Chapter 59: A Girl's Dream IV
According to Ferdia's stats, intelligence is not particularly important for non-caster classes and some spellcasting classes that don't use intelligence as a caster attribute.
After all, non-spellcasting classes usually rely on excellent physical fitness and combat skills to shine in combat, rather than intellect as a spellcasting attribute...... People have said that they don't use intelligence as a spellcasting attribute, so what do you need so many intelligence attributes for?
To use an extreme analogy -
Both the Druid and the Priest have the attribute of "Perception", and the magic mastered by both classes falls under the category of "Divine Art".
If a druid or priest has 100 intelligence but only 1 perception, then that druid or priest is a true scumbag until they realize that they have chosen the wrong class.
The same applies to Warlocks and Bards who use Charisma as a spellcasting attribute.
But then again, if someone really has 100 intelligence attributes, then it is unlikely that they will make the very low-level mistake of choosing the wrong profession - which is why this is only an extreme analogy on paper and in words.
So, to sum up, intelligence is actually enough for Finn, as long as he has 10 points at the level of the human population.
Both in reality and in this dream.
However, even if the intelligence attribute is not so important for either the traditional paladin or the ranger, the intelligence attribute of Kronnir ......
It's just too low.
In other words - 10 intelligence points is the standard IQ of a normal human, Arya's older brother, an elven boy named Roniel Brook - is mentally retarded.
It's not swearing, it's the real situation.
Because Fein can clearly see through the data on the attribute panel that the elf boy's intelligence attribute is indeed only 5 points, so there is no need to doubt this.
Of course, the elven boy named Ronnir was mentally retarded, but Fein, who was possessed by his body at this time, did not have intellectual problems.
So-
"Ah...... Okay, okay. Then brother, you should calm down and listen to me. Feeling that Ronniel had been possessed by Finn, it seemed that he was indeed sick again, little Arya raised her head a little helplessly and patted her forehead, and then sighed and said to Finn, "First of all, your name is Ronniel Brooke, and I'm your sister, Arya Brookwood - there is no doubt about that, right?" ”
Since his own intelligence did not become stupid with Ronniel's brain, Finn analyzed little Arya's words with his thinking ability, and then nodded along with little Arya's words and said, "...... Well. I'm Loniel Brooke, and you're my sister, Arya Brook. ”
"So, brother, do you remember what you did this morning?" Seeing that Finn finally "remembered" and recalled his identity, little Arya smiled bitterly and put her hands on her waist, her emerald green eyes calmly staring at the young man in front of her.
"I'm ......," Finn dumbfounded.
How do I know what your brother did this morning?
I've only been here for a short time since I was in your dream, and I still haven't figured out the current state of your dream. - he thought to himself.
Of course, Finn thought so. Naturally, he wouldn't really say that.
After a period of time since coming to Arya's dream from reality, although Finn has not yet figured out the background of Arya's dream, he has probably figured out one thing, that is, he is not playing himself in Arya's dream.
Yes.
"Play"
He thought about it. I feel that this word is the most appropriate to use in this place to explain this phenomenon.
In the real-world world of the Fourth Age of Ferdia, he plays himself, a young paladin named Finn No. Ozelit.
And at this time, in Arya's dream. His role changed from himself to that of an elven boy named Ronniel Keiki.
It wasn't a choice of his own volition, but mostly what the dream's owner, Arya, expected to happen.
In his previous game, he teamed up with other players in the Edventle Guild to enter the dream of a giant dragon.
At the time. The dragon wanted to reunite with one of his human lovers in his lifetime, so a female player on their team at the time temporarily became a woman who fell in love with the dragon after entering the dragon's dream, triggering a quest chain hidden in the dream dungeon.
It was the first time he had ventured with his friends in a dream of another creature, so that experience left a very, very strong impression on his memory, which led him to make a guess about the state of Arya's dream.
Fein speculates that little Arya, a few years ago, needs her older brother Ronnier to do something for her.
In the past, the elven boy named Ronniel Keiki probably didn't be able to do what little Arya expected, so he temporarily became a stuntman to play Lonnir after entering the dream world.
Ronniel had failed to accomplish for little Arya in the past, and Arya dominated the dream's subconscious, hoping that the outsiders who had broken into her dream would make up for her past regrets in the dream.
The problem now is that Finn doesn't know what little Arya experienced in the Far South Forest a few years ago.
He needed time to understand the past of his fellow elven man.
Or, as originally planned, try to stabilize Arya's mental state in Arya's dream, and delay until Sheen completes the operation on Arya's body in the real world - after all, the young man has not forgotten that although this dream does not seem to have anything terrible now, it is indeed a nightmare scene.
So, after a long period of hard guessing in his mind, Finn felt that he might as well follow little Arya's words to round off the awkward atmosphere that was beginning to rise.
Then, he stood in place, raised his hand a little embarrassed, touched the back of his head, looked into little Arya's eyes and muttered, "Uh...... I'm sorry I ......."
He hadn't figured out how to answer the next sentence for a while.
But it's okay -
"Okay, okay, Arya said that she won't blame your brother, so it's good that my brother knows it's wrong." Hearing Finn's apologetic words, little Arya seemed to be relieved, and then interrupted him in time, "Then, don't run around next time, Dad and Mom are worried about you in the morning." ”
As the words fell, the girl's face was full of sunshine, and she took Finn's hand, or rather, Ronnell's body, and led the young man in the direction she had come.
So she took him by the hand, and led the way like a blind man's guide through the moist and warm forest, and after a few steps she remembered something.
Then, she turned around, smiled and told him, "Let's go home." ”
Then he took the young man all the way away, and the backs of the two quickly disappeared into the ...... The saber-toothed leopard who had been cut off from one eye with an arrow from Arya.
"Roaring ......"
When Fain and little Arya were both gone, the saber-toothed leopard, whose face and one eye had been injured, slowly poked its head out from behind a patch of grass, and looked in the direction where the young man and the elven girl's backs had disappeared for a long time.
On the beast's head, a layer of bloody white flesh gradually emerged from the scars on its face that had been cut by Finn with a scimitar, and the flesh that grew on the beast's low skin shimmered faintly in the sunlight.
Like, there are a few small pebbles of the lens embedded in it...... (To be continued.) )
