《Worldwide Classchange: I Got Five Elder Sisters Supporting Me While I Level Up》 Chapter 1 Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation Roland Continent, Acacia Academy The Academy¡¯s square was already filled with students. People were all huddling together, and everyone¡¯s faces were filled with excitement. For the students of Acacia, today was destined to be a special day. A hundred years ago, the game merged with the real world. Since then, everyone¡¯s lives had undergone earth-shaking changes. When humans turned 18, they could use the Class Change Crystal to stimulate their Class Talent and successfully change their profession. Countless Catacombs Secret Realms appeared in the wild, and they could level up by killing monsters. It was like killing monsters and clearing dungeons in a video game, arousing everyone¡¯s adventurous heart. Of course, the prerequisite was that you had the ability to do so. Otherwise, if someone really died, it would not be like a video game, where players would respawn. There was no second chance. A huge crystal stone stood in the center, emitting a dazzling glow under the reflection of the sun. ¡°Oh, I¡¯ll definitely be able to become a full-time Berserker like Chancellor Wilson this time.¡± The man who said this revealed his bulging muscles, like a lion running in the forest. He indeed had the potential to become a Berserker. ¡°What¡¯s so good about Berserkers? Elementalists are the most powerful, like Master Rhode.¡± When the man heard this, he revealed a disdainful smile. ¡°Elementalists are cowards. They only know how to hide at the back and secretly cast their skills. If someone gets close to them, they¡¯ll be finished!¡± ¡°You Berserkers are the simple-minded ones. All you have are strong limbs.¡± Seeing that the two of them were about to quarrel, a commotion broke out in the crowd. ¡°Oh! Guys, look!¡± Five women and one man walked towards them. The girl in the lead had brilliant blonde hair, as if the sunlight from the Fossilia Forest shone down on her, but her light blue pupils were like the lake water of Gurten Island, rippling slightly. Looking at her, people could not help but feel intoxicated. The few women behind her also had their own unique features. They were sweet, cute, and mature. One could not take their eyes off them. One had to admit that God was sometimes biased. For a moment, all the students¡¯ attention was attracted. ¡°Oh my god, Miss Abigail is still as beautiful as ever. This appearance is simply the most meticulous masterpiece of the Creator.¡± ¡± I really want to kiss Miss Catherine¡¯s hair and become her exclusive knight.¡± ¡°Dream on! If you want to become Miss Catherine¡¯s knight, you have to ask for my permission first.¡± These girls were the most influential figures in the Academy, and they were the Goddesses in everyone¡¯s hearts. Therefore, the only man walking behind them was an eyesore. Many people revealed envious gazes, wishing they could challenge him right now. ¡°Who is that man? How can he be qualified to walk behind Miss Emma?¡± ¡°You don¡¯t even know him? That¡¯s Victor King, the Goddess¡¯s younger brother.¡± ¡°From now on, I announce that Victor King is my brother. The light of my Holy Sword will shine on him.¡± ¡°With your ability, I¡¯m afraid you won¡¯t even be able to pull out the Holy Sword. Don¡¯t use counterfeit goods to make up the numbers.¡± It turned out that these people were from the Victor family. They had five daughters: The eldest sister Abigail, the second sister Bella, the third sister Catherine, the fourth sister Doris, and the fifth sister Emma. The youngest was Victor King, and he was also the youngest son in the family. ¡°Everyone, quiet down.¡± As Dean Blake stepped onto the stage, the crowd gradually quieted down. He looked kind and benevolent, and his eyes were filled with wisdom. ¡°My good children, congratulations on finally turning 18 and welcoming the most special day of your life. Here, I wish you all the best in obtaining the Class you want.¡± ¡°Go forth, aspiring youths. A new adventure awaits you!¡± Blake¡¯s words made everyone¡¯s blood boil. It was as if the door to a new world had been opened. Abigail was the first to walk up to the professional crystal. ¡°Big Sister, don¡¯t be nervous. No matter what your Class is, I believe that with your ability, you will be able to achieve great things.¡± ¡°Yes, Big Sister. You will always be our pride.¡± The others cheered for Abigail. Although that was the case, everyone wanted to get a Hidden Class. The rarer the Class, the more powerful it represented. Abigail nodded. Her expression was calm and composed, without any signs of panic. As the eldest daughter of the family, no matter where she went, she paid great attention to her appearance. She walked in front of the crystal and slowly placed her hand on it. Her every move was filled with the bearing and elegance of a noble. In an instant, the golden light shot into the sky, illuminating most of the sky. It was so piercingly bright that everyone could hardly open their eyes, so much so that everyone raised their hands to block it. Blake muttered to himself, ¡°Such powerful energy. I haven¡¯t seen it for many years.¡± ¡°This light is so bright. What Class is it?¡± A huge silhouette of a sword appeared behind Abigail and gradually materialized in the air. Even the complicated patterns on it could be seen clearly. Such a symbol meant that Abigail¡¯s Class was related to Knights. ¡°I-it¡¯s a Paladin.¡± Although the Paladin Class was not bad, it was not a Hidden Class. The members of the Victor family could not help but feel disappointed. Bella comforted her. ¡°It¡¯s okay. Even if it¡¯s a Paladin, Big Sister is still the best.¡± However, the golden light was still soaring. It was as if a radiant sun was rising slowly, and the wonder of two suns actually formed in the sky. Blake, who was knowledgeable, soon discovered that something was wrong. ¡°No! This is not a Paladin.¡± He was too excited, and his voice changed slightly. Roar! A deafening dragon¡¯s roar shook everyone¡¯s hearts. The pressure pervaded the entire square, as if it was an insurmountable chasm. Everyone¡¯s eyes widened. It was really too powerful! A huge shadow covered everyone¡¯s heads. Behind the sword shadow, a giant golden dragon appeared. The sword and the dragon were clearly contradictory, but they strangely fused together. The dragon was just like the real thing. The scales on its body were shining with golden light, similar to Abigail¡¯s hair. The pressure in its eyes made people dare not look at it directly, as if it was blasphemy to look at it too much. ¡°Th-this is a Dragon God Knight¨C¡± The voice of the person who said this was trembling. A Dragon God Knight was a rare sight to see, even in a hundred years. It had been a long time since a Dragon God Knight had appeared on this continent. Therefore, no one noticed it at first and thought that it was just a Paladin. At this moment, Abigail was basking in the sunlight. Although it was just an ordinary square, she had the aura worthy of a red carpet. She looked like a queen, looking down on everyone. The giant dragon submitted to her, and wherever the sword pointed, the dragon¡¯s breath would reach. This was the power of a Dragon God Knight! At this moment, everyone held their breaths, as if they had seen the birth of a peerless expert. Chapter 2 Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation The dragon race was one of the most powerful races after the game had arrived. It could be said that they were an existence that could do whatever they wanted on the entire continent. Fortunately, they did not kill. As a neutral race, other than the Evil Black Dragons, they usually lived on Dragon Island and rarely appeared, so few people had seen a real dragon. This giant dragon was only a phantom, but it already gave off a huge pressure. One could imagine how terrifying it would be if it was facing its true form. ¡°It¡¯s been so many years since I¡¯ve seen the Dragon God Knight. I didn¡¯t expect to see one again today.¡± An old man had unknowingly appeared beside Dean Blake. He looked like an old man without any cultivation, just like an ordinary citizen of the continent. The strange thing was that even when he stood there, he did not attract anyone¡¯s attention. It was as if a pair of invisible hands had erased his existence. The only thing that stood out about him was his eyes, which had been washed by history and shone with wisdom. Blake was very surprised to see him. He said respectfully, ¡°Why are you here?¡± Blake was the dean of Acacia Academy, and he had the strength of a Grand Magister. His status was high and mighty, and he was respected wherever he went. For him to show such respect to such an ordinary person, it was obvious that this old man¡¯s identity was not simple. ¡°You don¡¯t have to be surprised. I just felt the dragon¡¯s breath that I haven¡¯t felt for a long time, so I came to take a look.¡± From the old man¡¯s tone, it seemed that he had seen a real dragon before. The Dragon God Knight was an extremely rare Class. It could be said to be a limited edition even among the Hidden Classes. For the past hundred years, this Class had only been heard of by name. No one had ever seen it before. Some people had even never heard of it. Now, there was a living Dragon God Knight standing in front of everyone. How could they not be surprised? In Acacia Academy, no, it could even be said that in the entire Roland Continent, this was a moment that was enough to be recorded in the history of Class Awakenings. A transparent panel appeared in the air, and a few lines of golden words slowly appeared. [Acacia Academy, Abigail, Awakened Combat Class: Dragon God Knight] ¡°The name Dragon God Knight sounds so cool. I¡¯ve never heard of it before.¡± ¡°Oh my god, the Goddess is too powerful. Will she be able to ride a dragon and fly in the future? Wouldn¡¯t that be even more eye-catching?¡± ¡°Just imagining that scene makes me a little excited.¡± No matter how much the people below praised her, Abigail remained calm and unmoved. She was indeed the eldest daughter of the Victor family. She was born to stand at the peak and be admired by everyone. The other members of the Victor family were not as calm as Abigail. They were so happy that they could not say anything. Abigail¡¯s Hidden Class made them proud. The old man seemed to have fallen into some kind of memory, and his face revealed a sigh. ¡°I remember that it was under the leadership of the Dragon God Knight that we were able to fight for a chance to breathe.¡± In some historical records, when the game had just arrived, not all humans could awaken their Classes. Because they were not prepared, the humans suffered heavy losses. Their homes had been invaded and they had lost their homes. The land had become a paradise for wild monsters, and countless humans had been lost to the hands of various monsters. At that time, a powerful Dragon God Knight appeared. Under his leadership, the humans counterattacked and recovered their lost territory. This Knight¡¯s contribution was indispensable. One day, he suddenly disappeared without a trace, as if he had evaporated from the face of the earth. There was no trace of his existence, and he was gradually forgotten in the long river of history. Now, only a few people knew about it. The old man was one of them. ¡°Perhaps this little girl can continue the glory of that Lord, but she still has a long way to go.¡± This could be said to be an extremely high evaluation. ¡°Those students have no idea how powerful a mature Dragon God Knight is. In their eyes, they only think that it¡¯s cool to be able to ride a dragon.¡± What the old man did not know was that Victor King was explaining to his sisters. After all, Victor King knew nothing about this world after his rebirth. Therefore, he read many books and accidentally became a walking encyclopedia. There were no more than three types of Class in all continents, namely Combat, Support, and Life. Even the weakest Life-type could play a vital role. There were all kinds of Classes, and someone had counted them up to thousands. These were all relatively common and were recorded in the Class system. It did not mean that all the Classes had been included. In fact, there were many Hidden Classes waiting to be discovered. Just like how a game was constantly updated, new Classes would appear. The Dragon God Knight was like something that had been deleted because it was too heaven-defying and then came back online. Roar! The dragon let out a low groan, and the originally noisy square instantly became quiet, not even daring to breathe loudly. The dragon¡¯s roar sounded like human language. This time, not only Blake, but even the old man was shocked. ¡°This is a real dragon projection!¡± Abigail did not understand the dragon language, but at that moment, she understood the dragon language. It was probably because of her Class. Everyone below the stage could not believe it, and their gazes were somewhat dull. ¡°Am I seeing things? This dragon seems to be talking?¡± ¡°It¡¯s actually not an illusion!¡± Everyone thought that it was just a phantom of a dragon. Moreover, Dragon Island was 108,000 miles away from the Roland Continent. It was impossible for the dragon¡¯s true body to really descend. However, the fact that it could make an illusory figure appear on the distant Roland Continent was enough to prove that this dragon¡¯s strength was extraordinary. This was the first time such a situation had occurred. The dragon race was publicly acknowledged as one of the strongest races, but there were also differences in strength and size among them. It was just that outsiders did not know about them. After all, they were too mysterious. ¡°The Class Awakening is successful and some of the Class items can be turned into physical objects. This time, it¡¯s a dragon!¡± Due to everyone¡¯s unique characteristics and their different Classes, countless different scenes can also appear. No one knew what the Dragon God Knight Class Awakening was like. It was too rare, and there were no books left for reference. ¡°Did Abigail really summon a dragon?¡± The crowd discussed animatedly. The dragon turned into a faint golden light and fused with Abigail¡¯s body along with the giant sword, leaving everyone with endless fantasies. Even though the giant dragon had already dissipated, the remaining might was still there. When she walked off the stage, Victor King could not help but ask, ¡°Big Sister, what did the dragon say just now?¡± The surrounding people pricked up their ears. It was not a secret, so Abigail did not hide it. ¡°It asked me to go to the Dragon Island to meet it.¡± Chapter 3 Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation Abigail looked thoughtful. After the dragon finished speaking, a map appeared in her mind. If she guessed correctly, the location of the red dot was where Dragon Island was. Dragon Island was too far away from the Roland Continent. Abigail knew the importance of the map, so she did not say it out loud. The other students were in an uproar. ¡°So there really is a Dragon Island? I always thought it was a legend.¡± A successful Class change was just the beginning. She could borrow the power of the dragon, but if she wanted to become a true and mature Dragon God Knight, she still needed to go to Dragon Island and sign a treaty with the dragon. This was also a challenge given to the knights by the dragons. If they failed, they would naturally not be qualified to become their masters. Only the Dragon God Knights could step foot on Dragon Island. Other intruders would definitely die. After all, not everyone could face the dragon race¡¯s pressure. No one had expected that becoming a Dragon God Knight would have such an extraordinary experience. The outside world knew too little about the Dragon God Knight. ¡°Legend has it that there are many treasures guarded by dragons on Dragon Island. I wonder if it¡¯s true.¡± ¡°Dragons naturally like gold, silver, and jewelry. Wouldn¡¯t the treasures they have accumulated be comparable to a country¡¯s wealth?¡± ¡°Forget a country, with that amount of wealth, she can probably sink the entire Roland Continent.¡± Abigail was only an Awakened now and was not a mature Dragon Knight, but she was not to be underestimated. When she walked down from the stage, her dazzling golden hair was like she was kissed by the Sun God, and everyone subconsciously made way for her. ¡°Congratulations, Big Sis,¡± Victor King stepped forward. Unlike the coldness she had when facing others, Abigail¡¯s cherry lips curled up slightly. In an instant, it was as if ice and snow had melted, and all her gentleness was given to her youngest brother. The power of the usually cold beauty¡¯s smile was very powerful. It could be seen from the stunned expressions of the other students. ¡°Thank you.¡± Before Victor King could react, Abigail hugged him tightly. At such a close distance, he could feel her beautiful body and smell a faint fragrance. He did not know if it was his imagination, but he felt a warm current flowing through his body, and it quickly disappeared without a trace. Victor King did not take it to heart. This was probably the time when Abigail¡¯s emotions were the most out of control, but she quickly returned to her usual calm appearance. Her smile just now was just a flash in the pan. Doris could not help but tease her. ¡°Big Sister is biased! You only pamper Little Brother. We want hugs too.¡± Abigail glanced at her and said calmly, ¡°How old are you? You¡¯re not even conducting yourself properly as an elder sister. You¡¯ve made a fool of yourself in front of Little Brother.¡± These words could be said to be a complete double standard. The others were not surprised. They were already used to Abigail¡¯s preference for Victor King. After all, even they were the same. However, the envious gazes of the surrounding people fell on Victor King. If it wasn¡¯t for this relationship, Victor King would have been assassinated countless times. Soon, it was Bella¡¯s turn. Just like Abigail, she had brilliant blonde hair, but her emerald eyes were not as sharp as Abigail¡¯s. Instead, they flickered with a gentle light. Bella did not have her eldest sister¡¯s cold and aloof attitude, and she was also quite popular in the Academy. If Abigail was the Snow Lotus that stood tall in the Brydin mountains range, then Bella was the rippling Lake of Kars. Their personalities were completely opposite. ¡°Second Sister, don¡¯t feel pressured. Just do what you have to do.¡± Abigail¡¯s Class had caught everyone¡¯s attention. Everyone was afraid that Bella would be under pressure, so they kept cheering her on. As Bella went on stage, the crowd began to discuss again. ¡°Abigail has Awakened as a Dragon God Knight. I wonder what will happen to Bella.¡± ¡°Could it be another Hidden Class?¡± ¡°Not necessarily. Last time, among the Rock family¡¯s twins, didn¡¯t the eldest Awaken a Hidden Class as well? In the end, the younger one turned out to be an ordinary Life-type Class.¡± ¡°For a gentle Goddess like Bella, her Awakened Class must be a Healing or Wood category of Class. It should be more in line with her personality.