Chapter 3 - Main Quest?

So, what precisely can this Level Cap System do? The system has switched tabs to Daily Pursuits! This week's Pursuits are all about physical strength! "Now bringing up Pursuits," the system said, as another post appeared.

{Daily Pursuit - Complete ten push-ups within two minutes}

{Reward - Five Experience Points}

So this is how it works, okay, I've only lifted, well, no weights, but I've got this! Roth went into position, and once he was on the ground. A timer attached on his face started counting down. Roth would finish the push-up by shouting out the number he was currently on. Roth had to repeat this five times because he wasn't the athletic type and was more nerdy than others.

{Daily Pursuit - Complete ten push-ups within two minutes - COMPLETED}

{Now Receiving Five Experience Points, Via Reward}

{Experience Points: 5/50}

Roth had a broad grin on his face. Could this assist me in passing the exam with flying colors?! "OK, system lady, what's next?" Roth spoke as if he was on the verge of becoming addicted.

{Daily Pursuit - Complete fifteen jumping jacks within three minutes}

{Rewards - Seven Experience Points}.

Roth performed exactly what the "System Lady" said, finishing the Pursuit on his second attempt.

{Daily Pursuit - Complete fifteen jumping jacks within three minutes - COMPLETED}

{Now Receiving Seven Experience Points, Via Reward}

{Experience Points: 12/50}

Okay, how many Daily Pursuits can I complete within a single day? Every day, only three Pursuits are generated. If not finished on the same day, all progress will be lost and the user will be assigned a new Pursuit. Okay, then, produce the next Pursuit so I can get this over with.

{Daily Pursuit - Complete twenty burpees, within two minutes}

{Reward - Twenty Experience Points}

For Roth this quest took him around twenty time to complete. The amount of times it took until completion almost drove Roth crazy.

{Daily Pursuit - Complete twenty burpees, within two minutes - COMPLETED}

{Now Receiving Twenty Experience Points, Via Reward}

{Experience Points: 32/50}.

One Stat point has been added, to strength!

{Strength: 6}

So, once I accomplish all of my Daily Pursuits, I'll get a stat boost in the week's category I've been opted. Okay, this appears to be a straightforward enough task! Roth discovered another aspect of his system when he went for his usual twenty-minute jog. Roth gained an additional point for Agility and Stamina.

{Agility: 6} {Stamina: 6}

Over the course of a full day, he worked on his system. Roth had settled into his comfortable bed, but to to his astonishment, another post appeared. "You have now fulfilled the prerequisites!" Would you like to participate in Dungeon leveling, User? You must pick Dungeon Leveling to do so!

Dungeon leveling, you say? Okay, I've never heard the phrase "Dungeon" before. Could it be a reference to monsters? If that's the case, do I genuinely have the necessary equipment, given that I'm still at level one? Well, before I dive into this, let me go back to yesterday when I was accumulating experience. I somehow unlocked something. Alright system, show Status screen!

{Family Member: Roth Lo'tap}

{Family Gene: Blood Manipulation}

{Current Level: 1}

{Experience Points: 49/50}

{Health Points: 5/5}

{Strength: 7} {Agility: 7} {Stamina: 7}

{Main Quest : Reach level two!}

{Reward: Five Skill Points}

This Main Quest event happened after I finished my Daily Pursuits and run. As a result, I feel it has to do with "Family Gene." Anyway, take me to Dungeon Leveling, System! You are now being taken to a location where time and space do not move in the same way. An hour on this vast plane is equal to one minute on the other. As Roth's atoms began to split, the System had spoken. They then reorganized themselves within a fled settlement. Then another post appeared. Unlike the other, this one was unique. "A randomizer", Roth reasoned.

Then a pause button appeared, and the letters on the screen started flashing one by one. When Roth pressed the pause button, the letter "C" appeared on the screen. Just then a dungeon letter ranking appeared on screen. At the top was listed S, and those behind it followed as so, S, A, B, C, D. How is this in any way a dungeon? I imagined a more medieval setting, rather than a run-down metropolis. Strange, aggressive noises could be heard from under nearby rumble at that moment. Roth grabbed a nearby blade as soon as he heard the disturbance. The sword looked corroded and worn out. Three new postings appeared at the same time.

{You've gotten a Rusted sword!}

{Compile three or more rusted swords to gain a sub skill.}

{Rusty Sword has a durability rating of 5/15. Description - A worn-out chunk of metal endowed with the one-of-a-kind skill, Sword Thrash.}

The odd horse-like monster suddenly emerged from the rumble. Its eyes were visible dangling from its sockets. Its lips expanded wide, dragging its long tongue around. Roth instantly regretted going to this location after seeing the beast. Although he recalled two things, one of which was that his sword had a skill. Another possibility is that he may learn a sub-skill. He'd try Sword Thrash first, and if it didn't work, he'd find three more swords. And then try to put his newfound expertise to use.
