I Reject Quests

Chapter 65: Completing Daily Missions

Rewen took the update ID and stared at the receptionist. "Can I have your number?"

It was so abrupt that the receptionist needed to double-check if she had heard what he had said correctly. She didn't think too much and took out a card. "Here."

[Ding! Daily Missions from 'Male God System' completed! Would you like to receive the rewards right now?]

[Yes] [No]

[Ding! The Host has received a Tier 1 Bronze Lottery Ticket! Would you like to use it right now?]

[Yes] [No]

'Nope. Not now.' The daily missions from the system were the same as yesterday. 'I could rely on daily missions but they probably won't give me stats which I need the most. The chained quest is the only way I could get stronger. Let's see, system. Give me something through which I get strong in a short period of time.'

[The Host is advised to use the resources available.]

'Not that I didn't expect this. The system gets active when it doesn't need to be and becomes passive when it needs to be active. Nevermind, this is enough assurance that the system believes that I could pass the obstacle on my own.'

While having such thoughts, he came in front of a vending machine inside the Club building.

He inserted a few coins and two canned drinks came out from the bottom.

After that, he didn't waste any time drinking the entire thing in one gulp. Then, he drank another. 

*Burp*

"Hagver really is the best." Tossing the cans to the nearby dustbin, he left the building.

'It's 9:10 right now. So I have got a lot of time to complete the remaining missions. I should just run the way back home. It's not that far.'

[Ding! Daily Missions from 'Bloodline System' completed! Would you like to receive the rewards right now?]

[yes] [No]

Rewen didn't give any response. 

Only after he home did he tapped on 'Yes'.

[Ding! There are three rewards presented for the Host but the Host can only pick one of them.

1. Chaos Bloodline (0.01 mL)

2. 5% Bloodline Activation

3. 2x Power Spike]

[What would the Host like to choose?]

'3.' Rewen picked the '2x Power Spike' this time without any hesitation.

[Ding! The Host has received a temporary '2x Power Spike' for a time duration of 45 seconds. Would you like to use it right now?]

[Yes] [No]

'Wow. Temporary. Of course, what did I expect?' He pressed on 'No'.

[The '2x Power Spike' stored at the Inventory.]

'Still a good thing. With this, I could temporarily reach the level of Instructor Xovin who has stats over 80. I gotta say that [Freestyle Knights Combat] technique is one heck of a hack. For people with low fighting prowess, this is a godsend. System, what's the cap of the technique?'

[100.]

'Does that mean that when I have an average of 101, the stats after using the technique would be 400?'

[After Host reaches an average stat of 25, the stats after using the [Freestyle Knights Combat] technique won't increase beyond 100 no matter how many original stats the Host raises.]

'I see.'

Cal, Rewen and Denny sat for dinner.

"I heard you got selected to the Grand Ultine Kapile Club." Cal asked.

"I did."

"Are you planning to become an official or something?" 

"I am."

"Why?"

"The pay is good."

"Indeed." 

"Uncle called you." The 'Uncle' Denny was referring to was Rewen's father.

"Father?"

"Yes. Call him before you go to bed."

"Sure."

"Oh right, Denny. Be careful when you are out at night." Cal suddenly warned Denny.

"Why?" Denny was a bit confused. She wasn't weak to protect herself.

"Word got out that the perpetrators from the Red Tragedy Incident did a jailbreak."

"For real?" 

Rewen recalled what the Red Tragedy Incident was all about. 'It was a terrorist group that got infamous in Travil Town five years ago after dying an entire street in blood during the time of a festival. Before that, nobody had heard or seen them. They were caught immediately. To think that after five years, they would jailbreak'

"Why did they do that though?" Rewen asked.

"Do what? Jailbreak?'

"No. Killing people."

"Rewen, there are all kinds of psychopaths over the world. They didn't necessarily have to have a reason to do something like this. Perhaps they thought that by doing this, they could leave a mark in history." Cal casually said. 

After having dinner, Rewen went to his room and called his father.

"Hello?"

"It's me."

