Chapter 60: First Steps in Town


    Once the coin touched the ground, the ground trembled faintly before a small gate emerged from the ground. It was nearly five meters in length and three in width, enough for two people to pass through it easily.


    Once it emergedpletely from the ground, its two doors opened spontaneously to show a world of white fog inside it. I looked to Shin who just nodded, so I moved steadily to it then passed through the fog.


    Once I entered, the fog surrounded me as I lost sight of anything except for this fog.


    "Do you wish to leave this dungeon back to the game world?"


    A majestic voice emerged suddenly from this fog that surprised me, but I replied at once:


    "Yes, I killed the two boss monsters in the dungeon and cleared it."


    "I see, so where do you want to go? Your current level can make you go to the town, or do you prefer to go back to your novice vige?"


    "I want to go to the town, please."


    "Permission granted, you will move in five seconds. Good luck future Guild Master."


    Suddenly I felt a jolt in my body when I heard these words from that mysterious voice. Before I could even speak, I was surrounded by more dense fog that made my senses go numb for a moment.


    When I opened my eyes again, I found myself standing in a big square that had a fountain in its centre. There was a statue of a man waving a huge hammer towards his illusionary enemies.


    That statue reminded me of the one at the novice vige which was the first thing I saw back then when I entered the game. and now, when I entered the town, this much bigger statue weed me again.


    I thought back about that mysterious voice identity, he didn''t seem that dangerous to me, or at least he didn''t harbor ill intentions.


    His knowledge of my possession of the guild master token made me feel some fear and doubt. I looked around me to find some yers moving in a hurry through the streets of this town.


    ''I wasn''t the first one toe here then, that''s interesting.''


    I thought I would be the first, or even the second one to enter the town. After all, I leveled up crazily with my team, and I doubted anyone to be just as lucky as we were, but it seemed now I was totally mistaken. I took a deep breath as I tried to calm my chaotic thoughts.


    This town was a much bigger theatre than the vige, so it was logical to have morepetitors and more challenges. I felt the urge to go out there and level up like these yers, but I held myself back as I had to wait for my team to gather up.


    My waitsted for half an hour then I found my teams appearing one by one next to me, while a look of sadness appeared strangely on their faces.


    "What happened?" I asked as I ran towards them. Shin looked at me in daze at first, then his looks changed to be full of happiness as he said excitedly:


    "Thank god you are alive. I thought they managed to get you," Shin said.


    "We all thought so, I''m happy you are ok," Goda said.


    "Thank god you are fine," Mony said.


    "It''s our little princess indeed, she can make miracles happen," Snad said.


    "" Grendy said.


    "Our princess is really mighty," Heda said.


    "What the hell are you all talking about?" I said while looking at all these lunatics with doubt.


    "Wait a minute, don''t tell me you didn''t go back to the vige and face those huge armies of crazy yers that were surrounding the ce where we left from?" Shin asked with stupefied look, which I matched while replying to him:


    "Did you choose to go back to the vige? Are you nuts? It''s obvious what you should choose!"


    "What choice? We were sent directly back to the vige," Goda said.


    "And there we were met with huge numbers of yers who attacked us," Snad said.


    "We died and resurrected at the vige, it was awful to lose one level and some of the fancy equipment we got from the dungeon," Mony said.


    "We didn''t have time to look for you, so we used the scrolls we had toe here," Heda said.


    "How did youe here? Did you move here directly from the dungeon gate?" Shin said with doubt.


    "" Grendy said.


    I listened to their story as I felt more shock at what happened to them. it was obvious then, that sound that I heard was only meant for me. no one of them met that mysterious voice, which made me wonder if that happened because I had the Guild Master token.


    If so, then this Guild Master position was really on a whole different level than any other rank. I took a deep breath as I thought again about what they said.


    "Wait a minute, did you guys get killed?"


    "Yes, Shin is now in level 12 while the rest of us are level 11," Goda answered with a look of sorrow over his face.


    "It''s not only that, we also lost some equipment that we got from the dungeon," Heda added.


    "How much equipment did you guys lose?" I asked while trying to know how deep the loss was this time.


    "We lost totally 4 pieces, it''s not that big of a deal, we can raise up again and these equipment would be dropped off when we pass level 25," Shin tried tofort everyone and minimize the loss effects over them. I also joined him while saying:


    "Don''t lose hope guys, don''t forget we can enter that dungeon anytime we want, so we can always get these fancy equipment all the time."


    The looks of everyone changed to the better, which made me feel more relieved. Everyone then looked around them to explore this new ce, while Shin asked with uncertainty:


    "We aren''t the first ones toe here, right?"


    I looked around us to find a couple of yers moving away in the distant streets while saying:


    "Yes, I also felt surprised when I came here. I spotted over 30 yers so far, so I guess we aren''t that unique after all."


    "Sigh, those aristocratic families have ways to make their yers rise rapidly," Mony said.


    "Don''t forget those famous adventure groups, they also have some backups," Snad added.


    "Anyway, let''s forget about them and focus on what we should do next. Shin, any ideas?"


    I looked at shin as the rest of my team did. shin then said simply:


    "The first step in any town is to go to your specific training hall. There, you will get approved for upgrading your ss to match with your level."


    "Can I use the secret ss legacy there?" I asked with impatience and excitation, but Shin shook his head as he replied:


    "You need a higher ranked NPC than the one you will meet there. just let''s finish this process to finally be considered part of this town. We will then meet here after we all finish this."
