  The instant Mikael bought the Advanced Physical System his body began to ge. All the cells of his body were evolving and beier ahier, he began to feel like he was drunk and had difficulty standing.

  Not only his body but his senses were also affected he had difficulty seeing the ground, and his hearing was also affected which caused him to have trouble staying on his feet.

  The good news is that u time it wasn’t painful but only unfortable. Mikael stayed in the same position for the 5 minutes before he began to feel better.

  ‘For me, this sensation was even worse than the pain that I ehe st time I unlocked my stats. At least with the pain, I had something to focus on but this time I was feeling like I was more drunk than anybody has ever been.’

  ‘In this state, I was totally powerless… I hate it!’

  Sigh

  ‘Let’s look at my stats’

  ‘Nice progress sihe st time, not really in STR, AGI, or END but I have unlocked the vitality and the perception stats and gained 2 new skills.’

  ‘That’s nice all that but now I want to go to sleep I’m just too tired. I’ve done 16 hours of training today so yeah.’

  Mikael climbed the stairs before being teleported into his apartment and sleeping for the night.

  The m Mikael awoke ‘Ahh I slept well..’ he thought while stretg.

  ‘Now I will go do some quest in the guild, wait a minute now that I thought about it it’s weird how the Aedris world is simir to Earth. I mean it’s airely different world so all things should be different but no. A lot of things are identical or at least simir like for example an inn, it means the same things iwo worlds!’

  ‘It doesn’t make sense if it was an Alternative world it would make sense because they are created by the imagination of the people from Earth but the Aedris world is a Unique world pletely uo Earth.’

  “System do you know why the Aedris world ah are alike?”

  [Military rank too low to ahis question.]

  ‘Really, a cssic you are too weak to know the bullshit answer?’

  ‘Never mind it wasn’t important I was just curious.’

  He then took the time to shower and do his m routine befoing back to the Aedris world.

  He appeared ba the inn where he ate breakfast befoing to the Hunter’s Guild.

  "The moment he arrived at the Hunter's Guild, he immediately began looking at the missions on the quest board."

  The missions were varied some were simple like gathering some herbs and some were harder like killing a bandit group. He focused on the monster exterminatios that are repeatable so that he could farm for xp and tributions points at the same time.

  A mission caught his attention, and the momeook the paper in his hand, he received a system notification.

  [Orc Extermination Mission

  Rank: bsp; RE(repeatable quest)

  Description: Orcs were spotted in the nearby Whitewood Forest. They are dangerous for nearby travelers, it’s why this quest was issued. They generally travel solo but they may travel in small groups. An orc is a k mo’s reeo try this mission in a group led by at least a k hunter and 2 D-rank hunters.

  Hunter Guild rewards: 1K tributions points per 5 orcs killed. he ears as proof of the kill.

  System rewards: 200 LP per 5 orcs killed.]

  [his quest was created by the Advanced Quest System and will therefive less LP than an optional world quest.]

  [Do you want to accept this quest?]

  [Yes    No]

  “System, I accept the quest.”

  [The quest will remain active until you plete it with the Hunter's Guild.]

  'The reason I took this quest is that the XP gain system works in such a way that it’s more effit to kill a small number of strong ehan a rge number of weak ones.'

  Mikael looked at the ter where the receptionist was and saw Ruby, the fox girl receptionist from yesterday.

  “Hello Miss, I would like tister this mission in my name” He spoke befivihe Orc extermination mission and his hunter card.

  Ruby was a little worried about his mission choid said “ You just became a D-rank hunter yesterday you shouldn’t take such a hard quest. The orcs are k mohat are generally strohan an average k hunter so if you take this quest it will be really dangerous.”

  “I know it will be hard but I thrive in hardship so don’t worry.”

  Ruby didn’t look vinced but still said “It’s your choice.”

  ‘Another newbie that takes a quest too hard for them… Why are they all dumb and want to throw their lives?? And he leasant ohat rare but no he wao throw his life! Over the years, I thought I would bee aced to the deaths of hunters, but I still don't like it.’

  Mikael saw that she wasn’t paying attention and called her “Excuse me yister the quest?”

  “Oh yeah sorry I was lost in my thoughts” she spoke before taking the quest paper and his hunter card, she did something with a kind of mae before saying “All good the mission is registered in your name for 7 days. You plete the mission at any time, the number of points you will gain will depend on the number of orcs killed.”

  After she finished speaking she gave him his hunter card bad spoke “I wish you a good hunt bye.”

  “Bye,” he spoke before leaving the building and going to a map store where he bought a map for the Whitewood Forest for 2 silver s which brought his total moo 1 gold, 8 silver, and 25 bronze s.

