Prologue IV: 'Walking Around'

Tiantus city. The central city, known like this for it’s stand not only by its geography in the center of a huge plain, but for it’s commerce. This city had no apparent conflict, neither rivality with any other race, or city. Since it’s like this, it grow as much as it can.

This city had a faint army, since the own game system doesn’t allow PvP inside the city, except if it is a event. The royal family of this city was just appearance aswell, the main force of this city were the commercial guild, yet all of them were loyal to the royal family.

Houses shaped in the western medieval way, beige towers, mansions, shops and open grounds for training, this was Tiantus city.

When Genric felt the ground beneath his feet. The place he spawned was different, the ground was more grey and there was a arc. Genric doesn’t needed introductions, this was a portal gate. He walked out of the portal platform and looked around.

‘Ehhh. So this is Tiantus ? Doesn’t look very different from the main city of Project Rebirth. Firsts things first. Inventory.’

Just with the thought of opening the inventory a yellowish board with red and golden margins appeared right in front of him. Others couldn’t see it of course. In the board there were twenty six empty slots, while there was four occupied slots with 2 bottles of water, three breads, one Tiantus city map, and lastly a letter, but when Genric tried to open the letter a red board appeared on top of the inventory screen.

*This item is a time item. It can only be open at a certain time: 05:32:46 left.*

‘Hmm. A time item ? Probably just a message from the server giving welcome and a bonus item.’

Below all the empty slots there were four symbols, which appeared to be a gold coin, silver coin, copper coin and lastly bronze coin in this sequence. In the inventory was only one copper  and fifty bronze coins. One gold coin was worth one hundred silver coins. One silver coin was worth one hundred copper coins. And one copper coin was worth one hundred bronze coins.

‘For now I won’t mess with money, in early level I’ll live with what the monster drops, then and only then I’ll start doing some kind of spending money with armor and potion, other than food. Hmmm what career should I seek ?’

Before Genric could stroll around the city, he looked to his actual gear. For now it was just a dark shirt, black leather pants, black shoes and a set of black leather gloves.

The story has been stolen; if detected on Amazon, report the violation.

‘Maybe it is too edge to wear this all along. Probably it’s the initial fallen angel clothes, they don’t even appear as equipped items, so they don’t have any commercial valour, or armor rate. Well it’s not like I don’t like it. At least I’ll store the gloves.’

Genric kept walking along the city, glancing at every person that passed by him, humans, elves, dwarfs, demons, angels, golens, succubus, gnomes, half animals, etc. There was absolutely any person with a powerful armor, or high level, the game had started just a couple of hours ago.

‘Alright, if the developers did this city thinking about Meria, the main city in ‘Project Rebirth’, then I should go to the training grounds and talk to the owner, he maybe will have a quest for me… Or food.’

“Come and see our armors, the best for beginners!”

“The finest food in all Tiantus!”

“Hey boy, do you wanna play with me ? Hihihi.”

“Oi! You there want to party with me ?”

“I’m looking for capable people to join my team.”

“Aaaahhh. I ran out of food! Why am I always so glutton…”

‘Sure. Everything is lively. Well, none of my concern. By the way, I should check out my race skill tree. Skill Tree Race.’

Different from the yellowish board, this time a grey board with a faint glowing blue margins popped out. On the top was standing.

‘So it’s like this, I can’t even see what those skills do. Hm, fine. I guess I won’t be changing character so soon. People who change characters and play with a new one often are just low in creativity.’

“Hey sir, can you help me ? I am a beginner. And you look to be experienced by your looks.” That voice came from a girl, everything in her was exuding beauty and fragility. An elf girl, a short one, with green eyes, smooth skin and long blond hair.

‘Looks like someone spent quite time creating its model, maybe more than me.’

“Hm ? What do you mean by that ?”

“Well, this is my first time playing an adventure game. So I’m thinking if you could help me.”

“Ehhh… How about no ?”

“Eh ? Why ? Do you hate me ? Or…”

“Or nothing... I simply don’t trust ya. Think with me. A pretty girl comes out of nowhere, by my clothes I am obviously a beginner, you are just asking me to farm items for you. No, thank you.” With any more eye contact Genric walked away from the elf.

“Ah! Wait… It’s not like that…” But Genric’s ears were already closed for her.
