The Anomaly

I chose Karma Points for one simple reason… it was the best option available.

For sure, the proposed Skills were sure to be useful. After all, they would be equal to the amount of work I had put in… at least by the calculation of the System.

Even the Grade 2 Drop that would be awarded was certainly going to be top tier, even among items of the same grade.

However, these two options had one thing in common. Uncertainty!

I had no idea what I would be getting, so what was the point? What if I got something I already had? Besides, even if they were entirely new, I barely had any Skill Slot left—exactly three!

Not only did I have to learn Skills from the Hobgoblin King, but also from the other Hobgoblin Chiefs and Champions. There was a good chance I would be getting more Skills soon, but, I couldn't take the risk.

The Grade 2 item option was very tempting, but Karma Points were more important! That much was certain.
