Hiro decided to end his grinding session. He didn’t want to be late to participate in the game’s very first event. Even though he already knew from Anonymous what kind of games would be held in the event, his victory would still rely on him completely.
As he expected, Beginner Town was already full of other players when he arrived. After all, who would want to be left out of such a big event?
Hiro looked around. Fortunately, no investigators were present. It seemed that they were only allowed to investigate at certain hours.
“Ahhh—NightFall!” a girl who came with a group of other sexy elves suddenly squealed when she noticed Hiro looking around.
Hearing the girl’s squeal, countless pairs of eyes instantly looked toward her before shifting his way. Most of them were in awe, but not few were displeased and even envious.
“Hehe.” Hiro didn’t know how to respond to the five elf girls approaching him together. Two of them had even begun scrambling to hold his hands, making him feel a little stuffy and warm.
“So cute!” a tall girl with only a long leaf circling her chest to cover it had leaned forward to Hiro’s face.
Hiro was helpless. The town square was already filled with players, and he had no chance of running.
“Is he the rumored CBT player?”
“The real one?”
“Looks weak.”
“My body is better.”
“Is he underage?”
“How old is he?”
Hiro could feel his eyelids beat upon hearing the whispers. He genuinely didn’t know what to do.
A CBT player. Were CBT players so popular on the server for them to be so amazed?
After talking about him for a bit, most of the crowd’s attention quickly shifted to another direction before they began talking again.
“Wow look at them!”
“Do they come from the royal family or something?”
This piqued Hiro’s curiosity, prompting him to peek from the gaps in the dense crowd.
His pupils instantly contracted when he saw who they were talking about.
Libe?
Liberty was walking with four other players. All of them had different auras compared to other players, and it was apparent from how expensive and high-quality the costumes they wore were.
A party?
As if she wanted to avoid all the gazes on her, Liberty walked with her face down. On her waist was a faintly gleaming white holster where the Hellsing Whisper was.
At the same time, a tall black-haired man was hugging her shoulder as he walked by her side, forcing other players to make way for the five of them to cut in line until they arrived at the very front of the line at the town square.
‘Who is that?’ Hiro couldn’t see the man’s face.
[Level 23. Ace. Barbarian. Beast of Gevaudan]
Seeing another person hugging Liberty’s shoulder like that, Hiro could feel his chest tighten and his temperature rise.
“They’re so cool!”
“They must be rich!”
The shouted of the players around him made Hiro think of forcibly breaking through the line and stopping them to greet Liberty, who had been ignoring his friend request as if the week he went through with her and that intimate night meant nothing to her at all.
However, before Hiro could recklessly execute what went against his plans, a loud sound stopped him in his tracks.
Ding! Dong! Ding! Dong!
The church bell in Beginner Town tolled for the first time, its sound instantly attracting the players to look toward the church. Under everyone’s gaze, a ray of bright light flew out of the church bell and stopped mid-air above thousands of curious players.
However, the light didn’t change into a recognizable form.
“Attention! My name is Juno, the Goddess of Light. I am one of 10 Game Masters.”
A woman’s soft, yet charismatic voice resounded.
“Tonight, I will be the Game Master responsible for this first event. Before I open the special warp, I will explain the basic rules.”
Everyone paid attention without saying a word. Some of the players even seemed tense.
“This event is to welcome the release of the new ‘Pet’ feature accessible from base level 30. The list of rewards will be displayed in front of you.”
Beep!
Beep!
A semi-transparent panel appeared in front of the player that gathered at the town square.
Hiro read the list of rewards on the panel. The rewards were plentiful, but they were categorized into five different tiers.
The tier 1 reward. Given to the player with the highest game points, the prizes were the legendary pet ‘Baby Flying Black Dragon’ complete with 12 high-quality Philippine eagle hearts for pet food, which would normally be priced at 5,000 LSC each (Untradable).
The tier 2 reward. Given to the player with the second-highest game points, the prizes were a golden pet egg and five high-quality Philippine eagle hearts (Untradable).
The tier 3 reward. Given to the player with the third-highest game points, the prize was a golden pet egg (Untradable).
The tier 4 reward. Given to all the players in the winning team, the prize was a high-quality Philippine eagle heart (Untradable).
And last, the tier 5 reward. Given to all the participants of the event, the prizes were three mysterious boxes.
After reading the details of the rewards for this event, the players went into an uproar and began discussing. But suddenly…
BOOM!
The floating light exploded, silencing the players below.
Hiro was also startled by the clear explosion. The light had blown up into specks of light that filled the air and gradually came together and grow in size, almost filling the town square area.
After that, a spectacular transformation occurred.
The light formed a silhouette akin to an enormous dragon with a pair of wide wings. The dragon made of light then began to flap its wings, flying above the players that couldn’t stop themselves from voicing their awe of the dragon’s beauty.
The high and realistic graphics made them feel as if they were in a real dragon’s presence.
“It will not be this light, but this is the final evolution form of the Flying Black Dragon.”
