Chapter 15: Talking with the observer

"Don't worry, I will ask you for daily help. This is a small thing compared to my help and promise to you."

They laughed together and then Ibro asked:

"What is your class?"

"My class is a dark magician. The great Ibro does not know my class! This is a big incident."

"I have information that will help you, but unfortunately, it will not help you now. When you go to Ihnasia city, you can go north towards the Ihnasia fissure. There you will replace a surprise that will delight you.

Just don't go there before you pass level30 at the very least. Likewise, if I replace a skill useful to you or any useful equipment, I will give it to you."

"Ihnasia fissure? I've never heard of this place! You are a portable secrets box!"

Ibro laughed at her words, and then said:

"Now I have to go to Apidon. When I solve this disaster, I will go to Ihnasia city to help you."

"Oh, really?"

"Yes, this is my word to you."

"Okay, then I will trust your word. I will try to strive hard to raise my level. By the way, do you advise me to repeat your experience in destroying strongholds?"

"Unfortunately, you cannot. Don't forget that the number of players in your village won't exceed the number of fingers on the hand. This quest needs a large army of players."

"But you did it on your own Ibro."

"Because I had a Mythic scroll, do you have a Mythic scroll too?"

She laughed and then said joking:

"If you give me this scroll, then I would be able to do this quest."

"You kidding, this scroll is a family treasure that I will pass it on to my grandchildren."

"Your grandchildren! You are a stingy man."

"I have no time. I am moving to Apidon now. You have no time to waste, as I can go to Ihnasia city today. But you are now wasting the opportunity to catch up with me."

"Okay, well, I'll go, stingy man."

They laughed before Oya closed the conversation with him. What a huge difference between his condition before and after his conversation with her.

The Mythic city of Apidon was known in his past life by the mysterious city. Players called it that because it was a mystery for players from all over the world.

A veil of mystery enveloped this city. All the info he got from the forums back then was very scarce.

Most of the info was talking about how living in this city was difficult. It was full of various types of scenarios, schemes, and secrets. Small pieces of information mentioned the strange name of a world related to this city called `Pnro'.

The source of this name and the extent of its relationship to Mythic city of Apidon and the game itself was unknown.

The fact that he did not know any solid facts about the Mythic city of Apidon was because this would be his first visit to the city. To his knowledge, only a handful of players went from the Heptian domain.

He took out his Apidon coin and checked it attentively. He did not know how to use the coin, as there were no hints for that in the forums. He even didn't know that to go to the Mythic city of Apidon he must use a coin!

He held the coin and flipped it in his hands more than once. On one side there was an inscription of an unknown language, and on the other side was the face of a person whom he did not know.

He grabbed the coin and rubbed it between his fingers, as he felt that there was some dust on top of it. He blew it gently to make its blue surface shine again.

The coin did not stop flashing, which began to increase significantly and strangely. He looked at the coin with a focus to hear a sound suddenly in his ears:

"Hey boy! Do you want to go to Apidon now? Your level is very weak. The fifteenth level, this is a low level."

Ibro trembled in surprise. He turned around in doubt, but he was alone among the ruins of the village. He asked with doubt:

"Who are you? Where are you hiding?"

"Ha-ha-ha, I am not hiding from you, I am in your hands, boy. I always adore your reactions when I first appear to you, coin holders. This is a moment that cannot be valued with any Brando coin."

"Are you the ghost of currency?"

"Ghost? Some call me this name when they meet me for the first time. You are not the first, boy. I am not a ghost; I am an ordinary person responsible for accepting requests to enter the world behind the walls of Apidon."

"Apidon login request manager?! Does the currency not give me an opportunity to enter the city directly?"

"Yes and no. You own the Apidon coin which can teleport you to Apidon, but before that, you must first go through a test phase before entering the world behind the walls of Apidon.

The truth is that this procedure is for your protection. You are very weak and will not be able to withstand the world behind the walls of Apidon for one minute."

Ibro realized that this voice was coming from the Mythic city of Apidon itself. Whoever he was, he was now evaluating him. He seemed not to approve his teleport to the city.

This was bad news for him and an unexpected surprise. He remembered everything that was said about that city, but no one mentioned the existence of a test phase before entering it.

He knew very well that if he failed to enter the Mythic city of Apidon, his fate would be sealed and he was doomed. So he racked up his mind and decided to do anything to enter this city. He quickly said:

"I know that my level is very low to enter the Mythic city of Apidon, but I heard a lot about the city of Apidon and its Mythic fame.

So when I decided to go from my own village towards the city, I did not choose my own city, but chose Apidon."

"Why are you taking that risk boy? You must not rush your destiny. You have an Apidon coin.

You are destined to cross the walls of Apidon. But I advise you not to take this step now while you are weak like this."

"Don't worry, sir. I did not choose to go to the Mythic city of Apidon in a rush but after a deep reflection. I reached my level in just two days.

I do not want to be like any ordinary player. I love challenges and I think the Mythic city of Apidon is a good challenge for me."

The man didn't speak as Ibro thought that he was reflecting on his logic. After a while, he warned:

"The world behind the walls of Apidon is beyond your imagination boy. Think again."

"Don't worry. I have a legendary scroll called the Land of Fire. If I replace myself in trouble I won't hesitate to use it. I will be able to get out of any trouble easily."

"Legendary Scroll? You have the Apidon coin and the Land of Fire legendary scroll in your possession?!"

"Yes. So do not worry about me. I told you that I love challenges and the Mythic city of Apidon is a new challenge for me."

"I like you boy. Although I know the dangers you will face while being in the world behind the walls of Apidon, I admire your courage and I will allow you to pass. This is the spirit we need in Apidon.

Well, I will send you behind the walls now. Tell me, what is your class?"

"My class is a dark magician."

"Good class. This explains much of your ability to progress that fast in two days. Tell me how many skills do you have?"

"I own three skills."

"Only three? You are kidding! How many times have you used the Land of Fire scroll? Did you use it four times?"

"No sir, I used it twice."

"Only twice? Did you reach that level with three skills and two times using the Land of Fire scroll? This is good, boy. Well, I like you more and more. I really love dealing with new people like you.

Ha-ha-ha I really like you boy. Listen, I will wait for you to reach the city of Apidon one day. When you get there, replace me. I'm called Mirath."

"Thank you. I will look for you when I arrive at the Mythic city of Apidon. I am called Ibro."

"Okay, Ibro. Good trip to you. When you reach the world behind the walls of Apidon, don't slow down. Hold the coin, and within five seconds I will take you to the world behind the walls of Apidon. My advice to you ..."

Then he fell silent as the coin began to flash in brilliant blue color. As soon as three seconds passed, the man said in a hurry:

"When you reach the world behind the walls of Apidon, do not stand still ... Run with all your might... Run as your life depends on it."
