SSS-Class Ranker Return

Chapter 97

Knight’s Oath (1)

arena!

The rules here, also called Dali Chicken Coop, were simple. Two matched opponents fight until one dies in a place that looks like a Colosseum.

You win if you kill your opponent.

There is no penalty outside the arena even if you die or kill, so it was also a space where you could run wildly.

‘The best thing about it is that Berserk is reset in every edition.’

The purpose of the arena is to show fierce battles or overwhelming battles. For that reason, every time a round was over, the cooldown time of all skills, status abnormalities, and even the aftereffects of Berserk were reset.

Where else could there be a good condition for a Rokhan to run rampant like this?

For that reason, even in previous lives, very few Berserkers, including Rokhan, farted in the arena.

Although it was temporary, receiving the immortality effect at twice the stat was a huge advantage.

jii ing.

‘It’s your turn.’

After sitting on the bench for a while and waiting, the team trembled slightly.

It is to announce the order of appearance of Rokhan.

‘It’s good that the order is quick.’

How is this possible? Lokan is the only one who has reached the Central Continent, and there is no arena in the tertiary city.

The reason was simple. When two or more users of the same rank register in the arena, the matching system is applied, but when only one user registers, NPCs of the level set by the system appear as enemies.

Thanks to this, he had to deal with NPCs up to level 190, but Lokan liked it rather.

You can relax your body moderately and, above all, match quickly.

If other users had registered, they would not have been able to use the arena until those users applied for matching.

‘So, before the others come, we should raise the rating quickly.’

So, the game started quickly. Most of them will be mercenary, but there may be some that are soldier grade.

I could spend a month waiting for a match, so I decided to collect arena points and use them to raise my rating.

“move.”

Shuong.

The field of vision changes with the starter word. Lokan, sitting on a bench, appeared in the middle of the Colosseum.

‘Where, let’s see who he is’

[10 Swordsman Masimu][Lv 150]

As I stared at the opponent with the long sword, simple information came to mind.

Compared to current users, it’s a decent opponent, but it’s not enough to deal with Lokan.

‘It’s like a soldier-level thing.’

Rokhan’s eyes, who had been slightly anticipating that he would be able to relax his body properly, subsided again.

At least a soldier.

At this level, it would be ridiculous to expect someone who could make Lokan nervous.

Still, he was designed to come out up to level 190, so I was expecting it, but since he doesn’t have a record, it seemed like he was pasted with such a naughty boy.“It’s the first game, you don’t need to be nervous. You will be my eleventh sacrifice anyway.”

Unaware of Lokan’s speed, Masimu made a provocation.

‘Hmm, if I win about 10 in a row, I’m sure I’ll stick with someone worthwhile’

[You have won the match.][Current winning streak: None][You have acquired 10 arena points.][Current Arena Points: 10]

“Ah… … .”

After thinking for a while, Rokhan looked down at Masimu’s body as if he was sorry.

He didn’t intend to fight much, but it seems that he was killed instantly by an unintentional slash.

“Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!

“cool!”

It was an absurd victory that was close to an accident, but it seemed that the appearance was quite stimulating to the audience.

The fact that the game was decided by one shot of an ax swung like a fly, doesn’t it mean that it’s difficult to even gauge the strength of Rokhan?

No matter how much Masimu was a mouth-watering guy, he was still a soldier, so there was no doubt that a promising newcomer had appeared.

‘It’s 10 Arena Points… … .’

Considering the number that Lokan had to collect to achieve his goal, it was a staggering number, but considering that he only gave 1 point in battles of the mercenary class, not the soldier class, it was a good enough figure.

‘The only answer is winning streak.’

In addition, the arena points are added to the bonus as you win streak.

It’s 10 now, but if you win 2 in a row, it’s 11, if you win 3 in a row, it’s 12.

In this way, it rises by 1, and every 10 consecutive wins, the additional points double.

Even so, Lokan needs quite a lot of winning streak, but he is full of himself.

He can’t get tired of guys who aren’t even level 200

Lokan went into battle, waiting tirelessly to collect arena points.

[Your skills have been recognized by winning streak. Soldier: The opponent is replaced with Tier 4.]

‘It was like this, too.’

After a few consecutive victories like that, a new notification appeared. He has proven his skills through winning streak, so he will match him with a stronger opponent.

It was advantageous to compete with an easier opponent for more consecutive victories, but thinking about it later, I had to raise the tier anyway.

You have to go up to Tier 1 in order to be promoted to the next level.

It seemed that once I only filmed it there, there would be no opponent for a while, so I wouldn’t hang my head.

‘To do that… … After all, it’s a winning streak.’

The tier went up, and while confirming that the level 160 level opponent appeared, Lokan indifferently shook off the Battle Ax.

win and win again.

Lokan, who continued his winning streak for two more days, had to collect all the arena points he wanted.

[Arranged Arena Points: 30,276]

Exactly three hundred victories.

The system only recorded up to a 50-game winning streak, but if he had accumulated the 50-game winning streak without cutting, Lokan might have accumulated enough arena points to buy the arena.

And in the process, he also earned a decent title.

