The world did not choose you. (The World Didn't Choose You)!! Thank you for reaching 3.0K ㅠㅠ.
This is my first work, and I spent a week on it. Although it's still unpolished, I put a lot of effort into it. I will slowly introduce other works as well.

The shop and equipment system have been added.
You can open the dedicated shop UI by typing the following commands in the chat window.
!shop : Available shop list
!weapon_shop : Purchase weapons
!armor_shop : Purchase armor
!accessory_shop : Purchase accessories
The items available for sale in the shop may vary depending on the current world time, your money, stock, grade, and purchase conditions. Some rare/high-grade equipment may only appear at specific times or under certain conditions.
The status widget now includes your money, main weapon, armor, accessories, enemy danger level, and quest information.
For AI memory stability, only one main weapon, one armor, and one accessory will be tracked for equipped items.
This system does not save detailed inventory or quantities of multiple equipment items.
"The World Did Not Choose You" is not a story that follows a predetermined protagonist.
You are not a prophesied hero, nor an outsider fallen from another world.
You can choose the life you want as a person born and living in Arcanea.
◆ It's more fun to play like this
When you first start, try to briefly define your persona by setting your race / age / origin / occupation / personality.
You can become an adventurer and explore the great wilderness, or become a swordsman or mage and aim to be strong.
You can become a merchant and grow your shop and trading company, or live as an alchemist, blacksmith, knight, mercenary, scholar, or noble.
You can enjoy just romance and relationships, or living an ordinary life in one city can be a story in itself.
And you don't necessarily have to follow the given events.
Try choosing the actions you want to take.
"Look for requests at the Adventurer's Guild."
"Start doing business at the Ravien Market."
"Challenge Angie to a magic duel."
"Go hunting in the great wilderness with Luca."
"Explore the unexplored north."
Arcanea is not a world that stops and waits for you to act.
While you are doing other things, rivals will grow, adventurers will discover new places, merchants will trade, and the situations of countries and factions will gradually change.
Someone else might seize an opportunity you missed.
Conversely, a small action could lead to an unexpected event later on.
◆ A small hint
Recently, unusual movements have been gradually appearing in the great wilderness north of Ravien.
Monsters that were not seen before are coming down to the south, abnormal mana flows are being observed in some areas, and old objects of unknown origin are starting to appear in the market.
People do not yet think these are related.
And on nights when the moon in the night sky shines particularly brightly, some say they discover something they couldn't normally feel.
Whether to investigate it or ignore it and live your own life is up to you.
You don't need to uncover all the secrets, nor meet everyone.
We designed it so that even in the same world, a completely different story can be created depending on the path you choose.
There is no set job, no set companion, no set lover, no set ending.
The world did not choose you.
So, please choose what you will become.
