“I told you there’s no need to add your own funds but, no. We don’t listen to the ones who know better.”

They were now downstairs with one side of his cheek red.

“I didn’t want you to add funds not because I want to be your sugar mommy in this game but because of a very special achievement that you can only get if you use the money that you have earned yourself.”

She had asked madam Rin to use their kitchen and after getting fresh ingredients from the market, she made them breakfast herself.

And, she made some extra for madam Rin and Misha as well, so all four of them were enjoying the delicious food on this fine early morning.

“You never listen to me. Why do you do that?”

“I listen to you alright… you’re just used to listening to me more. That’s all.”

She slapped him a little too hard and it hurt more than when she had punched him.

He was in pain again, and she pitied him so she gave him a little pouch of ice.

“Huhu, you sure are an interesting young man, mister.”

Madam Rin liked the food Alex had made and she was quite interested in learning cooking from her even though she had much better experience with cooking.

Even Misha liked how well cooked and well seasoned some of the things were.

She could tell the spices that Alex used were not something they can find on the market but even without them, the things she had made with the simple ingredients of the market were quite delicious.

“I’m nothing special, miss. It’s just that I happen to be blessed to be with this pretty lady.”

He held the ice pouch with one hand while his other hand was patting Az as the little guy enjoyed its own food– the rare Mana stones that are sold quite high priced on the market.

According to what he had learned from Alex, Mana slimes were unique existences that were pretty special in this nature.

Not many players had them and all those who did had a unique kind of Mana slime that possessed special skills that were unique.

They were different from the skills their kind possessed or they themselves possessed prior to their evolution so, just having these slimes as one’s summonable creature, or Familiar, or slaves was a rare thing.

However, he had tamed this one when it had not even evolved, so it was an even rarer case.

Still, it was not as rare a case as the player on unified ranking 11– the man who married a Mana slime which later evolved again into a completely new kind of existence.

“Hump, buttering me up isn’t going to work.”

“Of course it won’t after how much I buttered you-.”

“You want another beating?”

“No ma’am.”

Misha didn’t understand many of the things they were saying, but her mom had a smirk on her face which seemed to understand even the things they did not talk about.

She was an experienced person so, it wasn’t surprising for either of them that she understood what they were talking about.

They did not mind her smirk, but Alex still wanted him to stop his teasing since it wasn’t going to work anymore.

“Anyway, don’t buy coins with your own money. I sent you some so use it if you absolutely need to, but you should be alright after we get you registered.”

They had many things to do today, and the first thing they were going to do was to visit the registration office.

“Oh. Are you two going to the registration office by any chance? Is mister Elio really a new foreigner?”

“Of course he’s new. This dumbass just somehow got lucky with his first trial.”

She looked at him with another annoyed look and shoved another spoon of soup in his mouth.

Since he was holding the ice and patting Az, she had to feed him.

She did not mind the feeding part since they often did that for each other but she did not like how he tried to go against her request and buy his own money.

“Hmmm… for someone new to this world, mister Elio sure is interesting.”

Every player had to register with the Registration office when they finished their tutorial and arrived in the starter town.

Only after their registration with the registration office that worked as a central organization maintaining all records of the players and natives can players join the various organizations.

If someone fails to register though, the chances are high that they will be put into jail if they are caught inside public or private properties.

Yet, there are always players or people who do not register with the Office and live their lives in the wilderness.

“Hey, Madam Rin. if you’re interested in this bastard, please know that we are pretty open-.”

“Ahem, Miss Rin. She’s a dumb girl so please don’t listen to her.”

Taking care of her alone was a tough task so there was no way he wanted a hot looking mother with a daughter that would soon be of age.

He was content with his life so– this one headache was enough to him.

“Hey! Weren’t you the one-.”

“So, now that I can’t buy money, should I open one reward box and see what I get?”

She was talking a little too much, so he first ate the food in her hand, and then placed the pouch with ice on her mouth.

“Mmmmm! Hey!”

Her hands weren’t restricted like his so she took the ice pack away and was just about to shout at him… when he took out the bronze metallic box with a smooth surface from his inventory and placed it on the table before them.

“Oh! Is that a reward box!”

“Mm-hmm. Has Misha seen this before?”

“Yes~. The foreigners sometimes play with them while eating~!”

The system was common for both the players and the natives, just that there were some things that ‘players’ could do similar to some things that unique native species of this world could do.

However, the achievement system was the same for everyone.

And, seeing these achievement boxes was a pretty common thing.

“But… the ones I’ve seen are mostly silver.” Misha was a normal kid so it did not seem like she knew much about the world and the common things like the reward boxes.

“They are common boxes, Misha. This one on the other hand, is a level higher than those common achievement reward boxes.”

Thankfully, the knowledgeable big sister of hers was here to tell her about these boxes.

“There are six kinds of reward boxes that are granted for six kinds of achievements that go from: Common, Rare, Epic, Heroic, Legendary, and Mythical.

People usually only achieve common achievements but the uncommon ones, like gaining a title during your first trial, or having a [Family] of slime that also has an evolved slime in it is something of a rare achievement.”

Alex smiled at her, looked angrily once again at her partner, and told him something through their eye contact before looking back at the younger girl with a smile.

“We can call reaching (Level-100) an epic achievement that everyone hitting that level obtains, or clearing a high difficulty dungeon by yourself could also earn an achievement of that level.

But beyond that, all achievements become a little unique.”

She told her how there are unique conditions that one had to meet in order to obtain achievements better than Epic ranked.

She even told her how becoming a Dragonslayer, A Swordsaint, Archmage, or gaining the [Recognition of worldly elements] could lead to a Legendary achievement.

“Then, big sister, what is the Mythical achievement?”

But she could not answer this question for her.

“That… we do not know yet.”

In the three years that this world has existed for the players, only the fact that an achievement rank higher than the Legendary rank exists has ever been revealed.

People call it Mythical achievement because the achievement by nature could only be a myth if the conditions to achieve it were so complex they went even beyond the grade of the near impossible.

No one knew what they needed to do in order to obtain this achievement… but, there were many players who were constantly in search of it like madmen.

They had dedicated their entire lives in search of that absurd achievement or even some kind of clue about it… she used to be one of those mad people as well, but she did not care about all that anymore.

“Go ahead now. Open it. Quench your curiosity… we have to go do stuff after that.”

She had opened many boxes like this one so she wasn’t that interested in it.

It all depends on luck, so she knew since he had some points in luck, he would at least not get something as shitty as the things she got.

She was cursed by luck perhaps so she did not rely on it, but he was different.

Luck played a big part in art… and as an artist, he knew how to use what he already had.
