Misha told everything during the tutorial to Moo, who stood in silence. Also, Misha told him about her VIP10 status, which carried over from the closed-beta period.

Moo was speechless when he found out that Misha was once a bettester. He cried in envy.

"I wish I could play in the beta test, too."

Misha sighed, "It was not a pleasant testing period. Well, let's move on and find a quest to do or a monster to kill."

"Wait, how do you get the VIP status? I want that EXP bonus, too."

"You have to spend diamonds or buy it from the game company. Do you have diamonds?"

"Obviously, I'm a hunter family. My signature, Catto Kicku, has slain many of our nemesis, Catto Fishu, and we got so many diamonds that it flooded my piggy bank, Nya."

"… Oh, cool. How many do you have? Do you have enough to buy VIP10?"

"I have 10 diamonds, Nya."

"…"

"Mia, lend me some diamonds. I'll let you borrow my Catto d.i.c.ku, so you can enjoy your no-nut-novemBOOOF!"

Misha kicked him to the nuts again. Now, Moo had less than half of his HP bar left.

Out of pity, Misha opened her inventory to look for a potion for him in reflex.

When she saw her inventory menu, her mouth was agape.

All stored items from the beta period were still there!

'JACKPOT!!'

Several carca.s.ses of monsters, ant corpses, potions, gels, and her diamonds were still in there.

Without hesitation, she tossed a healing potion at Moo. Then, she sorted all the items in her VIP inventory.

Misha had forgotten about these items.

Since she had just thrown a bottle of potion from the inventory at Moo, Misha confirmed that all items could be used in this casual server.

Now that it came back, she wondered if it worth investing these items into the casual server game by selling them for the in-game cash.

'I should find a place to sell these useless junks.'

While Misha was sorting her items, Moo was surprised by the potion that came out of nowhere.

"Where did you get this, Nya?"

"VIP Shop. Diamond items."

"HOLY s.h.i.+TTO!! You're freaking rich, Nya! Isn't this bottle sold for 100 diamonds?"

"You can get it dirt cheap if you buy a daily VIP10 pack."

"Let me wors.h.i.+p you, Mia! Be my G.o.d … well, my G.o.ddess."

"Stop that. Let's go find a quest to do or a monster to kill. We waste enough time already."

"Okay! Please carry me from now on, hehehe!"

"…"

Misha sighed. Moo could be handy at times, but he was a good fella. Also, his real life's martial arts were on par with GG sisters. When he was serious, he could fight in a one-on-one match against Sasha or Natalie to a standstill, as long as none of them use their psychic power or a soul attack.

.

After exploring the newbie town for another half an hour, combined with the default game's mini-map, they understood the layout of the city.

Also, they heard a conversation between professional gamers, who had already explored the city and gathered valuable information for their colleagues.

Masters of various crafts were hiding in the resident district. To get them to teach a player anything, they would hand out chain quests to players.

Moo grinned, "Should we go and take a look?"

Misha nodded, "Looking won't hurt. Let's go."

As Misha and Moo left the central square to the residential area, a thousand players had already crowded the G.o.ddess Lilim's Statue, fighting a black slime in the tutorial quest.

None of them managed to beat the black slime with their "Imagination Attack" since it was their first time experiencing a battle between souls.

After the tutorial, players ended up with the level range of 3 to 5.

Once the quest was completed, they were left hanging without any further guide or a.s.sistance from the game. Thus, many players did not know what they should do next.

There was no adventurer guild nor a crafting guild to receive quests. There was no mayor or a town elder to give events either.

Players were at a loss! They did not know how they can raise their level!

As a result, Misha's level and her overall status points became the center of attention. Many professional gamers sent private messages, hoping to learn about the next step of the game or getting info from Misha.

Unfortunately, Misha turned off her private message system, so she could enjoy her privacy. Furthermore, she set her game option to reject all friend requests automatically.

Pro-gamers were restless as someone had taken a major lead. Still, they got enough information to proceed in-game.

Misha, Moo, and a dozen pro-gamers wandered in the residential district.

The stone houses and architecture style resembled the ancient Rome. Marble stone statues of naked humans were also everywhere.

Different from the Ancient Roman's s.e.xual tastes, men had long and large a.s.sets, while women had S curve body lines. The genitals were also in detail, which made Moo drool.

"If they paint them with realistic painting, they would have made a fine s.e.x toy out of this."

Misha facepalmed, "Is that all that you can think?"

"What? I appreciate art and beauty! If I had one of these, I wouldn't have placed them in front of my house. I would have customized their lower part and add an onah-OOOF!"

Misha kicked his nuts again to cut his vulgar speech.

"HAHAHAHAHA!"

While Moo was holding his crotch in pain, the laughter of an elder came from behind them.

When they looked back, they found a withered old man sitting on a long bench. He did not have a hair or a beard on his face. Yet, he smiled at the two players.

"You, that cat boy. You have a good sense of taste!"

Moo grinned, "Obviously, I'm a Catto of culture. I appreciate beautiful p.u.s.s.ies if I see one."