¡± Under everyone¡¯s gaze, Bella placed her hands on the Class Change Crystal. It was impossible to say that she was not nervous. If her Class change did not work, it would be a disgrace to the Victor family, right? May God bless her and hope that her Class is not bad. Bella muttered in her heart. Her slender hand landed on the crystal, and her emerald eyes stared at the crystal without blinking. A gentle power rippled out, and a small drop of water fell on Bella¡¯s hand. Then, it turned into a trickle, and countless water spirits were born. They flapped their transparent wings and surrounded her, expressing their intimacy and love. She was like Venus, born from the water. She was like a moon surrounded by stars. She only needed to look at everyone and they would be intoxicated by her beauty. With Abigail¡¯s extraordinary Awakening, the other students could not help but feel a little disappointed. ¡°So it¡¯s a Water Mage.¡± Elementalists of all kinds were very common, and they were not rare Classes. Immediately, someone spoke up for their Goddess. ¡°So what if it¡¯s water? Water is very useful, and our Goddess has a gentle personality. It¡¯s quite suitable.¡± Bella was a little disappointed, and her green eyes dimmed. It seemed that it was not a Hidden Class. However, what she did not notice was that there seemed to be something quietly surging in the Class Change Crystal. In an instant, a bright flame leaped onto the crystal, as if it could burn one¡¯s sight. The tongue of flame shot into the sky with violent elements. Even the surrounding people could feel the rolling heat wave. ¡°What¡¯s going on?¡± Everyone was frightened by this sudden burst of power and retreated. In the Class Crystal, a domineering fire element actually appeared. Red and blue intertwined, and there was no distinction between them. ¡°It¡¯s a Dual-Elemental Mage! But why are there two elements, water and fire? You have to know that these two elements are inherently incompatible and difficult to control.¡± Dual-Elemental Mages were rarer than ordinary Single-Elemental Mages. The more common ones were wind and fire, water and earth, or earth and wood. These mages were powerful, and they were usually able to play a greater role. However, if it was two conflicting attributes, it would be a little difficult because it would require a lot of mental energy to balance the relationship between the two elements. It might even be better to have a single attribute. This dual-element was almost useless. Everyone could not help but sigh. ¡°It wasn¡¯t easy for her to become a Dual-Elemental Mage, but in the end, she had these two elements. Bella is too unlucky.¡± ¡°How could this happen? My goddess has such a good personality. How could she activate the fire element after the water element? God, are you asleep?¡± Even the members of the Victor family were worried about Bella¡¯s future. Chapter 4 Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation ¡°Forget it. Maybe she can think of a way to get rid of the fire element in the future.¡± Victor King stared at the crystal with a burning gaze. Fire and water were clearly opposing each other, but at this moment, they were in a strange harmonious state. There was only one possibility! ¡°Unless¡­¡± The fire element itself was overbearing, not to mention that Bella¡¯s Awakening had displayed even more powerful strength. Blake could not help but sigh. ¡°A Dual-Elemental Mage is also very powerful. Water can contain all things. She would be compatible with both wind and earth, but this fire element is a waste of this child¡¯s talent.¡± The old man beside him had a different opinion. ¡°Blake, it seems that you¡¯ve been in the Academy for too long. Has the good life blurred your senses?¡± With Blake¡¯s current position, who would dare to criticize him? However, when faced with the old man, not only did he not get angry, but he also showed an attentive expression. ¡°Please give me some pointers.¡± ¡°You only saw the dominance of the fire element, but you never thought about why the fire element was so powerful but did not break the balance.¡± Blake looked at the Class Change Crystal. The two colors, red and blue, were clearly incompatible, but they maintained a strange balance. It seemed that there was a force that was secretly maintaining the operation. Only Victor King and the old man realized that Bella was not simple. Blake suddenly understood and was extremely surprised. ¡°Could it be that she¡¯s not just a Dual-Element Mage?!¡± As soon as she finished speaking, green spiritual energy burst out from the crystal. A breeze from somewhere blew Bella¡¯s hair. ¡°Look!¡± Everyone exclaimed. Between the red and blue, there was another color. ¡°It¡¯s the wind element!¡± ¡°Bella isn¡¯t a Dual-Element Mage, she¡¯s a Tri-Element Mage!¡± Three-Elemental Mages were even rarer. In the entire city, only the Guild Master of the Mage Guild, Cass, had three elements. Emma was overjoyed. ¡°I knew Second Sister wouldn¡¯t let us down.¡± Victor King smiled meaningfully. ¡°Just you wait, there¡¯s more to the show.¡± Hearing his words, Catherine looked puzzled. ¡°Little Brother, what do you mean?¡± Victor King pretended to be mysterious. ¡°You¡¯ll find out later.¡± The other students were also happy for Bella. ¡°Although it¡¯s not as good as the Dragon God Knight Class, it¡¯s rare to see a Tri-Element Mage.¡± Mage Guild. Looking at the pillars of light that lit up the sky one after another, the elemental ability pervaded the air. The group of people from the Mage Guild could also feel it. ¡°It¡¯s the Acacia Academy, right? I heard that today is the day for students to Awaken their Class.¡± ¡°A Dual-Elemental Mage is alright, but it¡¯s the water and fire elements? Forget it, that¡¯s not even as good as a Single-Elemental Mage.¡± ¡°Eh? A Tri-Elemental Mage? If this student¡¯s talent is not bad, they can be recruited. After all, it¡¯s not common. This student might be a good seedling.¡± The Mage Guild was spread across the entire continent. It was a huge organization. Almost every city had a branch, which included all the powerful mages. Peg City was no exception. However, the threshold for recruitment was also very high. Ordinary mages could not enter easily. They had to go through various assessments, and they had to be very talented. Cass ordered the people below, ¡°Send someone to the Academy to see how talented that student is. If it¡¯s possible, there¡¯s no need to take the test.¡± ¡­ On the other side, the Class Change Crystal was still surging, as if it had no intention of stopping. Looking at this situation, no matter how slow everyone was, they could still feel that something was amiss. ¡°No way, no way, Bella isn¡¯t a Tri-Elemental Mage, could it be¨C¡± Before he could finish speaking, there was another burst of light. Brown spiritual energy quickly spread in all directions. Everyone could feel the ground beneath their feet trembling. ¡°Earthquake!¡± someone exclaimed. ¡°How is that possible? Peg City hasn¡¯t had an earthquake for hundreds of years. Moreover, the Academy is protected. Even if there was an earthquake, we would be fine.¡± Everyone calmed down and realized that the source was actually on the Class Change Crystal. Besides the red, blue, and green colors, there was a touch of brown. It was filled with a heavy smell and actually gave people a sense of peace. The students gulped, feeling nervous. ¡°It¡¯s not a Tri-Elemental Mage, it¡¯s a Quad-Elemental Mage! This is the power of the earth element.¡± If the three elements were rare, then the four elements were rare in all the continents. ¡°Oh my god, it¡¯s actually a Quad-Elemental Mage. I didn¡¯t expect to see one in my lifetime.¡± ¡°This is simply too amazing. She broke the Academy¡¯s, no, the entire Peg City¡¯s record.¡± Quad-Elemental Mages were even more powerful than some Hidden Classes. A faint smile finally appeared on Bella¡¯s face. However, things were not over yet. The pale green light was like a firefly as it descended from the sky and scattered on the surrounding plants. The originally withered plants actually regained their vitality. Even the flower bud that was about to bloom was stretching its body. ¡°How could it be? Why did the flowers suddenly bloom?¡± ¡°Also, hasn¡¯t this tree been dead for decades? After being struck by lightning, all that¡¯s left is a stump. Why did it suddenly sprout? ¡± ¡°Am I seeing things? Why do I feel like the ivy has grown a lot taller? Everyone was dumbfounded as they looked at the strange things that suddenly appeared around them. There were many of them all at once. All kinds of mushrooms and plants popped up like bamboo shoots after the rain. Such a strange sight was truly unheard of and unseen. Victor King was the only one who remained calm. He shook his head and said, ¡°This is the power of the wood element. What¡¯s so strange about it?¡± The wood element was indeed very common, but the key was that such powerful energy was rare. Only a Fourth Transition Wood Mage could revive a dead tree and sprout new leaves. Bella had just awakened, but she could already cause such a phenomenon. This meant that she had an abundance of wood element and an extremely strong affinity. Such talent could be called monstrous. It was truly shocking. It would have been fine if it was just these, but she was actually a Five-Elemental Mage! Even the old man was a little stunned. He had thought that Bella would at most have four elements. He did not expect her to have such room for development. He could not help but smile self-deprecatingly. ¡°Earlier, I said that you were wrong. I didn¡¯t expect that I was wrong too.¡± ¡°Such wood-elemental energy, even I am shocked.¡± This was only the beginning. Thunder suddenly rumbled in the sky, and a deafening clap of thunder rang out on the ground. The explosion stunned everyone for a long time. Purple lightning intertwined and divided the sky into countless parts. Countless lightning dragons swam around and glared at everyone. ¡°Damn, is it going to rain?¡± ¡°It¡¯s so strange. The sun was shining brightly just now. Why did it rain so suddenly?¡± ¡°I heard that some people who have an affinity with elemental energy can cause abnormal phenomena in the world. Could it be that she has awakened the lightning element too?¡± There were some people who were really blessed by God, and Bella was such a person. Chapter 5 Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation No one expected her to awaken the lightning element. Immediately after, golden spiritual energy surged out. In the end, black-and-white spiritual energy actually appeared, announcing their existence in a powerful manner. Everyone was already numb to the end. Whenever they thought that Bella¡¯s elemental awakening was over, another one would soon appear. ¡°Can anyone count how many elements appeared just now?¡± ¡°My eyes are almost blinded by the light.¡± ¡°When the lightning element appeared just now, it was so powerful that I almost thought I was going to be struck by lightning.¡± ¡°Light and darkness are the most powerful. I¡¯ve never seen a mage with these two elements!¡± ¡°When the dark element appeared, it was truly amazing. It almost made me think that the end of the world had arrived.¡± Colorful lights flashed in the sky like fireworks. Everyone in the city was dumbfounded. Those who did not know better thought that something had happened to Acacia Academy. On the other side, the people from the Mage Guild were about to leave when they sensed the power of various elements coming from the Academy. Everyone was shocked. ¡°Could it be a Tri-Elemental Mage?¡± Cass, who had been calm, immediately stood up from his chair. As the Guild Master, his perception was stronger than anyone else. The peaceful elements in the air suddenly erupted and gathered towards Acacia Academy. ¡°What kind of power is this? It can cause all the elements to resonate!¡± Because of his excitement, his voice was trembling. He was calm even if there was a huge commotion. At this moment, he was no longer as calm as before. ¡°No matter who this person is, he must join my Mage Guild. I want to go to Acacia Academy personally!¡± To be able to cause such elemental turmoil, one could imagine how great the potential was. It was rare to see such a thing even in a hundred years! [Acacia Academy, Bella, Awakened Combat Class: Full-Elemental Mage] Bathed in all kinds of spiritual light, Bella¡¯s face was like a dream. Everyone could not believe their eyes. ¡°Full-Elemental mage? Why haven¡¯t I heard of it before?¡± ¡°Oh my god, it¡¯s another super Hidden Class. It¡¯s probably comparable to the Dragon God Knight.¡± ¡°I¡¯ve never seen anyone with three elements. Let alone one with all elements, as the name suggests, she should be able to control all the elements.¡± ¡°I remember that the strongest mage in the Roland Continent only has five elements. Who knows how many elements Bella had just now?¡± ¡°Water, fire, wind, earth¡­ There are a total of nine elements, which means that Bella can use any of them. This is too abnormal.¡± Everyone was shocked. Without exception, a Full-Elemental Mage was a Hidden Class. Not to mention, during the Awakening process, Bella¡¯s elemental affinity was simply heaven-defying. It could be seen from the phenomenon that had just been triggered. The stronger the affinity, the greater the power that could be unleashed. Every element had been fully drawn, and it was almost the existence of the ceiling. Emma could not help but be surprised. ¡°Little Brother, you¡¯re too amazing. Did you already know that Second Sister is a Full-Elemental Mage?¡± Victor King shook his head and kept a low profile. ¡°I can¡¯t predict the future, but I know that my sister is not simple.¡± He recalled the records he had read in ancient books, and his expression could not help but reveal some emotion. ¡°There was once a Full-Elemental Mage in the Roland Continent. He was also a dazzling figure.¡± ¡°Little Brother is the best. No one is better than him in terms of knowledge.¡± ¡°Eldest Sister is a Dragon God Knight, and Second Sister is a Full-Elemental Mage. They really make the family proud.¡± The members of the Victor family were all very happy. With these two experts, the Victor family would be able to maintain their honor for a hundred years. ¡°I didn¡¯t expect her to be a Full-Elemental Mage. This young lady has a bright future ahead of her.¡± The sudden voice attracted everyone¡¯s attention. Someone recognized him. ¡°It¡¯s actually the Guild Master of the Mage Guild!¡± Even Cass was alarmed. One could imagine how much commotion Bella had caused. Blake nodded at Cass. Cass was different from the other students, so he naturally saw the old man. He was slightly surprised and then nodded to show his respect. ¡°So your name is Bella. I wonder if you¡¯re interested in coming to the Mage Guild.¡± There were not many people who could be invited personally by the Guild Master, Cass. Moreover, Bella was just a student who had just Awakened. Even the powerful Elementalists did not have such an honor. His gaze was burning as if he had discovered some treasure. Even Bella¡¯s expression was a little unnatural under his gaze. ¡°If you¡¯re willing to join, I can directly apply to the higher-ups to let you join the Guild Headquarters and go to the Maine Branch to study. You¡¯ll be personally taught by the Elemental Master.¡± The conditions that Cass had offered one after another left everyone dumbfounded. Although Peg City¡¯s resources and standards were not bad, there was still a gap compared to Maine City. Bella¡¯s jump in social class was quite significant. Not to mention ordinary people, even the nobles would be a little tempted when they heard it. Seeing that she did not agree immediately, Cass could not help but feel a little anxious. He knew very well what it meant to be a Full-Elemental Mage. If the news spread, the neighboring city would probably come to snatch her. Before that, he had to strike first and gain the upper hand. He had to recruit the person into the guild. At that time, when the Guild Headquarters hear of the news, he would definitely be rewarded greatly. He might even be promoted. Cass knew his own limits. If Bella was a Tri-Elemental Mage or even a Quad-Elemental Mage, he would be more than capable of teaching her. He had also thought of taking her as a disciple. But she was a Full-Elemental Mage! A figure that had not appeared for hundreds of years, even if the Central Union knew about it, they would still be shocked. Such a person was not someone he could teach. Perhaps only the Guild Headquarters, which was full of talents, had such qualifications. ¡°As long as you agree, you can name your conditions! I will do my best to give you the best resources, even the Mage Guild will do the same.¡± Bella was a little stunned. She did not expect Cass to offer such a condition just because she hesitated. ¡°Thank you, Master Cass, but my brother and sister haven¡¯t Awakened their Classes yet, so I won¡¯t consider this for the time being.¡± Bella was tempted. Cass¡¯s offer could bring huge benefits to the Victor family. Although she did not agree immediately, she did not reject him either. Cass could not help but heave a sigh of relief. He was afraid that Bella would reject him. ¡°Then take your time to think about it. Don¡¯t make a decision in a hurry.¡± Looking at him, those who did not know better would think that Bella was the Guild Master of the Mage Guild. The students of Acacia were flabbergasted. They felt that the world had become a fantasy. Chapter 6 Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation Perhaps it was because Cass was present, but everyone was a little reserved. After all, this was Peg City, and people here did not usually get to see figures such as the Guild Master of the Mage Guild. Now that they saw him showing such an expression to a student who had just Awakened, everyone relaxed. ¡°Goddess Bella¡¯s charm is so great that even someone like Master Cass was alarmed.¡± ¡°I¡¯m so envious. If only I could join the Mage Guild.¡± ¡°A Single-Elemental Mage like you has to pass an assessment to enter. Goddess Bella is different. She¡¯s the type that can be directly sent to the Guild Headquarters.¡± ¡°The Victor family is too powerful. Abigail and Bella are both so powerful. It doesn¡¯t matter if the others can¡¯t do it.¡± ¡°Bah! What kind of jinx is this? The other Goddesses won¡¯t be any worse off.¡± Soon, it was Catherine¡¯s turn. If Abigail and Bella¡¯s hair had been kissed by the sun, then Catherine was the incarnation of the laurel Goddess. Her long silver hair was as smooth as silk, shining with a lively luster. Her eyes were long and narrow, and her purple pupils were like beautiful gems, making people unable to help but want to indulge in them. The curve at the end of her eyes could accurately hook the bottom of one¡¯s heart. ¡°Goddess Catherine is still so beautiful. They¡¯re all wearing the same clothes, but when she¡¯s wearing them, she has a special charm.¡± ¡°Hey, bro, wipe your saliva. You¡¯re drooling.¡± Catherine walked onto the stage with a swaying posture. Her curvaceous back gave people unlimited imagination. It could be said that every woman in the Victor family had a different personality, but without exception, they were all extremely beautiful. ¡°I wonder what Class Third Sister will awaken this time.¡± ¡°With Third Sister¡¯s personality, Emma really can¡¯t think of a suitable career for her at the moment.¡± As Catherine placed her hands on the Class Change Crystal, she blinked and blew a kiss at Victor King. ¡°Little Brother, wait for me to give you another Hidden Class.¡± It was clearly just a simple action, but it seemed to have its own charm, causing many people to go crazy. Many male students below the stage immediately became restless and shouted excitedly, ¡°Goddess Catherine! Goddess Catherine!