The World Turned into a Game After I Woke up

The Troll Dungeon, at the Faroe Islands…

“Grah!” The Trolls screamed in pain as they died from a single blow, but I swung my spear through the horde of Troll Warriors relentlessly. It took me less than five minutes to clear the horde of thirty Trolls and when the last one died, I fell to my knees. I had been hunting nonstop and without rest for more than a day.

I laid down on the floor spread-eagled, and let out a sigh. My allied factions and I were actually planning on holding a feast after Mexico, but after what happened at Anton’s Store, I just had so many things on my mind to deal with it. I came here to try to clear my mind.

“Shit!” But all I did was just tire myself out. I tried to stay focused on the Trolls in front of me and hunted without rest, but I just found myself still thinking about the Judge’s Continent and how I was supposed to prepare for it. I also kept thinking about what to do with my 10,377 extra Stat points.”

“Ah, I’ll go with VIT!” It was safe to say that I really was a coward. That was the whole reason behind my desire to get stronger. I had defeated four of the Monarchs because I was a coward, because I was afraid they would get in my way.

“I haven’t yet met anyone strong enough to pose a threat to my HP, but it’ll be good to raise it nonetheless.” My VIT right now was well over 16,000, and I had almost 10,000,000 HP, but I was still afraid. I did not know what awaited me at the Judge’s Continent. It might seem better to just raise my STR and attack power so that I wouldn’t need to feel threatened, but my ATT hadn’t let me down so far. With just about all of my attacks being critical hits now, I was now strong enough to be called an Emperor. My attack power was basically at its maximum potential.

Then again, I did wonder what I would do if my attack power still wasn’t enough, which was why I was unsure of what to do with my Stat points. “But the Otadolon stage is about to end, which means this is the endgame. I know my ATT is high enough, but if it isn’t, then that means my VIT and HP aren’t high enough. I have to be safe.” In the end, it was all just about peace of mind.

My base VIT and AGI were at 11,000 points, so I would need 9,000 more points to get VIT up to 20,000. There was also that additional bonus I could get whenever more than one of my Stats reached 10,000 points.

“If it happened then, then it’ll happen if more than one of my Stats reaches 20,000.” Thanks to that, I felt a bit more at ease.

“Open Stats Menu.” I opened my Stats Menu and began to raise my VIT. After a little while, a message appeared.

==[Your base VIT has surpassed 20,000 points.

Your total VIT points: 25,001

Your base VIT points: 20,000

VIT points increased by items: 4,700

VIT points increased by skills: 300 (King-Emperor’s Grand Dignity), 1 (Kiran’s Stat point.)]==

==[You will be awarded a bonus for gaining 20,000 points in VIT before anyone else.

VIT will be increased by 2,000 points.

This bonus is awarded to the first person to accomplish this achievement.]==

==[You have obtained a Grand Achievement.]

You have reached 20,000 points in two Stats (STR, VIT) before anyone else.

You will be awarded a bonus of 1,000 extra Stat points.

This bonus is awarded to the first person to accomplish this achievement.]==

“Only a thousand?” I had expected 2,000 points since I was given twice the points when I reached 20,000 points on STR and VIT. But this achievement only gave me a thousand extra points for doing both.

“Is it because they’re just extra points?” These points could be invested into whatever Stat I wished, but the other Stat points were automatically invested into their respective Stats. “Oh, well. Open Stats Menu.”

And with that, my HP were now over 15,000,000, and my defensive Stats had increased considerably as well. Just looking at my Stats Menu put me at ease.

“I still have 2,377 Stat points left, though. Hmm… I’ll save them for now.” I just needed a total of 9000 extra Stat points to get my AGI up to 20,000 points. If I saved the points for that, I could get a total of 4,000 Stat points: 2,000 AGI points, and 2,000 extra points. I couldn’t give up on that so easily.

I closed my Stats Menu after one more look and sprang to my feet. I grabbed my spear and charged at a horde of Trolls, hunting as I waited for Pedro’s Chest to open. I hadn’t really expected much from it at first, but now that I knew of the impending arrival of the Judge’s Continent, I was going to need all the help I could get.

Cape Town, South Africa…

“Were you going to keep this a secret from me as well?”

“Well…”

“To think you would leave me, Dorofei Krutikov, the top shareholder of the Troll Market, out of the loop; I’m very disappointed in you. All those times you’ve called me your friend were all lies, weren’t they?”

[Translator’s Note: made a mistake in CH 143, where Dorofei was first introduced. He’s not the owner of the Troll Market; he’s supposed to be the top shareholder]

“No, they weren’t. I’m taking a huge risk as a Store manager by telling you this in the first place. Do you not realize that?”

