized the problem with his ability.

'If it's judged on the number of people that believe one side then I'm practically fucked if I fight against an army of people, if it's judged by the ability itself then that's also unpredictable as I don't know what morals the ability has. This is quite an annoying problem' Jack thought as he released a hum before quickly going to his settings and turning the ability off.

'I'll have to save it in a desperate situation or I could simply use its passive, still it's quite the powerful ability, it effectively doubles my stats which would mean I could reach levels beyond comprehension.' Jack thought as he imagined a version of himself who was twice as fast and strong as he was now and just couldn't.

It was already crazy just how powerful vampires were but twice that? It was simply outrageous.

*Sigh*

Releasing a sigh, Jack opened his status screen and looked at his level.

[ Level: 29 ]

'Leveling up also started to slow down tremendously after level 25, so it will take a while before I can get the second dungeon unlocked, still if I do this every night then by the end of the week, I should be able to reach it' Jack thought before turning his sight to the Stat points he had earned.

[ Status Points: 95 ]

'I'm just short of five points in order to evolve one of my SPECIAL stats to the next level.' Jack thought before adding on as he wondered.

'I guess it would be better to call the SPECIAL stats as grades instead of numeral stats considering that I have two now. Well, I'll just say stats for now but I should come up with a better system than just the numbers, maybe a letters system would be better?' Jack wondered before standing up from the bed.

Going to his closet, he quickly put down whatever he could find and took his backpack, unlocked his door, and started heading downstairs.

At times, Jack felt like this mansion was a prison made just for him however at other times he really didn't feel like he was imprisoned, in fact, the amount of love Esme had shown him the past week, had already been more than his own mother ever had.

As he went down, a thought passed through Jack's mind and he quickly turned the new perk he had gotten back on.

'Let's see what you guys are judged as' Jack thought as a small smile appeared on his face.
