3 days later…
[Notification: The requirements to enter the first dungeon have been met, do you want to proceed with the teleporting process?]
Velten was laying on his bed, half-asleep and feeling tired when he heard the system talking. "What do you want early in the morning, you've already notified me about this yesterday.
Velten yawned as he slowly stood up and walked out of the room while rubbing his chest. He headed downstairs with teary eyes and entered the bath and sat in the water with his mind giving him a "go back to sleep, you idiot" vibes. He was staring at the wall without any reason, with eating breakfast as the only thing in his mind.
After a while, Velten finally got out of the bathroom and went to the kitchen to eat breakfast. Velten took a seat and started eating with his eyes half-closed and a tired expression on his face. Taking a bath didn't help him wake up since he spent the night trying to defeat a dark souls boss (That shit is hella hard tbh).
"Umm, mom? … Is big brother really ok?" a girl with brown long hair and purple eyes whispered into Velten's mom's ear.
"Don't worry Mary" the mom replied with a smile on her face. "He probably spent the whole night playing games again and woke early in the morning… again"
"I know but… he looks more dead on the inside than ever before". Marry was worried about her brother who looked like a dead fish sitting on a chair and drinking coffee milk.
"Is that so?" the mom said and looked at Velten with her hand on her chick. Velten looked back at them confused. His brain wasn't functioning, so he stared at them for a moment and went back to staring at the coffee milk he was drinking.
"Yeah, he is alright, don't worry"
"Ah… ok…" Mary didn't seem convinced by that although she saw her brother in this condition many times before. She was worried about him being sick, but she couldn't do anything about it.
Mary then remembered something so she started talking to the brain-dead Velten "You've been on everyone's lips in the academy since the day your school closed, what happened?"
"Is that so?" Velten lifted his head and looked at her in confusion "I just cleared an orcs' raid, didn't mom tell you already?"
"All by yourself?" Mary asked with a slight surprise on her face.
"Yes…"
"So the rumors were true, after all…" Mary said while rubbing her chin. She then stood up, grabbed her bag, and said, "I must get going now so that I won't be late to the academy"
"Oh, you are leaving already?" her mom asked with a sad look on her face.
"Yeah, I have to go since I could only leave for 2 days to check on my brother" Mary replied. She then kissed her mom on the forehead and said "but I'll be back when the next opportunity comes"
She then turned towards Velten and said "and you should fix your sleep, you are ruining your health like that"
Velten giggled a little bit and said "Yeah sure, I'll try it"
Mary knew Velten was just making fun of her for being so worried about him, but she just smiled and said while heading outside "I'll be going now"
"Take care of yourself" Velten and his mom said smiling while waving their hands.

After Velten finished, his mind was back to work again, so he decided to go and do his daily quest. Velten started running to warm up, and as he was running, he heard someone yelling in a loud voice, so he stopped and went to check it.
As Velten got near the place, the conversation became clearer.
"I told you before, I'm not going to sell you my beloved workplace, so go back now" An old man with light skin and a black beard was yelling at a young man that was wearing light armor.
"Just think about it again, old man Elvin" the young man begged Elvin nervously, trying to convince him in every way he can. "Our guild master is giving you a tempting offer"
"I'm flattered, but no means no" Elvin replied with arms crossed and a serious look on his face.
"Just what is going on here…?" Velten thought while watching them from a distance.
