Chapter 43: [Safe Zone!]
[Adrian's POV!]
[Congratulations on completing the Tutorial Level 3!]
A single message before the entire world turned Dark. And then as the time stopped, I saw the white Game Master's screen appearing in front of me again.
"Jeez! Why do you have to be so much hurried," I complained a little regarding how Voltaire just threw me in here. Though since there was little point in complaining, I decided to look at the messages for now.

Because all the quests were compiled in one, I got all the rewards at once. To be fair, I kind of even forgot about the betting ones, but I was still glad that I had the most time with the [Safe Zone!], especially because of how many food items I put there on the first two days.
In any case, it was time to up my Authority Level as well. Something that I had been delaying for quiet long.
[Authority Level: 2 -> 4!]
Though unlike last time, I didn't get two privileges per level but rather an item and a skill.
[You have received the Skill: Debug!]
[You have received the Game Master's Key!]
[Skill: Debug!
Grade: Primordial!
Effects: Allows the user to remove any or all types of irregularities or bugs present within the system! The Game Master can create a firewall, anti-virus, trojan or other type of defense formation to deal with any threats! The user can also fix any form of breach that has occured to the system!]
[Item: Game Master's Key!
Grade: Primordial!
Status: Bound to Adrian John Rodriguez!
Effects: Once every 24 Hours, the Game master can unlock any locked item/door!]
"That seems rather useful," I thought as I understood that the key could be a really useful item given the right time and the right situation. As for the skill, it was still difficult to determine how much I am going to use it. Perhaps I should test it later?
I wanted to increase the Authority Level once more but the cost once again increased by 10, reaching in 10 digit number.

To my surprise, there were no more messages. Neither regarding the next quest, nor any bettings. I pondered about it for a moment before looking through the entire Game Master System once again. But since I didn't find anything more, I decided to press [Continue!].
And as soon as I did that, a dozen messages appeared on the blue system screen.

[Welcome to the Safe Zone!]
[Time left till the next tutorial: 47 Hours: 59 minutes: 50 seconds!]
When my vision came to be, I found myself at the center of a market area. Standing just beside the fountain, I looked up at the scorching sun and the bright blue sky, and then at the people around me.
'I guess, this is the safe zone?' I thought as I saw the carefree look on everyone's face as they continued their daily chore.
I stood there with my [Stealth] on, invisible from the eyes of all the people here, wondering what I should do next. Collecting information always takes priority, but this time, I should sort out the system first. Given all the rewards and stuff, it wouldn't be a good idea to not take a look at all the things that I received this time. Especially that amulet and those gift boxes.
With that thought, I was about to look through the system window, but before I could even do so, a familiar voice came from a distance, catching my attention at once.
"Hey! What do you mean these costs 200 Points? They are barely 100! What are you? A thief?!" A blonde haired girl shouted as she haggled the price of some apples on the stall.
She was Emily, my co-worker from the part time job that I used to do before the apocalypse descended.
