Chapter 13

Chapter 13

As the force which rivaled Avalanche hit the mountaintop, the mad trolls scattered throughout the mountains in a mess.

Even though madness was being pulled out of them through the potion, their primal sense of fear still remained.

Sliide.

Seols face quickly changed from hope to despair.

After the dust had settled, Karuna and Jamad were both still standing. Tattered, exhausted, but still standing.

Did their massive skills really end in a draw?

Seol couldnt accept it.

A draw was essentially the same as a loss.

Damn it huh?

But something was off.

The two werent moving at all. They were just staring at each other.

Seol only realized what was happening once Jamad spoke to him.

Demon no, Shadow Summoner.

Raise.

Jamad turned his back on the glowing Karuna to face Seol.

There was a line carved deep into Jamads chest. It was clear that he was going to die.

And he left his final words.

Cough C-Collect me. I I! I cannot perish here! I have something something I must

Thud!

In the end, the moon was able to carve out the massive mountain.

Jamad fell flat on his face and withered away into the moonlight.

A few moments later, Seol received countless system messages.

[Jamad, the Mountain Shaman, holds a grudge toward Snowman.]

[Snowman is afflicted with a skin disease.]

[All stats will be decreased by 30% for a week.]

[All five brothers of the Rock Molar Tribe have died.]

[All grudges on Snowman have been dispelled.]

[You have defeated Jamad, the Mountain Shaman.]

[Your rewards have improved.]

[Rock Molar Treasure has improved to Rock Molar Divine Relic.]

[You have defeated the Five Brothers of the Pointy Mountains.]

[If the Remaining Time runs out or if you choose to take your reward, you may choose to finish your Adventure here.]

The ones that came up so far were the messages Seol was expecting.

[You have earned the achievement Five Unfriendly Brothers.]

[You have earned the title Demon of Early Mornings.]

[You have earned the achievement Family Feud.]

[You have earned the title Instigator.]

[You have earned the achievement I Can Do Well Alone.]

[You have earned the title Solo.]

There were a lot of messages to handle.

What Seol didnt know was that there were also other messages cheering for him.

[InTheFuture has donated 200 Madness!]

[Mom, when I grow up, Ill be like Snowman! Mom, when I grow up, Ill be like Snowman! Mom, when I grow up, Ill be like Snowman!]

- Ill take you in as the strongest lump of steel(Formerly Jamad)!

- Fuck! How could he make me, the indomitable man that is Oh Myeontae, cry like this Snowman who are you!!!

- Snowman Punch! Snowman Punch! He is a god!

[I was so shocked watching you while eating my soup has donated 300 Madness!]Updated chapters at novelhall.com

[Because the soup was so good.]

- Is this an ad? Huh?! Explain yourself!

- This stream includes a paid promotion.

- Poetic Justice! I enjoyed the stream!

[Public reaction right nowhas donated 200 Madness!]

[Murmur Whisper Murmur]

- Their reactions are as one-dimensional as always.

- Seriously I bet everyones going to eventually come to this stream.

- Did this guy really get the best reward?

[Snowman flipped over the mountains! has donated 100 Madness!]

[ (-) Yeet~~~!! () ]

- Urgh My chest hurts Because it was beating so much!

- Whats with the emoji lol its so cute

- But how was he able to get three titles? sheeesh

Snowman had received three titles from one Adventure.

Even one title in an Adventure would be considered a success but Snowman was able to receive much more than that.

So, what are the effects?

[[Title: Demon of Early Mornings]

Related Achievement: Five Unfriendly Brothers (Adventure: The 5 Good Brothers)

Bonus Effect: From midnight to sunrise, all stats increase by 3%.]

[[Title: Instigator]

Related Achievement: Family Feud (Adventure: The 5 Good Brothers)

Bonus Effect: Charisma slightly increases.]

[[Title: Solo]

Related Achievement: I Can Do Well Alone (Adventure: The 5 Good Brothers)

Bonus Effect: As long as there are no allies within 100m, all stats increase by 3%.]

The titles didnt have any incredible effects but they were useful in the long run when youve built up a lot of them.

Seol had successfully taken his first step.

Now that Seol had finished receiving his titles, he thought that no more messages would come up until he collected the rewards.

But he was mistaken. Change doesnt only happen to him.

