While Gray and the others head off to an unknown location. They came across what looks like a base from a distance. Taking that opportunity to stay there so that they can regain stamina, Gray notices something off about the place. When stepping foot inside, a bunch of strangers stared at them like they were there prey. Looking nervous and trying to keep a calm face, Kastu touch Gray's shoulder and told him to "relax." After waking up and finally realizing there is nothing for him to be afraid of, they saw a bunch of kids with low hp. Rukia decided to shoot her arrows at them to regain HP, Rukia finally realized she was low on arrows. The rest realizing that their armour durability is low, they decided to go to a store and not only upgrade what they had before but to get the best item the store and there money could offer.
Walking around without a care of what will happen around them, Gray saw a fight going down and decided to join in with the crowd. Seeing two people fight one person, Gray wanted to get involved, but after realizing what happened before, Gray didn't want to rush in without thinking, so he decided to look at their hp and skills to see if he was good enough to fight them without his friends.
As the duel ended and the winners decided to take all the boy's items, Gray stepped in and bet all his items as long as they give back the items they took from the boy. Levy telling Gray if that would be a good idea because they're both level 10. Gray nodded and said, "I can handle them by myself, just watch me." With Levy smiling and supporting Gray to win like the rest of them, Gray stepped in feeling invincible.
When the duel started, Gray used the item he bought from the store called "smoke bomb". Gray realizing there is no way of him winning if he fights them at the same time, he decided to want to have a fight with them one on one. Splitting them up, Gray used death touch, which sent the first an opponent he fought flying back, doing a lot of damage on him. Whilst Gray used this chance to defeat him, the other guy appeared and used guard against Gray. Sending Gray back, also doing damage to him, Gray quickly tries to think of a plan, while in the heat of battle. The other guy using reflect to take in his friend's damage and use it against Gray, Gray decided to use teleport to dodge the attack and appear behind him using double slice. Not only did the player take in the damage Gray gave him, he also took in the damage he got rid of from his friend, due to the fact that he was too slow to pass it on to someone else.
Eliminated the first guy, Gray's teammates didn't look surprised or doubted his abilities and skills to win a two vs one. While the other guy swings his sword everywhere hoping to hit Gray. Gray used another item he got from the store called "paper bomb". Sticking five of the paper bombs on his head, he received extra damage from getting attacked in a fatal spot, which took off all his health and gave Gray the victory. Bringing Gray low with HP because the guy went in front of him with a head-on explosion, Gray nearly ended the fight with a draw. Rukia shooting Gray with an arrow healing him, the crowd form around Gray talking about how cool he was during the fight.
Leveling up to level 12, Gray helped the person out by giving back his stuff. The boy's name was "luke" and he was a level 6 on the game from the data Kastu got from completing the tutorial. When asked what is this place, the boy responded by saying " This place just randomly spawn naturally, not only those it has a lot AI, soldiers, and defence in this place, it also has a low chance of players trying to kill in the home base area because you're allowed to do pvp in here. The home base area was said to be the place to level up the quickest way possible, due to the number of high-level monsters that appears at night time." Knowing all the information about the place, Gray and the rest decided to stay here for a while, until they had enough money to make their own base.
"Shall we strike now?" A mysterious girl said while standing on top of the great wall surrounding the home base.
