4 CHAPTER 4: Rewards
Happy reading!
============
Ethan, who was now walking forward, immediately stopped in his tracks, once again he saw a large place like before.
'Even if you see this scene more than a few times, this place really is like a fantasy story...' Ethan thought to himself as he continued his steps towards where the monster was.
'No, forget this for now, I will focus on defeating the basilisk first, then after that I will kill the little red rabbit and immediately finish the tutorial.' he muttered to himself, with his sharp gaze continuing to walk until he was in front of the monster.
"Hey, we meet again, damn bastard! This time I won't be hit by your poison a second time again." Ethan said to the monster as he stepped into its territory. The basilisk immediately became furious when it saw Ethan once again trespass into its territory.
"Hiss!!-"
He immediately turned towards the monster in front of him which was now lunging towards him.
"huft-" Ethan immediately took another breath, after that he gripped the hilt of his sword tightly, then he immediately grabbed the monster's head which was now very close to him.
Ethan planned to jump on top of the monster, that way he could attack the monster easily even if it flew.
Feeling there was a human above his head, the basilisk immediately flew into the sky while moving his whole body which made Ethan suddenly become very dizzy and almost vomit.
"h-huek-"
'Damn, I didn't expect it to be this difficult...' he muttered to himself as he continued to hold the sword in his right hand and prepared to stab the monster in the eye once again.
Yes, because our protagonist has died once, the creature automatically returns to normal.
Of course the memories are still there, after all that creature was the guardian of the first floor, plus he was also the monster in this tutorial.
So don't be surprised if the memories are still there and will not disappear.
"squirt-"
After he continued trying hard to pierce the monster's eyes, he finally succeeded in doing so, causing the monster to land downwards slowly.
"HISSS!!!-" the monster who was initially so angry, suddenly became very angry when he felt his left eye being stabbed again by the same person.
Seeing the anger of the creature beneath him, Ethan didn't waste this opportunity because the monster no longer moved its body left and right.
"Blind damn monster!" Ethan shouted at the monster while continuing to stab its right eye, feeling that both eyes could no longer be used, immediately making the basilisk unable to do anything else except just give up and accept its fate.
Without thinking twice, Ethan immediately stabbed the monster's entire body from head to tail while continuing to thrust his sword into its body.
Purple blood suddenly poured out non-stop when Ethan finished his attack, he felt a little disgusted but it wasn't because of the blood but rather the organs inside the basilisk which were so disgusting.
Before Ethan could move away from the corpse, he suddenly stopped as he looked at the pink panel in front of him once again.
[Congratulations, Host has successfully killed the first floor guard, rewards will be awarded.]

[2. A feature called Lucky Coins has been unlocked. The way to get these coins is that the host can get them by killing various other living creatures or completing daily quests and missions that will be given by the system.]
[3. Because the host already has mana energy in your body, the system will automatically give you free skills. Please press here to accept it.]
Ethan immediately saw that there was a button that said 'accept' there. Knowing that he would be given a skill by the system, he immediately chose to accept it without a second thought.
[Congratulations, Host has acquired the Mind Control Skill.]
[Mind Control: The function of this skill is that it can control a person's mind no matter whether it is a man or a woman, but this skill still has a weakness, namely that it cannot control the mind of anyone who does not have any feelings for host unless that person has an impression something deep like hatred or liking towards you.]
His face immediately became very happy when he saw the information about the skill he had just obtained.
"Wow! With me having this skill, it is certain that this will be the start of my debut to become a harem king!" shouted our protagonist excitedly while imagining a picture where he would be surrounded by beautiful women in his arms.
[uh... Host, I still have other additional features, so can you please get out of that stupid mind?]
Seeing the notification somehow made him a little annoyed with her, but he quickly restrained himself and asked her about what other features he would get. "So what features will you show me again?"
[Unlocks a new feature called 'beauty' for its function please see below the description.]
Suddenly a button that said 'see' appeared on the screen, because Ethan was curious about information about that, he immediately pressed the button.
[Beauty is a new feature that the host will get, its function is that the host will be able to improve your face to be much more handsome than your current self.]
[As for the way to increase the host's handsomeness, the condition is that you must continue to increase your level, and you can also have sex with the women that the host will conquer!]
Ethan immediately froze because he was shocked by the notification. He didn't expect that his mediocre face could be improved one day.
