When Himu entered the fantasy world, he breathed a sigh of relief. He was safe now.
He realised that he had appeared right back at the gates where he had logged out.
He thought about what to do next and then decided to explore the city because it was best to go leveling up only when Gagan was around.
He first explored the area where a lot of people were selling stuff. He thought about buying something and then he looked at the money he had.
{What the... She saved a lot of money. I'm gonna ask for my share next time.}
He prayed that Swara hadn't just spent all the money on accessories she liked and actually bought decent stuff.
After some more window shopping, he found a shop that sold a few healing herbs and items, so he bought the ones that cost the minimum.
Then he went on to the region where it looked like different buildings had just clustered together. At first sight, that was what it looked like, but the more he explored it, the more he understood that it was brilliant planning.
Roaming around, he talked a lot with the NPCs he found, taking on any quests that didn't have a time limit, though there were only one or two like that.
After about an hour of exploring, he stood in front of what looked like an Ancient Greek temple, but it was as big as presumably the biggest mansion, he could see people in white robes, praying inside and a few people entering.
{I pray they don't have 12 main gods, there are a lot of pretty girls here.}
There weren't. There were 11 gods.
He saw that after he entered inside and gazed at the beautiful human-sized sculptures. They were so beautifully crafted, that it felt like they would come to life at any moment.
There was a door at the back, from where the priests and other members of the clergy would come through.
Of the eleven gods, four were male and were standing on the left, while the other seven were female and standing on the right.
From left to right, the male gods were Yu, Gaut, Rik, and Rold. They were the patron gods of the four classes that players could choose from.
Yu was a guy in his early thirties, he looked huge in the heavy armor he was wearing that covered his entire body but the face and a large, broad double-bladed sword hung at his back. His face was rough yet handsome, with black eyes and hair and a scar on his right cheek that was barely visible because of his goatee.
Gaut's face was hidden, in fact, his whole body was hidden in what looked like the black clothes of a ninja, except that they weren't black but rather aegean blue.
Only his light green eyes and tanned hands, each holding a sai were visible.
Rik was in a black and white robe, both his hands hidden in the sleeves of the opposite arms. He had a rather striking appearance with his mysterious deep sea blue eyes and a smile that looked like it belonged to the wise, ancient man. He looked like a classic mage from the Isekai anime he used to watch.
Rold was also an ideal ranger. He had a wolf with him and he was wearing dark green ranger clothes while his right hand was pulling an arrow from the quiver and his left hand had the bow.
He looked towards the goddesses and gasped in shock. The first goddess he saw, The Goddess of Love, Pholena looked exactly like Phyllis to the smallest detail.
