----------

As usual, Gloomy Village was surrounded by a thin black fog. However, the people were not gloomy at all. This was especially for the small market where a few stalls from travelling merchants were set up.

A brown haired young man with a depressed look browsed the contents of a tent that was set up. It was Kian who was celebrating his fourth day in playing Dimensional Heroes Online.

Since meditating all day was boring and he was still mentally exhausted from level grinding yesterday, he decided to go to the market and see if there was anything valuable being sold.

However, he soon found out that he barely had any Rune Stones that can be used to buy the things that he desired.

Currently, only five stalls were being operated and all of them were in the form of tents.

After a quick look around, he discoveted that they were a weapon's shop, clothing store, armory, food stall, and a pharmacy. Their shop owners didn't seem to be travelling merchants anymore since they almost never leave the village.

Kian left the armory with his back slouching. His eyes fell on the Weapon's Shop.

"If I still can't find anything to buy then I'd go back to hunting." he tightened his hands until they formed fists before he entered the shop.

"Well if it isn't Cayenne." a familiar deep voice greeted him.

"Sir Warden?" Kians eyebrows twitched.

On the counter, the burly warrior's training grounds instructor was dressed in the same thing as usual, no top and tight shorts. However, there was an apron tightened to his neck.

If a woman did a naked apron, Kian would definitely be pleasantly surprised. However, it's not the same if a burly man did it. He couldn't help but feel awkward and glance at the interior of the shop.

Although it was called a stall, it was arill pretty big that there was enough space to walk around and just like him, three new players were also browsing the place.

Kian looked around and only saw one weapon that suited him. It was a pistol but a bit smaller. However, its stats were clearly higher than what he had. The problem is that it costs almost all of his fortune which was just about 300 Rune Stones because of yesterday's hunting.

He couldn't help but sigh. Since he couldn't buy anything, he might as well ask Warden about the thing he was meaning to ask since his first day playing.

With slow and uneasiness steps, he approached the counter where Warden stood.

"Umm. Sir Warden, I just want to ask something" Kian started slowly in a low voice.

Warden grinned from ear to ear when he saw the meek Kian. He then pointed his index finger at the only pistol being sold at the shop.

Kian immediately caught what he meant and almost couldn't help but curse the big guy. This guy actually wanted him to buy first before he would answer his question.

However, this information was also very important to him. He couldn't get the answer from his fellow newbies since they were a bit stingy towards other people. He also haven't seen Fhy since yesterday.

Kian gritted his teeth and took the pistol before he placed it into the counter. There was also a bag of money that appeared magically into his hands. It contained 280 Rune Stones, a number that made Kian's heart almost bleed.

Warden was satisfied and with a nod, took the money before he placed it within a drawer. Finally, he smiled at Kian who also replaced the beginner pistol.

"So, whaddaya want?" he asked nonchalantly.

Kian regulates his breathing to avoid punching this man.

"I want to learn about the academies" he managed to say normally.

When asked with this question, Warden didn't hold anything back and began explaining. It seems that he doesn't have any intention in charging for more.

"There are a lot of organizations and acadenied out there. However, there are three acadenies that stand at the top for the Magi type. Entering them is not easy though. Not only do you have to pay 500 Rune Stones but you also have to be at level 10 or above to enter" he started.

Kian's eyes furrowed as he listened to Warden's explanations. The first requirement was already hard not to mention the second. Even he had barely reached level 5 from continous hunting yesterday.

Warden smiled when he saw Kian's reaction.

"Theyre the best however in training new Magi. If you want to reach the higher levels, it's definitely best if you enter them. They are the Chaotic Heart Academy, Cursed Doll Academy and Shade Academy" he said then took out a price of paper before he gave it to Kian.

"Though if you can't enter them, there are also a lot of places to enter in that list" Warden tried to comfort Kian

However, Kian wasn't discouraged but decided to ask more about these three academies.

"Chaotic Heart Academy teaches their students about applying dark magic to battles and the Cursed Doll are for the enchantment type magi. The last, Shade Academy is very mysterious. I don't know much about it except that it teaches more on the Dark Element than any other academy"

After Warden was done explaining things, Kian decided to head back to the Magi Training Grounds to think more about the academies while at the same time, test out the new pistol.

The effects may not be that great but to Kian who was still low-leveled, any kind of help made him happy. After all, the desire to enter one of the Top acadenies already formed in his heart.
