Supreme Archer: Taking The Game's Weakest Class To The Top

Chapter 38: Misfit (1)



It was unfortunate that Odin's time limit forced him to leave, as Jake would have loved to share the spoils of their well-deserved victory, to say nothing of him picking up a new legendary trace!

It meant a new summon would soon join their ranks.

Jake was so interested in it that he skipped all system messages and clicked on the one displaying the news of the legendary trace.

[You have extracted the legendary trace from the monkey boss, Puffy.]

[The legendary trace has entered your equipment.]

[You're free to bind it to yourself.]

'Wait a second,' Jake thought, clicking on the inventory. Inside, he found the legendary trace, which looked like a transparent slice of darkness with golden stars cluttering it.

Jake believed it was dark because of Puffy's fur, and the golden stars meant its legendary grade. He could be wrong, but that didn't really matter.

What shocked Jake was that he could store those traces in his inventory. They weren't bound to him, which meant he could sell them at auction.

Jake'd earn an absurd amount of money if he were to sell this legendary trace right now!

After all, Legend Enigma Online only kept getting popular as time passed, and prices of legendary items could reach up to six digits!

Players desperately wanted to get ahead of others to become famous in the game on which the eyes of Earth's population were drawn.

'If I get any trace other than legendary, I will consider selling it to make money. In the first place, I can't focus too much on summons because I am an archer, not a summoner. Summons should only be a part of my strength,' Jake thought.

He decided not to accept any summons and properly build a team around himself.

It was difficult to say how often he would find those traces in monsters outside the tutorial island, but even now, Jake couldn't see himself with more than four summons.

Too many summons would take too much of his time.

Another problem was that he didn't know how to assess a summon's utility and skills. All he knew about this new legendary trace stored in his inventory was that it originated from a monkey.

He could imagine how valuable a monkey would be to him, but what if the monkey in question ended up with utterly different skills than what Jake had thought of?

'It's tricky… I should learn more about summons and traces to properly gauge their utilities,' Jake came to terms with his current weaknesses, smiling.

No matter what, the legendary summon should be immensely useful in the game's early stages, regardless of its skills and utilities. Jake clicked on the legendary trace icon in his inventory and casually bonded it to his soul.

[You have bonded the legendary trace to yourself.]

'I wonder what kind of tattoo I got this time,' Jake thought, recalling the cool visage of the wolf on his right biceps. It was a trace of Odin bound to him.

Since dying on the tutorial island wasn't punished by anything, Jake could have taken off his clothes and examined his body. His curiosity, however, compelled him to summon the second summon to learn more about him.

Jake had given in to his feelings.

[You have summoned your second summon.]

A small baby monkey appeared before him.

The little bro had dark fur, an unnaturally elongated thin tail, and golden eyes shining on his adorable face. He was cute, especially when he raised his face to look at Jake, making his unique eyes twinkle with many stars. Those were more precious than any gold coin!

Jake extended his hand and stretched out his little finger, "Nice to meet you, little one. I'm Archer, but that's an alias in this world, and my real name is Jake. Only you and Odin know about it."

He had learned that sharing secrets was one of the best ways to make a bond with the new summons. Odin was particularly proud when he realized that Richard didn't know Jake's real name and kept calling him Archer.

Since the second summon was also a young one that had just come to life, his eyes shone more upon learning a secret. He nodded a few times while smiling.

That said, the little monkey hadn't screeched at all.

Jake didn't know much about monkeys, so he believed it was because his second summon was too young.

He smiled, "You need a name, too. You see, I believed I'd get you, so I already thought of a name!"

The little bro widened his eyes in surprise.

Jake chuckled, "Wukong!"

That was when Jake received a sudden system message.

[The name you chose for your second summon matches his origins.]

[Would you like to change the name or keep it?]

'What kind of question is this?' Jake asked himself, narrowing his eyes at this suspicious question. It seemed that names were more important than he thought, and even the system had given him an option to change it… but for what reason? 'Name means more than I thought… does it mean this little bro's path will be decided if I name him Wukong?'

Jake looked at the baby monkey and asked, "Do you like the name Wukong?"

It didn't take a second for the little bro to vehemently nod his head with a dazzling smile.

Jake chuckled, "So that's it! You're Wukong from now on!"

Wukong grinned.

[Despite being the human traitor, you have gone against the order and tradition of traitors and formed a genuine bond with the legendary trace of Wukong.]

[Your title, The Human Traitor, has evolved into Misfit.]

'Huh?' Jake blinked.

[Misfit(Legendary)—in the era where humans, demons, and their allies fought against the legendary existences, some people had developed equal respect for each other and joined hands to stop the war, becoming Misfits. They had no home, allies, and only themselves, yet their existence shaped the world into what it is.]

While Jake read the sudden revelation, Wukong ignored everything happening to his master and turned around to spread his wings—running toward the monkey king's fruits.
