《Pandora: A New Beginning》Chapter 3: The Elder

"Name." The system said with its monotonous voice.
"Rose Trinity" I replied.
"Would you like to randomize your race, class and life class?"
"No" I already had a class in mind with my strategy, if I randomized everything now it will ruin my plan.
"Please select your race, please keep in mind the race you choose will belong to a certain alignment and this alignment cannot be changed."
Evil Neutral Good Devil Dark Elf Wood Elf Demon Human Celestial Orc Gnome Fairy Blood Elf Dwarf Half-Elf
"Dark Elf" Although the media coverage on Pandora has been high, the actual information about the game released is extremely limited, one of the key points mentioned is that there are other ways to get attribute points.
"Please select your class, please note that you are not required to follow the recommended attributes."
Class Recommended Attributes Warrior Strength and Constitution Archer Dexterity and Agility Thief Strength, Dexterity and Agility Mage Intelligence and Dexterity
"Thief"
"Would you like to select your life class now or wait?"
"Wait." As I expected, you can still choose to wait and find an NPC to mentor you.
There are advantages of having NPCs mentor you, the rate at which you will gain life class exp will increase, as well as receiving advice and tips and finally the most important point, you can build relations with the NPCs, creating more opportunities to gain more hidden quests, which wouldn't be available normally.
"Congratulations, you have created your account."
"The game will be open in 25:43:57. Please come back when the timer has finished to play the game."
After I finished creating my character I exited my capsule, it had only taken me a couple of hours to finish creating my character, so I went downstairs and watched T.V. for the rest of the day.

When it came to midnight I headed off to bed, but unfortunately, I was very nervous unable to get to sleep, so I stayed awake looking at my ceiling, I set my alarm to wake me up 1 hour before launch and then closed my eyes, it still takes a while to do but eventually falling asleep.
...
I woke up the next morning and looked at the time, my alarm didn't go off so I woke up only 30 minutes before the launch of the game, I had a quick shower and got into some comfortable clothes and sat in the capsule.
While inside the capsule all I could see was a timer, so I slowly watched the timer decrease second by second.

"Welcome to Pandora."
It was very nostalgic, seeing the opening again, but this I had some extra knowledge about the game, for example, you can simply skip the intro by simply saying "skip." This piece of information wasn't found out until 4 months after the game launched which didn't provide anyone with an advantage, but that was because the 'first' title had already been taken, although this title wasn't anything special in the early game, it became an extremely great item for the late game, because this wasn't just any title, this title gave the user access to a 'God' quest which came in 5 parts.
"Skip."
"Are you sure you want to skip the opening to Pandora? After the opening is skipped it will not be viewable again."
"Yes."
After that was said the intro for Pandora was skipped and I landed in the middle of a village, the game had many villages like this all numbered from 1-100,000. The village which you land in is totally random so despite being the first person to log in I landed in Beginner Village 40,593.

After landing I walked to the village elder.
"Welcome traveller, because you are the first traveller to land in this world you are granted the title 'First'."
Title Obtained: 'First' 'First' - A title given to the first person to arrive in this world.
Exp gained + 2%
All Stats + 1
Could contain other uses, try asking around.
After receiving the title I checked my status window
Name: Rose Trinity Race: Dark Elf Level: 1 Class: Thief Life Class: N/A Health: 200 Mana: 100 Strength: 11 Constitution: 11 Agility: 11 Dexterity: 11 Intelligence: 11 Charisma: 11
"Thank you, Village Elder."
Relation with the village elder has increased by 1
"Village elder, you look tired, is there something I can do to help?"
"Recently there has been a lot of wolves attacking the villages on the outskirts of the village, can you prevent the wolves from attacking the villagers?"
E-rank Quest received:
Kill 10 wolves: 0/10
As I walked away from the village elder I saw more and more people starting to emerge in my village, without paying attention to it any longer I walked to the edge of the village where the wolves are located.

New Paris [a Modern-day LitRPG]
New Paris [OR] I reincarnated into the world of my favorite wuxia novel as an S ranker with unbalanced skills. [Volume 1] - Completed I was one of those people who only stood out in a crowd when their name was called. Then, I died. But instead of heaven, hell, or anything else, I found myself in the body of a young woman whom I did not recognise at first. You see, I had this novel I was obsessed with. The novel was a fairly popular wuxia that got a few sequels, and a handful of spinoffs. One of these spinoffs took place in Paris, where the main cast fought against a multi-millionaire villain. When I woke up after dying, I eventually realised that I was now the third daughter of this multi-millionaire end-game boss in a spin-off of a sequel of my favourite novel. Does this make any sense to you? Because it doesn't to me. But I guess I might as well make the most of it now. Just gotta stay away from some of the more unstable main characters and cut all ties with my 'family' to avoid certain death. [Volume 2] - Currently Airing It had not been a good idea to interfere with the characters of the original novel. Had I known it was going to cause a butterfly effect, I would have stayed in my lane and minded my business. Although, between the suspicious attacks I seem to constantly find myself in the center of, and my 'family' who is the living definition of the expression 'rich pricks', I’m not entirely sure my current predicament would have been avoidable. But maybe it isn't to be avoided; maybe I should embrace this opportunity that has been given to me and become the hero of this story? At least it's certain that I can't do worse than the original protagonist in terms of moral ambiguity; with immortality already in my pocket, and no other useful skills to account for. However, if I were to follow this path, I would have a lot to lose, including an upcoming promotion and my growing relationship with my crush. With power, glory and whatever else on one side, and my wellbeing and happiness on the other, even in this magical wuxia world, the choice is easy to make. CW: graphic descriptions of violence, swearing, implied child abuse, mention and graphic description of suicide
