"Domain Ruler, You are an Immortal Adventurer, and unlike inhabitants of this world, you can reach the requirement for Rank promotion by just killing other living beings, which is wonderful, but it will make progressing your strength very difficult after you reach the peak third Rank."

"My advice to you will be to take full advantage of your gift but not fully depend on it," Darrien said as he appeared before Alex.

"Domain Ruler, The best way to recognize an individual weakness is in the heat of the battle, so for Now, you should go and try fighting a tough opponent, which will help me determine what you need to focus on at your current stage," Darrien said and vanished back into thin air.

'I know with my current stats I can brute force through any Mortal or even First Rank creatures, but a peak first Rank creature should be challenging to fight.' Alex thought.

'Let's equip my ring before leaving this place.' Alex thought as he took out both legendary quality rings from his inventory.

'I only have two accessory slots, and I selected two rings now focused on Mana and the other one on the Strength, but now that I have the new and improved Nexus bracelet, I will need to decide between the two rings.' Alex thought, looking at the black and golden rings in his hand.

All players only have two slots for equipping accessories, and in the accessory category, everything from [Rings, Earrings, Bracelets, Bangles, Etc] was included, and at a time, a player could only equip two of such items.

A player can switch between accessories as he pleases, but certain conditions need to be met for it to work.

There were few restrictions to prevent players from breaking the game balance by continuously switching between different items and using their skills.

A player can't equip an unequipped item for one hour, and if the item in use has any of its skills on the cooldown, it can't be unequipped, and these same restrictions were applied to weapons and armor.

'I planned to equip both of these rings to boost my Mana and strength, but now that I have acquired the Nexus bracelet, which provides pretty good mana boosts, so choosing the strength-oriented ring is the only option.' Alex thought, looking at the pitch-dark ring.

'The physical stats boosts are great, and the skills are also good.' Alex thought as he looked at his new ring stat window.

'The Tenacity skill is just downright broken, and even though the mana required for using it is very high, but for me, who had a ridiculous amount of mana, this is just the perfect skill.' Alex thought.

The Tenacity skill was the reason that Alex chose this ring over other better strength-oriented rings because the skill value would only increase as he reached higher Ranks and fought more dangerous and intelligent creatures.

'This Ring looks very nice, but unfortunately, it will be hidden by my armor glove.' Alex thought as he removed his right glove and wore the ring.

The ring was pitch black, carved out of a crystal-like material that looked and felt smooth as a mirror with no imperfection.

'I want to test the restoration and limits of my legacy weapon if it has any, but with the consumable weapon being limited to just Mortal Rank, it will take too much time to see any proper results, so doing it after reaching a higher level will be the best choice.' Alex thought, looking at his legacy weapon stats.

'Let's leave this place and buy the essential potions and food before going to the endless forest to find a tough challenge.' Alex thought as he walked toward the exit door.

---------------------------

"Sir Adventurer, Thanks for purchasing the information." A bearded man with a muscular frame said to Alex with a bright smile as he held onto a white flame coin.

"I want Named Creatures and only those at the peak of the First Rank or those at the beginning of the Second Rank," Alex replied as he casually threw a second while flame coin toward the man.

After leaving the secured chamber, Alex went straight to restock on supplies, and after he was done shopping, he decided to visit the main headquarters Information Den, an NPCs-run organization that sells information.

Alex decided to visit Information Den because he decided to change his plan from fighting just any peak first Rank creature to fighting a Named creature, and as those creatures were not commonly available, so as not to waste time searching for one, he decided to buy the location of such creature.

"This is the exact location of the five creatures that fit your criteria, and I have added the location of two more creatures at the early second Rank, with both of them being pure blood, but be warned that their inhabitant area will pose a tremendous challenge to even a peak Second Rank warriors." The man said as he handed Alex a small map with a few marked areas.

Alex took the map, left the building, and started sprinting toward the city exit, and in fifteen minutes, he was standing outside the endless forest.

'He wasn't lying when he said that the environment will be challenging to fight in as one area is the [Lifeless Swamp], with the creature being a pure-blood Poison Alligator,'

'The other area is in the far north area (Frozen Death Canyon), with the creature being the Ice Spirit Bear, and fighting such a true predator in such a bad environment will end badly even for a peak second Rank warrior,' Alex thought, looking at the system map he synchronized with the map he received from the organization.

'I want to kill both of these creatures as they will give a hefty amount of exp and challenging battle experience, but fighting them with my current stats will be suicidal.' Alex thought, looking at his new stat window.

'I can start by killing the first Rank named creatures to quickly reach level twenty, and if the opportunity presents itself, I will try fighting the Second Rank creatures.' Alex thought as he walked into the forest.

After navigating through the dance for four minutes, Alex reached the nearest location marked on the map, and after some looking around, he found his target resting on the thick tree.

'Let's use the Artifact Appraisal skill and see if it has changed like the Devour Skill.' Alex thought as he used the skill on peacefully sleeping Shadow panther.
