[Do you accept the quest?]

"Wait, wait, wait..." Xio scratches her head. "Let's check the skill first."

[Improvised weapon's mastery - Begginer lvl. 1 (Passive)

You are now a master of reading the battlefield and using it at your advantage. Every object in you surroundings is now a weapon at your disposal.

You are able to use setting items as weapons without equipping them. An improvised weapon's damage is directly based on your Strength and Dexterity stats and the characteristics of the object. Shape, material, weight, general use and other details help to calculate the final damage and effect of the weapon.

*This skill cannot be used with a weapon or shield equipped.

Skill usage conditions: Unknown until acquired permanently.]

"The hell is this thing? Did a skill like this existed in Satisfy to begin with?

[Do you accept the quest?]

"Wait, wait goddamnit! Let me think..." Xiomara crouches down with her back on the trunk of the tree.

She was set on restarting again, but now she has the opportunity to have a class born from a hidden quest. In her 6 months playing the game, she never encountered any quest above B grade. And now there's a hidden one in front of her. Maybe the class is one of those hidden ones she has read about. She heard about one player called Agnus getting one that rushed him to the top ranks.

And he's now loaded... her eyes shine.

"I accept the quest"

[You have accepted the quest.

You have 20 minutes to arrive to Patrian.

*The quest will fail if you die or the time limit ends.]

"Ok, here goes nothing," Xio checks if the mini boss is around, but it seems that the herd scattered when she logged out. "Please be really far away from here, mister buck."

She jumps down the tree and runs without delay to the east. She feels vulnerable wearing just beginner's clothing but also fast. Without all that weight, her miserable agility can make her leap quickly through the forest.

Her luck is as average as anyone's, but after 5 minutes without encountering any mob, she feels as if lady luck was holding her small hand. But as it happens in life, luck runs out two seconds later when a group of rabbits appears behind a big boulder she just rounded.

Rabbits aren't normally aggressive, but these ones have shining red eyes and actually growl at her... rabbits... growling. What a joke. The three beasts jump at her throwing kicks with their hind legs. She can only let herself fall to the ground and roll like a log leaving dust clouds behind.

W-weapon, weapon, weapon!

Bellow an oak rest a bunch of pebbles that she quickly takes. Then she tries to put them in her inventory.

[You cannot storage setting items in your inventory]

"Aw, come on!" Instead of storage the pebbles in the inventory, she instead uses her shirt to hold them in a fabric pouch, "Fucking game... honestly."

Xiomara gets out of the way from a flying double kick and counter attacks throwing a pebble at the brown rabbit. It flies straight to the exposed belly of the beast.

[You have dealt 52 damage to the target]

"Wait, what?"

A normal rabbit has no more than 200 health points, and with the flimsy spear she used to wield, she used to deal between 70 and 150 damage to those fluffy bastards. Why is 52 damage a surprise? Satisfy has an unarmed combat system, but it only applies to martial classes with the competent skill. In a normal situation, she would deal no more than 1 or 2 damage to a rabbit, that due to a system that limits unarmed hits to a low percentage of the Str bonus. A way to make users to fight with the abilities of their own classes. How does she knows that? Well, she used to kick the rabbits out of frustration for the lack of exp received.
