Fredrinn Firecrown: The Weakest Villain

Chapter 2: Beginner’s Gift Pack



One year passed by in the blink of an eye. Within this one year, Thomas realized that he had transmigrated into the game world.

He tried all sorts of ways to log out, but after thousands of attempts, he never succeeded. He was scared at first, but he gradually became accustomed to his life as Fredrinn Firecrown.

Looking at the handsome face in front of the mirror, he smiled bitterly. "Other than having a handsome face, this man is utterly useless in everything."

Fredrinn Firecrown was the heir of the Firecrown Household which is the strongest family in Red Sun City. Unfortunately, he was born with the weakest spirit root and was destined to become a cannon fodder in this cruel cultivation world. The only good thing about him was his family background and his extremely handsome face.

Based on the memories he inherited, Fredrinn Firecrown was also one of the biggest bullies in Red Sun City. He used his status as the heir of the Firecrown Household to intimidate the residents and to do many evil deeds. Because of his tyranny, everyone in the city hated him. The only person who remained good to him despite his actions was his personal maid, Olivia, and his father, Roland Firecrown.

"There's no use complaining about this. I can only accept that I am now Fredrinn Firecrown. " He muttered to himself, silently accepting his new identity.

While he was sighing heavily, a prompt suddenly appeared in front of him, almost making him jump up in surprise.

This was the first time a system prompt had appeared since he had transmigrated into the game world.

[Your soul has fully synchronized with Fredrinn Firecrown's body. You have been rewarded with a Beginner's Gift Pack!]

Beneath the notification was an image of a gift box.

Out of habit, Fredrinn claimed the rewards.

[You received x1 Crimson Leaf Elixir!]

[You received x1 Sword Talent Upgrade Card!]

[You received 1 Year of Cultivation Experience!]

As soon as he claimed his rewards, his cultivation which had been stuck at the 10th Layer of the Body Refining Stage suddenly jumped to the first layer of the Qi Gathering Stage. Using the game's standard of leveling, this cultivation was equivalent to reaching Level 11.

"One year's worth of cultivation only increased my level by one? Is my spirit root really that useless?" He chuckled bitterly, but this didn't upset him. The appearance of the system prompt was like a godsent opportunity for him.

"What's this?" Fredrinn grabbed the crimson-colored leaf that appeared in his inventory. It was the size of a palm and it felt warm to touch.

While he was closely observing the leaf, another system prompt appeared.

Crimson Leaf Elixir [6th-Grade]

- A leaf from the Crimson Cloud Tree. It can be used to strengthen the spirit root and increase the consumer's affinity towards fire.

"Huh?! It can actually strengthen the spirit root! This is a treasure! It's even a 6th-Grade Elixir! This is something that only Level 60 players could find!"

As a former player, he knew how difficult it was to find 6th-grade elixirs. Treasures like this can only be found in high-level maps and players usually form big teams before going into those areas. This was because all high-level maps were home to dangerous creatures and cultivators!

"Can I even consume this elixir without dying in the process?" Fredrinn muttered to himself while looking at the crimson leaf. He was only at the Qi Gathering Stage so consuming a 6th-grade elixir might cause his body to explode due to the immense Qi within the elixir.

Thinking about this, he temporarily put aside the Crimson Leaf Elixir and looked at the second reward. It was a golden card with ancient characters engraved on it. With his level of knowledge, he didn't understand even a single word. Luckily, the system prompt gave him a description of the item.

Sword Talent Upgrade Card [???]

- Increases sword talent by one star.

Seeing this, Fredrinn's eyes bulged in shock. Talent is something that couldn't be easily upgraded. Even for the players, it takes a long time of training and grinding before they can increase their talent.

[Would you like to use the Sword Talent Upgrade Card?]

[Yes] [No]

The moment this system prompt appeared, Fredrinn immediately clicked [Yes].

[Congratulations! You have upgraded your sword talent by one star!]

"Status Panel!"

"My sword talent has indeed increased…" Fredrinn couldn't conceal his excitement. As the most untalented waste in Red Sun City, he had always been a laughingstock. If it weren't for his background, he would have already died many times over.

"Now that I have a 1-star sword talent, I should be able to learn sword techniques much faster than before. I should test it out but before that…" He took out the Crimson Leaf Elixir from his inventory.

This elixir could change his spirit root.

"Should I eat it or not?" There was a look of hesitation in his eyes. This item was incredibly precious. If someone learned that he possessed such an elixir, his parents and even the entire Firecrown Household would be implicated.

'The longer I hesitate, the more its energy leaks out. Someone might discover it if I hold onto it for too long.' Thinking about this, Fredrinn gritted his teeth and gathered his courage before throwing the elixir into his mouth.

He was already expecting a painful process to refine the elixir, but after swallowing it down, he didn't feel any discomfort.

"It feels warm... It's like I'm bathing in a hot spring…" He closed his eyes to enjoy this unique sensation.

After an unknown amount of time, he felt strangely rejuvenated.

[Congratulations! You have upgraded your spirit root!]

[Congratulations! Your fire affinity has increased by one star!]

"Holy…!" His low-grade spirit root actually turned into a high-grade spirit root!

There were six types of spirit roots. The weakest was the low-grade spirit root which he formerly had. This was followed by the intermediate-grade spirit root. Most cultivators have this type of spirit root. After that was the high-grade spirit root. Only a small number of geniuses in Red Sun City possessed this type of spirit root.

However, only those with superior-grade spirit roots could be called true geniuses. In the entire Red Sun City, only his father and the city lord possessed this type of spirit root. As for the younger generation, they could only be counted on one hand.

There were also heaven-defying geniuses born with excellent-grade spirit roots, but there was only a handful of them in the entire Great Vemune Continent. Each of them was a famous individual who could command the wind and clouds. If one such individual was born, they would be treated with great care and respect.

As for the last type of spirit root, it has been a long time since someone with that kind of spirit root was born. Someone born with the divine-grade spirit root was destined to dominate the entire world!
