NovelHook/Overlord: Ancient one/Chapter 5

Overlord: Ancient one Chapter 5

It's already been four months since Arthur started playing YGGDRASIL. During those days of continuously grinding Exp, so many things have happened already. Last month, the game YGGDRASIL was finally released to the public officially, and just like what He thought, it made an uproar. In just two weeks after it was released the popularity increased so much that the server of YGGDRASIL became so packed. So many new Players are being spawned in different areas in each realm. He also encountered his fellow Heteromorphic race, but the population of the Heteromorphic race is thin as the majority of the people like to play either Humanoid or in Demi-human form. since the discrimination against the Heteromorphic hasn't started, they are free to do whatever they want. During this time He also keeps hunting on the edge part and slowly pushing his way toward the center of HELHEIM. He doesn't want to take risks since there's no reason for him to take things fast. he also levels up to 40, which is low if compared to any other game, but in YGGDRASIL it is a high level because each time you level up the experience which needed to level up will be doubled, that is also the reason losing a level is no go in this game. After the official release of YGGDRASIL, many new players would come to Beta players for advice, and some also come to him for tips, He doesn't help all the ones that he meets but sometimes, he agrees to some of them. Especially if they have a cute voice and sound like a girl. As YGGDRASIL was a game of exploration and so many things were mysteries left unknown for players to discover on their own or in groups. It was a game where all you were told was the controls before being thrown into the deep end. In other words, the unique thing about YGGDRASIL was the incredible amount of freedom given to the players compared to any other DMMO-RPGs out there. That is also the reason its popularity increased so much that the majority of the Japanese people have entered the game or at least heard of the name YGGDRASIL. Because the game was tough for newbies and there is no external help from the game system, the players have a hard time leveling up or even defeating a monster, so the complaints about its ridiculous hardness begins to increase, as such the company introduced the cash Shop items, which are the items that can be bought by spending real-life money and as soon as cash shop items were introduced Arthur went on a shopping spree, he buys everything that catches his attention, he also doesn't care about the money as the game popularity increased his income also started to rise as he owns 30% the company share. Now he was in a dead forest on HELHEIM to hunt Death Dryad for his job advance After he maxed his level in both his Racial class which is {Doppelganger} and {Greater Doppelganger}, which is a higher form of Doppelganger and has four fingers instead of three, he began to invest his level on his job class which is {Warrior}, but after he maxed it there was a lot of class for him to advance but among them, there was a particular class that stands out, which is {Weapon Master} and {Martial Art Master}, A class in which Player can equip any weapon without penalty and a class which uses fist and kicks for fighting. I am very interested in equipping both classes. But For now, I have decided to equip {Weapon Master} class, which removes restrictions on weapons, As sweet as it sounds, it is not easy to equip this class, there is a clear condition to acquire this class that's why he was in this forest. This is also the reason why he didn't go for both classes at the same time because the clear condition {Weapon Master} alone was to fight thirty Death Dryad with thirty different weapons. I am now fighting a Death Dryad for my class's advance, normally for other this was not going to problem, but to me, this was a big problem as Dryad was species we'll know for their nature control and magic use, For me who is a Doppelganger my magic resistance is incredibly low and due to the condition imposed to Class advance I can't even use the shapeshifting ability to compensate my weaknesses, I was only winning because cash shop items. ᴛhis chapter is ᴜpdated by 𝘯𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭•𝘧𝘪𝘳𝘦•𝘯𝘦𝘵 Ending my first battle with Death Dryad by serving her head with my sword, then I fall back to the safe zone to recover my health due to the condition I can't even die so playing safe and slow will be my best chance for winning. After recovering my health, I searched for another Dryad while equipping my spear, I only needed a few moments before I noticed my next target, due to my previous mistake about how I faced the Death Dryad head-on, now I move sneakily to launch a surprise attack but it failed miserably as soon as I at a close range the Dryad immediately went on a battle stance and cast a {Lesser Strength} on me. If I want to I can use the help of Friday to find its weakness or even go on Auto-mode where she would do fighting for me, but I don't want to, I want to fully enjoy the wonders of this groundbreaking game and its just beginning so who can compliant to me for enjoying this beauty which is lost in the real world, that the reason why I limit my use on Friday, but I still use her to know the path to taken to become strong in the future as I don't want to get killed for experience by Humanoid players when the racial discrimination starts. After ending his match against Death Dryad he again retreats to the safe zone for recovering his health. he continues this strategy to complete his job class advancement.
