Alantina Online: The Greatest Sword Mage Reborn As A Weak NPC

"You can come out," Vance called out to Alice. When she heard his voice, she peeked out of the bathroom and looked at Vance. "Who was it?"

"The girl who puked on me's friend. No idea how they knew I was here but they gave me a new set of clothing." Vance said as he held up the clothes and frowned. They were way too small! He looked at the clothes, then at Alice, and tossed them to her. "You try them on. Maybe they will fit better."

"Ah….. Okay…." Alice took the clothes and walked back into the bathroom. A little later, she walked back out. The shirt fit almost perfectly, but it made her modest breasts stick out more compared to the baggier shirt. The pants were only slightly too big and only needed the pants legs to be folded up once. "The pants are still slightly big but not as much as before."

Alice placed The clothes she borrowed from Vance on the bed. And to her surprise, Vance picked them up and walked into the bathroom, and two minutes later walked back out wearing them. She couldn't help but blush. They smelled like her! She wore those! Vance, on the other hand, really thought nothing of it. He needed clothes and did not wish to walk around in a towel all night. "We will get you some proper clothing tomorrow that will fit you better. For now, let's try to get some proper sleep."

Alice wanted to ask why he was wearing the clothes without washing them first but held her tongue. She could only lower her head shyly and nod at Vance's suggestion. As the night grew on, Vance was still wide awake after sleeping most of the day. He could hear the sounds of steady breathing next to him. Unable to sleep, he got up and walked towards the window, and looked out towards the night sky. He needed to figure out a way to get Ricky and Maybel to the capital in the shortest time possible.

Letting out a sigh, he decided to practice trying to learn magic without using skill points. "I guess I should start with healing magic."

Since he could easily use a basic fireball spell, Vance hoped he could follow the same technique and cast healing in the same manner. He held his hand over his chest and pictured the basic healing spell he had used millions of times before. Because he was a solo player, he had only himself to heal all the time, so he was quite used to the feeling of healing.

After ten minutes of standing there, a white glow appeared around his body as a white magic circle appeared under his hand, as a small stream of light poured into his body. The problem with healing magic is that it was a channeled spell. It was not instant, so it would slowly drain mana. Luckily the amount of mana per health it healed was quite good. For a basic healing spell Minor Heal, it took 1 mana per 10 health.

This, of course, would gradually grow as the spell leveled up. And then once it reached max level the spell itself would upgrade into a new version.

[Skill Acquired: Minor Healing(LVL 1)]

Seeing the notification appear in front of him, Vance was very excited. That was because, with his Natural Mage title, his healing spell would heal 30 health per 1 mana. The title made his spells 50% more powerful and cut the mana cost in half so it was like having a level 3 minor healing spell with less mana cost.

Vance turned and looked at Alice, who was still sleeping soundly on the bed, and raised his hand. "Minor Healing…." With his words, the magic circle appeared, and after a few seconds, a stream of white light streamed from his hand and onto Alice. The cuts and bruises she sustained from escaping were all healed in a matter of seconds.

Vance's expression did not change as he walked back over to his bed and lay down. He now had healing magic and also had fire magic. He still needed to work on his other spells, but he could not do them inside as they would cause damage to the inn room. And since he was in a hurry to get to the capital, he could only wait until after this quest was over unless he spent some time before bed to try to cast them.

But one thing Vance wondered was how this would change the game itself. The game had its own storyline, and each quest was deeply connected to those storylines. Although he always hit the skip button during those times unless it was crucial information he needed, he wondered if the quests he had done in the future would now change.

Lying there with nothing else to do, Vance took a look at the quest point shop. There were many things in there he could buy, from weapons, armor, and accessories to spells that only bosses could use. While this did surprise him for a few seconds, upon seeing such skills, he realized he was now an NPC. By getting this quest system, it was like he was being compensated for being turned into an NPC.

It was just that most of these items were quite expensive. However, the lower-end items were still much better than one would expect. Take the Angel's Tear accessory, it was not something a level 11 player or NPC should be able to acquire unless it was like some kind of heirloom. But this only cost him 5 quest points.

He did not know how many points he could get from giving out quests or not, but if he could gain some gear that would help him on his path to becoming strong again, he would stand for days on end to give people quests. This way, he could accumulate a bunch of quest points. He could only hope that the point amounts per quest would not be too little.

With a small smile on his lips, Vance slowly fell asleep. What he did not realize was that as he fell asleep with his status window open, his Evolution status had finally changed.
