"Well color me amazed, your still as strong as used to be, heck maybe even stronger than you were." Oliver said while whistling at the damage that was created, and also at the dead body of the gaint blue wolf.
"Of course I got stronger, I mean do you think that the only thing I do these days? Just sit in here and read a book the whole time or something like that?" Solomon asked as he looked at Oliver as if he was thinking that exact thing.
"I mean... Kind of?" Oliver answered thinking that it was quite obvious that most people thought that about Solomon.
"Um.... Are we just going to ignore the fact that Solomon just blew up the head of a giant wolf thing as if it was nothing or something?" Azure asked as he was trying to figure out why they spoke like this much was nothing to be impressed by.
"Yes, yes we are" Oliver answered while looking at Azure while showing a confused look on his face.
"Does this not happen to you daily?" Solomon asked Azure in confusion.
"Not at all, far from it. So can someone explain to me how you just blew up the head of that giant wolf thing? Since I'm getting more and more confused right now." Azure answered in even more confusion than Oliver and Solomon together.
"I used magic to make the fenrirs head blow up since it was making too much noise and destroyed one of the walls. Simple is it not?" Solomon answered with a calm tone in his voice.
"Wait a minute, this thing is a what now?" Azure asked hoping that he misheard Solomon and that this big blue wasn't what he thought Solomon said.
"A fenrir, their kind of common in our forest, or at least our part of the forest. You didn't know?" Oliver answered Azures question. "Not at all" Azure answered in disbelief. "Oh, well then, now you do." Oliver said proudly.
'Ok, so apparently fighting fenrirs AKA OP boss monsters that easily beat the top guilds, are thought as either pets or pests here, this DEFINITELY makes a lot of sense." Azure thought to himself and was basically crying on the inside.
Solomon then raised one of his hands to where the place that once had a wall there, a bright blue light enveloped his hand. The broken chunks of the wall then started floating and went back into place to create a new wall, it looked like puzzle pieces being put together to finish the puzzle that they were trying to rebuild after someone ruined it.
When Solomon finished rebuilding the wall using magic, his hand stopped glowing and went back to normal. "Much better." Solomon said as he looked at the rebuilt wall that looked as if it was brand new.
"Anyways, we should go to the training grounds now so that we can find a weapon that fits you, I mean, that was the reason that we came here in the first place." Oliver said as he walked towards the door.
"Oh! I almost forgot about that... Please do have a good day sir." Azure said as he went towards Oliver.
"As it should, also please do know that you can come by to the library whenever you desire, I would like to know someone that has good manners unlike a certain someone here." Solomon said as he glared at Oliver, making it quite obvious that he was talking about him.
"Hey! My manners aren't that bad you know!" Oliver shouted at Solomon in an attempt to finish their with him winning for once.
"Then may I ask why you are shouting in a library?" Solomon asked, already knowing that Oliver won't find an answer for it.
"Because I- I.... Well whatever i'll come back later so that we can finish this argument!" Oliver said as he left the library with Azure following him.
Azure and Oliver then started heading towards the training grounds, while they were walking Azure asked questions about things that he was curious about and wanted to know about or just know more about them, since right now, he was a complete noob because this place AKA the forest made everything or most things that he knew about the game quite useless because of everything being a lot different than what he read. Oliver was just answering all of his questions which made Oliver think that Azure is kind of like a curious little kid or a little brother.
When they reached the training grounds, Azure instantly heard a lot of loud sounds like swords clashing against each other, arrows being shot, and people shouting at each other.
They then went inside one of the tents and saw a person sitting on a chair while sharpening his sword. The man had short black hair and a sharp red eye while his other eye had a scar on it that looked like it was from another sword, this made Azure think that he might have obtained it in a fight or something like that.
"Hey Ash, how are you today?" Oliver asked the man who's name was apparently Ash.
"I'm alright, i'll assume that it's the same for you seeing how energetic you are today, am I correct?" Ash asked Oliver with a small smile on his face, seeing his good friend happy made him quite happy as well.