¡± Victor King was once again surrounded by envious and jealous eyes, and this time it was even more obvious. He felt as if he was being stabbed in the back. He smiled helplessly at Catherine¡¯s actions. ¡°Third Sister, you¡¯re still as low-key as ever.¡± Emma teased, ¡°Little brother, I think you don¡¯t know how lucky you are. How many people want such treatment?¡± There were people who liked him, and naturally, there were also people who hated him. Catherine was not a heartthrob. There were a few girls in the Academy who did not like this kind of behavior and could not help but start to mutter. ¡°Do they really think it¡¯s like a lucky draw? Hidden Classes aren¡¯t Awakened just by saying so.¡± ¡°That¡¯s right. Aren¡¯t you afraid of bragging and hurting your tongue? When the time comes, it won¡¯t be a Hidden Class. I want to see where this vixen will put her face!¡± A pattern gradually appeared in the crystal. As the pattern gradually took shape, they finally saw clearly that it was a bow-shaped weapon. ¡°It looks like Catherine is going to develop into an Archer.¡± ¡°There doesn¡¯t seem to be any special Hidden Classes for Archers, right? The most common one is the Hunter. Looks like the Goddess is going to be disappointed.¡± ¡°I don¡¯t care. Even if Catherine is a Hunter, she¡¯s the best Hunter. I¡¯m willing to be her prey.¡± A student confessed his love, but the words he said made people speechless. ¡°Go away. Even if you want to become the prey of the Goddess, wait your turn.¡± ¡°What a joke. Our Goddess has so many prey that the line stretches all the way to the Simaya Trench. Who do you think you are?¡± An untimely female voice suddenly sounded. ¡°Are you guys alright? She¡¯s nothing but an ordinary Archer. Is it worth it for you guys to kneel and lick her boots?¡± The person who said this was a beautiful woman. However, the sharp and mean expression on her face destroyed her original beauty. ¡°That¡¯s right. Just now, someone was bragging shamelessly about Awakening a Hidden Class. Now, she¡¯s been slapped in the face.¡± These women were all from the Dennis family, and they were the ones who spoke ill of Catherine just now. ¡°Watch your mouths.¡± Doris¡¯s expression changed slightly. She wanted to teach them a lesson, but Abigail stopped her. ¡°Big Sister, why are you stopping me?¡± Abigail¡¯s expression was calm. ¡°There¡¯s no need to be angry over such a person. Isn¡¯t that lowering your status?¡± Doris stomped her feet, clearly displeased. Bella also agreed. ¡°Third Sister is still in the midst of changing her Class. We shouldn¡¯t ruin it for now. Moreover, I feel that according to Third Sister¡¯s personality, she would definitely want to resolve this matter personally.¡± The bow and arrow in the crystal slowly took shape. It was engraved with complicated patterns and patterns. It seemed to be some kind of totem and looked extremely mysterious. ¡°What a strange pattern. I don¡¯t think I¡¯ve seen it before.¡± They did not know if it was an illusion, but after looking at it for a long time, they actually felt dizzy. It was as if the pattern had come alive. It made people feel very uncomfortable. Only when they shifted their gazes did they feel much better. Victor King looked at the symbol on the bow and arrow. He seemed to have seen it somewhere before, but he could not remember where it was. However, he was certain that this special symbol came from ancient times and had been lost for a long time. Catherine¡¯s gaze fell on the girl who had just spoken. Her eyes were a little fierce, making people dare not look at her directly. Being stared at by her, the girls¡¯ voices became much softer. ¡°It¡¯s the truth, so why can¡¯t we say it?¡± The bow seemed to have sensed its master¡¯s emotions and began to hum and tremble. Even the patterns on it became more vivid. Catherine took out the bow and arrow from the crystal and placed both hands on the bow. Her movements were clean and neat, and she was very graceful. It actually added a different kind of elegance. There were no arrows, but the moment she nocked the bow, black fog appeared, and she accurately aimed at the girls. ¡°What are you trying to do?!¡± Catherine did not answer. Whoosh! The sound of sharp weapons piercing through the air could be heard. In the blink of an eye, the arrow formed by the black smoke accurately landed on their bodies. These girls wanted to dodge, but those arrows seemed to have eyes. The black fog instantly entered their bodies. One of them instantly knelt on the ground. ¡°God, please forgive me for my sins. I shouldn¡¯t have slandered Catherine and even maliciously slandered her behind her back. I even bribed someone to teach her a lesson¡­¡± She talked non-stop about her evil deeds, almost revealing her entire past. The people around her revealed disgusted expressions and instantly distanced themselves from these people as if they were avoiding some kind of ferocious beast. Chapter 7 Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation ¡°I thought she was just annoying with her words. I didn¡¯t expect her to be so vicious. She even wanted to harm Catherine in secret.¡± ¡°I feel disgusted when I think about how I used to be in the same classroom as this kind of person.¡± There were also people who were crying and laughing, crazily tearing their own hair. They were noble ladies, but now, they were no different from crazy women, constantly complaining that they were guilty. There were even people rolling on the ground. ¡°Oh, look at their behavior. They don¡¯t look like ladies at all. They¡¯re too ugly and terrifying.¡± Everyone gradually realized that the situation was not right. Even if they did not care about their image, it was impossible for them to do such a thing. It was simply a disgrace to the family. The other members of the Dennis family were already as black as charcoal. If they could, they would immediately draw a clear line between themselves and these people. Victor King was the first to react. He remembered the black fog that hit them earlier, and then he started to act strangely. ¡°Third Sister is the Cursed Archer God!¡± No wonder he felt that the symbols on the bow were familiar. Victor King had seen them in some ancient book. ¡°Cursed Archer God? What kind of Class is that?¡± Both Abigail and Bella looked confused. Viktor King was not the only one who realized this, even Dean Blake frowned and a magic staff appeared in his hand. He gently tapped the ground, and a white light quickly spread out with him as the center, enveloping the few female students who seemed to have gone crazy. With the Dean¡¯s reassurance, they finally calmed down. ¡°What happened to us just now?¡± ¡°Heavens, what a stupid thing have I done?¡± The few of them gradually regained their senses and recalled what they had done just now. The color of their faces instantly faded. ¡°Listen to me. That was an accident.¡± However, everyone only looked at them with disdain. ¡°We already know what you¡¯ve done, and you said it yourself. How can it be fake?¡± Their faces turned green as they glared fiercely at Catherine. ¡°It¡¯s you! You must have been playing tricks in the dark and controlling us to do those things, causing us to lose face in front of others. Your heart is really vicious.¡± Seeing that they were still trying to slander Catherine, Victor King laughed coldly. ¡°I think you¡¯re the ones who are vicious. You even want to lay your hands on my Third Sister.¡± Doris also came out to mock them. ¡°That¡¯s right. You don¡¯t have the ability, but you have jealousy. You¡¯re jealous of others and will do anything to frame them. You¡¯re really despicable. Do you think everyone is like you?¡± The girls blushed. Since they could not win, they turned their attention to the Dean. ¡°Dean Blake, please be reasonable. If it wasn¡¯t for Catherine¡¯s scheme, we wouldn¡¯t have been so humiliated. Besides, we can¡¯t hurt our classmates in the Academy.¡± Before Blake could speak, Catherine waved the bow and arrow in her hand. The deep light in her purple eyes was hard to look at. ¡°Do you want to try this again?¡± They were on guard and could not help but take a step back. They did not want to experience the state they were in just now again. The mysterious and powerful bow and arrow gave Catherine a sense of danger, but it was like a rose with thorns, adding to her charm and increasing her charm. ¡°We can¡¯t hurt classmates in the Academy, so how can I have hurt you just now?¡± Catherine would not leave any evidence for these people to catch. The arrow just now was incorporeal, and even if it hit someone, it would not cause any physical harm. That was indeed the case. There were no wounds on their bodies. However, the black fog was different. It could cause people to enter a negative state. Their actions just now were affected by the black fog. Even Blake could not say that Catherine was in the wrong. After all, these people asked for it. ¡°It¡¯s really embarrassing. If I were them, I would have dug a hole and buried myself long ago.¡± ¡°They still want the Dean to side with them? The Dean isn¡¯t the kind of person who¡¯s old and muddle-headed. He clearly saw who provoked first just now.¡± ¡°If you ask me, the Dean shouldn¡¯t have made a move at all. He should have let them continue to make a fool of themselves.¡± Everyone did not conceal their mocking voices at all. The girls could no longer stay and could only leave dejectedly. ¡°Then again, with such a powerful ability and that magical black fog just now, Catherine is definitely not as simple as a Hunter.¡± ¡°What kind of Class is this? I don¡¯t think I¡¯ve seen it before. It seems like it¡¯s another Hidden Class again.¡± ¡°This is too amazing! Another rare Hidden Class! The Victor family is too powerful!¡± Everyone was amazed. They discussed a long time but did not come to a conclusion. [Catherine of Acacia Academy, Awakened Combat Profession: Cursed Archer God] Looking at the golden words, everyone felt that their eyes were about to be blinded. ¡°As expected of Catherine. She¡¯s a Hidden Class.¡± Dean Blake and the old man sighed. ¡°I had a guess earlier, but I didn¡¯t expect it to be true. The Cursed Archer God hasn¡¯t appeared in my memory for a long time.¡± The arrows did not miss, and they could reduce the speed and damage of the enemy, causing the enemy to randomly fall into a negative state. ¡°I remember that there was an extremely powerful Cursed Archer God in history. He shot multiple arrows at once, causing the leaders of the demon race to kill each other. He won the battle even at a disadvantage in numbers.¡± The current Catherine had only just begun to shine, but one could already see how powerful she would be in the future. Catherine walked off the stage and was greeted with warm applause. ¡°Third Sister, the way you pulled the bow and shot the arrow just now was really cool. Let¡¯s see if those people still dare to speak ill of you behind your back in the future.¡± ¡°I just want to teach them a lesson.¡± Catherine could not hide the smug look on her face. Her purple eyes fell on Victor King, shining with mesmerizing light. ¡°How is it, Little Brother? I didn¡¯t embarrass you, did I?¡± Victor King smiled. ¡°Third Sister, what are you talking about? You¡¯ve always been my pride.¡± Doris deliberately put on a jealous expression. ¡°What you¡¯re saying doesn¡¯t count if I didn¡¯t get a Hidden Class.¡± Emma agreed and nodded. ¡°Then I¡¯m a little stressed too. ¡± Now, only the two of them had yet to awaken. ¡°No matter what Class it is, Fourth Sister and Fifth Sister are definitely the best. Of course, Big Sister, Second Sister, and Third Sister are also very good.¡± Victor King was very fair, and he made his sisters smile. Chapter 8 Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation Now, only Doris and Emma had yet to Awaken. Even though her sisters had Awakened Hidden Classes that were extremely lethal, Doris did not look stressed at all. She waved at everyone. Her hair was similar to Catherine¡¯s, but her eyes were black, like the starry night sky, flickering with mysterious colors. She smiled slightly, as if she had seen the entire magnificent universe. ¡°Wait for my good news.¡± This smile charmed countless students. ¡°God, how could there be such a cute person? I feel like my heart has been shot by the arrow of the God of Love, Cupid.¡± Doris did not have any offensive looks. She was the kind that everyone would like, regardless of gender or age. She was as cute as a neighbor¡¯s sister, giving people a sense of intimacy. ¡°I can guarantee that with the Goddess¡¯s affinity, perhaps the Healer Class is quite suitable for her.¡± ¡°Not necessarily. After all, the Awakened Classes for the previous sisters aren¡¯t very similar to themselves.¡± ¡°Who said so? I think they¡¯re very suitable for Abigail and Bella.¡± ¡°Goddess, don¡¯t feel pressured. Believe that you¡¯re the best.¡± Doris slowly placed her hand on the crystal. The transparent crystal suddenly darkened, as if transformed into a ball of thick ink, and slowly spread out. The others were a little puzzled. Usually, the color of spiritual energy would appear in accordance with the awakened Class. However, there was nothing now. The crystal seemed to be blocked by something. ¡°Did you see anything?¡± ¡°This aura is a little strange. I can¡¯t tell what it is.¡± Even Blake and the old man beside him were puzzled. In an instant, the sky darkened a little. This phenomenon attracted everyone¡¯s attention. ¡°Why is the sky so dark all of a sudden?¡± Abigail looked up at the sky and frowned. ¡°I feel an extremely powerful and cold aura.¡± Sister Bella also nodded. ¡°The elements in the air suddenly tell me that this aura is not simple.¡± Bella was a Full-Elemental Mage, and even she had said so. One could imagine how powerful this power was. ¡°Little Brother, what do you think of this situation?¡± Everyone¡¯s eyes fell on Victor King. There was nothing they could do. He was a walking encyclopedia. Victor King was not sure either. After all, he was not a prophet who knew everything. However, his intuition told him that Doris had something to do with this. The sky was clear just a moment ago, but in the blink of an eye, the entire sky was covered by a black curtain. In the face of the unknown situation, most of the people¡¯s expressions were somewhat uneasy. ¡°I feel so depressed. I can¡¯t even breathe.¡± ¡°I don¡¯t know if it¡¯s my imagination, but I keep feeling a chill coming from behind, as if there¡¯s some danger hiding.¡± The others actually had the same feeling. It was really strange to the extreme. It was as if the Grim Reaper was waving his scythe and lurking in the dark, eyeing them covetously. He could come to reap their lives at any time. The unknown existence was the most terrifying. Compared to everyone¡¯s uneasiness, Doris, who was on the stage, was extremely calm. She even felt a sense of familiarity in her heart. There was a voice calling out in her mind. She stared at the crystal without blinking. In the depths of the ink, she could vaguely see a little cold light, like a sharp blade that broke through the darkness. The cold light appeared suddenly, making it almost impossible for people to look straight at it. What was that? Doris tried to reach out and almost thought she was holding a piece of ice. It turned out to be a crescent-shaped saber. The light that he saw just now was emitted from the saber. There was also a crescent-shaped pattern engraved on it, which complemented each other. The shape of the saber was so beautiful that it seemed to be a piece of art. Doris was delighted, as if it was made for her. The others also saw Doris¡¯s actions. When the saber appeared, everyone looked surprised. ¡°What a strange saber. I¡¯ve never seen such a shape before. Does anyone know what Class this is?¡± ¡°I¡¯ve never seen it before either. If I hadn¡¯t seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn¡¯t have believed that such a weapon existed.¡± Under the gloomy sky, Doris held the Silver Moon Saber in her hand. Her black pupils were like night, and when she looked at them, they felt a chill, which did not match her sweet appearance at all. This huge contrast added to the fatal attraction. It was like a blue flower blooming in the dark night, hidden and powerful. For a moment, everyone could not take their eyes off her. The danger she brought was different from Catherine¡¯s. It was fatal. Catherine could bring about a curse effect, but Doris could really kill people without them noticing. Victor King looked enlightened. ¡°Maybe¡­ I know what profession Fourth Sister Awakened.¡± ¡°Don¡¯t keep me in suspense,¡± Catherine said. ¡°Hurry up and tell me.¡± ¡°Fourth Sister awakened the Shadow Ranger.¡± ¡°Walking in the dark night, the darkness is her best cover. The moment you see the blade light, it¡¯s the moment your life passes away. The flowers of death bloom brilliantly in the shadows.¡± Victor King¡¯s voice was almost like a chant. His words were moving, but the content was terrifying. At the same time, familiar golden words appeared in front of everyone. [Acacia Academy, Doris, Awakened Combat Profession: Shadow Ranger] The crowd was in an uproar. ¡°Good heavens, another Hidden Class. The kind that I¡¯ve never even heard of.¡± ¡°Shadow Ranger? That sounds so cool. My Goddess actually awakened this Class.¡± Although it was a Combat-type Class, it was more like an assassin. Looking at Doris¡¯s sweet and cute appearance, no one would think that she was a silent assassin in the night. Catherine, on the other hand, looked interested. ¡°Fourth Sister¡¯s Class is so cool. In the future, one of us will shoot arrows and the other will reap lives. Our teamwork is flawless.¡± Just the Cursed Archer God alone was already extremely difficult to deal with. In addition, the Shadow Ranger was extremely stealthy. If one were to face these two in the future¡­ The scene was too beautiful to imagine. Everyone could not help but shiver. This would be considered hellish difficulty. ¡°The Goddess is too powerful. She has both beauty and strength. Looks like we¡¯ll have a few more powerful opponents in the future.¡± ¡°Who says so? I hope that in the future, I won¡¯t meet them in the Academy¡¯s competitions.¡± ¡°Forget it. Even if I lose to the Goddess, I¡¯m willing.¡± Chapter 9 Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation Emma was the youngest of the sisters. She took a deep breath and slowly walked to the Class Change Crystal. Among all the sisters, she was the only one with black hair and black eyes. Such pupils and hair color could not help but remind people of the mysterious ancient eastern country. She was like a dazzling black pearl that received everyone¡¯s attention. Coupled with her gentle personality, her popularity was on par with the others. As Emma went on stage, everyone¡¯s voices became much softer, as if they were afraid of disturbing this shy beauty. The first four sisters were all so outstanding. Emma could not help but worry. If the Class she awakened was not good or was not Hidden, would it not bring shame to the family? ¡°Fifth Sister, you can do it.¡± Victor King¡¯s voice came from below the stage. He smiled encouragingly, as if he had a special ability. Emma¡¯s nervous mood suddenly calmed down. Emma calmly placed her hand on the crystal. No matter what the result was, as the daughter of the Victor family, she could not show any fear. Her gaze was focused, and the divine color in her black pupils made people think of the mysterious Milky Way Galaxy. Soon, a white light was released from the crystal. ¡°White spiritual energy¡­ She must be a Healer, right?