" What do you mean this thing can be useful for my further journeys !!!?" Rangga asked the system.
Hearing that question, System gives its analysis of the Predator's probability of usefulness whether if the Predator is killed or spared.
< Probability of Usefulness >
< Option: Kill >
< Probability Gain: >
< 1) Item: Predatory Blade (Rare) >
< 2) Item: Predatory Armor (Rare) >
< 3) Skill: Predator's Gluttony >
[ User has the power to eat other beings like Predators do, this skill can increase HP, EP, MP & EXP twice per second for 6 minutes. ]
< 4) Level Up +7 >
Seeing the first probability gain, Rangga nodded as he almost accept the kill option but before he asked System what happens if he spared the Predator.
< Option: Spare>
< Probability Gain: >
< 1) Item: Predator's Egg (Rare) >
< 2) Item: Predator [Pet] (Rare) >
< 3) Skill: Predator Tamer >
[ Tame the Predator and its Predatorlings horde ]
< 4) Level Up +4 >
< 5) Function: Loyalty Point unlocked >
[ A point that will increase companion's or pet's loyalty to the user. ]
Seeing the two options, Rangga began to think critically as both options are very intriguing. As he thought to himself, the Predator's belly begin to move as System said that the Predator is going to lay its egg.
Hearing that statement, Rangga thinks as fast as he can to reach his most advantageous decision.
"( I can kill this thing with my weapon right now, after all the items that System said it offered were very useful right now. )"
"( But ..... )"
"( Somehow in the bottom in my heart, I felt guilty leaving this thing half-dead although I knew of its danger, but .... )"
As Rangga reflects on himself on what should he do, he has instantly reminded himself about the day when he watched Undefeated defeated a Grand Kaiju with his punch.
At that moment, the Kaiju was also laying its egg to which the other heroes were trying to kill it before it hatch which Undefeated stop them from doing it.
" What are you doing Undefeated? we need to destroy that egg now before it hatches the bringer of our doom !!!!! " the hero said.
Undefeated just shakes his head in his disagreement as he decided to pick those eggs and take them far away. After a few days, it can be seen that Undefeated was playing with the Kaijulings that already hatched in an isolated island dedicated for it.
At that moment, a reporter who was sent there by those news channels asked Undefeated about why did he spare those little threats, etc, etc and etc. Hearing that Undefeated just looks at them and said.
" Because they're innocent of course, how could I brutally kill a growing baby just because it had a dangerous potential? "
( Returning to the present)
Rangga nodded at what Undefeated said in his memory as he makes his decision.
" Okay then System, ..... I choose Spare !! " Rangga said as he smiles excitingly.
< "Are you sure user Rangga, are you sure about your option, or do you want to rethink it for another couple of minutes?" >
" Well of course I'm sure after all, a soon-to-be hero like me has to show kindness and mercy is it not? " Rangga asked.
< ... >
< " What makes user Rangga think of that? ">
" Well first, it's because I'm kinda scared of killing a child basically since the child was just born for a few minutes so I think it's unfair to end it quickly. "
" Second, it's because of my desire to become a hero just like Undefeated a nice, brave and powerful honorary guardian of justice who always brings hope to the people of the earth wherever he goes. "
< " Just like that user Rangga? you relinquished the first option just because of your desire to be a Hero ... ? " >
Hearing that question Rangga answered, " Well not just that, I wanted to be a hero not just because I'm Undefeated's fan but also I wanted to become a hero ... "
" To make my grandma proud at least because of me. "
< " I see, is there another reason you choose the second option rather than the first option? " >
" Yes there is, the most logical reason of all, it's because ..... "
" Since the second option has more benefits than the first option of course, just look at this Taming a horde ( Predator Tamer's skill effect) that's a cool one I could create an army with this to raid all the upper floors !!!!! " Rangga said in excitement as he imagine himself riding the Predators to fight against the other Candidates.
< " I see but what about the first option gained skill, isn't also useful for you? " >
" Well ..... " while looking at the first option.
Rangga thinks for a moment as he examines the skill with his eyes, at first glance he almost loved the skill's effect but he finally turned it down because.