"d-does this really exist? System, tell me if this is not a dream!" he shouted with a teary face, but it wasn't because he felt sadness but rather a happiness that he never expected at all.
[Because the host told me to, get ready!]
After that, Ethan felt a slap land on his cheek which made him fall while holding his face.
"Fuck! I didn't tell you to slap my cheeks!" he shouted with a very annoyed face at the system, even though he was a little confused the system somehow managed to hit him but he immediately ignored it.
After all, it was a system that could appear anywhere and at any time if needed, so Ethan just thought it was natural.
[but the host told me to do it! So you have absolutely no right to blame me anymore!]
"..." Ethan immediately fell silent for a few seconds when he saw that the system's answer was correct.
"You're right... Next time I won't order you to do something like this!" He said to the system while standing up from the floor with his face showing slight regret for his request to the system.
[...]
saw that the system didn't answer his words at all. This suddenly made him a little disappointed, before he was about to walk forward, he immediately stopped when he remembered his sword which was still stuck in the basilisk's body.
"ah, sorry I forgot you." he muttered as he walked up the body of the large monster, after finishing taking his sword he immediately got off and continued walking towards the large gate in front of him.
"So that's the gate to the first floor?" he muttered as he looked around and he was a little relieved that he didn't see the skull creature again, although he was a little disappointed that he couldn't get any more free experience.
"Never mind, this tutorial will be over soon so I have to get to the first floor and go home!" he shouted excitedly, then he immediately ran forward with his improved physique.
He immediately noticed when he felt his entire body become a little lighter, so he assumed that this was all due to the system's improvement.
'Very good! With this, even if I encounter such a monster once again, I will still be able to deal with it easily!' He muttered with a big smile on his face.
After walking for a few steps, he immediately stopped in front of the gate. And the notification once again appeared.
[Congratulations, Host. You have passed the trial to the first floor. Please take this key and insert it into the iron door.]
Reading the information from the system and seeing a large key appear and fall to the ground, without thinking he immediately picked it up with both hands while leaving his sword stuck in the ground.
Then he immediately put the big key into the gate hole with both hands.
"uh... The key is also big, but it can still be held with two hands." Ethan muttered, complaining a little about the key the system had just given him, which was quite large.
After he put the key into the big gate, Ethan immediately turned it.
After a few moments passed, the door immediately opened as if it had been split in two.
Then he saw there were stairs leading to the basement.
[As long as the host sets foot on the first floor, then the host has officially completed this first tutorial.]
Seeing the system inform him of new information, immediately made him very happy and without hesitation he immediately walked towards the depths of the stairs.
*tap* *tap* *tap*
Ethan, who had been walking for several minutes, immediately stopped when he saw land that was almost the same as when he first set foot here.
"Finally! I arrived here after continuing to walk down many stairs." he shouted while taking a few breaths then he immediately ran with an impatient face. Ethan, who had reached the foot of the first floor, immediately looked around and this immediately shocked him.
"W-what is this place?! How can a place that was originally small become so big... Even the sky shows a red moon above it..." Ethan, who was now very shocked, suddenly realized when he saw a pink screen written in front of him.
[I congratulate the host for reaching the first floor which is nicknamed the beginning of everything.]
"What do you mean by 'the beginning of everything', can you explain it to me a little?" He asked the system with an expression full of confusion with the name of this floor.
[of course I will explain, this floor was once inhabited by creatures from another world but due to an accident, this place was abandoned and only various other mindless living creatures remained.]
[And also this is the floor that the gods first created, and it dates back thousands of years.]
Seeing the system explanation in front of him immediately made him very, very surprised by what he had just found out.
"No way... System, are you saying this place wasn't like this before?" Seeing the question from his master, the system immediately answered his confusion with a long text that made Ethan a little dizzy.
[Yes, what the host thinks is right, but on the other hand you are also wrong.]
[This place used to be huge, but because other beings like gods from other worlds came here, we gods had to step in to chase them away.]
[but after the battle continued for over hundreds of years, with our side winning this war, but unfortunately we had to suffer huge losses that required this place to be divided into 10 floors.]
[Therefore, if the host sets foot from the 2nd to the 10th floor, the name of the place will remain the same, the only difference is the place.]
He, who had finished reading the explanation from the system, immediately digested it in his mind while closing his eyes.
Luckily, Ethan's intelligence stats increased, allowing him to remember more things in his head.
