It still seemed awkward between the two.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After the breakfast, she took him to the Virtual Reality Pod, and he appeared back on the sandy beach of the 6th floor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Look who finally decided to show up!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the terrace, Rock greeted him while playing around with his grandchildren. His daughter was lounging on a beach chair, enjoying the sun.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I came as soon as I was able.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Raon said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That isn’t good enough. I woke up at five. I expected you to be here by six. I think you aren’t taking this seriously!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rock said sternly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Listen, you old shi—I mean, old man, I can’t arrive any earlier. I have stuff over in the real world, so deal with it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Raon said with a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was about to call him \"old shit\" but noticed there were children around, so he changed his wording a little bit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Also, he wasn’t lying about having stuff over in the real world, as he simply couldn’t come any earlier than this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It would require him to tell nurses to wake him up early so he could go play the game, and it honestly wouldn’t look good.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Also, he doubted they would let him play without having breakfast first, as it was genuinely unhealthy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...Hmph, very well. Let’s get going then.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rock patted the heads of his grandchildren and started walking down the beach with Fang Raon jogging after him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...By the way, how can your grandchildren play this game? I thought there was an age restriction or something.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"There is something called Child Accounts, which allow children under the age of eighteen to play the game with special restrictions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"They cannot be attacked, as they basically have a shield of protection around them. They also cannot attack other players.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"They are stuck only in Safe Zones, and they can freely move between the 1st and 10th floors of the game.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rock said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I didn’t know about that.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Raon said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Child Accounts aren’t public yet. Rose family has connections that allowed us to have a couple of those accounts. Basically for beta testing purposes, but it works wonderfully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It is difficult for us to go anywhere in the real world because of the busy schedules, but the children love coming to the 6th floor.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rock said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I see.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Raon said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They arrived at a place at the beach where there weren’t any people around, as it was quite rocky on the shore.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How far are you from the second level?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rock asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Half.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Raon said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...Okay. Pretty decent, I would say, but the floors get increasingly difficult from here on, so it would be wise to level up before going anywhere.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rock said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What skills do you have?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Basic Slash, Basic Parry, Sword Stab, Hard Slash, and Dodge Roll.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Raon said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hard Slash? That’s good. When you practice Hard Slash, you can also improve your Attack stat—two birds with one stone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Also Dodge Roll is good for Speed and Stamina. Honestly, Sword Stab is a shitty skill, so don’t even bother.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rock said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Really? I thought Sword Stab was quite decent since it is the quickest skill in my possession.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Raon said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s just the way you have to train Sword Stab. You don’t increase any of your stats by stabbing your sword.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You have to learn Sword Stab with a light sword for the best effects, and it doesn’t really work with a heavy sword because the tip of the sword keeps dropping down due to the weight.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rock said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...I guess that makes sense.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Raon said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We will do full-body training today. It will be hard. You will simultaneously learn Hard Slash and Dodge Roll while improving your Attack, Stamina and Speed.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rock said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Okay.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In that moment, Rock opened his inventory and went through his large selection of items. It took him a while to find what he was looking for.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After some time, he took out a heavy-looking wooden greatsword with a thick blade. It looked heavy as hell.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rock was still able to effortlessly swing it around.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Catch!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He tossed it over to Fang Raon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Raon grabbed the blade with both hands and felt its weight bearing down on his arms.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was as heavy as he expected, maybe even more.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...Alright, do like I am showing you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rock said, and turned his body sideways, then grabbed an invisible greatsword and mimicked the Hard Slash technique.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He then pulled the invisible greatsword back, under his armpit, and rolled down the sand—mimicking Dodge Roll—and then stood back up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once he was back standing, he moved the invisible greatsword in front of him, did the Hard Slash technique, and rolled again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Do this.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rock said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’That looks exhausting.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Raon thought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He then lifted the wooden greatsword, swung the sword like he remembered doing with Hard Slash, and was about to roll, but then he heard an angry shout.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No, that’s wrong!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rock shouted angrily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ah?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Raon stopped.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That wasn’t the Hard Slash technique. That was Shitty Slash technique. Do it again!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a frown on his face, Fang Raon slashed again and then got told immediately to do it again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Swoosh!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Again!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Swoosh!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Again!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Swoosh!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Again!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Swoosh!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Are you even fucking trying?!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rock screamed so hard that his voice was trembling, and it wouldn’t be a surprise if he suffered cardiac arrest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The mastery is still increasing. I already have two percent in the mastery.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Raon said as a protest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I don’t give a fuck! It would be more if you actually did the technique correctly!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rock shouted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Huff! Huff! Huff!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Raon kept slashing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Again!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With gritted teeth, Fang Raon did it again, and his arms started to burn, and the skin on his hands started to peel.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It didn’t matter whether his mastery increased or whether his technique looked close to perfect. Rock still forced him to repeat the technique.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...Again... Horrible... That was even worse... Again!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rock crossed his arms and watched with a look of displeasure on his face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was only going to be happy if he couldn’t tell the difference between using the \"activation word\" to use the skill and actually doing the technique without the activation word.\u003C\u002Fp>",1072,"2026-06-06T02:35:08.437Z",1,"novelbin.me","234bfa2313ac04694fdc3cff1ad03f4c15ff0aa888b97f9e4771348d47f3c84a","black-online-chapter-37","black-online-chapter-35",270,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fblack-online-cover.jpg"]
