Omni-Mastery

Orcs, an extinct species that is of the same lineage as goblins and ogres, the green blood race, it wasn\'t a strange occurrence for such extinct species to appear, in fact it was a normal thing to find disappearing species or even new species in gates, as their reason for extinction was mostly due to corruption…..

However, the strange thing here was that why did such species which at least have the strength of a lv.35 appear in a gate that was supposed to cap at this level. At this point, there was no chance that this occurring twice and in even more exaggerated sense this time to these certain gates, not to mention the appearance of the corruption crystals.

From this point of view, whether these gates being chosen for the starry night party was just a display of enmity from a highly authorized person or just a grudge holding schemer of sorts, the person behind the actual allocation might be more dangerous than expected….

This had already evolved from a danger directed at a certain city or family, these crystals and monsters that are more dangerous than calculated could potentially be a danger that might affect the fate of humanity as a whole.

Though this was actually just a game and my true goal was my own survival, However, with how realistic this game was, humanity and even the monster race falling would probably cause the whole domain to collapse. Considering that this was just a seed in the bigger scheme of things, plucking it would probably thwart the plan by a few steps at the very least!

Thus, and after thinking about it cautiously and thinking about my current powers, there was no reason for me to cower away from this task! After all, plucking the seeds were the easiest and the fastest way to stop or at least slow the progress of this unknown plan.

Pluck the seeds! Pluck the seeds!

In this way, won\'t I be (unbeknownst to others) a small time hero who slowed down a plan initiated by the forces of corruption?

Every small child would usually have the fantasy of being a hero and saving the world, while I, of course, could only let these thoughts cross my mind before being abandoned at once, as I already realized my situation by the time I was at that age…

But here I was, stumbling at a plan driven by evil waiting for me to thwart it….

\'Hahaha\'

I couldn\'t stop myself from laughing out loud garnering the attention of the orcs who were focusing on their mining work, who raised the axes before pointing them at me erupting with hideous war cries.

"Keuuhhkk"

"Krauhhhha"

"Kreukkhh"

The slight split second that I just had thoughts of being a hero was too funny for me as I continued to laugh while reading my sword to intercept the attacks of the orcs.

"Transform - Greatsword form"

Here I was, in a game where monsters existed and danger was lurking from all sides, and any slight mistake would result in me dying for real, and I was having such pipe dream fantasy?

My own priority was my survival, satisfying my curiosity of this world and saving the world or slowing its destruction only came after that.

"Krahh!...."

However, if the only way to survive was by becoming such a hero….

Might that be a hero in the shadow or whatever…...
