…

Reign and the others were carefully reading the change log, other than the 4 main changes there were more, mostly concerning the behavior of some monsters and the ways they will differ from now on.

"So it seems there will be less small groups of low level enemies now, even though it doesn\'t really matter much for us other people that are still low levels will find it harder to level up now, including the students and professors from our university, damn it, it wasn\'t enough that Earth changed into this hellhole, they\'re making it even harder to survive now!" Reign grit his teeth while looking at the notification, a wooden stick he was playing around with got snapped in half by his grip.

"This situation follows the rules of the system, the only thing it cares is for the strong and talented to survive, the weak and the cowards will simply die off." Wolf says with a serious expression on his face, he wasn\'t really worried about other people, in his opinion the only ones that he cares about are his party members and his family, everyone in the party is are strong and will definitely be able to rise to the top of the world with enough time, his family on the other hand are all like him, they should have no problems surviving, and each one will definitely be similar to him right now.

"Hey look at this part!" Shadow excitedly runs up to Reign and shows him what he saw.

- The Central Hub building will be soon available to everyone in the safe zones, players can communicate with each other on the forums and even send private messages to each other by paying a fee.

"We can find out the situation in New York this way, even get in contact with aunt or uncle if we\'re lucky enough." Reigns eyes widened after seeing this, after his parents death the only people he still cared about were Lee, Lee\'s family and his uncle, finding out their whereabouts and current state was something he was always worrying about, now with the new building they finally have a chance to do so.

"Yes, we just need to post on the forum and maybe they will see it, I hope they\'re alright, oh god I hope so." Shadows sentence starts with huge excitement but near the end his voice gets very low and his eyes get watery.

Reign takes a look at his friend and puts his arm on his shoulder, trying to comfort him. "They\'ll be alright, I\'m sure of that, you know those two the best, there\'s no way uncle would die from fighting any low level monster, even barehanded he could probably break the skulls of a group with ease."

"You\'re right, dads definitely alright, and mom is probably there with him, I just hope they will see our message, or even post one themselves." Shadow wipes his eyes and smiles at Reign.

"Guys, sorry to break you up now but we should probably hurry and go back, the sun is slowly setting and god knows what situation we will find ourselves then." Tank gets near the two and tells them with a concerned look, although they went hunting at night before it was always dangerous, with the new changes who knows if they would come face to face with a group of high level monsters or not.

"You\'re right Tank, we should get back, we\'ll have enough time for everything when we get back at the castle." Reign stands up and takes a look around, everyone was ready to go back so he slowly walks towards their destination.

One hour later they could see the huge castle walls in front of them, getting to the gate they patiently wait as it slowly opens.

"Seems like you guys made good use of the last day of the tutorial phrase huh, well done, you might want to rest a bit before going and getting a class, the opportunity won\'t go anywhere." Jack greets them inside and gives them advice. "Just a heads up though, everyone will get different choices depending on how you fought until know, your abilities and professions play a part as well, so don\'t get surprised if some of you get multiple options while some only get one."

"Wait what, so you\'re telling me if I want to be a mage I can\'t, because I used knives until now?" Shadow exclaims as soon as Jack is finished with his words, Jack in turn shakes his head and answers.

"Didn\'t you hear what I said, abilities and professions play a part too, so if someone has a talent for being a mage but only used meele weapons will now, well he can still get that option, and don\'t worry to much, you will have opportunities to mold your class to your liking as you level up more, class advancements will give you more specialized options too."

"I see, thank you for the information vice-captain." Beast gives a small bow after hearing what Jack said, he knew this wasn\'t information that everyone knows, it was just Jack giving them some benefits after seeing their talents.

"It\'s alright, now go, get a good rest and go to the class temple tomorrow, I\'ll be there to see you off and check you out when you finish." Jack simply turns around and waves at them while going away.

"Well, you heard the man." Wolf shrugs his shoulders as he goes towards the castle to rest, everyone soon follows suit.

As soon as he came in his room Reign immediately lied down to rest and do some thinking, todays battles were hard fought but luckily for them, they finished the dungeon without any serious injuries and were thus able to immediately come back here.

"Picking a class, I wonder what options I will get." Reign slowly closes his eyes while thinking that, whatever happens he will just choose the one that he thinks suits him best and that\'s that.

Tomorrow morning they all got together and went down to the dining area to have breakfast before they go to pick their classes, they were all sitting at the same table, Greenie included. People around them were glancing at them from time to time but nobody took the initiative to talk with them or get close, it was expected after all, everyone was scared and full of concern about the fights they will have to get into outside the castle walls and there were they, going out every single day to fight and become stronger, in the minds of many they were just a punch of crazy people.

"It\'s already been a couple of days and people still have the same mindset huh, well either they will learn and become more like us or they will die outside." Wolf uses a handkerchief to wipe his mouth after finishing his meal, feeling the gazes of all the people around them he said without trying to be quiet. Some of the nearest people heard him and couldn\'t help but have a terrified expression on their face, they knew he was right, they will either fight monsters and become stronger, earning enough to stay in the castle, or they will simply end up as a meal.

Going outside everyone slowly walked towards a building that resembled a church, there was no door on it, darkness was all you could see inside of it. Getting to the building everyone looks at each other before nodding and stepping inside.

Flash

The second Reign got inside he saw a flash or bright light, following that he felt his body being moved and thus he opened his eyes again. He could still see Shadow and the others, they were all beside one another, the space around them was twisting and turning, before finally stabilizing and letting them all see where they were now.

It was a huge hall, the columns being a full 30 meters long, the walls and the surroundings all had strange carvings on them, making the whole place seem incredibly magical and ethereal.

From behind one pillar a couple of people emerged, they walk towards them and stop some 2 meters from them, checking them out they could suddenly see words floating about them, these people were the ones they had to get a class from, they were the class trainers.