¡± ¡°It¡¯s very possible. I can feel the healing aura inside.¡± Just as everyone was guessing what Class Emma would awaken, the white light continued to spread and strengthen. In the end, it formed a huge pillar of light that connected the world. ¡°No, this energy is too powerful, but it doesn¡¯t seem overbearing. Instead, it has a power that can calm people¡¯s hearts.¡± As everyone knew, the stronger one was, the more pressure they gave everyone. For example, the few sisters before her. However, although the energy fluctuations emitted by Emma were strong, they gave everyone a very pleasant feeling. There was no harm. ¡°I feel an unprecedented peace in my heart.¡± Many of them were bathed in the light, and their expressions were extremely relaxed. It was as if they had returned to their infancy and thrown themselves into their mothers ¡®arms. ¡°It¡¯s so warm. It¡¯s even more comfortable than the hot spring water in Gryan.¡± Blake and the old man also sensed the magic of this light. The old man sighed. ¡°The Victor family is really amazing. Their daughters are all so outstanding, and their Awakened Classes are all Hidden Classes.¡± Blake nodded his head. After all, these people were all from Acacia Academy. As the Dean, he was also proud of them. Moreover, five of them were Hidden Classes, and it was something that was rarely seen in a hundred years. Even in the top few Academies on the continent, it was something that had never happened before. It was enough to be recorded in history. ¡°Such a powerful Holy Light will definitely alarm that person. I remember that even she didn¡¯t have such an aura.¡± ¡°Looks like there¡¯s another good seedling for the Church.¡± The two of them were much stronger than the others. They could tell at a glance that this white was not ordinary spiritual power. It was Holy Light. The others also started to realize it. ¡°It¡¯s actually Holy Light. But I¡¯ve never felt such a powerful force when I was worshipping in the Church.¡± ¡°Classes with Holy Light attributes should be quite strong, right?¡± Victor King stretched out his hand, and Holy Light poured down and wrapped around his fingertips. It was like its owner, treating Victor King very well. He did not know what Class Emma was, but he felt an unprecedented sense of holiness. Perhaps Emma¡¯s class was similar to Abigail¡¯s, leaning towards the legend type of Class. He had a vague guess in his heart. ¡°Look!¡± Someone exclaimed. Many feathers floated down from the sky, and at the same time, there was a faint chanting sound. A pair of transparent wings actually appeared behind Emma. Not only that, but even her pupils had become a faint golden color. Bathed in the Holy Light, she looked especially sacred and unbelievably beautiful. At the same time, people could not help but want to worship her. Everyone was stunned for a long time. The originally lively and noisy square instantly became quiet, as if loud words were offensive and blasphemous to Emma. After a long while, someone carefully asked, ¡°Is this an Angel?¡± Angels were creatures that only appeared in legends. Now, they had actually seen them with their own eyes. ¡°It¡¯s really an Angel! What kind of Class is this?!¡± ¡­ Michel Church. The huge cross in the center was pure and flawless, and there was a faint halo surrounding it. This was a sign that the power of faith had been gathered all year round. Standing on both sides were a few lifelike Angel statues, their faces full of pity. The praying old woman seemed to have sensed something. She suddenly raised her head and her gaze was shockingly fixed on the location of the Academy. She muttered to herself, ¡°I can feel the presence of God. Oh God, you finally heard the pious prayers of your servant. Have you answered me?¡± The old woman waved her hand, and Holy Light spread out. Then, it gradually became clear. What appeared was the scene of Emma¡¯s awakening! Her eyes instantly lit up. ¡°This is¨C¡± [Acacia Academy, Emma, Awakened Support Class: Holy Light Bishop] ¡°What kind of Class is a Holy Light Bishop? Why have I never heard of it before?¡± ¡°Oh my God, it¡¯s another Hidden among Hidden Classes. Just by looking at this name, you know how abnormal it is.¡± ¡°Could it be that Emma has the strength to become a Bishop in the future?¡± No one knew about this Class, but they could guess how powerful it was from the grand occasion and its name. ¡°Little Brother, do you know the Holy Light Bishop?¡± Victor King nodded in response to Abigail¡¯s question. ¡°If I¡¯m not mistaken, the position of the Holy Light Bishop is above all the other Bishops.¡± Hearing Victor King¡¯s words, everyone gasped. ¡°That¡¯s awesome.¡± In the Roland Continent, everyone had different beliefs. Some believed in the Beast God, while others believed in the Elf King. Without exception, the Church had the largest number of believers, and its audience area was also the most widespread, whether it was in Peg City or elsewhere. The strength of Michel Church in the city was something that even Blake had to be in awe of. It was enough to show that the position of the Church was very important. Moreover, there was a Bishop in every church, and his cultivation was unfathomable. However, now, Victor King told them that Emma¡¯s status was far higher than even those Bishops. It was unbelievable. ¡°The Holy Light Bishop is the incarnation of God!¡± Victor King¡¯s words were like thunder exploding in everyone¡¯s ears. Everyone was dumbfounded and thought that they were hallucinating. The incarnation of God! How was this possible? Chapter 10 Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation Was there a God in this world? Perhaps there was. History could be traced back to 100 or even 1,000 years ago. At that time, the continent was not like it was now. There were many myths and legends recorded in ancient books. At first, everyone thought that they were fabricated out of thin air, but later on, many things happened. Later generations could vaguely follow the traces that they had left in this world, which were collectively called ¡®Divine Traces¡¯. All kinds of signs once indicated that there were Gods in this world, but for some unknown reason, they suddenly disappeared. Some said that the Gods had fallen into a deep sleep, while others said that humans had done many evil things and angered the gods, so they no longer protected them. ¡± That¡¯s right. She is indeed the incarnation of a God.¡± An old voice echoed in the air above the Academy. An old woman appeared in front of everyone. Blake and the old man looked at each other. ¡°She came, as expected.¡± Even Cass had a respectful expression on his face. The old woman was the Bishop of Michel Church, Lady Amanda. She rarely appeared in front of people, only during the Church¡¯s ceremonies. She usually spent her time serving God and praying. She could be said to be the most devout believer. Blake had no choice but to welcome such a Big Shot personally. Even Cass had never received such treatment before. ¡°Bishop Amanda, why are you here?¡± Most people had never seen Amanda¡¯s true appearance, so they did not know her identity. The students were discussing among themselves. ¡°Who is this lady? Why does the Dean place so much importance on her?¡± ¡°That¡¯s right. You see, Master Cass is also very respectful to her.¡± ¡°Wait a minute. Her clothes look familiar. Isn¡¯t that the attire of clergy in the church? And only Bishops can wear it.¡± There were very few people who could make the Dean revere them, not to mention that Cass was also the same. The old woman¡¯s identity was obvious, but everyone was shocked. Amanda nodded at Blake and Cass as a greeting. Such an action would be highly impolite or even contemptuous if it were anyone else, but she had the right to do so. However, she bowed respectfully to Emma and crossed her hands in front of her chest. This was the highest etiquette in the Church. ¡°I¡¯ve finally waited for you, God¡¯s Incarnation. Guide the lost lambs to the other side of Heaven.¡± The entire place was instantly silent, as if the world had become a fantasy. Amanda was the Bishop of Michel Church, someone whom even Blake and Cass had to revere. Yet, she was respectfully bowing to a student who had just Awakened her Class. Other than Blake and the others who felt that it was only natural, the other students were dumbfounded. Even Emma was a little scared. After all, she had never seen such a big scene. If those believers saw this, they would be flabbergasted. ¡°Bishop Amanda, what do you mean?¡± The others did not understand, but Victor King understood. He walked up and explained in a low voice. ¡°Among these clergymen, God is the supreme existence, not to mention that you are now the incarnation of God. Even if you are an infant, these Bishops would not dare to be rude.¡± There was no exaggeration in his words. According to Victor King¡¯s understanding, what he knew was only one-sided. The Holy Light Bishop had a deeper meaning in the Church. In short, no matter where she was, she could do whatever he wanted. After all, she was God¡¯s Incarnation. If any clergy dared to disobey, it would be blasphemy! The crime of betraying God was very serious. He would be hunted down by all the Churches. Even though Victor King spoke softly, Amanda still heard him. After all, her level and cultivation were remarkable. She nodded kindly. ¡°That¡¯s right, he¡¯s right. I can¡¯t remember how long it has been since God descended again. Maybe it¡¯s been a hundred years, maybe a thousand years.¡± Amanda looked at Emma, her eyes filled with passion and excitement. ¡°Your appearance proves that God hasn¡¯t completely forgotten us.¡± Someone once said that the clergymen in the Church were the closest to God, and there was some truth to this. ¡°Esteemed Miss Emma, I¡¯ve already reported this matter to the higher-ups. As the only incarnation of God, you will definitely receive the best training and complete the glorious mission that God has given you. You will lead us to glory.¡± Amanda felt a little guilty. ¡°Please forgive my rashness. If I wasn¡¯t in a hurry and wanted to see you, I would have welcomed you with even grander treatment.¡± Emma did not know what to do when faced with Amanda¡¯s enthusiasm. She subconsciously looked at Victor King, who was beside her, as if he could sense her uneasiness and nervousness. Victor King held her hands, and it felt like a warm current was flowing through them. She wondered if it was because of Emma. Just like Bella, she refused without hesitation. ¡°Bishop Amanda, thank you for your kindness, but I still need to consider it. After all, I still have a younger brother who hasn¡¯t Awakened his Class.¡± Cass, who was next to him, had a rather emotional expression. It was as if he had seen his past self in Amanda. Earlier, Bella had also answered him in the same way. Even a figure like the Bishop had to wait. Not only did Amanda not get angry, but she was flattered by Emma¡¯s tone. ¡°You don¡¯t have to be so polite. We respect all your decisions, but we still have to tell you that only the Church will be your final destination.¡± Doris and Catherine did not like restrictions. They always felt that it would be troublesome to enter the Church, and they would not be as free as before. ¡°People with our personalities will probably suffocate to death in the Church, but Fifth Sister is different.¡± ¡°That¡¯s right. The freedom of the vast sky is more suitable for us.¡± Emma had a gentle personality and was content with everything. Even if she was in the Church, they believed she would be able to live well, not to mention her status. Armand did not ask for much. ¡°I hope you can consider it. No matter what, the doors of Michel Church will always be open for you.¡± She believed that Emma would still choose the Church in the end because the Class of Holy Light Bishop was different from other Classes. In the end, only the Church could be the final destination. ¡°I didn¡¯t expect that my Goddess¡¯s Class would be so noble. Looks like I¡¯ll have to go to the Church to pray more in the future.¡± ¡°Stop dreaming. Do you think you can just enter the Church anytime you want?¡± ¡°I announce that from today onwards, I will change my faith and wholeheartedly believe in my Goddess!¡± Chapter 11 Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation Victor King was the last to go on stage. The first five sisters had all awakened powerful Hidden Classes, and Abigail and Emma were legendary existences. It was impossible for him not to be nervous, but he looked very calm. As the only male of the Victor family, he had to admit that his appearance was top-notch. He had light brown hair and amber eyes, like Apollo in the myths. He did not look like his five sisters at all. However, it did not affect his charm. When he went on stage, many female students shouted his name. ¡°I wonder what Class Victor King will awaken.¡± ¡°Needless to say, it¡¯ll be a Hidden Class too. The Victor family has really stolen the limelight this time. All their six children have Hidden Classes. It¡¯s enough to be recorded in the history of Peg City.¡± Hidden Classes were not common occurrences, and they could be seen just anywhere. Among the thousands of students in Acacia Academy, only 50 or so had Awakened their Hidden Classes, and the Victor family had six of them. One could imagine just how slim the probability of this was. Moreover, their Classes were all extraordinary. It was hard not to sigh with emotion. It was clearly their first Awakening, but how could these few people be so outstanding? ¡°But you can¡¯t say that. If it¡¯s not Hidden, wouldn¡¯t it be a joke?¡± Victor King was the heir of the Victor family. His older sisters were all so outstanding. If his Awakened Class was not Hidden, he would not be able to make his subordinates submit to him. Therefore, no matter how one looked at it, his Class had to be Hidden. ¡°Little Brother, you can do it.¡± The five sisters were cheering for Victor King. When the other students in the Academy saw this, they once again revealed envious and jealous expressions. ¡°If only the Goddess could cheer for me, I would be willing to die immediately.¡± ¡°My request is not much. As long as the Goddess can look at me, I¡¯ll be satisfied.¡± Doris was a little worried. ¡°Little Brother is under a lot of pressure.¡± Bella smiled and teased, her words revealing her affirmation of Victor King¡¯s strength. ¡°It can¡¯t be helped. It¡¯s our fault for being too outstanding, but I believe that he will be stronger than us.¡± ¡°Little Brother has always been very opinionated since he was young. He¡¯s not the kind of person who hides behind us.¡± Victor King might be young, but his sisters all respected him. Sometimes, they would even listen to Victor King¡¯s opinions. Everyone was very confident in Victor King. Even he thought the same way. After all, they were from the same family, so it should not be too bad. Victor King placed his hand on the crystal. The moment he touched it, the entire crystal burst out with a huge light. The surging spiritual energy was like a mountain and sea, crushing over everyone¡¯s heads. Waves of spiritual power came one after another, and even the color of the sky became darker. The wind and clouds seemed to indicate something. In that instant, everyone¡¯s eyes were dazed, even the old man beside Blake and Amanda had similar reactions. ¡°What kind of aura is this? I¡¯ve never felt it before.¡± ¡°There seems to be an ancient power that makes people feel fear from the bottom of their hearts.¡± Even though no one had any recollection of such an existence, the instinct engraved in their blood made them feel awe. Needless to say, the students were dazed and dazed. It took them a long time to recover. ¡°Oh my god, what kind of Class is this? It¡¯s too terrifying.¡± ¡°Just now, I actually felt like I was suffocating. For a moment, I even saw God waving at me.¡± ¡°This is too scary. Victor King must be another super Hidden Class.¡± The crowd discussed animatedly. Suddenly, she heard someone exclaim, ¡°Oh my God, look! What is that?¡± A huge vortex appeared above the Academy. The dark color was like a black hole. At first glance, it looked like a pair of eyes that were silently watching everyone. They could not help but shiver. They actually felt as if their entire bodies had been seen through and there was nowhere to hide. Victor King had created a huge commotion. The entire Academy was within the range of the black hole. This strange scene also attracted the attention of all parties in Peg City. ¡°There¡¯s actually a black hole above Acacia Academy. What¡¯s going on over there?¡± ¡°I heard that today is the day the students Awaken their Classes. Could it be that the Awakening caused a commotion?¡± ¡°That¡¯s too terrifying. Only a Fourth Transition level 100 expert can create such a commotion. How can it be a student who has just Awakened a Class?¡± Everyone found it unbelievable and sent many people to the Academy to inquire about the news. No one knew what this vortex was for, so they did not dare to act rashly. The aura emitted from it was unfathomable. There were some brave ones who released their spiritual energy to probe, but before they could get close, their spiritual energy was dissolved and dissipated in the air. Such terrifying strength once again made everyone dumbfounded, and they did not dare to act rashly. ¡°I¡¯ve never seen such a scene since I was born. It¡¯s unbelievable.¡± If someone from a few hundred years ago was here, they would definitely realize that this vortex was somewhat similar to the one that the game had descended into the world. Everyone was discussing the existence of the vortex, but they were certain that it was created by Victor King. What kind of Class could have such power? Everyone looked at it in awe for a long time, but they could not find any clues. The spiritual energy tide was still surging non-stop, without any signs of stopping. However, they had no clue at all. Everyone found that although the vortex was huge, it was not dangerous, so they gradually relaxed. Blake frowned slightly. ¡°This is strange. According to this time, the Class Change Crystal should have detected it. Why hasn¡¯t there been any movement yet?¡± Even the old man and Cass were puzzled. ¡°Yeah, this has never happened before.¡± Even powerful and mysterious Classes like Abigail and Emma did not take so long. ¡°Could it be that the Class Change Crystal can¡¯t detect it?¡± someone could not help but joke. ¡°How is this possible? There¡¯s no Class that can¡¯t be detected by the Class Change Crystal.¡± Usually, there would be something accompanying an Awakening, such as Abigail¡¯s dragon shadow and Bella¡¯s elemental power. However, when it came to Victor King, other than the surging energy, there was no other information. Chapter 12 Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation Everyone was anxiously waiting for the final result, but the Class Change Crystal seemed to be joking with everyone, and nothing appeared for a long time. Abigail frowned. ¡°Will there be any problems?¡± Bella shook her head subconsciously. ¡°That¡¯s impossible. Such a powerful aura shocked even us. There shouldn¡¯t be any problems.¡± ¡°Maybe it¡¯s because of the uniqueness of Little Brother¡¯s Class?¡± Catherine guessed. ¡°Let¡¯s not worry here. Just wait for the results quietly.