Reading his new status, Nova nodded with satisfaction.

Now in all his stats he is better than an average human, he may even be better than a trained human.

Feeling cheerful, the system rang in his head with various bell sounds.

[*RING* Player, you currently have 5 stat points that you can spend to improve your stats, will you use them now?], the system asked.

With each level up, five stat points were mandatory until reaching level 10, which stats points would go up.

This was for constant player improvement in Legends Genesis and is one of the things that brought it to fame.

'At least in this, it's similar too'.

At the question of the system, Nova touched his chin, pinching it with his two fingers; now the chin was much thinner and more pronounced than before.

'I can save the stats in case of emergency,' Nova thought. 'But with my stats being so poor, it would be better to spend them now... Besides, to join that organization it would be the best option to spend them now.'

Confirming his decision, Nova spent his stat points to improve his status, each level giving his 5 stat points, at least it would be like that until she reached Level 15.

With that, Nova chose to increase his stamina by one point, his speed by two points, and his strength by two points, not touching Mana and Intelligence.

In the end, his status looked like this.

________

Checking again his new status, he can now be considered with a great strength to be reckoned with thanks to his mana, strength, and endurance.

If he were to currently face another Flaming Bull, he would be easily defeated in a matter of seconds, of course, using Copion to have fire immunity.

"Well, with this fact...", Nova continued. "I didn't pay that much attention to it before because of my Copion ability, but why is my intelligence separated? One is very low and one is relatively high, considering my level?"

Nova asked with intrigue and suspicion, he knew how important this skill was now, and all his life, having it low was a big disadvantage.

The intelligence stat is so crucial, as it is the stat related to body perception and control. Having a high intelligence stat makes you make the most of your other physical abilities and have great perception.

It is said by several players to be the second most important skill in the game since you can detect better traps, mana distortions, sense the presence of another person, etc.

[Player, you have your Intelligence stats like this because this is not the same world as the game you played, it is separated that way for several reasons] Explained the System.

[The main reason is that your intelligence itself is qualified in that stats, mental intelligence, and also the same as the one based on the game, you have 5 points of stats in perception and body control and 19 points in actual mental intelligence].

Nova listened to the system's explanation, finding the logic. He knew it was not the same world and he should be careful. These small differences only confirmed that.

But another thought crossed Nova's mind instantly, with curious eyes, he asked something essential that possibly totally change the game, in the world sense.

"System... Am I the only Player in this world? Are there more players?", Nova asked cautiously and suspiciously, swallowing saliva at the thought of a terrifying thought.

'If there are more players, that would be a problem...'

But he couldn't think much when the system quickly answered his question.

[Player, I am part of you, but currently, I don't think it's convenient to tell you this, I can only mention to you that yes, you are the only player, but at the same time you are not the only one].

The system's response left Nova confused, who could only sigh helplessly.

Whether he was the only one or not, this, he could interpret as him being unique in his degree, but, under his thinking and understanding, there were others similar to him.

He didn't know whether to feel thrilled or scared, he sure wasn't the kind of person who likes danger, but he couldn't stop an emotion from awakening inside him.

Shaking his head, he eliminated the system from his vision with a thought, this was something he had learned when he was walking towards this Forest.

Focusing on the front, there was the Chest held up by affiliated stones protruding from the ground.

It was black with shiny golden lines, it looked mysterious, but at the same time majestic and elegant.

Plus the stones that were holding it up, it look like a beautifully painted picture.

But under this mission, Nova felt nothing, he had seen this scene countless times when he played, and when it was real life now, it didn't seem to make much difference to him.

Walking on, he held the sword that had accompanied him in his brief but brutal fight.

Quickly, he came to the front of the Chest, thrusting the iron sword into the ground. Nova proceeded to reach out with both hands towards the black chest.

Grasping it in his hands, he carefully opened it, inside was what he had been searching and fighting for so hard, the object that was going to greatly improve the short-term future, at least.

Inside the Chest, two earrings were visible, two long moon-shaped earrings.

Their color was an intense, but soft, silver, with a chain before reaching the waning and waxing Moon they were dangling.

Grasping the two earrings in his hands, he instantly received a message from the system.

[Player gets Moon Earrings, they are added to Player's items].
