Battle of Ascension

Chapter 13: Treasure Chest, Ascension Chest



The next morning, at 8 am

"Randy! Randy! Wake up! You'll go hunting today, right? wake up and eat breakfast before you go?" Almira shouted from outside Randy's room, knocking on his door.

Randy opened his eyes lazily, yesterday he was exhausted fighting against the Queen of Demonic Rabbit, so he slept very well and fell asleep until 8 am; not doing the usual morning practice he always did.

Then he headed to the bathroom to wash up, after which he came out of the room. At the table had been served breakfast, Mom and Dad already sat at the table enjoying eating their breakfast.

Randy joined his father and his mother eating breakfast together. In the middle of breakfast, Randy asked his father,

"Dad, how much money have you got to open a restaurant?"

Hearing Randy's question, Wisen put his spoon and answered Randy question with a sigh, "I only managed to gather 21 Gold and 55 Silver this week"

Randy also sighed after hearing his father's reply, "I only managed to get 9 Gold during the hunt this week too, we still need very much money to open a restaurant at the entrance of the Guild Area"

"That's okay, we gather the money slowly, my [Basic Cooking] level also still too low to open a restaurant, so the food I make is still mediocre, nothing special. You guys gather the money slowly and I will raise my [Basic Cooking] level "Almira comforting her son and husband.

"Yeah we just do it slowly" Randy and Wisen nodded their heads, "What about the place, mom? Has anyone opened a restaurant or has someone rented a shop at the entrance of the Guild Area?" Randy asked his mother

"No" Almira shook her head, "But someone has opened a restaurant next to the Adventure Guild."

"What!?" Randy and Wisen were surprised. The rent price next to Adventure Guild is the most expensive, 1000 Gold Coin per month.

"Yeah, you guys did not hear wrong. At the Adventure Guild, there's been a restaurant opened and not just one restaurant but two. At the right of Adventure Guild the name of the restaurant is "Chinese Cuisine" and to the left of the restaurant name is "Japanese Food" " Almira explained to his husband and son.

"Oh, I've heard gossip about the conflict between China and Japan, a group from China led by the Long Family and people from Japan led by the Tokugawa Family. They compete to be the strongest in East City, so it's likely that the one opened this restaurant is the person from both sides "Wisen replied," It's natural for them to be able to open a restaurant next to the Adventure Guild, they can gather 1000 Gold Coins easily"

The appearance of Almira's face does not change, her appearance is like saying 'I already know this'. Unlike the Almira, Randy is shocked when he hears this from his father because he knows nothing. Randy every day is always hunting alone and he only comes in contact with his mother, his father and Auntie Hellen, and he also rarely sees East City Forum. He only sees East City Forum if there's something he needs or finds out something, so Randy does not know about the conflict between China and Japan.

Then Randy shook his head, wherever there was always competition. Prior to the Battle of Ascension, the big nations competed in economics, technology, and military. Now they are competing in strength.

They change the subject of their conversation because they do not want to get involved in any conflict, they just want to live in peace and happiness.

They have not aware that peace and happiness come from strength.

After breakfast Wisen and Randy say goodbye to Almira and go hunting.

Upon arriving in Jakarta, Randy immediately used his point skill to raise Shana level to level 10.

------------------------------------------------

After raised Shana level to level 10, Randy's remaining skill points are only 2 left.

"Shana, I've raised your level to level 10. Now tell me how to use Luck to make me strong, I hope you do not disappoint me" Randy immediately asked Shana after he raised Shana level to level 10.

"Don't worry Master, I will not disappoint the Master, how can I possibly bear to disappoint Master, cluck cluck cluck...." Suddenly Shana appeared in front of Randy's face with a smile and a chuckle.

Randy was surprised. Shana who usually spoke in flat tone and face without expression, now she smiles and makes a small laugh.

"Y-You .... can smile and laugh?" Randy asked Shana

"Of course, I was created based on human being, so the higher my level, the more I will be like human beings, I will become more intelligent, able to have emotions and other human characteristics" Shana explained to Randy with her cute smile.

