"......Ok now that we know our names I will start explaining a few things to you, and after that I will answer all the questions you might have”-the old man smirked with a glint in his eyes.

“Ok…”-Paul answered noticing the glint in the old man’s golden eyes.

“First I will start with a few things about this world and please wait for me to finish before asking questions.

1.This world is called Edenawe and there are many places left undiscovered. It is not known how big it is, but so far there are 10 kingdoms and they all have about the same territory. You don’t need to know about them just yet. Just know that the kingdom you are right now it’s called Calvarno.

2.Every kingdom has 1 or 2 major cities and a few villages depending on the territory. We are now close to a village called Farhav. Our location is about a day from the village, and this house is deep in the forest around the village.

3.Every town has a special type of dungeon under it. The dungeon is connected to the ruler of that respective town.

The town can get a new ruler in only 2 ways. Either the current leader gives you the town, or you kill the ruler and then you must go into the dungeon ALONE and conquer it, by reaching the throne which you must touch with the bracelet. More about the bracelet later.

4.There are many types of races in this world. In the present there are elves, dwarfs, humans and advents. Out of these the elves, dwarfs and humans have a peace treaty so they may live in the same city but they still don’t fully trust another. Then there are the advents…hmmmm. They are the wild cards. They are feared by some and loved by others. They are the fewest among all races.

I am a human, and you are and advent.”

“But I am...”

“I said wait till I finish and then you can ask questions”-said Jonathan with a serious tone

“5.There are a large number of different monsters in the unexplored areas and where isn’t such a large population. Some have special abilities, some are harmless, and some are very dangerous.

6.Every kingdom a guild, all different and still the same. The guild’s recruit adventurers and they give them quests. Many of this quests are to kill some type of monster.

7.Everyone has a bracelet like this, that bonds to them and then connects everyone in this world to this world. You get one at your 16th birthday from the guild or a mage.

8.In this world there are 2 main types of adventurers. They are either those that focus on enhancing their physical prowess, warriors. Or there are those that study magic and use it, they are called magi.

I am a magi, specifically a grandmaster magi.

9.Every bracelet has it’s owners stats, skills, and guild level. Your guild level gives you acces to the same quest level. The levels are H, G, F , E, D, C, B, A, AA, S and the highest is SS. The higher the quest level the higher the reward and fame.

To level up you use guild points that you gather by completing quests or killing monsters. You can also convert guild points into money.

10.And finally there is you, or more exactly your kind. In this world you are called advents. You kind first appeared in this world 20 years ago, and since then once every 5 years, in the summer, one of you appears in mostly every town. Your kind is easy to find since you have special skills and some crazy high stats. Because of this every king sent small armies to every village, town where one of you might appear and recruit them by force. So because of this most of you kind is either a great hero or a criminal.”

After the old man finished talking, he looked at Paul to see his reaction.

“Did you understand everything I said?”

“Well, I believe so.”

“So, do you have any questions?”

“Hahahahahaha not for now, hahahahaha”-Paul started laughing with tears in his eyes

The old man looked surprised at the young man laughing in front of him.

“I cant belive it…hahaha. This is my chance to have my own adventure!”-Paul couldn’t believe his luck.He could finally have his own adventure like in all the stories he enjoyed so much before.

The old man left the room letting him laugh and shortly returned with a set of clothes. He handed the clothes to Paul and told him to get changed and that he will be waiting outside.

Paul looked at the clothes, and his smiling stopped. The clothes were plain like the ones villagers used to wear in games. But when he looked at the clothes better he saw that they are kind of small.

>

He took the clothes and got dressed. He noticed that the clothes were perfect for him. He thought he saw wrong and went outside to the old man.

Just before saying something to the old man he saw himself in the mirror.

“Whaaaaaaaaaaaaat?! What is going on?!” –he saw that he looked younger, his hear was jet black, and his eye color was purple.

The old man panicked.”What? What is going on? Are you injured?”

“No…it’s just that my appearance changed”

“Hmmm? What do you mean”

“I looked older. My eyes were green and my hair was brown.”

“Oh that…one of you kind a few years ago told me that when coming to this world his appearance changed too. So that must be true for all advents”

“Really? Well it’s not that I hate it…it just surprised me.”

The old man suddenly ran into another room and came out with something in his hand and gave it to Paul.

“I almost forgot to give you a bracelet. To bond it to you must put it on your hand then put a drop of blood on the bracelet and it will change shape to suit your personality and abilities better.”

Paul put the bracelet on his right hand and put a drop of blood on it. The bracelet started to glow purple and started to change it’s shape. It went up almost until to his elbow and started to shine harder. It started as smooth as his skin but lines started appearing on the bracelet. It looked like elvish writing.It’s color became like black metal with rust on it, and the writing was silver.

It looked like an ancient artifact. After the transformation stopped, a bit of steam came out of it and then stopped.

Jonathan watched the whole thing with his mouth open. He never saw a bracelet transform this much in all his long life. Then he saw Paul staring at him.

“Oh, my apologies young man. It’s just I never saw a bracelet do that much of a transformation.”

Paul felt very happy hearing this. He thought that must mean he is very powerful.