"You know it! Anyways, I was hoping that my friend here can try out some weapons to see which one is the best suited for him, is that alright with you?" Oliver asked Ash while using his puppy eyes on him.
"Alright, but please don't use your puppy eyes against me again, you know already know that one of my biggest weakness's are cute things." Ash replied as he looked away so that he doesn't need to face Olivers puppy eyes.
"Thank you Ash." Oliver said with a happy tone in his voice since he knew that this was something that ash can't win against.
"Anyways, Ash meet Lime, Lime this is Ash, Ash is a soldier so he can help you get started." Oliver said happily because his friends could meet each other and hopefully become friends as well (Solomon is also Olivers friend).
"Nice to meet you Lime." Ash said as he stuck his hand out. "Same here, Ash" Replied Azure as he shook Ash's hand. "Well then, lets go and get you geared up and start testing weapons." Ash said as he started to walk towards another tent. This tent was filled with many armors, each armor had a unique design that made each one and every one of them have different stats and a different purpose for each one of them.
"Alright then put this one on and come outside so that we can start." Said Ash as he handed Azure a set of armor made for training.
Azure then equipped the armor and looked in the mirror to see how it looked on him. Azure then saw that his hair and eyes were pure white and the rest of his body was green, plus he didn't have a mouth on his face.
"What is this?!?" Azure shouted as he looked at his appearance. "Oh looks like you didn't know, you didn't awaken your race yet so it's going to be like that until you awaken it for the first time." Oliver said as he came closer to Azure to explain to him why he looks like that. "Race awakening? What's that?" Azure asked as he looked at Oliver in confusion.
"Race awakening is a phenomenon that happens when you reach certain levels, for example, when you reach level 25 then you can go through you first race awakening. Each time you awaken your race, you get a passive skill or maybe more than one and you it's the same with skills. The first passive skill that you one hundred percent get is spirit body. Spirit body let's you turn your body from the green sprite thing that you are right now to a human and back, and when your in the true spirit form, which is the on that your in right now, after you awaken your race you'll be able to walk through walls and fly around, plus you can only get hit by magic type attacks when using it." Oliver explained. Hearing this Azure immediately knew that he made the right choice by choosing this race.
"That sounds amazing! Are there any more things that I should know about these type of things or some thing else like that?" Azure asked in excitement as he thought about all the things that he could he do with all these abilities that he will unlock later on.
"When your using your spirit body in a fight or using it to walk through a wall or something like that, then you lose 5 MP per second." Oliver stated as he looked at Azure's face which was now filled with confusion.
"Wait, how much MP do I use per seconds again? Since I think that I might have misheard you just now." Azure asked. "You use up 5 MP per second if use it to walk through walls or when your fighting, but don't worry since it only uses up 1 MP per second when your flying."
These words immediately stunned Azure and made him feel as if someone shot him with an arrow right at his heart. 'Goodbye absolutely OP passive skill dreams.' Azure thought to himself, he then realized something which made him even more confused.
"Wait a minute.... how am I speaking if I don't have a mouth?" Azure asked as he looked at Oliver in pure confusion. "Oh that, well if you think about wanting to speak and then you just do, also when you don't think about speaking then you don't so just a small heads up there, and when you do want to then you just do but without your mouth, which you will have when you unlock your spirit body so don't worry about it." Oliver answered as if he already knew that this question was coming, which he did since it was quite obvious that someone would ask another how their talking if they don't even have a mouth.
"Oh ok, anything else that I might need to know about?" Azure asked, wanting to know more about things that might help him in the game.
"There are quite a few more things, but i'll save those things for when you strong enough" Oliver answered as he ruffled Azure's hair. "No fair!" Azure said as he started pouting.
"Alright then, i'll teach you some cool things later but first we need to get you a weapon and then you need to reach level 25. Only when you do that then i'll start teaching you." Oliver said in defeat.
'Haha! success! Now i'll have more information about things that might actually be useful in the future, unlike the starter guide on the forum." Azure thought to himself as a huge grin made it's way onto his face.
