Law of Return Online

To Jacobs surprise, he notices that although the life bar was full of snails and did not show the amount of health he had in numbers, which was normal for him before when he clicked on the life bar, he was able to tell that each snail had an average of 50-60 life.

It wasn exactly tall, but it would need more than 5 hits if it was in his previous life that he only had 8 attacks.

Now with 48 attacks, even if he still can use magic attacks together, he would need at most 2 attacks, which would be gratifying to know.

When holding and crushing the snails, it didn even cross his mind, as that would be even worse, as he would be even more affected by the snails venom and would suffer poisoning several times.

Not that he tried in his other life, however, he found out that someone died trying to finish the mission like this.

”Okay, I can waste time. I need to finish this as soon as possible to avoid others seeing me. ” Jacob muttered in his mind.

Luckily it was very early and this was a less busy street at that time.

Jacob was wearing a hat, although it didn completely hide his face, it was better than not having one. Although there were no people passing by now, and little chance of anyone showing up, just in case they did, he preferred to avoid being recognized later.

Ideally, he would wear a mask or something, however, it wasn something he had in possession at home and he didn even have time to get one or else he would lose the chance to be the first to complete the main quest given by the system.

Just in case, Jacob looked in all directions. Not identifying anyone nearby, he moved!

His target was motionless in the middle of the road inside the hull.

Giving a punch from top to bottom, hitting the shell of the snail.

*Bang!*

[- 41]

Upon seeing the damage appear and seeing the amount he managed to inflict, a smile blossomed on his lips.

”Faster! ”

Upon realizing that the snail was wanting to get out of the shell, he threw another very fast punch.

*Bang!*

”Oh? ” This took him by surprise once again.

Opening the statuses and going to the title bar, he then cleared his doubt. Then thats it…

He hadn stopped to look before, but now that he saw it, he understood. The title gives him 50% bonus experience while equipped.

[You are under the effect of poison]

Jacob sighed. He thought he managed to avoid it, but after looking at the back of his hand, he realized that even a little bit, it had a semi-transparent goo.

While waiting 10 seconds, he picked up the silver coin that dropped.

[- 43]

In big letters, well highlighted, it stayed for two seconds showing that it has risen to level 2 in gold letters.

It only took 7 snails for him to level up.

”Lets continue… ” Despite being happy, Jacob didn want to waste too much time here.

Minutes later…

It didn take even two seconds for the ad to appear globally again.

[Congratulations to Achilles player for being the First Player to complete the 1st main quest. This achievement is engraved on the board of fame for all eternity!]

There was so much new information that Jacob almost felt dizzy.

Unintentionally, he already made the news twice on the same day…

Of course, at first, people didn reveal so much, since everything was new and unknown, however, even after a short time, some have already started to move.

Despite being happy, he was scared at the same time. However, even afraid, knowing that if he was discovered he would be hunted, Jacob does not regret it.

However, that doesn mean he would wait for them to find out, without thinking twice, he grabbed the 20 silver coins that the snails dropped and ran away as quickly as possible.

Upon arriving home, Jacobs heart was racing. But, there was also a smile on his face.

I did it, I really did it! Clenching his hands tightly, he wanted to scream, but he was afraid to attract attention, he lived near the road and had neighbors.

Taking a deep breath, calming his racing heart. Jacob arrived in his room.

Opening the statues, he smiled again.

Hehe, level 4 in the first mission and a big jump in my stats. Despite having the chance of skill drop from killing monsters, he didn feel sad when he didn get any even after killing 20 level 1 snails.

That was just the beginning, sometimes its even necessary to kill more than 1,000 of the same monster to get a single skill.

Now, I have to plan my next steps. Going to the dungeon is out of the question, as the lowest level I know of is level 10. So… The best thing is to enter the labyrinth!

Not only that, he even had a lucky chest. Although the chances of something useful coming along depend a lot on each persons luck.

Without hesitation, he took the lucky chest from the inventory. It was like one of those surprise boxes you find in any toy store, red and well-decorated.

Laying it on the bed, Jacob opened the box.

[Congratulations to the 1st player of the Law of Return who obtained a grand prize from the lucky chest!]

Jacob had no idea what this space in the contract was about, however, the system put emphasis on highlighting it globally, despite not announcing what the item was, which he did, at least that much, as the name itself is too flashy and would bring even more unwanted attention to him.

Opening the inventory, he saw a small miniature island.

Clicking on the item, a new screen appeared:

[You may bind the artifact (Contract Space) with you. Do you want to do it now? Yes – No?]

Despite never having seen it before, or even heard about it, he still clicked yes.

[Congratulations, you have successfully linked Contract Space with you!]

Below, some information appears:

[Contract Space: Increases 50% chance of being able to hire a pet – Pets that stay within the Contract Space gradually improve their bloodline and even have a chance to evolve. Currently, the contractor only has room for two pets.

This is fantastic! Jacob smiled and laughed.

He could imagine that it was something good, however, it was beyond his expectations!

Should I try to hire a pet before entering the maze? A valid question. However, he soon dismissed it.

Although the chances of hiring a pet have increased, it doesn even have a pet ability. It would be difficult without a pet tamer skill.

Ill get a little stronger in the labyrinth first, then Ill try to hire a pet.

Taking the labyrinth key from the inventory, Jacob held the blue crystal key and imagined an invisible door in front of him and made a gesture to try to open it.
