The Night Sun

Time passed.

Sword of Love received a notification first.

His face alread smug.

Lady Lam immediately asked.

"So? Bark. What did you get?"

The three of them were close enough to speak this way. Although Hana was still a bit taken aback as Lady Lam's gentle big sister image didn't exist when she was with Sword of Love and No One.

"Delicious. Very delicious."

Sword of Love chuckled and shared it in the Guild chat.

✧【Making Love with the Sword shared 『 Job Change Invitation: ??? 』】✧

W-what!?

The whole guild was in an uproar.

✧【AnNhauNhuKhi055: Damn. 】✧

✧【LearnToPlayNotToLearn: OMG. 】✧

✧【An Nhiên: 200k final offer. 】✧

✧【KingOfMid: That's overpriced. 50k. 】✧

✧【Hao Hao Noodle: F2P. Not buying. 】✧

✧【Making Love with the Sword: Get lost. 】

Lady Lam was a bit surprised.

In this job change feature, classes that are not yet known—meaning they have not been mentioned in the storyline or obtained by any player—will be displayed as "???."

This class has not been updated online. That means Sword of Love is one of the first to change to this class.

Online news updates very quickly.

There is a website called NTDatabase. Players can link their accounts to this site, allowing it to collect player data and then share information.

The number of connected users has reached billions globally.

The entire guild has already connected.

Now, if Sword of Love changes class, it will be updated immediately.

Everyone was still buzzing about the job change invitation of Sword of Love when another shared notification appeared.

✧【No 11 shared 『 Job Change Invitation: ??? 』】✧

✧【Making Love with the Sword: Congratulations to No One, Boss, for escaping the miserable Bard life. Looking forward to a lucky red envelope.】✧

✧【AnNhauNhuKhi055: Congratulations to No One, Boss, for escaping the miserable Bard life. Looking forward to a lucky red envelope.】✧

✧【No 11 just handed out a 『100 silver red envelope』】✧

✧【Mì Hảu Hảu: Cheapskate.】✧

✧【No 11: Bye.】✧

Lady Lam looked over at No One, who had just proudly shared his job change invitation. She smiled.

"Double Happiness, Double Happiness."

( The word used alot in wedding )

"I'm not gay," Sword of Love immediately responded.

No One found it amusing. Chatting in the guild and seeing everyone join in was always a pleasure.

"I'll go change my class first; see you both shortly."

"Let's see," Sword of Love replied.

"Alright, finish quickly so we can prepare for tomorrow's raid."

.

At DMG company, the developer of First World.

"Humiliating, isn't it?"

A clip of No One shouting in the trial was being shown.A young guy was gleefully spinning around in his chair.

"I told you to keep the difficulty high, now look, the players are complaining."

"Get lost. We’re still worried that the players won’t make it through the next update."

"If they can't make it, they can't make it. Blame it on their lack of skill."

"Tofu, let me remind you once more. The number of players is decreasing! If this company goes bankrupt, can you take responsibility?"

"Then they can just turn on their phones and download those trashy games! If a game isn't challenging, is it even a game? It's just an illusion! Leveling up, fighting monsters, then leveling up and fighting more monsters!? If they want to imagine they’re strong, they fight weaker opponents. To truly know their strength, they defeat stronger foes!"

Director Minh was exhausted watching the two argue.

The person advocating for an easier game was Snow Vixen, responsible for managing events and player engagement.

The person advocating for a harder game was Tao Tao, also known as Tofu, who managed the game's difficulty design.

"That’s enough, you two. Have you finished preparing the announcement for the upcoming roadmap?"

"Yes, it's ready. We plan to send it out tonight." Snow Vixen promptly returned to her work demeanor and responded to the director.

"Alright."

✧【Congratulations to player Hang Hang on successfully changing classes, officially becoming a Wudang Flying Blade !】✧【Congratulations to player A Path of Blossoms on successfully changing classes, now becoming a Paladin of the Holy Nation!】✧

✧【Congratulations to player Little Tiger on successfully changing classes, now becoming a Shaolin Monk!】✧

A series of player job change announcements flooded the system chat channel.

No One was leaving the arena, browsing through the game news as he walked.

