"Hmm, I don't know how much DP I can earn after defeating a single enemy or by sleeping. I guess only then I can find out if this skill is broken or not," Michael mumbled as he closed it. He didn't have any DP to use it anyway.

"Should I play the game or not?" he mumbled as if deep in thought.

At SA Headquarters

Lim Cheolho, one of the 33 senior executives behind the creation of Satisfy, looked at Michael contemplating on the screen. "Their personality is really the same... no wonder he got that class," he muttered, his lips curling into a slight smile as he watched Michael still hesitating on whether to play the game or not just because of getting this class.

"Who would have thought there would be someone who'd use the time dilation feature of the game just to extend their sleep time?" said one team leader.

Another one grumbled, "That class is clearly great, yet it might get wasted on him." He was not pleased with Michael receiving the class, thinking it would be a waste in his hands.

"Oh, he finally came to a conclusion," said another researcher, while others looked at Michael with bated breath, wondering if he would play the game and let the class to shine or let it rot by continue to sleep.

"Well, I guess even God is telling me to stop being lazy," Michael mumbled as he cracked his neck. "Let's see how great this class is."

He dashed excitedly out of the house and looked at the Training Grounds section. The training grounds were where the very first quest was issued.

[ Tutorial Quest ]

Objective: Go to any training area and complete the tutorial there.

Reward: Based on user performance.

Time Limit: None.

It was the quest that automatically appeared after logging into the game, but it had been neglected for over two years.

Seeing him going to complete the tutorial everyone at S.A. celebrated too.

After some time, Michael reached the Tutorial Area, where an NPC was giving quests to everyone.

"Are you here to get trained?" the NPC asked Michael.

"Okay then, you've been assigned to Rookie Team 7," he added, passing Michael a badge. "You can gather with your team and get one month of free training," he explained before adding, "Or, you can also learn the basics and leave within a day."

Michael accepted the quest and chose the one-month training option, as it provided better rewards.

"Great. One must need time to fully understand the basics. I'm glad you didn't rush it like the others," the NPC said with a small smile. Michael simply nodded in response.

"Not so talkative, huh? Well, we'll see how you feel later," the NPC said with a smirk, a hint of mischief in his expression.

Michael was then led to the Training Area, and after 10 days...

"Haha, you're great! I've never seen talent like yours," said Sir Phoenix as he praised Michael heavily. He was a Knight of the North, known as the Strongest Knight in the region.

"It's a pity that there's not much I can teach you, but how about this? Join My knights—I can personally pass down my skills to you," he offered.

Michael looked at him and then nodded. "It would be my honor," he said.

Phoenix laughed heartily. "Ahaha! Great lad!"

"For now, you're an Apprentice Knight," he added.

[ Title Acquired Apprentice Knight ]

[ Effect : All stats + 10 , +10% defense and Attack power ]

"Umm, can I also go and roam the world?" Michael asked.

Phoenix paused for a moment. "I think it's a great idea. Talent like yours shouldn't be cooped up in a single area," he said.

"You can, but you'll have to finish learning from me first," he added.

Michael nodded in agreement.

"Okay then, tomorrow morning, come meet me," said Sir Phoenix before leaving.

Michael exhaled as he stretched. Ten days of training had finally ended.

"Hmm, the rewards are great," Michael mumbled as he walked to the Knight Registration Area and showed the badge Sir Phoenix had given him.

Michael, without wasting any time, learned the skills, equipped the set and checked his beginner set, swapping it for the Knight Set.

"Hmm, it's somewhat heavy," he mumbled as he walked around, getting used to it.

"Well, it's good enough," he said with a shrug, adjusting his stance. He then unsheathed his sword and swung it a few times, testing its weight and balance.

"now, time to level up" He mumbled as he began to walk towards the Goblin area.
