Chapter Ten: Satisfying Rewards
Ouch... Why does my body keep hurting me? Why do I keep passing out? It's too much...Javier staggered to his feet, his muscles trembling under the weight of exhaustion. His lungs still burned from inhaling the Blackstone Powder, and every joint ached as if he had been dragged across solid rock. Yet, despite the pain, a sense of power coursed through him—a stark reminder that he had survived what should have been a fatal encounter.Blake Johnson... he thought within himself. What a formidable opponent you've been. I almost lost my life fighting you...Then the familiar red holographic screen appeared before his eyes:[RENEGADE SYSTEM ONLINE...]>LEVEL UP DETECTED>CURRENT LEVEL: 2>STAT POINTS AWARDED: 5>EXP: 0/10>HP RESTORED TO MAX>SP RESTORED TO MAX[NEW SKILL ACQUIRED]>SWORDPLAY, LV1 (PASSIVE)Your wielding of blades is seamless.

[WARNING!] >YOU HAVE INHALED A TOXIN! NAME: BLACKSTONE POWDER DESCRIPTION: >A powder with acidic properties which can destroy visceral organs within three minutes once inhaled. >It is very effective against every class of level one Raiders. >Only those with healing abilities can survive inhaling the Blackstone Powder. 'Blood of Donald...' Javier continued to cough violently as he shut his eyes tightly, refusing to open them. His hands still moved to cover his ears despite his entire body going limp. Although he was in a precaurious ordeal he still remembered he had to protect his weak points. And even when he felt like coughing out his lungs Javier still didn't let go of his ears or open his eyes. Instead he curled himself into a ball and rolled over so that he was facing down. His will to survive was greater than the agonizing pain he was feeling right now. Blake snickered when he saw this, "Doing that won't help you, Javier." He slowly walked towards Javier, his left han
Chapter eight: Hunter Meets Prey
Javier was still battling with the sudden memory sync when Blake's longsword connected with his neck in a flash. A dull pain instantly registered itself in Javier's mind, jolting him out of the mental pain he was currently experiencing.Blake had expected to completely sever off Javier's head, leaving nothing but an empty neck with blood splashing out. But instead of that happening his sword bounced back, causing the hand which was gripping it to ache.'What in the world—' Blake was very shocked, his eyes bulging out of their sockets as he stared at Javier in shock. This man was supposed to be an ordinary thief! How then was he able to suddenly become impervious to his slash?!Javier who had been jolted out of his thoughts immediately narrowed his eyes which flashed with fury. Now that he had received a memory from the Renegade System about this socalled Blake Johnson, he became hellbent on killing the man.From the memory glimpse he had just now and what the Raider had just said, it

And now that he had fully recovered his stamina he was ready to go.'Yes,' he immediately accepted to upgrade the Steel Skin skill. Although it had enhanced his skin, making it as tough as still it was still lagging.For example the Steel Sabertooth had been able to damage his skin with the ferocious assault of its steel claws. This meant that his skin could still be damaged albeit the skill could reduce damage done to him.[UPGRADING STEEL SKIN]×3 STEEL SABERTOOTH QUINTESSENCE CORES HAVE BEEN INFUSED INTO STEEL SKIN>SKILL NAME: STEEL SKIN>SKILL LEVEL: 1>SKILL DESCRIPTION:Reinforces skin with steel-like fibre+15% Damage resistance+10% Piercing resistanceReduces stagger chance from blunt attacksSTATUS: EVOLVINGAt that moment Jav

He had spent eight hours without the slightest inkling on how to get to the nearest human settlement as quick as possible.'If I had a map everything would have been better,' Javier thought within himself. 'I mean, I've seen several protagonists with maps to help them...''You can't eat your cake and have it back,' he immediately reprimanded himself. The Renegade System had done so much for him, yet he was still here complaining.The thing was this was a habitual tantrum on his own part. It was something he could not do without no matter where he was. He would always complain about his circumstance or status.As someone who came from a poor fam
Chapter five: Steel Skin
Javier continued down the mountain path, making his way through jagged rocks which protruded upwards like monstrous spikes. One misstep and he would be sent tumbling down, splattering himself over one of these rocks which were densely packed.'I wonder how the previous settlers of this place managed to continue living her,' Javier thought within himself. 'For them to move to and fro mountain must be a very herculean task.While descending the mountain he decided to check his player stats once more. Back then he didn't have the chance to check it because everything had been very confusing. Now that his mind had regained clarity this would be the best time to check it.Taking a deep breath he imagined the stat interface displaying before him. Although he had done this before it still felt very strange to him—and he was also doubtful. It was only after the familiar red holographic screen appeared in front of him that he calmed down.[RENEGADE SYSTEM ONLINE...][STATS]>STRENGTH (STR): 3+
