THE REALM OF MYTH AND LEGEND
status
Welcome to the Realm of Myths and Legends, please wait a moment as we produce your character.
"According to the manual I read during the 12-hour wait, the system scans your body and then produces a character based on its properties. So, someone who has practiced well in real life will have a great advantage over someone who has not. Fortunately I had the chance to develop a Heavenly Golden Body physique. Although it hasn't been perfectly mastered yet, it's more than enough to give me an edge. "
Izroth thought to himself as the game completed its character creation. His character looks exactly like Izroth, yes Jin but since they are the same person now he doesn't want to bother trying to constantly differentiate them. You can customize some characters, but cannot change gender or appearance drastically, this is due to gaming concerns about player safety and fraud.
Beep Beep! Character creation complete, select your class. RML has many special and hidden classes, but the starting classes are limited. But don't think for a second that choice isn't important. After all, it determines what role your character will play in a party, be it for dungeons or raids. Izroth knew all this because of the memories he absorbed.
Izroth did not hesitate and chose the Combat Master class. There are 9 different classes to start in RML: Warrior, Rogue, Mage, Cleric, Summoner, Shaman, Ranger, Fighter and Combat Master. These classes branch out into a number of different or hidden classes. The Combat Master Class was favored by many people due to its strict requirements. Beta testers say that it is an impossible class to play and very difficult to do anything for one reason: it requires you to find your own skills!
This may sound easy, but you have to find logical moves that AI accepts and records as skills, and if you find some half-baked moves then you will end up with a trash class. It got a lot of bad feedback from beta testers because the skills from that class would never pass a D level skill. Skills are ranked based on grades in RML from strongest to weakest SSS, SS, S, A, B, C, D, E, F. One should have dreamed of obtaining an A rank skill, not a C rank skill!
So anyone who became a Combat Master would most likely become useless in the group. It spread quickly among the gaming community as everyone glued to the advice of beta testers trying to gain a bit of profit from the others in the race to become the strongest player or guild. In fact, some large guilds and gaming clubs forbade their members to become Combat Masters!
But what others consider impossible and trashy, Izroth sees unlimited potential.
"If I can recreate the heavenly law of the Boundless Emperor Perfection here ..." Izroth had already started thinking about all the possibilities available to him. As he thought, a ding sound rang out.
Character creation completed ... Produce Statistics ...
Ding! Since your Constitution is strong, you have been given an HP boost!
Ding! Since your HP cannot exceed the initial parameters of the game, it is limited to a maximum of 100!
Ding! Since your Constitution far exceeds the initial parameters, the parameters for your character have been improved!
Ding! Since your Physical Strength is strong, you have been given an Attack Boost!
Ding! Since your Attack cannot exceed the initial parameters of the game, it is limited to a maximum of 20!
Ding! Since your Physical Strength far exceeds the initial parameters, the parameters of your character have been improved!
Ding! Because it's...
The warning from the system met Izroth's view, making him a little dizzy from trying to follow it. In the end, the character came out like this:
Name: Izroth
EXP: 0/100
Level: 1 (Stat Points: 0)
Title: There Is None
Grade: Combat Master
HP (Hit Points): 200/200
Energy: 100
ATK (Attack ):40
DEFENSE (DEF): 20
AGILITY (AGI): 20
MAGIC (MAG): 0
Equipped Gear:
Nonexistent
Skills: (Skill Points: 0)
Breaker of Limits (Passive) Level: MAXED (S Rank)
Inventory: (Gold: 0 Silver: 0 Bronze: 50) Fame
Blank
:
World's Fame: 0
If anyone were to look at these stats, even the game developers, their eyes would be out of their sockets! This statistic should not even exist at level 1! Parameters were set so that even if one exceeded the limits, it would stop them until they were more advanced in levels. But, Izroth is so far beyond the limit that the game makes an exception and breaks those parameters to give him a special extra and passive boost! He might be the only and the first player in the world to even gain the skill!
