The Hunter's Guide to Monsters

He was weak, he was depressed, he was a loser. He wasn't even Lvl 10 in the game when Earth was destroyed in the Quake and the players of Redlands were transmigrated to the fantastic world of Zushkenar. But he lived, learned, and died again. Now, he was back on Earth, one year and three months before the Quake. Deciding to rejoin the game earlier and with greater focus, what changes would he bring with his actions? What life would he live? * There's a map for the lands of Zushkenar posted on the DeviantArt website: https://www.deviantart.com/kilrain/art/Hunters-Guide-map-cities-grid-b-877682076 It's not complete, but it'll give an idea of the general geography. * The background image for the cover is part of a landscape by moinzon taken from pixabay.com

After the Tournament (3 of 3)

Evening had fallen when Krow returned to the courtyard.

Their host, Chaparha, was walking in the garden with Jamutaltei. They were deep in discussion, so he only nodded at them as he passed.

But Chaparha called his attention. "You've done well today, Krow."

"Better than expected," he agreed.

Chaparha studied him, surprised. "You don't seem too caring of your loss."

"It was not a fight I could win." With a sword, anyway. "I knew that going in."

"And you accepted still?" Chaparha huffed. But waved away a response. "No matter. It shows you have a head on your shoulders at least. Unexpected, for one your age."

Krow lifted the edges of his lips, but didn't reply.

"A good trait for a guard. I suppose I could see why that old man hired you. If you had won…" Chaparha shook his head. "perhaps the consequences for Cerkanst would have been worse than simple rumor."

They would?

Krow thought over the information he knew.
