"Ohhh!" Seeing the words on the panel, Mike nodded his head and checked the surrounding. He found himself in the middle of the road. It was a small road in the middle of the ground. There were few trees around but nothing sort of a forest.
He glanced at tall walls covering surrounding thousands of meters in a circle. He decided to move towards those walls, thinking that would be the City of Athens. He was surprised to find that he was teleported outside the city instead of inside.
"Status!" At the same time, he called out for the status.
"Hunter- Mike Tyson
Cultivation- Soldier Realm- First Stage (Early State)
EXP- 0/100 (For level-up)
Wealth- Nil"
"Nothing else!" Mike was startled by such a short status. But he didn't prey to too much into the details. He simply ignored the status and moved towards the City of Athens. It took him two hours to reach the front of the City of Athens.
The walls were covering the city and few people were standing in front of the small gates. Glancing at them, he could feel the difference. And more importantly, there was a green arrow in their head. He didn't know whether he had it or not.
But everything was clear when he reached near the gate. The guards wearing silver armor saw his arrival and saluted "Welcome to the City of Athens, hunter!"
"Is this your first time here?" The silver armor guard asked with enthusiasm on his face. He was a normal middle-aged man with black hair and a black pupil.
"Yes!" Mike replied with a slight smile on his face.
"Would you like to register your identity?" The silver armor guard asked with a friendly smile.
"Yes!" Mike nodded his head and replied.
"Would you like to make a permanent registration or temporary?" The silver armor guard asked.
"Can you explain about these registrations?" Since Mike didn't have much knowledge, he thought asking him would be a good choice. After all, he doesn't want to be locked up in prison if he breaks any laws. But considering this world, there shouldn't be any kinds of laws like the laws on earth.
"Permanent Registration needs time to be completed and there are several pieces of information you must reveal. While temporary registration doesn't need any kind of information except the name. With permanent registration, you can enter any cities in the Divine Fire Continent."
"But with temporary registration, you can only enter one city. That same registration won't be another one. At the same time, you can use temporary registration to access many secrets of the city while you can do everything with permanent registration."
'Divine Fire Continent? Interesting! Does this mean there are many other continents in this world?' Mike understood the difference but his attention shifted towards something else. He thought this would be a normal vast land filled with thousands of dungeons but he seemed to be proven wrong.
"I would like to complete Permanent Registration." Mike didn't ask the guard anything about the Divine Fire Continent rather he chose to enter the city first. Only after registration, he could truly enter the city.
"Please come with me!" The guard in silver armor nodded his head and led him towards the small tent near the gate. After they reached in front of the tent, the silver armor guard entered the tent and came out with a black stone and golden pen.
He also took out a table and two chairs, where he and Mike sit opposite each other. The guard put the stone on the table and suddenly pressed his hand. Mysteriously that stone flattened by the press of his hand.
'Is that a stone?' Mike couldn't believe the scene in front of him and asked himself with some doubts on his mind.
"Your name?" The guard asked him with a mild tone while holding the golden pen in his right hand.
"Mike Tyson" Hearing his name, the guard wrote it on the black stone. When he write Mike's name, it was written in golden color, shining brightly.
"Age?"
"18"
"Superpower?"
"Brute Force"
"Cultivation?"
"Soldier Realm First Stage (Early)"
"Gender"
"…..Male"
"Blood Type?"
"A"
"Are you a virgin?"
"...….What kind of question is this?" Finally, Mike couldn't bear this question and shouted while standing up. He was embarrassed to answer it. His face turned red.
"It is indeed Virgin." The silver guard didn't care about his attitude and wrote the truth. He could see whether he was a virgin or not just from the glance.
"...…" Mike speechlessly sat down. He felt this process was a mess-up. He was asked everything and that even includes his grandfather's name. After ten minutes of the complete registration process, he was sent away with a tattoo imprint on his arm.
Of course, this tattoo can be hidden, and usually, it's hidden by the hunter. If he doesn't like wasting his time, he can directly enter the dungeon. But Mike still entered the city of Athens. Before he entered, he was given fifty bronze coins.