"Well then, let's go find a weapon that I want to use!" Azure said as he ran outside of the tent and onto the training ground, his eyes looked like tiny flames were in them, making it quite obvious that he's all fired up about finishing this, getting his weapon, and reaching level 25.
"Wait up Lime!" Oliver shouted as he chased Azure from behind.
"Alright Ash, what weapon do I try out first?" Asure said as he prepared to go and grab the weapons to try them out.
"Let's see.... Oh! How about you try great sword first?" Ash said as he thought about what weapons Azure might like using.
"Oh ok." Azure then took the great sword out of it's stand and started swinging it around to check if it's comfortable while doing something as simple as that, since if it isn't then it probably won't be a good weapon to fight with. Azure then noticed that it both very slow and very heavy so it isn't really a good weapon for him. "It's kind of slow and it's quite heavy so I think that something else would be better." Azure said as put the great sword back in it's place.
"So you looking for a weapon that's both light and fast....." Ash then started to think about weapons that might fit the description that Azure described.
"How about a bow then?" Ash suggested. "A bow might be a good choice but it's kind of slow since you need to put a in new arrow after every shot, plus the arrows would probably cost quite a bit as well." Azure replied while trying to think about other weapons that he might like using.
And just like that Azure spent a few in game hours trying to find a weapon that suits him well. "Alright then we narrowed it down to seven choices. One: Twin Daggers. Two: Dual Swords. Three: Arcane Pistol. Four: Arcane Sniper. Five: Baton Staff. Six: Sharp Edged Chain (it's a chain with with to sharp edges that kind of resembles kunais but are a lot thicker than them and is extremely good in ranged combat because of it's huge range and high damage, plus it can help you climb things when you need to.) And last but not least. Seven: Arcane Launcher (It's a weapon that you put on your arm as if it's apart of your armor or you just put it on your armor but still on your arm. It let's you shoot out spheres that you can control and move them however you want even if they aren't in the launcher making it amazing in both hunting and PVP.)
"Alright then, what weapon are you going to pick Lime?" Ash asked as he glanced at the weapons that Azure chose, they were all amazing weapons, but some people thought that they weren't just because they never saw someone use them.
"I... Actually have no idea what to pick. I mean, each one of them is extremely strong and have their own method of attacking that's best with them, so I don't really know what to choose out of them." Azure answered as he looked at the seven weapons in front of him and thought about their strengths and what he thought was the most useful out of the batch, but he still couldn't decide.
"Is that so? That just makes this more interesting." Said Ash. "Really? Why is that?" Azure questioned. "Most people would just take the weapon that they thought was the strongest out of the batch because of how the weapon looked. But, you actually took your time and tried out every weapon you can to see which one fits you the most and what can help you more in battle." Ash answered with satisfaction in his voice, seeing someone who truly knew how to pick out a weapon that matched them the most after testing every other weapon there was is quite rare to see these days.
"If you think that about me, then may I ask for something out of my own greed?" Azure asked as he looked into Ash's eye. "Tell me what it is you want first and only then i'll think about it." Ash answered while he started getting curious what Azure wanted from him. "Is it alright if I use one of the training grounds weapons? Since I want my weapon to not be limited to just one." Azure answered with a determined look on his face.
"What do you mean not wanting your weapon to be limited to just one? You can always pick another weapon later." Ash answered with confusion in his tone because of Azure's question. "That's exactly the problem. I don't want to be able to just use one at a time, I want to be able to use multiple weapons at the same time." Azure answered with a serious tone in his voice as he said those words. "But that isn't a possible thing to do, you can only use one weapon at a time and everyone already knows that." Ash answered while becoming more and more confused at Azure's words. "And that's exaclty why I want to make it possible, I want to make a weapon that is actually multiple weapons in one weapon, one that has no limitations on it, that's the weapon that I want to create with my own two hands." Azure answered with a big smile on his face.
It was at that day that Ash met the person that would create the best weapon that he would have ever used in his whole life time, and it was also that day that made Azure later become know as the best blacksmith in Dreamainia.... But who ever said that he was truly using blacksmith as his main class?
