Ripped Advance (Death)

:]==

Below Ripped Advance were my other Miscellaneous Skills, like the Sand Warriors Summon and Create Weakness, but I didn’t really care about those because they didn’t have levels. I cared more about my passive and active Skills. As I looked through my Skills, I actually felt slightly disappointed.

“Why do I have so many max level 1 Skills?” Rewards that maxed out Skill levels like this were extremely rare. Actually, they didn’t exist at all. I couldn’t help but feel more disappointed at that. I had even obtained three more Skill levels after leveling up from the fight against Claudia. I had so many chances to learn another Skill during my break.

I heaved a deep sigh to calm myself down. As disappointed as I was, a good amount of my Skills definitely benefited from the Achievement reward. Warrior’s Brave Spirit had finally reached level 3. “I also just learned Scorching Rage and Titan Stomp, but they’re both max level now, too…”

Spear Mastery and Increase CRIT Rate had both reached level 2 not too long ago, but Fissure, that I had learned at the same time as those two passive Skills, had still been at level 1. As I knew, passive Skills required fewer EXP than active skills, so I honestly didn’t expect to see Fissure or even the other two AoE Skills level up any time soon. Even Judge’s Gavel, the one Skill I tried so hard to level up, was finally at its max level.

A shiver ran down my spine. If all of my Skills were at max level like this before I fought Claudia, the outcome definitely would have been different. “I definitely could have killed thousands more.” I licked my lips as I wondered about how many more golden rings I could have gotten.

“But as great as my passive and active skills are now, my Miscellaneous Skills really take the cake, don’t’ they?” Each Miscellaneous Skill was about as good, if not better, than my level 3 Skills, especially Ripped Advance and Create Critical Weakness. I stared at my Skills Menu with a huge grin on my face. I would have kept staring if it weren’t for the chain of messages that started to come up.

All of my Stats were increased by 30,000 points. My base STR was raised all the way to 110,000, while my AGI and VIT were raised all the way to 80,000. Then they received an additional 2000 points every 10,000 points, like always.

And then there was the Grand Achievement, as well.

==[You have obtained a Grand Achievement.]

You have reached 60,000 points in two Stats (STR, AGI) before anyone else.

I received the Grand Achievement messages a total of six times; twice for 60k, twice for 70k and twice for 80k.

“This is so not right.” I thought the same when I wiped out half the enemy soldiers guarding Section 79, and when I had cleared Survival at the Ogre Dungeon. Even I thought that I was way too overpowered, and was way too lucky with these rewards. Every single reward or bonus I’d received just made things way too unfair for my enemies.

I couldn’t help, but smile. I still had two more Stats that were raised by 30,000 points.

==[You will be awarded a bonus for surpassing 20,000 points in WIL before anyone else.]==

==[You will be awarded a bonus for surpassing 30,000 points in WIL before anyone else.]==

==[You will be awarded a bonus for surpassing 30,000 points in INT before anyone else.

INT will be increased by 2,000 points.

This bonus is awarded to the first person to accomplish this achievement.]==

I only got bonuses for getting my base WIL past 20k and 30k and my INT past 30k. That meant that there was someone out there with 10k in WIL and with 20k in INT. Whoever that was, they’d probably be horrified when they didn’t receive their bonus for getting their INT to 30k. Either way, I gained another 4,000 points in WIL, another 2,000 in INT and I waited for the next messages to come.

“Huh?” I was expecting to get the Grand Achievements since I had surpassed 30k points in both WIL and INT. I thought I would get more Stat points now that all five of my Stats had passed 30k but after about five minutes, nothing happened.

“What’s going on? Does the Grand Achievement only work up to three Stats or something?” I wanted to know, so I asked into the air in front of me, but I was answered with a deafening silence.

I didn’t mind too much, since I wasn’t going to invest any more points into WIL and INT, but I was still disappointed. I thought I was going to get a few thousand more Stat points from the Achievement. But the more I thought about it, the more it seemed to make sense. “Hmm… it does give a lot of bonus Stat points. Maybe it stops at three Stat points for balance reasons?”

I let my disappointment go. I wasn’t going to get an answer no matter how many times I thought about it. Besides, I had received too much to be disappointed about anything. “Open Stats Menu.”

“…This is crazy,” was all I could say as I stared at my Stats Menu. There just wasn’t any other way I could think of to describe it. Then my eyes drifted down to the 9,000 Stat points I had just received from all the recent Grand Achievements.

“Alright. Let’s go all the way!” My base STR was actually at 118,000, while my base VIT and AGI were both at 88,000. So basically, those three Stats needed 2,000 more Stat points to reach the next milestone. And that’s what I did. I raised all three Stats by another 2,000 points each, leaving me with a total of 6,000 unassigned Stat points, thanks to the three Grand Achievements that popped up afterwards.

“I’ll save them for now!” I could buy another 2,000 Stat points, get unassigned Stat points back up to 8,000, and get another one of my Stats past another milestone. I had Stat points for days.

“Let’s get going.” I was still curious what Earth was like without devas, deities, and monsters.

As I walked through the dungeon, I thought to myself. I had never really owned anything during my life on Earth. I rented the rooftop room I used to live in. But the message told me that I now owned all of Earth. I wasn’t sure if it was because of that message or because I was now Earth’s new owner, I felt a strange feeling wash over me every time I took a step forward. I never felt this feeling before but I liked it. I smiled to myself as I quickened my pace.

Section 104 of the Judge’s Continent…

Another alliance of four of Earth’s strongest guilds had formed a raiding army and sent it to attack Croot. Those guilds included Cheng Long of China, Chambord of France, Ponferrada of Spain, and even the Spencer Guild of America. They were inspired by the recent efforts of the Empire, but were also getting impatient. They wanted to join the Empire even if it cost them an arm and a leg, but they knew that they were already too late. They knew that they would never amount to anything compared to the current nine guilds that made up the Empire.

But these guilds were led by proud guild masters who couldn’t accept that they were any less than the Empire. They truly wanted to knock the Empire down a peg and prove to the rest of Earth’s people that it didn’t have to rely only on the Empire.

“We’re off to a good start.”

“I know what you mean. If it was this easy, I don’t know why we didn’t do this earlier…” John William, the guild master of the Spencer Guild, replied confidently to Wai Chung.

“I think this is more like fishing in troubled waters. It’s easy because of Lee Jiwon,” Jesús, the guild master of the Ponferrada Guild, added quietly.

An awkward silence was shared between the guild masters. Even Joel, the guild master of Chambord, didn’t know what to say.

“My apologies. It seems I’ve soured the atmosphere.”

“Well, you’re not wrong. We should all acknowledge what’s true. But troubled waters or not, it is also true that we were able to destroy Section 103.”

“He’s right. We made our move while others were too busy being careful around the Empire. I know it’s not much, but at least we’re doing something.”

“You’re right. Maybe I was just thinking too much into it. It’s just, after all the Empire and Lee Jiwon have done…”

“What they do is their business, and what we do is our business, is it not?”

“I agree. We don’t need to compare ourselves to them. We just need to do what we think we need to do.”

“Let’s move on. Section 104 is waiting for us.”

“Agreed. Let’s continue on.”

And so, this new Earth alliance army quickly headed for Section 104, where they encountered an enemy army a third their size.
