Back to Murkwood Passage
"Miss Aisleen, can you give me some time to think about this? I still do not know if I should even participate in the upcoming war."
Jay said to Aisleen since he really has no idea which side to choose in the war to come.
Aisleen then tossed Jay a token and told him "Don't worry. No rush. The moment you come to a decision, just contact me using that token."
[Jay received Aisleen's Token]
"Hmmm... It looks like I will still accept notifications." Jay thought to himself.
He then said some farewells to Aisleen then left the shop and went back to the Drunken Rooster Inn.

"Hi Nuggets. Sorry for leaving you all alone here." Jay said to Nuggets the moment he entered his room.
Nuggets then pecked him and crossed her chicken arms, or wings, to be precise.
"Hmph!"
When Jay saw how Nuggets reacted, he did not know if he should comfort her or anything.
Jay decided not to worry about it so he entered the Mind Room and checked the stats of the newly improved Leah's Dagger and the Chicken Armor Set.

---------------------------------
When Jay saw that the damage rating increased on Leah's Dagger improved and had a new passive skill, he did not really care that much. But when he saw how much the Chicken Armor set improved, he was very, very shocked and became very excited.
"Holy s***! How did an April Fools armor set become this great?! Who cares? Time to use it then..."
He then equipped the Chicken Armor set and became a human sized chicken again.
When Nuggets saw Jay's appearance, she jumped around the room to show how happy she is, and when Jay saw how Nugget's react, he did not know if he should be happy or not.
After all that, Jay spoke up "Nuggets, be sure to sleep well today since we are going back to Murkwood Passage tomorrow."
Nuggets then stopped jumping around and saluted Jay using her golden wings.
After that, they both went to sleep.
The next morning...
"Rise and shine Nuggets! It's time for some 'undead cleansing!'" Jay excitedly said as he picked up Nuggets and used the fast travel function of the map.
But for some reason, Nuggets got angry and wanted to sleep more. Sadly, Jay already used the fast travel function.
Bawk! Bawk! Bawk!

Murkwood Passage
"Nuggets, here we are! Now let's go and hunt some undead monsters." Jay excitedly said since this was the first step in his preparations for the upcoming war.
So he and Nuggets tried looking around for some prey. After a few minutes, Jay spotted a small group of zombies.
--------------------------
[Zombie Brute - Undead/Common]
Health: 15,000/15,000
Monster Description: Reanimated corpse that refused to obey the will of whoever reanimated him. He is now wandering around looking for brains to eat.
---------------------------
"1, 2...23. 23 Zombie Brutes huh? Nuggets, prepare for battle." Jay then took out Leah's Dagger and rushed towards the group of zombies.
Jay just started slashing randomly at the zombies since they really do not have any vital points and had only one weakness. They were terribly slow, may it be their movement speed or attack speed. While Jay was doing such, Nuggets used Spark every one in a while and kept on running around to make sure none of the zombies get her.
Jay and Nuggets took ten minutes to take care of all the zombies since Jay managed to deal 600-700 damage for every slash while Nuggets caused around 1000 damage.
"Whew! Just randomly slashing is tiresome. I wonder if..." Jay then closed his eyes and focused for a bit. As for Nuggets, when she saw that Jay was thinking about something, she got bored and went to sleep for the time being.
He just stood still like that for around thirty minutes...
Then thirty minutes later, Jay suddenly disappeared and reappeared. Then after another three seconds, the dagger Jay was holding suddenly vanished and reappeared.
"Hahaha!!! It worked."
[Jay tried to learn {Active Skill: Shadow's Embrace
- You can use the shadows to hide your presence.}]
[Jay managed to perform 75% success of the skill]
[Jay learned {Active Skill: Shadow's Embrace}]
[Jay tried to learn {Active Skill: Flicker Blade
- Instantly slash or thrust three times with equipped weapon}]
[Jay managed to perform 88% success of the skill]
[Jay learned {Active Skill: Flicker Blade}]
"Damn. I thought I had at least 90% success rate. Well, screw it! At least I know some new skills."
Jay then woke up Nuggets who was peacefully sleeping and they started looking for more undead monsters to kill.
