"Wow, what a crazy creature."
A line of these words suddenly escaped from Rudy's lips after seeing the status of the Minotaur he had summoned from the Minotaur's Summon Horn.

After seeing the statue of the Minotaur that he summoned from the item drop he got in the Lafos cave, Rudy couldn't help but be dumbfounded while holding his head in disbelief at the status. After all, another level two monster was impossible to defeat this summoned beast.
As the master of the summoned creature, every player can see the status of the summoned monster, as well as Rudy who is not a player with the Summoner Class Job, Rudy can summon this Minotaur through the Minotaur's Summon Horn at will.
'The limit is one hour per day, huh?'
Rudy muttered that in his heart after reading the explanation for using the Minotaur's Summon Horn. He can eliminate and summon this Minotaur at will, but there is a limit that the summoned creature can only survive in this world for one hour per day.
This has become a natural thing considering the Pet system in Axie Online also has a time limit to survive in this world. When the time is up, the Pet will disappear and return to the Pet Realm to rest until the next day.
"Master, may I ask for a name?"
"Name? For what?"
"To make it easier for master to summon me in the future."
Hearing the request from the Minotaur, Rudy nodded his chin and closed his eyes concentrating trying to find a good name. He's not very good at naming things, but at least he can still give names to humans like himself.
"What if it's a Buller? A strong and hardy animal just like your status."
"Then from now on, I'll be called Buller."
While saying those few words, Buller snorted out loud breaths from his two nostrils which had an iron circle pierced in the middle. He seemed to like the name.
After naming Buller, Rudy told him to return to his natural environment in order to save the time limit for using it per day and walk back to the refugee area of Livetuna City. He could see the remaining usage time limit on the Item Buller Summon Horn which had changed its name and had only 45 minutes remaining today.
Arriving at the refugee camp, Rudy immediately reported to the Quest Center receptionist and received an appropriate reward of 1,200 Byl. Well, for him who was an abnormal player among players of his level, Rudy wouldn't have much trouble fighting sixty Goblins for today.
"Excuse me in advance, do you know where the Class Registration refuge is?"
"Class Registration? As far as I remember all the members and employees have died while fighting the onslaught of the Goblins."
Knowing that Rudy's shoulders slumped, indicating that he was very disappointed. Of course, just a moment ago he was notified by the system that he could take a Special-Class Job Class at Class Registration, how could he not be disappointed by that?
Disappointed, Rudy walked back through the refugee area which is currently inhabited by hundreds of residents of Livetuna City. He took the free bowl of soup and crusty bread provided for the refugees and ate them in front of a huge bonfire made by the refugees.
Although he actually had a lot of money and could eat good food in the town's restaurants that were still open, he wanted to occasionally sample the food for war refugees during the medieval wars. After all, the atmosphere of the world of Axie Online is very nuanced like the old European medieval era.
Axie Online has a specific set of programs that can mimic the taste, aroma, texture, structure, and distinctive richness of food in the real world. Solid Gear itself has features that support the program so that players can taste the delicious food of any country available in the game without having to travel the world.
A really great feature, right?
"Yuck, I don't feel. It's tasteless."
Having just tasted a spoonful of soup from his bowl, Rudy showed his distaste for this food. He put the bowl of soup on the ground and began to think 'how did the ancients eat something so tasteless like this?' etc.
Well, in the Middle Ages spices were quite difficult to find in various European countries, it is natural that most foods at that time were very tasteless. People inevitably have to eat it in order to survive.
"Hey, want some salt?"
Just as Rudy was about to devour his crusty bread, a familiar bidding voice sounded in his ear. It was Lyra offering a small bottle of salt from behind her. Of course, Rudy happily accepted the small bottle in his hand and took out the contents in his soup bowl which he had taken again.
"Huaah, more delicious! Salt is indeed one of the greatest inventions of mankind!"
Rudy returned cheerfully when he felt the delicious taste of the soup sprinkled with salt. Salt is indeed one of the greatest discoveries in the world, it cannot be denied. What if salt is not found? What will happen to the world's culinary specialties? Bland and tasteless, like ordinary mineral water.
"Thanks, Lyra. You helped me again."
"No problem."
Rudy then returned the bottle of salt to Lyra when he felt it was enough to sprinkle on top of his bland crusty bread. Bread usually uses sugar, but does anyone have sugar today? There is no.
While eating, Rudy glanced at Lyra and saw her sober identity through focused eyes.
- - - -
Name: Lyra (Night Assassin)
Level: 89
Race: High Human
- - - -
High Humans are one of the races that cannot be selected through avatar creation when entering Axie Online. So how did Lyra get this race? The answer is the Evolution system.
Like other RPG games, Axie Online also adheres to the Evolution system which can improve something from a low place to a higher place.
Through this system, one could evolve one's race to something higher and could strengthen the status of the owner. With Evolution, the player can transcend certain boundaries of the race he chose from the start of playing Axie Online and strengthen themselves to be stronger than before.
The Evolution system in Axie Online itself is one of the unsolved mysteries of how to get it. Even though many professional players have done Evolution, they are still confused about how and what are the requirements to be able to evolve into a race that is higher than the original race.
"Lyra, thanks for earlier."
"For?"
"Tell me where Ten's shop is right next to those big buildings."
"Oh, you were that player back then? To think we'd meet again in this place."
"Yeah, really unexpected."
The two of them started chatting like the other players. Despite their different gender, job class, ability, level, statuses, and races, they still share stories and experiences with each other.
Even though she looks quiet, actually Lyra is a person who is quite happy to talk when she meets people she already knows. Although the two only knew each other briefly, for some reason there was a miracle that strengthened their relationship.
