(At the Loslan Village.)
Francesca and the others are mesmerized by the scenery. We are resting at the same house when Ivonna and I spent a few days in the village. Emma and Francesca are standing in front of the window while enjoying the breeze. Michael is laying on the bed while the rest of us sitting at the table.
Michael is roll over on the bed to look at us.
"So, where is the Zerkhil's Valley at? Is it far from here?"
Ivonna turns around and looks at Michael.
"It's around 30 minutes from here. You'll be amazed at how terrifying but beautiful the place is."
Michael is humming with understanding. Grisell stretches her body and looks at me.
"Did you get all those high-quality materials from there?"
I nod.
"Yeah, we can try to go further into the valley and the monsters there have more amazing materials for forging."
Grisell raises her eyebrows excitedly.
"Then what are we waiting for? Let's go and hunt some monsters!"
We are looking at Leonardo because he got a new skill and it's called [Portal]. It's an extra skill that should be unlocked once a player chose magic as their main and unlocked a few spells. I'm wondering why he just got it now even though he's already level 208. The only thing that comes to my mind is that he's not really a mage, but a battle mage. There is a major difference between those two. Now that I think about it, I barely see him in action in the skirmish event nor a while back.
Right now, he's trying to understand what it does and how it works. I did offer him some explanation about the skill, but he wants to know about it himself. The reason why we are not going to Zerkhil's Valley right away is because of him. He's humming and looking at the skill's details.
Grisell is crossing her arms and sighs while looking at Leonardo.
"Are you done yet, Leo?"
Leonardo is nodding.
"Yeah, I think I understand now. Sorry to keep you guys waiting."
We all nod and then we leave Loslan Village and on our way to Zerkhil's Valley.
Grisell is looking at the ground while humming a song.
"It's fortunate that we can have a few days to prepare compared to the other factions. We can reach the max level before Sunday."
I'm furrowing my forehead and look back at Grisell.
"Max level? There's a max level in this game now?"
Francesca nods.
"Yeah, last month, the max level was 200. A week ago they updated the max level to 250. To be exact they updated it on the 25th of last month. The reason why they did it is that to make the new players not that far behind from old players. So yeah, we can reach the max level now since they just updated it a week ago."
I'm humming with understanding. Emma clench her fist.
"So, since Kingstar and the others are still busy with the qualifier, we can catch up with their levels or even beat them? Is that mean we all can be on the top leaderboard for a month?!"
Everyone nods. Emma is grinning happily. Francesca is chuckling.
"You're right. We can make them feel irritated because of that. That would be perfect, isn't it?"
Everyone is nodding while laughing.
We have arrived at Zerkhil's Valley. Everyone is looking at the hills and the volcano with their mouths wide open. Ivonna immediately equips her equipment and grabs her shield and lance. Everyone is also doing the same. Ivonna is squinting her head and pointing at the monsters and explaining what are their levels and what kind of moves and skills they have.
After everyone understands the situation, Ivonna looks at me.
"I think we have to go our separate ways, right?"
Everyone is confused and so do I. I tilt my head.
"And, why is that?"
Ivonna smiles.
"I think we are just going to dragging you down, are we not? You can hunt and farm by yourself and I believe it will be easier and faster for you that way. We will be fine on our own anyway."
Everyone is humming with understanding and then nods with an agreement. I scoff and smile.
"I see, well then. Let's meet up in the Loslan Village?"
They all nod and then we go our separate ways.
(2 days have passed in real-time.)
We are resting at the house after a month of farming and leveling in-game time. I open the official website and go to the player's leaderboard.
[Top 10 Players (Global)]
[1. Ivonna Ivon (Lv. 250)]

When the leaderboard was updated yesterday. All the people in the forum were shocked and spammed in their streams asking where they were at since they all were streaming when leveling up their levels in Zerkhil's Valley. Ivonna and the others teased their viewers and told them to find it themselves. Then the forums are filled with questions about the place Ivonna and the others are leveling at. Until now, nobody knows and hasn't found it. Some were close to finding the place, but they couldn't go further since the monsters are high levels. They chose the longest and the hardest route and it's obvious the monsters are harder compared to the route we are using.
