Chapter 44 – Phantasia real aim.
"Shit! Mercy! I won't tell anybody about- "Before the man could finish speaking, he was shot right in the forehead with a crossbow bolt before dropping dead.
(Shit.)
(If I didn't cleaned up somewhat, that guy would have escaped before I noticed and would have alarmed others.) – though Phantasia.
(I should have expected for the things like merchant to visit this place or something.)
(Still, I kept my guard just in case.)
(….)
(But some people will realize that something is off if he went missing, like his client or a boss.)
"It doesn't matter."
"The preparation have been completed."
Behind Phantasia, there was huge group of chimera monsters that were ready for combat.
"…."
"This merchant body looks no good, but his horse corpse will be an interesting." – said Phantasia before collecting the horse corpse.
After collecting the horse corpse, Phantasia summoned his own horse and quickly got on it.
"Well then."
"Everybody! Fallow me!"
The time was up.
The necessary chimeras have been created.
However, according to that merchant I killed recently, he said that the neighboring village who they are good friends with ended up worrying about this village since they haven't heard anything from them for some time.
Well, it really doesn't bother me.
Why?
Well because their village was my second target in the first place!
I and the fast moving chimeras went ahead and ran towards the second village.
This time I had way more chimeras. I obviously can't store that many chimeras, so they are outside all. Bit risky approach, but I don't need to worry since players don't take this route.
Well, there is one thing I need to worry though.
The first attack started long time ago and people are realizing that something must have happened.
I finished the preparation in time and I need to attack before a proper investigation is send.
The first one to notice was the neighboring village, but its not the problem since they were my second target anyway.
Me and chimera quickly made our way towards the second village.
They did saw us coming from afar, but it was too late. The fast moving chimeras and me on my horse got to them before they could even try to escape, making the raid start almost instantly.
I did heard from the villagers that this village is small, but it was way smaller than I though. Dealing with that entire village and killing everybody there didn't honestly took long.
The second village has been destroyed as planned.
[Title: NPC killer tier 4 has reached tier 6] – [E] -> [D]
[+10 stat points] – [Killed 100 NPCs]
[+25 stat points] – [Killed 150 NPCs]
[Title: Evil – Tier 4 has reached tier 5]
[+ 2 class points]
The second village has been destroyed successfully without letting anybody escape.
I didn't get any new titles; however, 2 growth type titles did ranked up….
Fuck me.
The title [Destroyer Village] and [Settlement Destroyer] didn't ranked up.
I can kind of guess why.
Both of the villages were quite small, too small, they were very small. The second one was especially small.
So, I can kind of understand why I didn't managed to rank up those titles. I may or may not get them after destroying the third village. I honestly wouldn't be surprised if I didn't got it at this point.
There is a [NPC Murder] didn't ranked up.
This title grows if I kill NPCs without dying in between. A streak or something you could say.
So, why it didn't worked?
Well, I died.
I died when I was hunting in danger forest.
So, yea, the streak got broken.
However, there is another problem.
It may seem like I'm getting a lot of titles right now, but I'm not unfortunately. I mean like I'm not getting enough points.
The E rank titles could be easily obtained and the D rank titles required bit of challenge, but C rank titles…. Oh boy. They are problematic.
Getting D or E rank titles right now kind of means nothing unless I get a lot of them.
There are growth type titles, however the required to grow them each new time is getting higher and higher.
So, the rate of acquiring titles got extremely slowed down after I left the beginner city.
I have grow titles, the titles that can keep ranking up and evolving, but it takes both time and effort.
Ranking them up at the start may seem easy, but the more you do it, the harder it gets, meaning you are getting less power and can only get more by putting even more efforts.
Grow titles are good. Don't take me wrong. But to make them really shine you need to develop them and all.
Some titles provide higher rewards as they evolve, but there is also different type titles that is just simple title that doesn't have ability to grow.
It may seem like the non-grow titles are inferior, but that is not the case.
For example.
[E rank grow title can give you 5 stat points per rank.]
[E rank non grow title can give you 30 or even 50 stat points from get go.]
It works like that.
Not only that, but titles that give you more points have even bigger requirements. But the more you grow your title, the higher reward is.
For example, my title [NPC Killer].
The number of NPCs I need to kill to rank it up got bigger, but the bonus got…... Well, the bonus only got bit bigger, so honestly the version where you needed to just kill 25 NPCs was way better…... Yea…. Fuck.
Well, not all grow titles are that bad like this one, for example [Craft] given me 5 class points, then 10, then 25 after crafting rare rarity item…... Well, it did required a lot of time and re
"Anyway." – said Phantasia while taking out the map from his inventory.
(All 3 villages that were on my path had been dealt with.)
(I got way less titles than I thought, but I did secured good amount of points.)
(I used every single point I got into the [Necro Mastery] and began increasing my number of chimeras.)
(The first, second and third villages were only build up and I knew that they would be not enough for me…. Well, I did hoped for the better titles and more, but still I did…. Never mind.)
(There are three reason why I chose these 4 villages specifically.)
(The first are the titles I could get by destroying them.)
(The second was for the human type materials in order to create more chimeras.)
(The third was an safe route, since players don't take this route since it will just waste their time.)
"The first village is located quiet far away from the city I came from."
"The second village who was their neighbors was bit away."
"But the third village was extremely far away from the second village."
"In short, I ended up traveling quiet a distance."
"But there was reason for all this!"
"The reason why I took this route was to stay hidden and go around so nobody would know!" – said Phantasia while smiling malicious at the map.
THE NEXT TARGET.
"The only place where people go after leaving the starting area!"
"The town called Wild!"
