Chapter 45- First place winner?

"Ah~, my back hurts."

Being inside the game for longer than he would usually stay lead his body into a semi poor shape. Even though he had filled the nutrition pod to the brim, the lack of movement and unproper sleep was still of great importance. And so, in order to fix the matter regarding his current feeble constitution and putting his worried thoughts in order, he started his day with an appropriate meal.

After properly eating and showering, Mylo sat down on his chair right next to his desktop in order to update himself on what's currently being discussed within the world of second chronicles. Being inside the game for a while he was clueless in terms of popular topics. What better place to get information regarding Second Chronicles other than the official forums of the game.

"Oh, this seems intriguing."

The most popular topic in the forums was titled; [Most likely to win first place in the upcoming tournament!]. Mylo had in fact wanted to acquire more information regarding the public's favorites in regard to the tournament. He knew that the first player to have reached their respective classes where most probable in their choices.

"It wouldn't hurt reading this post; I might learn something or two." he said as he hovered his mouse over the post and clicked on it with his cursor.

Most likely to win first place in the upcoming tournament!

Hello my name is *****, with the upcoming player-versus-player tournament coming up in just a few days, as most of you know, numerous speculation has been brought up in many media outlets in regard to who will be the most likely winners of the event. While skipping the third and second position, aka bronze and silver rank. I would like to give my hypothesis on who has the biggest chance of being first place (Gold Rank).

Between the top rankers all being level 30 and being the first of their respective classes such as Eadward[Cleric], Amilia [Mage], Ulyle [Archer], Zaros [Warrior] and Zero [Rogue]. It is well known that all five of them had to stop doing quests and hunting mobs in order to stop levelling in order to participate in the event. However, this also allowed them to fully focus their time in purchasing better equipment as well as increasing their subclass skill, which for some can increase their overall strength. If we had to calculate the overall strength of each class and sub class of those players, the most likely winner would be Zaros.

Why you ask? Its simple logic, the warrior class is well known for being the best PvP class in early game, in terms of both defense and offence. We all known there exist numerous classes within the warrior's path, it was disclosed by Zaros that he managed to acquire a hidden classes within that path called [The Berserker] and that's not even including Zaros subclass [Slayer]. During an interview, Zaros briefly explained that the Berserker class was super strong, able to tear the human body apart with ease. Their physical strength far surpasses that of the average warrior classes. They appear to also be very fast. By sacrificing their defensive capacity for speed and power. The same could be said about the Slayer subclass, which is a subclass specialized for combat.

The Cleric is known for not being able to perform well in PvP or in PvE to that regard, as for the mage and archer class they may be stronger than the warrior in long range but if Zaros manages to close the distance it's pretty much a guaranteed win.

Now! The only one who have any chance of giving Zaros any type of trouble would be Zero. Currently no one has any information regarding this player other than his path. As he is the first rank in the global ranking, it wouldn't be surprising if he acquired unique skills or equipments that could reverse any of my earlier predictions. But if we had to compare a normal warrior versus a normal rogue player, it is well known that the rogue class has immense damage but that is only if they successfully ambushed their targets. When it comes to an official PvP, the opposing player could easily prepare defensive skills to counter any sneak attacks. And as such, this finalizes my speculation on who will win first place in the upcoming tournament.

Feel free to let me know your thoughts or your predications,

Thank you.

"…Il make sure not to allow this! Allowing this scoundrel to get any type of advantage would disrespect my promise to the original owner of this body. But… he does have a point. The warrior path those seem to be the go-to class for PvP battles. Let's go down to the comment section and see what other players think."

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

"AmiliaPrinceCharming: The first place is obviously going to be big sister Amilia. Her wits and charm will bring her at the top."

"SimpBully: you're so thirsty my man."

"AmiliaPrinceCharming: What? How am I thirsty? You're obviously jealous that Amilia accepted me into her guild, Frost Lust.

"SimpBully: There's no reasoning when it comes to your kind. Anyway, I believe that Ulyle would win this."

"ArcaneForLife: Ulyle? Didn't you read the post? The moment Zaros gets close, his pretty much done for. Get smart!"

"SimpBully: get some basic knowledge you uncultured swine. The archer path doesn't just use bows, they can also use the short sword. Ha~, I really can't deal with your kind either…"

"ArcaneForLife: My 'Kind' is the most knowledgeable in all games. Do you truly think that an archer that uses a small sword have a better chance than a warrior wielding a two hander in terms of strength?"

"SkillGuru: Why does that matter? What matters is skills, the player that manages to use their skills the strategic way, be it mage, cleric, warrior or whatever class will win."

"SimpBully: Are you being ser-"

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

"Yeah, that's enough. Comment section in any platform is always something to marvel at…"

Mylo rose from his seat, wore his workout clothes and set his way towards the gymnasium. After training for a full hour, he went back home ate another solid meal and headed back inside his capsule.

"I didn't see her today. She might be busy. Whatever."
