(Samuel's POV)
"H-Have sex with MILFs?" I asked as I stood there, completely confused, "W-What the actual hell?"
What kind of System is this? I was just told that I can go out and clear Dungeons and Camps to obtain points!
Is this what the M.I.L.F System is? I have to have sex with mature women who are mothers? Who comes up with this?! That Red Guy said he created it, does that mean he was horny when he thought of it? What kind of ridiculous bullshit is he coming up with, that damned bastard!
I let out a sigh, "You got to be shitting me....." I said as I looked up to the top of the cliff, seeing that the sun was setting down, "Milfs...."
I noticed that the bottom of the ravine was beginning to be plunged in darkness, the sun no longer shining down on it. Nightfall was upon me and I had to do something about it. I couldn't stay here any longer.
"Okay, three gifts." I said as I looked at the screen, "Can I see them?"
The Screen shifted and switched over to an Inventory Tab.
I saw two objects:
[Red's Revolver]
[Necklace of High-Noon]
It then had another message right below the Items.
I clicked on both of them almost immediately, and two orbs of light appeared in front of the Screen. A large revolver manifested in the middle of the air and I instantly caught it as a necklace appeared shortly after.
As I caught the necklace, the Screen changed to see the Item's description.
[Necklace of High-Noon]
- Grants the "High-Noon" skill.
- Activating the skill bestows a Magical Bullet of any affinity that can be switched out at any time.
- Upon firing the bullet, the projectile will shoot directly at where it is aimed with dead-on precision, dealing considerable damage. Its base affinity is "Magic" and can be later switch out with any other affinity.
- The damage always depends on the level of strength of the current Six-Shooter being used. If Dual-Wielding, the ability only affects the dominant hand.
- Can only be activated once per Day.
I blinked, staring at the screen with a bit of surprise.
"What?" I said as I looked at the necklace, "That's quite....."
Without thinking, I put the necklace on. It was a leather necklace with a single circular metal tag on it with a faint red skull engraved on it.
"Hm...." I said, "This could be quite interesting..."
I looked at the Revolver, it was quite large and had some weight to it, unlike the one I used to shoot Lenny.
The mere thought of that gave me chills and I simply shook my head to ignore it. I then decided to open the chamber of the revolver and saw that it was loaded. There was one thing about this situation that bothered me; I had no other bullets.
Was there something else that I had to do?
I looked at the Screen to see if there was other tabs. I saw the "Skills" tab on the far side and clicked on it.
"Okay...." I said as I saw the Skill that I was given
{Red's Mark]
- Dash towards you target, swiping your hand and striking them.
- Upon striking, the target is Marked. The Mark leaves them susceptible to two things; (Aim-Assist) and (Critical Damage)
- (Aim-Assist) allows bullets or projectiles to bend towards the target should they be in a foot radius of the target.
- (Critical Damage) is double the Damage intended. The Mark will glow brightly as a visual cue.
This.....
"This is kinda crazy." I said, "What kind of Skill is this?"
That Red Guy really did give powerful abilities to help me. But the only downside is that I need bullets for my Revolver.
I checked the rest of the Skills and saw that there were none. My guess is that I could unlocked them. I noticed a specific message at the bottom that said something.
Upon reading that, I saw that the Screen switched yet again to the Mana page:
[Mana]
- Fuel for Magic.
- Every Starting Class Starts with 100mp.
- With more experience, you can (Feel) how much Mana you have. At the beginning, a small blue bar will appear in your field of vision.
- (Mana Regeneration) can be improved. By investing a single point in the (Mana's Grace) Skill, you can improve your (Mana Regeneration). You can only invest up to 4 points in the Skill.
This is basic and I suppose that I need to keep an eye on my Mana when using the Mark skill. But I didn't see the "Mana's Grace" skill. Not only that, is there any Stat thing I can check? Can I level that up?
Is that how it works?
And the whole MILF thing, what's up with that?
"Is there something I have to check when it comes to that?" I said as the Screen switched to a different page, "Oh....I guess the System is telling me...."