There was a new announcement on the homepage.

【A Letter from the Development Team of First World】

Skimming through, it mostly discussed the future updates of First World.

The updates for First World were always... "interesting."

In most games, an update would allow players to instantly engage with new content.

With First World, updates were presented as ongoing events occurring within the game world.

For instance, the current job changes were introduced with the discovery of a prophecy about a great catastrophe found in an ancient tomb.

Upon learning of the prophecy, the factions were thrown into chaos, with many forces beginning to recruit, preparing for the impending disaster.

As a result, even the usually reserved factions started organizing grand examinations to seek out talent.

The classes in the game belong to specific factions. For example, Priests mostly belong to the Holy Nation, Berserkers to the northern barbarians, and Sword Cultivators to the sects in the Extreme East.

According to the letter from the development team, many events are about to unfold in the game.And regarding the difficulty in the game, it has been adjusted to be the most suitable.

Content that affects players' leveling progress will be made easier. Content that affects the storyline will retain its difficulty.

Dungeons from older updates become significantly weaker after new updates. New dungeons will not have their difficulty reduced until they are "conquered" — meaning the first person completes the dungeon.

The storyline that First World talks about... It's somewhat vague.

Because this game doesn't have a main storyline.

Each player is an individual in the game with different roles and jobs depending on what they want. They take on the identity of people from other lands who come seeking work.

There's no universal story where everyone is "the chosen one" here.

However, the game design team was once asked about the "main storyline" of the game.

They replied, "The main storyline hasn't begun. We're still waiting for players to unlock it."

Because of this statement, many players returned to the first cities or towns where they appeared to search for clues.

Thinking they might have missed an NPC or someone who unlocks the main storyline.

But it was pointless.

Everyone appeared at different locations on the map. An NPC unlocking the main storyline is impossible.

Yet everyone in the game is waiting to see what it is.

No One passed through a teleport gate at Xiyu Square.The teleportation took him to an incredibly bustling and vast city.

Above was a star-filled night sky, eternally without sunlight.

Blue lights illuminated the city everywhere. The city had a spiral architecture converging towards a large, vibrant circle of blue flames.

In the center of that ring of fire stood an NPC with a red title.

【Lv.300 Immortal Blade】

【Fate of the World】

She was wearing a pitch-black conical hat, the material of which was unknown.

A thin black cloth veiled her beautiful face. A black outfit covered her skin entirely.

Yet despite the name Immortal Blade, she carried no sword at all.

This place was the City of Azure Flames.

The central teleportation hub of the entire First World.

Teleport gates from all over the map transported everyone to this location.

And from here, one could find gates to their desired destinations.

It was always crowded with players here, overwhelming the NPCs.

Hence, it was affectionately given the nickname by players: "Market City."

Many people set up stalls to sell goods here. Items from all corners of the First World gathered in this place.And the NPC within that ring of fire is a mystery that everyone is curious about. Some even suspect she might be the key to unlocking the Main Storyline.

The City of Azure Flames was introduced to all players very early on. Around level 5, nearly everyone would visit this place.

It's the only place that meets the condition of being experienced by all players.

And this NPC is deliberately placed at the center of the City of Azure Flames.

It's too conspicuous. It's like an invitation.

However, in the past year, no one has been able to speak with that NPC.

The ring of fire surrounding the Immortal Blade almost instantly kills anyone who steps into it.

Crossing the ring of fire is nearly impossible.

Even Mages with flying spells cannot pass through it. The flames seem to reach the heavens. No matter how high you fly, they will burn you.

No One has also tried many times to cross through the ring of fire, only to die a needless death before those flames.

He even tried singing while running as fast as he could. But to traverse the entire fiery path, it would take at least 500 meters.

No matter the method used, one cannot get through it in time before dying.

He once dreamed that he would be the first person to speak to that NPC, making history in the First World.

Sighing, No One continued on his way.Arriving at a stone pedestal with fierce blue flames on top.

This is how you use the Job Change letter.

In the City of Azure Flames, burn the letter on this stone pedestal.

It will transport the person who burns it to the territory of their class faction.

The blue flames immediately catch fire, consuming it all.
