The World of Masks

"Thank you for all your help."

"No, it's my job, too. We wish you a safe journey."

In front of the temple, Jack shakes hands with Jorba. Jack decided to come back three days later for some time to produce his identity card, thanking Jorba for escorting him to the temple. Even if the opponent is an NPC, NPCs need help to solve the game as long as it is a realistic game. Those are good NPCs, too. I'm not sure yet, but the attitude so far was good enough for the NPC.

Jack comes out of the temple under Jorba's escort and takes a deep breath after extending his arms. In the real world, fresh air, which has to go away, sits deep in the lungs. As I took a deep breath, Jin looked up at the sky. In a sense, you have taken a real first step in this game.

'No. Do you really need an ID card to begin with?'

Of course not. Jinsuk takes another deep breath of fresh air. Then I frowned severely. I tried to ignore it, but the smell of my tail was too annoying.

'I need to buy some clothes first.'

Looking at the bloodstained clothes, Jack grimaces. There was a scent of grass coming up, similar to that of Messu or Chungcheong.

'That NPC is really nice.'

Jack smiled helplessly and remembered Jorba, who described the world to him with great care. With such a realistic game, ordinary NPCs are more likely to smell themselves and curse. No, I'm sure. However, Jorba did not show any sign of it. Seeing that there was no other color to the smell that might make the impression frown on him, he was either moronic or considerate. One of the two. But I don't think you have a bad sense of smell. Even though he smelled it, he did not smell the awful odor. This means that his concern is deeply embedded in his bones.

'You can't be sure you don't have a real sense of smell.'

Jack, who kicked him out of his senseless mind, began walking to the commercial district that Jorba had taught him.

As he walked, Jack had to be looked at by people. It was mostly a gaze of curiosity and a bit of disgust. Curiosity will probably be sent because he realizes that he is a traveler by the mask he is wearing, and the disgusted gaze will be sent by the tail of his clothes.

'Maybe there's a public bathhouse here.'

The era was like the Middle Ages, but it could have been anything other than the reality. Besides, there was a public bathhouse in Rome. But even in Rome, bathhouses were as likely to be used here as those with status. More than anything else.

'How do you know it's a bathhouse?'

It's not like it's a bathhouse or a hot spring sign to make the game so complete. Honestly, I'd wake up if I had a sign like that.

While thinking such trivial thoughts, Jack suddenly arrived in the commercial district of the city. Eventually, Jack postponed finding the bathhouse. I wish I could, but I didn't intend to look for anything out of the ordinary. First of all, my clothes were in a hurry. It was a commercial area on the outskirts of the city, so it was also an unpaved road. Several people and carts were passing by on the crumbling mud floor. Jack turns his head hard to find the clothing store. There were several clothing stores, but I couldn't see where I was selling my ready-to-wear. Rather than selling ready-to-wear, the culture of buying cloth and making it at home seemed like the state. Luckily, when Jack felt embarrassed that he didn't really have a clothing store, there was a place in his eyes that he thought was a clothing store. Jack lets out a sigh of relief and goes inside the store.

Jack leaves the store satisfied. His appearance had changed greatly. The clothes that were covered with bloodstained shells and the smell of sweat was pressing down on them, and there was a strange odor that could not be said. Instead, he was wearing a long white armband cotton, puffy brown leather trousers, and also brown leather shoes. Unusual clothes, but Jack was satisfied in his own way.

In the Middle Ages, you could wear a lot of fancy clothes with money. In fact, there were quite a lot of clothes that I liked in the ready-to-wear store that I went into now. According to the shop owner, there are a lot of tourists in the clothing store, so there were quite a few clothes to suit the traveler's mood. Even though it's expensive. But Jack didn't want to waste money on it yet. Now all I needed was a few clothes that were easy to move. Moreover, most of the clothes you will wear will be armor. I didn't even have to buy fancy clothes. I don't know if I'll ever be able to rest in this game powerlessly or powerfully.

That way, Jack wears the hood he was holding. In this game, it is better to be cautious because the mask, which is the player's token, becomes a target. Jack presses the hood deeply, takes off his mask and tucks it into the bracelet. He looks up at the sky from afar, making sure his face is invisible. The sun was slowly descending over the wall, putting red light through it as if it had all been done today. As it turns out, there are no streetlights in this city. Jack hastens to his feet before it completely darkens. Most people have already traveled back and forth to their homes before dark, including Jack. Jack leaves the commercial district and walks to the outskirts of the city. As time went by, the streets disappeared. And the houses around them began to grow more humble as they fell into the outskirts of the castle. It didn't seem like a slum in America, but it seemed like a poor neighborhood. After a long time in this alley, Jack was barely able to find his destination.

It was a little two-story house. The trail of time seemed to have settled down, but it wasn't too bad. The traces of time that remained on the wooden planks covering the doors and windows were rather old-fashioned. If the NPCs in the game or the real medievals had seen it, it would have been a bad house, but it was cool enough for Jack who was used to the concrete forest in reality.

Jack noticed the items in his bracelet in the form of a window. Then he touched a key and held it in his hand. It was the key that was taken from the fearless robbers who attacked you.

Holding the key, Jack looks at the house, which is a kind of loot. Now this is his home. In reality, it was the first house that my parents left me, even though it was a game with Jack living in the charter house. Even though the ultimate goal of life is to buy your own house, Korea's greed for owning their own house is quite different. Jack was also as sorry as he was Korean. It's a tax issue, but you can ask Jorba three days later when she receives her ID card.

Without hesitation, Jack sticks the key in and opens the door.