"Border Destroyer? Passive skills that allow me to surpass my limits. I did not expect such a benefit after only cultivating the Heavenly Golden Body for a few hours. It's a pity that I was unable to develop the Empty Emptiness Perfection Technique Without Borders. .. Or I might have ruined the game. "
Izroth laughed, but it was filled with excitement as the power he felt flowed throughout his body. Even though it is just a video game, it is completely immersive and one will feel as if it is no different from reality itself!
Izroth's vision turned completely white before seeing the entire seemingly endless world, the RML world. Great mountains, endless ravines, enormous forests, enormous deserts, all kinds of monsters and beasts! This is a small cutscene to give players a sense of RML breadth!
When Izroth opened his eyes once again he was in a small village, it was the early village where all players began to be known as Opal City. It was a pleasant little village located in a relatively safe zone. Izroth looks around, the game interface helps him to navigate more smoothly as he uses minimap to follow beginner tutorial searches. Some players had already escaped and started trying to fight monsters with their bare hands and were slaughtered.
Izroth looked at this scene and shook his head, those players clearly did not bother to read any guides or manuals. It is obvious that it is almost impossible to defeat a monster or beast without first obtaining your grade weapon. That is unless you are in the same situation as Izroth who has a great status increase or someone who is highly skilled. But someone highly skilled would not necessarily complicate themselves intentionally, or Izroth would also directly fight monsters.
Shortly after, Izroth arrived in front of a small shanty building. Although Opal City was a small village, it was only small when considering the entire world of RML. But, when compared to something on Earth, it would be the size of a small country!
Izroth stepped into the building and inside was an old man sitting leaning against the wall snoring with an empty bottle in his hand asleep. It was obvious that this man was a drunkard, but the tutorial started here with certainty, Izroth knew this because the system would not have guided him here otherwise.
"Hello, I'm Izroth a Combat Master. I've come to ask for your guidance, esteemed elder." Izroth is very respectful. After all, he never attempted to make enemies but never feared those who wanted to bully or offend him.
The old man's snoring suddenly stopped as his eyes slowly opened, "Honored Elder ...?" the old man laughed. "I've been called many things before, but that one was the first .." the old man stood up with a slight wavering constantly looking like he was about to fall. He moved the flask to his lips for a drink before realizing that it was empty and threw it away. He then pulled another flask from his inner coat pocket and started drinking. While doing so, he took the time to measure Izroth.
"The path of a Combat Master is not for the light-hearted, it is only for those with the right will and will ... Are you sure this is the path you want to choose ..?" for a moment the old man seemed to be releasing a powerful and pressing aura to test Izroth.
"As I expected, he's not just a drunk old man .." thought Izroth inwardly as he felt that oppressive aura, though it didn't affect him, it could make those with low wills tremble in fear and flee. Without hesitation, Izroth made a decision.
"I'm sure this is the way. A determination? Will? If I say that I am second best in having those traits then no one would dare say that they are first!" Izroth's eyes showed an expression of unwavering desire.
The old man was slightly startled for a moment before suddenly laughing out loud, "Hahaha! Goody! Goody! It has been a long time since I was actually a bit excited! Since you are sure then I will give you the quest, it is simple Really. Just bring up your own skills that are at least C-ranked, and you can become an official Combat Master. "the old man took another drink from his flask but kept an eye on Izroth to see his reaction.
Izroth is honestly impressed with the AI function of this game, they are similar to life dolls in his world but there is always a feeling of no life from it. However, it would be hard to believe that they are not actually talking to real people in this game! Although this may be a small problem ... At least a C rank skill and he had to make it from scratch! No wonder if players say this class is rubbish, most players cannot make the skill pass the D rank, but the tutorial for the class to get the weapon makes it so you have to make the skill a minimum C rank!
Izroth was deep in thought, he wasn't sure if there were any cultivation techniques he knew would work here. After all, this world was much different from his own and this was also a video game. He closed his eyes concentrating for a moment, but slowly opened his eyes and looked towards the old man who had again bowed to the wall with the flask in his hand.
"I see, thank you for your guidance" Izroth cupped his fists toward the old man before leaving the shabby little building to try something.
"Although I don't know if it will work, I won't know for sure until I try ..!" Izroth thought to himself while looking for a good secluded area, even though it was quite difficult with the number of players running around.
