Looking at the enticing button that had the word 'spin' on it, Tang Zhan wanted to press it so bad, but nervousness of the unknown made him unable to. Ever since he had the current system Void, he had started to like the rewards he got from it, those rewards were more than enough to keep a village champion on his toes in happiness and joy, and he as well as begun to take on those excitement.
The excitement of this roulette was even more exciting than the regular quest reward, you know it is fixed and there's nothing you can do about what you get because it is all depending on your input to the quest, but now no hard works or fixed rewards as everything is perfectly randomized and whatever he gets depends on his luck and fate.
Tang Zhan looks back at his companions that were busy chatting behind him, the to the front and sees that he is about to reach the hill where the lord's manor is located.
He hesitantly presses the spin button as a current discharge occured at the point of impact. Without delay the roulette was running around the world in a blurry speed.
Tang Zhan secretly prayed for something good, but he does it half-heartedly as he doubts getting anything bad, since the system is only filled with top rated items.
The speed the roulette began with was now dwindling, rather than the sprint at the beginning it was barely even jogging now, it just kept rolling and rolling, slowly revealing the symbols that disappeared at the beginning. Tang Zhan's eyes followed it turn by turn as his eyes stays on the stopper that was trying all it's best to grab onto the roulette's edge.
Few seconds later and the roulette stopped, the section which the drawing of a compass with two swords crisscrossed atop it.
♪Wooo! That's some nice shit you got there boy, are you sure you weren't married to the goddess of luck in your previous life... No I doubt it, you wouldn't have k- anyways that's your notification.♪
[Ding! Congratulations on getting the Adventurer starter pack.]
♪The adventure pack, owned by those that would later on become travellers of worlds and realms, that's if they love that long.♪ Void pipes up again as the panel closes, a new one popping up.
♪The adventurer starter pack, is filled with items that will help you on the way to being an adventurer, for starters there is skill proficiency.♪
[Skill proficiency.
- Skills set can be increased not only by learning, practicing and getting better, but can also be increased by sacrificing experience points.]
'Skill proficiency, nice skill to have but sacrificing my experience points, that will stunt my growth real bad.'
♪And you call yourself smart, what's all your exp multiplier doing lying in waste, although using them for yourself is great, you will become strong increasingly fast but you will affect your real strength and your output will be unstable, you have to grow stronger steadily so as to build a solid foundation, so I'll advice you use the multiplier for your skills and weapons or any artifacts you might later have. As for the next item in the starter pack, you have heaven blessed.♪
[Heaven blessed.
- Blessed by heavens themselves, you are built differently from others as you are not restricted to few things, rather everything is possible for you to learn. Every profession needs a talent for them to be learnt, but you are omni-talented.]
'Omni-talent? To professions, I'm loving this more and more.'
♪Yeah that is right. It's only one of the few starting things you get as an adventurer. On to the next, is rising star♪
[Rising star.
- A rising star you are, as anywhere you go your popularity will be on the good side even with strangers.]
♪Short description but better use and function, you always have a loved aura around you as even the most secretive elves will allow you stay for a day or two. You also have the final one for now, affection popularity sight.♪
[Affection/Popularity sight.
- Your popularity with nations and cities and places in general will be displayed whenever you look at them, as well as living creatures, but you see their affection instead.]
♪Yup the cherry on top, the popularity part of it makes you know a place where your fame might have either gone downhill or rising uphill, helps you know a place that is welcoming or not, this saves a lot actually and you would grow used to it I'm sure of that, while the affection part oooh! Killer. Not only can you see value of affection people have for you but you can also see what type exactly it is, isn't it nice.♪
Tang Zhan looked at the notification panel before him and a smile crept up his face. 'It is truly as you said, short description but better use and function, now let's make the best use of all these.' Reaching up to the hill, the town lord manor sat gently on the grass patched ground.
Tang Zhan looks at the wooden double gate before him as he stops and turns to face the rest.
"Sooo... This is it, the town lord manor. From here we'll be able to ask and clarify some things and probably buy a land or better still a house in the town." Tang Zhan says as the family also reaches him.
Tang Zhan finally notices a difference, an item that wasn't ever there before now suddenly appeared above everyone's head.
He looks above Banjo's head as he sees five symbol lined after each other with a percentage on each of them, signifying that all five were a hundred each and five hundred as a whole. The symbol was an outline of two hands locked together in an handshake, and only half of the first one was still filled, which means about fifty percent.
'So the outline of an handshake, that... Shouldn't that be like the symbol for friendship.' Tang Zhan thought applauding himself gor his wild guess.
♪See that for yourself, didn't I say you would know the meaning.♪ Void pipes in cutting off Tang Zhan from his short celebration.
'So he counts me as half a true friend, lucky me. So Yufei...' Tang Zhan shifts his vision to his sister as looks at the image above her head.
Shockingly he couldn't understand the image neither could he guess its meaning, it was the image an arrow nocked to a bow, and out of five two were filled to the brim, meaning that two hundred percents of whatever affection Yufei had for her brother.
'Void what does that mean? I don't think I can ever understand this one no matter how I look at it'
♪Okay even I am short of words, I have never seen this before nor is it recorded in anywhere.♪ Void said confirming the mysteriousness of the symbol.
'okay let's forget that for now' he decides and looks towards his mother and father.
Above their heads is the same symbol, a huge heart with branches spreading out from it and each of those branches holds on it another heart, three out of five were filled with the fourth one just beginning to have a little.
♪Wow! Three hundred and few percents, your parents must truly love you, if only I had parents that could love me as so.♪ Void exclaimed causing slight irritation from Tang Zhan.
Tang Zhan was about to turn until a bright light flashed in his eyes, he had to blink up to five times before he could dispell the aching feeling it left in his eyes. Returning his sight to the previous thing he had glanced by, he saw it was something above X's head.
♪What the...♪
Above X's head was a floating huge heart, it was totally empty but had just a drop at the bottom. This drop was the one that was bright enough to rival even the sunlight.
♪No way... How did it already reach second level?♪
'Hey, hey hey talk to me, what is that thing and what is the second level you are talking about, why is it so bright and huge?'
♪That... Is what happens when all five hearts are filled and then evolves, this is the result of the evolution. It is called synchronic affection, where she feels what you feel and you feel what she feels equally.♪
'That image is for love right, and this synchronic affection, is so bright when it is only at like one percent.' Tang Zhan confusingly says.
♪One percent you say? That one percent is more than enough to make you both share heartbeats and you still say one percent. Synchronic affection is a level that surpasses space and time, and the effects the one percent is currently giving you both, is just still the tip of the iceberg. You haven't seen anything at all.♪
