Grave look at the 5 dead bodies around him. It took 1 min for the dead bodies of monsters to disintegrate into pixels. During this time, players can choose to manually process the bodies or let the system give them rewards. Manual processing is more profitable but more time-consuming.
Grave had no intention of wasting time. He waited 1 min without doing anything and the bodies disintegrate.

'Hmm, at least better than trash trainee sword.' The loot was decent, especially the 20 Bronze coins...
In 'Liberty Online' currency was.
100 bronze coins -> 1 silver coin.
100 silver coins -> 1 gold coin.
1000 gold coins -> 1 platinum coin.
For a normal starting player, 20 Bronze coins as their first loot was a very good amount.
Grave remembers that his monthly making in the MOONSHINE guild was 20 gold coins. He was above a hundred level at that time.
"Haaaah, Dungeon master was sure a money-eating class."
Collecting loot, Grave moved deeper into the forest to hunt.
....
As Grave moved deeper into the forest, he found many groups of people who were killing wolves.
This made a hard situation for Grave. He traveled while avoiding these groups. All these groups were part of some guilds. He did not want to get himself involved with any guild for now.
Just like that, he kept searching. Not much success was achieved.
For new players who were unaffiliated with any guild, finding monsters to hunt was far more difficult than killing them.
Finally, after 2 hrs of searching, he found another group of wolves pack. This time he found an average level 7 horde of 11 wolves.
They were near resting near large stones. Grave saw that there was an alpha wolf present in this pack.
This time, Grave picked a small stone and throw it at the head of the sleeping alpha.

owwwwwwww
Alpha wolf screams in pain, alerting the whole pack.
Without giving them time, Grave rushed to the nearest wolf.
Seeing Grave coming forward, 1 wolf jumped at him while 2 rushed toward him while others rushed toward the Alpha.
Grave looked at the wolf jumping on him and performed STAB. His sword went from one side of the wolf's skull to another side.
[Ding!. Calculating... Exp]
The whole dead body of the wolf fell down. Dragging his sword out of the corpse Grave side role to dodge the attack of other wolves.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtGrave started fighting the other 2 wolves near him.
[-36, -33,-25, -40.....]
Grave started moving around with his agility and start attacking at weak points of the wolves.
Within one minute, Grave killed one more wolf. While fighting the next wolf, he looked toward the alpha, who was almost recovered.
"I can let you control the crowd. "
Screaming that Grave jumped on the head of the wolf he was fighting.
While in the air, Grave took out his trainee sword and THROW it at alpha's head.
Alpha was almost recovered. As Alpha open eyes, a sword came directly in front of his eyes.
Baaam.

[Ding!. Calculating... Exp]
Trainee's sword was precisely deep in the middle of Alpha's forehead.
Grave looked down, falling he performed a slash at the wolf whom he used as a jumping pad.
Wolf's head got separated from the body.
[Ding!. Calculating... Exp]
4 down 7 left.
Seeing the death of Alpha wolves entered the enraged mode. In a frenzy, all of them rush at Grave.
"Well, this is bad."
Saying that, Grave runs back toward the dense forest. He did not want to fight 7 wolves with only level 3.
In 'Liberty Online', players only got exp when they were in non-fighting mode. So no hope of mysterious power-ups.
Just like that, a dangerous war between crazy wolves and Grave started.
[ -20, -30, -25, -31,-37,-40...]
[ Hp 100/120]-> [Hp 90/120].....
After 20 mins of fighting, Grave finished the last wolf.
Only 1/3 of his health was left. 11 bodies of wolves were splattered in the forest.

Grave just lay beside the dead bodies. He needs to restore his health. In 'Liberty Online', there was a natural health restoration for players that depends on the Stamina of the player. Currently, his health restoration is 1.4 hp/ min.
1 Stm -> 0.2 hp/min.
In the last fight, his trainee sword broke down and even his Iron sword was in terrible condition.
After waiting for 1 min, all the dead bodies near him disappear.

After checking his stat, Grave looked at the timer and nodded his head.
"Hmm, I am done with my level up for now. Let's start the mega-event, hahaha. Before that, let's wait for my health to be completely filed. With my new 2.4 hp/min health regen, I only need to wait for 34 mins. Let's buy the other necessary thing for now."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSaying that, Grave casually walked back to the village. There were many new players still connecting to Liberty online on a daily basis. Currently, only 40% of the world's population was part of this game. In the future, this number would cross more than 95%.
Without caring about all this, Grave went to the market. There were many players as well as NPC shops present there.
Grave needed to hide what he was buying, so he chooses NPC shops. For the next 10 mins, he went from one shop to another shop to get the discounted price.
In Liberty Online, Npc were act like humans. Like human shops, they also gave discounts and provided many other benefits. Because of all of this, even after the guild started their own shop, NPC shops did not get shut down, but it became more like a war between players' shops and NPC shops.
After 20 mins Grave spent 5 gold coins on buying stuff. That was a huge sum to spend for a newbie.
From 5 gold coins, he bought 200 lowest health potions. 1 silver each. He actually almost cleans up the whole supply of the lowest health potion from all NPC shops.
Next, he bought 20 Lowest Agility potions, 2 silvers each. 20 Lowest strength potions. 2 silver each. After these came the turn of weapons. He bought a whole 500 trash trainee sword. After getting a huge discount, he bought it for 2 gold and 20 silver coins for the whole. Lastly, he bought 10 best iron swords with 1 gold whole.
"Hahaha, I emptied the whole trash sword from the market."
