Chapter 9: Laros 01: – New World

Will sighed, feeling uncomfortable after another tiring day at work- He had just taken a warm bath to relax his tired muscles, his blond hair was still wet when he turned to look at his phone- A new game was recently released and he was interested in playing! He bought it and already had it installed on his pod, he just ate something before lying on it- 

[Welcome-]

"Skip." He didn't want to have an introduction to all this, he'll make a character and think about what he wants to do before exploring this world's history and lore. He went ready into the character creation and began looking through the available races... They were all really interesting, but he chose the [Human] race because out the +5 to all stats, +10 to a stat he wanted, and an extra skill from a class that he wanted. "Now... Classes." He quickly read through a guide on the net and learned that you could get basic classes from the starting city of Avakty of the Human Empire of X'yalith, these starting classes could be upgraded into more advanced ones... Interesting. 

He pondered for a moment which classes he liked to play- Mages and Clerics, so he'll go with them. Magic is something fun that he likes to work with, so he'll do just that! Healing is also essential, he isn't that good with combat but he learned the art of the fighting cleric that can keep healing itself and fighting, which is crazily funny to play around with. As the light shone upon his eyes, he blinked and found himself in the only starting great city- Avakty. It was a large and beautiful city, full of life, laugh, and love in the air... His character name was a simple Laros, which is an anagram of his mother's mother name, Rosal, which he dearly loved. 'Hm...' he didn't change much of his appearence, so it was stil the same plain golden hair and blue eyes, he was still on his tall 6'3, broad shoulders and muscular frame.

He liked his body.

"Now... Where's the temple at..." From the community posts that the players spread, he learned that to become a Mage, you'd need first to go through apprenticeship with a Mage NPC and do some quests before unlocking the class, while the starting [Acolyte] class was easily gotten, just go to any temple and ask to join- Now, about the Gods, there were some. The big ones were:

Bryn, God of Sight and Righteousness.

Analphym, God of Potential and Uncertainty.

Evayne, Goddess of Relief and Reincarnation.

Cuvialtevve, Goddess of the Skies and Storms.

Ageaphyk, Goddess of Nature and Life.

Seanus, God of the Sea and Love.

Dwarn, Goddess of Creativity and Invention.

Everlight, God of Light and Time.

And Gran-Hörfax, God of Protection and Duty.

You could potentially become a priest for any of these Gods, but as an [Acolyte] you start with basic spells, two in fact, the [Minor Heal] and [Light Bolt], the first can heal a small amount of HP while the second one deals Radiant damage to an enemy while marking them with a light, once the enemy is hit again by an attack, that light explodes and deals an extra amount of damage! Laros smiled when he got the [Acolyte] class, to upgrafe this class to the classic [Priest] he had to heal a bunch of people and do church work, but as a priest he'd get access to the Church's library where he can learn more spells and skills that will help him! He quickly went to the starter leveling grounds of Avakty, where slimes could be found. He, thankfully, had gottem a [Identifying Glass] from the NPC at the church as his starting gear- in fact, he looked at his stats:
