During Jeff's slow climb up the stairs, some adventurers hopped by. They raised a brow at Jeff. But then they chuckled and put on a nostalgic smile. Some even gave Jeff encouraging nods.
'More friendly than expected huh...' Jeff smiled and nodded back at those guys.
In Jeff's mind, he could already see a bright future ahead of himself.
'Join a small guild. Make some friends. Enjoy adventuring together. Maybe even revealing my true capabilities and saving their asses, surprising everyone.'
'Earn some good money. Enjoy celebrations at bars and taverns. Find a beautiful girlfriend.'
'Buy good equipment. Buy high level spells. Buy high class potions at auctions and use them as my hidden trump cards.'
'This will be great.' Feeling the warm sunshine on his back, Jeff squinted in comfort.
As Jeff approached the top, he could already see some adventurers waiting by the front entrance.
