'Yes level up! with this I should be able to kill more wolves pretty easily now' Scout thought with a big smile on his face. He rested and started to kill more wolves, he can now take on 2 at a time without taking damage. He could even take on 3 at time while still taking damage, but it was manageable for him. He finally finished killing 50 dark wolves, he gained 4 more levels. Which brought him up to level 18. His skill rose up quite a bit too.

Scout was pretty formidable now, he can now easily kill any average players at least 10 levels above him. Scout had just managed to collect the rest of his herbs before he headed back to town to turn in his quest.

Scout got back to town and before he turned in his quest, he went to the pharmacists store first. He walked up to a counter and saw another old man. 'Apparently all pharmacists are old people' Scout thought before walking up to the counter and said.

"Excuse me, can I buy some potion vials please?"

"How many do you want son?"

"Can I get 750 pieces?"

"oh wow, thats a lot of vials, can you even afford it?" the old shopkeeper asked with a doubting face.

"yes I can, here is 75 silver" Scout handed over a bag with 75 silvers in it.

"Well ill be damned, let me get them for you real quick." the old man then wandered off into the back and came back with 750 vials which Scout just stuffed in his inventory.

"Thank you very much" Scout bowed and left the store. Scout then went to the adventurers guild to turn in his quest. He got a decent amount of exp, but it was not enough for a level up, he did get a reward of 1 gold for exterminating the wolves, which not many can do. He then went to the market place and set up a stall to sell his potions, as he was making them, Scout was trying to sell them.

"Selling level 1 potions, cheaper than the ones in the store, only 40 copper each, come and get them before they run out!"

Scouts potion sold like hotcakes, after making the last one and selling it off, he got a notification.

Pharmacist level has increased to level 2, you can now create level 2 potions.

Scout was pleased and started to head back to the adventurers guild. When he got there he approached the desk and asked if there were any rooms available. The adventurers guild was like a tavern of some sorts, you can get quests, eat and drink, you can also rent rooms to sleep in.

"Do you have any rooms available?" Scout asked the young man working the counter.

"Yes we do." the young man lazily answered

"How much per night?"

"In our place its 15 silver per night if you are a white tiered adventurer. The higher your rank the cheaper it gets. So what rank are you?" The young man again lazily asked

"Lets see" Scout pulled out his adventurers card and was surprised that he was already a blue tiered adventurer, whats even more surprising that almost a quarter of his card is green. Scout knew that he had gotten stronger, but to think that he grew this much, he was astonished.

Scout then showed the lazy young man his card. Which the young man did not care for much.

"That will be 13 silver please." the young man said while pulling out his hand. Scout just handed over the money, he got a hefty amount from selling his potions.

"Heres your key sir, you have exactly 24 hours to give the key back"

"Thank you very much, so where can I get food around here?" Scout asked

"You see that window over there? You can buy food there" The man pointed lazily at a window about 10 meters away.

Scout walked over and approached the window and saw a bulky big woman inside a kitchen. The woman approached him and asked

"What can I get you young man?"

"What do you have to serve tonight?" Scout asked politely

"We got some grilled duck, some barbecued pork, some stew, oh and we also got some steamed fish. We also have vegetables for side, some mashed potatoes, bread, rice etc... So, what will you have?"

"Can I get 2 servings of barbecued pork a side of vegetables and rice please?"

"Big eater are ya?"

Scout just nodded.

This story originates from Royal Road. Ensure the author gets the support they deserve by reading it there.

"That will be 2 silver lad"

Scout handed the money and went over towards an empty stool in the bar, he then ordered 2 bottled beers which cost him 50 copper each. After finishing his first ice cold beer, Scout food arrived, he gulped it down, finished his beer and went to his room, when he got to his room, he laid down.

Ray then took off his gaming helmet and left the Egg. It was pretty much "AFK". He needed a little break. It was still morning, so he took a 2 hour nap. He did a slight exercise, ate some lunch, and took a shower. He turned on the TV and watched the Square One channel. 2 reporters were present, one female, while the other was male. The male then suddenly started talking.

"Urgent report, Peace negotiations are now happening between the kingdom of Chronos and Isris after a few skirmished broke out near their borders."

"Do you think the negotiations will be successful Tom?"

"I don't think so Mary, ever since the game started, tensions were already high between Chronos and Isris, we might just have an all out war break out deepening on how the 2 kings deal with the situation, If so, this may very well be the first war between kingdoms."

"But weren't there other wars already that happened in the game Tom?"

"Well yes of course, there were castle sieges and stuff like that, but a war this large? just think of all the players and NPCS that will fight to the death."

"Well its gonna be chaotic Tom"

"it sure will be Mary, and we, at Chanel Square One will be covering it."

"Yes we will Tom, this is Tom and Mary reporting you your daily updates. Happy gaming everyone"

Almost 3 hours had passed and Ray stepped inside his Egg and put on his helmet.

Scout woke up from his room and it checked his game time, 12 hours had passed and it was early morning. He went downstairs and turned in his key. He then approached the quest board, as he was skimming through the quests, something caught his eye it was a recruitment advertisement.

Got nowhere to go? No place to live? Free Wing Mercenaries are now hiring adventurers like you, we offer free board and free food, lots of work to do here if you need it be. Venture deep into the forest, and once you get out, you will see our headquarters.

This was a perfect opportunity for Scout, he did not really have a permanent residence, and since mercenaries get a lot of jobs, Scout would be able to utilize this for his adventure, adventuring while getting paid. Scout went to the general to the general goods store and bought more bread, butter and jelly.

Scout still had the wolf hides that he had gotten. So he decided to walk over to the tailor shop where an old lady was working.

"Can I help you with something young man?" The old lady asked while sowing some clothes.

"Yes, can you make me some leather out of these hides?" Scout took out his 50 leather hides.

"Some good material you got there young man, enough for me to make you a whole set, I can make you some white tiered armor with good stats, I can also make you some blue tiered set with even greater stats, its gonna cost you though."

"How much are they?" Scout asked with a  worried look on his face

"1 gold for a white set and 2 gold if you want a blue set"

Scout hesitated, but gave the old lady 2 gold.

"Thank you very much young man, now what color would you like them to be? They will turn out black"

"Black is fine, you don't have to trouble yourself with it."

"Okay, just wait here." The old lady then started working on the wolf hides like she was at her twenties, she was so fast fast that Scout didnt event know what was going on. After 5 minutes, the old lady was finished.

"Here you go young man" The old lady then handed Scout his new set of armor.

Black Leather MaskBlue tierDefense20Durability20/20Extra AttributesAgility + 1Level Requirements16A black mask made with black wolf hide

Scout was impressed, not only did he get a good amount of defense, he also had gotten 10 agility points, that was 2 levels worth.

Scout did not even stay 2 days in his starting town, which most people stay for at least 1 week or 2 before leaving. Scout then stepped out the gates, breathed in a huge amount of air.

"Its time to leave this town and start my journey anew, a new adventure awaits me"
