Chapter 14: ch 14
After removing the two hunters, Noah asked a question?
"What was that guys name?"
"Oh, his name was...."
"Ok thanks."
Noah immediately writes the name down while also writing weird guy in parentheses and after a few minutes he forgot the weird guy's name.
'I need to get stronger at a faster rate if I want to protect this shop. Especially if the strength of my customers increases. It is fine now since F rank and E rank abilities and hunters are not really looked at, but I will probably have to deal with small guilds once I can upgrade E rank hunters abilities to D rank. I would need the strength of a C rank before I do this. Man why can't I be invincible in the shop.'
...
After a day of selling Noah sold 24 stat coins, 3 (F) gear, and 6 ability up tickets. He got a new ability called Con up, 5 points in Agi, 10 in Int, and 15 in Con. He then added 7 points to Agi and 20 on Wis, making it the highest it can be for an average (F+) hunter.
When Noah gained Con up he gained a notification
[Attention
Combination possible
Commencing combination
.....
AGI Up, STR Up, CON up have been lost
PHY up gained]
Noah was surprised, Phy up is a valuable ability. It raises the value of a hunter. A B rank hunter with Phy up can be considered as valuable as an A rank hunter with a STR up. Phy up is an ability that allows the hunter to activate Agi up, Str up, and Con at once. This is good for regular hunters as it basically gives them three abilities. This part isn't as useful to Noah, but it is the other advantage that makes it way better than the Str, Agi, and Con up. That is the fact that it cost less to activate individually and when Phy up is activated fully, when all physical attributes are increased, the boost is increase.
For example, if before Noah's Agi up gives him a 20% boost then when Phy up is fully active his Agi is increased by 30%. These strengths can allows a max level (B) rank to fight in an (A) rank portal . Now imagine an (A) rank with this ability.

Noah glanced at his stats
[Noah
lvl:6
Str:28
Agi:36
Con:30
Int:35
Wis:50
stock:
stat coins:146
ability tickets:83
abilities:(F)
Sta:Int up, regeneration
Mp:fire, wind, water, disguise, force, telekinesis
Both:Phy up(3:1 ratio for stamina and mana)
PA: steel body
"All right, now that I have my Wis at the level of what the main stat would be at for a (F+) hunter, I will invest in my other stats now. Specifically on Int and Agi. After those are 50 I will try to make everything else 50."
Noah was destined to kind of be an all rounder. usually hunters wouldn't increase certain stats. A wizard hunter might increase Agi and Con a little, but they wouldn't increase Str as it isn't needed. Same with certain warriors might increasing Wis if their ability takes mana.
A wizard doesn't have to increase Agi and Con a lot as leveling up increases all stat by a miniscule amount. Every 25 levels all stats are given a 10% boost. So a level 100 wizard hunter with 10 agility would be faster than an lvl 10 wizard with 10 agility, but not faster than a hunter with at least 14 points in agility. A wizard could still use their ability like how Noah adds a boost to his speed by concentrating fire to his feet as propulsors to increase mobility.
"I should prioritize Wis, Int, and Agi as I can use my abilities to add more damage. Even then I still have to increase the rest every once in a while." Noah let out a annoyed sigh. "I'm grateful for this ability, but trying to find the best build for this is pretty stressful."
bing
(Sam:Noah we need an extra member for our team, want to join us in a (E) rank portal)
Noah:Yeah, also I can now upgrade (F) rank abilities to (E) rank you should come by.
Sam:😱 What really alright let me buy a ticket. Can we enter a portal in a day or two so I can buy some stuff there.
Noah: sounds good we can enter tomorrow)
Noah got to what is now his house and relaxed on his couch.
Bing
(Sam:Oh yeah, forgot to mention that the (E) rank expedition is in 2 weeks)
'Alright, I have some more time to get ready for this.'
Sam is a hunter with a (E) rank Stat growth and a (F) rank, soon to be (E) rank, ability. He also knows the general level of Noah's strength too. That is why he wants to do an (E) ranked portal and invited Noah. He knows that they both are strong enough and experienced enough to fight in the portal.
Noah ordered some food as he was too tired to make some. He has been going into portals almost once a day everyday for about 3 months. This isn't that much as some hunters go into more than one portal a day, but they don't do this everyday as they need to take a whole day off to recharge themselves and to rid the building portal energy off.
This energy weakens people and are why weaker hunters can not go into high ranked portal as the energy is too thick for them. high ranked hunters aren't as affected by the world energy, exp, reconstructs their bodies making them stronger reducing the effects of the energy. If someone is affected it would take slightly more than a day to get rid of all the energy, unless someone steps into a portal as this will recharge the energy on that person's body.
'Got to get working if I want to be stronger faster...but why do I need to get stronger faster?' Noah pondered why all of a sudden he needs to get stronger. He can still take his time and just not sell higher rank tickets and gear until he is strong enough to deal with forces that covet him. So then why did he think this?
He doesn't really know, but he just has a feeling that if he doesn't work at the pace he is going he will regret it.
{BTW Im starting on the novel I really want to do. The vampire system kind of one. I just published the first chapter and it is called The Human Dragon}
