Chapter 140: New Powers!
—
'A Tier Potion...'
Neji was pretty baffled. Because he already received Exp for the kill, gaining 3 levels and therefore reaching level 141. So why was there a Tier potion too? That's like paying double for a single job.
"System, any explanation?"
Hearing his question, the system's reply came.
[This should be happening because of his Main Character title. Calculations aren't going to match up, because this is a very specific exception.]
"...Does that mean whoever drinks this will become the new Main Character?" Neji couldn't help but ask.
[I don't think so. Main Characters aren't chosen based on such a potion. Instead, the Will of a World chooses a champion based on its preferences. Most of the time, the World already has thought of secondary characters who can replace the deceased Main Character at a moment's notice. I suppose you can already guess who that is in this world, right?]
Neji nodded. It's clearly Mirio Togata, no doubt. Though it'd have been great if he could drink the Potion and receive the world's blessing or something, or rather make one of his girls drink it since The Gamer can't consume a Tier Potion.
But it is what it is.
Neji was about to pick up the potion and use ⟨Observe⟩ on it, but a system prompt appeared in front of him.
[Sorry for the delay master, but I have something you'll like.]
[You have not only gone actively against a Main Character but have hammered the final nail by killing him! Requirements have been met, and you have gained the perk, "Main Character Slayer"!]
[Main Character Slayer:
-The Will of a World would have its negative effects lessened against you, and therefore wouldn't be able to make your life deliberately harder unless it uses its Main Character against you!
-All Stats gain a 30% boost when fighting a world's Main Character!
-Bonus Perk, tailored based on the current Gamer's preferences: If the main character is a female, 50% boost in any seduction techniques! (The previous bonuses still apply!)]
"Uh..."
Neji was feeling excited seeing the first two points, but after seeing the third one...
"System, do I seem like a pervert to you?"
[Absolutely not, sir. Perverts can't seduce women, most of them just peek at women bathing and stop there. I believe "Manwhore" is the correct term here.]
"..."
Neji decided to pretend he never heard those words.
'Anyway. This was a pretty good Perk, very useful. A 30% stat boost was tremendous.' Happy with what he got, he was finally about to check the Potion but he was forced to delay it again...
On the ground, beside the potion, a new item had materialised.
A golden orb named [Power Orb].
[Power Orb: An Orb that can grant a random superpower.
-Rare item, dropped because of the death of a Main Character.]
