In the next morning Mine went to the restaurant of Julia. She greeted him with a smile and showed him his new workplace.
He would work from 7am – 10am in the kitchen to learn cooking and afterwards in the restaurant with the other staff.
His work shift ended at 6pm and after that he went to the tailor shop to get the tailor skill.
Ashley was a good teacher but sometimes she would say some crazy stuff about “feeling” the leather. Mine was happy that she didn’t strip to do so…
The week went by quite fast and he got both of his new skills to level 6 and his Mana mastery to level 11. It slowed down extremely after it hit level 10 but now he could use the Mana of his environment and he slowly started to get the elements right.
He now could use the fire and earth element. But no big scale magic.
*Well I made enough money to get food for at least 15 weeks. Now I can start with the repair and blacksmith skills.
Mine went to the smithy whom he knew was at the other side of the castle.
In there he saw the dwarf who was with Ashly and the instructor in the training hall at the other day.
“How can I help you?” asked the dwarf.
“Good day Sir. My name is MineTree and I would like to learn the art of blacksmithing.”
“And why would you need it? You don’t seem like a blacksmith to me.” He asked curios.
“Well. I´ll need it to maintain my gear and make some myself.” Said Mine.
“Wait. You are the kid from that time right? You know… the incident at the training hall.”
“… that´s… right.”
“Oh. The genius Gark told me about. Alright, come in. I´ll teach you the basics of blacksmithing. And my name is Argon.” Said Argon as he turned to the next anvil. “Now come here. I´m a busy dwarf.”
So Mine spent one week inside the smithy and got both, the repair and the blacksmithing skill at level 8
[p=left]Repair Level 8 16%
Repair every items durability.
2% of its maximum durability will be lost.(-1% every lvl)[/p]
[p=left]Blacksmithing Level 8 11%
Make your own gear. (Not much to say on that one… not that I ever said much.)
+ 16% fire resistance
+ 24 strengh[/p]
His Mana mastery also got to lvl 12 and he is now able to chant spells with the 5 basic elements (air, earth, fire, water, lightning) but has no clue how to use the holy and dark spells. *Guess I have to see one first or get someone who can tell me how they work.*
He may be a genius but no one can use what you don’t understand.
He sold the weapons and armor he made and made enough money to buy some iron and leather. With that he made himself two katanas and a leather set.

“Alright. I´m ready to set off. It´s time for some action. Later I´ll need a class too… Oh well…”
And with that MineTree made his first step out of the city.

