《The Dream Of Magic.》Chapter 6: Skills, and The first City.

I’m still walking on the dirt road, It’s been about an hour since I woke, nothing interesting has happened since I found the coins sack.
The weather today isn’t too hot, nor too cold, It’s probably Spring in this area of the world, if the seasons here are the same as Earth’s seasons’
‘Haah... I’m really thirsty, I need to find some water soon, but strangely enough, I still haven’t felt hungry since I came to This world, What’s up with that, anyway? Is it something that all inhabitants of this world have or something else entirely?’
You don’t require food because of your: Basic Survival Skill.
‘Oh? This is interesting, So I also have Skills? How do I see what skills do I have?’
To Open your Skill list, Say or think the words “Skills Menu” intending to open the menu.
‘Ah! I see, that makes sense, but wait, I can simply think about it? Skill Menu’
Skill List Basic Survival Club Mastery Running Climbing Falling To expand the page of any Skill, say or think the name of the Skill intending to open the full explanation.
‘Hmm... Wait! Falling!? Seriously?...’
My anger boils again when I remember the fall, but I suppress it down, I will take my revenge one day, no need to feel angry about it now.
and right then I notice the second, smaller screen.
‘Hmm... Oh, This sure is useful, lemme try it, Basic Survival’

‘I guess 5 more days should be enough for me to reach a city. Hopefully. Also, I really need some water.’
It’s a few hours later, and, well, nothing.
the meadow stretches on and on, seemingly without end.
The sun is at its zenith now, and walking for the past few hours is starting to take its toll on my body, My feet are sour, my butt feels kinda better but the pain from it is not helping at all, and worst of all, I'm thirsty.
I suddenly get distracted from my butt pain andd thirst by a blue box, and while reading its content, my tired face is instantly replaced by an excited one.
You are 5km away from the city: Nari.
Note: This message is intended to help you know a few basic things regarding the first city you visit.
The city of Nari is a Dungeon city, and is the second biggest city in the country Skaysil, The first being the Capital, Skais.
A lot of young adventurers from different parts around Nari visit the city dreaming of getting stronger and striking it rich.
You can use the following story as a back story for yourself.
You were kicked out of your family for certain reason and left Gabia (Nearest Settlement of Forest Elves to Nari) and came here to delve the dungeon, become stronger and get rich.
You may also however say that you are from a different world and tell your real story, or you could just say nothing, the choice is up to you and how you want to live your life.
Good Luck - Admin#4
“Yessss! Finally!”
‘This info is gonna be very useful, I don’t wanna look like a complete moron with zero knowledge about the place I’m in’
‘but my backstory, huh? In my past life I was a college drop-out, and worked part-time job after part-time job, my only relaxations were sleeping, and reading web novels. What do I wanna be in this world? Do I aim big? Or keep a low profile, get a somewhat good paying job, and live a normal life?... hmmm’
‘Well, after I tasted the kind of power I can get from a single level up, I don’t think I can settle down with a normal live’
‘And there are also dungeons, with monsters and treasures, so I’m pretty tempted to go the “Aiming Big” route... hmm’
‘Okay! I’ve decided.’
“I shall become the greatest adventurer in Darla! or something like that. But for now, I think I will stop and take a rest here, I still have 5 km to walk... My poor legs”

Twenty years after the start of the new millenium, the world was largely at peace. Crime was at an all-time low in most nations. No large scale conflicts between countries currently existed, and the people of Earth had even begun to see hope for the future. In the year 2020, all of that changed. The first occurrences of the interdimensional reality altering zones occurred. Named 'Dungeons' these supernatural and alien existences unleashed monsters and mayhem upon the world. Only after considerable loss of life and adaptation to the new world order did people begin to rally back. The discovery of a strange artificact item in one of the dungeons allowed humanity to develop powers far beyond their wildest imagination. This device worked on principles considered to be impossible. It was not the only one. Items of super-science and magic were discovered inside the dungeons of the world that could not possibly work according to the known laws of physics. Yet, they did. A special school was built to train young people so that they could specialize in dungeon exploration, in the defeat of monsters and the acquisition of the Impossible Devices.
