Should I Become a Villain?

Each awakener received a unique set of quests. They all received quests on the same day, which was the first of every month. There were no daily quests available. Only monthly quests were available.

But still, many awakeners failed to complete the monthly quests. It was because the list of quests provided was extremely difficult and had to be completed within a month. Besides getting experience points, they only could choose one of the following two rewards after completing all the quests:

[1. Get rare and valuable items. This item usually will make other awakeners call it a cheat because it's too strong. If awakeners sell the item, they will cover their living expenses for four months, assuming their lifestyle is not extravagant.

2. Can level up a skill. For example, an awakener has a skill that can control the undead. If the awakener raises the skill level, the skill cooldown and damage will increase.]

Those options were sufficient for awakeners to rush through their quests. The problem was that many awakeners could not even complete the third quest. Instead, they simply purchased a rare item and used it to level up.

Most awakeners claimed that using items was faster than completing quests. Despite this, awakeners who only used items would have different mental states. Even though their strength was comparable to the monsters, they were terrified of facing them.

That was why experience points were so influential. They felt more prepared to face the monsters after completing the quests and leveling up. In his previous life, Radmilo completed all the monthly quests. He used the reward to level up his <Spool Back> skill to D.

If he did not raise his skill level, then he could not return to seven years ago. The system told him that level C for the <Spool Back> skill could only bring him back to five years ago, at most.

It was the time when Radmilo had joined the official guild and was supervised by the IRO. If he went back to that time, he could not move as freely as he does now.

"What's wrong?" Joshua asked, because Radmilo kept quiet.

"It's nothing," Radmilo answered. "I'm just thinking about something."

He was considering how to complete the quests without raising suspicion. Skill <Pause> could last for one day at most. He would have a half-day cooldown after using his ultimate skill.

That meant Radmilo could complete quests once every two days without having to fear being found out. Even though the quests told him to enter a dangerous dungeon and defeat the boss, he thought he might complete two or three quests in one day.

"All right," Joshua said, making Radmilo stop thinking. "Shall we leave now? My dad asked me to clean up the shop today as well."

"Sure. I will follow you since the Tasmanian Devil guild hasn't confirmed my application."

They left the evacuation site and went to Adelaide city after Radmilo agreed. That was the location of the shop Joshua was referring to.

Joshua's father built the shop near the city center. Previously, the building was vacant and had not yet been sold. After the monsters attacked Broken Hill, Joshua's father gave the building to his son.

"What exactly do I need to clean?" Radmilo inquired upon entering the building.

"The hunters who evacuated Broken Hill saved my store's undamaged equipment. You can clean them up while Hannah and I clean up the rest of the room."

When Joshua pointed to the crates in the room's corner, Radmilo nodded. Actually, he had no intention of cleaning the equipment now. Thus, he snapped his fingers and time stopped.

"I want to finish the first quest."

A notification window appeared after Radmilo said that.

[Hello, my name is Glover, and I'll be your companion as you complete quests! Here is the first quest list:]

[The First Quest:

* Defeat low-level Vampiric Bird [0/5]

* Defeat high-level Vampiric Bird [0/1]

* Defeat the Giant Scorpion [0/1]]

[The system will detect the nearest dungeon location. To view the map of the dungeon, you can call 'Map.']

"Map."

A small map appeared on the screen. The map showed the location of the dungeon. It turned out that the location of the dungeon was Cobbler Creek Recreation Park. Before rushing into the dungeon, Radmilo first took a sword and armor from Joshua's shop. He wanted to test his body after returning to the past.

Radmilo's body this year was quite good because he often exercised. However, when compared to his body several years into the future, then the differences were huge. That was why he wanted to complete the quests while building his muscles.

In Cobbler Creek Recreation Park, iron gates surround the place, forming a large circle. It was a sign that the gate had exploded and turned into a dungeon. Monsters would not come out of the gate circle.

If the gate circle was very wide, then it showed that there were many monsters inside or the size of the monsters was enormous. The circle of the gate in Cobbler Creek Recreation Park became so wide because the dungeon was inhabited by many bird monsters.

[You and the dungeon are one meter apart!]

The notification appeared when Radmilo reached the dungeon. He deactivated his skill, and the dungeon time passed normally. He only deactivated his skills in the dungeon because he wanted to fight the monsters "fairly."

[You have entered the Former Cobbler Creek Recreation Park!

Mid-Level Dungeon

Danger Rank: C+]

Radmilo entered the dungeon and, as previously stated in the quest, the bird monsters were inside the dungeon. He was ecstatic when he saw the crows swarming around the trees.
