—if I try to go to the theatre now, chances are that I'll be kicked out—
The road to 'Willow Forest was crowded as a chicken farm. Walking further Iris saw 20 plus level 1 players ganging up on one forest slime: the easiest mob in any 2-3 areas.
—hmm, noobs. More people will just make the mob stronger—
Iris looked around for a secluded path to hunt but failed to find one, she kept walking further into the forest until she stopped seeing players. "Here should be good" Iris wasn't antisocial or anything, she just didn't like to talk randomly or anyone. Thanks to her hypersensitivity race attribute she heard the forest slime sliding towards her, aiming for her ankles. Iris turn around using her arms as balance she kicked the slime in the face, *sloppp* "EWWW" Iris' foot was stuck in the slime. Although it was gross it was still taking away HP from it...slowly.
-1...
-1..
Iris grabbed the nearest tree and smashed her foot against it,
-3
"Great, fifteen points to go". It was the slimes turn, it stretched a quarter of itself towards Iris..**slap**
-6
"OWW" Iris Stared at her own HP shocked, the slime had just taken over half of her HP. Iris reacted quickly to this and continued to pound her foot onto the slime:
-2...
-3..
-2....
...
*ding* "Congratulations!, Fire Stone for killing your first mob: 2x EXP and luck on drops."
...
*ding* "you have levelled up"
...
*ding* "you have levelled up"
"Nice! It's so nice to level up fast!"
The slime turned into a ray of light and disappeared, leaving a coin and a book. Iris picked both up in either hand.
*ding* "do you wish to identify both items?"
"Yes," Iris already had an idea of what they were,
Two screens appeared in front of her:
_________
'Dream Stone': Game currency
-dropped from forest slime
_________
_________
'Book of Pounding': Skill book
Skill: Pound an object with fists and
feet in multiple succession
-this skill was created by pounding
an opponent with their fists
_________
—Skills don't drop randomly? You have to create them!!? That's so cool—
*ding* "do you wish to learn 'pound'?"
—I don't have to have a class? Sure why not—
"Yes please" Iris watched the book as it was absorbed into her petite figure.
*ding* "You have learnt 'pound': you have received 24 EXP bonus"
*ding* "you have levelled up"
"Only 70% more EXP 'till I'm level 5" Iris swiped her hand to activate her system front and found two more buttons activated: Inventory and Skills.
Iris activated the inventory to find 16 slots available, she put the coin in the designated coin slot - not using any of the item slots. Then she went to the skill icon and pressed it, finding a description:
There are two ways you can collect skill books. The first being trial and error. To do this, while fighting a monster try out some different movements to restrict, or attack an opponent. This can also be recreated using a training dummy. As for magic users, you will obtain a basic magic dictionary that can be added to, merged with other books and upgraded, to create spells you must utilise the words you have collected through chanting. (More information will be provided with a spellbook). The second way to obtain a Skill book is by fighting monsters that have a chance at dropping a skill book or purchasing one from an NPC. However, these books will be class specific.
Underneath the description was a single button with a fist illustration. Iris clicked it and found her skill:
_________
'Pound' (basic melee)
Level: 1
Master level: 1%
Attack power: 3
-pound an object with your fists or feet to inflict damage