The player will get more benefits the higher his skill Level "dragon form" is.[/p]
With a level of 0 and stats of at least level 80 he was a bit overpowered but the mobs didn’t know that…
The first monster he saw was a small dog.
…
“Beth?”
-“Yes master?”
-“What´s the thing about the dog?”
-“Ehm… that’s the lowest level monster master.”
-“Do you want me to delete you?”
-“I´m sorry master. I- I didn’t want to do that. It´s just so that the NPCs abounded to many dogs and their population grew so much that they are now seen as monsters.”
-“Change that. Now.”
-“Ok master. Are rabits fine?”
-“Yeah. Just… just no dogs.”
A few seconds later the dogs were all replaced by small rabbits.
“That´s better. Now I can go berserk…”
And he did. He killed every rabbit in his reach and the ones he couldn’t get he killed with a fire ball or another element.
Soon some of the other players tried inviting him in their party but Mine would just shoot some fire balls at their feet and they would run.
After he hit level one something unexpected happened.
[p=left]You gained a new racial benefit
Every time you level up all your stats will gain 1 point extra.[/p]
*Hm. Did I make the game to easy? It seems so since I one hit mobs who are 15 level above me… Well never mind.*
Unauthorized use: this story is on Amazon without permission from the author. Report any sightings.
Mine started his killing spree with the newly spawned rabbits after them he killed some foxes but they were way too easy to kill so finally went to the level 15 wolfs.
Once he set foot into the forest the first wolf attacked him.
The wolf jumped at him trying to bite his head off but mine just slashed at it. He hit its head and split the wolf in two parts.
Fatal hit!
You leveled up!
You leveled up!
You leveled up!
“Wow. That was fast.”
He killed another wolf and got level 5
One of your racial benefits was updated.
For every level you gain you gain extra 10 points per stat.
*Well… let´s get level 10 and see what that whit that Partial dragon form.
And so Mine hunted some more wolfs till he got level 10.
[p=left]The skill Partial Dragon form is now unsealed![/p]
[p=left]You gained a new racial benefit[/p]
As Mine read the new benefit of his race his face went pale.
“You got to be kidding me!”
**********************************
“Sigh… Since when did the world get so boring?”
Mike Tyson laid on his couch. He was bored. Really bored.
*I have nothing to do… Hell I can’t even train at the gym since these new guys came. Why the f*ck can´t they just concentrate at their own training and stop bothering me?* He thought as he watched the news.
After a few minutes he was just about to turn the TV off as something interesting happened.
There was a broadcast about a guy who made a new game. A game where you are in a new world and can do whatever you want.
He didn´t think much. His guts told him that he should buy the game. His guts were never wrong so he did it without hesitation. Well he had more than enough money so how much could 300 bugs damage him?
A few hours later his bell rang. As he opened the door a young man handed him a big package.
“What is this?” Asked Mike.
“Well mister Tyson. This is your helmet for the new game Royal Road.” Said the man.
“But… I bought it just a few hours ago. How can it be here so fast?”
“We have a instant delivery for the first week. The creator of the helmet said so and sent a few million helmets to the main post station here so it could be delivered fast. He apparently has loads of money to do so. Well, have fun with the game Sir.” Said the man with a small smile as he went away.
*… Heck… Well whatever. I still need to wait a day to be able to play… I can as well go sleep a bit and then go to the gym.*
The next morning Mike woke up at 1pm. The game server already opened 7 hours earlier.
“Then let´s get started.” Said Mike as he equipped the helmet.
-The scan at your iris and vain has determined that you are a new player. Do you want to create a new account?-
“Yes.” *What a question tsts*
-Please select the name you want to give your character.-
*Now how should I name myself? I won´t use my real name…*
“Iron” *My nickname should do.*
-Please select your race. Right now only the three main races are available: Human, Elf and Beast.-
“Human.” *I´m monster enough haha…*
-Do you want to do changes on your appearance?-
“Yes. Please make me look 20 years younger and change my eye color to silver.”
-Done. Since at the moment there is only one starting city available you will be sent to Noxvill. Do you wish to proceed with the tutorial?-
“Yes.”
The tutorial was pretty informative. It taught Iron about the many windows and his new body.
As the tutorial ended everything around him went white and a split second later he stood in a busy town square.
He knew he couldn’t leave the city for the next month so he checked his inventory and character window.

(Again. The game takes the information of a person so it knew that he was way stronger than your average human…)
*Hm… Now what should I do? I can ask some people how to get stronger.*
Iron look around and saw a old man sitting on a small wall.
Iron got a good feeling with the man. He knew that he was something special. He always knew if someone was special. He had seen enough strong old man to know when he saw the next.
Without hesitation he went to the old man.
“Hello Sir. Excuse me but do you know a place where I can train my body? I´m new here and don´t know where to look.”
“Sure lad. Go to the training hall. But if I´m correct you don’t want to hone your sword skills right?”
“That´s right Sir. My weapons are my fists and nothing else.”
The old man showed a slight smile before he said “Good. Come with me. I know where someone like you should train.”
The old man led them to a building near the walls of the city.
“Welcome to my humble home. Before I show you where to train I would like to ask you if you would like to become my apprentice. If you say no I can´t let you enter.”
New quest.
[p=left]A mysterious old master has offered you a special training if you become his new apprentice.
Follow the training and you will be rewarded with a stronger body and mind then you can imagine.
Difficulty: unknown
Rewards:
A special training, unimaginable strength
Requirements:
Must have a stronger body at the beginning of the game.
The old master must see something in you.
Must prefer to fight with only your fists
You can´t fail this quest, only give up.[/p]
*Hm. So this is a quest… And he wants to be my master? Well… why not?*
“Ok. I accept, master”
“Good but don´t call me master. I´m your trainer. There is no master in my profession even if some people call me that.”
“May I ask what your profession is?”
“That´s easy. I´m a Boxer.”
With that Irons eyes shined bright. *So there is even the profession of a boxer here yeah? Alright, let´s roll it!*
And so his training began.
