Multiple lights shone around Urie, showing that he leveled up several times before coming to a stop.
"You've leveled up a lot, brother!" Arie amazedly looked at his older brother and praised him.
"Still, I don't have a role! I don't know what I should focus on!" Urie sadly looked.
"Have you checked your user interface?" Blue Liquor asked as Urie waved his hand and his interface appeared in front of him.

[Level: 15

Beast Count: 23

"It still says that I don't have a role!" Urie sadly looked at his interface and closed it.
"How come? The clan representative gives you the choice to accept a role after being a part of their clan!" Blue Liquor, confusedly told him.
"Well, if you can have it, maybe there're some requirements that I need to fulfill before I can accept a role!" Urie shrugged and asked them to get out of the temple and followed the Mayor out who already went ahead of them.
As soon as they emerged from the staircase, it slowly returned to normal as the Mayor was waiting for them with his back facing them while looking through an open window.
"Again, thank you for fulfilling the wish of the Lunar Wolf! Since you garnered enough reputation to be promoted as the Town Noble!" Barbatus smiled towards Urie as he handed a token towards the young man.
"A Noble? What's that?" Urie asked as he took the token and carefully examined it.
"Noble is a title that will be earned when you achieve enough reputation in a certain area! It has its own perks that you can discover!" Selena introduced as she handed a booklet towards Urie.
He flipped it open and saw a variety of items and beasts cards. The booklet seems like a catalog of items that he hasn't seen, well… those seem like the cards and items that couldn't be obtained at the current stage of the game.
"The town has a hidden market somewhere around here! You have the option to find it and you'll get access" through these items!" Selena instructed as she stepped back and the Mayor turned around and faced them.
"Also, as my token of appreciation, I would like to tell you that the token that I gave you also have a lot of hidden features!" Barbatus smiled and told Urie everything that he needed to know about the token.
If Urie showed the token to any of the shops all around the Town of Aqfrost, he can receive a 10% discount for any items that he'll buy.
He also can have the Town Noble title at any of the towns and cities near Aqfrost and receive a 5% discount at those towns.
Last, he can accept Town Quests that concern the other towns and those quests have bountiful rewards than the normal quests.
"That's all that I can tell you! Also, I heard that the wise old lady wants to meet with you young lad! Go and find her!" Barbatus told Urie as he dismissed the three. They went out of the Town Hall, finding the old lady Urie and Arie met before.
Urie and the other two roamed around finding the old lady, but first, they went to find the place where Blue Liquor took his quest.
After handing over his quest, he gained another level from the rewards, as he decided to come with them for a moment.
It took them a few hours to find the lady as they saw her at a corner of another alley in the farthest area of the town.
She gestured for them to follow her deep inside the alley as they followed her towards another door like before, but when they entered it, an elegant store welcomed them as the system notification rang inside the heads of the three at the same time.
[System]
[You have discovered Aqfrost Town's Blackmarket!]
The three looked towards each other as the two went to look around the place while Urie followed the old lady after handing the two of them the catalog given by Selena.
The old lady went downstairs while Urie was following from behind, still thinking about what could have been this old lady's intention in finding him?
They went deeper and deeper underground until they entered a large hall filled with exquisite looking items and a lounge could be seen on the other side of the room.
[System]
[You have entered a private area! You have the permission to enter the private place (Hidden Connoisseur Gathering Place)!]
Urie was surprised after hearing the notification as he looked around and questioningly looked at the lady.
"Come! I'll tell you everything that you need to know and probably a thing that you've always wanted!" The old lady gestured for him to sit down at the seat in front of her.
Urie examined the people inside the room and to his surprise, none of them were players. All of those that were looking around the items or chatting against the others are NPCs and he was the only one that was a player.
"Wait, I have a question for you!" Urie looked at the old lady and asked, "Perhaps, are you a Connoisseur, granny?"
The old lady heartily laughed at the young man's question, as she looked at him and smiled. "Maybe? Maybe not? Who knows! But I brought you here not because of me, but you!"
She placed a piece of paper in front of her as the young man took it and examined the contents.
"Connoisseurs are those people that took a different way than the others! Unlike those Affiliation Clans, the Connoisseur Clan focuses on studying the field of interest till the very small detail! That's why we don't just give out roles at our own whim!" The old lady told him.
"What about this paper, then? What should I do about it?" Urie asked as he showed the paper towards the old lady.
