Aaron watched the letter carefully, a faint smile etched on his lips. He felt happy to be able to provide a sense of security for the locals and realized that this was what made him proud to be a soldier. However, the happiness was short-lived as he knew that his job wasn't done yet.Aaron and his troops were back on the move and on guard, staying ready to counter any threats. They patrolled around the region and monitored the movements of any bandit groups that might appear. Aaron also came up with a new strategy and enlisted the help of some additional troops to ensure the safety of the region.Over the next few weeks, Aaron and his troops continued to work hard, tending to the territory and protecting the locals. They managed to fend off several attacks from bandit groups and chased down those who tried to escape. However, despite their best efforts, the bandits kept coming back with new strength and bigger attacks.Aaron was frustrated and exhausted, but he didn't give up. He talk
Aaron looked at Mordecai boldly, "I've come to challenge you," he said firmly.Mordecai laughed, "You think you can beat me?" he asked sarcastically."I never underestimate your strength, but I must try," Aaron replied firmly.They began to fight and Aaron showed great combat ability. However, Mordecai was too strong and managed to defeat Aaron easily."Not bad, but you're not ready for me," Mordecai said as he stood over Aaron's limp body.Aaron didn't just give up, he tried to get up and attack Mordecai again. However, Mordecai suddenly turned into a grain of light and disappeared.Dariowyn, the knight who was Aaron's servant, came to him and gave advice. "I saw your fight with Mordecai. You have amazing abilities, but your level is still not high enough to deal with him. I suggest that you raise your level to at least 700."Aaron nodded in agreement, and vowed to increase his level as quickly as possible. He returned to the village where he grew up and began to accumulate experienc
Aaron went to a cave to rest after a long day of hunting. This was his only chance to get out of the game so as not to get a scolding from Leen, but Aaron held back when he heard something from the deepest part of the cave."Hehehe."It was the sound of laughter.Aaron took out the Nightfeather Sword and took a stance, then sharply hissed, "Who's there?""Hehe... Aaron, am I not the person you've been looking for all this time?"Aaron threw his spit on the ground as soon as he recognized the voice. "Mordecai... I've been confident in my current strength.""Oh, of course. Facing you, I am but an ant standing on the feet of a giant elephant." Mordecai let out a compliment that was much more akin to sarcasm. "So, why didn't you come here and fight me? Weren't you already confident of your victory?"Laughing softly, Aaron took something out from inside his spatial ring.[Item's name: Lighting BallType: CommonIt can light up for thirty minutes once activated.]From behind the darkness, M
It was nighttime, inside a small house in a crowded, run-down neighborhood.Aaron placed his bag on the floor after pressing the light switch. His eyes were filled with tears as he looked around. He had left this room for over ten years, so was now in a completely unkempt state!Aaron let out a long breath. He could only swallow his misery.The most famous player in the entire world, adored by millions, now languishing in his shabby little room in deplorable conditions. No one would have ever guessed it!Ten years ago, Aaron was a swordsman cultivation legend in a MMORPG game called ‘Martial Earth Online’. They dubbed him as Unmatched Sword Master for his unbelievable swordplay skills. Aaron never suffered a single defeat!“What should I do now?” The light of his life had vanished to the end, and he was desperate.Aaron took a deep breath. He glanced at the apple-cutting knife lying on the floor of his room. The knife had rusted, but it’s still sharp enough to slice through human skin.
Aaron checked the Virtual Reality helmet that Leen had given him. The shape is not much different from the one he had when he was still playing 'Martial Earth Online'.In the past, Aaron bought it for 1,000 Credits. It used up all his savings meant for his later marriage. He thought his money savings would be better used to support his progress since he never found a mate.Now, when Aaron doesn't have over 50 Credits, he gets the helmet for free. Plus the money in the big envelope. Out of curiosity, Aaron rushed to open it.A moment later, his eyes widened in surprise. "This is all… 1,000 Credits!"That's 1,000 Credits, and Leen said earlier as if that wasn't enough money to eat for a week. What kind of joke is this?With 1,000 Credits, Aaron can get delicious food for three whole years!Letting out a deep breath, Aaron just shook his head before putting back all the money. A card flew down when the envelope was lifted. On reflex, Aaron scowled at him before hitting the floor."This i
When Aaron opened his eyes, he realized that he was in a dim all-white room.Suddenly a woman's voice was very authoritative."Hello, Player! Welcome to 'Martial Universe Online', I'm your AI guide, Natasha. I will answer all your questions in the game if you needed. But before we go any further, you must choose the type of race you want.""Human race," Aaron answered matter-of-factly."Race selection complete! I will tell you the three main job categories from which you can choose. Carefully to choosing it, because you will not be able to change jobs in the future.A panel appeared before Aaron listing ten jobs in three main categories.[Soldiers: Guardsmen, Knights, Rangers of the Forest.][Martial Experts: Sword Cultivator, Assassin, Wanderer.][Magic Experts: Elemental Fighter, Summoning Fighter, Talisman Fighter.]Each job category has its advantages and disadvantages in the 'Martial Universe Online' world.When he succeeded in becoming The Unmatched Swords Master in the game Mar
The scenery in the market then changed to a view of caves filled with many baby orcs!"But recently, the orcs have regrouped to attack humans. They also cooperated with the goblin race. Right now, attack after attack from goblins as well as orcs swept through the villages and even small towns of humans."Not only that, they have no qualms about attacking the major cities of elves and dwarves! In the end, the three races, namely humans, elves, and dwarves, had no other choice but to cooperate and join forces against the attacks of the orcs and goblins!"The scene again turned into a battlefield. Fire everywhere. Arrow rain. Body pieces. Scream in pain. The humans, elves, and dwarves seemed to raise their weapons to fight together!"Anyone can be a great hero to many folks, his name will be remembered forever. Player, do you want to be one of them?"The sentence ended a series of introductions to 'Martial Universe Online', the next second Aaron was able to open his eyelids and see a med
"If you accept, it means you agree to all the risks of this assignment. Your death is beyond our responsibility. Understood?" The beauty said again, now more serious.Once again Aaron nodded and replied, "I understand.""Please accept this plaque." Out of thin air, the beauty took out a small plaque, Aaron took it without hesitation.[YOU RECEIVED THE FIRST MISSION![The level is open!][STATUSLevel: 1Physical strength: 30Soul power: 31Endurance: 100HP: 1000Mana: 0Armor resistance: 100]Aaron smiled with satisfaction. This is just like in the game of 'Martial Earth Online', where a new level started after the player accepted the first mission. If the player wasn't serious, he wouldn't have a level, and his status would be the same as an NPC.The young man didn't wait any longer. He exited the Diamond Sword Pavilion and ran towards the nearby forest of this city. Aaron had already memorized the streets of Gray Stone City in his head, so he was able to reach the forest in a brief
