When the couple heard what Yan had said, they fell silent.

Yan and Rae saw Aunt May walking towards them. Even after ten years, she looked like she did not even grow old. She was still as beautiful as ever. Both of them were now taller than her. Aunt May raised her hands and hold both of their cheeks.

"How time flies. Both of you were just little kids a while ago. Now, you're both an adult. I respect both your choices in life. You just returned home. How about you stay here for a couple of days? I missed both you. We also still have things to talk about you."

"Yes, Aunt May. We also have things to prepare for our journey too." Yan then looked around and asked "Where's Ash?"

"I'm here, Big Brother!"

A little boy suddenly jump on to Yan's embrace. He was Ash, son of Aunt May and Uncle Cain, Rae's younger brother. He's 6 years old this year.

"Have you been behave when we were gone?"

"Of course! I even feed the animals the back. Hehe."

"You love Big Brother so much that you forgot about me, your Big Sister? I'm jealous."

Ash climbed down of Yan and embraced Rae.

"Of course not. I love you both!". He kissed Rae's cheeks.

"I love you too!" Replied Rae with a kiss in his cheeks.

"Hehe."

Cain was happy of their return.

"Your mother and I prepared food. Let's go to the kitchen and eat."

While eating, Snow was in Ash's embraced. Ash and Snow had a deep friendship.

The sun had just risen when Yan woke up. Ever since they were young, Yan and Rae, woke this time of the day. But today, instead of the lovely face of Rae, it was Uncle Cain greeted Yan. Uncle Cain was standing in the doorway.

"Let's spar."

Yan was shocked by the sudden challenge but he didn't turn it down. He got out of bed and replied "Let me prepare first. I'm hungry too."

"Sure. Food is already on the table. I'll be two kilometres southwest of here. I'll wait for you there."

"Okay, Uncle."

Yan washed his face and ate his breakfast. After tuning his body at the right condition, he went to the direction where his Uncle Cain is. Snow also wanted to go with him but he was still at Ash's arms. He didn't want to move, afraid of waking him up.

Two kilometres is not far for Yan. He reached the location in a couple of minutes.

He saw Cain at his full-body light armour with both arms equipped with fist-weapons.

"Uncle, you look so cool! I guess your job, based on your fist-weapons and leather armour, is Rogue right? A high level at that too!"

Yan knew that his Uncle Cain and Aunt May have a very high level. Even at his current level, without the help of Catriona, still can't estimate it.

"Yes. I'm surprised you knew my Job. It was a pre-requisite in the castle to at least be this strong. Do you know all the jobs?"

Yan was intrigued. Catriona may know the jobs in this world but it was only this time that Yan had an interest in knowing it.

"No. Can you tell me, Uncle?"

"Okay, sit down and listen carefully. I will tell you the basic things in this world. First, our world is called Azureth. Azureth means Blue in ancient language. It was said that the Old Gods named our world like that because our world is mostly covered with blue oceans. In Azureth, there are three major continents. The Eastern Continent, The Raging Lands, and smallest of the three - The Pandaria. The Eastern Continent is where we are right now."

Cain continued to explain while drawing a map on the ground.

"The Eastern Continent is where the Humans, Dwarves, the Night Elves, Gnomes, Were-People, and The Mystics - races and their kingdoms are established. The alliance of these six races is called The United Arms. It is well-known that the Humans are the leader of The United Arms for we have the most population. On the west side of the world, the Raging Lands is found. The Orcs, Undyings, Beastmen, Trolls, High Goblins and the Blood Elves have also established their kingdoms and have their own alliance. It's called The Bloody Alliance. You must know that The Bloody Alliance and The United Arms are mortal enemies. This hatred dates back ever since history was written. The most interesting of all is the continent of Pandaria. It's located in the middle of both continents. Though relatively smaller than the other continents, the whole continent is the birthplace of race called Pandarens. The Pandarens have a bear-like body but they do not consider themselves as Beastmens for they have different history and ideology. The Empire of the Pandarens ruled the whole continent and is headed by their Emperor. But because of the influence of the other races, the Empire is split by two factions. The west part of the Empire supported the Bloody Alliance while the east part of the empire supports The United Arms. Though the Empire has been divided by ideology, all of the Pandarens are still being ruled by the Emperor. The Emperor supports no faction and faction-wars are forbidden in the continent. The moment a certain faction starts a war, the Emperor will support the other faction to defeat the other. That's why the two factions of the empire are on a stalemate."

Yan was very interested in all of this. He knew what his Uncle telling him is very important in surviving the outside world.

"Now, let's discuss about the Major and Minor Jobs. Major Jobs is the Job that you are born in. I was born as to be a Rogue. The Major Jobs are being Warriors, Paladins, Mages, Rogues, Hunters, Priests, and Warlocks. A child of any race can be born with these jobs. But there are also Major Jobs that are special for certain races. Druids are can only be found in the Night Elves while Shamans can only be born on the Beastmens. Also, only Pandarens can become a Monk. Bloodline can also affect your job. The Mystics and the Blood Elves have strong mana connection so being born a Mage and a Warlock in these races is very advantageous."

Cain paused for a few moments to let Yan digest every information that he's passing to. After a while, he continued.

"Minor jobs are different. These are the jobs that you can learn. People usually choose a minor job that can magnify the effectiveness of their major jobs. For example, a Rogue like me have many minor jobs. I've learned lock-picking, poison works, and cooking. If you go out on the world, you can choose any minor jobs you want but you must be careful because learning one minor job requires a lot of time, effort, and money."

Yan digested all of these crucial informations.

"Okay. Rest for two minutes. After that, we will have a sparring session. Be prepared."