< Probability of Usefulness >
< Option: Kill >
< Probability Gain: >
< ........ >
< 3) Skill: Predator's Gluttony >
[ Skill Detail ]
[ Advantage ]
[ User has the power to eat other beings as Predators do, this skill can increase HP, EP, MP & EXP twice per second for 6 minutes. ]
[ Disadvantage ]
[ Drains the user HP and EXP also the risk of a level downgrade due to the skill's constant hunger and greed. ]
" No no no .... System I've made my decision I chose the Second Option since this skill could give me some trouble if I don't overdo it no... "
< " I see, so no turning back user Rangga? " >
" No, the decision is final ... "
< " Okay then, the second option is chosen ... " >
< Congratulations you've acquired the option rewards (x5) >
After Rangga accepted the reward, Rangga approach the Predator and ask System to add it to his pet list.
< " Understood, adding Predator to pet list. " >
Predator with its weak breath looked at Rangga as Rangga lends his hand.
" Ooooo Deranged beast of this floor, you've been wandering the wilderness for too long."
" For now you will be in my aid and I promised you I will give you power beyond your current capabilities. "
" Will you accept me as your Master? " Rangga asked with a smile.
Predator looks at the hand at close its eyes, reacted to that System notified.
< " The Predator has accepted your request, now the Predator will swear its eternal allegiance to you. " >
< " Initializing Predator's resetting with System's specifications. " >
< " Initializing Predator's loyalty towards user Rangga. " >
After System said that, the Predator instantly changed to a smaller version of itself but a little bit stronger as its body was covered with muscles, a .... much cuter face, and form.
< Loading Loading Loading >
< Pet name: Predator (Rare) >
< Label: Safe >
< Level: 11 >
< HP: 1.100/1.100 >
< Race: Deranged >
< Location: Torture Floor >
< Note: >
< The Predator, a wild Deranged beast who rules this floor as its top feeder, this thing was known to eat all bystanders and Candidates who unluckily stumbled in its way as it usually roams free in the floor. >
< Physical Attribute: >
< Shorter but Sharper Claws, Retractable tentacles, buzzsaw teeth, Agile body due to its decreased size. >
After the System notified about its status, the Predator began to approach Rangga as it behaves like a good house dog,
" Skkrriiekkkk Skkrriiekkkk Skkrriiekkkk," it said as it wrinkles its tail.
Not just that, out of nowhere System suddenly popped up.
< Congratulations, You Leveled Up >
< Current level 12 >
< You've got an Achievement >
< Achievement: Passing LV.10 >
< Reward: Class Selection >
< Congratulations, now you can pick a class >
< 1. Saber (Attack Type) >
< Weapons used: close and middle range weapons. >
< 2. Archer (Range Type) >
< Weapons used: Long-range weapons. >
< 3. Shielder (Defense Type) >
< Weapons used: Defense weapons+semi close-range attack weapons. >
< Choose only one, beware because once you choose you can't switch to another class, choose wisely. >
Seeing these choices, Rangga checked the details of each class. He checked from Saber where this class has the advantage of strong ATK and DMG as well as additional stable status and clearly this class is the most recommended class.
Besides Archer, this class does have good ATK and DMG as well as outstanding speed and accuracy, but its weakness is that stamina runs out quickly and skills that are very dependent on ammunition.
Then the last Shielder, this class is equipped with a shield weapon because this class is very strong in terms of protection. In addition, this class is usually equipped with side weapons that can help in attacking the enemy. But this class has less DMG because the weapons tend to be blunt.
"Hmm… of all the classes I have to choose one, …. Hmmm," said Rangga, having a hard time choosing because the existing classes were very good.
Rangga thought and analyzed what power he needed in this cave-like location. He also read again the details of each class and asked the system for directions about the physical form of this floor.
The system also explained that this floor has a large room but there are many traps, which requires Rangga to rely more on armor in his exploration. Hearing the word armor, Rangga's gaze shifted to the shielder class where he found information that this class can increase the stats and effects of armor-type equipment after passing level 10 and increase the effect of potion items.
"Well then, since I need a lot of protection to survive then I choose Shielder as my class !!!!!!!!!! ' said Rangga steadfastly.
< So you choose 'Shielder' as your class? >
< Do you want to continue to choose this class or cancel and rethink again? >
< Yes/No >
Without hesitation, Rangga pressed 'yes' and the system instantly changed his appearance, where now he has two weapons namely a medium shield and a medium-sized club, and a shielder's template outfit.
"Well this is fine…., but is this outfit a bit too flashy? " said Rangga who felt bad if he was seen wearing armor while the other possible 'candidates' wore ordinary clothes.
Then the system notifies him that he can hide his attributes when he is level 16 later, knowing that Rangga is happy and starts farming first so that he has enough level to enter the Dungeon.
"Luckily I'm used to playing games, even though I'm not a pro but I know roughly what to do," he said happily.
