Bored Gamer in Other World

Our bored gamer slept without eating dinner at all.

It was surprising that he did not feel any hunger since he inherited the harpy bloodline but this was advantageous for him since he was on a budget in the first place.

Thus, time was on Clark's side at this point.

"RING!"

"RING!"

"RING!"

"Can i sign in once more, Nancy?" Our good gamer asked when the clock turned into 12 at midnight. He specifically made an alarm for this so that he could track this very special time.

"Negative, host. The next sign in will be available at 7 o'clock in the morning." The system answered.

"Thank you, Nancy." Clark yawned thereafter. A few breaths more and the sound of gentle snoring echoed in the tight confines of this small room.

"RING!"

"RING!"

"RING!"

"Good morning, Nancy. I want to get my sign in rewards please." Clark requested the moment he opened his eyes once more.

He stopped the annoying noise with but a tap of his fingers. The wristwatch he got may have been cheap but it has some convenient functions installed on it.

"Affirmative, host."

"DING!"

"Congratulations, host. You have received 100 pieces of Fairy Hearts!" Nancy announced in a happy voice.

"Fairy hearts? Hmmm... This must be the best food that a harpy can eat." Clark nodded in understanding.

He knew that harpies were vile creatures and so eating fairy hearts was naturally not unusual for them.

Our bored gamer did not even have to ask where he could get his rewards since the inventory feature of the system was ever present wherever in the world he went.

He would have wanted to get to know how a fairy heart tasted like but there was a question that was needed to be asked first.

"Can i only do 1 sign in per day, Nancy?" Clark queried.

"Affirmative, host. Sign in rewards can only be redeemed once per day and the contents given are random. It is available at exactly 7 o'clock in the morning." Nancy replied.

"I see now. At least this one does not go stray far away from my expectations." Clark smiled in satisfaction. He then summoned his inventory and saw a single bundle of items inside it.

Fairy Hearts x100

Our bored gamer withdrew 1 piece of Fairy Heart and within 1 second, a magical item materialized directly on one of his palms.

It was a fist sized heart but its color was that of shining gold.

It did not drip blood but what was more curious was how the heart was giving off intermittent beats as if it was still alive and not dead.

This has made our bored gamer's brow rise up in wonder and he could not help but ask his system's aid in the next breath. 

"What's wrong with this fairy heart, Nancy?" Clark said.

"If you are wondering why it still has a heartbeat, host... that's because a fairy heart has a chance to do a full physical rebirth given sufficient time and nourishment." Nancy responded.

"I see." Our bored gamer nodded and suddenly raised the beating heart towards his mouth. Without any hesitation, Clark did what he needed to do in order to get stronger.

No matter where he went, it remained to be a dog eat dog world. The weak was eaten alive while the strong became even stronger. It was a way of life that was difficult to go against.

This planet called Astro was not any different from the ones before.

"CRACK!" The breaking and remodeling of muscles and bones echoed audibly in our bored gamer's mini apartment.

This was after our bored gamer had finished devouring 1 fairy heart in full.

"Congratulations, host. You have become a level 1 Harpy." Nancy announced in a happy voice.

"That was easy." Clark chuckled and willed himself to take on his monster form once more. Within moments, he turned into full harpy mode.

From the prior 3 foot tall, he became a 6 foot tall monster which made his sleeping position into a tighter fit than the past.

It was lucky that Clark had absolute control over his faculties which enabled him to not damage the properties of this pitiful room.

If he made a mistake here then he could easily smash the wall next to his body and that would alarm a sad soul that was sharing the same fate of our very own protagonist.

Getting this kind of private chamber may have been a joke to many but this was the reality of a life that could barely survive in this harsh reality.

"I have gotten at least 2 times stronger and this change is obvious in my doubled frame."

"I wonder what kind of benefit I would get once I become an even more powerful monster later on." Clark murmured and there was a shine of anticipation in his eyes.

After that, he returned to his human form then summoned yet another fairy heart into his hands.

20 Fairy Hearts later and...

"BOOM!"

"Congratulations, host. You have become a level 2 Harpy." Nancy announced in a happy voice.

"Nice! Let me continue." Clark grinned and began taking on more fairy hearts inside him. It would be stupid to stop now.

50 Fairy Hearts after then...

"BOOM!"

"Congratulations, host. You have become a level 3 Harpy." Nancy announced in a happy voice. Alas, her tone changed in the next breath.

"You have already reached the max level for a Harpy."

"Please choose an evolution path in order to level up further." The system notified in a businesslike manner.

"Can I pick an evolution path of my own weaving or is there a predetermined path for a Harpy, Nancy?" Clark wanted to clarify this very important point.

"You can choose whatever path you want, host. But the further you wander from a Harpy's true nature, the more difficult it is to level up in that evolutionary route."

"For example these 3 evolution paths below which give the most suitable fit for the harpy monster."

1. Wind Harpy – 90% synchronization

2. Savage Harpy – 85% synchronization

3. Bandit Harpy – 81% synchronization

"Give me a clearer description on these 3 picks, Nancy." Clark instructed.
