"My Lord, Me, and my squad must go see Lord Arthur."
"Ahh, Then let us meet again sometime."
"Yes"
Gabriel stands there for a few seconds looking at Harris and his squad, leaving before he walked toward his room and has some rest after a long journey. Gabriel continues relaxing and not doing anything for the rest of the day then goes to sleep when the night has come.
~ The Next Day ~
The next day, Gabriel wakes up and have some breakfast before going to the Adventurer Guild. As he arrived, Gabriel then asked the receptionist about the mission he could take. The lady then takes him to the guild board where he could choose his own quest, not like Akrok city, where the Desk Lady will give him the quest that appropriates for him according to his exploit and experience that the guild card shows him/her.
Gabriel then takes a quest to kill an Orc, The minimum for the quest completed is 3, but he can also earn extra Two Silver Coin for every Orc he kills. The Orc Location is near the village, where he helps the villager solving the problem they have at times.
He then began his journey to the Belfair village. The village where the first plague he ever encounters in the new world. He arrives at the village when the sun high above his head, as he comes near the gate, some villager sees him and greet him as if he was their hero. Seeing their enthusiasm for greeting him or touch him, Gabriel blushes a little as he doesn't think that he deserves the praise.
Gabriel then walks to the Village house after explaining his reasoning to the villager who let him meet the village chief. After talking to the village chief, Gabriel then knows where he can kill the Orc. The Orc he will facing is around 7 in number and has a level around 40 to 54 if the scout the village chief sent is accurate. After getting the information, Gabriel then walked toward the Orc location. At first, the village chief wants to send some of the fighters to help him, but he able to convince the village to let Gabriel do it alone.

After walking for at least five minutes, Gabriel then sees the group of Orc who is eating some animal. Slowly he sneaks at the Orc before he takes Naegling before he jumps at the Orc and swings his weapon down, killing the Orc with one swing. Gabriel then runs toward the nearby Orc and touches it before making it turn into dust. He then sees the Orc mage that has a good amount of distance from him, who is currently preparing a spell to attack. Seeing it, Gabriel raised his hand and said.
"Holy Ray"
Coming from his hand is a Light Laser Beam that hit the Orc Mage and burning it alive before turning into dust. Gabriel then prepares to attack the other Orc Shielder, but before he was able to do that, another Orc Mage releases its Spell.
"H̸̨̙̤̞̥̜̣͎̐͐́͜ẽ̵̢͕̱̲̤͍̿̇̀͂͆̾l̴̛̳̽́̎̓͋̽͠l̸̖͌̈́̏̒̊͘ ̴̨̹̬̖̎̍̃̿̚͠F̴̡͉̞̑̿͗͐̈́́̇̿͠i̴̲̭͔̙̰̫̐͐̽͆̈́̅͝r̴̡͎̥͚̰̲̹͇̹̊̆ẹ̴̃͗́̕̕͠"
Coming from the Orc staff is a Snake made of fire that burns everything on its path as it coming toward him.
"Tch"
Gabriel then creates a massive wall made of stone to block the incoming attack while also dealing with the Orc in front of him by touching it and then turn the Orc into the dust. After the spell ended Gabriel, then destroy the wall before run toward the last Ord Mage, who is preparing another spell. The Orc tries to stop him, but Gabriel has more Agility than the two Orc Warrior. After arriving in front of the Orc Mage, he then uses his weapon to kill the Orc. Gabriel then uses his Holy Ray to kill the rest of the Orc who tries to running away from him.
After killing all the Orc, he then hears a *ping* sound inside his mind, so he checks his status where he gains one level after killing all the Orc and also one STR and one AGI from swinging Naegling and even running around with Naeglin on his hand.
Gabriel then walked to the village and greeted by the village chief, who is asking about the Orc. He smiled a little before shows his Adventurer Card where it says in the lastest quest that he kill all 7 Orcs. The Village Chief, who sees it, then sighs in relief before thanking him profusely to him before offering him a place to stay and celebrate it with the villager. Still, he rejects it saying that he needs to see the Royal Family tomorrow morning so he needs to go back.

In Pursuit of Glory
I felt a huge physical force slam into my back. I didn't have any time to think as I rocketed into the wall and felt the drywall dent beneath my body. Eyes wide, I groaned and began to push off the wall when, unceasingly relentless, my assailant backstabbed me with a knife to my gut. I gasped; being stabbed there is no laughing matter. Even today, with all the advances of science, a wound like that can easily be mortal. Most likely would be. I gasped for air with a snarl, funneling the wind into my lungs to help them expand after being pancaked into the wall. Nobody f***ing backstabs me and gets away with it. If there’s one thing you should know about me, it’s that I love being alive. I love it more than anything else. It’s something only a dead person can understand, and I feel myself forgetting all the time. But there’s a secret to death, and I keep it with me. Always. It’s never permanent, it’s never peaceful, and it’s always filled with regrets. But death, despite all of its shortfalls, can give a short respite from life, like a comfy afternoon nap. Death is Respite. It’s a rest for the weary. And to all those people who wander in death lonesome and regretting their broken lives - always, without fail, cut too short - I beg them to take advantage of it. I tell everyone to take advantage of death, even when I can’t bring myself to do so. --- Ciaran travels the world in pursuit of Glories, unfathomable, power-bestowing balls of golden light sequestered in difficult-to-reach places.

Millenia ago, humanity faced a catastrophe. Some devastating, catastrophic event that even to this day leaves its impact on humankind and the Earth. That’s not where our story takes place though, instead we look to space, where humans have taken up residence among the stars. Living in huge industrial space stations, life is a bore. Dull daily routines are broken only by extravagant fashion, music, and other means of self expression. Also, of course, the lifeblood of the stations- games. Four months ago, humanity was contacted by the first ever known alien life forms. These aliens, calling themselves the Erta offered their designs and schematics for their True Virtual Reality (TVR) console, as well as access to their game in exchange for peace. And humanity, excited at the opportunity to achieve one of their life long dreams (that is, to experience True VR), graciously took them up on their offer. Now, after scientists have finally confirmed the console to be safe for humans, the game is to finally be released to the public. This comes to the joy of most of the population, but a small portion of them can't help but be upset. As thousands of the researchers meant to be developing virtual reality, are fired overnight. Meet Brian Reed, one of these newly unemployed workers. Now, join Brian as he explores the very game that was the death of his job. And watch as he learns that the game is not quite what it seems.
