Chapter 62 Basic Quest Rewards
Chapter 62 Basic Quest Rewards
Ian looked at Sylvia's figure that disappeared in front of him along with the void crack, feeling emotional.
"I need to get stronger, fast."
It had been a month since he transmigrated into this world of novels, and so many things had happened one after another, making him feel overwhelmed.
'Just getting started as a Wizard has changed everything.'
He noticed that the true fork of his destiny was when he decided to risk it by going to Ashen Sanctum and becoming a Wizard apprentice as soon as possible.
Then, as if floodgates had opened, mysteries and secrets began to bombard him one after another, making him look like a fool.
You know, as far as Arcane Passage was concerned, he was a passerby villain that should be forgotten in a chapter. Then, why was what he had been experiencing so far so bizarre?
'It is as if someone blocked the destiny that should belong to me.'
'As if.... I'm a discarded pawn!'
Ian analyzed. From the bloodline to the sealed meditation method he learned, he was sure that they were top-notch in this world.
Just the cocoon as the initial visualization object of meditation explained the extraordinariness of his background.
Then, didn't that mean the enemy he had to face in the future was far stronger than he thought?
Some thoughts were quite dangerous.
'All along, I thought my enemy was Carl, but he was just another chess piece on someone else's board.'
Ian thought but showed no fear. Instead, he was full of enthusiasm and valor, ready to face anything that fate shoved in front of him.
'Only when there is a strong enemy to contend with can I truly showcase my greatness,' he thought narcissistically, resolved himself, and returned the way he came.
'Let's see the reward.'
Ian received the Quest completion notice from the system on the first day he deflowered Sylvia.
However, since time was tight for obvious reasons, he postponed this matter until now.
[Ding!]
[Sylvia's favorability increased by 10 points.]
[Current Favorability: 100 (Undying Love)]
[Congratulations! You completed the Basic Quest 2: Don't let the flower slip through your fingers.]
[Congratulations! You got a rare random attribute of Sylvia: Nature's Blessing.]
[Nature's Blessing: Enhances your vitality and accelerates the healing process.]
[Do you want to accept the attribute?]
"Yes!"
Ian didn't stop this time and accepted the reward.
Suddenly, with his order, he felt refreshed all over as he was getting washed over from the inside out with the wood elemental energy.
He couldn't help but stop in his tracks, feeling this wonderful sensation.
He could feel that some sequela left after his awakening of Bloodline was getting healed passively bit by bit. It was slow, but was there.
"Good attribute!" He couldn't help but praise feeling really lucky.
"Huh?"
Just when he was feeling fresh inside out, he found that his Life Seed had another tinge of green directly opposite the blue ones.
"Elemental energy?"
Ian guessed. If he was confused before, he now understood because his body had just been washed over by the wood elemental energy.
As he was looking at the new change on his Life Seed, the system prompt sounded again, diverting his thoughts back.
[Ding!]
[You completed the Basic Quest with Heroine Sylvia.]
[Your Luck has been increased by 50 points.]
[You forged a bond of fate with Sylvia.]
[Your destiny has been changed.]

[Current Destiny: Passerby Villain (?)]
[Ding!]
[Congratulations! The condition for the initiation of the Intermediate Quest with Sylvia has been met.]
Hearing the system prompt in his mind, Ian was shocked.
"System, open my status!" He directly opened his status to see the changes.
Suddenly, a blue panel full of information appeared in his mind.

"My destiny is fixed?" He couldn't help but shout.
"Tch... so am I still a Passerby Villain?"
Ian twitched the corner of his mouth to express his annoyance. Even after gaining luck points, he was still a passerby villain. Who would like that?
"Forget it."
Ian sighed and didn't want to care.
As long as his luck continued to increase, he should be okay. After all, he still needed to compete with Carl, and having high luck was a bonus.
After a while, he began to think of his next action.
"It seems the expedition should be called off."
The main reason he accepted the expedition quota was to stop his uncle Thomas. Now that he had killed him directly, there was no reason to paddle for the reputation he didn't need.
Moreover, the situation was complicated now, and it was just right for him to withdraw legitimately.
"Ethos shouldn't attack until five months later. But I still need to be careful."
Ian had killed Adrian before, the second prince who seemed to have a chance of getting appreciated by Ethos. So, he should take extra precautions before going to the Ashen Spires again.
After thinking about the solution for a while, Ian's eyes gradually turned cold.
He suddenly remembered the blood meditation method he found inside the treasure chest of Thomas. He even found ten pills inside.
More importantly, that method even had the accompanying spell inside it.
Besides drawing the potential dry and reducing the lifespan severely, it was a good meditation method.
Although Margaret warned him not to practice such a diabolical method, that applied to him and his family. However, it was perfectly fine to produce a killer weapon.
As for ethics and morality as human beings, that's not in Ian's consideration. In his eyes, everything was justified if it was for his family.
Moreover, he wasn't going to take innocent souls arbitrarily.
"It just came at the right time. Ain't my father clearing up the duchy? Let those ambitious aristocrats and their power sacrifice."
