《The World Of Divinity》Returning Back To Town!
Advertisement
Storing away the newly gained items, Alex proceeded to leave the hunting grounds. He was excited at the thought of raising some early game funds from selling the collected furs and hides.
In his past life, Alex was slow to rise to fame due to real life circumstances. Although he played a lot he wasn't like those rich young masters that had bucket loads of money to convert into in-game funds.
This time around, Alex had one goal and one goal only. Make enough money to fix his family's circumstances as quickly as possible.
To do this Alex had already decided what he'd do. "If I'm right there should already be plenty of lower grade items on the world auction site. With the crazy amount of people trying to profit from the game, some lower grade recipe materials will surely go unnoticed."
"Just thinking about the amount of money I'm about to rake in is making my blood boil haha."
Back at Red Leaf Town the streets were packed with adventurers. Some of which were still logging into the game for the first time.
The way the developers set the game was to have every day cycle in The World Of Divinity set to 48 hours. 36 of those hours, being day time and the remaining 12 be night time. However, day in the game correlated to night time in the game.
This caused a lot of workers to play more since it didn't cross with there everyday lifestyle and instead of sleeping and not doing anything they could enjoy themselves in the game.
Later down the line because of this function alone The World Of Divinity would soon be called the 'second world.' Of course this doesn't happen till the first major update.
Alex walked past the entertainment section in the town until he came to a shop called 'Trixie's Tailoring Store'. "Afternoon, is anyone there." Alex called out in a gentle voice.

"Ay, well if it isn't an adventurer. Haven't seen you around here before. You new?" Trixie said while she continued to stitch up a purse decorated with fine silk.
"Yeah, just wandering through but I heard you buy hide's and furs here for a reasonable price."
"Oh? What materials are you carrying, get them out and I'll see what there worth." Trixie said clearly more interested in the turn in the conversation as she was now giving Alex her undivided attention.
Alex smiled while pulling out a stack of Wolf pelt, Bear hide and the 3 lots of Black Panther King hide.
Trixie was immediately shocked at the amount but also the quality of the goods in front of her smiled "This, you managed to get your hands on hide from the Black Panther King. Just who are you?"
Alex laughed but didn't answer her question.
"Ay your remaining mysterious are you? Well not that I care as long as your selling your goods." Trixie said while looked through the pile.
"Well then, for the wolf pelts the base price is 4 silver each. As for the bear hide considering the quality, 12 silver each. As for the Black Panther King considering the rarity and the fact it's used in high end goods 50 silver each. What do you think? Deal?"
"Seems reasonable to me, Deal!" Alex agreed since he already new the price he'd get.
"Great, If you have anymore in the future just bring them along. Especially the ones like Black Panther Hide." Trixie said while smiling gently.
[Your Favourability has increased with Trixie +10]
[Your friendship with Trixie is now 'Friendly']
Taking the pouch of coins that he just gained, Alex took them and strolled towards the auction house on the other side of town. Right now, Alex could be consider one of the richest solo players since the cash conversion system wouldn't be available until LvL 10, once players entered the cities.

"Now then let's go and make a scene in the auction house shall we."
Entering the 3 storey grand building which was by far one of the grandest buildings within the town. Alex was met with a wave of sounds. Everyone was excited to spend their money but to also make money so conversations tended to get pretty heated here.
The ground floor was for public use and it was the only floor available right now to the players as they didn't have the privileges no the status to go to higher floors. Yet this didn't matter too much. Alined with the walls were devices to list and scan through the market. There was a lot of freedom as the items would be sent to the system when listed on the market and then sent to the buyers inventory directly, once verified payment was confirmed.
This allowed for 100% safety in trades and purchases as long as players didn't buy things for the wrong prices, it was hard to get scammed.
Alex walk to the market system and browsed through the skill book section to see if there was anything to take note of. However, what he immediately saw were 2 books of common grade with the name [Backslash] going for a buyout of 20 silvers each.
Alex immediately bought this skill as he couldn't contain his excitement almost wanting to burst into laughter inside the shop.
[Backslash] was a common grade skill yes, but in the future it was a skill that was heavily favoured to assassins as it was used in almost every fight they encountered.
As a result in the future this skill rocketed to prices of 10 gold+. That said it wouldn't be for a while as nobody had that sort of money so Alex refrained from buying the other book just yet.
Next he went on to list up the excess materials like the wolf teeth and so on from his hunt which could fetch him a couple of silver as they normally sold for copper.
Then Alex listed his Nights Watch Bow for at starting price of 40 silver on bid and set the timer to 2 hours and sat back and watched as the auction house was about to erupt into mayhem.

