"A-amazing!"
"An Ego sword, the first few minutes of the game. I couldn't ask for a better start."
As Mylo was enjoying his current fortune, a sudden vibration could be felt throughout the castle. Light started emerging below his feet, increasing in intensity every passing second while traveling in strange patterns , as if it was forming some type of magic circle .
"W-what's happening?"
The light started surrounding and closing closer towards Mylo's location until it finally covered him of light and within seconds, he disappeared from the hall as if he was never there to begin with.
*Whoosh*
***
"Where am I? what happened to the gorgeous castle walls?"
"Open Map!"
------------------------------
-Current location: Valsea's Forest
Current Region: Human kingdom 'Valsea'
Recommended level: 01-10
Population: Extremely populated
-------------------------------
Confusion crept up , leaving questions unanswered. Before making any sense of the situation , Mylo was transported to one of the major regions of second chronicles. He looked around; the many people present were hunting monsters or chatting with each other. While some were talking to non-player character (NPC) in order to receive quests and increase their reputation or affinity with them. After reorganizing his thoughts and calming himself. Mylo could tell that he triggered a mechanic by picking up the item and so after fulfilling that specified action he got teleported into the starting region.
"Was it really a coincidence that I was put there? its as if it knew that a low level player will be coming."
"...Well, there's really no point getting a headache over this. I'm just happy to have gained so much so fast. Hahaha!"
It hasn't been long since the servers opened, most players were still level one. Few managed to reach level two and those that did were mostly core members from major guilds.
"My initial start was unexpected but more than welcome. If I was kept there I wouldn't know where to start, good thing I got transported at one of the starting kingdoms. What should my next move be? Should I hunt a few monsters or do some quests?"
[New quest acquired: 'Reaching level 10!']
----------------------
Requirement: Reach level 10
Reward: Class selection and Global ranking unlocked.
Failure: N/A
Time Limit: N/A
* ADDITIONAL REWARDS FOR 1ST RANK OF RESPECTIVE CLASS: RANDOM CLASS SKILL BOOK.*
---------------------
"Oh! A class quest, no wonder the forest is so dynamic. Trying to get the 1st rank reward huh?"
Mylo knew he never had a chance to reach level 10 first. There were two reasons for that; the first reason was the fact that millions of people were currently playing the game, they're bound to be geniuses specialized in levelling. He was certain that he wasn't talented enough; he was the type of person to slowly customize his character with the weirdest possible combinations. The second reason was the 'Half-exp' penalty provided from the ego sword.
"Hmm, there's no need to do novice quests. I should wander around in a higher level area. Since I have an ego sword whose starting physical damage is at one-hundred I could easily head to a level five or higher hunting ground."
Mylo marched ahead of the people fighting rabbits and chickens in the field, heading to a less populated area as well as a more dangerous one.
"Hey! Look at that guy…"
"What is he doing? His level is too low to head there."
"What do you expect from a noob? I bet he thinks his the hot shit."
"Forget about him, just focus on the rabbit. I don't want to get my kill stolen (KS) again."
"Yeah, let's go!"
Mylo wasn't concerned by their words, he had something they didn't. An early advantage!
***
"Ha~, silence is so much better; they can bicker all they want between themselves. I have other plans."
The forest was enormous and gloomy .A dissonance of animal noises; predominantly those of small creatures, filled the air, and were strangely synchronized with the sounds of several gusting leaves. The giant tree's occasional openings allowed plenty of sun light to spread in the soils below.
"WOOOOOOOOOOOOO…"
"huh?"
"WOOOOOOOOOOO…."
Abrupt sounds of howling could be heard throughout the forest. The howl in the gloomy environment, the sound of creaking woods and suddenly Mylo is face to face with a 2 meters tall creature of flesh and fury, a hungry wolf. Two yellow eyes stare at him with a cold malice. The creature steps closer to him, its four legs calmly carry its carnivorous body with a calm energy.
Mylo slowly takes out his rapier and ready's himself for battle.
