"Is this really free? It’s way too powerful," Oliver muttered in disbelief as his hand trembled while holding the card.
Immunity to Crowd Control was an absolutely absurd ability. Even though it only lasted for five seconds, in an actual battle, five seconds was more than enough to determine victory or defeat.
Or even the difference between life and death.
[The system has deed you worthy of this card. Your resilience in facing the great tragedy that befell you in the past, and your ability to overco it through strength and unwavering willpower, have proven that you are ’Untouchable’ by despair and misery.]
Oliver’s eyes slowly beca teary before he quickly wiped them away.
It seed the system had been silently monitoring him throughout the past five years as he struggled against despair, regret, and pain while endlessly training himself and his monsters through blood and sweat every single day.
"There’s no need to cry anymore. Let’s all get so rest today, everyone. Tomorrow, we’ll go and train with our new classes!"

The monsters in this world are basically divided into two major categories.
The first are Dungeon Monsters.
These monsters remain inside dungeons and are contained within them. Even after being killed, they will eventually respawn again after so ti.
The second category is Rogue Monsters.
Rogue Monsters are creatures that escape during dungeon breaks and roam freely throughout the world. They are the main cause of countless human casualties and injuries.
And right now, Oliver was hunting the latter.
He was currently within the Chrysalide Grassland after accepting a quest to exterminate a massive group of giant grasshopper monsters that had been destroying crops.
Before starting the hunt, Oliver first went to et the leader of a nearby small settlent called Corny Village, whose main source of inco ca from corn farming.
"Thank you for accepting our request. But... did you really co alone? Do you realize there are thousands of those Hopperns out there?" the village leader asked in surprise after seeing only Oliver arrive.
"Yes, I know. Don’t worry, just leave it to . I’ll make sure all of you can continue working on your fields tomorrow." Oliver assured them.
He imdiately proceeded toward the vast field. The mont he arrived, his vision was instantly filled with black flying insects covering almost the entire corn field.
"Co out, Husk and Nyx!"
A four-ter wolf and a five-ter beetle instantly appeared. If other tars outside Ashville Town saw these two monsters, they would surely mistake them for rogue bosses.
Imdiately, the Hopperns, each around 1.5 ters in size began swarming toward them.
Click!
BANG!!
Nyx released a scatter blast that instantly killed dozens of Hopperns at once. He then continued bombarding other parts of the field relentlessly.
"Change to Crimson Striker Class!"
Oliver’s body instantly transford as crimson aura covered him from head to toe. His hair and attire turned deep red. A smirk slowly appeared on his face as excitent surged through him.
"You look really happy, kid," Husk said from beside him. Now that their Familiarity had reached the maximum, Husk and the other monsters could utilize nearly half of their original power.
The only thing limiting them now was Oliver’s still relatively low Tar Level. On top of that, the seal placed on Husk was still active, aning unlike Nyx and Queen, Husk suffered from far more restrictions.
"Hehehe. Of course. You handle that side, Husk. I’ll handle this side."
Imdiately, Oliver dashed forward, leaving behind a crimson trail as he moved. A large swarm of Hopperns instantly flew toward him. Their numbers were so massive that they resembled a black cloud of smoke.
Oliver pulled his hand backward before unleashing Crimson Slash toward the nearest monsters. And instantly, he beca surprised.
The slash wave traveled outward from his swing before cutting through every monster in its path and instantly slicing them all in half.
"Whoa! The slash can now be launched from a distance?!" Oliver exclaid in shock.
[You have defeated Hoppern for the first ti!]
[Received 50 Tar Coins.]
[Defeating the sa monster again later will no longer reward Tar Coins.]
"Ahh, that sound! I really missed it." Oliver said after hearing the notification again after so many years of absence.
Honestly, he had secretly hoped that the system would reward him with a massive amount of Tar Coins as compensation for the long update so he could buy many packs imdiately.
But still, he was already grateful enough to receive a Super Rare card. Even if he bought ten packs, there was still no guarantee he would obtain a Super Rare card.
"Yosh! Let’s finish this quickly!"
"Crimson Slash!"
"Crimson Slash!"
"Crimson Slash!"
Oliver continuously spamd the skill without stopping. The Hopperns had absolutely no chance of approaching Oliver and his monsters.
After thirty minutes of complete massacre, the final Hoppern was finally defeated by Oliver.
"Good job, Husk and Nyx." Oliver returned to his normal form afterward.
"Nyx... want... more." Nyx said, feeling satisfied after blasting enemies endlessly today.
"Next ti, alright Nyx? I’ll find even stronger enemies so you can blast as much as you want." Oliver replied with a laugh.
Soon, Oliver returned to Corny Village, and the village leader was shocked that he had completed the quest so quickly. He imdiately handed over the reward of seventy-five silver coins along with a bag filled with grilled corn.
Later, Oliver leisurely traveled back through the forest toward Ashville Town while eating grilled corn on top of Husk’s back.
"Husk, want so?"
"Is it good?"
"Try it first."
Oliver tossed a corn into the air, and Husk instantly swallowed it whole. Ever since tasting Tara’s cooking in the past, Husk had beco much more open to eating human food. Now, whenever Oliver offered him sothing, he would usually accept it.
Night had slowly begun falling over the forest.
Oliver often returned ho late after completing missions, and although Irmine used to oppose it strongly, she had gradually beco more accepting over the years.
Suddenly, Husk abruptly stopped moving.
"Why, Husk? Is sothing wrong?"
"I hear sothing, around five miles from here."
"Let’s go check it out."
Husk imdiately dashed deeper into the forest at high speed.
