[Teleportation in 1 second]
[Teleportation completed.]
As Max and the rest of the survivors arrived in Zeta, they were mesmerized by the world in which they arrived in.
Many beings found only in books or movies were now in front of him. Elves, angels, dwarves, and many others were all watching them in detail.
If they were here in this world, it meant that demons have taken over many worlds since the beginning of time and humans were completely oblivious to it.
[You have finished first in the rankings.]
[Here are your rewards.]
[You have gained a massive amount of experience.]
[You have leveled up.]
[You have leveled up.]
[You have leveled up.]
[You have received 5 unallocated stat points.]
[You have received the Ranker's Sword.]
As he watched all his rewards, Max was intrigued by the sword he had received, he decided to see what was special about it.
[Description: The Ranker's Sword is given to the number one on the rankings at the end of the tutorial, it is bound to you. This sword is different from the others, it can level up with you, meaning you will never have to change your sword ever again. It will start weak, just like you but killing monsters with it will make it stronger.]
'Wow, this is great!' Max thought to himself.
The experience and stat points he had received were also great but Max decided to wait a bit before putting his stat points to see where he would need them the most in the future.
The rewards he had just received gave him an edge over the others.
Just after receiving his rewards, an elf, and a dwarf were looking at us.
"Hello, everyone can the people who ranked in the top 10 in the tutorial come forward?" asked an elf.
"Wait, I wanted to say that." grumbled the dwarf right beside the elf.
"Sorry about him, he's not always like this haha," said the elf as he laughed, "So, can the top 10 in the rankings come forward."
"Before, they do so. Who are you to order us around?" asked a human in the crowd
"Oh, it's true that I didn't introduce myself to you guys. My name is Haldir, and as you can see I am an elf. I am a person who represents the Colisseum and we are the ones responsible for taking the new arrivals and take them to the Colisseum." explained the elf named Haldir.
"Don't forget about me. I'm Thorin, a dwarf, and I'm here for the same reasons as this weirdo right next to me." said the dwarf, Thorin.
"Now that we have presented ourselves, can the top 10 in the rankings please step forward? If you do not cooperate with us, we will have to act with force to make you come out." said the elf, coldly.
As he said that Max and nine other persons stepped forward. Looking at the elf and the dwarf dead in the eyes.
"Ah, I thought I'd have to beat a couple of them but you guys are reasonable. Please tell us your names and rank, please."
"Jack, ranked tenth."
One by one, the top ten rankers stepped forward and introduced themselves. Some were shy, and some were confident.
"I'm John, I ranked third"
"I'm Avery, second," said Avery, bitter that she wasn't first.
"Max, first," said Max with as few words as possible.
"Oh, so you are the one who ranked in your race," said Haldir, the elf as he looked closely at Max trying to capture every little detail about him.
"You look powerful, young man!" said Thorin
"Hmm, thank you I guess," said Max, not knowing how to respond to the sudden comments of the two.
"I guess we now need to explain why being part of the top 10 is important. Every race you see in Zeta has gone through a tutorial just like you guys, so it means that the top 10 are the most talented of their respective race," said Haldir
"So, each race in Zeta comes from different worlds?" asked John, the third-ranked.
"Yes, for example, all vampires or angels in Zeta come from the same world and have gone through a tutorial just like all of you here. That is why being part of the top 10 is important, it represents your potential."
"Alright, but what exactly is the goal of Zeta?" asked John
"First of all, the goal in Zeta is to climb the Tower of Nightmare. The Tower is composed of a number of floors that have not been discovered yet. To climb this tower, multiple groups were created, they are called guilds. Guilds recruit new challengers from our Colisseum, this is why it would be a good idea for you all to go there with us." continued Haldir
"Those guilds can give a lot of resources which will help in clearing the trials which are present in the tower. If you get offers from them after your fights, I suggest you accept right away since it will help you a lot." interrupted Thorin
"Stop interrupting me Thorin, but he is right, offers from guilds are a once-in-a-lifetime offer you should take. Also, we are currently located in what we call the newbie city since it is where all the captured appear. If any of you guys don't receive any offers it is okay since there are a lot of ways to get stronger even without the help of guilds." continued Haldir
"Yes, you can hunt nearby where wild monsters are located. By doing so, you will be able to get experience so you can have an easier time in the tower. interrupted Thorin, again.
"So, want to come to the Colisseum?" asked Haldir, smiling.
Every single one of them answered that they would go to the Colosseum and show what they could do to the entire world of Zeta.
***
Arriving at the Colosseum, Haldir, and Thorin talked to a man in front of them about the new arrivals and how they wanted to fight tonight.
The man looked ecstatic to have found new fighters to entertain the crowd.
"Hello, my name is Jay, I'm the one who organizes the fights around here. I heard you guys are interested in showing your abilities. You made a good choice, fighting in the Colosseum is a great way to make money and to get your name out there." said the man
"The first fight will be between you mister Rank 1 and an elf which has gone up to the third floor of the Tower of Nightmare. Good Luck!"