"I have to trace my memories to find a suitable technique to learn. If it's something too weak I won't be able to advance any further, but if it's something too deep, it probably won't work at all." Izroth took the time to sort through his memories before finally realizing.
"of course! Why didn't I think about it earlier! It must be the heavenly law, the Three Swords
Terrible "Izroth took a deep breath before concentrating to recall the movements of the Three Terrible Swords. It was a powerful sword technique that he learned in the early years of his cultivation. Three Baneful Swords, one sword to destroy, two swords to kill and three swords to annihilate! It was a dominating heavenly law!
"The question is still left, can I make it without using a sword?"
Time seemed to slow down for Izroth as he was completely immersed in his technique. Some players passed by and looked at him strangely, thinking he was behind or maybe AFK. Some even thought he was just a freak who might just do that to try and trap people. But all these people were ignored by Izroth because he only had one thing on his mind, his sword.
Game play time flows at a ratio of 10:1, so for every 10 hours in the game world, only 1 hour in the real world. Izroth had spent 5 hours immersed in his sword until finally, a warning sounded.
Ding! Congratulations, Izroth players have created a new skill! Please mention his skills!
Izroth gasped from his trance from the warning sound, this is what he was waiting for!
"Successful...!" a wide smile appeared on his face, it seemed like gamer Jin's heart was fusing well with Izroth, he was actually very excited about this!
"Note the First Baneful Sword: Destruction skill" Izroth said he didn't even have to think of his name.
Awakening skills ... It's finished!

System Messages: Do you want to announce your name to the world ?
Izroth thought about it for a moment but decided not to. After all, this is not the right time to do it. He had to wait until he had a firmer footing in this world before revealing himself.
"No, don't announce my name"
Ding! World Announcement: XXXX players have created the first skill, A rank! They have been awarded ...
As soon as the announcement came out, players were in a frenzy trying to figure out who could already create their own skills! The game hasn't even been out for 1 hour in real time, that's crazy! Maybe it's some famous pro players from big guilds or beta testers, but that doesn't make sense, usually big guilds like free promotions whenever they can and it would be the perfect opportunity!
While everyone was trying to figure out the identity of the outstanding player who created the first skill, Izroth had returned to the seedy old building. The old man was still in the same place, but when Izroth entered, he seemed fully aware.
"Honorably, I have completed the task. Let's see."
Izroth made a very simple move with his hands, but this movement was filled with a sharp destructive energy that seemed like it would devour anything that blocked his path! Izroth used the 'First Baneful Sword: Destruction' technique without a sword!
The old man's eyes widened as he became serious and quickly stood up in shock. That is an A rank skill! It was extremely hard to come by, yet this young man had not even left for half a day and had already produced such an incredible technique himself. How could the old man not be surprised ?!
"Is this enough as a pass tutorial?" Izroth said with a smile on his face, of course, he knew it was more than enough to pass the tutorial. After all, the old man had only asked for a C rank skill but he had instead made an outstanding A rank skill! Even if he could not graduate with it then the Combat Master would really be a joke.
"Yes ... Yep! Of course, that's enough!" The old man looked excited as if he was a little kid going to an amusement park for the first time.
"Haha! Just incredible! Talent like that! I haven't seen your talent in a long time, young man! Come on, you must choose a weapon! I also have something else to reward you for your ability" the old man did not even hold a flask in his hand as he was very happy with the situation. He took Izroth to the back room in the small building.
Izroth thought it would be narrow but it was actually quite spacious, much wider than it looked from the outside.
"My name is Gear. I used to be an adventurer in my first days, now I just spend my days here passing day by day. I never believed that I would succeed in meeting a genius within me. The lifetime of "Gear let out a small sigh that seemed to be filled with the feeling of accepting his destiny and many other unknown emotions.
Previously Izroth was a rack containing different types of weapons. Gloves, swords, daggers, hammers, axes, clubs, sticks, sticks, spears; you name it and it's there. Of course, due to the potential variations of the Combat Master class, it should have a large selection of weapons available.
A weapon instantly caught the attention of Izroth the moment it was seen.
"That's ..."
