Chapter 13: City square
Zane walked into the city, and right off the bat, the nostalgia hit him. He couldn’t remember the last time in the game he came to Raven City. When compared to other cities and kingdoms, it was very lackluster, and top players like him could have absolutely nothing to do here.
The stone houses, the cobblestone streets. They had some massive structures made of black bricks and more, but those were special buildings with difficult purposes.
For now, Zane wanted to understand the current state of things with players. What plans had been made and how they had adapted to the situation.
After seeing those ones out in the forest, he had a feeling some of them had taken it well and were already looking to grow. Sadly, he basically ruined the growth potential of those ten completely.
By the time they managed to gather any resources to fully heal themselves, others would have surely leveled up and gone far ahead.
Zane saw a few people walking around, doing one thing or the other, but so far he had not seen any players.
Though the people around kept looking at him and Lucy and whispering, some men couldn’t keep their eyes off Lucy, and most of the women would look at Zane, say something, and then giggle.
’I guess being this good looking draws attention, hehe, I could really get used to this.’ Zane thought, a hidden narcissistic part of him crept out. But one had to be realistic, who wouldn’t love it if he got so good-looking he pulled looks from across the street? In Zane’s mind, anyone that said they wouldn’t was a liar.
After walking a few minutes, he decided to ask around, so he stopped in front of a man who was about to cross the road. The man was a middle-aged man with some grey hair, a rough stubble on his chin.
"Hey," Zane called out. "Good day," he greeted.