It was a kind of wealth system for most of the games where bronze coins were the lowest currency and gold coins were the highest. Here, thousand bronze coins were equal to a single silver coin and a thousand silver coins were equal to a single gold coin.
After passing through the gate, he felt he had come to a completely different world. It wasn't a modern rather an ancient designed city. NPC was everywhere and the same goes for hunters. There were many hunters and among them, everyone had a different outfit.
Their outfit was the same outfit they came in with. Mike was wearing loose pants and a red t-shirt. He walks while gazing everywhere. He noticed everything around him was just like the ancient worlds in those novels.
Rooftop buildings, small shops, people gossiping everywhere, and the city filled with noise. Mike wasn't interested in these things. He wasn't sure what he can buy with fifty bronze coins but when he heard the loud noises, he caught few things.
"Welcome! Welcome! Welcome! Buy two get one free offer for Health Potions only for twenty bronze coins."
"Welcome! Welcome! Welcome! Buy two get one free offer for Rage Potions only for twenty bronze coins."
"Welcome! Welcome! Welcome! F-Rank Fighting Arts only for twenty bronze coins."
Hearing these, he was slightly stunned. All of these people were NPC but looking at their enthusiasm, he felt he has come to a sales mall. Even so, not all players were buying. Some were poor, some weren't interested, only a few people were buying those.
Of course, he wasn't interested in buying those either. While strolling around, he saw a shop with a banner 'World Map'. Suddenly this gains his interest. Mike walked towards the shop and saw a short middle-aged man with a brown beard sitting on the chair.
"Do you have the map of this world?" Seeing the lazy shopkeeper, Mike started a conversation politely.
"Didn't you see the banner? You can all kinds of the map here." The shopkeeper's tone was a little grumpy but Mike didn't care. He looked around and saw the price list of the maps.
Map of Nine Continents- 100 Bronze Coins
Map of Divine Fire Continent – 50 Bronze Coins
Map of Yellow Dragon Mountain – 25 Bronze Coins
Map of Thunder King Plain – 25 Bronze Coins
Map of Demon Dog Forest – 25 Bronze Coins
Map of Ten Core Cities – 50 Bronze Coins
Map of Three Forbidden Dungeons – 200 Bronze Coins
Map of Azure Mountain Range – 500 Bronze Coins
(Note: The price are for the general maps. A detailed map will cost higher.)
"….Umm! Shopkeeper, among Yellow Dragon Mountain, Thunder King Plain, and Demon Dog Forest, which would be best for hunting monsters in the dungeons?" Mike couldn't decide directly, so he hesitates for a moment and finally asked the shopkeeper.
The shopkeeper looked at Mike from top to bottom making him embarrassed and finally said "You will die the moment you step on any of those."
"Ehhh!" Mike was surprised by his words. He didn't understand what he meant because his thoughts were a little different than reality.
"Monsters do not live inside the dungeon. They walk out and roam around these places. If you step on one of those places, they can instantly discover you and kill you." The shopkeeper stood up while explaining to him. He went a little back and grabbed two scrolls.
The shopkeeper walked in front of Mike and opened the scroll, saying "These two are the maps of Goblin Hunting Forest and Undead Forest. Total for these maps would cost you ten bronze coins."
Spreading his hand, he asked for money while passing the maps to him. He didn't even consider whether Mike would accept or not. Because he knew Mike would unless Mike is a complete idiot.
Mike was a little stunned by the shopkeeper's straight behavior, with an embarrassed face, he took out ten bronze coins. Each coin was the size of an inch in diameter. Taking those maps, he turned around and walked out. But suddenly, his movement stopped after hearing the shopkeeper's words.
"Don't venture too deep without raid party and proper strength! Although strength matters in this society, life matters more!"
His words left a deep impression on Mike's heart. Before Mike took a step further, he turned back and gave a slight bow. He doesn't care whether the shopkeeper was NPC or not, he only knows every novel has old or messy or grumpy or lazy people who might be one of the strongest people in the world.
