Micro-leaf Paulownia

Battling an unusual form of personality dissociation, Motan admits to feeling the weight of immense pressure bearing down on him. Amidst this turmoil, he finds solace in a virtual escape called "The Realm of Innocence," a game that has become his sanctuary from stress.

In the realm where ambiguity reigns, Motan's behavior is unpredictable and impetuous, making him the instigator and mastermind behind myriad events that spiral out of control. Yet, within the sphere of virtue, his resilience and courage shine through, earning him the admiration of many who see him as the epitome of a righteous knight and a fair judge.

When dwelling in the balance of absolute neutrality, he adopts a demeanor of modesty and lethargy, mirroring the ordinary essence of every soul. Conversely, in the domain of chaotic evil, he transforms into a figure of madness and cruelty, embodying the very essence of a demon and deceiver, showing kindness only to himself.

[Head to Pato City, eliminate the 'Hero' Dave; Reward: ???]


Just earlier, when the young half-Orc priest drenched Dave with a bucket of the Water of the Gods, and left him chilled to his core, Motan immediately received a system notification:


[Unique task completed, Degree of Completion: 550%, Reward: Variety, Fraud profession experience: 1100 points]


Then, this piece of equipment appeared directly in his inventory.


 This is also why Motan is completely fearless; because whenever he senses danger, he can forcibly activate [Escape]and equip this special piece of gear. This would give him almost a fifty percent chance of safely retreating.


As for the remaining fifty percent risk... he doesn't care~