Fssss

As the Moons Stage closed its curtains, Karuna lost his brilliant glow.

However, his exhausted body was still dimly radiating light.

[Great Match! Karuna awakens a new skill.]

[Karuna awakens Passive: Heroism.]

[Karuna has earned the achievement Mountain Cutter.]

[Karuna has earned the title The One Who Cut the Mountain].]

[Karuna has gained experience.]

[Karunas stats have been unsealed.]

[Your summon can now use 40% of its original strength.]

- Thats insane. Now his summons are growing too?

- Thats supposedly the Shadow Summoners unique characteristic. What a strange system

- What the fuck 20% was strong enough wouldnt 40% turn him into Saitama?

- Why the hell are summons getting titles too LMFAOOOO

- Info) The Great Match system rarely if ever triggers since the conditions are so strict.

- Fact) But it activated just now.

Seol quickly confirmed Karunas new skills.

First was Heroism.

It was a passive that had the effects of: When the stats of the enemy are 20% or higher than your own, all stats increase by 10%. (Applies to only one enemy at a time.)

So it means that it only triggers when theyre considerably stronger than you.

It was an okay skill.

Since Karunas monstrous stats were sealed when he became a summon, these effects were quite efficient.

Next was the title.

That was also another characteristic of The World of Eternity.

The world continuously changed.

Whenever a player sets an achievement, the world would change accordingly to match it.

The scale that it would change was hard to guess but this was definitely part of the reason why Seol was able to enjoy this game for 17 years. There was no way you could ever get tired of an ever-evolving game.

Just when Seol thought there wouldnt be any more messages, even more came up.

[Snowman's great achievements have caused changes in the world.]

[Large and small changes happen in Pandea, The World of Eternity.]

[Snowmans actions of causing the Rock Molar Tribe to disband from the Pointy Mountains is made known to all of Pandea.]

[Snowmans name echoes from the corners of Pandea.]

[The Gold and Carriage Merchant Association praises Snowmans achievement.]

[Kongory, the free city, is saved from the Rock Molar Tribes danger.]

[Citizens of Kongory will remember Snowmans name.]

[Earth Dragon Tancreed cannot bear the Rock Molar Tribes sad news.]

[Pandeas power balance braces for change.]

[All players can now select the Pointy Mountains Road Construction Adventure from the base.]

[All players can now select the Pointy Mountains Remnant Cleanup Adventure from the base.]

[With the increase in fame, all sorts of secret adventures are unlocked. However, you must discover these yourself.]

[You have acquired adventurer points.]

Seol achieved everything he set out to do.

Not only did he clear the Adventure by himself, he was even able to get the best rewards possible.

Haah

Before Seol realized it, it was already noon.

He thought of the cigarettes he quit smoking.

Finally, its the last one.

- Theres still some left?

- Guys I think Im going to go crazy!

- Why the hell does more keep coming out >:(

Seol messed with the interface in front of him and suddenly, a box decorated in bones came out.

Click.

Glooooow!

Seol didnt hesitate to open the box. A bright light made all of the items inside of it shone.

[You open the Rock Molar Divine Relic, the best possible reward.]

[You have leveled up.]

[You have leveled up.]

[You have received skill points.]

[You have acquired Divine Relic: Mountain Fists.]

[You have acquired Garment of Stone.]

Seol gave the Mountain Fists to Jamad.

Click.

Jamad swung his fists around a bit but didnt give much of a reaction other than that.

Not bad.

Seol took off his shoddy clothes and changed into Garment of Stone.

With the Full Moon Staff and the Garment of Stone, he looked like a completely different person.

- Why does he look like a high-level player now?

- Dont get too strong too fast, Snowman!

[[Spirits Root]

- This is way too much

Seol collected the Spirits Root.

He was obviously going to cook this before eating it.

I really got some good rewards with this.

And like that the Adventure came to an end and his body was swept up in light before disappearing.

* * *

Bzzzzz

Seol arrived at a new location.

It was filled with people.

People who didnt look like were native to this place.

The people shouted at each other in caution, almost like they were sent here just now.

I-Is everyone here Korean?

Where am I?

Hyein! Hyein! Mommys here! Where are you?

It was rowdy like a marketplace.

But, their cautions were instantly taken away by a single message.