[The Man with 50 Streaks] [Rare]

Kudos to you for achieving 50 consecutive victories in the Arena! Now, on your stage, no one dares not be intimidated by you.

[Hold Effect]

– Creates an aura that lowers stats by overpowering enemies within the combat range

A wide-area effect that reduces the stats of nearby enemies just by fighting.

For some reason these days, it seemed like he was getting skills and effects suitable for many-to-one, but considering what Lokan would do later, it was a welcome thing.

Thinking about that time, even if I collected war-specialized skills and items, it was not enough.

“The Arena Shop is open.”

Having accumulated enough arena points, Rokhan immediately went into action.

He opened an arena shop where he could use arena points as currency to purchase all kinds of combat-related items, and he purchased items that had nothing to do with combat.

[Warrior’s Honor] [Magic]

Increases Fame by 100 when used.

Rokhan chose the honor of a warrior who eats up to 1,500 arena points each on the subject that raises the prestige level by 100.

When I bought 20 of them, I ran out of arena points I had been working on.

[Arranged Arena Points: 276][Current Fame Number: 2,096]

Instead, the Fame number has exceeded 2,000.

The arena points could have been saved even if the man with a single title hadn’t taken away his reputation, but that’s enough.

Anyway, I’ve collected all of the fame and merit points I was aiming for with this.

“If this is enough, first place in the first season will not be a problem.”

Like the Tower of Proof, the arena also sets the monthly ranking based on the victory points, but it seemed that there would be no problem in achieving first place even if we left as it is.

Even if someone comes in right away, the rank doesn’t match, or even if the rank matches, the matching system will work from then on, and you won’t be able to fill enough points.

Although it is a system that gives infinitely to first-time registrants, even Condol would not have expected that the gap would be this wide.

Rokhan left the arena with an open mind and headed for the heart of Taimura next.

“It’s pretty big for a theme that’s the first city.”

As a city that accommodates all users arriving in the central continent, Taimura was enormous.

It is the third largest among the cities of the Golden Lion camp in the central continent.

Therefore, various quests were prepared to distribute to users, but in fact, it was a trap.

A trap that makes users perceive Taimura as a ‘must stay’.

I don’t know why, but there were quite a few nasty traps like this in The Road.

It may seem like a common setting in an RPG, but in fact you have to do something else to get ahead.

‘Isn’t this right?’Of course, Lokan may be unusual. Right now, even for Lokan, there are still a few quests that need to be received here.

If you didn’t know the future right away, you’d have to do more than a few dozen more quests to find out.

At the same time, he must have carried out quests to create a base so that the people behind him could easily cross over.

But Rokhan had no intention of doing such a good thing.

“Here. I remember.”

It was in the castle located in the heart of Taimura that Rokhan arrived.

Unlike the commercial district where shops are concentrated, the so-called war district where representative institutions of each race and state institutions are concentrated.

Among them, Rokhan entered a place called the ‘Hall of Knights’.

“I want to be promoted to knight rank.”

Rokhan went inside and immediately headed to the reception desk.

In the tertiary city area, the rank was raised through the administration of the conflict zone, but here, the rank can be raised in the ‘barracks’ or ‘the hall of knights’.

And the conditions for advancement from the soldier rank to the knight rank were 2,000 merit points and 2,000 reputation points.

[Check the knight rank promotion conditions.][You have satisfied the conditions for knight rank advancement.]

“You have already met the requirements of a knight. All right, here I swear.”

When the knight guarding the reception desk signed the paper he handed out, he was able to be promoted to the rank of knight very simply.

[You have become a free knight.][A knight is one who serves his master. I hope you find a master to offer your sword to.]

“okay. If there is a master who has decided to become a vassal, you are the first knight among visitors, so I will introduce you as a particularly good person.”

However, raising the rank like this was only half a knight. In order to become a real knight, he had to find a master to offer his sword to and sign the ‘Knight’s Oath’.

Perhaps that’s why the first article title doesn’t appear.

“no. There are people who have decided to serve them.”

That’s why the receptionist’s driver did him a favor, but Lokan politely declined.

If he appealed to the fact that he was the first knight among the visitors, he had an opportunity to enter the rank of least count, or, if he was lucky, a knight of the duke rank, but he decided not to do so.

“I see. Then I wish you good luck.”

He had a regretful expression on his face, but he did not recommend it anymore because forcing a knight who had already decided on a master would be disregarding the opponent and the one who would become the master.

‘Being under the control of a high-class nobleman has many advantages, but it is easy to get caught up in it.’

In particular, the restrictions are more severe if it is an intermediate rank such as a Viscount or Count.

This is because, unlike NPCs whose ranks rarely change, users can quickly raise their ranks.

‘Especially because human aristocrats are not usually greedy.’

If you raise your rank like that, you can become a noble on your own.

The conditions for becoming a nobleman are satisfied, but the master may not want to let him go.

It is possible to persuade him well and achieve independence on the condition that he remains under his command, but there have been many cases where he would continue to rot as a knight or be attacked as soon as he became independent.

So, from the beginning, Lokan had no intention of snoring at all.

After he received the useless knight’s supplies, he left the hall of knights with a sly smile.