¡± Although she said that, she felt that something would go wrong. Just as everyone was discussing animatedly and their emotions were at their peak, the faint golden words finally appeared in front of everyone. ¡°Look, it¡¯s finally out!¡± ¡°What kind of Hidden Class is it?¡± Everyone looked over with anticipation and respect. [Acacia Academy, Victor King, Awakened Class: Bard] For a moment, the bustling square was extremely quiet. It was so quiet that one could even hear the sound of a pin dropping. Some people even rubbed their eyes, thinking that they were hallucinating. ¡°Bard? How can he be a Bard?!¡± Everyone was stunned. Their mouths were so wide that they could almost stuff an egg into them. After a short silence, the crowd was in an uproar. ¡°This is the first time I¡¯ve seen someone Awaken the Bard Class.¡± Everyone was shocked and in disbelief, but there was no respect from before. ¡°What¡¯s going on? It made a huge commotion earlier, and this is the result? Is there really something wrong with the Class Change Crystal?¡± ¡°Victor King is a kid from the Victor family, right? The first five sisters Awakened extraordinary Hidden Classes. How did he become a Bard?¡± ¡°From your tone, it doesn¡¯t sound good to be a Bard. But I¡¯ve never heard of this Class. Can someone explain it?¡± ¡°You actually don¡¯t know? Bards are the most useless Class. Just from the name, you can tell that they can¡¯t fight or support.¡± ¡°We haven¡¯t seen this Class for a long time. We thought it was too useless and was deleted. I didn¡¯t expect it to appear on Victor King.¡± Everyone could not help but look sympathetic. No one noticed that the light on the crystal was flickering crazily. It seemed that it could not withstand the huge pressure and finally dimmed. Inside the crystal, a tiny crack spread like a spider web. It was impossible to see with the naked eye. One had to know that the Class Change Crystal was the hardest item. Even a Fifth Transition level 100 player would find it difficult to leave a mark on it, let alone crack it. It was simply impossible. Victor King¡¯s expression was a little gloomy. It would be a lie to say that he was not disappointed. After all, his sisters were all outstanding, but he quickly adjusted himself. He did not believe that with the amount of knowledge stored in his brain, even if he was a Bard, he would not be inferior to others. This time, even Dean Blake comforted him, ¡°Every Class has its own special meaning. Don¡¯t be discouraged. You will definitely find your own direction.¡± Firstly, it was because Victor King was too unlucky, and secondly, it was because of his sisters. ¡°Thank you, Dean,¡± Victor King said without a hint of hesitation. Blake nodded in admiration when he saw that he was not affected by his Class at all. On the other hand, the sisters felt that it was a little unfair to Victor King. Abigail stepped forward and gave him a big hug. ¡°Why don¡¯t we do another test? There must be something wrong with this broken crystal.¡± Abigail had unknowingly revealed the truth. Their family¡¯s Little Brother was the strongest, so there would definitely be no problem. Even if there was, it would only be because of the Class Change Crystal. Victor King did not know whether to laugh or cry. ¡°Sis, you shouldn¡¯t joke around.¡± He did not know if it was his imagination, but the moment he touched his sister¡¯s soft body, the warm feeling in his body became even more obvious. Victor King did not even know what was going on. Bella also comforted him. She was worried that Victor King would not be able to accept such an ending. ¡°Little Brother, don¡¯t be sad. It¡¯s fine even if you¡¯re a Bard.¡± Catherine and Doris were also worried, but they were hesitant to speak, afraid that they might accidentally say something wrong and provoke Victor King. Victor King was very touched by the concern of his five sisters. ¡°Don¡¯t worry, Sisters. I¡¯m not that weak.¡± Victor King did not want his sisters to worry, so he said that. In fact, he felt a little helpless. It was as if God had played a joke on him. Not only did he close the door, but he did not even leave a crack in the window. It was as if God had simply picked a Class and sent him away. However, if he was like everyone else, not to mention having a Hidden Class, even if he was just an ordinary one, he would be satisfied. Bards were almost universally recognized as trash. If the five sisters¡¯ Classes were the like the light of the mighty sun, then his Class was not even considered a little firefly. When he returned to the family, who knew how much gossip those old fellows would say? The Bard Class was like a show. It had no attack power or support abilities. As the name suggested, it was like a musician wandering around and chanting meaningless poems and singing songs. Many people did not know what this Class was used for, but everyone recognized it as a trash Class. Some people even said that it was better not to Awaken than to Awaken the Bard Class. There were very few records about Bards, just a few words, even less than Hidden Classes. This was because extremely few people Awakened the Bard Class. Victor King did not know whether to laugh or cry. It must have been karma that was accumulated over several lifetimes for him to Awaken such a Class. He had never heard of how much a Bard could stir up. Ever since the game had merged with the real world, mainlanders who had reached the age of 18 could Awaken various Classes. After changing Classes, they would be digitized like a video game. Not only would they have a data and information panel, but they would also have a backpack slot. Everything was like playing a game. People could farm monsters to level up, explore Secret Realms, and obtain all kinds of equipment. All Classes, be it ordinary, Hidden, or even legendary, could go through a ¡®Transition¡¯ once they reached level 50. After completing the First Transition mission, they could learn even higher-level skills. Level 100 was the Second Transition, level 150 was the Third Transition, level 200 was the Fourth Transition, and so on. However, in the entire continent, those who had reached the Third Transition were already experts. There were very few people who had reached the Fourth Transition, and there was only a handful who had reached the Fifth Transition. They were almost at the top. The biggest benefit of Class Transition was that one could learn higher skills and obtain better attributes. Once one could not Transition, it meant that they would be stuck. No one knew what the Bard Class looked like after the First Transition because no one had ever seen a Bard in action before. In fact, because it was too trashy, some people even said that it was a cursed Class. Chapter 13 Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation [Name: Victor King] [Class: Bard] [Level: Level 0] [Constitution: Level 10] [Spiritual Power: Level 10] [Strength: Level 10] [Spirit: Level 10] [Agility: Level 10] [Resistance: Level 10] [Luck: 999] [Free Attribute Points: Level 10] [Skills unavailable] Victor King opened his attribute panel, wanting to understand his class. Similar to everyone else, the initial interface had his stats mostly at level 10. However, the luck column made his eyes widen, thinking that he was hallucinating. ¡°Am I seeing things?¡± In a situation where everything was 10, his luck was actually 999! When luck value appeared, no one paid much attention to it. They thought that this value was useless, and they had forgotten about adding points to it. It was only until someone accidentally added the wrong points to luck that they realized the magic. Regardless of whether it was grinding monsters or exploring Secret Realms, the chances of dropping equipment were higher for those with high luck. It was said that they could also drop equipment with good attributes. Similarly, those with low luck would not be able to drop a single piece of equipment even after killing a hundred monsters and exploring a hundred Secret Realms. It could be said that their faces were extremely dark. From then on, when everyone increased their attribute points, they would also pay attention to their luck value, in case it was too low and they could not get equipment. However, according to what Victor King knew, most of them had a starting value of 10, but luck was different. Usually, luck¡¯s starting value was very low, and the highest was only 8. However, his 999 looked like a bug. It was too heaven-defying. If he did not know that the interface would not show any errors, he would have thought that it was fake. ¡°It seems that God saw that I was too unlucky to Awaken such a Class, so he gave me high luck value as compensation.¡± For Victor King, this was both lucky and unlucky. He rubbed his chin. If the news of his luck value reaching 999 was released, everyone on the continent would probably go crazy over it. According to the current situation, the person with the highest luck value on the entire continent was only around 90. He did not even surpass 100. His number was really too scary. Victor King did not plan to tell anyone else about this, not even his five sisters. It was not because he did not trust them, but because he felt that 999 luck points was unbelievable. It was like a dream. From the corner of his eye, he glanced at the backpack compartment. He thought that there was nothing inside, but he did not expect a flash of light to attract his attention. It was a ring. Logically speaking, the backpack should be empty. After Awakening a Class, the backpack slot would also be opened. It had just been digitized, so there should not be anything inside. How could there be a ring inside? ¡°This is really strange.¡± Victor King checked the information of the ring immediately. [Weapon: Ring of Immortality] [Rarity: Gold] [Level: Level 1, can grow] [Attribute: All attributes of the wearer +10 (can grow)] [Skill: The wearer can disguise as another Class, no one can see through it.] After reading the information on the ring, Victor King was dumbfounded and could not believe it. The quality of all the equipment was, from low to high, White, Green, Blue, Purple, Orange, Red, and Gold. Purple was already extremely rare, let alone Orange. Almost no one had seen Red equipment before, so there was no need to mention Gold equipment. It was a legendary divine equipment. Now, there was such a divine ring lying in his backpack. Gold equipment was the most top-tier equipment, and it was known as the existence of godly equipment. However, in reality, no one had ever seen it before. Even the number of people who owned Orange equipment could be counted on one¡¯s fingers. As for Red equipment, only the top people in the continent could have it. He didn¡¯t expect that he would obtain a piece of divine equipment just after Awakening. If news of this spread, who knew how many people would covet it? Perhaps the entire continent would come to hunt him down. The key was that this skill was simply tailor-made for him. Victor King had Awakened a useless Class like the Bard, but after wearing the ring, he could disguise himself as another Class. Could he also use the skills of other Classes? Victor King¡¯s heart started to beat faster. If that was the case, it would be too unbelievable. The most important thing was that this ring could grow. Whether it was attributes or skills, there was a lot of room for growth. It had unimaginable potential and might even change in the future. That kind of change would only make him stronger. Victor King was excited when he thought of this. ¡°I knew God wouldn¡¯t be so cold. Although the door was closed, he opened the window for me.¡± Victor King was a little disappointed at first. After all, he had Awakened the Bard Class. But now, not only did he have 999 luck points, but he also obtained such a heaven-defying godly ring. At least he could make up for the shortcomings of his own Class. ¡°No matter what it is, I can¡¯t expose it. Luck value can¡¯t be stolen, but divine equipment can be stolen.¡± There was no divine equipment in the entire continent, but Victor King had one. Even if his five sisters were all powerful Hidden Classes, they probably would not be able to protect this ring. Although the five older sisters¡¯ occupations seemed powerful, they were nothing to those experts. After all, they had not grown up yet and were not a threat. Perhaps the entire Victor family would be wiped out because of this. This was definitely not a joke. After all, a single piece of Orange equipment was enough to make many people go crazy, not to mention this kind of divine equipment. Before he could protect himself, he had to keep a low profile. Seeing that Victor King was silent, the sisters thought that he was still in shock. Bella comforted him softly. Her gentle voice was like a trickle of water. ¡°Don¡¯t be too sad. Even if the Bard Class really can¡¯t do much, we will still help you.¡± Doris nodded. ¡°Yeah, we¡¯re still here if things don¡¯t go well. Basically, we won¡¯t let anyone bully you so easily.¡± ¡°With your brain, it doesn¡¯t matter if you don¡¯t rely on your Class.¡± The five sisters comforted him. When the others heard this, they could not help but shake their heads, feeling sorry for Victor King. ¡°I thought I would be able to see the glory of six Hidden Classes. I was thinking too much. How could such a thing happen?¡± ¡°The only son, and the heir of the family¡­ Who would have thought that he Awakened a Bard Class. God must be joking with the Victor family.¡± ¡°The good luck of the Victor family has come to an abrupt end.¡± ¡°Bards are destined to be downtrodden. It¡¯s better to be an ordinary person.¡± Chapter 14 Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation ¡°How pitiful. You¡¯re actually a Bard. If I were you, I would find a place to hide now.¡± A student suddenly spoke. His name was Clayon, and he had some grudges against Victor King. He had never gotten along well with him, and now that he saw such a good opportunity, he immediately began to mock him. No matter what Victor King¡¯s Awakened Class was, he was still their younger brother. The sisters naturally protected him. Bella glanced at him coldly, and the elemental power in the air sensed the displeasure of its master and instantly went berserk. ¡°Who do you think you are? How dare you speak in front of us?¡± The words spoken by the gentlest person were the most ruthless. Even the originally gentle wind element was like a blade scraping against his face. It was hard to believe that it had such great power. Clayon also felt the pressure in the air, not to mention the other four who were eyeing him. Catherine smiled faintly. ¡°Kid, I didn¡¯t hear you clearly. Repeat what you said just now.¡± Doris and Emma were smiling too, but their smiles did not reach their eyes. The voices of the people around them became much softer. ¡°This is the first time I¡¯ve seen the Goddesses so angry. It¡¯s a little scary.¡± ¡°Isn¡¯t that so? Even the gentlest Bella is angry. Clayon is really amazing. He offended the five future Big Shots with just one sentence.¡± Clayon looked at Victor King¡¯s five sisters warily. He was a little indignant. Victor King was already in such a state, yet there were still people protecting him. ¡°Fighting is forbidden in the Academy. Do you want to be expelled?¡± These people were not to be trifled with. Abigail had the dragon¡¯s protection, Bella was favored by Mage Cass, Emma had Amanda in pursuit, and there was no need to mention Catherine and Doris. If the five of them were to attack together, Clayon would probably be beaten to a pulp. However, fighting was not allowed in the Academy, which was why he had nothing to fear. Besides, Dean Blake was here. Even if the five sisters were angry, they could not do anything. Doris was so angry that her face turned red when she saw Clayon¡¯s shameless appearance. She could not help but want to attack, but Abigail stopped her. ¡°Don¡¯t be rash. He¡¯s right. Fighting is forbidden in the Academy.¡± ¡°Big Sis!¡± The other sisters looked at Abigail in disbelief, as if they did not understand why she was speaking up for Clayon. Clayon was even more pleased with himself. ¡°It seems like there are still a few people in the Victor family who know right from wrong.¡± Abigail looked at him coldly and suddenly pulled out the heavy sword in her hand. Even her beautiful eyes were tainted with coldness. ¡°Although fighting is not allowed, you can challenge me.¡± ¡°Please bear witness to my challenge to Clayon. No one will be able to escape unscathed after humiliating Victor King!¡± Abigail¡¯s voice was firm and powerful. The sword in her hand was so sharp that no one dared to look at it directly, especially Clayon. The smile on his face slowly froze. He could feel the power of the sword. It was definitely not something he could fight against now. Although both of them had just Awakened, the Class he had was just an ordinary Melee Warrior, which was completely incomparable to Abigail. Although challenges had restrictions and limitations, there were still cases where a person accidentally lost his hand, injured his arm or leg, and became permanently disabled. After what she said to Victor King, even a fool would know that Abigail would not let him off easily. ¡°Why not? Weren¡¯t you quite eloquent just now?¡± ¡°Yeah, accept the Goddess¡¯s challenge. Others don¡¯t have the chance to have this honor. You better cherish it.¡± The crowd, who were watching the show, kept jeering. A layer of sweat gradually appeared on Clayon¡¯s forehead, and his face gradually turned pale. He knew that he could not accept this challenge. If she meant him harm, he was basically done for. However, Abigail was extremely bold. This also meant that in the face of absolute strength, everything was fleeting clouds. Clayon looked at the other students in the Academy, gritted his teeth, and ran away without looking back, leaving behind a wave of boos. ¡°What kind of person is this? It¡¯s fine if he doesn¡¯t dare to accept the challenge, but he¡¯s actually running away. He¡¯s really embarrassing us men.¡± ¡°You were still eloquent just now, but now you don¡¯t dare to say anything. Clayon is bullying the weak and fearing the strong.¡± ¡°He didn¡¯t dare to accept the challenge after seeing that the Goddess is a Hidden Class. At least this kid knows his limits. Otherwise, it would be even more embarrassing if she beat him down later.¡± Abigail slowly put away her sword. ¡°I thought this kid was strong. He¡¯s just a coward.¡± The others surrounded her excitedly. Bella could not help but say, ¡°Sister, you were so cool just now, especially when you pointed your sword at Clayon.¡± Catherine looked at Clayon¡¯s back as he ran away and said coldly, ¡°Big Sister is still the best. If it were me, I would have already slashed at him with my sword. Would I have given him any time to react?¡± Facing the protection of his five sisters, Victor King only felt warm in his heart. So what if he was a useless Class? He had 999 luck points and a divine equipment. He was not afraid of being unable to walk his own path. After what happened to Clayon, no one dared to say anything too harsh. After all, Victor King¡¯s Class was trash, but his five sisters were powerful and protective. They did not want to become the second Clayon. ¡°Don¡¯t take Clayon¡¯s words to heart. Don¡¯t be nervous or worried. We¡¯ll help you think of a way.¡± To be honest, when Victor King first Awakened this Class, he was a little depressed, but now he did not care at all. ¡°Don¡¯t worry, Big Sister. Don¡¯t worry about me. You guys are so amazing and outstanding that I don¡¯t even have to work hard. If anyone dares to bully me in the future, they¡¯ll have to get through you guys first. After all, I can rely on you all.