Leveling Up

Chapter 2

Title: Leveling Up

...

As the logo disappeared, her vision once again darkened until she found herself inside a village. There were lots of people all over the place. Some shouting trying to sell their goods, while others were laughing and joking together.

If not for the name displayed above the players, you wouldn't be able to tell difference between them and NPCS.

Azami looked at the path leading out the village and followed it. "Okay, time to get going."

There were many different routes to take but Azami just choose a random one to follow. She wasn't sure where the path would take her, but her anwser was soon found.

There was an open field with a rabbit type monster with a horn on its head hopping around.

*ding!*

[New Quest! Defeat 15 Horned Rabbits.

Rewards: Elven Armor, +20 Stat Points]

"Well I shouldn't waste any time." Azami said as she cracked her knuckles.

Unbound Reality was a scarily perceptive game. If a mage was to accurately vision their spells they wouldn't even need an enchantment for it to be used.

Of course, this was only for those who had also had a scarily perceptive and imaginative mind. If you can't accurately imagine your spells then this won't work.

'Something that could kill them fast and easy..got it!'

Azami being the genius she is, easily formed a sharp ice spike formed in her hand.

She aimed at one of the rabbits and threw it. The spike pierced threw the head the rabbit instantly killing it.

*ding!*

[You have killed LV. 1 Horned Rabbit!]

Azami glanced at the notification and continued with her quest.

Ice spikes were being created and thrown at an incredible rate. If any saw this they would've wondered if Azami really was a new player.

*ding!*

*ding!*

"Just a few more left.." Even as she said this her mana was depleting faster than she thought.

Azami realized this and clicked her tongue. "I won't let myself lose to these little rabbits."

Her attacks got fiercer, piercing straight through one rabbit to the next. Notifications kept ringing in her ear but Azami didn't stop.

*ding!* *ding!* *ding!*

[You have killed LV. 4 Horned Rabbit!]

[You have killed LV. 5 Horned Rabbit!]

[You have killed...

-

Finally. She had killed the last of them.

Azami looked at her mess and chuckled. "I went a little overboard huh.."

She did in fact go overboard. The field which had been filled with monsters was now an empty land, only left with the splattered parts of the horned rabbits.

*ding!* ding!*

[Level Up! You have reached Level 10]

[You have completed Beginners Quest. Rewards have been distributed. Please check inventory and player status.]

Azami first opened her inventory and equipped her new armor.

"..." It was not at all what she expected.

Instead of the usual metal plate, she had a dark grey sleeveless turtleneck that exposed her shoulders. On her arms were sleeves that went down towards her fingers, and hooks around the wrist that weren't connected to the turtleneck. The bottom half were brown shorts and dark grey boots. Although it seemed pretty basic the stats on it weren't bad.

[Elven Armor - Special Evolution

+10 STR

+10 DEF

+10 INT

+10 AGI

+10% Null Damage

- Can only be worn by Player Azi]

"'Special Evolution?' I heard getting these are pretty rare. It would make sense for my class though. But the null damage thing..i've never heard of that." Azami said to herself.

"I'm sure i'll figure it out soon. Now for my stats.." She opened the character screen.

"Mm, this is pretty good. It would make sense considering the stat increase. Thats quite a lot of stat points though, could be a mistake but whatever. I'll start to allocate them."

Azami leaned on a tree and began to allocate her points.

————————

"I should be decently strong now. Since this game has no level cap I can become as powerful as I want."

Azami was already making plans on becoming a top player in this game. Unbound Reality had only come out a few months ago, but the amount of players that had joined in that time wasn't small. It would be hard for her to rise in the ranks.

"I can't let killing be my only method of leveling up though. It's definitely a good way for learning how to fight but I need something else. I'll try to figure something out on my way back." Azami dusted herself off and started walking back towards the village.

Since she was taking a different path on the way back there were more players roaming around. Azami was much too zoned out to even notice the looks people were giving her.

The armor that would have looked like nothing on anybody else, somehow when worn by Azami only made her beauty pop out even more.

Some were looks of jealousy while others had looked as if they had just fallen in love. There were a few perverted looks but the glares from others quickly resolved that.

'I feel like a hole is burning through me..could be my imagination. I'd better speed up though.'

Azami increased her walking speed, quickly going towards the village.