  He looked at the map and saw that Withewood Forest is 5 kilometers north of Onissa City. The map said that there are D-rank monsters in the forest, but retly orcs have been spotted, making it dangerous for anyone who isn't at least k.

  Thirty mier, he arrived at the edge of a beautiful forest with trees standing approximately 25 meters tall. Their height blocked most of the sunlight, casting a shadowy ambiance over the area, but this dark vibe was tradicted by the tree's white bark and vibrant green leaves. These trasting elements created a captivating atmosphere.

  Mikael was awestruck by the forest’s beauty, but he still entered with his sword drawn, staying on high alert. After all, he is hunting k monsters, so caution is essential.

  Ruffle

  He turned in the dire where he heard something move and saw a 2-meter tall muscur green-skinned humanoid with a loincloth around his waist but without a on.

  ‘100% that’s an orc’ he thought.

  The two locked eyes for a brief moment before the orc charged at him with a roar. Mikael quickly sidestepped, sshing the ord cutting it into its rib.

  Mikael backed away and saw that the cut he made wasn’t a serious one. ‘I gave all my strength to this ssh and it only made a light cut? This fight will be hard if the orc is this resistant, but at least it looks like I am faster.’

  The orc rushed at him again like a mad dog before throwing a punch, which he evaded by stig close to the ord moving behind him. He took the opportunity that the orc was destabilized by the missed punch to pierce him directly in the heart with his sword but because of his durability he didn’t fully pierce his heart.

  ‘No kill notificatiohought, surprised.

  The orc was in tremendous pain a an elbow blow behind him to elimihe source of his pain. Mikael was distracted, and couldn’t evade so he took the blow head-on a like he was hit by a truck! He was sent flying 3 meters before falling to the ground.

  Mikael was in pain but he got up fast because he khat he couldn’t afford to stay down. ‘Fuck what is this strength he sent me flying with a single punch! If I take a couple more blows like that I’m dead’ he thought while gravely looking at the monster.

  Mikael saw that the sword was still stu the ord thought ‘Fuck I don’t have a on against a clearly much stronger oppo. I only try to exhaust him he shouldn’t have lo with a pierced heart.’

  He approached the orc while waiting for an attack. The orc didn’t disappoint by ung the same punch ‘Same thing? It’s dumb’ Mikael thought while ung a low kick.

  The moment the kided Mikael felt like he just kicked a metal pte, the orc looked totally ued. Seeing this situation he instantly retreated with his superior speed.

  Mikael stayed 5 meters away from the orc, thinking, ‘My attacks are almost pletely useless. The best strategy I e up with is to keep evading his attacks and hope that his injuries will kill him. But if that doesn’t work, I’ll use my gun… I didn’t want to use it because firearms won’t be useful against stronger enemies, and I don’t want to rely on it too much.’

  During the 5 minutes, he kept evading the orc's attack before the orally fell to the ground and received the kill notification.

  [k orc killed 12K xp received]

  [Css: Martial Artist has leveled up X2]

  [Global level X2]

  [Because of the difficult fight, some of your skills have progressed.]

  [Unarmed Martial Arts Mastery +3%, Footwork Mastery +6%, 6th Sense +4%, Swordsmanship Mastery +10%]

  ‘Nice, I didn’t know that skill could gain proficy by fighting. But now that I think about it it makes seo bee better at using skills in a fight because that's where we are most tred.’

  “System it is possible to put the multiple notifications I receive in one big notification like for example at the pce of receiving [k orc killed 12K xp received] could receive [5 k orc killed 60K xp received]?”

  [Modification effected because of the possession of the System's Tools Upgrade.]

  “Ok thanks, but I have another query, when I reach level max for my css will the extra xp be lost?”

  [ra xp will be transferred to your css.]

  ‘The gain of this fight was it wasn’t a real success, I got hurt by the blow of the orc. At least I only have some pain in my ribs but nothing of broke so I tinue my hunt.’

  ‘What I could have doer?’

  ‘Hmm If I hadn't been distracted by the ck of kill notification I wouldn’t have been hit so I’ll o be more tred and cautious. Another problem was that when my sword was stu the chest of the orc I was incapable of hurting it, a solution could be to learn to dual wield sword a spare sword.’

  ‘Of course, if my sword were sharper or I were stronger, it would have helped too, but for now, there's nothing I do about it. I’ll just o be more cautious in my ort.’

  He then pulled his sword from the chest of the now-dead ord cut open its torso to retrieve the core—a small blue sphere that held the greatest bes for body refining in a monster’s entire body. This is why, when time allows, hunters harvest the whole body of a monster. But if they ck time or ste space, they just take the core. Afterward, he also cut off the orc's ears and pced them in his backpack.
