Versatile: Alternate World 17 Chapter 17

"Who is this Bladeheart?! He did not only hog all a first kill but he also dominated the world ranking?" Black Hue Waters protested. He is the Guild Leader of Aqua Blood Alliance but since the guild is still not established, they are still focused on leveling. He is a top tier Samurai in my past world.

"For friggin sake, of course he will hog the glory. He defeated an area boss that we have not yet even encountered and he also did a first kill. We all know how lucrative the rewards are if you got a first kill," Panther Fang said, the vice captain of the guild and a Holy Knight.

"I want info of this player. Bladeheart seems to be an expert and has a hidden way to get stronger easily. If we get his secret, we can get to arrive into the capital without trouble and set our guild immediately," Black Hue Waters said.

"Understood, I will investigate on this matter and try to get a contact with him," Panther Fang nodded before going away.

Black Hue Waters looked at the big level 20 next to Bladeheart on the Rankings and his measly level 6 on his character panel.

"I will make sure to obtain those secret of yours. You can't hog all the glory that is meant for me!"

...

On the side of the road, path to the capital, rests the group of Harmless Sparrow. They once again tried to beat up the Gate Guardian but failed and almost got killed. Accompanied by the huge amount of Orcs sp.a.w.ning near the boss, it made them scratch their head in frustration on how did Bladeheart managed to pa.s.s through the Gate Guardian without trouble.

Harmless Sparrow was looking at the online forums when her friend, Flaming Cutie, an a.s.sa.s.sin approached her. She is someone she knows in the real world as she is a cla.s.smate of hers.

"Its too hard to get to the threshold of level 7. I can't even believe leveling like this can actually take a toll in my body. I feel like I am really doing a workout," Flaming Cutie said as she drank water from her inventory.

"Well, that's what the game unique. It will be too unrealistic if we don't feel any restraints. This is actually something I like," Harmless Sparrow said as she scans the online forum.

She saw a forum about the real ident.i.ty of Bladeheart that has claimed the top one ranking in the whole world as the highest leveled player and the first player to reach the capital. Flaming Cutie looked at Harmless Sparrow and took a peek on the four she is reading.

"I bet that the guy has exploited some sort of bug and made it. It is quite impossible for him to do a very fast leveling. We cannot even reach the threshold of level 7 beating up Orcs even if I stayed here for 6 hours!" Flaming Cutie protested.

"I don't know. If he did, then how come the system is still not taking action and he is actually still in the leaderboards and has already sealed his position to the top? The GMs might have seen everything so I guess he is just leveling the usual way!" Harmless Sparrow said.

"How mad does his leveling speed is? Also, what cla.s.s is he registered anyway? If it is a high damage dealer I might agree with it," Flaming Cutie said as she motions to look on the leaderboards.

Harmless Sparrow was also struck and forgot to look at the cla.s.s of Bladeheart. She opened the leaderboards and clicked the details of his cla.s.s. Only a single word appeared there: Versatile.

"Versatile? What cla.s.s is this? How come I didn't know this cla.s.s?" Flaming Cutie was confused.

"Of course you don't know. This cla.s.s is unique in this game. This is not those MMORPG games we played in the past. I have checked this one when I am still trying to look for a good cla.s.s. This one is a bit tricky," Harmless Sparrow explained.

"How come?" Flaming Cutie asked.

"This cla.s.s is a jack of all trades, however, they are also a master of none. The Versatile cla.s.s is the combination of all cla.s.ses that the game have. What makes it tricky is to the fact that the player needs to unequip and equip different weapons to suit their style. Its an expensive cla.s.s. Moreover, they also level slower due to the balancing out system, that leaves the players too overpowered. Many players who tried this out complained in the forums that this cla.s.s is worthless and not worth using so they shifted cla.s.ses," Harmless Sparrow continued.

"Then how come Bladeheart did it? Don't tell me he is rich?" Flaming Cutie speculated.

"That..." Harmless Sparrow also jot speechless. How did a slow leveling cla.s.s gets ahead of them in many levels?

....

While they are discussing those sh*ts, I am busy looking at my character panel. I have made a few adjustments and I have equipped a few armor now. I also added the AP to my attributes and I am satisfied with the result.

A few changes appeared alright and after equipping most of my armor, my attributes have risen too without me spending too much AP on it. The DEF attribute mainly. It is due to the pieces of equipment bearing a good raise in this Attribute. I might be a magic user but I have too high of a defense. If I disguised as a Magician Cla.s.s, will they try to beat me up, only to crisp them all to coals? I can't wait to do some mischievous things. Players are all greedy individuals, seeing a good thing to their fellow players, they will try to earn something similar. I hate that att.i.tude the most that is why I will be doing a solo run in this lifetime.

After everything that the quest needed to open the dungeon, I returned to the Headquarters and as usual, I saw Simona in the counter, busy on the NPCs that are having their own businesses. Seeing me approaching, she looked at me from head to toe.

"Except for your trashy hood, everything looks good on you!" Simona nodded.

Hearing it, a vein popped out of my forehead.

"Are you mocking me?" I grunted. It is a friendly talk though and no hostility is included.

"Hahaha, you should improve your helm soon, that beginner item just ruins your look," Simona grinned.

Of course, this Beginner Hood is destroying my look, most of my equipment shows some prestige, while the hood looks like rags.

"I have some sc.r.a.p Pearlite Helm here with me, though since it is sc.r.a.p, I have no choice but to leave it be before I find a good blacksmith," I sighed. I didn't hide it to her. If she is a player, I won't dare show this one, but since she is an NPC, I hope she can recommend me to a good blacksmith. There are blacksmiths around here but I doubt that they can repair this sc.r.a.p until later on the game.

"Oh? Pearlite Helm? That originated in Kamikaze Continent when monsters did not dominate that place. That's so long ago! However, since you are looking for a blacksmith, you have asked the right person! Return here before sunset and I will led you to a good blacksmith!" Simona seems enthusiastic.

"Oh, I see! Then thank you!" I nodded. NPCs in this games are like real humans, you can't tell of they are humans or NPCs at all. They seemed to have their own consciousness.

"So, are you here to deliver the Materials?" Simona asked.

"Yes," I said and pull out the sacks containing the materials separately from each other.

Simona nodded and snaps her fingers, summoning a few men on her back. From what I can tell, they are Vampire Butlers, a level 120 monster in the Dungeon, Alucard's Mansion. As expected of an NPC, to summon two Vampire Butlers means she is powerful. I did not see her summon them in the past so it was really a surprise for me to see them.

"Wait for a while, we will process the Pole of Weakening first," Simona said and followed the two Vampire Butlers upstairs. I guess they will perform Trans.m.u.tation or Combination to make it. Anyways, I am closer to open the Lesser Purgatory. I only needed to prepare a lot, as I will be raiding it solo...
