"Mr. Karl!"
As evening approached and the shop was about to close, the guard Jie came over and whispered, "Mr. Charlie instructed me to give you a gift. Please follow me after the shop closes."
"Oh!" Carl stopped his accounting and looked up curiously. "What gift?"
"Mr. Charlie ordered me to keep it a secret," Jie said with a smile. "But I can assure you, you'll definitely like it."
"Really?" Carl nodded. "I am looking forward to it."
「Shortly after.」
As the sky darkened and the shop closed, Carl followed the guard Jie towards the outskirts of the market.
"Mr. Karl," Jie spoke softly. "You come from the distant Kaliem Continent and are a disciple of the Six Rings Tower. You're accustomed to a peaceful life, but the Magic Forest is different from your former home. It's fraught with barbarism and slaughter."
"You'll need time to get used to it. Mr. Charlie's gift will help you adapt to this environment."
