Another professional gamer also mentioned that preparation was the key. Sometimes, a game could only be enjoyed when you were already prepared for everything.
Not all gamers enjoyed hard games. Some just wanted to follow the story or dominated everything easily.
ying a hard game was nice and all. Max enjoyed it a lot in Mercenary Quest. That was why he wanted to y around in this game, lowering its early difficulty by finishing all the side quests first.
— Damn, it''s been 2 hours and he still did it.N?v(el)B\\jnn
— When will he finish doing it?
— The question is, how many side quests has he taken? He just walked around and epted everything while finishing thest one.
— Right now Breeze is like a robot… A robot! A robot that only has side quests in his mind.
— Not gonna lie, this grind is impressive
— Finally, something that this noble me can ignore and throw away from the final editing by adding "A few hourster"! Huahaha–
— BloodSucker seems to enjoy this stream the most
"Of course he enjoys it. So far, all my livestream is edited heavily by him. But he can skip 2 hours worth of stream and only show a few. This will make his job easier." Max exined as he approached a group of NPC. "Anyway, these guys are thest ones. We will continue after this."
— Finally!
— We can move to the ss after this! After two grueling hours!
— Hey, call those guys who have left. Breeze is about to get serious!
Max talked to the group NPC for a few seconds and handed a flower to the youngest of the guys. He wished him luck and the exmation mark above his head disappeared.
[You have finished Side Quests #98!]
[You have received 150 Gold and 80 EXP!]
"Heh, I am rich." Max eximed as he opened his character menu. There, the Gold and EXP he umted over the game was written.
[Gold: 11,710]
[EXP: 8,120]
Added with the 770 EXP he had earlier, he was pretty rich now. Unfortunately, this was the current limit. There were many areas he couldn''t get into yet. 98 side quests were already a lot considering he was limited to the dorm and yard area.
''There are surely many side quests in the school area. I haven''t essed the third floor and higher yet. They are my EXP farm, hahaha!''
— 8,000 EXP
— That''s a lot of EXP! And money too!
— Breeze, are you hoarding?
— With 8,000 EXP, he can create a Rank 3 spell. Heck, if he triggers the Great Sess, he can get Rank 4 magic too!
— If I remember correctly, there is only 5 Rank of magic in this game, no? And he can create Rank 4 in the early game?
— Crazy. The power of grinding
— The question is… What kind of magic will he create?
"Good question." Max nodded at the viewer''s question. "I don''t know myself, so let''s keep the EXP for now. I think it''s best for me to hurry up and finish the main quest."
His main quest was to head to the ssroom and take the ss. He wondered whether they had found a recement for teacher Prilly yet that they opened the ss today, but he would find out about thatter.
Finding his way to the main building was easy. He had passed by this ce many times as he did the side quests. The school area was like his own backyard by now. He remembered every ce there was to offer, except for the higher floors in the main school building.
Even if he didn''t remember, there was always a guiding light that could show him the way.
Arriving at the ss, Max entered and took a seat on the glowing spot. He only had to wait for a second after seating for the cutscene to y.
All students were seated. The door was opened and someone walked in. That someone was a small girl, probably around the end of her middle school year. She had long blonde hair and she wore frilly clothes underneath her long robes.
When she reached the podium, she had to lower it to match her height. Only then did she greet the ss.
"Hello, ss! Teacher Prilly got into an ident so I, the great Millie, will be ss 2 substitute teacher!"

— Loli is here!
— A legal one at that! Whooo! Screw Prilly. This is a real young-looking woman!
— New teacher? Do you mean a new wife?
— lolol, the chat has turned into a degenerate real quick.
"I agree." Max said in his half-transparent state. "Mods, do your job. Just ban anyone who say strange stuff about this new teacher."
— Got it (mod)
— Leave it to me! I will definitely make this ce clean of filth! (mod)
— … LovelyOtter… More like ScaryOtter!
[swordater has been muted for a day!]
— RIP
Onerade had fallen. Max chuckled at how decisive Otter was with her punishment and decided to leave the chat to them. He had a story to focus on.
And Max looked forward to it, especially since he had more than 8,000 EXP that he could ise to create magic anytime.
"I heard you ventured to the Magical Forest to gather some ingredients, yes? How scary it was. Teacher Prilly is heartless, doing something like that to new students." Teacher Millie wiped the tears that had formed on the corner of her eyes.
That gesture gained sympathy from the students. Some even offered words of encouragement to the new teacher. Some sighed in relief, thinking that Millie''s ss wouldn''t be as bad as teacher Prilly.
Things would be better now!
That was what everyone thought until they heard Millie''s next words.
"Gathering alchemy materials isn''t a magician''s job, it''s forager''s job! Our job is to fight against magical creatures or hostile enemies. That''s why such a ss is useless. But don''t worry, I have created a good ss for you students!"
Millie''s enthusiasm made everyone look forward to the ss. Everyone was looking at her, expectation shed in their eyes, only to be betrayed.
"My first ss is simple. Hunt 10 magical creatures within the Magical Forest. That or bring me a Griffon''s feather. That will guarantee you an A in my ss. Simple, right?"
"Simple your ass!" Max retorted loudly.
