Chapter 117: A Tournament To Gain An Active Skill
"If there is one thing I hate most in the world, it is training."
"Whether it is refining a skill or an attribute, they are not things that can be raised quickly."
"Instead, you must take your time bringing it up step by step, putting in a lot of time and effort to get results from it."
"Doing the same thing over and over and over again."
"And only when you are sick of it will your efforts begin to bear fruit."
"Then you have to do it again."
"With every character you play."
Reginald Coulan, creator and head of House Aurellion in dynasties online.

"Are you like 10 years old or something? Can you come up with something better? I feel like I’m losing brain cells just breathing the same air as you! Do me a favour and stay away from me, okay? I don’t want to be infected by room temperature IQ!"
Railius said back, equally sarcastic and relaxed with a small smile as it had been a while since someone had come at him so directly, putting his hand to sheath Jordis’ half-drawn sword, showing that he did not care for such an insult. Luckily, because his character was familiar with this person, he knew his name, as in Dynasties Online; there were no names above NPCs like in other games. The recollection of a character also only works if the player has not met the NPC before, but the NPC has met the player character as once a player has met an NPC, they are expected to remember, just like with people in real life.
This is something that many players find hard to get used to, as in almost every other game; you are told by the game the name of an NPC when you meet them. Looking back into his character’s memories, he was not surprised by what he found about the man before him or the reasons for his apparent hatred for him.