¡± Victor King¡¯s words made the five sisters laugh. Seeing him like this, everyone felt relieved. Victor King looked quite optimistic, as long as he did not give up. ¡°Don¡¯t worry, with us here, no one will dare to bully you. Big Sister¡¯s sword is no joke.¡± ¡°Yeah, unless he wants to taste the power of all the elements.¡± ¡°Also, I¡¯ll add a few negative statuses to him.¡± The few sisters took turns expressing their opinions, and the hearts of the people around them turned cold. Just based on this attitude, no one would dare to bully Victor King in the future unless they were tired of living. The Dragon God Knight, the Cursed Archer God, and the Shadow Ranger were not to be trifled with. In the end, the Big Sister said, ¡°Alright, let¡¯s go level up first.¡± After the Class Awakening, they would be able to explore and train in the wild. There were already many students who wanted to go out and try their luck. The members of the Victor family were no exception. Chapter 15 Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation If they wanted to explore and level up in the wild, they still needed to be prepared. Otherwise, it would be very dangerous for people like them who had just Awakened their Class. Victor King and the others had already returned to the family. After discussing with Cass and Amanda, Bella and Emma expressed that they would still consider their offer. After all, they were not in a hurry. Whether it was the Mage Guild or the Church, they were both extremely powerful existences. Although joining them would give them great help and power, they would also be bound by the rules. They all loved freedom and did not like this kind of shackles, so they were not in a hurry to agree. Most importantly, they were worried about Victor King. Putting aside these factors, the most important thing was that they had to start improving their strength. With such a Hidden Class, they were destined to have an extraordinary future. If their strength could not be improved, they would become a joke to outsiders, right? The most important thing now was to learn basic skills. After Awakening successfully, everyone would obtain the corresponding basic Class skills according to their talent. Abigail might have one or two, but it did not mean that only these few skills could be used. It could be learned through Basic Skill Books. This also led to the price of all Skill Books skyrocketing after the Class Awakening day. It was even something that could not be bought with money. When Victor King and the others rushed over, they were told that they were out of stock. ¡°Looks like we¡¯re too late. We¡¯ve been to a few stores but there¡¯s no stock. I reckon all the Basic Skill Books have been bought.¡± ¡°Who is it? He¡¯s so fast. He didn¡¯t even give the others a chance.¡± As long as they had the conditions, no one wanted to fall behind others. The gap would only get bigger and bigger as they progressed. If they did not have the corresponding skills and equipment, they would not have any advantage whether they were fighting monsters or exploring Secret Realms. This was also the reason why everyone was rushing to buy it. There were too many monks and too little porridge. There were so many Awakened people who wanted to learn basic skills. Therefore, the Skill Books in the shops had long been sold out. In fact, they were even out of stock. The sisters were helpless. They wanted to see if they could find any Skill Books for Victor King to use. ¡°It¡¯s alright,¡± Victor King comforted. ¡°Those are just beginner Skill Books anyway. I might not be able to use them for my Class.¡± ¡°Forget it. I can¡¯t buy the Skill Book, but I should be able to get the equipment I ordered.¡± Not long after, the equipment that Abigail ordered arrived. These were the most basic White equipment. They were not expensive and the production cost was low. Although the attributes added were very little, it was better than nothing. Almost everyone who had Awakened their Class had one. After everything was ready, everyone was ready to go out and explore. The five sisters were already eager to give it a try. After all, they were all powerful Hidden Classes. It was a good time to test the strength of their Classes. ¡°But which place is more suitable for leveling up?¡± Victor King had already done his homework. After all, his nickname of ¡®Encyclopedia¡¯ was not just for show. Whether it was Classes or other information, as long as it was recorded, he had the information on his fingertips. Victor King thought for a moment and said, ¡°Why don¡¯t we go to the Misty Forest outside Peg City? The monsters there aren¡¯t high level, and the danger is relatively low. It¡¯s just suitable for us low-level people to practice.¡± Most importantly, the Misty Forest was close to the city area, so it must be convenient. The others did not object to Victor King¡¯s choice of location. Along the way, they saw many people heading toward the Misty Forest. They were probably going to level up and fight monsters. There were usually not many people in the Misty Forest. The most lively time was probably during the period when people just Awakened their Classes. Other than those who wanted to level up, there were also many people who wanted to trade. Victor King thought that they were early enough, but he did not expect someone to be earlier than them. ¡°Buying Skill Books, name your price.¡± ¡°I¡¯ll take any material. The price is absolutely fair. ¡± ¡°There aren¡¯t many spots for newbies to level up. Come quickly.¡± ¡°Is there anyone who wants to level up in a team? We¡¯re missing a Mage.¡± Sounds like these could be heard endlessly, causing the quiet Misty Forest to become bustling and lively. Doris and Emma were relatively young, and it was their first time seeing such a lively scene. They could not help but sigh.¡±There are so many people here.¡± Victor King explained, ¡°In the first few months after the Class Awakening, this kind of novice leveling area is the most lively. After that, it will calm down until a new batch of Class Awakened people arrives.¡± Some leveling areas did not have a level limit, but if the level difference was too high, there would be no EXP from fighting low-level monsters, and there would be no equipment drops. Therefore, most of the people who came here had just Awakened. Those with high levels were not excluded. They led those with low levels. Usually, whether it was fighting monsters or exploring Secret Realms, their speed was very fast. This was commonly known as ¡®level boosting¡¯. ¡°Let¡¯s hurry up. If we¡¯re late, we won¡¯t even be able to find a place to train.¡± They did not expect Victor King to be right. The people they saw just now were just the tip of the iceberg. When they walked in, they realized that there were more people than they had imagined. Bella could not help but sigh. ¡°There are probably more people than monsters.¡± There were only a few places that were not suitable for newbies to level up. If the level of the monsters was too high, the danger factor would increase. No one was willing to play with their lives. Although the game had merged with reality and many of them were digitized, there was only one life. It was not like the game where one could be resurrected after death. Even if one was the top expert in the continent, if one did not have heaven-defying pills or skills, they could not change the outcome of death. Therefore, everyone still cherished their lives. Catherine looked around. ¡°If I level up with these people, I¡¯m afraid it won¡¯t be very effective.¡± There were only so many monsters, and they had to respawn. They had just spawned, but they were already being snatched by several teams. At this speed, they probably wouldn¡¯t be able to level up much even if they stayed here for an entire day. Experience in the early stages was extremely important. This was a necessary condition to widen the gap between them and the others. ¡°Why don¡¯t we go to the next leveling area?¡± Victor King suggested. Now that everyone¡¯s level was 0, the novice leveling area was naturally overcrowded. However, if one¡¯s level was higher, one would not have such concerns and would not have to worry about stealing monsters. Doris was a little hesitant. ¡°But our level isn¡¯t high. Will it be dangerous?¡± Victor King understood her worries. It was good to be safe and stable, but sometimes, one had to consider the actual situation. ¡°All of you are Hidden Classes with strong combat power. Don¡¯t underestimate the initial skills. According to my judgment, it shouldn¡¯t be difficult for you to fight monsters above your level. Why don¡¯t you give it a try?¡± Chapter 16 Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation Victor King had done his homework on the various Classes. Hidden Classes had their own unique characteristics, and their attributes were much higher than normal Classes of the same level. Moreover, all five of his sisters were Hidden Classes, so it should not be a problem. Abigail nodded, agreeing with Victor King¡¯s words. ¡°What I said makes sense. We¡¯re all Hidden Classes, so what¡¯s there to be afraid of? Let¡¯s give it a try. If it really doesn¡¯t work, we¡¯ll just come back.¡± Other than Emma, the others were all powerful combat types. They just had to be careful. The group walked into the Misty Forest and immediately attracted the attention of many people. After all, this team consisted of a handsome man and beautiful women, especially the five girls. They were all extremely outstanding and had their own characteristics. It was difficult to ignore them. ¡°If I remember correctly, they seemed to have just arrived here. Why did they go in?¡± ¡°I think he¡¯s from Acacia Academy. I heard that this Academy has some super powerful Hidden Classes this year.¡± ¡°Hey, isn¡¯t that my Goddess Abigail? Did she level up so quickly?¡± Many people discussed this, but they quickly forgot about it. After all, the most important thing at hand was to grind monsters and level up. As Victor King and the others went deeper, the noise gradually decreased, which meant that they were far away from the crowd. At first, they were at the outer edge of the Misty Forest, and most of them were low-level monsters. The deeper they went, the higher the level of the monsters. For example, they were now in the range of the level 8 Earth Lone Wolf. This monster was relatively fast and could tear its enemies apart with its sharp claws. ¡°There are indeed fewer people here.¡± Compared to the leveling spot outside, there were still people farming monsters here. However, compared to the sea of people outside, there were not many people. ¡°These people are killing monsters so quickly. We¡¯ve only just changed our Classes and Awakened, but they¡¯re already so high-leveled?¡± Victor King and the others had just arrived when they saw a few Earth Lone Wolves being quickly taken care of. Doris took a few glances. The teams that were farming monsters were very efficient. It took about a few minutes to kill a batch of monsters. Victor King took a look and realized the trick. ¡°Of course they are fast, they are specialized in leveling. There are leveling maps for every stage, and it is a huge business.¡± Some special substitutes were even cultivated or recruited by the family. The purpose was to accompany the family members who had just Awakened their Class so that they could quickly fight monsters and level up. With such a condition, who would not want to level up quickly and walk in front of everyone? After all, the faster one leveled up, the stronger one would be, and the better resources one would obtain later on. Therefore, the level boosting industry came into being and was very popular. The sisters rarely paid attention to these things, so they were a little curious. Doris was even more surprised. ¡°If that¡¯s the case, they won¡¯t have much experience fighting monsters themselves and won¡¯t be able to level up. Isn¡¯t that a waste?¡± Victor King shook his head. ¡°Not everyone¡¯s Class is very good and has strong talent. Usually, most of the newbies who go for this kind of boosting service are useless. Even if they level up, it¡¯s a waste of time and resources. It¡¯s better to earn more money.¡± On this mainland, there were not only Awakened ones but also ordinary people. Everyone had a different way of living and walked their own path. ¡°For example, someone like me. Although I don¡¯t have much of a future, if I level up and get some resources, I might be able to become a newbie booster in the future and earn some money.¡± Victor King seemed to have thought of something and smiled self-deprecatingly. If he did not have such a high luck value and the existence of the divine ring, he might have really embarked on such a path in the future. In fact, if one had talent, who would be willing to give up the opportunity to climb up the ladder and switch to being a leveling agent if their Class was slightly good? In today¡¯s world, strength was respected. Without strength, it meant that one was inferior to others everywhere. One had to do things according to others¡¯ will and whims. They did not have their own lives in their own hands. Seeing Victor King like this, Abigail thought that he was sad about his Class. She quickly comforted him, ¡°Don¡¯t be discouraged, Little Brother. We¡¯ll help you think of a way.¡± Victor King shook his head. ¡°I¡¯m fine. You guys are here anyway. I¡¯ll just stand back.¡± ¡°Alright, let¡¯s get started. We can try to see if fighting monsters above our level can work.¡± Due to the small number of people and teams around, Victor King¡¯s group attracted a lot of attention as soon as they arrived. ¡°Oh my god, where did this person come from? He actually has five beautiful ladies accompanying him.¡± ¡°It¡¯s so infuriating. Why can¡¯t I see a single female in my team? This kid is good. He took five pretty ladies in one go.¡± ¡°Exactly. Those who don¡¯t know better would think that this kid is here to enjoy the scenery of so many beautiful women hugging each other.¡± Victor King¡¯s team was the most special one. After all, it was a group of five women and one man. Looking around, most of the people were male Class Awakened. It was not that there were no women, but there were fewer of them. Not to mention that these five people had such outstanding looks. ¡°They don¡¯t look like they can fight monsters and level up. I¡¯m afraid they¡¯re here to see the world and learn about life.¡± Everyone was amazed by Abigail and the others¡¯ looks, and they could not help but look down on them. Although looks could not be linked to strength, for people as good-looking as them, their Awakened professions were not usually very strong. Most of them were Support-type or Life-type. Even if they were Combat-type, their combat strength would not be too strong. One of the teams walked towards Victor King and the others. The man in the lead had a head full of blond hair and looked very wild. He carried a large sword on his shoulder and seemed to be a Warrior. His face was wild and unruly. He looked at the only man in the team with disdain. With Victor King¡¯s figure and clothes, he looked weak and could be lifted with one hand. Obviously, he did not take Victor King seriously. ¡°This is not a place for a Young Master like you.¡± Then, his gaze fell on the other sisters with surprise and admiration. ¡°Ladies, why don¡¯t you join my team? I guarantee that I can help you level up quickly. It¡¯s much better than following this pale boy.¡± Hearing his mockery and disdain for Victor King, the sisters¡¯ expressions turned ugly. They said coldly, ¡°No need.¡± However, the man continued to pester them. ¡°Don¡¯t be like this. It¡¯s so nice to fight monsters with us. You don¡¯t even have to do anything. You just have to watch from the side. I¡¯m a professional booster.¡± There were many people around him who jeered. ¡°That¡¯s right. Isn¡¯t it nice to lie down with us? Why do you have to suffer here? You might even encounter danger.¡± Chapter 17 Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation Even Bella, who had always been gentle, showed an impatient expression when faced with these people¡¯s pestering. A huge staff appeared in her hand. ¡°Oh, I didn¡¯t know that this beautiful lady is actually a Mage. It just so happens that we have a wind-water Dual-Elemental Mage on our team. We can let him guide you.¡± The man immediately revealed a proud expression. He thought that Bella would be tempted, but he did not expect them to be so indifferent. Bella¡¯s emerald-like eyes were a little distant. The other sisters were also speechless. Bella was a Full-Elemental Mage. What was there to show off in front of her? Moreover, as a Full-Elemental Mage, the number of her initial skills was several times more than others. Because her affinity with the nine elements was maxed out, all nine elements had corresponding skills. It could be said that she was extremely terrifying. Due to this high affinity, other Mages needed a certain amount of time to cast. This was also the fatal injury of the Mage Class. They had extremely high elemental damage, whether it was single target or group attacks, they were very powerful. However, once their enemy can get close to them, it was equivalent to being crippled. However, Bella did not have such concerns because her chanting time was very short. In the future, as her level increased, her casting time would continue to decrease. Bella slowly raised the staff in her hand, and her voice was like an oriole coming out of the valley as she began to chant. The monsters in the novice leveling area were all passive monsters, and their intelligence was not high, so they would not attack them. A gentle breeze blew from not far away, messing up Bella¡¯s hair beside her ears. She looked even more beautiful, and the man was a little stunned. Then, he revealed a look of understanding. ¡°So you¡¯re a Wind Mage. Your wind power is a little too weak. I¡¯m afraid it can¡¯t even hurt the fur of the Earth Lone Wolf.¡± As soon as he finished speaking, a gust of wind suddenly blew, directly flipping him to the ground. The originally harmless breeze instantly turned into countless wind blades and landed on the bodies of the wolves with lightning speed. They did not even have the chance to react before they became corpses. The commotion here attracted the attention of many people. They happened to see Bella¡¯s attack and could not come back to their senses for a long time. They thought that they were hallucinating. ¡°What happened? In the blink of an eye, these Earth Lone Wolves are all dead!¡± ¡°The speed of this instant kill is a little too fast. It¡¯s simply insane. It seems like we¡¯ve underestimated her. She¡¯s actually a Hidden expert.¡± ¡°Didn¡¯t you guys notice that her casting time was very short?¡± ¡°This level, this strength, she should be at least level 10 or above. She¡¯s probably a level booster. How could someone who had just Awakened come here to fight monsters?¡± The leveling teams felt like their worldview had been overturned. They could not imagine that Bella, who looked weak, was so powerful. There were also Mages in their team, but their casting time was much longer than Bella¡¯s. Especially the man who had hit on her earlier. A thin layer of sweat had already appeared on his forehead. He looked at Bella in fear and did not dare to say anything else. ¡°Yes, sorry to disturb you!