War Online

Chapter 6: Leaving the Beginner village

The next day, after Williard woke up at sharp 5 A.M., he immediately called Aster to ask the progress while expecting Aster might be at least level 15 by now as Willard knew that reaching level 20 isn't that easy for a loner like him, not to mention with an additional task on his hands.

He was greatly surprised when he heard that Aster was already level 21 and a total of 50 helpers are hired, although most of them are just street thugs and from small gangs, who are under the control of the Scarlet group.

And the remaining 6 to 7 members are just graduated college and high school students with no proper job.

After disconnecting the call, Williard spoke to himself, "I greatly underestimated Aster and Scarlet Security Company's influence in this city. Not only he managed to level up, but he also managed to find 50 helpers and sent all of the capsules at midnight; a good subordinate, indeed.

Well, dad wouldn't put my life in anyone's hands, after all. Speaking of which, there are only three weeks left. Should I call dad and insist to go for a vacation with him in secret during that time? It might be the only way to save him."

Putting his worries aside, he entered the capsule and log in to the game. As soon as he logged in, he received a friend request from "Shadow Blade."

"Oh, it's Aster," as he accepted the friend request, he sent a voice message, "I'm sending you the coordinates. Call everyone else and tell them to gather here."

A while later, the player who was standing beside him all along asked in a surprise, "Eh? You are the young master?"

As he looked aside, he saw a very muscular and tall looking teenager. Williard asked him, "Are you one of the hired helpers?"

The teenager enthusiastically nodded and replied while shaking his hands, "yes, thank you for offering me this job and saved me from getting kicked out by our landlord. My name is Nathan Smith. It's a pleasure to work for the Young Master."

Williard smiled while looking at this naive and simple looking teenager and shook his hand. Ten minutes later, Aster and all the fifty members gathered at the spot.

As everyone thought Williard looked very ordinary, not looking like an heir of a big company like Scarlet and the scary Mafia group behind that, Aster said, "Young Master, you changed your appearance drastically. I can't even recognize you anymore."

Williard snorted, "I would be a fool to use my real appearance to leave a mark on my head so openly."

Then, he looked at them and further said, "I guess every one of you here knows what your job is, right? Let me remind you just in case. In short, if I say you kill, then you will kill and if I say you die, then you die without any complaints. And don't address me as the Young master. Address me as Boss or Leader. Understood?"

As everyone nodded, Williard dismissed the thought of looking for quests and headed to a wilderness area where level 5 monsters appear. As soon as the players saw a huge group looking like ruffians from their appearances leading by a level 21 player, they instantly cleared the area even before they were being warned.

Upon reaching the spot, Williard divided the group into two. One group was sent to level up together and the other group of 25 was told to gather monsters at one spot so that he can get the last hit and claim all the EXP.

After reaching Level 10 Zone, Aster warned everyone else to clear the field. Those who even dared to oppose it lightly were killed off by him quickly scaring the others away. Then, the two groups switched their roles while Williard kept on leveling up while flying in the air and hitting the monsters with fireball spell using minimum effort.

Six hours later,

Williard, who was flying in the air above a level 20 Orc Elite Boss, conjured a Big Fireball using his Bronze grade Staff and hit it while the players are wondering how was their Boss keep on flying in the air all the time. Luckily, a critical appeared on its head and the Orc collapsed on the floor. It disappeared quickly leaving behind a bunch of equipment and coins.

Meanwhile, he received two notifications.

"Congratulations on reaching level 20. Head to the Village chief to receive the pass and leave the village"

"Congratulations, Your Fireball skill reached level 10. The maximum level reached. Check out the skills panel to see the details."

Then, he went towards the equipment that dropped and checked out the Staff that was shining.

Orc Staff (+0)

After taking the staff and equipping it on his back, between the wings, Williard looked at everyone and said, "Good job, everyone. The rest of the equipment and the coins are yours. You are free now."

After dismissing them, he looked at Aster, who congratulated him for reaching level 20 and gaining a Silver Weapon, and said, "You are also dismissed. I will play alone for now."

As he bowed and went away, Williard looked at his stats.

After reporting to Village chief and getting a pass that'll make him a citizen of Llyne Kingdom, Williard thought, "now, the next step is to increase my flight speed."

Then, as he added all of the points into Agility, he received a bunch of notifications as the Agility reached 100 and the + symbol beside it disappeared. Williard mumbled, "Hmm, I guess I need to reach level 50 to increase the limit. Well, it doesn't matter, anyway."

Then, he opened his stats to see the changes. Everything remained the same except a few,

Flying Speed: 200 (260)

Then, Willard flapped his wings and flew towards the East Ocean City with his new speed and landed before the entrance as flying isn't allowed in Cities. As he entered the city, he received a notification that he is now a citizen of Llyne Kingdom's East Ocean City.

As he turned around and thinking of leaving in search of that hidden Island right away, suddenly, all the players in the world heard an announcement.

"Ten players have reached level 50 all over the world. The ranking system is opened."

Then, everyone received the option of hiding their name. As everyone chose their option, Williard opened the rankings with a shock on his face, "not even 48 hours passed even in this game world. Just who are those crazy monsters that reached level 50 within such little time?"

Not only, was Williard, everyone else, also interested to see just who those but their hopes met with disappointment as it displayed neither world rankings nor even their Kingdom rankings. It's just the player rankings in their City.

As Williard looked at the rankings, he saw.

East Ocean City Rankings:

Rank 1- Flame Emperor- level 41

Rank 2- Snow Dew- level 38

Rank 3- Unnamed- level 38

Rank 4- Unnamed- level 37

Rank 5- White Tiger- level 35

Rank 6754- Time Traveler- level 20

He shrugged his shoulders and mumbled, "These rankings won't matter once I reach my first goal. Legend Class, here I come."