Randy felt like pinching Shana's cheeks when she smiled.

Then Randy goes back to the main topic.

"So how to use Luck to make me strong?"

"Ah, Master you are so impatient. Before I tell you another way to use Luck, I want to tell you a secret that only Ai Helper knows" Shana replied Randy with a mysterious smile.

"Oh, what's that?" Randy became curious. A secret is known only to Ai Helper.

"Treasure chest!" Shana said proudly, "There are all sorts of chests, common chests, bronze chests, silver chests, gold chests and the rarest Legendary chest ..."

Randy interrupts Shana's explanation about the treasure chest, "Wait wait, What does a treasure chest have to do with Luck?"

"Master you do not cut my explanation, just listen to me finished my explanation" Shana pouted unhappily because Randy cut off her conversation.

Randy is helpless with this cute Ai and nods his head, "Alright alright, go on"

Then Shana continued happily, "The rarest Legendary chest, but actually, the highest grade and the rarest chest is not Legendary chest"

Up here, Randy became interested again and could not bear asking, "What's the higher grade and rarer than the Legendary chest?"

Seeing Randy interested again, Shana is proud and happy, "Mythical Chest is a higher grade chest than Legendary Chest and Ascension Chest is the rarest chest than Legendary Chest."

"Then what does the chest have to do with using Luck to make me strong?" Randy is confused by the explanation of Shana

"Of course there is a connection between Luck and chest, Master will use Luck to find the chest" Shana replied with a laugh.

Randy's eyes shone as Shana said that he can use Luck to search for the chest.

"Oh I know, so I use Luck to find a mythical chest?" Randy imagines when he opens the Mythical chest and gets the best equipment makes him drooling.

But Shana destroyed Randy's imagination with her cute smile: "Master is half right, half wrong. Master is right, using Luck looking for a chest but not Mythical chest but Ascension chest. There is only 100 Ascension Chest in the world and 25 chests on every continent, so Master uses Luck for looking for Ascension chest in Asia Continent "

"Eh, why Ascension chest? Why not Mythical chest? Is not Mythical the highest grade chest among the other chests?" Randy becomes confused again with Shana explanation.

"Of course the Master can search for Mythical chest if Master wants to, but can Master get Mythical chest? Every Mythical chest guarded by Saint Beast and Divine Beast." Shana explained Randy confusion with her cute smile.

Randy swallowed his saliva when he heard Shana explanation. Saint Beast? Divine Beast? even uncommon beast alone I was overwhelmed against it let alone Saint Beast or Divine Beast, maybe by sneezing I'll die.

"What about the Ascension Chest? What kind of beast guarded Ascension chest?" Randy asked Shana nervously.

See Randy become nervous, Shana giggled, "Don't worry Master, there is no Beast guarding Ascension chest. Ascension chest can be said is a bonus chest for human for beginning Battle of Ascension, so there is no beast guarding the Ascension chest"

Randy relieved, "So how do I use Luck to find Ascension chest and what can I get from opening Ascension chest?"

"It's very easy, Master just need to activate hidden stats and thinking in the mind to searching location of the Ascension chest that is closest to Master so the closest Ascension chest location will appear on the map" Shana tells Randy how to use Luck to find Ascension chest, "I do not know what's inside Ascension chest, but Master does not have to worry because Master has Luck "

Then Randy activates Luck and thinks in his mind to find the location the Ascension chest, after which he immediately looks at the map.

There is a chest symbol appearing on Randy's map, this chest is in the south direction of Jakarta.

"Wow, it's not too far from here," Randy exclaimed.

Then he immediately closed his mouth with his hand and looked around. Randy is relieved there is no one noticed him or heard his words because this chest beside could make him strong but could also make him in danger if someone knows he can find the chest location with his hidden stats.

Then he looked at the map again, about 10-20 kilometers away or maybe further to the south of Jakarta. He does not know the exact distance because he has never gone further than the outskirt of Jakarta.

Randy immediately put on his equipment and took a deep breath, then he walked out of Jakarta to where the Ascension chest was.
