First beta tester

Derek was at a loss for words. He did not understand how this thing even happened. How can a two-floor building materialize out of thin air. He did not understand. He was even more sure of his decision to follow this mysterious boss Max. He knew that he really had a chance to progress in some new path with this person around. Max walked toward the club and said to Derek behind him: "Let's go. It will be your new home for then next month or so."

After Max said that he entered the building. He then said to the system in his head: 'System Derek can see only one skill now: Swordsmanship. Also, this skill will not get into his mind in a passive way like I learned it, but it will be taught to him by a bot looking just like him making every one of those moves until he can replicate them in the right way. Give him a chance to fight this bot if he wishes. It will show him what he is capable of if he will learn those fighting skills in the right way. Make the same thing for the rest of the people that will come to my club if they are fighters that took the warrior path. They need to win this level one bot before they can study anything else. I'm not a charity organization. Also, I will pay one gold coin for the food and water supply for this month. So just take it from my money.'

'Alright. Pay attention to the fact that the burger and the stake cost 5 bronze coins the drinks all cost 3 bronze coins, the beer cost 5 and the water is for free.' The system answered in his head.

Derek entered the club after Max and was very surprised. He lived in the capital, but he never seen anything like this. This was like something from another world.

They entered the room with the capsules present. Max asked Derek: "Are you hungry?"

Derek nodded in response. Max made an internal sigh. He will need to pay for this kid for around a month. That will be sad. He did not think Derek was worth this investment, but it was better than walking in circles by himself.

"Alright. Come to this counter. Ill treat you to some good food. You will have 2 meals per day. Today I give you a beer on the house but later you will have to pay for drinks from your own pocket. Only water is unlimited. Remember that." Max said.

Derek nodded. He was inspecting the room. There were 10 weird circular blue things located in the hall. The floor and the images on the walls gave Derek a shock. It was not something possible to make from his knowledge. Even with all his shock he did not say anything. He didn't want to make the owner angry or displeased.

The duo went to the counter on the right side of the capsules. Derek was sited on a chair and Max went to the other side of the counter and got out a burger with cheeps and a beer. He did not need to do anything. All the ingredients were located in the cells designated for them. As for the drinks. They were poured from a circular pipe you could see in every cafe bar.

Max did not want to waste even more money on himself. He will get the supply of food with vitamins and minerals when he will enter the simulation in his capsule, and it will be for free. He did not have too much money to waste now. When he have more money later, he will treat himself for different meals every day.

"Here is your meal. Enjoy. Here is salt and paper for you" Max said to Derek and sat in a way that his presence will allow Derek to enjoy his food.

Derek looked at the food and was stunned. He never seen anything like that before. The bread was soft, and the meat had a really good smell. There were some kinds of lines that he could not understand what they represented. He was sure that it was some kind of food. When Derek started to eat the food and drink the beer he was flabbergasted. This was so good. He never tasted anything like that. He was sure that only the high nobility could eat something like that. The strange lines were some kinds of potato type, and the taste was just right. The beer was also something totally new, but he liked it. He would spit blood if he knew that all people from Max former world could eat this kind of food for a low price. After he finished eating the food, he was full. The meal was big, and it was enough for an adult man. After Derek finished the meal, he asked: "Can I really eat this twice a day?"

Max laughed and said: "Of course you can. But remember the drinks cost 3 bronze coins and the beer cost 5. You will need to pay for them. If you can't just take water. Do you understand?"

Derek nodded and said: "How can I increase my strength?"

This was the main reason he came with Max. He wanted to become stronger.

"Alright. Come with me. You need say "open" to enter this capsule, say the word "dark" and close the door behind you, get all of your clothes off, sit on the seat and then say "start". After you do it, you will enter another world for training. I will enter it with you from another capsule. Don't panic when you get there. Just wait for me. Don't worry about the entrance of the building. It is locked and there is no one that can enter here." Max said to Derek and departed to his room to enter the same simulation Derek will enter to instruct him how to work in the new environment he will get into.

After Max left Derek felt a lot less pressure. He was not sure if this owner was into boys but from the looks of it for now, Max wasn't one of those guys. He followed all the instructions and entered the simulation.
