All Novel Full 9 Daddy got his first quest
“Hmm…. My first goal is to get the Elixir of Dragon Heart. If I remember it correctly, I put that elixir inside a hidden chamber of a Flood Dragon Dungeon. If I get my hands on that Elixir, I would be able to eliminate potential weaknesses of my class.”
“By the way, I wonder how the status panel is. They shouldn’t have changed it, right?”
“Status!” Brian mumbled while standing in front of the village and calls out for his status. With his call, a blue panel with black words appears in front of him.

“Alright! Nothing seems to have changed. Glad to know it. Anyway, Open Warlock Status!” Brian breathed a sigh of relief and called out for Warlock Status.

“If it was really on my hands, I would’ve eliminated all of those weaknesses. Unfortunately, UMA can’t allow such things. Anyway, if I get my hands on Elixir of Dragon Heart, I can remove all of those weaknesses except for lifespan.”
“First, let’s move inside and find some quests.”
Brian quickly dismissed the status and walked towards the village. He was wearing a plain brown shirt and pants. He had no weapons in his hand or inventory. And, he had no money either. So, the first thing he must do is to get the quest.
And, as a creator, it wouldn’t be hard. He walked inside and found some NPCs around the village. Just like the goddess he created, everyone else was created to be basic but because of the Zero-Point Energy used to create this virtual world, they can evolve on their own.
Humans can’t absorb Zero-Point Energy without any source like bloodlines. So, they developed New Gods to create virtual beings who can absorb Zero-Point Energy and transform it into different sources of power commonly known as Supernatural abilities and transfer it to real humans.
Humans aren’t god. They are just using everything in their arsenals to create a better future.
Brian walked up to an old man sitting on the bench while watching over the cattle. Upon reaching near him, Brian spoke “Sir, I heard about your son in the Forest. I am here to inform you that your son is alive.”
“What?” The old man jumped up from his bench with shock all over his place. His action cared for the cattle as they moved away.
“Is that true?” The old man held his shoulders and asked with tears coming down his eyes.
“Yes, but I need you to give me permission to bring back your son. He is still alive.” Brian nodded his head and answered. Among many other NPCs, some NPC had quests that they can’t reveal by themselves. Players need to find it, one way or another.
For Brian, this direct way was easier but if someone could help the old man, he would get quest by the system. Though, there is one problem. The rewards are quite low.
“Please! Please, bring back my child!”
[Quest Received]
[Quest- Bring back the Old Man’s child
Description- Child is currently living within the cave of Poison Spider. Defeat the Poison Spider and bring the child back.
Condition- Child can’t die
Reward- 50XP, 5 God’s Coins, and Shadow Escape Skill]
‘Nice! Although XP and Coins are less, I can get a skill by completing this quest. As for XP, I can get enough by aimlessly killing monsters in the forest. What I needed was an actual skill to increase my strength.’
‘But, poison spider is going to be trouble, especially with my class. I need to be careful.’
“Don’t worry, Sir! I will bring back your son very soon.”
Finally, Brian left the village. He had remembered the layout of this village in his mind. So, he immediately reached the forest in just ten minutes. As a normal human, this was his best running speed. He could buy a map from the menu but he had no money.
And, the forest was only one mile away. But he quickly realizes that he was getting tired. Running was one thing, stamina was something he needs to take care of. So, he rested on the edge of the forest for ten minutes and finally moved inside the village.
The cave of the spider was located in the south. It was filled with small poisonous spiders. He didn’t plan to outright go there. Instead, he walked near the middle where normal boars live. The forest is designed for different difficulties.
For beginners, the middle section was great because one can find one boar in a certain area instead of a group. But, in the west, a player will find a pack of wolves. Although the strength of wolves won’t be that high, it would still be harder to defeat them.
Brian was trying to look out for players as well. He didn’t want anyone else to get his loot. The one who deals the final blow will get the reward unless it is a team battle. So, he can’t let anyone steal his kill. After reaching a certain distance, he spotted a boar at a distance.
The boar was moving near the tree and it was completely unaware of Brian’s presence. But, Boar is agile. So, he can’t miss his opportunity. He slowly moves behind the tree and starts closing the distance by moving from the sides.
Fortunately, there were many trees so he was quite hidden, and with proper sneaking, he wasn’t discovered as well. He could use the Cursed Hands for a powerful attack but this will also have a side effect.
So, unless he gets Elixir of Dragon Heart, he will try to use Cursed Hands as less as he can. Upon reaching nearly a meter close to the boar, just behind the tree, he picks up a small rock nearby and throws it behind the boar.
Bang!
“Gaw!” Thud! Bang! Thud!
As soon as the rock hits the ground, the boar jumped out of fright and moved straight but at this moment, it didn’t notice a kick coming from the side. Brian kicked it on its stomach as it rolled on the ground. Brian chased him and kicked again.
Finally, he stomped his foot on the ground and pounced on the boar. His right leg bents and his knees struck his head until it collided with the tree and the blood spilled out of its head.
[You killed Lv.1 Boar]
[You received 5XP]
[You received boar meat]
In front of him, the boar turns into small particles and disappears. At the same time, a chunk of boar’s meat appears in his inventory. After killing the boar, he moves towards the next boar.
Once the boar dies, it takes an entire day to get resurrected. This is to prevent players from killing the same monster.
After leaving this place, he quickly finds another boar. Unlike the previous boar, this boar was bigger which represented its level as well. But, instead of running away, Brian chooses to fight it. Just like before, he sneaks on the boar but this time, he knows he can’t use just brute strength to damage it.
So, he decides to use magic. Warlock doesn’t have weapons but their magic is the weapon itself. Although he can’t use Cursed Hands, he can still use magic which gives him immense control over his mana. But since he doesn’t have a skill, he can’t generate elemental powers or some other powers.
Mana is attributeless and unless someone like him tries to cheat, one needs the skill to use mana properly. But, Warlock has a major advantage with Magic Stat. They can use the mana for boosting their strength, and agility and even change the mana’s shape as they like.
Upon sneaking on the boar, he releases his mana, using three MP at once. His stats instantly got boosted for a short period of time. So, just like before, he distracts the boar with a rock and kicks it. Then, he continues to slam the boar with his knees and fist.
Unlike before, he had to attack more than once and it had to be precise as well. But, after ten consecutive attacks, he finally kills the boar.
[You killed Lv.2 Boar]
[You received 10XP]
ɴ(O)ᴠᴇʟ [You received boar meat]
[You received boar bone]
Seeing the last notification in front of him, he smiled and opened his inventory. In front of him, a panel with lots of slots appeared. But, only two slots had something on them. He clicks on the second slot and a new panel appears.
[Item- Boar Bone
Description- A strong bone of lv.2 boar which can be used to make weapons.
Effect: +2 STR (Wears off if not used)]
“Nice! Let’s go hunting some more boars.” Taking out a boar bone in his hand, he smirked and closed his inventory, finally leaving this spot.
