Chapter 3: Chapter 3: On that Grind!
Artoria and Goku stood there motionless, both with looks of focus on their faces. Both in her stances with their respective weapons.
*Clang!* In an instant both got to each other sword clashing against pole arm. A small shockwave resounded.
Artoria was slowly but surely pushing Goku back, she still had the advantage in strength after all.
The two then separated, but just as fast they went in for a second blow. "Extend!" shouted Goku as the pole did so Artoria was able to dodge by ducking and maneuvering around Goku, she was going for another attack, but Goku barely dodged and tried countering with kick.
Artoria shifted her head as the kick passed over her head smoothly, Goku was able to regain his footing though and kept on the offensive but used the power pole's length to keep her away as he tried to deal damage from a distance.
He knows Artoria is stronger than him, so he needs to use his head, but all of a sudden Artoria disappeared and arrived behind him with her sword at his neck.
"It seems I win Goku." said Artoria with a beaming smile. 'She is too cute for her own good!' He thought as [Gamers Mind] erased his blush before it could even erupt on his face.
"*Sigh!* Yeah It's your win, though you'll need to learn some hand to hand combat, you can't always rely on your noble phantasm." Said Goku.
"I see, so now what?" she asked, then I begun to think I already have [ ID Create] and [ID Exit].
But I want to gain access to my ki. I used it when I first used [Brick Break] so maybe I'll focus on that feeling.
"Why don't you rest for now I'm going to try something." She nodded and went inside the hut. While I went under the shade of a tree and and started meditating.
[New Skill Acquired - Meditation- [Active] -(1/100) - Calms the mind and helps Ki and Mp regeneration by 1%]
Not bad I then tried to focus on the feeling from when I first used my skill and there it was, my Ki pool. I then tried to tug on it, and slowly concentrated a small amount of it to my hand, opening my eyes I see a small ball of energy floating in my hand.
[New Skill Acquired - Ki Control - [Active] -(1/100) - Helps in the Manipulation of your ki.]
Not bad, I should probably practice, but I don't know any ki manipulation exercises.....For now I'll just wing it, I'll just teach Artoria how unlock hers later.
- Later -
"Yeah just like that." Artoria is now currently in her dress as all her armour is currently inside. She was now in a meditative position. I was able to help her unlock her ki but it took over two hours!
I'm not very good at explaining these things, but I got the skill [Teaching].
Still though I have five days to prepare for the cluster fuck that's gonna happen. The fight with Artoria was eye opening to say the least, she outclassed me in speed power and strength. I need to get stronger.
[New Quest - On that Grind! You realized you are nothing but an ant in the face giants you'll face down the line.
Objective:Get to level 10 before Bulma arrives.
Reward: Silver Gacha Token \ 550 Shop Point's \ Random Skill Book
Failure: To Get to Level 10]
I guess I'll be using the IDs then. So I tried to use my [ID Create:Empty]. Honestly it was super easy barely an inconvenience.
And as I did the world slowed down around me, no not that's how I should put it, it became silent. I couldn't hear the slight rustling in the bushes, the chirps of the birds or the wind blowing along with the trees, it like I was only living being in the world. I honestly bet if it weren't for [Gamer's Mind] I'd probably go insane.
"Well let's get grinding! [ID Exit]" I said as I the world cracked like glass and broke apart revealing a Artoria who was worried.
"Goku where were you?!" she asked worried. "Sorry that was skill I got, I should probably tell you about the boons I've gotten."
"Boons?" So I explained to her what a gamer system is but she didn't understood it much but rolled with it.
So I spent the next hour raising [ID Create], [ID Exit] is already MAX.
[ID Create is now level 3 You've unlocked Puppet ID]
"Finally I can begin leveling up!" I cheered, honestly this was a pain in the ass [ID Create] Cost 10 MP I just have I had to wait for it to regen!
"Artoria let's go!" I told her, she was practicing with her sword and nodded before sheathing. She grabbed on to my shoulder as we disappeared and arrived somewhere it was brick walls with cracks and vines around I tried looking up but it was stone.
"Goku look there's a hallway." Said Artoria "Let's go then." We both head out of the room and a notification showed up.
[You've just left the safe zone]
So that was a safe zone good to know. Up ahead was a few puppets they had wooden.

I could see their name tags but I used Observe and saw.

Not much but okay "Artoria I'll take him in okay?" She nodded and decided to step back. "Don't make me wait too long I want to fight too!" she says excitedly.
I used [Sprint] towards the puppet and destroyed the puppet before it could even go on guard.
"Let's go deeper in these guys won't get any stronger for a while." I told her as she nods with a smile as we run off into the dungeon.
