[ Main Quest I: Become a knight for one of the five royal candidates. ]
[ Quest Description: The Royal Selection of the Kingdom of Lugnica has officially begun, and the five candidates are recruiting their respective knights. Please choose one and participate in the Royal Selection as a knight. ]
[ Quest Reward: Random Anime Female Character Skill × 1, or Random Equipment × 1, or Mysterious Potion × 1 (Choose one) ]
[ Gold Reward: 1,000,000 ]
[ Notes: The skill pool includes but is not limited to—Misaka Mikoto’s “Railgun”, Tokisaki Kurumi’s “Zafkiel”, Shana’s “Heaven and Earth’s Calamity”, Artoria’s “Excalibur”, Esdeath’s “Demon’s Extract”, Boa Hancock’s “Mero Mero no Mi”, Erza’s “Requip Magic”, Tatsumaki’s “Psychokinesis”… ]
“The skill pool is quite luxurious.”
Theresia blinked her beautiful eyes, looking at the long list of skills, and couldn’t help but feel a sense of anticipation.
Just drawing one of these skills, like Railgun, Excalibur, or the Mero Mero no Mi, would instantly double one’s combat power.
“Although I’m already strong enough now, who doesn’t want to be stronger? Besides, just the names alone are explosively cool.”
Then, Theresia scrolled down further.
[ Main Quest II: Subjugate the White Whale. ]
[ Quest Description: The “White Whale”, one of the three great mabeasts, is rampaging within the territory of the Kingdom of Lugnica, posing a serious threat to trade routes and surrounding villages. Please proceed to subjugate it. ]
[ Quest Reward: Random Anime Female Character Skill × 1, or Random Equipment × 1, or Mysterious Potion × 1 (Choose one) ]
[ Gold Reward: 1,000,000 ]
“The skill pool is full of skills from female characters. Since I’m a female character drawing skills for female characters, that’s perfectly fine.”
Theresia looked at the main quest rewards, deep in thought.
“Anyway, this account was female to begin with, but why does it feel like the system is deliberately causing trouble…”
[ Main Quest III: Kill the Sin Archbishop of Sloth—Petelgeuse Romanee-Conti. ]
[ Quest Description: The Sin Archbishop of the Witch Cult, “Sloth”, is operating in the Mathers domain, posing a direct threat to Emilia and everyone in the mansion. Please kill him. ]
[ Quest Reward: Random Skill Upgrade Book × 1 ]
[ Gold Reward: 2,000,000 ]
[ Notes: A Skill Upgrade Book can strengthen any owned skill to the next stage. ]
“Huh… skill strengthening?”
Theresia’s eyes brightened even more, her azure eyes looking as if two little stars had lit up within them.
How to continue increasing strength after reaching max level has always been a major problem.
In her previous life, the dog developers in games did the exact same thing.
Once the level is capped, they open skill strengthening; once skill strengthening is done, they open equipment promotion; once equipment promotion is done, they open exclusive weapon awakening.
In short, they find ways to make you keep grinding.
“I didn’t expect that even after transmigrating to another world, I still couldn’t escape this routine. Damn dog developers!”
After fiercely complaining, Theresia continued to scroll down through the main quests.
[ Main Quest IV: Kill the Sin Archbishop of Greed—Regulus Corneas. ]
[ Quest Status: Locked (Unlocks after completing Quests I, II, and III) ]
[ Quest Reward:??? ]
[ Gold Reward:??? ]
[ Main Quest V: Subjugate the Great Rabbit. ]
[ Quest Status: Locked (Unlocks after completing Quests I, II, and III) ]
[ Quest Reward:??? ]
[ Gold Reward:??? ]
There was a long row of greyed-out, locked main quests following, and just counting them, there were dozens.
Most of them were high-difficulty tasks like subjugating Sin Archbishops of the Witch Cult, killing mabeasts, or resolving kingdom crises.
“As expected of the inertia of a max-level mobile game.”
Theresia finished scrolling through the quest list and couldn’t help but complain.
You have to know, in her past life in the Re:Zero mobile game, the developers were the same; after hitting max level, they started piling on new systems.
Skill strengthening, equipment promotion, exclusive awakening, and then opening higher difficulty dungeons—it was a never-ending cycle.
Theresia had spent over a hundred thousand in cash just to keep up with the version progress.
Now that she had transmigrated to another world, she actually still had to continue doing quests.
However, that said, these rewards were indeed very tempting.
The signature skills of those anime female characters in the skill pool—drawing any one of them would be a qualitative change.
Plus, there were Skill Upgrade Books and Mysterious Potions.
Although she didn’t know what effects the random equipment and Mysterious Potions had, anything that could be placed alongside Skill Upgrade Books and random skills as a reward certainly wouldn’t be ordinary.
“Oh right, there are also many side quests here.”
Besides the main quests, Theresia also found a side quest list.
[ Side Quest I: Defeat Natsuki Subaru. ]
[ Quest Description: Have a friendly spar with Natsuki Subaru and win. ]
[ Quest Reward: Gold × 10, Random Consumable × 1 ]
[ Notes: A weakling with a combat power of five, go easy on him. Well, with the host’s strength, even going easy would be a total crush. ]
[ Side Quest II: Defeat Rem. ]
[ Quest Description: Have a spar with the Roswaal mansion maid Rem and win. ]
[ Quest Reward: Gold × 30,000, Oni Clan Secret Medicine × 1 ]
[ Notes: A cute blue-haired maid with an extremely tenacious fighting spirit. The more disadvantaged she is, the more astonishing combat power she can unleash. After winning, remember to treat her to sweets, otherwise you might be held a grudge against for a whole year. ]
[ Side Quest III: Defeat Ram. ]
[ Quest Description: Have a spar with the Roswaal mansion maid Ram and win. ]
[ Quest Reward: Gold × 20,000, Wind Magic Scroll × 1 ]
[ Notes: Ram’s horn is broken, so her strength is severely impaired. Do not show off. ]
[ Side Quest IV: Defeat Roswaal. ]
[ Quest Description: Have a serious spar with the court mage Roswaal L. Mathers. ]
[ Quest Reward: Gold × 50,000, Magic Talent Awakening Stone × 1 ]
[ Notes: Don’t be fooled by his clown makeup; this guy is very cunning. He might have hidden traps in some spell. It is recommended to cast a magic immunity shield on yourself before the fight starts to avoid getting shown up by his flashy performance. ]
[ Side Quest V: Defeat Wilhelm. ]
[ Quest Description: Have a swordsmanship spar with the Sword Demon Wilhelm van Astrea. ]
[ Quest Reward: Gold × 50,000, Swordsmanship Mastery Scroll × 1 ]
[ Notes: The old man is getting on in years, please go easy on him. However, given the old man’s personality, he would probably be happy even if he lost. ]
