Hellsky, WinterLove, and SnowMaiden were innocently sitting in front of the cave, while players around them didn't dare to approach them.
Instead, they were getting impatient and wanted for that runt to die already!
But then... A shocking Announcement came.
*Ding*
[Regional Announcement: Player Wraith has achieved First Clear of the Solo Dungeon Swornword. Recorded in Swornword Hall of Fame]
Everyone heard weird dinging noise, but Hellsky, WinterLove, and SnowMaiden knew what this sound meant.
They turned their heads towards the sky and had the widest smile possible.
Their tiny mouths were stretched so much that it was thought to be impossible.
The players looked towards the sky and widened their eyes in shock.
''How?!''
''How did he do it when Kornelius couldn't?!''
''Was he actually a Level 10 player?!''
''Was he Beta Tester and has played the Dungeon before?!''
Loud shouts of disbelief echoed in the forest.
Hellsky, WinterLove, and SnowMaiden knew that Wraith wasn't Beta Tester.
''He is awesome,'' SnowMaiden said with sparkling eyes.
''He must have reached Level 10 there... Girls, let's finish this Dungeon quickly!'' Hellsky said with excitement.
''Aye!'' The two girls shouted.
Hellsky entered the Dungeon without waiting for other players.
''Hey, why did she go?!'' The players noticed Hellsky entering the Dungeon and were enraged.
Now they knew that the Dungeon can be beaten, and after every Clear, prizes were getting worse.
SnowMaiden and WinterLove looked at each other and sighed.
They unsheathed their weapons and had innocent smiles on their faces.
Soon, the area around the cave was filled with the sound of manly screams.
...
Isaac was walking on a stone road, and the destination was the Gates of Stronglord.
He had dozens of players and NPC's in front of him.
All the players Isaac saw had iron armor and proper weapons.
While Isaac looked quite different with his simple leather armor and the pouches on his waist.
Isaac had to wait for another 10 minutes until it was his turn.
The Guard was NPC with Level 60, with a stoic-looking face. He looked at Isaac and had a small smile.
Isaac looks like his little sister, except his sister is less pretty.
''Fee to enter the City is 5 White Coins.'' The Guard said gently.
5 White Coins appeared on Isaac's palm, and he gave them to the Guard.
''Enjoy your stay.'' The Guard bowed and let Isaac enter.
Players after Isaac thought that the Guard wasn't too bad, and their nervousness disappeared.
But the Guard wasn't as nice to others, he looked very stern, and his muscular voice made everyone timid.
Isaac looked around the City, and it looked even more beautiful than in the Underlord's stream.
There were even women who looked like noble's walking in the streets. They had beautiful dresses and wore lot of jewelry.
All of them looked pretty lovely as well. The male Players around the noble ladies almost drooled, but then a few noblemen came and pushed the players away and started flirting with the noble ladies.
The Players looked enraged, but then they saw the noble's levels.
All of them were around 80-100!
The Players' rage disappeared, and they quickly moved out of the way.
Isaac kept walking in the streets, and soon he saw a map of the City in the wall.
The map showed three layers in the City.
Isaac was currently in the Outer Layer.
The second Layer was called Noble Layer. It is where noble's live, but they also visit Outer Layer often.
The third Layer was called Royal Layer. It is where the Royal Palace was located.
But the Royal Layer was quite weird because it was located in the mountains, and the mountain was located in the middle of the Stronglord.
The Royal Palace was located on top of the mountain, and they could see everything clearly from there.
*Ding* *Ding*
Isaac opened his Interface and his Map.
The map now had two places.
Swornword village and the Stronglord City!
Isaac looked around the map and found what he was looking for.
The Weapon Store!
He likes his Flintlock pistol, but it is time to get a better one.
He has 12k White Coins to be used, after all!
Isaac walked in the streets for half an hour until he reached a two-floor building with a sword and shield symbol on the door.
He entered the door and saw a muscular man sitting in front of the desk, while quite a lot players were looking at the weapons, and the second floor was completely empty.
Isaac started looking at the weapons, and every weapon was better than in Swornword!
He kept looking for guns but didn't find any.
Isaac bit his soft lip and approached the muscular man.
''Excuse me?'' Isaac asked with a slightly nervous tone.
He really doesn't want to be banned again!
The muscular man turned his head towards the beautiful figure in front of him.
''Yes?''
Isaac looked at the nametag above the man.
[Rufus - The Strong Owner]
Isaac gulped, ''Is here any... Guns selling?''
''The second floor,'' Rufus said simply.
Isaac took a breath of relief and nodded.
He climbed all the way to the second floor and finally saw guns!
He saw Flintlock pistols, but he ignored them, even though they were better ones.
One gun interested him greatly.
[Musket (Rare) - 75,000 White Coins]
''75!'' Isaac almost passed out.
He resisted his tears and went back to his trusty Flintlock pistols.
[Flintlock Pistol (Uncommon) - 3200 White Coins]
[Flintlock Pistol: Reload 18 Seconds - 2 Shot Ammo Capacity - Flintlock Bullets Needed!]
''Well, it's better.'' Isaac took the Flintlock Pistol and went back to the first floor.
He bought the gun and exited the Weapon Store.
Isaac had now two Flintlock Pistols.
For some reason, you cannot buy two at the same rank ones, but two different you can.
'I wonder if the damage is greater...' Isaac thought to himself and decided his next destination.
The Armory.
He wanted better armor, and now it was an excellent time to buy.
He walked for another ten minutes and arrived at the beautiful building with three floors, dozens of glass windows showing the interior of the shop, and beautiful-looking armors on the wall.
Isaac entered the shop and started his journey to find better armor.