“I think it’s a fair price after all that I’ve done for you,” Dorofei said to Bohol, the owner of the Troll Market and leader of the Golden Trolls, seeming genuinely hurt.

“But this really is a secret we are required to keep… it’s more precise to say that we’re prohibited from speaking of it unless required to.”

“That’s why I’m just asking to at least nudge me in the right direction.”

“All Store VIP members will learn of it within the next year, anyway.”

“I’m supposed to be the infamous Information Hunter. Do you seriously expect me to wait like everyone else?”

“Hmm…” Bohol contemplated what Dorofei just said. “Fine. I’ll tell you. But it will cost you.”

“I’ll give you whatever you want.”

“Give me back all 80% of the shares you hold in the Troll Market.”

“…” Dorofei hesitated. He couldn’t just readily part with all those shares. “Is this information that worth it?”

“Obviously. Be thankful that’s all I want.”

“I understand.” Dorofei had noticed that things were getting busy within the Troll Market and knew that something big was going to happen, if it hadn’t happened already.

“The Earth’s Otadolon stage is about to end soon. Around that time, the Judge’s Continent will appear. Everything will be decided there; your fate, and Earth’s.”

“…” It was so bizarre that it almost sounded like a riddle, but Dorofei knew that Bohol was not a man to play with words. Dorofei also knew that he couldn’t take this message lightly. If his fate was on the line, then it was simple; the end was nigh!

“Thank you.”

“Don’t worry about it. I’m just sorry I can’t tell you any more.”

“Well, I guess it’s about time I get going, then. I’ll have to start preparing, won’t I?”

“I wish you the best of luck.”

Dorofei gave Bohol a small bow and left. He still didn’t know everything, but knowing that everything would be decided on the Judge’s Continent was enough. It was worth giving up his Troll Market shares.

Troll Dungeon…

“Grah!”

I had always preferred not to hunt at the Troll Dungeon. Just on the second floor of the dungeon, the Trolls always traveled in hordes of at least thirty. On the third floor, that number increased to at least fifty of a variety of Troll Warriors, Soldiers, Mages, and Warlocks. I had the ability to defeat them, but there were other high-grade dungeons that yielded more EXP with easier monsters. I never had a reason to stay here and fight like mad for less EXP since I usually stayed at least a month just to hunt.

But now, I was doing exactly that. I practically threw myself at any Troll horde I could find and swung my spear relentlessly. This time around, my attacks easily sliced through the Trolls’ hides and I no longer found myself tired out after fighting a few Troll hordes. Hell, their attacks even bounced off my skin, and I barely lost any HP after a fight. My entire body was a weapon as I mowed through the entire dungeon floor.

I was receiving the occasional level up messages, but I didn’t care about them. The message I looked out for pertained to something else.

==[The Chest Containing Pedro’s Unfulfilled Desire for Revenge will now open.

The Chest currently has +100 points.

You will now receive an item of benefit.]==

Soon, the Chest disappeared and left a single item in its place, as if it wasn’t a big deal.

“…” I stared dumbly at the item, however, because the item was shining with a bright purple light. It was a Rank 10 item, and an accessory at that. I really just couldn’t believe my luck at this point.

“Item Check,” I ordered in a shaky voice.

==[Avatar of Revenge (Rank 10)

This bracelet was once worn by Avali, born from vengeance. Born from a strong desire for revenge, Avali lived only for vengeance. Eventually, Avali succeeded in its quest for vengeance, but now needed a new goal to live for. It needed a new target for revenge. It decided to make all monsters, its own species, animals, plants, and the very earth it lived on its targets for revenge. Blind with vengeance, it soon destroyed everything in its path, including the very God that created it. All that was left was this bracelet.

Increase STR by 5,000 points.

Decrease CRIT Rate by 10%, Increase CRIT Damage by 1,000%.]==

“Holy…” While its description was long, its effects were pretty darn simple. What caught my eye was that it decreased my CRIT rate by 10%, instead of increasing it. 10% was a lot to lose. My Harrier only increased CRIT rate by 4.1% and the Desert King’s Resolution only increased it by 4.9%. The King-Emperor’s Commitment increased it by 18% but that was only after Amplification. But seeing as how it had increased STR by 5,000 and CRIT damage by 1,000%, it seemed that it was for balance reasons. In exchange for the lower CRIT chance, I had increased CRIT damage.

“Well, for someone like me, it’s more than enough.” Even though it was a 10% loss, I still had enough CRIT chance and luck to make up for it.

“But… that STR, though…” It hadn’t been that long since I was struggling with myself over VIT and STR, and had ended up deciding to go with VIT instead. But with this new item, it was like the system was trying to make up for it!
