He was about to join the beta test on the newest VR games, Second World. But an anomaly threw him into a world with familiar rules, a rule he usually only experienced in a game. Now he must use his past gaming experience in this new world. It was no longer a game, it was survival! A strive to reach the highest level possible. Equipped with dual-class of melee and magic user, Jack was set on the path to become the strongest character in this brave new world.
The merchant, who was at the caravan's head, was Dylan. John had asked him to follow along after renting the caravans because they needed an authentic merchant for their disguise. Dylan had been grumbling non-stop after John explained what those caravans were going to be used for after seeing players entering them.
He was sure by the end of the days, these caravans would be full of scrapes if they were not fully broken. Any damages inflicted upon the caravans would incur a penalty when it was time for him to return it. John had assured him that the guild would help pay for the penalty.
He grumbled that it was not just about the monetary penalty, his reputation in the faction would suffer as well. John lectured him about the need for one to sacrifice for the good of many. Jack joined in and lectured him about the importance of their current mission. How they would need to win this war if players were still to have their freedom in this country.
