8. Event start

(Ik this is a bit late but this was written on Easter so it counts)

Now caught up with the rankers in level I decided to go shopping with my remaining gold

There were many clothing stores but they all sold armor and not the plain old clothes I was looking for. Taking a break from the crowds of people in a nearby alleyway I leaned against what I thought was a wall before falling backwards into a shady store

"Ah… welcome" a robed old lady welcomed me as I wandered around the store

Everything in the store was strangely exactly what I was looking for from my preferred colours to styles

"This is so sketchy…" I muttered to myself

Walking around the store there were no price tags but some items had an "on-sale" tag, I decided to get a set that was on sale as I didn't want to be too wasteful with my money

"Hey I noticed that this doesn't have a price tag, I was just wondering how much it costs?"

"Hmm? Oh the midnight set Eh… that one isn't too expensive…" she muttered

"So how much gold do I need to pay"

"Oh we don't use gold here" she rubbed her hands together

"Huh? Then how do I pay?"

"Trust me, you already have," she said with an evil cackle

"That's cryptic" I blinked and the scenery turned back into the alleyway

"I'm not sure if I want this anymore" I looked down at the clothing set in my arms before equipping it

It was a simple long-sleeved shirt, pants, gloves, boots, belt, mask and robe but the only thing unique about it was that the set was pitch black with little white dots over it

The clothing suddenly started feeling tight but it was barely noticeable

——————————

The midnight sets curse has been activated! Survive the constriction of the set for 24 hours to unlock its full potential

"Shit! It's gonna start crushing me?!?" I started panicking but after 30 seconds nothing happened… 30 seconds turned into a minute and a minute turned into 5

-1 hp

"Is that it?..."

5 mins later

-1 hp

"I regen faster than it hurts me…" I said while shaking my head and continuing on with my day

Up next on my shopping list, Dragapi has asked me to get her some makeup… the one problem is that… both of us know absolutely nothing about makeup so I decided to just get the beginner kit the attendant recommended

Walking out of the store I notice a huge crowd, climbing up a building I see what's happening in the center of the circle, a fight was happening between two players. One was an archer and the other was a knight

Every arrow was skillfully blocked by the knight's great shield and every swing of the knight's axe was dodged skillfully by the archer

It was an even match up, suddenly the archer ran towards the knight before running up his shield and doing a front flip off of it to land behind the knight before firing an arrow killing the other player

"That's Sterkol for ya! If he had an aoe skill I bet he could finally break through into the top 10 rankers" people from the crowd commented

I had never seen someone fight like that. This whole time I've just been using basic dodges and blocks but using the terrain and the enemy's weakness never occurred to me

"Guess the difference between me and the rankers isn't just level…" I lay down on the roof before getting up and delivering the makeup to Dragapi

Wondering what to do with my day a screen popped up I front of me

—————————————-

All players. Please find a safe place to log out as in 30 minutes the server will close down for update 1.1

————————————-

I walked upstairs and fell into my bed before pressing the log out button

Waking up on my bed in the real world I took the helmet off and stood up to go to the bathroom

Upon sitting on the toilet seat I opened my phone and looked at the update description

——————the companion update—————

minor bug fixes

———————————————

"That's it? thought it would be a much bigger update but I guess not" I finished up using the bathroom and went back to my headset to see that the update was done already

Waking back up on the third floor of the cafe the only difference I could notice was that the logging-in process was a lot smoother