[M.I.L.F Tasks]
- Search any camp or dungeon to possibly unlock a Task
-
-
-
"Three Tasks are Locked...." I said, "Do I need to do something to unlock the description? And Aspects were mentioned. What's up with that?"
Yet again, the Screen switched.
[Aspects]
- Magical attributes that correspond to [Classes]
- Some Aspects are divided into Shards. (Samuel) will have to collect all corresponding Shards to obtain the Aspect.
- Aspects add more to the power of the [Classes] that can be combined to create a powerful synergy.
- Some Aspects can be fully obtained by completing MILF Tasks.
"Hm...." I said, "So these Aspects are different than Skills.....interesting...."
The Screen then disappeared, as if it was done with what it was meant to show me.
I looked down at the Revolver in my hand, "I see....." I said with a sigh, "I guess there's no choice then. This is like one of those brutal video games that just tosses me in there with no tutorial. What can I do to complain? This is it...this is happening.....this is real...."
I shuddered and I immediately shook my head to compose myself.
I saw that the other revolver was on the ground, close to Lenny's dead body. I walked over to it and picked it up, opening the chamber and seeing that there was still two bullets in there. I had used one to shoot him.
I looked over to the imploded carriage and decided to walk over to it, holstering Red's Revolver behind me through my pants. Luckily, there was a safety on it and I turned it on. I didn't want any accidents.
I had to see if there happened to be more bullets in there. Not just that, I needed supplies. I needed anything that could help me get out of here. I had no clue on where I was or what the hell I was supposed to do.
Fuck MILFs. That is all the instruction I was given.
I saw there was a sack on the side and I reached for it, opening it up and seeing that there was a small crystal egg in it. Not just that, there was a small leather pouch in it. I reached inside and took the pouch out, opening it. I saw a couple of small-caliber bullets that seemed to be for the small revolver.
"Hm...." I said as I rummaged through the sack and saw that there were just pieces of half-eaten bread and nothing else, "Shit....."
I then heard a groan, and I immediately jumped up in surprise.
I straightened up and walked to where I heard it, and leaning against a board from the carriage, I saw the bearded guy. His legs were broken, and he had a large splinter stuck in his stomach. Blood was coming out of his mouth as his eyes were half-closed.
He looked at me, "W-What the fuck happened....?"
I looked at him, "The Bird tossed us over into the Ravine." I told him, "Lenny is dead. The other one? I don't know."
"Fuck....." he said as he looked at me, "You fucking bastard. I don't know why we were stuck in this mess. That damned...that damned Sylvia.....she's gonna fucking kill you for this."
"I don't care. I don't even know who she is." I told him as I pointed the revolver at him, "I need you to answer a few things."
"What the fuck do you want?" He asked me
"Where are we?" I said
He spat blood on the ground, "We're...we're in the path that lead into the passageway towards Drahan." He said, "This ravine connects to it...."
"Drahan...." I said, "Is that another country?"
"Magical Human Kingdom." He managed, "But you don't wanna be in that passage, it's nothing but a shitshow. You're better off staying here in Rubrein."
"Where's the nearest Town or Settlement." I told him, "I need to get there as quickly as I can."
"Not that far." He said, "Around 10 miles to the East. But you won't get there alive....heehhehe...the Terror Birds will get you."
"There's more than one?" I asked
"Of course, there is." He said, "These things govern the land here.....they're death incarnate."
"Hm..." I said, "I'll take my chances."
"Make it quick." He said, "Shoot me in the head....."
I lowered the gun, "No." I said seriously, "You're dead anyways."
"That's why." He glared at me, "Kill me...."
I heard the distant sound of the Terror Bird clattering its beak, and I looked up to see its shadow peeking over the top of the ravine. I think it must have eaten the Horses by now, and it was now checking the side of the cliff.
"Kill me....." He said, "Those assholes will rip you apart while you're alive....."
I grabbed the sack and began to walk away, "Good luck to you." I said, "If you manage to survive this....."
"Come find me so I can actually kill you."
