Versatile: Alternate World

[Quest Completed!]

This tutorial quest is greedy, I have indeed earned a few beginner items I needed to get a good chance to survive in the deserts and neutral zones of Sandurk but I lost a good amount of gold for items that only cost a few coppers and silvers. Even if I am already rich, that doesn't mean I have to use all of my money, I can easily blow it up if I spend it. It's much easier to spend money than to earn them.

I checked Tezach's wares for today but he only sells crap so I didn't bother to purchase anything as they are expensive as hell despite being common things found and dropped by monsters. They might look rare at first but once you have farmed at least a few times, you will realize that they are just common stuff you can earn if you kill monsters.

After a few whiles, I was disappointed and decided to leave for now. He doesn't have the necessary things I wanted to get and I doubt I can get access to his secret stash yet with how I am still an acquaintance to him.

After completing the first chain, I continue to finish the chains of tutorial quests. Except for Tezach's quest, the others are tutorial quests on what to do in certain situations in Sandurk and even though I know them by heart, I still followed it.

It took me at least 30 minutes before I finish the chain quests, rewarding me 5 mysterious scrolls as a final reward.

[Mysterious Scroll]

Type: Normal Item

Usage: Instant

Info: A mysterious scroll that when used, will allow you to choose a scroll of your choice.

Note: According to the legends, one man has mixed his porn illustration in one of his scrolls being sold in the market. In an attempt to hide it, he cast magic that causes every single scroll to become mysterious and will only appear in its true form once used by the caster. If you are into treasure hunting, this is a good treasure for you, a man of culture.

Although I find it ridiculous on the note of the Mysterious Scroll, it was a true story, and, if you stumble upon the scroll containing his "work", a secret and one-time quest will appear.

I have some doubts to earn that quest before because it sounded ridiculous but as in the past timeline, it did occur. I still remember that time when the person who found it streamed the encounter live. The player has a scribe ex job with him and likes to create scrolls and sell them so he is very likely to find the secret compared to other players.

He gained an exclusive Ex-job that time that involves mastery and additional benefits in creating scrolls making him one of the best distributors of scrolls at that time. He wasn't famous because he is strong in the game but due to his ability to create a variety of scrolls depending on what the job needed.

Although that secret quest and job are interesting, I am not that interested in taking it away from him.

Once the last tutorial quest has been done, and orange quest log appeared in front of my screen.

Pioneer's Responsibility

[A Pioneer's Task I]

Type: Pioneer Questline

Objective:

Get an audience with the Queen of Sandurk.

Info: As the very first Pioneer to arrive in this land, your task is to get an audience to the Queen of Sandurk and get the information regarding the new lands you have stepped in.

Note: The Queen is sexy, and a waifu material. The society of men approves.

Oh, the queen of Sandurk. Damn, to think meeting her is the first task. This is going to be a little troublesome right now. Once I close the panel of the new quest, I received an item from the chain quests.

[Medal of Pioneer]

Type: Quest Item

Info: A badge given to a pioneer as a method of identification. With this item, you can use this to get an access to some limited areas guarded by NPCs to proceed to a Pioneer Quest. Will not work if there is no pioneer quest accepted.

Bound to: Bladeheart

Ah! Sweet! Just as what I needed! With this, I can easily access the palace without triggering the quest needed to enter the palace. If the quest for entering the palace is triggered, I won't be able to finish this questline as a pioneer as that quest needed you to get an access to the next continent and that won't be applied in this game until 5 months has passed by.

Anyways, I went ahead and went to the castle gates of Sandurk, and as expected as a normal guy, the guards immediately stopped me from moving by blocking their spears on my way.

"HALT! Beyond this point is the property of the royal family! Anyone who steps inside without permission will be sent to prison immediately!" one of the two guards said.

"I like to get an appointment to the queen. Here is a medal of identification. I was told we would just need to show this if to the guards to get an audience to the queen," I said and showed them the medal.

"Can you hand it over? We would like to confirm if it is a legitimate [Medal of Pioneer]."

I handed it to the guard and he started inspecting the medal from the front and back before he returned the medal back to me.

"We apologize for stopping you, Pioneer. We just wanted to ensure the safety of the royal family. I will write a small message for you to get a private meeting with the queen."

The first guard went ahead inside the castle while I was led by the second guard on their little rest house for me to wait for the first guard's news. He didn't take too long before he returned carrying a seal of the royalty that will allow me to access the Royal Chambers.

"A maid is waiting for you once you enter the castle. Follow her to meet the queen."

I thanked the guard and went ahead inside. Just like what the guard told me, a maid is indeed waiting for my arrival and the moment I stepped inside the castle, the maid bows down and greets me.

"The queen is waiting on the guest room, please follow me."

A/N: I apologize to everyone who are waiting for the next update of the . I know I am already way behind of what I should have updated already but I am so busy with some IRL stuff especially in my new job. My only time I can update is only during very late at night around 12 midnight to 3 in the morning without sleep and I barely can stay awake for that, postponing my updates most of the time. I will try to upload a few more chapters if I can today but I can't promise it. Still, thank you for patiently waiting.
