Chereads / The Jackpot System / Chapter 8 - Sudden Quest

Chapter 8 - Sudden Quest

Receiving a sudden quest during the game, Eirik was stunned on his spot.

When others thought he couldn't move due to the strong force coming from the ball, suddenly Eirik jumped and hugged the ball before it could enter the goal line.

"Who is that goal keeper? How did he block the goal made by a Power Class Awakened?"

"I thought he would just be a weakling little fella with a Useless Class… It turns out he was a strong man!"

Many people were surprised that Eirik was able to stop the ball. After all, with that force it would have made ordinary people sent flying into the goal.

Even Eirik was surprised that he could do it.

But this event didn't occupy much of Eirik's thoughts. He was still thinking about the sudden quest. Why did this quest suddenly appear?

Whistle!

"Hey! If you get the ball, return it to the game!"

Hearing the sudden words of the umpire/warden, Eirik looked around him and then at his teammates.

Seeing that everyone was waiting for him to return the ball in the field, Eirik couldn't help but be embarrassed.

But it was understandable, he was still a newbie when it comes to soccer.

He threw the ball towards his teammates with his hands. However, due to his poor skills, the ball bounced on the floor and it led towards the enemy.

As if the captain of Eirik's knew that something like this would happen, he immediately snatched back the ball by tackling the opponent and immediately ran towards the opposite goal post.

As the players in the field continued to play, Erik returned to the goalkeeper's position and looked at the [Quest] tab in his System Window.

"Let's see…"

"What the heck? I thought there would be only one but now, there are four more!"

As Eirik looked around his Quest tab, the sudden quest he received wasn't the only one that appeared.

Usually, other awakenings need to finish or reach at least 50% completion rate before a new one appears.

But now, he even got different quests under different categories such as Sudden Quest, One-Time Quest, Seasonal Quest, Monthly Ques and even Daily Quest.

Fortunately those quests don't start until he gets out of the prison.

"But if I fail to get out… will I just stay here and become a miner?"

Just thinking about it, it gave Eirik a shiver.

He couldn't wait for the day of the trial to arrive.

Once he was given a chance to have his Status Window read, they would know for sure that he was innocent.

While Eirik was thinking about the trial, another incoming ball arrived in front of him.

Because this was just the second ball, Eirik went and blocked it again. To avoid getting embarrassed again, he immediately threw the ball towards his teammate. This time, the ball reached his teammates.

"Due to the sudden quest, I feel like I was given the agility and strength of a soccer player…"

After 45 minutes of playing, it was soon the break time.

When Eirik reached the bench for their team, his teammates came towards him.

"Hey! You were good earlier. Why are you hiding yourself?"

"The one who shot the ball got a Power Class, he should be above the strength of normal Awakened but you could block it!"

Hearing their praises, Eirik could only scratch his head in embarrassment.

This was the first time he received compliments.

"Thank you for the compliment…"

This was the only response that Eirik could give.

When a warden came in to distribute water bottles for everyone, Eirik's teammates left him in order to get water.

Meanwhile, Eirik couldn't help but check his Status Window. After hearing what his teammates said, he had some hunch that maybe his status window changed because of the sudden quest.

…]

"Whoa! There really are some changes. Are these the ordinary status of a Goalkeeper?"

Before the quest, his status window was just those ordinary numbers +5 because of his passive skill. But now, they change to what most likely are the ordinary attributes of a Goalkeeper.

"But once the game finished, will my status window revert to before or will it just stay like this?"

Eirik will only know the answer after he finished the quest. Honestly, he was looking forward to it. If his status window remained the same after this, wouldn't his System Class, Extra Ordinary trait be an overpowered one?
