The Legend of Randidly Ghosthound (The Legend of Randidly Ghosthound, #1)

by Noret Flood

In life, there were no true short-cuts. Or at least no hidden methods that didn’t leave you feeling slimy. The path to true self-improvement was murky and filled with dead ends. There was never any guarantee that effort would be rewarded. But here, with the Skill Levels, although his heart was pounding… Randidly felt anticipation.

Shal burst out laughing, his face once more suffused with a grin. “Let me tell you a secret, kid. When you receive a Class, you’re given a Skill cap. That becomes the maximum number of Skills you can learn. You can keep the Skills you have from before, but it ultimately limits what you can learn afterwards with the System. My cap is twelve, and my Class is rather rare. Yet you have nineteen Skills already…”

“The coloring is something you will come to know as you experience the System. White, Green, Blue, Purple, Red, Orange. Common, Uncommon, Rare, Ancient, Runic, Legendary. These are Rarities; they describe items as well as enemies. There is also Pink, which is Unique, reserved for extremely Rare spawns and the Dungeon Boss. The fact that an Ancient enemy is here, in a Level 35 Dungeon… Well, it must have wandered in from somewhere else. Just like you.

Whatever else I might be, I’m a realist. I’m not going to let ideals stop me from addressing the injustice in front of me.”
