Chapter 6: The Luckiest Man, Part Three

”The Black Clawed Panther didn't change into a deva as fast as I have, so he probably didn't participate in the hidden event.”

From my knowledge, it took the Panther more than a day to become a deva.

”But he couldn't become the strongest? Even with all those extra points?”

Even without the hidden event, being the first deva meant he had a total of 1000 points. That gave him a 100 level head start!

He even started off with not 10 skill points, but 20 from the Title! He had 20 skill points at level 0 while everyone else needed to get to level 500 for that many!

Well, I had no reason to scorn or scold him. He hd been strong enough in his own right.

His specs were still second to none. He had still managed to garner respect anywhere he went.

He was an assassin that could slay his targets in an instant and specialized in a small variety of poisons, rather than dabbling in many. He was a nightmare for archers and mages who had low vitality. But...

”This would have been enough for him to reach the top… does that mean the road to the top is that much of a battle?”

In my past life, there was a sect that I and my fellow low-tier people could only look up at with disdain, called themselves the Heavenly Sect.

Those belonging to the Heavenly Sect received the utmost hospitality everywhere they went and they accepted it as if it were the natural order. Of course, I never had the chance to meet one.

We existed in worlds apart.

I gathered my wandering thoughts once more.

”Alright. Let's start here. I'm off to a great start! I just need to keep this up!”

Store 72 Visit: Part One

After checking and confirming this and that, I realized I was still naked and put on the clothes that had fallen on the ground. I then picked up my bag that was left to the side and took out my notes.

”The first part has ended perfectly. It can't get better than this.”

I circled the part with the first deva with satisfaction and shifted my attention to the part below.

”So it looks like the next part are the dungeons? Monsters won't begin to appear until there's a certain number of devas, anyway. Back then, it took eight months before monsters began to appear.”

If it went the way my notes indicated, it would be a while before monsters would appear.

I would have to wait eight more months before I could start to level up.

Was this a brief chance to prepare? The world around me had begun its alteration.

The Genenian spoken and written language was all the evidence needed to prove the voice in the sky right.

I didn't need my token or a Don Gate anymore.

”There's a bonus for being the first to find a dungeon, right? Even though I've never found one first myself...”

Being the first to find a dungeon was like winning the lotto; you received bonus stat points if you were the first!

Obtaining stat points in other ways rather than leveling was a surefire way of increasing the distance between you and others. It was the reason that tens and hundreds of thousands of devas wandered around looking for dungeons.

There was no assurance of when or if one could find a dungeon, but the sweet fruit of temptation of being the first to find one was that much greater.

Sure you could try to catch up to others by grinding levels on monsters, but you could never beat the advantage of bonus stat points!

And so, many people set out to find dungeons. As a result, it became known that dungeons had a high chance of appearing in dangerous places, like towering mountains or scorching deserts.

There were two large classifications of monsters: field monsters and dungeon monsters.

The most evident difference between these two types was that field monsters would also fight amongst themselves, and had their own territory.

The stronger the monster, the larger its territory, and sometimes elite and boss types would also spawn.

The biggest problem with field monsters is that when they hunted other monsters or killed humans and devas, they themselves would increase in level. It was because of this that orcs found in fields would be stronger than orcs found in dungeons.

Every so often, some poor fellow would die from carelessly trying to fight one of these levelled-up monsters outside.

Dungeon monsters... were different.
