New Title Acquired
Golden Eye of the Golden Child
As a holder of the golden eyes, your rights have been determined by birth. But as children of the golden generation, you have no family to inherit or favor to be graced with. However, fret not, as the king granted you the chance to receive a territory and be a beacon of hope for this country.
This title gives you the same standing as that of a High Noble.
”Your grace, there is one final thing I need to show you.” Thomas closed his eyes and his hand glowed golden. He touched Shesmu's forehead with his finger and a notification appeared in front of him.

”You guys are finally done?”
Leonard, who stood silent for the whole time at the corner finally spoke.
”By the name of all the aspects in the sky, what took you so long?”
”How rude!” Thomas objected. He looked at Shesmu and said, ”Please, your grace, forgive this peasant for not knowing how to behave.”
”Ah, whatever.” Leonard grabbed Shesmu by the hand and said. ”Let's go Shesmu, there is still other stuff that you need to know.”
Shesmu looked back at Thomas only to see him bowing in his direction. ”Farewell, your grace. May your adventures in this world be full of thrill and happiness.”
Shesmu smiled back at Thomas and said, ”Farewell, Thomas. I enjoyed your company very much.”
The two made their way towards the building, leaving Thomas back in his desk. After leaving through the gates, Shesmu looked around to see the buildings surrounding the hall.
”This building that we just came out of is called the Warrior's Hall. It's where the new beginner warriors get their initiation. The other buildings you see do the same but for the other classes.”
The surroundings of Shesmu resembled a small village. There were buildings everywhere. Homes, halls, churches, and towers. The place was packed. Surrounding it all was a wall of stone. And in each corner, there was a watchtower, looking out for danger.
”The tower over there is where the mage newbies spawn. That church is for priests, and that hall is for assassins. But those don't really matter to you now. The interesting bit is behind all of those: The training ground.”
Shesmu walked after Leonard while looking at the other buildings. Players came out, accompanied by their instructor. They all wore different sets of clothes, robes, cloaks, chainmails, and gowns.
Finally, the two reached the training ground. An open space with dummies all around.
”So, Shesmu. Let me do some explanations first before letting you on your way. The space around you is the training ground.” He then walked and said, ”Reveal.”
The earth glowed in a bright shade of orange. Pillars of golden light appeared all over the training ground. Light made its way from one pillar to the next forming a pentagon. And finally, two circles surrounded the formation, with runes slowly popping into existence between the perimeters of the two.
Shesmu covered his eyes from the blinding light. After opening them again, he gasped at the sight of the magic circle. Woah, this one is huge. Is it a tier III spell?
”This little gem here is the cornerstone on which this whole camp was built. You can train all you want, you'll never run out of energy.”
Shesmu did know about this ability, he just didn't know that what was holding it was a tier III spell. Seems like they got a really talented enchanter to make this one.
Leonard coughed to catch Shesmu's attention before talking with a serious voice. ”The reason why I came with you here is but one. It's for one final lesson. The technique that I'll show you isn't a spell that you could just call in your mind for it to activate. You need to have an extremely strong vision and unparalleled talent.”
He then took a deep breath and said. ”Look and listen, I'll only say this once. Focus on your mind, focus on your spirit, focus on everything that makes you, you.”
