GREED: ALL FOR WHAT?-Chapter 1883: Making Promises.

He didn't get one offer and felt like his future was bleak. But AB got the most offers and squandered them. How could he not be angry that AB didn't value an opportunity he would kill for?

Eventually all the contracts were withdrawn. The pillar of light above TFuck's head was withdrawn. Then his name in the top 10 was removed.

Taylor shook his head in pity. "What a waste. What a waste."

Eventually he sighed and said, "Maybe that's what makes him so good at this game. He embraces all of the difficulties and learns to overcome them. Maybe I should try doing that instead of looking for shortcuts to avoid the difficulties."

He was promising himself to maintain a positive outlook through the upcoming trying times, so he was caught off guard when a pillar descended on him next.

At first he was shocked. Then his eyes widened in realization. He looked at the whiteboard to see that his name had shifted to the 10th place.

"No way," he said in disbelief.

Two contracts came down from the sky for him. They were the fewest number of offers for everyone in the top ten, but he still felt like crying in joy.

A heavy invisible weight seemed to have been lifted off of him now that he will become a hero. He had been carrying this weight ever since he realized how hard it was to grow stronger without the help of gods.

The weight had only grown stronger after he found out that he wouldn't make it to the top 10. Then it rose to its peak after he was not picked.

But the weight is gone now. Its absence brought a great sense of relief to him. He truly wanted to fall onto his knees and cry. But instead, he went through the contract quickly.

Gone was his promise to embrace difficulty instead of looking for shortcuts. He just wasn't that stupid. Instead, he promised himself to defeat AB and show the ignorant fool the errors of his way. He made that promise as he examined the contract at his fastest speed possible. One of the contracts was from a god called 9 Crowns, while the other was from another god called Sword Bite. He can only pick one, so he has to decide which god to work for.

The two contracts stated his duties to his god. He is to obey his god in all things, even if it will risk his life. There were other responsibilities, such as the fact that he must not deceive or betray his god. Then he has to join the pantheon of his god after becoming a god himself. Next are his benefits. He will earn an upgrade of his class to the Heroic level. He will get a race change to that of his god. He will get one divine artifact of his choosing. He will earn 1 divine crystal per month for the rest of the time he is a hero. His power will be protected by his god so he doesn't lose it when he dies.

The last part of the contract was the terms for the cancellation of the contract. It stated that the contract will remain unchanged unless the two parties are in agreement to change it. It also stated that the contract will remain in effect forever until he becomes a god.

What concerned him was that there was no way for him to break the contract. But it didn't concern him enough to consider rejecting the contracts.

The two contracts were identical, so he looked through the brief information of the god he was signing up with to determine which one he would go with. This information was short. It only stated the ranking of the gods and their placement in this ranking.

There were four rankings provided by the information. He noticed that the god called 9 Crowns was the first in three of them.

His eyebrow raised in surprise when he saw this. He muttered, "An overachiever? I hope they won't be a demanding boss."

He was already inclined to 9 Crowns when he saw their placement in the four rankings. The fact that this Sword Bite god was not at the top of any of the rankings helped him to make up his mind.

He had to cut himself a little so that he could use his blood to name his mark of agreement on the contract. It was what was asked from the contract.

He was no stranger to pain after a year of grueling training, so he cut himself quickly and used his blood to thumbprint. This made the other contract disappear.

The contract he signed shrank and attached itself to his forehead. It became a mark in the shape of a god with 9 heads.

-Your Class Swordman has been upgraded to Heroic Swordsman.

-Your Race has changed to Orc

-You have gained Identify.

-You have gained the rune leveling system.

-You have gained the protection system.

-You have received Blessing of the 9 Crowns.

His body began to change with the notifications. He grew taller and bigger quickly until he was an orc. The mark of his god remained on his head. It was golden against his red skin.

He wasn't as big as an orc should be. He was more lithe than bulk. It was exactly what he would have preferred to look like if he had been asked to shape his orc form.

He looked at his sword, which had become tiny in his hands. "Looks like I won't be able to use you anymore. Fortunately, I will be able to get a divine weapon soon."

He was never able to get a legendary weapon. Not after Black Knife accumulated a billion training points to get one. This reduced the chances of others getting it, as the training points left could only get one more Legendary weapon.

Between the competition by the others to get that single legendary weapon and the many training points spent on other things, no one was able to get another legendary weapon.