¡± After saying this, he hurriedly ran away. His fleeing back seemed to be chased by a ghost. If that wind blade had landed on his body, he probably would not have been able to react. If he was lucky, even if he managed to dodge it, he would probably become crippled. Catherine could not help but laugh out loud. ¡°Second Sister, you scared him away with just one move.¡± Without the man¡¯s pestering, she felt that the world had become quiet. Doris¡¯s expression was cold. ¡°Second Sister, if I were you, I¡¯d teach him a lesson instead of scaring him. How dare he speak ill of Little Brother? He really thinks he¡¯s somebody great.¡± ¡°However, the move that Second Sister just showed is indeed something. You killed so many monsters in an instant with just one skill.¡± ¡°With Second Sister around, there¡¯s basically nothing for us to do.¡± [Congratulations to your party for killing the Earth Lone Wolf. You have received 60 experience points!] [Congratulations to your party for killing the Earth Lone Wolf. You have received 60 experience points!] Everyone received a system notification. Not to mention the others, even Victor King was a little surprised. He did not expect Bella to be able to kill these Earth Lone Wolves in an instant. He had guessed that Hidden Classes were stronger than ordinary Classes, but he did not expect them to be so abnormal. These Earth Lone Wolves were level 8, while Bella was level 0. However, she killed them in an instant. There was no way for them to fight back. The leveling teams were all stunned. They looked at them in surprise. Although they had many leveling agents here, they were not like Bella. With this ability, who would still be a level booster?! Bella looked at the staff and was a little surprised. ¡°I didn¡¯t expect the wind blades to be so lethal.¡± With Bella¡¯s stunning appearance, the others did not want to be outdone. Catherine took out a bow and arrow and aimed at one of the Earth Lone Wolves. The arrow was like a rainbow. They could hear the sound of a sharp weapon piercing through the air, and it hit the heart of the Earth Lone Wolf on the ground. [Congratulations to your party for killing the Earth Lone Wolf. You have received 60 experience points!] It was another fatal blow! Although she did not kill as many as Bella, the wolf was still insta-killed. Just as everyone was in shock, Catherine shot another arrow. However, this time, the arrow split into dozens of arrows in the air, falling like a meteor, dazzling everyone. By the time they reacted, there were several more corpses of Earth Lone Wolves on the ground. Each of them had an arrow stabbed into their hearts. 100 percent accuracy! Another abnormal accuracy. Catherine put down her bow and arrow, her face calm and composed. ¡°Fortunately, I have an AoE skill. Otherwise, I would have been defeated by Second Sister.¡± The system once again sounded out the notifications of kills. Soon, they found that their experience points were full. [Congratulations on leveling up] They thought that Bella was powerful enough, but they did not expect another one to appear. ¡°What Class is this? She doesn¡¯t look like an Archer Class that I know of.¡± ¡°I have a friend who is an Archer or something. This woman doesn¡¯t look like an Archer at all. The difference is too huge.¡± ¡°This team is too heaven-defying. The two of them are so powerful, and the others don¡¯t even need to fight. This is what it means to be a real boosting agent. Look at their speed and efficiency.¡± Many people looked at their own team¡¯s level booster and felt that there was such a big difference between them. In just a moment, the Earth Lone Wolves in the vicinity were all cleared! The monsters did not even have time to react after spawning. Bella and Catherine were too monstrous. They killed many monsters in one move, not leaving even a speck behind. Usually, when they finished killing more than ten monsters, the other side would respawn. They could avoid wasting time killing monsters in such a cycle. However, now, there were no monsters to fight. ¡°Who are they exactly? Are they really level boosters?¡± ¡°Damn, you must be joking. With such strength and standards, why would they even be level boosters?¡± Everyone was curious about their identities and discussed animatedly. Their expressions were no longer as contemptuous as before. After all, these people were not just for show. They could easily do things that even a level booster could not do. Chapter 18 Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation The others did not even have to do much to level up. Catherine¡¯s speed was faster than Bella¡¯s. After all, it took some time to cast a spell. Meanwhile, her bow and arrow were instant, but the damage between the two was almost the same. The monsters were almost all insta-killed. ¡°If Second Sister and Third Sister join forces, I¡¯m afraid we can quickly kill all the monsters in this area.¡± At this speed, it would not even take half an hour. ¡°At first, I thought that we¡¯d have some difficulty fighting monsters here. After all, we¡¯re fighting monsters of a higher level. Now it seems that we were thinking too much. Perhaps after leveling up a few more levels, we can go to a higher leveling point.¡± Everyone was paying attention to the commotion here and accidentally heard their conversation. They were instantly shocked. Could it be that their levels were not that high? They were actually fighting monsters above their level! The people around them once again had a new understanding of the freakish level of these people. With such strength, they could still fight monsters above their level. How was that fair?! Abigail wanted to make a move, but she was unlucky. Her two initial skills were both single-target attacks and were not suitable for group attacks. Although they dealt a lot of damage, it was unnecessary. Doris had the same experience as Abigail, and she could not help but sigh. ¡°I wanted to put on a show for everyone, but I¡¯d better seize the time to level up. I¡¯ll save it for next time.¡± Due to the special nature of Emma¡¯s Class, her initial skills were all biased toward support. Although there was an area of effect, the damage was not high. Therefore, the main damage output of the entire team was Bella and Catherine. When their skills were on cooldown, Abigail and Doris would make their move. Emma would be responsible for restoring their state and energy. It could be said that the division of labor was clear. A team with Melee, Mages, Archers, and even a Support¡­ It could be said to be a perfect team. The key was that they all had Hidden Classes, so the effect they could display was greater than expected. Victor King was the only one who was a backbencher. His sisters took care of him, so they controlled their strength and beat the monster to its last bit of health. They let Victor King finish off the last hit, so he could get more experience. Soon, there were many Earth Lone Wolf corpses on the ground. Suddenly, Victor King noticed something out of the corner of his eye. There was a ball of white light under the corpse of the Earth Lone Wolf, and his breathing stopped for half a beat. ¡°This is a Skill Book!¡± All monsters in the wild or Secret Realms would drop equipment and Skill Books, but usually, only Bosses would drop them. The chances of these monsters dropping a Skill Book were too small. Not to mention, it was almost impossible for Skill Books to drop in such low-level novice grinding areas. It was a bizarre thing that happened. The others also noticed the Skill Book and could not help but exclaim, ¡°Our luck is too good. Even a small monster like this can drop a Class Skill Book.¡± Even though the sisters did not know much about this kind of thing, they knew that the drop rate of a Class Skill Book was very low. ¡°It seems that the Goddess of Luck is still patronizing us.¡± Hearing this, Victor King could not help but think of his frighteningly high luck value. The Goddess of Luck did not just patronize him, she was basically living in his house. Emma said in surprise, ¡°It seems to be a beginner summoning spell.¡± Some Skill Books did not have Class requirements and could be learned by all Classes. However, the drop rate was so low that the sisters even began to wonder if the sun had risen from the west. ¡°Looks like Little Brother is really lucky. You should use this Skill Book.¡± His sister had powerful Class skills, so Victor King did not hold back. Summoning sounded good. The spell could summon some low-level monsters according to the user¡¯s strength. Although it was only a beginner skill, it was enough. [Beginner Summoning Spell successfully used] At this moment, an unfamiliar notification sounded in Victor King¡¯s mind. [Congratulations to the Host for successfully activating the Divine Summoning Spell] He thought he was hearing things, but when he looked at the skill bar, he realized that it was not a Beginner Summoning Spell, but a Divine Summoning Spell. What was going on? Victor King was completely dumbfounded. He had clearly learned the Basic Summoning Spell, so where did this Divine Summoning Spell come from? [Divine Summoning Spell: The cultivator will have a mysterious and powerful summoning power. You can summon a powerful creature to fight.] Victor King was even more surprised after reading the summoning spell¡¯s description. It was too heaven-defying. All summoning spells had one thing in common, and that was that the level of the summoned creature was not much different from the user¡¯s own level. Although there were occasional exceptions, they were definitely not like what was happening to him now, where his summoning directly reached the peak. ¡°Little Brother, do you want to try summoning and see if you can summon any monster babies?¡± Abigail¡¯s voice pulled Victor King back to reality. Victor King said. ¡°Forget it, even if I can summon a monster, its level won¡¯t be high. Let¡¯s not waste time.¡± He had yet to figure out what this Divine Summoning Spell was about, so he did not plan to use it easily. After all, he was outside and there were other leveling parties around him. None of the sisters had any doubts. ¡°You¡¯re right. Let¡¯s continue then.¡± Victor King had been thinking about this divine-tier summoning spell. Did it change because of his super-high luck? It seemed that he could only wait until there was no one around to test the effect of this skill. As they continued to grind monsters and level up, the men were a little distracted. A team had been observing them for a long time. In the end, they still walked over hesitantly. The man in the lead looked very gentlemanly. ¡°Sorry to disturb you. Are you here level boosting here?¡± This question echoed the thoughts of the other teams. However, due to the powerful strength that Bella and Catherine had displayed, they did not dare to disturb them. ¡°I¡¯m willing to hire you at a high price. You can name your conditions.¡± The man was very polite. When most people were wearing White equipment, he actually had a piece of Green equipment. Whether it was dropped by monsters or bought by him, it was enough to show that his family background was extraordinary. No wonder he had such courage to say such words. Abigail did not know whether to laugh or cry. She did not expect that they would be mistaken for leveling agents. It was normal for the others to have such thoughts. After all, the way they were acting was too fierce. Even professional boosters were not like this. This was especially true for those teams that hired level boosters at a high price to help them train. Without comparison, there would be no harm. The difference was too great. While they were killing a few monsters, Victor King¡¯s team had already killed an entire wave of monsters. Most importantly, beauty was justice. With powerful strength and extraordinary looks, they were extremely pleasing to the eye. To be able to admire beautiful women while they were being boosted¡­ It would be like living at the peak of their lives. Seeing that Victor King was the only male on the team, they were almost tired of saying the word ¡®envy¡¯. Chapter 19 Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation Abigail shook her head and said in a distant tone, ¡°We¡¯re not level boosters. We¡¯re just here to level up.¡± When they found out that they had just Awakened, everyone gasped. They could not believe it. Was this the strength of people who just Awakened their Class? However, there was no need to lie about such things. ¡°Then do you have any thoughts of bringing us along? I won¡¯t shortchange you, I¡¯ll pay double the price.¡± The man was still unwilling to give up. After all, they were too strong. Abigail refused immediately. This time, he did not speak again and left. If he continued to ask, it would be annoying. There was no need to offend these powerful people. Victor King frowned. He sensed the gazes of the other teams. ¡°Let¡¯s go to another area. There are still too many people here.¡± Their existence attracted a lot of attention, and no one liked to be surrounded. Moreover, the monsters in this area were easy to deal with, and there was no challenge. It was better to go to the higher-level monsters and take a look. Victor King¡¯s words were exactly what the other sisters wanted. They were tired of surrounding teams disturbing them. Everyone continued to walk toward the center of the Misty Forest. Looking at their backs, everyone could not help but reveal a yearning expression. ¡°If only I could also win by lying down.¡± ¡°The direction they left in should be towards the higher-level monsters.¡± Although everyone was envious, they had to admit that without Victor King and his team, they were relieved. Now, no one would snatch their monsters. Soon, Victor King and the others arrived at the territory of the Forest Wolves. These monsters looked no different from the Earth Lone Wolves, except that their claws were sharper and their attacks were higher. After all, they were level 10 monsters. ¡°Second Sister, try it.¡± Bella nodded and raised her staff to chant an incantation. Countless green wind blades gathered in the air and landed on the Forest Wolves. These monsters did not know what had happened. In the blink of an eye, they had already fallen to the ground. [Congratulations to your party for killing the Forest Wolf. You have received 80 experience points] [Congratulations to your party for killing the Forest Wolf. You have received 80 experience points] The notifications rang out one after another. Another instant kill! Even though they had already seen Bella¡¯s attack, they could not help but sigh. One had to know that she was only level 1 now, but she could instantly kill a level 10 monster. If news of this spread, many people would be shocked. Who had ever seen such a way of fighting monsters that were higher than her level? It was no wonder that everyone yearned for a Hidden Class. It was too powerful, especially for a powerful Combat-type like Bella¡¯s. ¡°I¡¯m afraid Second Sister is the epitome of all Mages.¡± ¡°After all, Second Sister has comprehended all the elements, and her affinity is very high. If it were any other Mage, they definitely wouldn¡¯t be able to reach such a standard.¡± Apart from the problem of Class, there was also the problem of talent. To be able to display such strength, it could be seen how terrifying and abnormal her talent was. ¡°Let¡¯s continue moving forward. The level of the monsters here is still too low.¡± If the people outside heard this, their eyes would probably turn red with jealousy. Victor King and the others were only level 1, and they thought that their levels were too low to fight a level 10 monster. Since Bella was able to kill these monsters in an instant, it meant that these monsters would not be a problem. If they wanted to level up well, they should be more thorough and challenge higher-level monsters. Not only Victor King, but the other sisters were also eager to see where their limits were. They had never been the type that stayed in their comfort zones. Only by constantly growing in battle could they protect their family and their little brother. ¡°I think what Little Brother said makes sense.¡± Everyone agreed, and they walked deeper into the cave. As Victor King and the others went deeper, the surrounding trees became denser and taller, and the environment became darker. The sunlight was blocked by the wide leaves, and occasionally slipped through the gaps, scattering specks of light on the ground. The plants were also growing in strange shapes. They were like long snakes clinging to the giant trees. There were even flowers with human faces. Everything looked so novel. Whether it was Victor King or his five sisters, they could not help but marvel at the scenery. It was as if they had come to an ancient forest that was rarely visited. The further they went, the fewer people they saw. In the end, they could not see anyone else. In the deep forest, only their footsteps could be heard, as well as the sound of them stepping on dead leaves. After all, everyone had just Awakened their Classes and did not have the strength to step into the depths of the forest. Even the level boosters did not have this level of confidence. The deeper they went, the higher the level of the monsters. They were not like the passive monsters in the novice area. The active monsters also meant that as long as they discovered the existence of humans, they would take the initiative to attack. Roar! A roar came from the depths of the forest. It was unknown what creature had made the noise, but it was filled with great deterrence. It was as if it was warning the people who had trespassed on its territory. Abigail immediately went into a state of alert. Emma was timid and hid behind Victor King. ¡°What kind of monster is it?¡± A fragrance entered Victor King¡¯s nose. It was like a Snow Lotus in the mountains, but it was also filled with a sacred smell. Victor King comforted her. ¡°Don¡¯t be afraid, Fifth Sister. We might be in the territory of active monsters. Just be careful.¡± Bella took out her staff and was ready to chant a spell at any time. Catherine also picked up her bow and arrow. Once the monster appeared, what awaited it would be a storm of attacks. As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a rustling sound. It was a level 15 monster, ¡®Bloodthirsty Silver Wolf¡¯. Its entire body was covered in snow-white fur without any impurities. Seeing the arrival of the crowd, the Silver Wolf immediately bared its teeth. The ferocious light in its eyes made people shudder. Its sharp claws were already stretched out. This was the preparation state before the attack. ¡°As expected, it¡¯s an active monster! And a level 15 one at that.¡± Bella and Catherine were about to make a move, but Doris stopped them. ¡°Let me try this time. It¡¯s a good time to stretch my muscles.¡± The others naturally had no objections. The Bloodthirsty Silver Wolf suddenly pounced toward everyone, but someone was faster than it! An afterimage appeared in the air, and a cold blade suddenly appeared in the air. It was like moonlight pouring down. No one saw how Doris attacked. The moment Doris and the Bloodthirsty Silver Wolf brushed past each other, the wolf fell to the ground, and Doris gracefully retracted her saber. Victor King could not help but exclaim, ¡°What amazing speed! As expected of a Shadow Ranger.