As soon as he said the words everything went black, [WELCOME NEW PLAYER PLEASE ENTER YOUR NAME TO PROCEED]. He was in the players' lobby, an empty plane where players interact with the game system. Using the floating holographic keyboard, he entered his name and a prompt came up, [PLEASE SELECT YOUR CLASS]. There are many classes in World Hunt but he immediately chose swordsman without hesitation since that had been his dream class. [CONGRADULATIONS ON CLASS SELECION AND WELCOME TO ??? HAPPY HUNTI-].
"What the hell!" Everything went dark, is it a bug, but World Hunt has never bugged before as it was the most common phrase in social media comments, "THE GAME THAT DOES NOT BUG," is it a power cut or damaged capsule, but capsules have a one-week battery life and in cafes they are always plugged in. so what the hell was going on. "ALTHOGUH THY DO NOT LOOK STRONG, I ??? PLACETH THINE ESSENCE UPON THEE. CLIMB TO THE TOP, BE THE STRONGEST, THE HOPE OF ??? THE STRONGEST BEING RESTS UPON THY SHOULDERS HUMAN. WE ARE COMING." What the f*ck."
When he come to, he was lying under a tree with a relaxing breeze. After collecting himself he thought back to the recent series of events and he came to conclude that it was not a bug or a malfunction of any kind, which means it was an introductory event or something similar or maybe there is a third party out there or here in World Hunt, yeah, just maybe. "Now then, time to explore." Somehow, he had a sword and some basic-like leathers.
[BASIC STEEL WORD]
Class: Common Attack: 10
Durability: 10/10
Description:
An ordinary steel sword to make survival possible for beginners, better than nothing.
He thought of heading to the nearest town to look for quests since he heard it was the easiest and fastest way to earn money and level up in WH. From his peripheral vision something caught his attention and as soon as he turned around it jumped straight at him.
A slime, the basic E grade monster one can find in WH, perfect for beginners but you have to kill a ton of them to get significant XP. "I just stumbled upon a bunch of slimes upon my first login, lucky, of course the damn things are not just going to stand around for me like sacks of XP, they are already surrounding me." As a beginner, one shotting a slime was not possible. Even though he had exchanged blows with them, he had yet to defeat a single one of them which was getting weird because as far as he could remember, a stick could even defeat a slime yet he had a sword, decreasing HP and there were still 20 of them.

"Finally, my first kill. I never knew slimes could give this much XP though, but D class?"

"What's up with my class, pretty sure I chose swordsman so why the question marks, must be a bug or something to do with that strange voice earlier. Guess I should look for a town first." As soon as he finished this thought, he found himself yet again surrounded by, "rabbits this time, at least I got full HP for the level up, the sword though, it has me worried." They were rabbits almost a meter tall with a horn protruding on their foreheads and, "goddamn they're ripped," and there were 20 of them.
They were much stronger than slimes as the first attack took a bunch of his HP. He countered with his steel sword and a straight forward thrust through the neck managed to kill it, "seems you guys traded defense for attack and those ridiculous muscles." As the fight progressed and he was left with one more rabbit and the sword had reached its limit, single swing from the rabbit managed to break it into pieces and he was left barehanded. "Time to improvise," and he picked the head of a decapitated rabbit and made a charge at his opponent. Surprised and confused, the rabbit could not even move and it was stabbed with the horn of its fallen comrade. "Somehow that worked out almost like a spear."

"I managed to level up 5 times plus a new class, awesome." He collected the loot from the rabbits, from the horns, skin and the meat, unfortunately there were no item drops and he left to look for a town.
