The Lion City of Sok Yamas.

Early morning.

The Explorer’s Home.

Even though it was only slightly bright now, many explorers were already dressed and walking on the stone path of the Explorer’s Home district.

Kane kept his Eagle’s Eyes on, checking on the explorers passing by.

Since yesterday, Kane had not discovered any golden magical reactions among these explorers.

These explorers who lived in the lodging area seemed to be newbies like Kane. After so long, he had only seen four silver magical reactions. Most of them were copper magical reactions. The only difference was that the magical balls were different in size.

He eventually arrived at the Explorer’s Home. The receptionist was a human girl he didn’t know.

Is it Adoma day off today?

With that in mind, he went to the second floor of the lobby.

This was the place to check the distribution of the surrounding dungeons and accept commissions. Of course, it also had the function of finding teammates.

On the front wall was a large dungeon distribution map. The levels of the dungeons were marked in gold, silver, and bronze.

There were some explorers scattered around and looking at the map, either silently or discussing.

Kane leaned over and studied the distribution map on the wall.

After taking a closer look, he roughly understood the situation here.

There were three bronze dungeons scattered around Sok Yamas. One of them was marked in green, one in silver, and the only golden one was still marked in red.

According to the description in the Explorers Class Guide, being marked red meant that it was a dungeon with high restrictions, high difficulty, and high mortality. It was not recommended to explore.

As for the bronze dungeon with the green mark, it was a dungeon suitable for the first exploration. A team of explorers with a certain level of strength could easily clear it.

After learning about the surrounding dungeons, Kane went to the place for accepting commission.

Three bulletin boards with commission slips were pinned to the wall. The board was also divided into three colors of gold, silver, and copper to distinguish the difficulty of the commission slips.

Instead of checking the copper color that suited his rank first, Kane went to the side to look at the gold commission to broaden his horizons.

Mission: Fairytale Castle Fun Cake*1

Mission Reward: 10,000 Gold, Gold Equipment x1

The Client: Her Royal Highness, Princess Sophia Soqamas

“Are you curious to know what the fun cake of this fairy-tale castle is?” said the subhuman next to Kane who was also looking at the golden commission.

Kane turned at the sound. The speaker was a tall tiger subhuman.

The Tigerman in the anime of his previous life was extremely similar. He wore heavy armor. The armor was scarred and gave the feeling that he had experienced hundreds of battles.

“I’m waiting here for my teammates. You look like a newcomer. That’s why I wanted to answer your questions and satisfy the curiosity of the younger generation,” he said, as if to dispel Kane’s wariness.

“Of course, if you’re willing to answer.” A helpful answer. Free information. Why should he refuse?

The Tigerman grinned and said, “Fairytale Castle’s fun cake is a golden consumable from the red-label golden dungeon ‘Fairytale Castle’ in the Kingdom of Isu. I don’t know the specifics of the dungeon, but I do know the exact utility of this cake.”

“What utility?” Kane said.

Satisfied with Kane’s response, the Tigerman licked the back of his paw and continued, “That means giving the person who eats it the ability to come back from the dead once. Isn’t that incredible?”

“Indeed.” Kane hadn’t expected the Golden Dungeon to produce props that could bring people back to life. Then would the items from the more advanced dungeons be much more outrageous?

However, Brother Tigerman didn’t seem to have finished speaking. He continued, “However, I heard that interesting cakes are relatively useless among resurrection props, and the drop rate is not high. I know of a very powerful resurrection item. Do you want to know?”

‘Of course I do.’ Kane was already sure that this was a keen senior. He might even be the type who enjoyed the admiration of newcomers.

“Haha, then I’ll tell you about this good thing.

It’s the Rebirth Cross. It’s a product of the dungeon that is the first priority to enter the Gold level. It’s not difficult, and everyone who clears the dungeon will definitely get one. However, I heard that this dungeon is about to disappear. At that time, the Rebirth Cross will be out of print.” The Tigerman was suddenly excited.

After the excitement, he suddenly said dejectedly, “I’m not far from Gold. I wonder if I’ll be able to reach it.”

Kane looked at him. Still a silver boss on the verge of gold? Pardon me.

“Since you know, hurry up and explore the dungeon.”

He looked in the direction of the voice and saw a palm-sized person with butterfly wings. She suddenly appeared in the Tigerman’s ear and roared at him.

Then she grabbed Tigerman by the ears and dragged him toward the stairs.

“In the time it took me to buy a potion, you could come here and brag to a newcomer about your news. It’s always the same news. Aren’t you tired of it?”

“Why was that golden commission still hanging there? When I was a newbie, I really wanted a senior to help me answer the information behind that commission. Now, I’m just fulfilling my unfinished dream.”

Kane watched the ‘body size difference’ pair leave the hall noisily. It probably wouldn’t be the first time judging from the reactions of the people around him.

Someone else looked at the couple and smiled strangely. What is this? Is it a trend to show your affection publicly in other worlds?

Retracting his strange thoughts, Kane began to honestly check the Bronze List commissions.

Most of the signs were filled with patrols, escorts, commissions to clean up the beasts. Some sought for magical materials that were produced in the dungeons, as well as those of other regions.

It seemed that the more interesting ones had all been taken early.

He understood the general commissions.

He went to the dungeon distribution map again and prepared to check which dungeon was more suitable for him to explore first.

He carefully reviewed the information on the three copper-colored dungeons. After repeated comparisons, Kane selected two for priority exploration.

The first was the dungeon marked in green. [Trade Road Ruins]

The second was the dungeon that represented the world’s copper-colored average dungeon. [Crystal Arena]

After exploring these two dungeons, Kane would have a clear idea of his strength.

It would also give him a location for the first dungeon, the Great Wood Forest.

Kane looked at the clock in the middle of the hall. It was nine o’clock.

Remembering that he had not taken breakfast yet, he went to the tavern on the first floor and ordered breakfast.

As soon as he finished eating, the sound of a radio came from the hall.

When he arrived in Sok Yamas, Kane realized that the outside world was indeed a little more developed than the border town.

Thanks to the information and technology produced in the dungeons, this world had developed magical power technology, making some city facilities inexplicably sci-fi.

The broadcast was the main thing about Kane getting up early today and coming to the Explorer House.

“This month’s Door of Mist will open today. At 10 a.m., we will officially organize the newcomers to receive their blessings.

The Door of Mist will be open until 10 a.m. tomorrow. Please arrange your time reasonably. Finally, may the mist bless you.”

With half an hour to go, Kane followed the radio’s directions and eagerly went to the front desk. Get my queue number, 124.

Fortunately, he heard that more than 1,000 people had come to the Explorer’s Home to receive their blessings today. His position was considered very front, so he was not late.

The mist door to the Explorer House was in the basement of the hall, waiting for Kane to descend.

The tables and chairs around the waiting area were full, so he had to stand to the side and wait.
