" There's so many labels now ...."
" And so many skills ", he continued as he read all of its description
' Wow, inventory will be useful and of course insight, at least now I won't go blind when fighting those creatures like those rats earlier ', he thought
' It says I'm weakened, or just exhausted I guess because my body is still not used to this energy called man- ', he was stopped in his thoughts as he tried to look to his right side as he hears sounds of footsteps in that direction

Matthew POV
As we decide to go back to the area where the rats comes from to find some clues, we saw a kid face first in the ground that is trying to move his head to look at our direction
" Hey are you okay ", a old man suddenly run to the kid supporting him to a sitting position
" Haah, thanks ", Ace groaned, wincing as he slowly adjusted his stiff neck
" You don't want to know how uncomfortable that was ", His voice had a dry, sarcastic edge to it.
" My neck is stiff ", he continued, rotation his head
" What are you even doing here kid? Do you know how dangerous here is? ", the old man asked
And then
" He's here, alone ",Matthew thought, a sudden realization dawning on him
' That means '
I began to approach them and when I'm infront of them I ask
" Hi I'm Matthew, can I ask your name? "
"Uhh, Hello I'm Ace "
------
Ace POV
" I'm Ace ", I said to the guy infront of me as he began to observe the people's reaction
' I see, it seems I'm not the only one that can see those notification earlier '
' I thought I'm the only one who will see those cause those are my achievement ', I thought
" Can you explain to "us" what happened", he said emphasizing the us
' I guess I'll just be done with it ', I thought while slowly manipulating the surrounding air if ever something happens
" Well like you I was suddenly transported here then those rats then I fought them then boom "
" Can you elaborate? How about the "boom" part how can you do that? Is that a skill? What's your Class ", he ask, no, more like he demanded
" Why should I? ", I said looking innocently at him
" Because we need each other right now, you need us and by giving"us" those information we'll have a much more better chances in survival "
" Well I don't really mind being alone, but I guess I'll give you some info "
" I'm a mage, earlier what I used is called magic and not a skill you know the boom, I weave the mana blah blah blah then boom ", I continued, replacing important events with gibberish words making the guy annoyed.
" So you received rewards right? From killing those rats and from the announcement earlier by the system "
' System? so that's what they call that voice '
" Ah yeah, though I can't give you those besides we got a month protection, right? so you won't have uses for it "
" What kind of rewards are we talking about? ", Matthew pressed, his impatience growing with each passing second
" Uhh, Items skills that kind of rewards ", I said
" Earlier the System shows a reward, what was it?", he said
" Ah, right, the Kingdom Token the system says it will create a Kingdom that have castles and walls ", he continued
" Yeah, I think "
" Can you hand it over? We could really use that Kingdom Token to set up a home, and the healing fountain and statue would provide much-needed protection ", Matthew said, his tone now less of a request and more of a demand
Ace considered for a moment
' I don't really need it ', he thought
' I guess I'll just give it to them so they stop bothering me '
He handed it over without a second thought, watching as Matthew eagerly took it
" I guess ", I replied as I confirm the receive notification from the System
After I press yes a golden token appears
" Here ", I said as I bring it to him
" Thank you, but where's the other two? ", he demanded with a smile
" If I take those out they'll be placed here, do you want that? "
" ...No, I'll talk with the group first then use the token so you can place the other items inside", he said as he walk towards the group with the old man that helped me earlier
---------
Matthew POV
I smiled as I walk back to the group thinking of how easy it is to pressure the kid to give the items
" Everyone, I have an announcement", I shouted as the group turn silent
" This is a Kingdom Token, an item that will provide us a home it have houses, walls for protection and of course a castle"
" We can start over by using this item, but we need someone that will lead us "
" And I think it's time for us to vote for a leader, anyone who wants to be a candidate raise your hand ", I said as I raise my hand looking at them for possible competitor but luckily no one does
" I guess that makes me the leader? ", I ask as they nodd their head in agreement
" Once we use this token, I'll assign team leaders for each profession ", Matthew explained, his voice now filled with a sense of purpose
"Those leaders will live in the castle with me for decision-making and... other stuff." His eyes swept across the group, gauging reactions
--------
Ace POV
Matthew stepped back as a pillar of light descended from the sky. The blinding glow quickly expanded, swallowing the area, and when it finally faded, a small castle stood before them, surrounded by houses
" Wow, I thought it'll be bigger because of it's rank ", I said out loud as I observe the surroundings
I eyed the castle with mild disappointment
' I guess the kingdom's durability and the materials make up for the lack of size ', he thought, testing the houses by attacking one. Not even a scratch appeared
' Huh. Guess it's tough enough to survive whatever the system throws at it ' I thought
As I was still observing the house materials for possible damage or scratch I hear Matthew shout
" Now, we'll be picking a team leader for every class ", he shouted
A man with a stern expression raised his hand
" I'm Roles, a former sergeant. I have experience in training and commanding people, so I believe I'm the best candidate for the fighter class ",His voice was steady, filled with authority.
Matthew nodded as other people began to raise their hands for the still available position
' Man, this is a hassle ', I thought as I began to walk towards Matthew
" Excuse me, where will I put the fountain and statue? "
Matthew looked at me as he replied
" You can put the fountain infront of the castle and the statue infront of it "
I nodded as I walk to the middle part infront of the castle to use the items
[ Notice: Do you want to receive the Item: Healing Fountain? Y / N ]
The System said as I pressed the Y button then blinding lights began to appear in front of me again then a fountain began to form
After that I also received the statue to placed infront of the fountain
Gasp could be heard from the people as they admire the beauty of the fountain and the statue
' Wow, now that's a Rank: A's item ', I thought
After admiring the items i began to think of what will I do next
' So what now? I guess I'll build my own home outside, I'm not really good with people specially groups and rules ', I thought as I began to walk towards the gate of the walls
" Hey Ace, where are you going? "
A shout was heard as I look back to see Matthew walking towards me
Ace turned to leave, his mind already set
" I'm going outside. I think I'm better off alone. Besides, we've got a month of protection ", His words were final
" It's dangerous to be alone, what if those rats comes back ", he said with a worried face
" Like I said we have a month worth of protection so those rats being summon like earlier is unlikely and even if they do I'll just kaboom them i think ", I said as I turn my back but stopped as I remember something
Light appears in my hand as 5 pouch appears as I throw three of it to Matthew
Ace pulled out five pouches, tossing three of them toward Matthew
"That's an All Seed. You know what that is, right? From the System ", I said as I continued my way to the gate
After going out the gate I saw green land as I let out a gasp of it's beauty
' Now let's start my adventure '
