Valeria City

"No wonder we can only buy a few skills from the system; it looks like we have to clear the dungeons to get the skill crystal or learn it in another way," Li Wei remarked.

When he thought of the fact that they could only buy five basic skills for each class, he was a little puzzled at first, but now it became clear.

"Then, brother, doesn't it mean that all people have different skills?" Li Xin asked.

"Maybe, we just got one skill crystal. We can't figure out everything from it. Let's go. We should search for a city nearby. Even though it's a low-level area, we can't always stay in the forest," Li Wei responded, heading out with Li Xin.

"What about the dungeon? Will it stay like this?" Li Xin inquired, looking at the cave.

"Who knows, it might spawn monsters again, or maybe it will disappear. It's a pity that we're not strong enough to dig and search for something like dungeon core," Li Wei muttered with a disappointed face.

"Anyway, let's follow the path before. It must be heading towards a nearby city or town," he stated, following the path with Li Xin.

*Rustle! Rustle! Rustle!*

But not even a minute passed before the sounds of someone running toward them reached their ears.

"Brother, someone is coming," Li Xin exclaimed in a low voice, becoming alert as she observed the direction of the sounds.

"Hold me tight and hide in stealth. We'll see what it is. If it's dangerous, we'll escape directly," Li Wei instructed, taking her in his arms and entering stealth.

*Rustle! Rustle! Rustle!*

As they both hid in stealth, the sounds of rustling leaves and someone running got closer and closer.

"Ah, damned rabbit," suddenly a cute, angered voice sounded, revealing the culprit of the rustling leaves they heard.

Li Xin and Li Wei were both stunned.

They saw a cute little girl around 12 years old running from the rabbits. She looked like she was from a Western country.

"Ughh, scram, you silly rabbit!" The girl kept running away from it, but the rabbit still chased her with no intentions of letting her go.

"Grrr, just you wait for me to recover my mana, and I will show you what kind of person I am," the girl threatened the rabbit with a glare. Alas, it didn't work on it.

She wanted to threaten it more, but suddenly she heard rustling ahead and saw two more rabbits that were watching her.

"How could it be? Why are there more?" The girl's face turned a little pale at the sight of them.

Even though they looked like cute little rabbits, they were small monsters.

"Brother, what should we do? Help her?" Li Xin asked, watching the girl in danger.

If it were someone else, she might not have bothered, but it was a small kid in front of them, and she couldn't bear to leave her alone.

But she still asked for consent because the girl's attire indicated that she was from another world, as she was wearing a fantasy-like attire straight out of the game.

"Of course, we're going to help her," Li Wei replied without hesitation.

He was not some kind of ruthless person to leave a little kid to die. But he still used the Analyze Eye to scan the girl and the monsters.

"Let's go, she doesn't have much mana left," Li Wei decided after examining her status.

He exited the stealth mode and directly attacked the rabbit behind the girl with a sword.

*Swish!*

A sound of cutting flesh was heard as the sword ruthlessly sliced through the rabbit's body.

*Whin!*

The rabbit growled in pain before dying.

"What?" The girl looked stunned when she saw Li Wei and Li Xin appearing and killing the rabbits.

Ignoring the girl, Li Wei and Li Xin both killed the other two rabbit monsters with their attacks.

*Swish!* *Swish!*

They both attacked with their swords, directly slicing the rabbit monsters in half.

*Sequel!* *Whin!*

Both rabbits screamed miserably with pain as blood gushed out, killing them together.

[Ding, Congratulations for killing a Level 4 Rabbit. You gained 175 XP]

[Ding, ...]

Li Wei and Li Xin both received system notification. Because they were still in a party, they both shared the experience points.

However Li Wei didn't care about it and arrived beside Li Xin who was feeling a discomfort after seeing the red blood.

"It's okay; you don't have to worry," he smiled, patting her head to soothe.

Meanwhile Emily looked at them with curiosity because their attire was different.

"Are you from another world?" She asked, wanting to know about them and their relationship with each other.

Her eyes sparkled at the thought of their relationships.

Hearing her question, Li Wei became stunned at her fearless, curious look. He couldn't help but feel funny seeing her sparkling eyes.

'We are probably able to talk and understand because of the Language Mastery skill, but it's hard to believe that we met a human from another world like this,' he thought, when he understood what she was talking about.

"Yes, we are from another world." he answered her.

Hearing his reply, Emily's eyes sparkled more brightly.

"I am Emily, thanks for saving me," she introduced, thanking them.

"It's only a small matter. I am Li Wei, and she is Li Xin," Li Wei introduced both and turned towards her.

"Why are you alone in this forest?" he asked, feeling puzzled.

No matter what, it was really hard to imagine a twelve-year-old girl running inside the forest by herself. Not to mention, she didn't look afraid even after her life was in danger just now.

"Huh?" Emily tilted her head cutely at his question.

"It's a forest for a newbie like me to level up," she replied with a puzzled face when she saw they didn't know this.

"Aren't there in your worlds too?" she asked, thinking it should be the same for all the worlds.

"No, there aren't any," Li Wei replied, shaking his head.

