Chapter 21 - Legacy Tournament.

[Connecting...]

[White Online - Update - Ready!]

Isaac wiped his tears and grabbed the VR Helmet.

He lied down on the bed and put the VR Helmet on his head.

He blinked, and the next thing he saw was him being surrounded by a snowy landscape.

Hundreds of trees surrounded the area around him, no end in sight.

''Where am I..?'' Isaac thought aloud.

*Ding* *Ding*

Isaac looked thoughtful, 'Friend list added... But how come I got it after receiving a friend request from those girls?'

'Dungeons...' Isaac only cared about those two.

He didn't plan getting party and didn't plan searching Unique Classes either.

He didn't care about the buffs of different classes either, but the Assassin one made him worry more.

*Ding* *Ding*

Suddenly a pair of dinging noises echoed in his ears.

[Legacy Quest Received!]

[You have been chosen by Mythical Figure to carry his Legacy with pride!]

[Accept/Reject]

''What?!'' Isaac shouted with shock.

His voice echoed in the snowy forest.

''Is this scam?''

Isaac scratched his head, ''What the hell... Mythical Legacy? It seems too good to be real...''

*Ding* *Ding*

[You have been chosen by Mythical Figure to carry his/her Legacy with pride!]

[You are the third player to be chosen!]

[Player Wraith - Do you accept?]

[Accept/Reject]

''Third?'' Isaac tilted his head.

'There are others trying to get this legacy as well..?'

Isaac was suspicious about this, but there was also a sound in his mind shouting that he doesn't lose anything by accepting.

He is a casual player after all, and dying doesn't hurt Isaac that much.

Isaac sighed and pressed the Interface.

[You have accepted!]

[Mythical Figure is delighted with your decision!]

[You are The Mythical Figure's favorite!]

[Don't disappoint The Mythical Figure's expectations!]

[Legacy Tournament will commence in 1 week!]

[6 days - 23 hours - 59 minutes]

After those messages popped up, Isaac noticed the snowy landscape quickly disappearing.

Isaac's vision turned white once again, and once he opened his eyes, he noticed him standing near the village's gates.

''Was... That a dream?'' Isaac muttered, ''Interface.''

''It wasn't a dream...'' Isaac murmured.

He looked around him and saw every player minding their own business while few players were with their friends.

'I guess they weren't there... Otherwise, they would be talking with other players, trying to find out what it was... But Legacy Tournament, I thought you were supposed to find your own Legacy by adventuring the world... I guess I was mistaken.'

He took another look at the Interface and closed it.

He left the village and took another glance at the village.

He isn't planning to come back before level 10.

'1 week might be enough to reach level 10...' Isaac was planning to grind his way to level 10, but that means he has to be more careful as well.

Dying even once will have dire consequences.

He might lose the Legacy Contender title, and he would like to see what it is.

Isaac started running towards the forest with top speed, and only 10 minutes later, he reached it.

He ignored the low-level spawning points and went all the way to the level 7 hunting spot.

''RAA!'' He turned his head quickly and saw three Wild Wolfs approaching him.

[Wild Wolf]

[Level 7]

[HP: 70/70]

Three Wild Wolf's with the same level and HP approached Isaac while baring their fangs.

*SWOOSH*

The first Wild Wolf appeared in front of Isaac and swung his claws.

Isaac quickly sidestepped to the left and unleashed two rocks from his Slingshot.

[-7 HP]

[-9 HP]

''Grr!'' The Wild Wolf growled angrily.

[HP 54/70]

Isaac quickly ran towards a nearby tree and climbed to the top.

But the Wild Wolf pushed the tree back and forth, and Isaac almost fell because of it.

''Damn...'' He quickly started shooting his slingshot.

And soon, the first Wild Wolf died.

[You Killed Wild Wolf!]

[80 XP Earned!]

''GRR!'' The Wild Wolf became angrier, but after the first Wild Wolf died, it became much harder to make Isaac fall.

And because of that, Isaac quickly killed the two wolves.

[You Killed Wild Wolf!]

[80 XP Earned!]

[You Killed Wild Wolf!]

[80 XP Earned!]

Isaac sighed and left the tree.

He grabbed 3 Wild Wolf fangs from the ground and put them on the inventory.

Then he checked his XP bar.

[XP: 390/700]

Isaac was satisfied— he is sure that he will level 7 today.

*SWOOSH*

Isaac turned his head and saw a dagger approaching his face!

He widened his eyes out of shock and quickly put his hand on the way.

But the dagger pierced his arm.

[You lost 22 HP!]

Isaac grabbed the dagger and put it on his inventory.

He quickly hid behind a nearby tree and took a deep breath.

'Where is he?!' Isaac anxiously looked around the forest, but he saw no one.

*Crack*

Isaac widened his eyes and jumped towards the left.

Three daggers landed on the ground he was in.

Isaac quickly looked towards the tree and saw the outline of a person— but it looked like he was invisible, but you can still slightly see him.

'Invisible..? Stealth?! Assassin!' Isaac widened his eyes.

The Assassin snorted and left the tree.

He grabbed the three daggers and pointed one of his daggers towards Isaac.

Isaac tried to find his attacker's name, but he couldn't see it.

It means that Assassins have the ability to hide their nametag.

The Assassin looked at the 'girl' in front of him, 'She does have leather armor and only a slingshot... And she used the trees to kill the Wild Wolf's, which must mean that she is terrible at close-quarter combats... Marksman, maybe?'

Isaac did not know that the Assassin mistook him as a girl and wasn't aware that Assassin was greatly underestimating him.

'He doesn't know I have Flintlock pistol... I can win this!' Isaac narrowed his eyes and grabbed his slingshot tighter.

Assassins are extremely sneaky and terrifying opponents.

But they aren't best with close quarters either.

They don't have combat skills to do that because their special stat is Stealth, which is pretty useless in head-to-head combat.

But, Isaac was curious why Assassin was Fighter class without proper combat power, that made him curious about Assassin and Thief class.

Both of them didn't seem to have a lot combat strength, but some reason they were assigned as Fighter class.

The Assassin was confident in winning this fight— he grabbed his dagger tightly and threw it towards Isaac with incredible speed.

Isaac only saw his arm turn blurry, and soon item was flying towards him.

Isaac aimed the slingshot towards the dagger, and a small rock left the rubberband, straight towards the incoming dagger!

*CLANK*

The two objects collided in the air, and fell down to the ground.

The Assassin was amazed of Isaac's precision skills, 'How can he do that without being over level 10?! Did he spend all his stat points on Precision?!'
