Pick didn't feel like doing anything. Although he stood up for a while to stop losing the feeling in his legs, he knew that he didn't feel like doing anything at the moment. The scene was just too beautiful, and there weren't players around to witness his sudden comfort in the night. It had been a while since he had felt like this - it had been a while since he came to the wilderness at night. he was now strong enough to stand here and do whatever he wanted without worrying about any sort of monsters, and even players that might come out here. Pick sighed in relief and comfort before straightening up his back and letting out a satisfying sound as he stretched. The night was early, and Pick was an optimistic individual. He would get this owl before day time at all costs, and he was confident of it as well.

Pick was finally ready to move. He felt inspired again suddenly when he realized that he ought to get some material gathering done so he doesn't have to come out here again in the nearby future. Material gathering, although necessary, wasn't that fun, as he was just picking up items. However, it was far better than combat. He would hate to have to fight any one in a one versus one situation, but he was fine with farming lots of weak mobs with his weapon to get col eventually. Pick smiled under his mask as he decided that he would move. The owls were waiting for him, and so were the materials. At the moment, he was only collecting tier one materials that could be used to make tier one equipment, but soon enough, he would begin to gather some tier two equipment for when he eventually hits it, which won't be too long.

Pick saw something in the distance, and he had been distracted once again. He would be unable to find a material as a result, but he was sure he saw something in the distance - an owl? A person? Heck, maybe it was some sort of monster that no one has ever seen before? Pick didn't care - he was strong compared to everything on the first floor, and there was no way something too powerful would ever show up. Pick was still a coward though, and would sneak towards the figure in the darkness before crouching. By the time he got there, though, Pick could hear the flattering of wings as an owl or bird flew away - an owl... probably, because they were the only birds that roamed during the night. Pick smiled, he had seen his next target - it was magnificent and big in the darkness, hopefully in light as well.

Pick took off his mask slightly and whipped off a few beads of sweat that had appeared from his forehead. He had been on a bad streak of luck, and this was not ideal for him. He needed to refind his luck or else he will never ever find a familiar for himself. This was not good, and he knew it. Perhaps it was due to his lack of confidence but it had been about an hour or so since the last time that he had managed to get a material. He had bunch of loot die boosts too, so Pick should be getting materials easily without any sort of difficulties. Pick sighed, sitting down before standing up once again. Look, he was getting discouraged, but he wasn't the type of person to just give up on anything. If he doesn't manage to get any materials or familiar tonight, another night awaits.

Pick closed his eyes, imagining himself in a void. Luck would come and go, but his ability to make luck would not. He could meditate, and keep a clear mind in order to make sure that he completes whatever he needs to do. He has one task at hand, and he should no longer think about future. Instead, he should be thinking about the present, dwelling in his own luck .With his luck, there needs to be no planning at all times, but only during the times when he needs to do so. Dwelling on thoughts about the future could only lead to disappointment as well as failure. Pick would not get any of those, he would make sure that that happens. Pick smiled, putting his mask on. The night was getting to him, and he was feeling slightly tired already, but he knew that he had one more chance to get a familiar.

Pick would continue to gather materials after materials in order to waste time before getting the familiar that he wanted. He knew that his luck hasn't been great, but whenever he even thinks about that fact, his luck would only get worse. This was not an ideal situation for Pick, as he was very renowned for his luck - and if his luck was not up to his standards, it would only continue on the decline. Pick sighed, sitting down for a while this time, thinking about the things that he had done to make his luck go bad. It wasn't going to be permanent, he knew about that, but for some reason, his luck had gone on a decline. If someone was to see him dwelling like this , they would find it extremely weird that a man in a cloak and a mask was doing what he was doing like this.

Pick stood up, after all, he had nothing to do before the morning would soon hit. He wanted to get a familiar today, and he hoped that the luck gods would not fail him the next time that he attempts to do something like this. HIs ability to gather materials were completely unmatched in this game of Sword Art Online, and in the real world as well. The amount of times his confidence in his luck had managed to pull through and help him escape from the cruel police chasing him was uncountable at this point. As far as he knew, Pick was invincible, and it was all due to his luck. Without his luck, he was nothing, without his mask, he was nothing. Pick stood up suddenly and went immediately to the left to test his luck. Right there, he was able to find something - a material, three actually.

