MMORPG: Rise of the Primordial Godsmith

\'Some of the things? If only you knew how much I know about you...\' Briefly flashing a bitter smile at Jekyll\'s words, Valyr still could not get over the fact the man in front of him, the man who he only thought of someone who\'d give him [Gambler\'s Discerning Eyes], was actually the man he idolized during Greater Beyond\'s first version.

\'To think I would actually meet my idol here in person,\' muttered Valyr to himself inwardly. \'Then again, considering this knowledge, I\'ve met him in my past life as well.\'

\'Fate truly works in mysterious ways.\'

Back in his past life, Valyr was told by some of his friends that he could get a passive skill that boosted his PER from a random NPC. During that time, the War of the Three Sovereignties had been declared officially over, which meant that all of the players were now preparing themselves for Greater Beyond\'s second version.

Wanting to prepare for the second version, just like the others, he went ahead and made a visit to Anadhar to claim the skill, only to be told that the number of people that had obtained the skill had already far exceeded his limit.

Surprisingly, the one who told him that was none other than Jekyll, who not only had a head full of gray hair in his past life thanks to the aftereffects of the war, but also looked more emaciated to the Jekyll he was currently facing.

Because of that, he truly believed that Jekyll was just a random NPC, being an owner of a gambling den that seemed to have a deeper past than what one would normally expect.

However, after Jekyll mentioned that he was the Northern Star, that notion swiftly disappeared in Valyr\'s mind, instead thinking that Jekyll giving a passive skill and legacy that ultimately boosted his PER stat was in line with his past.

And his future for that matter.

Now, one might ask... who really was the Northern Star?

From what Valyr could remember, the Northern Star was considered a war hero by the human race, having defended multiple areas on his own during the worst of the monster tides.

Aside from that, he played a vital role in a large-scale war in the past that embroiled multiple human kingdoms and orc kingdoms, single-handedly turning the tides around that allowed the human race to keep the territory the orcs decided to claim out of nowhere.

Then again, that was not the reason why Valyr was incredibly shocked to hear the moniker come out of Jekyll\'s mouth. Instead, it was the connection the moniker Jekyll mentioned to another moniker Valyr grew up to idolize.I think you should take a look at

The Silver Death.

\'One arrow to kill a foe, ten arrows to kill them all.\' With one of the Silver Death\'s famous lines lingering in his mind, Valyr began to recall all of the feats the Silver Death had achieved in his past life, his expression basically glowing with excitement at this point.

\'A war veteran that has decided to give up the life of battle after a life-changing incident, the Silver Death returned to the battlefield after the War of the Three Sovereignties erupted in full force.\'

\'With great speeds, the Silver Death became one of the many pillars of the human race during the time of war, killing all of the human race\'s strongest foes with a single shot from his trusted bow and arrow.\'

\'Being at the forefront of the battlefield, it was said that many of those in the orc and elf races feared facing up against the Silver Death, claiming that even if they hid from the man\'s field of vision, they would still end up dying from his arrow.\'

\'One arrow for one life, ten arrows for ten lives, and a hundred arrows for a bloodbath.\' Realizing that Jekyll was looking at him with an expression that expressed his discomfort, Valyr took in a couple of deep breaths to compose himself, retracting the feverish gaze that he unknowingly had on his face all this time.

\'No matter what kind of foe he faced against in the battlefield, they would all fall on the ground after getting hit from a single shot of his bow and arrow.\' At this point, Valyr let out a faint sigh as he felt a smile gradually creep up onto his lips. \'That feat also became the basis of his ascension, transcending mortality and becoming a Myth, which only made him a far scarier foe in the battlefield.\'

\'Seriously, I never expected to meet my past life\'s idol in person.\' Repeating the words he had said earlier to himself, Valyr closed his eyes for a bit before returning to his calm expression. \'He\'s the entire reason why I decided to trek the path of ranged weapon development in the first place.\'

\'Now that I think about it, if I\'m fast enough, I might even get the special title and class that comes along with being the first to introduce guns into this world.\' Deciding to end his moment of reminiscing there, Valyr looked at Jekyll in the eyes with a calm smile as he opened his mouth, his words causing the latter to look at him with brief shock.

"On behalf of the human race, thank you for your contribution during the Athereian-Khr\'gyan War."

"And here I thought I\'d never hear another person mention that war again." Getting over the shock he felt from the words Valyr told him, Jekyll let out a peal of laughter as he looked at the young man with a slightly soft gaze. "I thought it was already a blessing to have a Herald of the Zeihardt clan take up the mantle of my legacy."

"But to think that same person would be so knowledgeable of my background as well." Jekyll continued to let out laughter. "I am truly honored."

"Anyways, I\'m sure you didn\'t come here just for me to talk about my past as a fighter." Deciding to return to their original topic, Jekyll\'s expression returned to the calm it originally had. "With that being said..."

"How about we finally continue your inheritance of my legacy?"
