Chapter 1304: Carmen’s Early Journey Part 1
Carmen admitted that when she first started the Divine World, she had been deceived quite badly about players. She didn’t anticipate being equally despicable and shameless in the real world.
And this perception was attributed to none other than the Reaver Guild. Their means and behavior disappointed her immensely.
Not to mention, the teammates she temporarily formed up with were also cowering in fear of the strong, which made her feel trapped everywhere.
In the real world, her identity was special, and so were the people around her.
Hence, it was common to see different types of people behaving in a hypocritical manner in her daily life.
To escape this kind of ridiculous lifestyle, she fled and tried to be independent.
It was only then that she came to realize that without her special identity, many people would express their real nefarious intent.
The most common ones were perverted men who wanted to ravage her. As if their inner desire wasn’t enough, some even went as far as drugging her wine.
Luckily, her alertness wasn’t low, and she made sure those who drugged her wine paid the ultimate price in prison till their death.
During those helpless days, she stumbled across news of the Divine World and decided to see if things would be different.
The result ended up being a disappointment. Had it not been for a mission she had undertaken earlier, and she was a stubborn one to do things till the end, she wouldn’t have gone to the Mercenary Association.
Who could have imagined that her stubbornness would lead her to encounter Xu Feng?
As Carmen kissed Xu Feng on the lips again, she recalled the past prior to their chance encounter.

RedEagle Town
"Ah, so this is the Divine World?" Carmen, a level 1 Summoner who had chosen her birthplace by random, got sent to RedEagle Town.
She glanced at her surroundings. She was startled by the immersive feel and the near-realistic movement in her body. She felt like she was truly a part of the Divine World.
Had it not been for the existence of the system, she would have really thought she was in the real world.
"Looking for one member to join the level grind!"
"We need a DPS, preferably someone from the Mage Class!"
"Level doesn’t matter much as long as you can listen well to instructions!"
Upon hearing a recruitment post, Carmen became interested. She was completely new to the VRMMORPG environment, so she thought it would be helpful to join a team.
’They wouldn’t be hypocritical, right?’ Carmen wondered silently.
She had escaped reality to avoid interacting with superficial and hypocritical people.
However, the Divine World’s advertisement was quite enticing.
[Sick of the people in your world?
Why not try to encounter new people in a parallel world?
Join the Divine World today and explore a new environment!]
Carmen was indeed sick of the people in her world, so she wanted to see if the Divine World would truly offer her a different experience.
There were only a handful of people she got along well with, but it didn’t feel like it was enough to fill the empty gap in her heart.
"Hi, can I join your team? I’m new to the Divine World, and my class is a Summoner." Carmen approached a group of people and inquired.
This group of people consisted of 1 woman and 2 men. They were planning on forming a four-person team and lacked a DPS class.
The woman was a cleric, and the 2 men were of the Warrior Class, Gun Knight, and Knight Lancer.
"Of course, you can." The woman was the first to respond. "I’m Joyce, and these two here are my eldest brothers, Mitchel and Benny."
"I’m Carmen." Carmen smiled lightly and greeted them. She also subtly noticed Mitchel and Benny were staring at her face quite intensely.
However, they didn’t get to stare for much longer when Joyce gave a sharp jab at their stomachs.
"Pay attention to your behavior. You’ve scared away so many people because of your behavior already!" Joyce hissed and warned her eldest brother to mind their actions.
"My brothers are perverted, but don’t be afraid. They only dared to look and not act on anything." She then explained to Carmen, confessing their plight and why they were struggling to find a DPS class. They were either scared away by her eldest brother’s perverted gaze or by their protection.
After all, some men did approach them but were leering at her with a lustful gaze.
One could truly say the situation was quite ironic.
Just like that, the team was formed, and they began grinding for the next few hours.
"Nice shot, Carmen!" Joyce exclaimed and cheered happily. "You have been hiding your skills well!"
"It’s nothing much," Carmen scratched her head shyly.
With the monster dead and a good amount of items being dropped, the team was about to begin the distribution process until another party disturbed them.
"Hoh, not bad for a Summoner. Why don’t you join our Reaver Guild?" A man approached them and suggested in a somewhat forceful manner.
"I’m Hundred Ghost, and this area is now deemed our Reaver Guild territory. As long as you join us, you can continue to grind, but the profit must be shared with our guild. Otherwise, you can forget about grinding levels or items."
"Reaver Guild, Hundred Ghost..." Carmen frowned a bit. She was displeased and dissatisfied with this arrogant person.
The Divine World had just been launched, and someone was already acting arrogantly to claim territory.
Who the hell does he think he is?
"Sorry, but I have no interest in joining your guild." Carmen coolly said.
Hundred Ghost’s eyes narrowed. "Do you all have the same thoughts as well?"
Carmen thought they would follow her, but to her dismay, they actually retreated.
"Nope, we don’t share the same thoughts." Benny shook his head and exclaimed.
Mitchel also agreed.
Only Joyce wanted to argue, but was silenced by her two eldest brothers as they promptly dragged her away.
’Haa so it’s the same here as well...’ Upon seeing their retreat, Carmen couldn’t help but feel nothing. It was as if she had anticipated this outcome already.
