"Fantastic!" Aezir could not help but exclaim. 'This is just like those RPG games, and I guess other novels as well.' He thought. 'The System said that it can be found throughout the world; the million-dollar question is, where exactly?' Aezir contemplated as he looked around the vast land he was currently at. 'Nevertheless, let me open the reward first.' he thought with a bright smile.

'A little underwhelming. I thought it would contain broken kinds of stuff, damn. I guess the map is amazing.' Aezir lamented. ' I just need to make do of what I got. Let me visit the shop first.'

Aezir was mesmerized by the contents of the shop. There were various potions, books, weapons, and a lot more. There was even more stuff that Aezir did not know of. Inwardly, Aezir could not help but be ecstatic. This was the kind of life he wanted. Albeit full of danger, it is progressive.

Afterward, Aezir contemplated on which stat he would buff. He was very tempted to enhance his Mana since his curiosity was killing him already. Furthermore, he also found an Advanced-tier Basic Mana Book in the store, which was said to contain every basic concept about Mana. However, he ultimately decided to increase his Speed. He reckoned that he would be busy collecting Random Class Cards. He must be quick so as not to be left behind.

When he finished drinking the potion, he quickly pulled out the map. 'Woah.' He could not help but exclaim after he saw plenty of red dots on the map indicating the position of Random Class Cards (RRC). Without wasting any more time, he ran to the nearest one and started his collection.

He continued to run until he got close to the location of the first RCC. There he found his neighbors looking around. 'It seems like everyone got a map.' Aezir sighed. 'Where is it?' His map suddenly zoomed in on his location and revealed the specific area where the RRC is located. 'There we go. Great!' he thought joyfully.

With a goal in mind, he swiftly passed through the people around and reached out for the RCC that was stuck between the branches of a fallen tree. It was covered by leaves, so it was hard to notice.

Noticing his actions, the people around him glared at him so hard that if stares could kill, he would have been dead by now.

"Aezir, why don't you hand over that Random Class Card to me. Treat this as a payment for all those times I helped you," said a forty-year-old man.

"I did appreciate your help back then, Kuya Jose, but this is a different matter," Aezir said. When he was struggling, Jose did help him a lot, especially when he needed to borrow money. 'Alas, I am not a saint. The world is different now. I need power.' Aezir defended his actions in his mind. He was conflicted since the man did help him before; however, he could not give him his spoils. He wants to climb to the top of the food chain of this new world. 'I will not take any chances!' He concluded. [1]

"How hypocritical! Boy, you don't even know how to look from whence you came!" Jose shouted. He did not do anything else, though. Even the people around only looked at Aezir with scorn.

'Maybe it is because of the novels I read that changed me like this. Alas, if there is one thing I learned from those, blind kindness in a world of power will rob you of everything you have. The only thing that matters in a world governed by real power is power!' Aezir thought. 'Alas, this world will devour them whole and spit them out.' He could not help but pity the kind nature of his fellow citizens. 'It went down like this, so let me take on the role of the villain,' He concluded with a grin.

After getting the RCC, he swiftly ran away from the scene and proceeded to gather as much RCC as possible.

[1] “Kuya” is a term used for men older than the speaker in the Philippines. To call someone “Kuya” is a sign of respect.
