Arthur glanced at the stats one last time, a faint smirk tugging at his lips.
"Insane."
"Without Neko, defeating him would've taken me—and the others—longer.
Satisfied, he wore his mask, feeling the cool material mould to his face as his features shifted into an unremarkable, random visage.
Just another player now. Nothing special.
Stepping out of the building, he felt it instantly—Many eyes on him. Watching. Assessing.
'Of course, Adam would place spies here. He's still suspicious. But no matter...' Arthur mused. 'He'll never guess I'm hiding behind this mask.''
He rolled his shoulders, adjusting his posture to fit the role he was about to play—a player just released from prison, clueless and eager to catch up on what happened during his imprisonment. Natural. Unassuming.
His eyes scanned the bustling village until they landed on a nearby player.
Perfect.
Arthur sauntered over casually.
Then, a ripple of movement was accompanied by a loud sound of movement.
Arthur moved his eyes towards the direction where the loud sound came.
The mayor, Charles, appeared, cutting through the crowd. His dark robes swayed with each step, the insignia of the village proudly displayed on his chest.
Behind him were two guards and behind them were a sea of players.
Hundreds, maybe more.
They followed like moths drawn to a flame.
They had clearly heard the mayor's announcement and were eager to witness the grand opening of the village's new training ground.
Arthur's eyes narrowed.
'Perfect. Everything is going according to plan.'
The mayor stood atop a raised wooden platform in front of the crowd, his voice carrying across the bustling plaza.
His tone was confident, clear, and charismatic as he explained the new training ground's system to the gathered players.
He detailed the structured training regimens, the resources available, and the rewards that awaited those who excelled—ensuring that every player understood the value of this new addition to the village.
"And with that," the mayor concluded, raising his hand high, "I officially declare the training grounds... open!"
A cheer erupted from the crowd as the gates to the training ground swung open.
Inside, several guards already stood at attention, maintaining order.
A few wooden tables were set up neatly along the perimeter, each manned by an official ready to assist eager players with their registrations.
Arthur, having strategically positioned himself near the front, stepped forward calmly as the line formed behind him. His expression was neutral, but his mind was already working several steps ahead. This wasn't just about training—it was an opportunity.
A new identity. Another layer of protection in the village would allow him to enter the mayor's office when he wanted without raising suspicion.
He hated that he had to sneak in, but he had no choice. He was akin to a prisoner in the military, and he didn't want to be found out at all.
He approached one of the tables where a young man, a few years older than Arthur, greeted him with a professional smile.
"Hello, sir. Would you like to register as a full-time instructor or part-time instructor?"
Arthur returned the smile, his voice even. "I'd like to register as a part-time instructor."
The young man nodded. "And your name or nickname, sir?"
Arthur's eyes gleamed for a brief moment before he answered, "Swordmaster."
He wanted to instruct the people on how to use swords. He had good proficiency in swords since the rare skill had given him some mastery over swords. Furthermore, he could always go back to the city and buy a swordsman skill that would increase his mastery.
"Alright, sir. Your contract is almost ready. Just a few more steps before your recruitment is finalized. You'll need to pass an interview with one of our main instructors." Discover hidden content at My Virtual Library Empire