After three centuries, post-industrial civilization threatens to shatter. Megacorporations accrue enormous power by linking together nations turned insular in the aftermath of yesterday's global multilateralism; a reinvigorated United Nations threatens the crumbling sovereignty of state by enforcing human rights independently of member nations, and the UN and others patrol for mass destruction technologies in the ever-accelerating, ever-democratizing arms race. Another environmental collapse looms, visions of the last haunting memories and consciences of the lower and middle classes around the globe. That is the reality that virtual child Colton is rehabilitated into. A system shock, a brave new world and above all a regurgitation. Rescued from being a tool in cyberspace and grown a new body, Colton couldn't care less about the new meatspace world. He wants to go back, back to the electronic glow that was his home. - - - - This is a MyNoWriMo entry. Lesser known than NaNoWriMo, MyNoWriMo takes place in January and is otherwise exactly the same. The goal is to finish this as quickly as possible and then possibly circle back and tidy things up. In the meantime there'll be no editing and helter-skelter story planning since I didn't do it beforehand :/

Zone has no owner, it has its rules It shows no mercy, to both wise and fools. It has no God, it gives no hope It gives to kind, last rites and rope. It’s a Hell on Earth where demons thrive But people kill, to get inside. People kill, to leave this place People die, for a chance to stay. For those, outside, they dream of horrors We live inside, horrific borders. We live, we thrive, just like those demons. Here, our lives, they have a meaning. Zone has no God, it has no Devil But it has us and its enough We are in Hell or maybe Heaven Gates are here, in front of us. The Zone has many rules and none of them would make much sense to you, living on the Outside. For example here, you would never hear, “I’m sorry for your loss”. Only silence would be the answer. The most empathetic action you would receive, is an open flask and a nod. People here don’t expect to live long and happy lives and even the most optimistic person at most, would hope to die inside of a blender. It's the most painless and quickest way to die in The Zone, and the cleanest. Your body would be torn apart in a second by countless gravitational pulls, all centered on you, leaving nothing but a red circle outside of its perimeter.

Dear, my little sweet princess of the west, how have you been spring child? As usual Here in the east we are celebrating the winter festival, it's rowdy, cheerful, and loud... very, very loud, from the smiling children with their candies in their hands and mouth, to the adults dancing gleefully with their partners. I wish you were still here to be my door answerer, hahaha.... well, duty still comes first for us Magus! So I hope you have a nice and fun winter festival there in Castle Krone with your family. But... you know me when I write letters, so if this letter has finally fallen to your hands child, that means I have died from the hands of the Rider Cultist. I know for sure you will weep for me, mourn for me, but don’t take too long child, because the time has come to summon the last heroes, act now! quickly and swiftly, because the clock has ticked again with my death.

Sincerely, your great of a Magus of the East uncle, Jan.“ Lord Protector is fantasy series following a teenage trio named Martyn Wulf, Arthur Svard, Eleanna Florens and their teacher Marie Maynard, who were summoned to a world called Lumenter by the Kingdom of Albion. They are tasked to protect Lumenter from an old chaotic force, that previously has tried and failed to destroy Lumenter. But this trio and their teacher took a different approach on their task, where rather than making the cliche heroes party to venture out to this new brave world, they instead, or more specifically, Martyn Wulf, the brain of the trio, made a deal with the King of Albion. The deal was that Martyn, his friends, and his teacher would be protected by the Kingdom, and then making Martyn the co-ruler of Albion. In exchange he will improve and advance Albion politically, economically, diplomatically, and maybe even technologically. The King and his advisors accepted Martyn's offers but by doing this, he just plunge himself as well as his friends and teacher to a world of corruption, lies, betrayal, and greed. Either way, he must play this messed up game of chest for his survival, his friends' survival, and his teacher's survival. For more information, go to the main website! Cover by - Moccha