Pick was happy - his luck had come at a crucial time. Soon enough, he would be finding another material. His confidence was finding its rightful path towards his brain, and he knew that soon, he would be able to obtain the familiar and then use it as a competitive advantage during the night, and possibly even during the day when he manages to do something like give it coffee to keep it awake. Pick smiled underneath his mask as he walked forwards a few steps and getting closer and closer to the owl in the distance. It was then that he stopped, this one seemed like the right type. From the distance, he could see the majestic brown feathers that would be valuable to him in the future. There were little of the same type of species on this floor. Sure, Pick could find another one, but he wanted this one.

Pick was walking up to it slowly, not getting the bugs out of his inventory just yet and not wanting to startle it just yet. He wanted to calmly approach it and he took off the mask as well in order to do so. The owl should see his owner in his first appearance - which is his face. Pick smiled, underneath the mask of course, but he desired the owl very badly and he knew that another opportunity to get one would be very rare. Pick sighed, beginning to get closer and closer to the enemy - the enemy until he manages to tame it. According to his calculations, he had fifty-fifty chance to tame this familiar. If he fails here, he doesn't quite know when the next opportunity will come. Pick sighed, taking off the mask and putting it into his inventory before preparing to start the whole taming process.

It was then that he noticed that the owl was not the type that he was searching for. This owl was different somehow, and he could obviously tell once he was closer. He would be done for the night. He had spent all night trying to get an owl and would now head back to his inn in his Pick costume before taking a nap and getting right back into the grind. He had failed both fifty percent chances now of getting a familiar, and if he continue to fail, who knows how long this quest might take him? It didn't matter - Pick was a picky individual and he would make sure to get the perfect owl even if it takes him a week to do so, and coming out every night too. The good thing to all of this was the fact that he could get some materials as well.

Pick sighed, knowing that the night was over and he would have to come back on a different day. Pick knew that the quest was going to be hard, but he didn't expect it to be as hard as what it seemed to be at the moment. He was unable to see anything even close to what he was looking for except for that last owl which proved to be useless in the end. Pick had better things to do with his life than to do what he had been doing the entire time, such as searching for materials while doing this scouting for the owl thingy that he didn't like. Why couldn't the game just give the players their familiar, or allow them to buy them with materials, since they were practically possessions after all. His owl won't be that much help, except for the fact that he'll be someone to talk to.

Pick was disappointed, but he soon reached the safe zone at just the right time right as the morning came and the night had disappeared. The night time was over, and so was his chances at finding this familiar that he wanted. Pick sighed, not pleased with his results as he changed into his regular clothing before heading into the safe zone. There was nothing he could do, except to go catch a snooze and do so after having breakfast first. He went to the ramen shop that he had been going to a lot lately, ever since he completed that queen bee quest which gave him a few levels - or one actually, now that he thought about it. The shop was more like a stand, like that ramen shop from the Anime Naruto. It wasn't actually a shop or a restaurant, but it was good enough to eat in.

Pick smiled, the great ramen that sat in front of him was simply waiting for him to chow down with few fast pulps. It would be the highlight of the day after all, since there really wasn't much that he had accomplished other than a few gathered materials. He could get materials so easily nowadays that he no longer even had to try to get them. He could technically get them at any moment, and what he wanted from all of this was not the materials, but rather the familiar that would help him on his quest to achieve the task that he wanted to achieve. Pick sighed, fixing his hair that had managed to fall forwards, blocking his vision from the ramen that he adored... and that would be it. He soon finished up the ramen bowl and stepped away from the chair that he had been sitting on.