“Well anyway, to see what are your stats simply say STATUS, and only you will see this window. To see what skills you have say SKILLS. Also you can only show you stats to anyone you want just say SHOW STATUS TO whoever you want. Do you understand? Good.”

Paul was excited to find out what he could do.

“Show STATUS to Jonathan”

“Huh?”-Jonathan was surprised to see that only luck had a high stat. Everything else was average.

Paul was wondering if he was strong or not until Jonathan showed him his stats…

“Why am I so weak if I’m an advent?” Paul asked with a sad face

“Well, if my theory is correct it’ probably because you arrived in this world sooner than you should have. Normally your kind starts appearing only starting from next week. The only reason you arrived here is because 5 years ago I was saved by one of your kind and he told me to help the one who will arrive in Farhav. I did so by setting a magical trap 2 months ago to prepare for your arrival .This magical trap automatically transports you here if you were to arrive anywhere near or in the village. To protect you from the kingdom by telling you all that I can before….Before I’m gone from this world”

“Huh? What do you mean”

“You see soon will be my time to return to the earth and make room for the young. I only have about 3 days left in this world. I would have left notes and a diary if you arrived here and I was gone”

Paul was surprised to learn this peace of news and asked to see if he could help but it seems that in this world some people that have lived long know for some time if they were to die.

“Don’t be sad my young friend. I have lived a happy, full of adventure and long life. But for the next 3 days I will teach you and help you as much as I can so that you will have an easier life”

“But first I have some items for you. They are one of a kind since I made them hohohoho and they will help you on your journey in this world. Follow me”

The old man lead him to a door that took the both to a basement. And there when the old man said something small orbs of light started to appear. Paul was amazed to see a library full of hundred of thousand of books and a table on the left with 3 chests near it.

He reached into one of the chests and gave Paul a small ring made of wood. It had a crack in it.

“Here This ring is one of my greatest creations. This ring is a magical storage device. It allows it’s owner to put anything in it as long as you can touch it with the ring. This item also required a drop of your blood to bond to you.”

Paul quickly put on the ring and then dropped a drop a blood on the ring. The ring shined then it became the perfect size and it didn’t even feel like it was on his finger

“To take out an item just think of it and the ring will do the rest. There are many items like this one but they have a limited storage. This item opens up a pocked dimension so it’s limitless”

Paul was really thankful and looked at Jonathan with more respect now.

Then Jonathan reached again in the chest and pulled out a paper and a small bag.

“This bag contains 50 pills that if you take them, you will no longer need to eat, sleep and rest for a week. The downside is that after a week you need to sleep 24 hours or you might die.”

Paul again was surprised at what the old man has given him. But then he saw the paper and read it.It was the recipe for the magic pill.

Paul tried the ring out and absorbed the pill and the paper.

The next time the old man reached into the chest he brought out 3 old looking leather covered books.

“Take these books and touch them with the hand your bracelet is on and say LEARN”

Paul put his right hand on the first book and then he said “Learn”

The bracelet showed him then a window just like his stat window.

Skill learned-IdentifyYou have learned identify thanks to a magic book. Because the writer of the book had such an extensive knowledge about identifing items, your identify skill starts at Beginner lvl.6

Paul then remembered that this is just like in the games he loved to play. He then realized he forgot about checking his skills.

>

Paul repeated the process on the rest of the books.

Skill learned-Mana sightYou have learned mana sight thanks to a magic book. Because the writer of the book had such an extensive knowledge about magic , your mana sight skill will start at Beginner lvl.5

Skill learned- Monster TamerYou have learned monster tamer thanks to a magic book. Because the writer of the book had such an extensive knowledge about monsters and their beahviour, your monster tamer skill starts at Beginner lvl.7

Jonathan was happy to see Paul so happy with his gifts. Then he took out of the 3rd chest a wooden box and a crystall the size of a fist. Paul looked at these 2 items and asked.

„What are these?”

Jonathan smiled and said „You will know when the time is right.Don’t try to find out since it’s impossible. After you have a few adventures you will find out. Hohohohoho”

Then Jonathan looked towards the books and pointed towards them and said something. All of a sudden all the books started floating out and they stopped in front of Paul.

„Go on then....Absorb them into the ring fast. I can’t keep them up for long”

Paul hold out the ring and absorbed the books 10 or so at a time. After 3 hours he finished absorbing the last book.

Then Jonathan reached into the last chest and gave him a big book and a map

„This one is my journal with all my adventures and some knowledge. This is a magical map that shows you your location on it and it also shows you every place you went to.Right now it’s rather empty, only this location and the way to the village is on it.But the more you travel the better it becomes. Use it wisely.”

„Thank you Master. I will definetly make you proud.”-said Paul with a grin.

„Oh shut it!!!Call me Jonathan. I am your friend not your master”-Johnathan said turning around so that Paul can’t see his face becoming red

„Now let’s go sleep. It’s already late and we need to sleep. Tommorow it’s a big day”

They both went to sleep. Or they tried to sleep. Jonathan was to exited that he finally met Paul, the advent he waited for almost 5 years and couldn't wait for the next day.

Paul on the other hand still wasn't sure this was real or a dream...he didn't care anymore. He was to mentally drained to think and tried to get some sleep.
