Chapter 17: Legendary Summons (3)

[You have accepted the Legendary Summons Quest(Legendary)]

[You have received your first title—The Human Traitor(Legendary)]

[Legendary Summons Quest(Legendary)—Legends tell that the world was sculpted and ruled by legendary existences. It's them that created oceans, mountains, clouds, earth, oxygen, fire, and anything else found in the world. They were worshiped with an utter deference. Yet, two races had turned their weapons at them, gathering allies from all over the world to overrun the legendary existences their ancestors deemed the creators of the world. Humans and demons were the races in question—it was them that had caught the glimpses of the legendary existences' true forms having human and demonic characteristics, and belief that the creators of the world weren't that much different from them seeped into their hearts, giving birth to the desire to steal their powers.]

[Once the legendary existences of various forms and shapes, the legends fell and their forms were stolen and scattered across the world they had together created.]

[Objective: You have caught the legendary shape of the white wolf on the tutorial island and formed a master-servant relationship, following the path of the human traitors. You're now eligible to find the shapes and forms of legendary existences and conjure pacts with them. Find the traces of the legendary existences in the tutorial island and make pacts with them.]

[Reward: Pet Zone Skill(Passive)—a skill to breach the time limits of your summon and have them stay with you indefinitely in the safe zones or out of the battle.]

[You have received the information about the main quest and its clues(Available on the mainland)]

Jake stood like a statue while reading all those game messages.

He was so overwhelmed by them that he didn't know how to proceed from now on.

Deciding it had better to begin from the start, he looked at the first title he'd received—The Human Traitor.

It appeared he became like those humans, demons, and their allies from the legends, with the difference that he wouldn't steal legendary existences' powers but find their scattered forms and make pacts with them.

Since Jake had made a pact with Odin before even receiving this title, he'd believed it was quite useless for him and only put him in a disadvantageous position as he could imagine a few insightful NPCs being against the traitors from the past and their descendants.

That said, this title was actually really useful.

Odin became Jake's summon because of the item—the tooth that had dropped from the forest wolf boss—getting drowned in his blood.

With this title, however, Jake could make pacts with the legendary existences' forms without any mediator. All he had to do was to find the trace of legendary existences and tame them.

'Cool power,' Jake thought inwardly.

Next was the quest's description. It had given him a nice story from the past about traitors and legendary existences.

Jake suspected that it was because of it that he had found out about the main quest and could participate in it. Going for the legends and harnessing their powers was such a simple yet thrilling storyline that Jake could see a lot of allure in it and naturally wanted to have his say in it.

He'd love to have more summons and their powers to expand his archery path!

Listening to Richard's advice, Jake also thoroughly looked through the quest's description.

'Might be me reading too much into it, but it feels like legendary existences and monsters have much more in common than I think... can't really read more from that yet. I lack information, but this description will stay in the quest log so I can always return to it. I think I must kill monsters and bosses in the tutorial island to find traces. It aligns with my goal, so I just have to proceed like usual,' Jake mused inwardly.

However much he perused the quest's content, he couldn't find anything more.

The Pet Zone skill was also highly useful.

As of now, other than in a short five-minute battle alongside his summon, Jake couldn't train with Odin, teach his puppy about his archery forms, or find out about their teamwork. Which meant that the reward of the legendary quest was exactly what Jake needed to strengthen his bonds with his summon and practice their teamwork.

At last, Jake closed all system windows and looked up at Richard.

The man smiled and passed him the Silver Ax.

[You have picked up the Silver Ax.]

"Already done with your research?" Jake asked.

Richard chuckled, "You stood frozen for a while. How's the quest?"

"Like a cool tale I'd love to participate in," Jake smiled, "How many legendary summons are up here?"

Richard raised a white flag, "That I can't tell."

Because he felt bad about it, Richard offered to tell Jake about the legendary items the other two players had dropped from the wolf boss before. Richard usually wouldn't breach anyone's privacy like that, but he'd become closer with Jake, and those players wouldn't really know about it or be hurt in any way because of it.

Jake nodded, "Sure."

Richard grinned, "So, one of the players got the wolf magic soul. It's a pretty strong passive skill that gives her magic wolf characteristics and strengthens it. For example, her fireball turns into a wolf head."

"That's lit." Jake laughed.

Richard agreed with his friend, "Right? I found it awesome as well. I didn't have a good relationship with this player because she was so impatient and loud... you could say that she was louder and wilder than the wolf boss! That skill suits her well, so it seemed like a fate."

"Sounds like someone I know... you must have been gone through a lot, Richard," Jake patted his friend's shoulder. He had a few troublesome friends and a hyperactive sister, which sometimes was too much for him.

Richard, however, dealt with players on a daily basis and must have seen a lot more than him.

How could Jake not pity him?

Richard felt that rich sympathy and thanked Jake for it.

"Thanks, Archer... you're right. That woman dealt with the wolf boss through her talent for magic. She didn't seem foreign with physical exercise, either, and was quite far from most aspiring mages I've seen here," Richard said, "Another player was also unique in his own way. He wasn't even a fighter, you know?"

"Oh?" Jake was intrigued by that one.

Richard didn't tease him and instantly spilled the beans, "He was interested in crafting classes, so I thought he wouldn't go to the forest at all. The crafting classes receive many more quests than fighters to get resources so as to they can stay in the wooden cabin and practice what they're interested in... I'd often oversee his work and just pass quests for whatever resource he needed... then he came out with the idea to get resources straight from monsters himself. I told him about the makeshift beds the wolves make and sleep in, and then he came up with such a comfortable leaf bed that the wolf boss entered into the eternal slumber in it.

"That's how I knew this player had a good gift for traps. I offered him quests for it, and he cleared the forest with nothing but traps. He was one of those crazy players like you. His legendary reward for the boss' eternal slumber was the wolf ancestry book skill. For fighters, this book's knowledge would highlight vital points on any wolf-type monster and kin and facilitate their skills to deal much more damage to them. But he was a crafter, and the skill adapted adequately to his occupation. From that day onwards, he made traps with materials extracted from wolves that later were much better than traps made from other forest monsters. You could say he became the grim reaper of wolves. Haha!" Richard finished the story with a burst of laughter.

Jake chuckled, "I was meaning to ask. How often the boss respawns?"

"It takes him twenty-four to respawn," Richard replied.

Jake nodded, "Great. I'll practice well on him. In the meantime, I will cut down the trees."
