The village was right infront of them, little houses scattered all over, kids chasing chickens, and you could smell woodsmoke everywhere.
Lots of people were looking out windows, staring at Kyle.
The mayor's house was a bit further out. Two stories high with a small garden next to it.
They walked up, then Garrick knocked the door.
Took a second but the door finally opened, revealing a man in his thirties, brown hair, kind of a nice face too.
"Oh, Garrick and Lena." The man smiled warmly. "Who is your friend?"
"Found him in the forest, Mayor Alden," Garrick replied. "He seems to have lost his memory."
"Lost his memory?" A warm voice floated from behind Alden.
`Holy shit.` Kyle's breath hitched.
A beautiful woman in her thirties appeared, her brunette hair tied in a braid over one shoulder. The white blouse and brown skirt clung to every curve, hugged her full hips and huge breasts.
`Milf!` Kyle's eyes widened in surprise when he saw her.
"He was facing a wild boar when we met him," Garrick explained.
"A boar? Alone?" She gasped and put her hand to her chest. "Come inside, dear. You must be freezing."
***
"So, you don't remember anything?" Alden asked.
Kyle sat at the wood table. the fire from the hearth felt so good, just kinda sank into his bones.
He nodded, trying to look like he wasn't lying. "just... woke up in the woods. Nothing before that."
Alden's wife put a hot bowl of stew in front of him. The steam rose into the air.
"Oh, right. We haven't introduced ourselves yet," Alden said. "My name is Alden, I'm the mayor of this village."
He gestured to his wife. "And this is my wife, Eleanor."
"I'm Kyle." Kyle smiled as he said.
"Nice to meet you, Kyle. If you don't have a place to stay, you can stay with us," Alden said kindly. "We have an empty room. You can stay there until you get your memory back."
"Or longer, if need be," Eleanor added with a smile. "We've plenty of space."
Kyle nearly choked on relief. "Thank you. Both of you."
Eleanor smiled gently while Alden laughed and said, "Anyone would do the same in our place."
***
Eleanor led Kyle upstairs, her plump ass was jiggling with each step. Her skirt stretched taut across each cheek, round and full.
Kyle's cock twitched. `Fuck... I'm getting hard.`
His eyes were fixed on Eleanor's plump ass when she suddenly stopped.
"This room will be yours." Eleanor opened the door to the room.
The room was a little small but clean. There was a bed, wardrobe and a small window.
Eleanor bent to smooth the sheets of the bed with her ass angled toward him.
`Is she doing this on purpose?` His cock get even harder.
"I put some of Alden's clothes in here." She opened the wardrobe, her ass still faced him. "They may be broad, but better than nothing."
"If you need anything, I'll be in the kitchen." She turned towards him, which made her breasts sway slightly.
"Thank you, Eleanor." Kyle thanked her, but his eyes slipped to her ass again when she turned to leave.
He went to the wardrobe and wear some clothes. And when he was sure he was alone, he opened the system screen.
"Now, I have to choose a class that suits me."
Kyle began scrolling through and studying each class carefully.
`Black mage? The church hunt them. Barbarian? I'd rather use my mind than my body. Potion maker? Not very powerful...`
Kyle kept looking carefully through the long list of classes. There are 99 different classes. He knew that this choice would determine his future in this world.
Time passed, and an hour went by as he kept thinking.
`Finally, I'm done.` Kyle sighed in relief. `I narrowed down the choices to three classes... Necromancer, Strategist, Mind Controller.`
`I chose Necromancer because it's the class I've seen most in novels, so I have a lot of information about it. I included Strategist because it suits my way of thinking and acting.`
`As for Mind Controller, it's suitable for all situations... But it's a double-edged sword. If I don't use it well, I could die.`
Kyle continues thinking about these three options for a while. Meanwhile, his eyes slipped to a particular class a few times.
[Class 48: Miracle Maker]
He didn't know anything about this class, but it reminded him of a character he loved from some novel.
Nevertheless, he did not let his emotions control this crucial decision and finally made his choice.
"Mind Controller." Kyle selected it in the screen. "I hope I won't regret this choice later."
A bright glow appeared in the system screen, causing Kyle to squint.
["Mind Controller" has been selected.]
[You have received a core skill: "Mind Control"]
Kyle clicked on the "Mind Control" skill, causing the system screen in front of him to change.
[Mind Control - Core Skill: This skill allows you control another person's thoughts, will, memories, and body. If your intelligence stat is higher than your target's, controlling them becomes easier. Intelligence stats do not matter if the target is mentally unstable or friendly toward you.]
Kyle read the skill description carefully. He tried to pay attention to any hidden details and to learn as much information as possible.
"So I need to focus on raising my intelligence stat..." Kyle narrowed his eyes.
`Hmm... I can use the skill on someone who has a higher intelligence stat than me, but only if they're mentally unstable... but this could put me in danger if the control didn't work.`
"The easiest way is for the person to have friendly feelings towards me... Love, friendship, lust? I don't know, I have to test it... It seems that the deeper the feelings, the easier it is to control the person."
Kyle was able to glean a lot of information from the skill description. Still, he had to try the skill first to make sure.
After that, he started exploring the system. He went into the status option.
Suddenly, a new screen appeared in front of him:
[Name: Kyle]
[Class: Mind Controller]
[Strength: 6 | Intelligence: 8 | Endurance: 7 | Agility: 5 | Magic: 0]
[Ununsed Stats Points: 0]
[Skills: "Mind Control"]
"Unused points? Can I put the points in any stat I want? But how do I get them..."
The system screen changed as if answering his question:
[You can get unused stat points by killing creatures. The stronger the creature is, the more points you get.]
Kyle laughed. "Great! Looks like I need to go on some adventures in the future."
Kyle's laughter faded and a sly smile appeared on his face. "But now I need to try out my skill... And I know the perfect person to try it on."
