Chapter 3 (1/2)

When Randidly awoke, it was to some very weird notifications.As he opened his eyes, he noticed that the lights above flickered on, as if they had immediately shut off when he fell asleep. Shaking his head, he inspected the notifications.

Overnight, he had apparently reached Level 3 in farming. Sitting up, Randidly was stunned to find several sprouts coming up out of the spot that he had thrown the seeds from the berries. Excited, he got up and went over to inspect them. Although they didn’t seem like much, if they grew…

But then Randidly shook his head. Although it might be safe in here, he didn’t plan on remaining here forever. In fact, even just staying in the room and grinding would become a chore after a while. Still, farming would be incredibly useful for decreasing the danger in the short term, allowing him to gather sufficient strength before venturing out.

“I wonder how Ace and Sydney are doing…” Randidly muttered, his eyes going unfocused. But then he snapped back to the moment, opening his Path screen with an excited expression, putting the final two points into the Newbie Path.

Congratulations! You have earned 1 stat point(s).

Congratulations! You have earned 2 stat point(s).

Congratulations! You have completed the Newbie Path! +1 to all stats, +1 stat point per level, +4 Health per level, +2 Mana and +2 stamina per level. You have learned the active skills Mana Bolt Lvl 1 and Heavy Blow Lvl 1!

Continue using paths to explore this world! Remember, there will always be a path open to you.

Randidly laughed out loud. It seemed like completing a path certainly earned a lot of rewards. Not only was the final point he inserted worth 2 stat points instead of 1, but completing the path also had a big reward!

Then Randidly frowned. Although a lot of it was tied to level gains. And his level….was still N/A.

Did he miss something…?

Randidly did a once through on his menus, but there was nothing that he missed. Grimacing, Randidly considered the option that he had hypothesized about, but didn’t want to give voice to. If this is like a game, then there is likely a newbie area. But since he was underground when the system initialized, he just spawned right into a dungeon…? And in the newbie area…

Randidly’s eyes went to the spot where there was a series of lines instead of class.

In the newbie area, you earn a class, which allows you to level up...And without a class…

But then Randidly shook his head. No need to worry about that right now. He was improving slowly, and that is enough. He also had 3 stat points he could distribute. And now he had two skills that he needed to figure out how to use.

After eating the other half of yesterday’s harvest of berries, Randidly decided to put 1 point into End, 1 point into Agi, and deciding to take a gamble, another point into Per. Increased perception would hopefully allow him to spot approaching enemies like the frog earlier. If it had wanted to attack him at that time…

Randidly shivered.

After distributing his points, Randidly looked at his status.
