A Girl's Life in a Gaming World

"Hey, does it work??" Alex asked once more. 

"..." 

If it does really work, then dying once or twice a day won't be a problem. She doesn't even need to hunt monsters to level up. She just needs to die, and experience points will be coming her way. Her issue of leveling up at a slow pace in the future looks to be solved. 

Lumiere's silence only proves that her theory will probably work. "Anyway, so how much experience did I lose??" If she remembers it right, she has more or less 5500 before the fight with Chaos.

Lumiere, who has been silent all this time, has finally given her the answer she wanted. "According to the system, the theory you thought of works. But it is undoubtedly not a loophole and cheating.

"Hmm??" Alex thought there must be more to it if the system does not consider it cheating. 

There are probably some restrictions to it, just like the two times increase in required experience or the 24 hours cooldown before she can steal other players' skills. 

"It is because it isn't certain whether you can kill all the monsters summoned in an hour. Might I remind you that, you lost 9555 experience points. Since killing a chaos apostle usually give at least 2000 experience points. Do you really think you can kill 9555 goblins alone in under an hour without healing potions and healing magic?? You will be surrounded on all sides without a break. And once your health reaches 10% everything will reset. You will start all over again every time you're about to die."

"So, do you think you can take advantage of it? Your experience will continue to rise every time you level up. More experience points mean more enemies. Higher floors may have lesser enemies since they give more experience but they are a lot stronger compared to lower floors." 

Alex's delusion of taking shortcuts was slapped by Lumiere's explanation. 

* Name : Alexandria * Race : Human

* Weapon: None * Title : Hero +

* Character Level : 8 * Weapon Level : 8

* Health : 1340 * Mana : 620

* Strength : 28 * Agility : 28

* Experience required to Level: 0  / 25600

* Skills: Great Ax's Weapon Proficiency.

"I can't, but I'll do it in the future." Alex smiled at her. It's not like she never fought being outnumbered. If she can do it in Guardian, she can also do it here. Healing magic? She can steal Ezekiel's magic, and if he doesn't let her, she'll just find other healers. As for being outnumbered, it's not like she can't find large-scale magic in the future. Her potential is limitless, and it is still the game's first day. There is no point in worrying about the experience she lost that she can quickly gain back in the future. Besides, she is already level 8; based on that alone, she is already ahead of everyone. 

"Now then, summon those monsters. Let me see their strength." Alex uttered as she stood up. However, she hadn't even walked a few steps before she staggered to her feet, swaying a little. 

"Tsk," Alex clicked her tongue in annoyance. Even though the meditation was effective, it doesn't mean that she recovered all her strength, just enough for her to walk around. Damage to the soul can't easily be fixed by meditating for 30 minutes. Meditating only helps her temporarily move around and prevents it from getting worse. She still needed a real rest, like sleeping or hours of meditation. 

"You still want to fight when you can't even walk a few steps!!" Lumiere can't believe her.

"It's fine, it's fine, I won't die in here right?? I just want to try." Alex pleaded. Even after meditating, there are still traces of adrenaline from her fight with Chaos. "Besides I know my body more than you do." 

Lumiere can only let out a sigh and relent to her stubbornness. As soon as she finishes early then, she can rest earlier. 

[Summoning Void Tower's 1st Floor Goblins]

Then four huge black doors to the size of a fortress' gate forming a cross appeared a hundred meters away from her. Then not even a second passed before goblins came charging forth at her on all sides. It was as if they couldn't wait to tear her apart. 

She breathed out and relaxed her whole body forming a drunken stance. She can't fight all out with her current state, so she decided to take it easy. 

"Do they hate me??" Alex mumbled. The goblins she's facing look even way worse than those berserk goblins she fought. Soon hundreds of goblins arrived in front of her. She quickly dodged their strike, weaving in between in their attacks. Then counterattacking by knocking her enemies down with her palm stikes. 

However, with how weak her physical strength she did not even last a minute being surrounded on all sides. She was buried by the sea of goblins coming at her without any resistance. But just as she was about to die, Lumiere intervened. 

[You Failed] It was then followed by the goblins disappearing in the blink of an eye. It was as if they weren't there, to begin with. 

"Satisfied??" Lumiere enquired at Alex, who was lying on the ground. 

"So weak!!" Alex mumbled with frustration. First day and she is already reduced to such a state. But despite the frustration, she felt, a broad smile was plastered on her face. She was extremely satisfied she hadn't felt this in a long time. 

Alex closed her eyes; she wanted to sleep. 

That short fight drained all the energy she had just recovered. However, she hadn't even rested for more than a minute before Lumiere interrupted her. 

"Sorry for interrupting your rest but your friend Ezekiel is calling you. Do you want to answer?" 

"Hmmm," Alex lazily answered without opening her eyes. 

"Where are you? I'm in the village chief's house!?" Alex was tired; however, Ezekiel woke her up when she found out that he was already in the village finding her. 

She was confused about why is Ezekiel in the village already. Then she found out that except her, everyone who died had revived 30 minutes after the tutorial finished.

  It was thanks to the tutorial's quest to reduce the death penalty to half. But her case is an exception because of Chaos's direct attack on her, which broke all the rules of the tutorial. While Ezekiel and those who got caught in the aftermath of the explosion only dropped all their items. 

[Hold Off Goblin Invasion]

*Hold off the goblin invasion for 1 hour to allow the villagers have time to evacuate the village.

*Quest Failure: Half of Honey Combed villager's death

*Reward: Honey Combed villager's survival

*Tutorial quest's benefit: The death penalty is currently reduced to half of the standard death penalty: Players will only drop 25% of the stored items in their inventory. And lose all equipped non-soul bounded equipment.

She also heard from him that everyone received a title as a reward for completing a hidden quest. She wasn't paying attention much when she checked her stats earlier, so Lumiere reminded her of the plus sign. 

After pressing the plus sign, she saw two new titles blinking non-stop in her stats.

* Village's Hero - 50% discount on all transactions with Honey Combed villagers.

* ??? Chaos - Reduce skill's cooldown by 10%
