Chapter 507: Becoming a Master

Once the notification for Leo reaching (Intermediate) mastery on [Shadowbind] faded, a second, much more awaited system notification replaced it.

[ SYSTEM NOTIFICATION :- Congratulations to Player ‘TheBoss’ for becoming the first player to reach the fabled realm of a ‘Master’ fighter.

This achievement will be noted down in the history of Terra Nova Online, and will be celebrated by generations of NPC ]

Leo felt stunned as he looked at this notification, it wasn’t a usual system notification with a mundane blue screen and black text, but rather a blazing red notification with golden text, unlike anything he had ever seen before.

Even the boundary of the system notification was different, more regal, making Leo feel that reaching this realm was a bigger deal than anything else that he had ever accomplished before, including killing a Demon Count.

“Alright–!” Leo said, with a big grin on his face, however, before he could even properly celebrate, his vision started to go dark, as for some inexplicable reason, he felt difficulty breathing.

*Ding*

*Ding*

*Ding*

Leo heard the familiar chime of system notifications ringing one after another, however, to his horror he could not see anything, and neither could he breathe.

“What’s going on? Why can’t I breathe?” Leo wondered, as he fell to his knees clutching his throat which was throbbing wildly.

However, to his horror, at that moment, his entire body locked-up too, as he became simply incapable of moving his in-game character completely.

“Am I in danger?” Leo wondered, as his heartbeat quickened, and he mentally started to think of all the possibilities.

“Am I under attack? Did someone sneak into my mansion?” He wondered, as he tried to recall if his body was hit by a poison dart of any sort, but he felt confident that he was not.

There was no chance that he was poisoned, which made his sudden lock-up even more bizarre.

“Shoot… I really can’t breathe! I can’t move! I can’t see ….. if this goes on for much longer I’ll lose consciousness. I’m already at my limit” Leo thought, as he felt like his lungs were ready to explode.

“Open system screen….”

“Open inventory….”

“Emergency contact operators…”

Leo thought about all the key words, however, without him being able to open his mouth and actually say those words aloud, nothing really worked.

A few minutes passed without him being able to do anything about his condition, until he felt like he was on the verge of losing consciousness.

“Is this it? Is it impossible for a player to reach the threshold of a ‘Master’? Just why have I suffered this sudden penalty?” Leo wondered, when suddenly air rushed into his lungs, rejuvenating him with oxygen.

*GASPPP*

Leo croaked, as he took in a large breath of air, filling his lungs to the brim with fresh oxygen, however, it wasn’t just oxygen that his lungs absorbed, as alongside the oxygen, his new and enhanced body, now also absorbed mana.

“Air… fuck…. Air!” Leo said in a high pitch note, as he gasped for air for several minutes until his breathing returned to normal.

Slowly, his vision returned as well, and he felt like he had been covered in a greasy, nasty, slime, as he seemed to have sweated a lot during the time his body was on a lock.

“What the fuck happened?” Leo wondered, looking up ahead, as he finally saw the three system notifications that had been presented before him.

Player ‘TheBoss’ can now be considered on par with the strongest NPCs within the Empire and has hence became a key figure for the future of the game’s main storyline. ]

*****************

Unknowingly, it seemed like Leo had created another global announcement, however, this was the first ever one that was a blazing purple global announcement in the history of the game.

No player in history had ever achieved a purple global announcement before, and the impact that it had on the hearts of the masses was not to be underestimated.

“Well, well, well… You’ve got to be kidding me!” Leo muttered, staring at the rewards in disbelief, as although he was mildly annoyed at making headlines yet again, the sheer awesomeness of the rewards he had received made it easy to forget the minor irritations.

This time the gains he had received were beyond extraordinary and had literally catapulted his strength to the stratosphere.

With every breath that he took, he could feel the strength of mana now coursing through his veins, as it was just like what Ben said.

Once he entered the realm of masters, his mana pathways opened like never before, improving both his maximum mana capacity and mana regeneration rate to unprecedented heights.

However, the improvements on the mana front were nothing but the tip of the iceberg, as every single reward that he received today was beyond extraordinary.
