Godlike Player in a Game-Like World

''Whew, I slept like a log. I had no idea that crafting would be so taxing on my mental and physical energy. ''

When Raydon awoke from a dream in which he was swimming in a pool of gold, he noticed how relaxed his body and mind had been. He then jumped out of bed with great joy.

Even though he had only slept for a short while, surprisingly, it was enough to give him the feeling of renewed energy. After all, a typical item holder would experience mental exhaustion even after crafting just one item.

This was primarily due to the fact that the items they crafted were not made with ordinary materials, but rather with the elements that comprise this world's laws. It was a phenomenon that these seemingly unrelated and incomprehensible materials could be processed and brought together to form a whole.

''Fortunately, thanks to my high stamina and enchanted spirit, I was able to craft a set before my next match started. '' Raydon laughed, then went back to his dimensional storage to retrieve the newly crafted item set, which he then began to examine once more.

Even though he was already familiar with all of the skills, he couldn't help but feel envious as he looked at them again because he knew he wouldn't be able to use this set for himself.

''Man, this skill is so cool. '' Raydon remarked with admiration as he examined the chest armor that matched the rest of the set and was covered in metallic black dragon scales.

''For the first time, I've encountered a skill that has both offensive and defensive components.'' Raydon stated this after carefully examining the skill.

This skill's ability to change into armor demonstrated that it was a defense type skill, and the fact that it could also change into a weapon and add the necrotic aura feature demonstrated that it was an attack type skill. Despite not fully understanding what this necrotic aura was, Raydon was aware that it was a form of corrosive damage.

In addition, not only was there no cooldown, but there was also no duration, so item holders could use the skill as often as they liked for as long as they had mana.

''Even just these three items are superior to everything I've had so far. '' Raydon said with a sigh before examining the remaining two items.

''Man, this set looks absolutely fantastic, and it is supported by stamina and charisma. The only issue is that the skills consume a lot of mana,'' Raydon muttered to himself before pausing for a moment.

"Hold on a sec. I have a lot of stamina already, and if I can upgrade my title in some way, I can probably gain access to the second stat as well. It can't be a coincidence that I discovered the entire set,'' Raydon pondered. He reasoned that this magic equipment set must be some kind of cosmic sign or hint that was meant for him specifically.

He had no idea how to unlock another stat by upgrading his title, and he had no idea which stat to unlock next, nor did he know whether he would choose it himself or it would be random. But despite his lack of knowledge, he decided not to be too surprised if the next stat to be unlocked was charisma.

''Actually, I hope the following stat is agility because it better fits my fighting style.''

Raydon had a thought, but he abandoned it quickly. To top it all off, he hadn't even expected to make it to this world; now he had a sneaking suspicion that his next unlocked stat would be something completely out of the blue.
