At the center of that darkness stood a small town lit by lanterns.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the town’s entrance, people were rushing back inside. Many moved in groups, while only a few walked alone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Among the returning crowds, Thoren breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the town gate still open.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had not expected the night to descend so abruptly. He believed there would be an hour or two before nightfall, but he was wrong.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Walking through the town, he found it bustling with activity. Warriors moved back and forth, their faces split by smiles.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They had survived another day in the Abyss.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He moved quickly through the streets, searching for an inn. Most were full, and at last he found one at the end of a street.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Entering the dilapidated inn, Thoren saw a young, beautiful girl behind the counter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is there any room available?\" he asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes,\" she replied with a welcoming smile. \"We have a shared room and a single room. Which one would you prefer?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Single room,\" Thoren replied without hesitation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why would he share a room with someone he did not know? Besides, he wasn’t short on money.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That will be ten copper coins,\" she said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thoren didn’t think twice and pulled ten copper coins from his inventory.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Receiving the money, her smile brightened, and she added, \"You must be hungry. Our best meal costs five copper coins.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at her smiling face, Thoren hesitated and shivered slightly. It felt as if he were being watched by a ravenous beast.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is she thinking of devouring me?\" he wondered, taking a small step back subconsciously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She noticed his reaction and chuckled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was not the first time people had reacted to her in that way, but she didn’t care.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As long as she could earn money, nothing else mattered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So what do you say? Should I add a meal to it?\" she asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sure,\" Thoren nodded, still wary.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Very well.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She could not hide her joy as she rubbed her palms together and accepted the five copper coins.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Please follow me.\" She gestured and led Thoren to the second floor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the second floor, she guided him to one of the rooms. The room was small but tidy. The bed was compact, like a student bed, and the curtains were clean but faded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Wait a moment, I’ll bring your meal,\" she said, departing happily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thoren did not respond and entered the room. Though small and a bit worn, it was still manageable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He sat at the edge of the bed and took a deep breath. He could finally relax his nerves.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had been working hard to increase his strength. He turned his attention to his stats and could not help but feel proud.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Name: Thoren Starfall]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Occupation: Necromancer]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Rank: Iron]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Level: 4 (700\u002F1800)]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Attributes: Strength 6, Agility 8, Constitution 7, Intelligence 14, Perception 10, Charm 12]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Spirit: 12.49]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Skills: Undead Summoning, Bone Manipulation Skill]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Talent: Undead Space]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Abyss Market: Unavailable (Available at Bronze Rank)]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Attributes Points: 15]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Inventory]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hm. I’m already close to halfway to reaching level five,\" he mused, resting a hand on his chin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the beginning, leveling up to higher levels was easy, but as the levels increased, the difficulty followed suit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, to reach the next level, he needed twice the experience of Level 4.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What about the higher levels?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He realized why many were stuck on the first floor for years without a chance to ascend.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No matter how difficult it is, I must clear the first floor in 14 days.\" His eyes burned with determination.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just then, a slight knock came from the door. He rose and went to open it. Standing there was the girl with a small tray, carrying a meat soup.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Please enjoy,\" she smiled. \"If you need anything, please don’t hesitate to tell me. As long as money is involved, I can help you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thoren nodded and accepted the tray. \"With such a gaze, I would be crazy to ask for more,\" he thought, preparing to lock the door when she stopped him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I won’t charge you for this,\" she said seriously. \"Tonight, the town might not be peaceful, and you must be prepared to defend yourself.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hmm?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thoren was stunned but recovered quickly. \"What will happen?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had thought the area around the town had been conquered by humans and that the town was peaceful, but now... it seemed he had been naive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Watching his expression, she giggled. \"You must be a fresh awakener, right?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without waiting for Thoren to respond, she continued. \"Just because we’re in the town doesn’t mean we’re safe. Remember that, or you won’t know how you will die.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Little brother, don’t die on your first night in the Abyss,\" she teased and departed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thoren stood frozen for a moment before slamming the door shut and locking it. His heart pounded heavily, like a war drum.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had hoped to be safe in town, but now he realized his thoughts were naive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He shook his head and decided not to dwell on it. He examined the meat soup, and his stomach rumbled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hungry, he sat down and devoured the soup with relish. Although the inn was dilapidated, the meal was delicious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With his hunger satisfied, he could now focus on surviving the night.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I need to increase my strength,\" he mused.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although a necromancer might be physically weak compared to others, his talent did not carry that weakness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He did not need to focus on his summons as much as on himself. With fifteen unallocated points, this was a chance to grow stronger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He began to allocate the points.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Strength 6 + (8) Agility 8 (+2) Constitution 7 (+3) Perception 10 (+2)]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Attribute Points: 0]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instantly, he felt the change in his body.
