[Quest Log:
1. Getting started!
-> Initiation: go talk to the village head.
2. Help the Smith
-> Initiation: ...…..]
I checked the quest log once more as I was headed towards the village head's house.
[Quest: Getting Started!
Description: Go Get the list of quests from the village head
Reward: Essence orb]
When I first checked this quest, I thought that it was simply a waste of time; didn't I already have the quest log for that?
However, as I inquired about it to the system, it turned out that it was the main point about gaining the quest log.
Apparently, other people who choose the first mode could do quests, but they would have to go searching for them while guessing how to initiate them, which would surely be a waste of time.
I, on the other hand could have two choices, either just pick quests I liked and initiate them easily with the help of the quest log, or just do the first quest and use the quest list as a recommendation, instead of going through the pain of initiating every quest individually.
The most important part of this quest was of course, the reward, an essence orb was one of the most important things I needed at this stage of the game.
In actuality, the exp in this game wasn't simple game like experience points. the so called 'exp' was simply the blood essence of living beings, so if you kill a monster or an enemy you receive part of their power leading to leveling up and getting a few stat points.
Normal natives of this world could only absorb a smaller portion of this 'exp' to strengthen their bodies in a certain direction according to the type of the beast/enemy and their bodily potential, while increasing their level accordingly. On the other hand, we players absorb almost double the amount of essence and can decide the direction we develop our bodies in, using stat points allocation.

If I return to the main point of this, the essence orb is precisely the way of storing essence. since low level monster essence stop benefiting hunters at some point, it was used as a more precious form of currency other than coins, so to simply describe it, the essence orb was like an essence wallet.
So, at this stage where I couldn't absorb essence to level up due to the level limiter of the hidden mode, storing the essence I could receive from quest completion and hunting would be the most suitable choice, and here is where the essence orb's importance lies.
This information about essence were as usual, from the tutorial knowledge transfer and the past body' memories, which both proved so useful as time passed.
I pushed these thoughts to the back of my mind as soon as I reached my destination, as I knocked on the door.
The door was opened after a few seconds, as a man who looked like a giant and had a huge blue beard came to my view.
"Yes, How can I help you? oh....."
"It is lil' Ian! long time no see, your face looks quite different than the last time I saw you, you have grown up quite splendidly!"
This was the Head of Thunder village, no one knew his actual name, but everybody called him Bluebeard, or just blue for short. He was a friendly middle aged man, who was loved by everybody in the village.
"Uncle blue, I was just here to ask for a small favor."
He was a close friend to my now missing father, so the other Ian used to call him uncle blue, and in return, Bluebeard was quite fond of him and doted on him a lot. That was of course, until he became a shut-in. Since then the busy village head rarely visited him. which was quite weird if you thought about it....

"Anything I can do for my dear nephew!"
"I was wondering If I could get a copy of the list of requests."
"Hmmm, sure…., but wait, why would you even need that for...."
"I plan on clearing quite a bit of them" I scratched my head as I replied.
"Oh, now that you mentioned it, you look like you trained quite a bit. you look much more different than your old sickly state."
"Still, do you really need to do them? Some of them are quite dangerous, you could always ask uncle if you are in need of money."
"I plan in leaving this village soon and roam the world, so I need to get some battle experience while also earning some travel fund!"
"Ah, Looks like you finally woke up to your potential, you are his son after all, errr. Fine, if you believe you are ready, then I won't stop you, wait a sec."
He searched for quite a bit and returned while holding a scroll, a red ball, and a sword.
"Here you go, you will surely need this orb later on, this sword is a gift from me!"
I received the stuff, and I stored the orb and scroll in my backpack, as I stared deeply at the sword.