"Rewen. I heard you have refused your mother's invitation to stay with us."

"Yes."

"I also heard that you have grown ridiculously strong."

"Yes."

"Good for you. Any plans for the future? Or are you still without any ambitions?"

"I'm planning to become a State Official."

"A State Official, huh. A good starting point. By the way, your little brother has already learned how to walk." A laugh came from the other side.

"..."

"Why did you suddenly become silent? Is something wrong?"

"I have a little brother?"

"..."

"..."

"Wait. You seriously didn't know?"

"I didn't. How many days has it been?"

"It's been ten months. I remember informing this to Cal. Did he forget to tell?"

"No. I probably forgot because I had interference. I'm a lot better than I used to be."

Rewen's father didn't say anything for a while. "Wait a moment, I'll video call."

*Beep*

***

In a place far away from the Yellow Contient.

It was early morning. Viviana was playing with her newborn son. Once in a while, a small smile crept up on her face when the newborn did something interesting.

The door opened and a refined middle-aged man entered with a laptop on his hand. 

Viviana looked at her husband. "What did Rewen say?" She knew that he was talking to her eldest son a while ago.

"That kid wants to become a State Official. Nevermind that, he doesn't even know that he had a little brother."

"What?" Viviana received a shock.

"I'm serious." The middle-aged man set up a video call on his laptop. 

Sometime later, a young man with dark crimson hair came into view. It was naturally Rewen. He was awkwardly looking at his parents when he suddenly spotted a little guy in his mother's thigh.

As if he found something amusing, the little guy clapped and started jumping on his mother's thigh.

Viviana held him up. "Ron, this is your Big Brother."

"Waaa!!" The little guy was laughing non-stop.

"Show him how you walk." Viviana adjusted the little guy's feet on the floor and retracted her hands.

The little guy tiptoed a bit and was about to fall when Viviana caught him.

"I'll send some pictures of him. I'm surprised you didn't know about Ron." Rewen's father looked at his son and exclaimed.

"Yeah, my condition was really bad last year." Rewen replied from the other side.

Everyone fell silent. Two seconds later, Viviana chimed into the conversation. "You want to become a State Official?" 

"Yes. I found myself to be a Martial Artist rather than a Mage."

"You are something big from us."

"I am." Surprisingly, Rewen didn't deny.

"It's okay. Everyone has secrets they don't want to tell others." Rewen's father said in an understanding manner. 

Viviana didn't say anything more and continued to play with Ron.

After a minute, Rewen's father ended the video call and let out a sigh.

"We have failed him, Vivi. On the surface, he looked perfectly normal but I could sense he was very tense, awkward and had a lot on his mind."

"A lot on his mind?" 

"Hmm. His disposition also changed. Maybe it's because he got better but I feel there's more to it. On second thoughts, you should have brought him here."

Viviana snorted. "Who was one who said to 'let him do what he wants'?"

"Let's visit him next month."

Viviana nodded.

***

Closing his PC, he went on to the garden while thinking about his little brother. 'To think I have a direct sibling in this world' He had always yearned to have a little brother or sister. 

He shook his head and threw the thoughts at the back of his head.

"The only thing that's left to do is practicing [Freestyle Knights Combat] technique for 10 minutes. Don't know what's the purpose of practicing but I ain't gonna let the 10 MP reward fly away."

Ten minutes later. 

[Ding! Daily Mission from 'Basic Knights and Magic System' completed! Would you like to receive the rewards right now?]

[Yes] [No]

'Yes.'

[+10 Mana Storage Capacity]

"Good."

He took a shower and went back to his room.

"Now the lottery"

[Confirmation needed to use 'Tier 1 Bronze Lottery Ticket'.]

[Confirm] [I take it back]

'Confirm.'

One second.

Two seconds.

Three seconds.

[+2% Mana Resonance]

'Alright' Rewen was neither sad nor happy with the outcome. He had already predicted that he wouldn't receive a Legendary ranked property like the previous time because he used up his luck on that. 'It would be useful, I guess.' Not much concerned about it, he turned off the lights and fell asleep.
