Orion looked at the two of them, who were shivering in fear, and said calmly, "So, tell , how can one summon their Divine Soul here?"
"I know, I know," Lewis imdiately responded in a flattering manner.
"Tell , then," Orion smiled at Lewis.
Lewis gulped at the sight of Orion's smile and said, "Since you just arrived in Grimshore, your Divine Soul must still be in its Image Form, aning it cannot manifest itself. In that case, the only way to summon your Divine Soul is by using a catalyst, sothing solid that can help manifest things in their Image Form—like a sword, any weapon, or any solid object one can find."
A look of understanding dawned on Orion as he listened. He realized that all this ti, he had been trying various thods to summon his Divine Soul.
'No wonder I failed so miserably.'
Orion looked at the two again and asked another question, "What is the big wall in the distance for?"
"I know! I'll tell you!" Drax quickly nodded, not wanting to let Lewis steal his chance again.
"Go on," Orion said.
Drax nodded and explained, "That is the fortress city of Desre. Once night falls, the entire Desre forest will be overrun by monsters. A long ti ago, the city was built to provide protection, and it's located behind those walls."
Orion nodded in understanding. He had speculated there might be a city there based on his dreams, and it had sohow co true.
Ignoring the striking coincidences between his dream and Grimshore, he asked again, "Tell anything else I should know—very important but basic things that almost everyone in Grimshore would be aware of."
Lewis and Drax exchanged glances before Lewis spoke, "You need to reach level 30 to et the requirents in the three domains to upgrade your rank to Platinum."
He continued, "Also, this world we're in is only one part of Grimshore. There's another part, accessible only to those who have reached level 100 or higher."
Orion's eyes narrowed as he heard this. Isis had told him to level up as quickly as possible to level 100, and from what Lewis had said, he was now more certain she wanted him to reach that other part of Grimshore.
'At least one of her goals is clear to ,' Orion thought, sighing. He looked at the two of them and asked, "Anything else?"
"Yes, yes," Drax nodded and added, "You need to level up to 60 to upgrade your rank from Platinum to Diamond, and level 90 to upgrade from Diamond to Crown."
Orion frowned at this. If what Drax said was true, he would need to upgrade to Crown rank before even considering leveling up to 100, and he knew that wouldn't happen anyti soon—in fact, it would take a very long ti to reach Crown rank.
'I hope when Isis said I needed to level up to 100 quickly, she only ant within a decade, or I'm in trouble,' Orion thought with a solemn expression, turning his attention back to the two as Lewis spoke again.
"Also, you can't really die in this world. If you die below level 30, your level will be reset to 1, and that's the only penalty for dying," Lewis said quickly.
Orion nodded. He felt he had grasped most of the basics about Grimshore. People needed to hunt monsters to collect Soul Shards and upgrade their levels, and at the sa ti, they had to comprehend the true na of their Divine Soul before upgrading it to Solid Form with the help of Soul Shards.
"Tell one more thing: are there any benefits to killing other humans or people from other races?" Orion asked with a smile that, to both Drax and Lewis, looked like the smile of a devil.
Lewis sighed in defeat and said, "You can get a portion of soone's soul power after killing them, whether they're human or from another race."
A wide smile spread across Orion's face. If people couldn't truly die in this world, there was bound to be rciless killing. He had hoped for so benefits from such killings, and indeed, there were.
"Alright, you two can go now," Orion said, slashing with his sword and killing them. However, their corpses transford into blue particles and disappeared into the air.
'I can't give away my location just yet, so I can't let you two live,' Orion thought as he headed toward the wall. He was eager to see what the city and its people were like.
On his way, he changed his appearance back to that of Ray Wiser. He didn't want to attract any attention for now. There was a ti and place for everything.
As he moved toward the city walls, he encountered many monsters, each battle tough as Orion could only use his Stormcaller curse in the guise of Ray Wiser. It was limiting, but it was all he had for the mont.
'The next ti I co here, I'll bring a mask.'
Orion thought as he swiftly made his way toward the towering walls in the distance.
After so ti, he passed through the forest and entered a plain region with small yellow grasses, stones, and boulders scattered along the path.
He could also see the massive walls clearly now.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Suddenly, three projectiles flew at him at super speed. Orion quickly evaded them and scanned the area for his attacker, spotting a huge boulder ahead.
"Co on out now. I know there are three of you hiding behind that boulder," he shouted.
"Hehe, big brother, this newbie's sharp. He found us so fast," a fat man with a large mole on his forehead erged from behind the boulder, followed by two others.
"Second, what did I tell you? There are bound to be several geniuses here, so don't attack everyone," the man with a sword on his back reprimanded the fat man. He had long black hair, and a glaring stitch mark ran across his face.
"Big brother, now that second brother's already attacked, shouldn't we finish this guy off?" the last of the three, the biggest one, asked. He had a hamr strapped to his back, huge muscles, and a thick beard.