"That's the spirit, boy! People these days are too timid! They must express their inner desire and be outgoing! You have a good character, cat boy. Say, do you interest in these arts? Do you want to be a sculptor?"

"OHHH!! Are you by chance a moonlight sculptor from the legend?"

"What's that? Well, I'm a master sculptor, though. I can teach you sculpting arts, golem arts, and stone mining. Do you want to be my apprentice?"

Without thinking, Moo laughed, "Yes, please!"

"Hahaha, good boy!"

"…"

Misha stared at Moo, dumbfounded. It seemed that Moo had activated a quest condition and got an acknowledgment from a master.

Unfortunately, Misha did not get any system prompt. The elder did not even pay attention to her.

Moo realized that Misha was left out of their conversation, and the elder did not talk to her. He tried to convince the master.

"Master, I mean … I have a good friend here. Can you teach her, too?"

The elder snorted, "I have enough energy to teach one apprentice! I also don't teach a thot! Women don't understand my arts!"

Misha had an urge to beat this elder to a pulp for some reason. Still, she smiled and turned to Moo.

"I'll be fine on my own. You work on your quests here and train under him. He said something about golem arts, right? Maybe you can craft statues and create golem with them."

"… Okay. Sorry, Mia."

"Don't be. I'll be going now."

"Okay. I'll make sure to create a naked statue of your avatar. Then I'll make it into my-"

Misha's killing intent exploded out, which scared Moo.

"I'll be off," Misha left them alone.

.

Misha wandered the street by herself. She tried to initiate a conversation with random town folks, but they were afraid of her. Some even avoided Misha by shutting their house doors and windows.

'Is it because I'm a dragonewt?'

With a theory, Misha explored her game menu to search for relations.h.i.+p status.

Sure enough, she found a piece of bad news.

The relations.h.i.+p with the humans of the newbie town, Lilim's Sanctuary, was listed as [Hate].

'I haven't done anything to them, but they hate me?'

Misha frowned. It was strange since there were many dragonewt NPCs in this town walking around, so racial discrimination should not be the explanation.

To get an answer, Misha searched for a local dragonewt to investigate.

It was not hard to find one. Two male African-American dragonewts were idling on the street, smoking meowjuana.

"Excuse me. Can I ask you something?"

Seeing a beautiful dragonewt approaching, the two men smiled at her.

"What's up, babe?"

"I'm new here, and I don't know why humans hate me. Do you know why?"

"Oh, that?" One of them snickered, "Those fools thought that we were some kind of bloodthirsty man-eating mutants. They're just a bunch of immature dumb motherf.u.c.ker. h.e.l.l, it was us that fought for them whenever s.h.i.+t goes south."

The other one also laughed, "Stereotype humans. Don't mind them. They're just being stupid and narrow-minded."

Misha got a general idea, "Oh, okay. Well, can you tell me where I can find work? I'm looking for a job at the moment."

The two mutants looked at each other. They shrugged and smiled bitterly at Misha, "Dragonewts are all conscripted to join the army by default. Aside from the military, no one is willing to hire us."

"What!?"

"Yo, I'm sorry, babe. You can't find a job in the hood. Unless you want to join the army, no one is going to take you in."

"…"

Misha was on the verge of crying. The prejudice against mutants was real.

"But, do you two work?"

The two dragonewts laughed, "We don't. We're retired," One of them pointed at their missing left arm while the other pointed at their missing right leg.

Misha's frown deepened. She did not notice it when she had approached them.

Moreover, those missing limbs should not exist in any dragonewt's dictionary since they had self-regeneration abilities like a lizard.

"Can't your eggcat partner heal you? Normally, they should be able to regenerate your lost limbs, right?"

"What eggcat?"

"A symbiosis creature inside you. Hey, Tama. Can you say h.e.l.lo?"

*Mew* (What's up, nigg!)

The two of them looked around in confusion.

"Are you carrying a cat somewhere?"

"…"

Misha was shocked that these people did not know about eggcats. Without these cute little egg monsters, they should not be able to mutate into a dragonewt.

"How did you two become a dragonewt?"

"Huh? Obviously, G.o.ddess Lilim blessed us with the power to fight back against the Demon King Army. We just turned into this after we hit our teens. To be honest, we didn't give a s.h.i.+t about that."

"…"

Misha thought to herself, 'Something was definitely wrong with these people. Are they really the same dragonewts with the other dragonewt in the beta!?'

The two black dragonewts shrugged it off and looked at their burnt joints. The meowjuana smoke in their hands had been used.

An idea came to their mind.

"Well, we can give you a few tips. If you can buy us a pack of weeds from the demi-hydra slum, we can teach you a thing or two."

A quest prompt appeared, but Misha disregarded it as she had another idea.

"What if I can restore your arm and your leg, what can you teach me?"

The two black dragonewts laughed again.

"If you can do that, I'll make you the most bada.s.s b.i.t.c.h in the hood."

"Don't call the lady b.i.t.c.h, nig***!! Well, I can make you a Super Saiyan John Wick if you turn my missing right leg into a lump of meat larger than my third leg."

Misha snickered. He opened her inventory and took out two healing potions.

"Don't forget your promise."
