Capítulo 15: Arriving At Tagharuim Kingdom
As August entered the forest, the canopy of trees overhead filtered the sunlight, casting dappled shadows on the ground.
The air was fresh, filled with the scent of pine and earth. Birds chirped in the distance, and the rustling of leaves added a sense of tranquility to the surroundings.
August found a secluded clearing and decided it was a good spot to start his tests. He took a deep breath and opened his player database once more to review his new skills.
Fireball: Cast a ball of fire at your enemies, dealing significant damage.
Arcane Shield: Create a magical barrier that absorbs incoming damage for a short period.
Eager to see the Fireball spell in action, August focused on a nearby tree. He raised his hand, channeling his Mana into the spell.

A ball of fire formed in his palm, growing brighter and hotter with each passing second. With a flick of his wrist, he hurled the Fireball at the tree.
The spell shot forward, leaving a trail of heat in its wake.
It collided with the tree trunk, exploding on impact and sending shards of bark flying. Flames licked at the wood, charring it and leaving a blackened scorch mark.
August couldn't help but smile in satisfaction. The Fireball was powerful and precise, just as he had hoped.
Next, he decided to test the Arcane Shield. He imagined the magical barrier forming around him, visualizing its protective energy.
<[ Player Has Activated Arcane Shield ]>
[ -70 MP ]
Countdown > 00:30:00
As he focused, a shimmering, translucent shield materialized, standing in a curve format before him.
He felt a sense of security as the shield absorbed the ambient energy around him, reinforcing its strength.
He couldn't properly test its durability without being in a battle but he decided to unsheath his dagger and struck the shield.
The impact was absorbed effortlessly as the barrier held firm. August nodded, pleased with the results.
The Arcane Shield would provide excellent defense in battle, allowing him to withstand attacks while he planned his next move.
With both spells successfully tested, August turned his attention to combining his magical abilities with his Assassin skills. He moved stealthily through the forest, practicing his Shadow Dance to blend into the surroundings while preparing Fireball spells.
The combination of stealth and surprise attacks made him feel incredibly powerful.
He imagined scenarios where he could use his dual class to outmaneuver and overpower his enemies. The possibilities were endless, and each new strategy filled him with excitement.
After an hour of rigorous testing, August felt confident in his new abilities. The forest had proven to be the perfect training ground, allowing him to explore the limits of his power without interruption.
He took a moment to sit on a fallen log so as to reflect on the journey ahead.
With his new dual-class abilities fresh in his mind, August decided to further explore his player database. He wanted to ensure he was fully prepared for the challenges ahead.
Opening the player interface, he navigated to the sub-stats section, which displayed detailed information about his various attributes and skills.
A familiar system panel appeared before him:

August reviewed his current sub-stats and skill levels, noting areas that could use improvement.
He had accumulated 150 points, which he could allocate to enhance his attributes. Given his recent experiences and the need for a balanced approach, he decided to focus on increasing his speed, agility, and strength.
[Would you like to allocate points?]
<[YES]> <[NO]>
August selected yes and a new panel appeared, allowing him to distribute the points.

August felt a surge of energy as the points took effect, enhancing his physical attributes significantly.
He flexed his muscles, feeling the newfound strength coursing through him. His movements felt lighter and more precise.
"Time to put these upgrades to the test," he thought while his excitement built up.
With his new dual-class abilities fresh in his mind and his sub-stats enhanced, August felt more prepared than ever for the challenges ahead.
It was finally time to leave the Village of Unhidden Mist and join other players in more populated areas where he could grind and progress better. He made his way to the teleportation hub just outside the village.
The teleportation hub was a quiet, almost serene area.
The circular platform was adorned with glowing runes and arcane symbols, pulsing with magical energy. In the center stood a tall obelisk, covered in intricate carvings and radiating a soft, blue light.
Only a few players were present, each standing silently as they prepared for their own journeys.
August approached the obelisk in anticipation. This was his gateway to the broader world of Enders Light. He examined the list of available coordinates displayed on a floating screen next to the obelisk, searching for his destination.
After a moment of consideration, he selected one of the most popular places frequented by players: Tagharuim Kingdom. Known for its vast resources, challenging quests, and vibrant player community, Tagharuim was the perfect place for August to continue his journey and further hone his skills.
He reached out and touched the coordinate on the screen, and a system notification appeared before him:
[Confirm Teleportation to Tagharuim Kingdom?]
<[YES]> <[NO]>
August selected [YES], and the obelisk began to chime with energy. The runes and symbols on the platform glowed brighter, and a swirling vortex of light enveloped him. The sensation of weightlessness washed over him as the teleportation process began.
The world around him blurred and twisted, the familiar surroundings of the Village of Unhidden Mist fading away.
Moments later, the light dimmed, and he found himself standing in a bustling plaza at the heart of Tagharuim Kingdom.
Tagharuim Kingdom was a sight to behold. The city was a sprawling metropolis, filled with towering buildings, majestic castles, and bustling marketplaces.
The streets were alive with activity, players and NPCs moving about with purpose. The air was filled with the sounds of merchants hawking their wares, blacksmiths hammering at their forges, and adventurers discussing their latest quests.
As soon as August materialized in the plaza, a system notification appeared before him:
[Congratulations! You have entered Tagharuim Kingdom for the first time.]
[Rewards: 1000 EXP +50 Gold +Map of Tagharuim Kingdom]
He felt the weight in his coin pouch increase, and a detailed map of the kingdom appeared in his inventory.
With a look of satisfaction, he began to walk around the kingdom, eager to take in the sights he had only read about in articles online.
The plaza was surrounded by grandiose architecture, with intricate details and vibrant colors. Banners fluttered in the breeze, bearing the emblem of Tagharuim—an elegant dragon intertwined with a crescent moon.
Cobblestone streets wound their way through the city, leading to various districts and landmarks.
As August wandered through the streets, he observed his surroundings. Players loitered about, their levels displayed above their heads, ranging from 20 to 32. Some players had hidden their levels, adding an air of mystery.
He couldn't help but notice a few players snickering and pointing in his direction.
"Look at that noob, only level 13," one player said with a tone of mockery.
"How did he even make it here?" another added, laughing.
August ignored their comments and focused on exploring the city. He walked past the grand marketplace, where vendors sold a variety of goods, from exotic weapons and enchanted armor to rare potions and magical trinkets. The air was filled with the scent of spices and the sound of lively haggling.
He continued on to the Questing District, where adventurers gathered to take on missions and challenges. Bulletin boards were plastered with quest notices, each promising rewards for various tasks.
The Combat Arena loomed in the distance, a place where players tested their skills against one another in friendly duels or organized tournaments which brought about mouth watering rewards.
The city was wonderful and filled with so many options. He knew that grinding monsters in this region would provide much better EXP than the low-level creatures near Unhidden Mist.
His next goal was clear: to increase his levels and become stronger.
