Village of Exiles
Like always, today Lee Hyun woke up early and proceeded to doing his usual chores.
First he visited the Dark Gamers Union website and started reading latest messages.
As Choi Junghoon said, the website had plenty of information about quests, dungeons, crafting skills or even trading routes. And of course, as it was a website for Dark Gamers, most of information was about items.
Hyun Lee had ‘C’ access level and was able to view corresponding entries.
“Nothing special today too.”
He was looking for any mentions of unique items! And even though Lee Hyun had just ‘C’ access level, sometimes he was stumbling upon some interesting bits of information. Usually those were contributed by other players with the same access level, they were telling about their adventures, secret quests and rewards for them. Such messages were quickly becoming popular and getting moved to sections he couldn’t access to.
Lee Hyun was trying to catch them before that happened.
About 3-4 such messages a day appeared on the website. And if you carefuly watch it, you can read them before they are moved.
However today he just wasted time again.
‘Whatever. Anyway, i’m almost out of points.’
From the account used by Lee Hyun every day a few of points were deducted. It happened every time he was reading a message. That way Dark Gamers Union was forcing members to post useful messages to earn points, used to view other information.
Hyun got up from the chair and went down to the hall. There he has put on a light jacket, took a basket and went out of house.
Every morning after exersises and browsing news on the internet he was going to the market to get some cheap food.
“Good morning.”
“Oh, young man, you’re early today. I’ve got some fresh cutlass fish today. I’ll sell it to you cheap.”
“Thanks.”
Hyun was coming to the market every day so it was natural that all the salesmen knew him very well.
‘Picky bastard!’
‘Damn that greedy guy!’
Even when buying a single fish, Hyun was very demanding. He was always asking where it was caught, checking how fresh it is, examining eyes and mouth. He was noticing every little thing, even the way the hook was removed.
Salesmen on the market were used to customers with no knowledge of fish’s freshness. However Lee Hyun was well aware of those matters and never hesistated to haggle. He knew all the prices very well and trying to sell him something for more than its price was the gravest possible mistake!
Also Hyun was never searching for cheap food. Every morning he was cooking for his little sister so he was buying only the best of the best.
That kind of ‘infamy’ [reputation?] allowed him to buy best food at reasonable prices without having to bargain.
Using the best ingredients he brought from market he made cutlass fish stew with soy sauce for his sister.
“Thanks, brother. Everything was very tasty as always. I’m off to school!”
“Okay, have a safe trip.”
Once his sister left to school it was time Hyun devoted to himself.

Lee hayan was eagerly preparing for ‘Korea’ university entrance exams and was gathering all available information. She was surprised to learn from university website, that there were many ways to get accepted to it. But one particularly attracted her attention, the one for professional gamers.
Video games have become an important part of our life and culture, the amount of people, playing games regularly constantly increases.
After virtual reality came to our lives and the revolutionary Royal Road appeared our university opened a faculty, devoted to video games. There we study entire history of video game industry, from the very beginning to virtual reality.
Conditions to apply:
Records on awards, related to videogames.
School diploma.
After provided information is checked, you will be interviewed by one of the future professors, that will check the applicant’s knowledge and make the final decision.
Virtual reality was giving people chance to live their dream.
There were no people with disabilities and everyone was able to enjoy their adventures to the fullest.
After the release of Royal Road the number of travel agencies and consequently number of corresponding faculties of tourism and transportation decreased. But in their place faculties associated with videogames appeared.
Lee Hayan knew what exactly helped their family out of poverty. Money for selling her brother’s game character.
“Hyun doesn’t have any awards, but he has records about the sale of his character, maybe that will do?”
Though the sale records weren’t some kind of gaming award, they still signified an achievement and could serve as a good argument.
Especially since Hyun had great understanding of the subject. During his year of getting ready for Royal Road Hyun studied all the available works on virtual reality.
He probably knew more about virtual reality than any student of gaming faculty.
“It might work.”
Lee Hayan used her savings to buy official application papers and filled them herself on behalf of Lee Hyun!
