Adventurer's Hall of [ROA]

Alex paid 5 Gold coins to the shop owner for the sword and left the shop. Leaving the blacksmith's shop, Alex took a moment to soak in the bustling atmosphere of Village Tervana.

Now his next destination was information hall of [ROA] where he could buy a map and know more about this virtual world.

Roaming through the lively streets of Village Tervana, Alex's gaze wandered from shop to shop, taking in the diverse sights and sounds. He could hear snippets of conversations from passing adventurers who are [ROA] players like him, tales of epic quests and hidden treasures. The village seemed alive with the spirit of adventure.

Following the directions given by the blacksmith, Alex navigated his way through the winding streets until he spotted a humble building adorned with a sign that read "Information Hall - Your Gateway to Knowledge." Excitement welled up within him as he pushed open the wooden door and stepped inside.

The interior of the Information Hall buzzed with activity.[ROA] Players, clad in various armors and garbs, gathered around notice boards, exchanging tips and rumors. Alex approached the reception desk where a young woman named Rein stood, her warm smile welcoming him.

"Welcome to the Information Hall," Rein greeted him cheerfully. "How can I assist you today?"

"I'm looking to purchase a world map and a map of this village," Alex replied, his voice brimming with anticipation. "I want to explore and learn more about this vast realm."

Rein nodded, reaching behind the counter to retrieve a parchment map intricately illustrated with landmarks, quest locations, and regions. "Here you go. This map will be your guide, highlighting the key points of interest and providing a general overview of the world and here is the detailed map of Tervana."

Alex paid the requested amount of gold coins, his hand trembling slightly with excitement as he held the map in his grasp. The realization that he was about to embark on a grand adventure set his heart racing.

"Thank you," he said gratefully, his eyes gleaming with determination. "I can't wait to uncover the secrets and challenges this world holds."

Rein smiled, her eyes sparkling with understanding. "Remember, knowledge is power in the realms. If you ever need more information, feel free to return here. We're always here to assist aspiring adventurers like yourself, and we also buy information if you have anything new. And also, remember to visit the church when you reach level 10 for class selection. I hope you will get a good class."

"Thank you once again for your kind advice. I will surely come here again," Alex said gratefully, bidding her farewell.

Alex's POV:

After exiting the Hall of Information, I opened the village map and began navigating my way toward the Adventurer's Hall to register myself as an adventurer. The surroundings were filled with players engaging in conversations with NPCs, triggering quests, and uncovering hidden stories. While these interactions were common in RPG games, the randomness and realism of the conversations made it feel like players were talking to real people rather than in-game NPCs. I marveled at the level of detail and immersion, feeling the warmth of the virtual sun. These intricate details made me feel truly alive.

Lost in my thoughts, I arrived in front of a magnificent building adorned with a captivating banner that read 'Adventurer's Hall'. Stepping through the main gate, I noticed some players engaged in a heated argument with a professionally dressed lady behind the reception desk, presumably the receptionist. I decided to ignore the commotion and approached another counter, trying to distance myself from the confrontation.

However, even without intending to eavesdrop, I couldn't help but overhear their conversation due to the close proximity. Voices grew louder as an adventurer voiced his frustration, demanding a refund for a map that he claimed was overpriced compared to the Information Hall.

"Sir, please understand, the map you are referring to has less detailed information," the receptionist tried to explain, her voice calm but strained.

"Shut up and give me my money back, you whore!" the adventurer erupted, his anger escalating to the point of insults. Before his hand could strike the receptionist, it froze in mid-air.

"What are you doing, young man?" a dignified voice resonated throughout the hall, capturing everyone's attention, including my own. I turned my gaze to the source, a middle-aged man with a white beard and mustache, standing behind the would-be assailant.

"Sir, I was just..." the adventurer's bravado withered in the presence of the man's authority.

"Leave before I blacklist you," the old man sternly commanded.

"We are sorry, sir, for causing this trouble. We will take our leave now. Thank you for your service," a woman wearing a cape and hood, hiding her face, apologized.

"lets leave Kain I don't want be blacklisted here because of your stupidity on my first day"She dragged the disgruntled adventurer away, urging him to avoid being banned on their first day.

Even after they left, the hall remained in silence, frozen by the recent events. I found myself rooted to the spot, just like the others. Chuckling softly, the old man spoke, breaking the tension. "Well, I apologize for having all of you witness this unpleasant incident. As an apology, I declare that everyone here will be registered free of cost, and you shall each receive two health potions for free. Lara, please ensure that our customers are satisfied."

"Yes, sir, Hall Master, as you wish," Lara, the receptionist, responded, acknowledging her given name.

"Well, thanks to the rude player, I got a free meal," I thought to myself with a chuckle. "Wait a minute, what was that adventurer's name? It sounds familiar."

"Hey, you, move forward," someone prompted, snapping me out of my thoughts.

"Ah, yes, yes, I am moving," I responded, refocusing my attention. "Well, whether I heard the name or not, it doesn't matter now. Let's focus on the task at hand."

I moved forward to wards the receptionist's desk. The lady on the desk said with a greeting I said" Hello Sir, how may I help you".

"Greetings miss I am new here so, I wanted to register my self here "I said this with a smile on my face.

The other person's response something " Wow!! are you for real!!".

''what!!??"