Pick then went right to his inn and began to walk into the room that he adored. It was a great inn and he was very pleased that he had chosen this one on the first floor. Although it would be considerably expensive to newer players or rather low-leveled players on the first floor, it was definitely no where near Pick's budget cap. Pick had the ability to pay anything and anyone in materials, it was just the fact that players could care less about obtaining materials - instead, they would much rather obtain the Col that was so hard to come by. Pick knew that for himself - no one would be wiling to buy materials with Col, because materials were so often found with ease. Pick sighed, recognizing the mistake that he had made at the beginning of his adventure by not picking the sword skill that would have helped him.

Pick was going to head straight out in the safe zones and wait until it's dark again. Of course, his definition of wait was not the type where you simply do nothing. Instead, he was ready to wait by doing some material gathering as always. It was not like he had much else to do anyways, since material gathering was practically the only thing that he was actually good at. His luck, however, was not coming for him today, and he had no idea why. He wanted to get a familiar, but it had taken him more time than some of the lucky companions that he had heard from who managed to get a great familiar without that much boost in luck - at least not as much as Pick had. He was jealous of them - his luck was supposed to be the best of the best, but nothing is working.

It was almost dark - he had been occasionally looking around to check for materials, but the matter of the fact was he didn't really care about what material he had at the moment. In fact, he could care less about his materials. He had so many, and it was so easy to collect them that Pick could care less. If he could, he would give away all his materials just to have an owl come to him. His luck was unbeatable, and he was well aware that this familiar he was trying to find was a special breed and would require a lot of searching in order to obtain. Knowing all this, however, Pick was still not satisfied with the results at the very moment. He wanted better - According to his confidence, he should have gotten the familiar a long time ago - his first attempt. He had narrowed it down to fifty percent, after all.

Pick was practically obsessed with getting this familiar. He wasn't eating as much as usual, and he felt extremely tired during the morning. Indeed, he was desperate, just like the writer of this post. It really is something difficult for an only person to role play a lucky person since this RP was based entirely on the dice roll to determine your luck. If I had half as much good luck as Pick, role playing this character would be far easier. Instead, this post is breaking the fourth wall at all aspects of role playing, which is basically like breaking a law. I'm getting desperate, and I'm willing to write about my own frustrations within Pick's post. This is simply to fill out the world count, since the writer of this post is extremely tired of doing the same things over and over again. Mind me creativity, but this is who I am.

It was a barren waste land. There were no materials, and no familiars around either for him. It was getting dark and he has yet to spot a single owl that he can take and use as his familiar. It was useless, and Pick hated the fact that he could not obtain what he wanted - the thing that adds salt to insult was the fact that Pick was the master of luck, yet here he was with his fifty fifty chance of obtaining both materials and familiars, and yet his luck was not following through. This wasn't an issue with confidence, this was an issue with the way that this game was created. His luck was undefeatable, and although the game was trying to prevent his luck from occuring from within this game, Pick will find a way around it, by boosting his "luck" stats as much as possible until maxed.

Okay, Pick was completely done with this quest. He hated everything about it. He would never do it again, and if he would he would hate it even more or go into this quest with all his stats maxed so that he has a one-hundred percent chance instead of a fifty percent chance to obtain this familiar. This quest, being a no level-cap quest was deceiving, because the lower leveled you were, the least likely you will be able to succeed on this quest. Pick sighed, and yet he was still not succeeding and not only that, not only can he not spot familiars, but he was not getting materials either. The past four hours, he had been searching, searching and searching, but he was unable to find anything. Today, just like the end of yesterday, is turning out to be bad luck, and Pick despised himself for it, it sucks.

Finally, the RNG gods have managed to bless Pick with something. If this was the fifth time in a row that the RNG didn't go the writer's way, he would've probably raged quitted for the day, maybe even for eternity. This quest was a huge deal breaker, and it was for a familiar that only gave a weak benefit along with a skill point that seemed so small and unimportant since he was getting skill points simply for getting materials each day. Right now, he was probably getting two or three skill points just from getting materials and not actually doing anything important, and he was only receiving one skill point for completing the quest? Complete nonsense! Pick was mad, and he hated the fact that he was mad. This was perhaps the first time that he had felt frustration at the game since before, everything had been smooth for him.
