Hiro checked his progressive status after he leveled up just by defeating a wild boar. Due to the significant difference between the level of the monster and his own level, he gained a lot of EXP from defeating the monster.
Meanwhile, the sun above the clear sky continued to stung his skin even more. Hiro had to wipe the sweat that dripped from his forehead and almost flowed through his open eyes. Makes him feel bad for a moment.
A very real feeling, as if he was in the real world, even the natural phenomena that happened to his body when exposed to hot weather were the same in that game.

LUCK 10
Hiro immediately used the base points he got from leveling up earlier to be distributed to the stats according to his current need. He would need higher physical damage on the early stage of the game, so he needed to increase STR.
But, just as he was about to distribute the points, suddenly a new notification appeared overlapping the progressive display.
Ding!
[You have unlocked Sword Combo skill (Skill points required to activate)]
[Sword combo skill is a basic sword combo attack, a stronger and longer damage increase. (Max combo limit up to 10x if the skill level reached maximum)]
“Hmmm…” Hiro murmured as he read over the skill description. “Great! The first basic skill I got.”
Apparently, Hiro could distribute basic stat bonus points and activate Sword Combo skills using his mind.
According to the information he obtained from Nyx the Asdroid, he could manage bonus points with his mind that was connected to the game system. In fact, it was a very easy thing to do when he got the hang of it.
[6 base points has been added to STR, (STR 24)]
[3 skill points has been used]
[Sword Combo Skill has been activated (Level 1)]
[3 skill points has been added to Sword Combo Skill , (Level 2 )]
Immediately as he distributed his points, Hiro could feel his greatsword becoming lighter and lighter as his STR points increased.
“All set.”
Hiro suddenly heard a noise from behind his back.
Rustle!
Not wanting to be hit by the same attack, he quickly jumped forward and then turned his body towards the back.
A row of bushes as high as 100 cm with thorns on the green stems seemed to sway strangely. Sounds of footsteps could be heard rubbing against the leaves in the bush.
The tip of the bush could not be seen in Hiro’s eyes because it was merged as one with the forest area where it was fairly dark and was not exposed to sunlight because the trees were tall and close to each other.
Hiro gulped, waiting with his sword drawn with the perfect stance he had learned from his Kendo skill that was on par with the level of HachiDan.
He has always been obsessed with using a sword since childhood. And his experience of swinging a sword with HachiDan’s level of kendo made him not hesitate to always choose a job class that excels in using the sword.
Even though in LSO, weapons were not bound to any type of job class, still, [Barbarian] had the advantage of sword skills which was something that Hiro needed if he wanted to reach the apex of this game.
“Come to me, ugly pig!”
Grook!
Seven wild boar monsters of varying sizes suddenly jumped out of the thicket in front of Hiro. Two of the seven were enormous in size, even bigger than the first pig that Hiro had defeated.
As if the seven wild boars that appeared were the extended family of the boar he had killed, the seven of them looked very angry. Fumes came out of their snouts, as their red eyes flashed and locked onto Hiro and his sword.
“Oh, shit!” Hiro cursed loudly as he did not expect that the monster would come in groups.
Alas, the boars did not give him time to respond, much less prepare.
Bang!
[Health -50]
Hiro staggered backwards when one of the largest boars suddenly rammed him with two pointed tusks while swinging its huge head.
“Dammit!” cursed Hiro in annoyance.
He dashed forward towards the boar that was attacking him, swinging his sword vigorously at the angry boar crosswise. But suddenly…
Srug! Bang!
One of the smallest boars jumped up, hitting Hiro hard in the face, while two other boars rammed Hiro’s stomach. Hiro’s body fell backwards and was thrown away of two meters on the ground.
[Health -65] [Health -50] [Health -50]
[Health points 195/410]
Hiro groaned, his body aching all over from the unexpected attacks. His face was dirty from the soil carried by the wild boar.
He immediately stood up, his expression turned serious.
It turned out that losing more than 50% health points made his body ache more than before. He also got a few scratches on his face from the wild boar’s claws.
