"As expect from Efferus, he truly delivers."

"The bracelet is amazing; this item is valuable even at high level. I'm so glad I managed to save him back then."

"And then there's the crimson leather armor… I was expecting more. Shame that there wasn't a skill attached to it…wait! What if I use the demon core on it."

[Would you like to use the 'Crimson Wolf demon core' on 'Crimson Leather Armor'?]

"I knew it! What better item to use the wolf demon core other than an item crafted with the wolf's own hide."

"Yes!"

[You have successfully augmented an enchantment into 'Crimson Leather Armor'.]

Stats:

*+150 HP

*+100 Defence

*+8% movement speed

*+ 10% physical damage

*Grants the passive skill, 'Blood Thirst'

-------------------------------------------

Blood Thirst: When Maximum Health pool reaches 20% or lower; increase movement speed and attack speed by 20% and increase all healing received by 10%. (The skill is deactivated the moment your maximum health is higher than 20 %.)

----------------------------------------

"I see, so when using a demonic core, there's a chance to gain one its skills."

"The synergy between Blood Thirst and Zealous bracelet is quite fascinating. I'm able to heal 30% of my health pool from Zealous, plus a 10% increase in the healing received from Blood Thirst. Meaning that if my maximum health is 1,600 I could instantly heal 480 health from the bracelet in addition to the 10% from 'blood thirst' which would provide me a 528 instant recovery in my health pool. So much synergy and freedom in this game, it make me wonder what crazy things can be done in the later stages."

"My only way of survival, was the lesser health potions. Hopefully, their usage would not be necessary anymore. Though, I still need to act carefully. Having limited usage on the bracelet should be more then enough reason to be wary on where and how to use it."

Mylo slowly got up from his seated position and slapped his hand around his pants to remove the dust attached to him. He slowly walked toward the dummy and takes out the wooden sword next to it. The use of real sword wasn't allowed since it could easily damage the equipment.

"Ha!"

*Bump*

"Ha!"

*Bump*

Mylo started swinging his sword again and again, pretty much bringing the attention of players in the area towards him. Laughter and mockery could be heard all around.

"Look at that guy."

"Is he seriously doing that stupid quest?"

"Hahaha just let him, one less competitor to worry about."

"What a noob, he must be one of those 'just playing for fun' players."

"I know right! Majority of players are here for the fame and fortune. We all know that the lowest of individual in terms of social status in the real world can easily become the richest by doing in game."

"Man, forget him. His going to give up after an hour. Let's go level up."

"Yeah I need to hunt 20 valsea boars to complete my class quest. Can't wait to get that class skill."

"…"

Mylo could hear the laughter and the mockery, but it didn't bother him. That's because they didn't know that he would receive an additional reward compared to them.

After each swing, Mylo could feel his strength and stamina leaving him. An hour passed, then two, then three. He didn't know how long he has been swinging his sword, he was extremely exhausted. He wanted to give up. But his greed and curiosity wouldn't allow him.

Ten thousand, twenty thousand,… . He swung and swung without stopping. The players and npc's around him departed from his vision, everything became pitch black. What remained was his sword, the dummy and himself. Without realizing it, Mylo was in complete trance.

"Ha!"

*Bump*

"Ha!"

*Bump*

"Ha…."

"…."

[Congratulations, you have completed the quest 'Basic attack proficiency'.]

"Ha!"

*Bump*

"Ha!"

*Bump*

Mylo was in a extreme concentration and didn't pay attention to anything, even the quest completion message. He just kept swinging and swinging over and over again.

In the distance, two individuals could be seen inside the adventures building watching from the outside window.

"Mr.Efferus, shouldn't you stop him. He has already completed your task."

"…No Lili, he might gain more than basic proficiency from this."

"What do you mean?"

"Extreme concentration."

"Extreme concentration? How? I heard that those who manage to reach extreme concentration are masters of their respective occupations. "

"Indeed. They are individual who have trained on a specific action for many years, allowing them to grasp an unreachable concentration level."

"Then how is he able to do so?"

"… His a genius."

"…"

"His about to fall. Let's bring him something to drink."

"But his still swing- Ah! He fell!"

***

Mylo was currently on the floor, he couldn't move a single muscle. The only thing he could do was look at the unexpected message before him.
