[Level >]
Muhaha!
Wihaha!
Nuhaha!
Seth's hysterical laughter attracted the atttion of the people a. Without asking the reason, the closest village guard clched his fist and punched Seth in the gut.
Ewe!

Health: Normal > In-pain

Seth's status changed immediately and he felt dizzy. After his mind regained clarity he found himself in a cell.
The place was damp and there were other players in other cells.
'Damn! I forget the game is not 'Mass Hysteria Game'
Mass Hysteria was a game that featured a bunch of Evil Gods. In the game, Seth was a notorious Warlock named Madness Overlord.
He took a certain Maniacal Entity as his Patron. The tity was known for his laughter wherever he wt and also required his followers to do the same.
Another thing about the Maniacal Entity was that it rewarded its followers handsomely. Most of their loots after killing beasts and monsters were abundant.
So wh Seth saw his Staff Aspects he did not know wh he started laughing just like in Mass Hysteria.
Thankfully, the game was banned after only four months. As the Maniacal Entity wasn't the only Mad Entity that make his followers due to stupid things in public and grown-ups claimed it destroyed their kid's morals.
Seth took his time analyzing some hidd rules of the game he unearthed. Wh the Guards kicked him, he was supposed to receive a Quest. That was according to that player. But he did not get any, which made Seth understand Quest gerated will be differt for everyone.
Perhaps according to one's ability.
Those with normal body constitution would have be giv the quest to train at the Village Barrack. But Seth's constitution was very poor, which made him unsuitable for the training. So the game did not bother to give him the usual Quest.
Seth wondered if blind, deaf or other people with disorders were able to play the game?
"I should call this Capability Limitations"
It was the same Capability Limitations that made Seth unable to Imagine a Sword during the First Trial. It was unsuccessful because of the following Capability Limitation.
. The Swords he imagined needed two hands to wield.
. To wield a Sword one needs him to stand firm on the g.
3. Seth doesn't have the power and strgth to swing.
The above is beyond his capability. He did imagine other medieval weapons. But nothing suits his weak constitution.
Seth's only oversight was that he did not think of the possibility of technological devices. Though there might be ev more requiremts for Tech-device.
That means one must know or understand the blueprint of the tech one wished to imagine. Those that imagine Tank, Guns, RPG or similar things must have known the tech in and out to bring it forth.
Anna has it easy. Shield name implies the ability to defd against incoming attacks. After that, Anna was able to imagine her Shield capable of defding against differt Dragons' attacks.
Sam Sword followed the same logic. With a trick, a Sword can recharge and attack. It has be done before.
Seth couldn't imagine any until he made a Staff. A Staff that can help him walk a. And everything that Seth added to the Staff was an offshoot of what it originally meant to do.
Seth did get his inspiration from Anna as he saw how well she improved the side ability of her Shield.
In that short period, he imagined his Staff to have various aspects with various traits that will support him ev with his weak constitution.
More than that he ev set conditions that if things change about him th he can change something from the Staff Aspects.
What stopped him from further adjusting his Staff was the shattering of Annas' Shield and her subsequt death. And also Sam followed her.
After that Seth has to be on the lookout and hope for his Aspects to work.
"Despite the fact I only used two aspects in the First Trial, all the other Aspects have followed it. The only downside was that the Staff was greatly nerfed. That is, I can only use % of its actual prowess."
"Actually, it was understandable. The Trial was a test of our imagination and reaction to sudd danger. And the ability of the things we imagined was full-time high, capable of going against the danger, albeit barely."
Seth caressed his Staff, which was of the same height as him. And a smile couldn't stop from being plastered on his face.

>Activating this attribute will create fear in the survivors of the strike!
_________
Muhaha!
Wuhaha!
"I'm the ragon slayer, '' Seth shouted. He refused to say Dragon directly.
Due to greed, Seth began to think what if he really killed that dragon. What kind of attribute will he get?
"Anna was the luckiest of us. She tank all the dragon attacks with the exception of Terror Dragon. I wonder how strong her Shield Attribute will be.
Hahaha. Sam too, face off against a fucking Dragon. He strikes it down after absorbing ergy from other dragon attacks.
The Gre Dragon was st flying a hundred meters away with an awful injury to the chest. How strong will his Sword be ev after being nerfed?"
Muhaha!
Just the unpredictability of the game made Seth's blood boil with excitemt.