[Father Wild boar (level 10)]
[Mother Wild boar (level 9)]
[Wild boar (level 8)]
Hiro frowned after reading the names of the monsters, he only realized that his guess was correct. The wild boar that had ended up in his hands had actually called its family out for revenge.
Tap! Tap! Tap!
Hiro quickly ran towards the normal wild boar. He intended to get rid of the boarlets first before turning to the parents. This time, his vigilance rose to the highest level as he needed to be careful not to be hit by another unexpected attack.
“Hiyat!”
Hiro jumped up high with his sword raised in the air.
Splat!
[Fatal damage]
Another wild boar’s head was separated from its body, Hiro’s sword swing was sharper than before. It was all because his basic stats have increased. And it was clear that his choice of focusing on increasing STR was the right choice. He truly needed massive physical damage on the early stage.
Splat!
Hiro didn’t let the other normal boars run away from him and hid behind their two parents.
Splat!
[Wild boar health 0/400]
In no time, Hiro did not stop swinging his sword, slashing and stabbing the boar with ease as if he was preparing the boars for a big banquet. The blade of his sword was now stained with boar’s blood dripping on the grass below.
All the wild boars only got one hit from Hiro and died just like that.
Hiro’s relentless attacks made the wild boar mother even more furious, because her boarlets were just slaughtered in front of her.
Ding!
[Base Level Up 1x!]
Hiro’s health points were full again after leveling up.
“Come on you two!”
Hiro’s self-confidence increased even more after the level-up from the boar slaughter.
[Father Wild Boar (Level 10)] could no longer contain his anger, hot fumes continued to escape through his asymmetrical slit nose. It was obvious to see that the monster was furious.
The father wild boar suddenly ran to attack Hiro from the front, leaping onto his head ferociously.
Bang!
Even though Hiro had prepared to take the attack with his strength, his body wasn’t strong enough to defend, he fell backwards again.
[Health -345]
[Health points 100/445]
[Wild Boar: Berserk status]
Hiro felt his head hurt so bad, it felt like he was hit hard against a rock wall. His forehead was red like an internal bleeding was going on inside him.
He didn’t expect that the wild boar could be so angry and its attack increased so much from its berserk status. He was also caught off guard, as on the other VRMMORPG, this skill was usually only possessed by high level monsters.
Hiro’s eyes now saw everything nearby in a red filter. It was all because his health points were so low right now.
[Warning! Your health is below 30%]
[Your recovery will be slowdown]
Without thinking, he took out his health potion and drank its contents. The green liquid was as bitter as traditional chinese medicine.
[Health point recovery +100]
Hiro quickly forced his body to stand up and dragged his greatsword back to its original position.
The wild boar was still standing right in front of him.
[Hold your sword for 1.3s in the attack position to trigger Sword Combo Skill, then release!]
After reading the last notification that appeared, Hiro pointed the tip of his greatsword at the level 10 wild boar monster.
The monster didn’t stand still, it moved its front paws like it was taking steps to give Hiro the same attack.
“Hold still.”
Hiro felt the sword he was carrying suddenly felt very light, at the same time, the wild boar dashed towards Hiro.
He immediately swung his sword at the wild boar monster from all directions.
WOOSH!
SPLAT! [Health -100]
SPLATT! [2x Hit Combo] [Health -200]
SPLATT! [3x Critical Hit Combo] [Health -400]
The wild boar’s body started to tear apart due to the critical hit from Hiro’s attack. His sword felt very light as if it was a feather, allowing him to slash quickly in one breath.
Hiro currently looked like he was dancing with his sword.
He managed to slash the boar crosswise from the top, then continued from the bottom, and finally stabbed it horizontally just as the monster opened its snout wide in pain.
SPLAT!
Thick blood that smelled disgustingly fishy gushed out, hitting Hiro’s face and body.
Hiro frowned, he immediately pulled his sword from the wild boar’s throat and let the boar fall just like that.
After being defeated, the pig body shattered into crystal shards and then melted in the air.
The bar that displayed Hiro’s energy was reduced when he used that combo sword skill. While the AP points are not used for this skill.