I check my inventory and I have 42.852 Betelgeuse's Coin. I have enough to buy 3 [Betelgeuse's Legacy Shard] and then I can exchange them with [Betelgeuse's Legacy Box]. I also got tons of soul essences and consumed all of them. To be honest I'm beyond being called strong.

Everyone is looking at me so seriously. I look at them and raise my eyebrows. Francesca is chuckling mischievously while tiptoeing towards me.
"Can I see your stats?"
Emma and the others are running toward me and standing beside Francesca. We both are laughing at them. I sigh and share my status screen with them. As soon as the screen appears in front of them, they all are choking and looking away with disbelief, then they look back at the screen.
Michael is shaking his head and sighing.
"Dude... what the actual f*ck?! Your stat is broken... How is this even balance?! I mean, yeah sure LCKY is almost impossible to raise its value. But, what I can't understand is, how did you manage to survive and progress unbelievably fast without any stats other than LUK? You literally just played this game a month ago?! Are you cheating or something?"
I scoff and look at him while smiling.
"Maybe I'm just lucky? You can't blame me or anyone if I'm just being lucky, right?"
Michael is opening his mouth then immediately closing it because he can't answer my question. Grisell is humming while staring at my status screen.
"I should start raising my LUK stat from now on. I don't care if it's useless or whatever. But in the long run, this LUK status will be worth it."
Francesca is shaking her head.
"No, it will be impossible. How do you even get an extra point now? You're already at max level, and from now on raising your level will be difficult. Even if you manage to increase your level by 50 after they updated the max level, you will only have 50 extra points. That won't be enough. You need at least 1.000 extra points to reach the minimum of getting the LCKY stat to work. You have to spend 1.000 extra points just for that, and you will need at least 100 extra points to get at least 1 time to be lucky. It's not worth it."
Everyone nods with an agreement. Hans is sighing.
"I don't care about it. I don't even want to think about it."
Ivonna is smiling and then she stands up.
"Should we head back to the base now? We are done here, right?"
Francesca nods.
"Yeah, we are done here. Thanks to Leo portal skill, we can go back here whenever we want."
Michael nods and stands up.
"Alright, Leo. Bring us back to our base. We have gone for too long and it is time to prepare for tomorrow. It's a big day. We need to gather all the members and remind them about tomorrow."
They all nod and then Leonardo opens a portal. We all enter the portal and we are instantly back to Forsaken Clan base. Before they enter the base, Ivonna stops then turns around and looks at me. Everyone is looking at her with confusion.
"You have collected enough Betelgeuse's Coin, right? Are you going to exchange them now?"
I nod and smile.
"Yeah, I'm going to exchange it now and grab my own box."
Emma is excited and grabs my shoulder.
"Can you do the unboxing with us?!"
Everyone is nodding with excitement. I scoff and nod.
"Yeah, sure. I'll be back in a few minutes. You can gather your members first and give them a speech or whatever it is. I'll be waiting in the roundtable room."
Everyone is smiling and nodding with excitement. Then they all hurriedly get inside the base and gather the members. I leave and on my way to the exchange NPC.
I'm standing in front of the NPC and exchange 30.000 Betelgeuse's Coin for 3 [Betelgeuse's Legacy Shard].
[Betelgeuse's Legacy Shard (3) obtained!]
[You have met the requirements to make [Betelgeuse's Legacy Box]. Do you want to combine all the [Betelgeuse's Legacy Shard] to make 1 [Betelgeuse's Legacy Box]?]
[Yes] [No]
-
[Yes]
-
[Betelgeuse's Legacy Box obtained!]
[Voice of The World]
[Congratulations to player [T****r] for exchanging 10 [Betelgeuse's Legacy Shard] and combined them to become [Betelgeuse's Legacy Box]!
May the Betelgeuse bless you!]
-
All the players around me are looking up and reading the VoW. They're screaming with disbelief then they're looking at their friends and asking each other who is that player is. I'm standing in front of the NPC and he's just smiling at me. I shake my head and leave immediately.
I'm holding the box and looking at it.
"I spent a lot of time for you. You have to be worth it."