"Well, can you tell me if there is a city nearby?" he inquired, seeking the information he wanted.

It was the most important thing as he couldn't spend the night in the unknown forest.

"Hmm, there is Valeria City just a few kilometres ahead," Emily answered, pointing towards the direction she came from.

"Oh, then can we enter the city?" Li Wei asked if they can't enter the city then it will be useless to head there, he would better search for other cities.

"Anyone can enter the city as long as they pass the test prepared by the guards," Emily replied.

"Huh, what kind of test does one have to pass?" Li Wei questioned, a little puzzled.

"Hmm, it's hard to explain, but it's a 'good person' test left by an almighty figure. If anyone is a bad person, it will show immediately and confine them until the country sends their guards," Emily explained with a confused expression.

She too wondered just how the test worked, but no one explained to a kid like her.

"Why don't you come with me? I am also from there, and it will be easier if you follow me," she added, looking at them.

Li Wei nodded with an understanding expression after hearing her explanation.

"So there is a test like that, and of course, we will go with you. But aren't you afraid that we are bad people?" He asked, looking at the fearless girl who didn't seem to care too much.

"Are you the bad one?" Emily asked back, observing him and not showing any fear.

"No, we are not. Anyway, let's go. We will follow you to the city," Li Wei replied, shaking his head. He didn't want to waste more time.

It was already noon, and both he and Li Xin were hungry, and with the city around, it would be better to eat something freshly cooked.

Emily nodded and glanced at Li Xin, who was silent all the time.

"Why didn't this sister talk?" she inquired with a curious expression.

She also wanted to ask what their relationship is, but she refrained as they were not familiar yet, but her curiosity still remained.

"Oh, she's a little shy," Li Wei replied with a wry smile.

Unlike him, she was a full-time introvert, so it was understandable that she didn't know how to start the conversation with others.

Hearing him, Emily didn't say anything and proceeded towards the city with both of them following behind.

As they walked for a while, they arrived outside the forest and saw a city surrounded by 10-meter-tall walls.

"Look, that's Valeria City," Emily pointed towards it.

"Come follow me. I will introduce you inside," she added with a smile, as if it were a fun thing to do.

Li Wei nodded, following her with Li Xin.

As they got closer to the city gate, a guard noticed them. He became vigilant seeing the new faces and otherworldly attire.

But he relaxed a little when he saw the person leading them.

"Emily, you've brought two new faces," he said with a smile after seeing it was her.

"Uncle, they are from other worlds. They also saved me when I was ambushed by Rabbit monsters. That's why I brought them," Emily explained to the guard what happened.

"Other world?, Anyway, there are no rules to stop them. They can enter the city as long as they pass the test," the guard uncle replied to Emily with a smile.

He wasn't worried when he heard she was ambushed by the rabbits because she held a protective amulet that could save her life in danger.

She can't use the amulet because of her low level, but it didn't mean the amulet can't start itself and protect her.

He then turned towards Li Wei and Li Xin observing them.

"You both, follow me to the test room. It's only a small test; you don't have to worry about anything," the guard explained, inviting them to follow him.

"Okay," Li Wei agreed and followed him.

He wanted to find a safe place where he would be able to level up without much trouble, so he was happy when he heard that there was a good person test.

He felt relieved when he thought about this test; it would be difficult for someone like criminals to enter the city, and he wouldn't have to worry too much about people coming after him.

Inside the test room, a standing platform stood there with a big football-sized transparent orb placed on it.

"A magical world with magical tools," Li Wei murmured in his mind, watching the orb before them. He felt like it's a dream.

"Here, put your hands on this orb and pour your mana into it," the guard instructed, pointing at the transparent orb.

Li Wei nodded recovering from the thoughts and followed the instructions, pouring his mana into the orb.

When everyone received the system, they also got basic knowledge in how to use mana, so it wasn't a problem for him.

As the mana entered the orb, it started to shine with a holy white light.

"You passed the test. Now, miss, it's your turn," the guard informed after seeing the light and instructed Li Xin.

She, too, followed the instructions and passed the test without any problems.

"Now you both have passed the test. You should register yourself with the Adventurers Guild to get your IDs, and you have to pay a 1000-coin tax monthly per person," the guard informed.

In this world, the system coins were used as currency.

"Where should we pay?" Li Wei asked. This was the first time he was going to use the trading function of the system.

"Just put your hands on it and enter the amount you have to pay," the guard pointed at a small blue panel beside the orb.

"If you get a guild card in the future, you will also be able to use it for completing transactions," he explained.

Li Wei nodded and followed his instructions, and a small payment screen appeared in front of him, almost the same as the online payment from Earth.

"It's done." He directly paid for both of them.

"Okay, here take these tokens," the guard handed them two wooden tokens.

"Remember not to lose these. They will verify your identity until you register with the guild. Also, don't create trouble in the city, or you will get thrown into jail," the guard warned them before letting them inside the city.

"Hey, are you done?" Emily, who was waiting for them outside, asked.

"Yeah, we are done. Can you help us to find a good place to stay and eat?" Li Wei requested. This was the first thing he wanted to do.

But he wasn't familiar with the city and could only ask for her help.
