<You have leveled up.>
Luther was bored. He had to walk around and kill 25 goblins to level up. Each goblin was only 10XP. He only got a fang each.
If he gets to Level five he can choose a mage class. He keeps wandering in the surrounding grasslands, firing shots an anything that moves.
Fangs and more fangs. He has 43. Aside from drops, goblins also shed teeth like a snake sheds skin.
< Goblin fang.
Consumable.
Small fang with a bit of poison in it.>
Wait a second. He had a thought that made him smile and ran all the way to the guild house. He found a bowl and dumped all of his fangs in it. He then crushed it into a powder. This took awhile as they were pretty tough. He chose to fill the bowl with water and boil it.
After ten minutes, a few new notices appeared.
<Congratulations! You learned Minor Crafting>
< ITEM: Small Poison made.>
<Small Poison.
Rank -D
Consumable.
Deals 2 DMG every ten seconds for two minutes.>
Would his goblin kill count to up if he poisoned the water they a drink from? Well, probably not. He sat in front of the boiling potion and came up with an idea.
He pulled 5 Mana into his left hand and 5 Qi into his right. He then poured it into the anti-potion he made. The green potion glowed as it changed from green to blue. He mixed it for good measure.
<Small Poison X
Goblin Poison maximized with magical properties.
Can't be dispelled without lv 3 cure or higher.
Deals 40 DMG every ten seconds.>
"What the hell?" He backed away from it. Potions don't tell friend from foe. He would die in ten minutes with his 980 HP. He couldn't find the spell book for Cure. There weren't any spell books at all, actually.
He carefully poured the poison into 10 bottles and went to the lake. The lake is equal distance from the goblin camps.
"This will either work really well, or blow up in my face. I need to learn Cure. Which means I need to leave." It's the weekend and Luther doesn't have any friends. He talks to himself in the village.
He poured 5 of his poison bottles into the lake and went back to the guild. He froze in his tracks for a second. It was made from goblin poison. Wouldn't they be immune to their own poison? He shrugged and went on his way.
No matter what he does, the guild is a little disappointing. There were no spell books. The books on swordfighting were vague and barely understandable. He managed to clean up the place. He didn't like to read in messy spaces.
After reinforcing the protective layer of wood, Luther logged out.
He woke up and climbed out of the capsule to see his mother teared up sitting on his bed. She hasn't changed out of her nurse scrubs.
"You okay mom?" He asked as she wipes away her lingering tears. "Yeah sweetie, I'm just happy you are finally having some fun. I never thought you would ever take a break. What changed your mind?"
"I felt like I was getting left behind, you know? Everyone at school kept on talking as if it was the only thing that mattered. I wanted to give it a try and I am not disappointed." He answered half truthfully. He did feel a little more alone than usual. She didn't need to know about the college thing.
"I haven't made dinner yet, how about some pizza?" She have him a quick hug and walked away. They talked and ate together. It was nice just talking and being in each other's company. His mother was a nurse. She was on call 20 hours a day. His dad works the night shift as a grocery store manager. It is always funny listening to the stories of all the entitled people.
He logged back in after making sure his mother went to sleep.

He couldn't believe what he was seeing. The poison worked. 2400 goblins drank poison that only be fixed with a Lv 3 Cure spell. He got an Ancient chest. The only other Ancient chest was found after beating the Dragon Father of the west. Number 1 rank Arthur has that armor set.
Unique spell books mean that only one player can use said spell. It will be locked for everyone else until the character is deleted.
"What the ever loving fuck?!" Luther shouted as he looked at his status.

He jumped from 3 to 18 and he didn't have a class yet. His energy more than doubled. He closed is eyes and checked his void. He didn't know what to call it. He was surprised to see that the energy was stable. It actually got more stable as the two energy wells grew.
He checked his inventory and was once again shocked.
<Inventory:
Goblin Fang x 999
Goblin Fang x 999

He needed to find a real guild. He could sell a whole bunch of this and finally get a class. He packed up his stuff and left a sign at the lake.
*This lake is poisoned! Pease cast a Lv 3 Cure spell on it.
Thankfully, the next town isn't that far away according to the map. It actually took him about a half hour to get to the guild. He checked something he missed before.
<Title: Goblin Genocide
Requirement: single handedly erase an entire goblin camp 4/1
Reward: Number of Goblin camps erased multiplies DMG given to goblins.>
Cool. Next time he attacked a goblin the DMG will be multiplied by 4. I am definitely going to choose a magic class, he thought as he entered through the guild's door.
A/N : I know that in chapter 1 it says that his dad works in construction. The fact is that Luther's dad has two jobs, construction during the day and market at night. I just wanted to clear that up before I get bashed for inconsistency.
