"Saras Gayen! Are you reading those dusty old books again?" Nina Gayen's shout preceded her entrance as she banged open the door to her son's room. As she expected, she found Saras sitting on his bean bag, holding a paperback copy of World History: The Ancient Civilizations. She snatched the book from his hands and tossed it into the pile of other books covering a range of topics from politics to economics related to Earth. "Look at Ellie's daughter, Stivi. She has already reached Level 3 in the Dreamverse VR within two hours of its launch. Why are you still lounging at home?" "I am not lounging! I am studying History…" Saras protested, looking at the book pile before turning his gaze towards his mother. She stood with her hands on her hips, glaring at him as if he had committed a grave sin by not entering the game as soon as it was launched. "You are turning 25 this year. If you don't play the Dreamverse VR now and join a good guild, how will you find a wife?" Thus started his journey as he once again navigated the VR scene through the mysterious game Dreamverse VR that was said to hold the keys to Human Evolution.
Alucinor City, Blacksmith Borhat's Smithy-
Samar had arrived at the smithy this morning and spent the entire morning enchanting 150 Lv30 Bronze-Copper grade pieces of Armors. He then enchanted two Sets of equipment with Second Order Enchantment for Blacksmith Borhat as the fees for his services and only had to pay 2250 Gold Leafs for the pieces of equipment.
Samar opened his purse to pay the Blacksmith but his jaws dropped open after seeing his balance!
'7228 Gold Leafs! Fuck! Are you kidding me?'
Samar swore in his heart, with disbelief on his face. He quickly turned on the notifications and he was flooded with a variety of them.
