The glow of the box in front of me gave the exact same feeling of excitement. My eyes became wide at the exact moment i realised that there was another glowing box just drawing me closer and closer with each second i took to arrive.
The fatigue from the blaze that i caused earlier made it considerably harder to wait because of the glow being just that more enticing.
Tge look in my eyes being comparable to that of Jake when he saw the box for the first time but the fact remained the same. A legendary weapon was beconing right in front of my motionless body.
With my fatigue being releived slowly but surely with time. It was only expected that the legendary weapon would be worth the time i spent staring at it. My eyes fixated on it with no break in eye contact for the entire time i spent watching it paralysed.
Never had i ever felt more happy in my entire life when i could finally go over to the box and open it. I made sure to take my time in my walk to the box. Each step cementing my ownership of the weapon that would most probably be at the helm of all my attacks for a very, very long time.
When i finally arrived at the box, I opened the box only to find once again the weapon of a lifetime, this time being a book.
"These gods sure have a way of being creative with the legendary items they have been giving us lately." I said to myself. A book? Like what would an ex murderer do with a book.
Then i realised just how the system worked. The weapons that players find are probably most suited to their traits. So I opened the book and realised that it was a book that had instructions on how to improve ones power.
I read out one of the sentences out loud trying to make sence of then information then out of nowhere my body begins to increase temperature exponentially.
After a while i realised that reading out words wouldnt be the only way i could increase my bodies temperature for my flames to actually ignite. Any feeling of danger or anger could manifest that same power, hence why the power came without me saying anything when i was fighting a horde of undead creatures.
The thoughts in my head could make my body manifest a fire power. I heard the goddess of life explain the entire system of this entire world but not once did i ever hear about any powers.
These powers were not tethered to your class or past life experiences which explains why the first time i opened the box i found a spear instead of a gun.
The flame form, although very powerful. It proved to be very taxing physically as i would get a very deer drawback if i used it in battle recklessly.
That is why i decieded it would be more beneficial for me if i could train it but keep it under wraps until it was needed. This meant only if it was a very desparate last resort kind of decision would be when i would use it.
With all this equipment in my arsenal, i decieded to adventure through and hooefully find some areas with bosses that i could fight. This at the time seemed like routine, but as a one man opperation, I didnt know how successful this endevor would be as there would be no back up, just me and the boss.
After walking around I saw the first of many donegeons that i would find on this expedition. With the anxiety of the fact that i am a solitary man in this raid and that i could loose my life in this raid building I entered and.
For the first time i went into a donegeon alone.
The donegeon was your usuall run of the mill donegeon. Monsters that are mildly dangerous supporting the bosses guard, then the boss.
The monsters were easy to get through. My LW3 Tundra being put to use from distance before they could ambush me and the guard wasnt much work. Then the boss, who lets just say gave me a run for my money.
I aimed from my pearched spot, aproximately 45 meters away from the boss just in case hand to hand combat wasnt viable. I focused on my target, inhaled the dusty air of the donegeon, coughed for good measure and took the shot.
The bullet moved faster that sound itself, rocketing towards the boss, a common boss that usually gives low coin payouts.
The bullet moved with purpose speeding toward the boss like a race car at peak performance bursting towards the bosses face.
Then when it was just about to colide with tge boss. It blocked the shot.
"What, that gremlin blocked my shot? Since when was that possible?"I thought to myself, pure horror plastered on my face as the boss turned slightly towards the left to face me.
"I think its over."
