Omni-Mastery

After finally getting fully used to moving with little practice, mostly relying on the memory synchro, I decided to start by checking the house.

While I did have memories of the house's nature, it seemed like everything was hazy when it came to very recent memories, so it was better to take a look at my surroundings for a start.

'There it is!'

The first place I checked was the library room which was situated close to the sleeping room, I mainly wanted to make sure that the big book cabinet inside of it was intact as it was supposed to hold books containing basic fighting knowledge, which would naturally come in handy.

Aside from the other essential rooms that any house would have, there was also a small sized training ground at the back of the house, making this house a pretty good place to start from.

Thanks to game Ian's parents being both hunters and hunter trainers, I was given an advantageous start as the house had both training knowledge and a place to practice them in!

'Let's take a look outside as well…'

The next step was to leave the house and take a look at the 'Thunder Village', the beginning area that I spawned at, or rather sent to.

[ Warning! Village Arc starts now, protection time left 89d:22h:38m:11s ] 

As soon as I took a step out of the house, I immediately received another notif screen, a red one to be exact.

[ You have to choose one of the following two modes before proceeding… ]

[ 1. Basic Growth Mode (Easy) 

• x2 EP buff (EXP equivalent)

• Hunting targets will receive a weakening Debuff  ]

[ 2. Hidden Training Mode (hard)  

• Level Limitation (lv.0) 

• Village Quest Log unlocking

• Bonus reward (decided according to User's performance during the Arc) ] 

Looking at the two screens before me, I decided to choose the second one after taking a few minutes to consider, after all, while choosing the first mode seemed to bring more start-up benefits, it felt like a waste of the 'protection time' that was mentioned in the red notif.

While it didn't seem believable that I would be completely out of danger during that period, it seemed to at least mean that the danger would be lessened, and considering the high difficulty rate of this game, making use of this period to build up actual fighting experience seemed like a far safer bet.

The main reason behind my choice was the fact that most earlier beta testers had died pretty early, I could hypothesis that this might have happened due to them relying on the debuff to fight weak monsters during the 'protection time' only to end up losing their lives as soon as it ended, as their inexperience made them easy targets and lead them to their own death.

The level limiter itself didn't even seem like a bad thing for me who still had an under-developed body which required doing basic training before even considering anything else, while the quest log was naturally bound to be of help, even if it was just for the sake of gathering funda, as for the bonus reward, it naturally shouldn't be something bad after all.

[ You have chosen the 'Hidden Training Mode', the 'Village Quest Log' is unlocked! ]

After clicking the second screen to confirm my choice, all the notif screens before my eyes disappeared as they were replaced with my normal status screen, except that it now had another tab.

[ Quest Log:

1. Village Quests (↓) ]

Taking a quick look at it was all I needed to understand that it wasn't something which I could immediately use in my current state, it once again confirmed that I had to focus on training before doing anything as most quests that had satisfying rewards had somewhat high requirements.

As such, I took the 21 pieces of silver that I found in the house and headed towards the closest grocery shop to stock up on food to prepare for my training plan. After all, proper nutrition was indispensable for any training to bear fruit, making this the natural course of action to go with, especially if I wanted to use the quest log to my benefit as soon as possible...