¡± Chapter 20 Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation This Class was famous for its speed, and it really lived up to its reputation. Doris¡¯s movements were smooth and graceful. Even the other sisters did not see it clearly before the Bloodthirsty Silver Wolf fell. ¡°Fourth Sister is really fast, she¡¯s really cool.¡± The power that Doris had just released in a short period of time was particularly inconsistent with her cute appearance. However, when it was strangely mixed together, Doris exuded an inexplicable charm that made people unable to take their eyes off her. She did not expect herself to be so powerful. ¡°It¡¯s a pity that it¡¯s a single-target skill. If it was an AoE skill, the effect would probably be better.¡± ¡°This is already pretty good. After all, Shadow Rangers aren¡¯t suited for fighting monsters.¡± Victor King analyzed her thoughts about her Class. ¡°In the future, you can add points to critical hits, speed, strength, agility, and other aspects. To be able to kill someone without them noticing and then harvest them¡­ It will definitely be the most terrifying nightmare of the enemy.¡± Letting Doris kill monsters was a waste of her talent. After all, her skills were all single-target. This was more suitable for team battles. She would ambush in the dark and wait for an opportunity to attack. When the enemy revealed their weakness, she would kill them in one shot. There were Warriors, Mages, and Support in their team. They were all top-notch existences. It could be said that they were well-equipped, and everyone¡¯s division of labor was very clear, so Doris did not feel annoyed. After all, she was useful in other aspects and could not be used for the time being. She could just lie down and level up with the other sisters. [Congratulations to your party for killing the Bloodthirsty Silver Wolf. You have received 120 experience points] [Congratulations to your party for killing the Bloodthirsty Silver Wolf. You have received 120 experience points] This time, each monster gave them 120 experience points! A series of notifications sounded again, and everyone was annoyed. They turned off the experience notifications. Victor King saw that it would not be long before the experience bar was full and they would level up again. ¡°As expected, coming here to farm monsters is a good choice.¡± The monsters here were of high levels, so the experience they gained from killing monsters of a higher level was also high. Most importantly, they did not have to worry about anyone stealing the monsters, nor did they have to care about the gazes of the surrounding people. Here, there was only Victor King and his group. The sisters did not need to hide their strength. They were free to let their nature out. For those who had just awakened their Class, it was impossible to deal with the Bloodthirsty Silver Wolf. After all, there was a difference of 15 levels. Even a level booster would not dare to take the risk. Even if those players were fighting monsters day and night without eating or drinking, they would fight monsters only 1 or 2 levels above. Victor King and the others had already started fighting level 15 monsters, who knew how far ahead they were. If this news were to spread out, it would probably scare many people to death because this was simply impossible. The difference in levels was too great. There was simply no way to surpass so many levels. However, Victor King¡¯s sisters were too powerful, and their Classes were too heaven-defying. These monsters were easy to deal with. Seeing that his sisters were in good condition and that it would be easy for them to deal with the Bloodthirsty Silver Wolf, Victor King suddenly had a bold idea. ¡°There must be other active monsters nearby. Since we¡¯re fighting them anyway, we might as well fight more of them together.¡± Hearing this, Catherine¡¯s eyes lit up. ¡°That¡¯s a good idea! This way, our efficiency will increase, and we can save time and level up faster.¡± Bella was a little worried. ¡°But isn¡¯t it a little too risky? After all, the highest active monster here is probably level 20.¡± Victor King was very confident. ¡°Don¡¯t worry, we have Emma with us, and we have medicine. If we can¡¯t win, we can just run away.¡± Abigail stood up and said, ¡°I agree with Little Brother¡¯s decision. It¡¯s okay to run if you can¡¯t beat them.¡± ¡°Then the question is, who is in charge of luring the monsters?¡± Victor King had already thought of this question. ¡°Big Sister¡¯s Class is more towards the Warrior type, let Big Sister lure the monsters over.¡± ¡°Second Sister and Third Sister, use your AoE skills. If the monsters are not completely dead yet, Fourth Sister will go and finish them up. As for Fifth Sister, you¡¯ll be in charge of guarding and paying attention to the surrounding situation at all times in case any accidents happen. Or, you can give Big Sister a buff.¡± The division of labor was clear and reasonable, and everyone¡¯s Class was used appropriately. There was no waste at all. ¡°Can Big Sister go alone? It won¡¯t be dangerous, right? Why don¡¯t we go with her?¡± Abigail nodded. ¡°It just so happens that I have a Class skill that is more defensive. It¡¯s called Dragon God¡¯s Protection. It can transform the attacks of enemies or monsters into shields. Everyone, don¡¯t worry about me. If you guys follow me, I¡¯ll have to divert my attention to take care of you.¡± That was right. One person was enough to lure the monsters, and the others were responsible for intercepting the monsters. Furthermore, Abigail was a Warrior, so her defense was stronger than Bella and Catherine. With her skill, she was the most suitable to lure the monsters. Everyone watched Abigail leave. ¡°I wonder if Big Sister will succeed.¡± ¡°You have to believe in Big Sister¡¯s strength. When has she ever disappointed us?¡± ¡°You¡¯re right. Even if she can¡¯t lure the monsters, Big Sis can at least protect herself. She¡¯s a Dragon God Knight.¡± Just as everyone was discussing, hurried footsteps sounded. At the same time, the ground seemed to tremble. ¡°It must be Big Sister!¡± Everyone looked at each other. Bella and Catherine were ready. Once Abigail appeared with the monster, they would immediately release their skills. Even though everyone was mentally prepared, they still could not help but gape when they saw the scene in front of them. Abigail¡¯s entire body was enveloped in a faint golden light, making her look more sacred and dignified. This must be her skill, Dragon God¡¯s Protection. Behind her was a group of monsters that came menacingly. The scale of the monsters looked very large, to the extent that they could scare off those level boosters. There were more than a dozen Bloodthirsty Silver Wolves, and other active monsters were some type of wolves. They looked extremely ferocious as they followed behind Abigail. Some of them even reached out their sharp claws to attack her, but they could not break through her defense at all. They could only grit their teeth. ¡°Big Sister, this is too exaggerated. I¡¯m afraid we¡¯ve poked a wolf¡¯s den.¡± ¡°I suspect that Big Sister stole their treasure, and they¡¯re mad.¡± ¡°Big Sis is too awesome. She lured so many monsters on her first try. If we kill all these monsters, how much EXP would we gain?¡± If it were anyone else who saw this scene, they would have fled long ago. On the other hand, Victor King and the others were unbelievably bold. They were still discussing without any sense of danger. Chapter 21 Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation Abigail could see everyone¡¯s relaxed expressions from afar. She did not know whether to laugh or cry. ¡°If you don¡¯t do anything, I¡¯m afraid I¡¯ll be bitten to death by these Bloodthirsty Silver Wolves.¡± Victor King could not help but laugh. ¡°I¡¯m afraid you won¡¯t lose a drop of HP even if these wolves are killed.¡± His words revealed his trust in Abigail. ¡°Alright, hurry up and do it. There are still many more behind.¡± Everyone stopped smiling and started to get down to business. When the wolves stepped into Bella and Catherine¡¯s attack range, they released their skills. A large number of wind blades landed on the wolf pack¡¯s bodies, like the Grim Reaper waving his scythe, quickly harvesting lives. At the same time, arrows that were as dense as rain pierced through their hearts. The wolves were instantly killed, and they did not even have the chance to react. The wolves were very fast. The wolves behind them did not know what had happened because their aggro was still on Abigail. They trampled on the bodies of their companions and repeated the same fate. The ground was littered with corpses. Even the respawn rate was not that fast. If someone saw this scene, their eyes might pop out from the shock. Fortunately, Victor King and the others had already turned off the EXP notifications. Otherwise, they would have been annoyed to death by the long string of notifications. Such speed and efficiency in killing monsters were simply heaven for all Awakened. However, Victor King¡¯s method could not be replicated. First of all, you had to have the strength and capability to do this. Victor King¡¯s sisters had five powerful Hidden Classes. Others could not even gather one, let alone five. These were all active monsters, and wolves were the most vengeful animals. Seeing so many corpses of their companions, these creatures were completely enraged, and they roared and pounced on Victor King and the others. Victor King looked at the wolves in front of him and found it funny. ¡°Even these monsters know how to pick the weak ones.¡± Among everyone, he was probably the weakest. Beside Bella and Catherine, there was already a mountain of corpses of wild monsters, which did not match their beauty at all. However, before they could get close, a ghostly figure appeared in front of Victor King. Before the wolves could even see her movements, they were already killed by a saber. Emma tilted her head slightly, revealing her exquisite side profile and small cherry lips. She asked with concern, ¡°Little Brother, are you alright?¡± Victor King shook his head. Abigail was in charge of attracting the monsters¡¯ aggro, Bella and Catherine killed the monsters, and Doris went around to finish them off in case any monsters left their attack range. She was like a ghost, and many monsters died at her hands. This kind of cooperation could be said to be seamless. No monster could escape from their hands. Even Emma would occasionally cast a skill to buff everyone. Up until now, they were still in good spirits and did not seem tired at all. It was all thanks to Emma. Victor King was just standing idle. He did not look like he was fighting monsters at all. Instead, he looked like he was here to travel. Fortunately, no one else saw him, or else they would be looking at him with envy. Thinking of those people who had fought so hard to level up, and even those who had a booster in their team could not do it as easily as Victor King. They had to fight the monsters together. Unlike Victor King, who could level up just by lying down. After a long time, Victor King took a look at his EXP bar. He was already at level 6, while most other people were at level 1. Their speed could be said to be like a rocket. It was simply a distance that no one could reach. Even if a few of them did not sleep or rest, they would not be able to reach such efficiency and level. However, after fighting for so long, even though Emma¡¯s skills could help everyone clear a certain amount of negative statuses, Bella and Catherine¡¯s chanting skills and shooting arrows consumed a certain amount of stamina. The two of them were already showing signs of fatigue. ¡°Why don¡¯t we take a break after this wave of monsters?¡± Victor King suggested. These monsters were here anyway, so Abigail could go lure them again after they rested. At this moment, a notification sounded. [Congratulations on killing 2,000 wolves. You have received the title: Wolf Slayer Warrior] [Wolf Slayer Warrior: Wearer¡¯s attack attribute +10, speed +10] It was a Green title, and its attributes were quite good. To everyone, this was a pleasant surprise. However, before they could celebrate for long, the next system announcement sounded. [Because you have killed too many wolves, you have aroused the hatred of the Wolf King. Wolves are the most vengeful race. The Wolf King is about to arrive at the battlefield to avenge his kin. He will not rest until his enemy is dead!] At the same time, a buff appeared above everyone¡¯s head, and there was also a countdown timer. [Wolf King¡¯s Fury: Your hands are stained with the blood of too many wolves. The Wolf King has marked you. He will find you no matter where you are! Everyone¡¯s defense -10] Victor King could not help but complain, ¡°Damn, there¡¯s such a thing!¡± The sisters had never seen such a scene before, so they did not know what was going on. Victor King was speechless. ¡°I didn¡¯t expect us to encounter such a low-probability trigger event.¡± Seeing everyone¡¯s confusion, he explained, ¡°It should be a Mini-Boss, the kind of Boss monster. Whether it¡¯s level or attack, it¡¯s higher than all the creatures in this area. If too many monsters die in our hands, it might attract their revenge.¡± However, this was the novice area. Logically speaking, the chances should be pitifully small. Otherwise, there were so many Awakened who changed their Class every year, but they had never heard of the Wolf King. This was the first time Victor King and the others had done this. It was enough to show how high the hatred was. After all, even the monsters¡¯ respawn rate could not keep up with their killing speed. There were still many wolf corpses on the ground. Emma could not help but feel a little nervous. ¡°It sounds very powerful. Why don¡¯t we leave quickly?¡± Victor King shook his head. ¡°Didn¡¯t you notice that we have buffs on us? The Wolf King has marked us. Even if we run, it will find us.¡± ¡°Then what should we do now?¡± Facing his sisters¡¯ worries, Victor King was relatively calm. ¡°Don¡¯t worry, things aren¡¯t that bad.¡± To the others, the Wolf King was an existence that was enough to crush them. There was no comparison at all. If they really encountered it, they could only admit that they were unlucky and be prepared to die. However, it was different for Victor King and his sisters. The sisters were all powerful Hidden Combat-type Classes. They should not have much of a problem dealing with the Mini-Bosses in the novice area. Chapter 22 Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation ¡°I think we should be able to deal with this Wolf King. Based on our strength, we don¡¯t have to be afraid of it. As long as it dares to come, we¡¯ll send it to meet the same fate as its friends.¡± Hearing Victor King¡¯s words, everyone was relieved. They trusted Victor King unconditionally. Since Victor King said there was no problem, then there must be no problem. Not far away, rustling sounds could be heard. At the same time, the countdown had reached its end. ¡°The Wolf King is about to appear!¡± Roar! As soon as he finished his sentence, a deafening roar resounded through the sky. Its cold eyes stared at Victor King and the others, carrying the coldness unique to beasts, as well as the flames of hatred. It slowly revealed its body. It was almost half the height of an adult human, and its size was several times larger than the wolves they had encountered before. It carried an inexplicable pressure as it glared at everyone. ¡°So this is the Wolf King? It¡¯s indeed different from the monsters we encountered before.¡± The wolf¡¯s body was partially covered in black scales, and its tail was full of barbs. It looked extremely ferocious. This monster was the leader of the novice area, and it could be considered a Mini-Boss, and could not be underestimated. Everyone was on guard, not daring to let their guard down. Catherine was the first to make a move. In the blink of an eye, three arrows were shot at the same time. With lightning speed, the Wolf King dodged two of them. The remaining one pierced into the Wolf King¡¯s armor, and it only lost a little HP. In the past, Catherine had hit every single shot. She put down her bow and arrow in surprise. ¡°What¡¯s going on?¡± ¡°Maybe the level difference is too big, that¡¯s why there¡¯s such a situation.¡± The Wolf King was angered by Catherine¡¯s actions. It roared and pounced over. However, Catherine¡¯s speed was too fast, so the Wolf King¡¯s attack missed. Bella raised her staff. ¡°Let me deal with it.¡± Dense wind blades descended from the sky, interweaving into a net that covered the sky. Even the trees beside it were blown to the side. Under such dense attacks, the Wolf King could not dodge. Immediately, many wounds appeared on its body, and blood flowed onto the ground. This infuriated the Wolf King even more. It roared angrily and charged toward the crowd. If it were the previous monsters, they would have been killed in an instant. The Wolf King only lost half of its HP, which was enough to show how strong its defense was. ¡°As expected, the Mini-Boss still has a certain level of strength.¡± However, no one was afraid. They were also strong. It was still uncertain who would win. Victor King suggested, ¡°Third Sister, try attacking its eyes.¡± The heart was protected by scales and was not easy to break, but the eyes were relatively fragile. The Wolf King¡¯s attention was completely attracted by Bella¡¯s wind blades. Catherine suddenly shot another arrow. It was almost impossible to defend against the arrow, and it immediately let out a heart-wrenching roar. ¡°She hit it!¡± The originally majestic Wolf King instantly turned into a one-eyed wolf. Blood flowed on the ground, and its remaining beast eye was staring at Catherine with hatred. Its sharp claws seemed to want to tear her entire body apart. No one expected the Wolf King to leap up and jump out of the range of the wind blades. It attacked Catherine. Its teeth flickered with a cold light and its huge bite force was shocking. Bella and Catherine did not react to this sudden action. Catherine was fine, as she had a certain degree of self-protection ability. However, a fragile Mage like Bella would be in great danger once she was close to the enemy. At that moment, a figure appeared in front of Bella. It was Abigail. She was the closest to Bella. The incident happened so suddenly. Without thinking, she stood in front of Bella. ¡°Big Sister, be careful!¡± Everyone¡¯s hearts were in their throats. Crash! The golden light knocked the Wolf King away. Victor King could hear the sound of something shattering. He looked carefully and saw that the Wolf King¡¯s teeth had all fallen to the ground. Under the protection of the light shield, Abigail was completely unharmed. It was as if the huge attack just now was no different from a tickle to her. Victor King could not help but sigh. ¡°This shield is too thick.¡± Only then did everyone realize how insane the skill ¡®Dragon God¡¯s Protection¡¯ was. It could turn the attacker¡¯s damage into its own defense. The Wolf King was heavily injured and one of its eyes had been blinded. In a state of anger, its attack power was especially high. However, it did not expect its attack to be reflected back, and even its teeth were broken. A blind and toothless Wolf King, how could it still be called a Wolf King? It was too tragic. After all, it was still a Mini-Boss. Although it was in the novice area, its strength was not bad. However, it had fallen to such a state. However, even worse things were to come. Although Abigail and Bella were not injured, what happened just now had already angered everyone. Catherine fired multiple arrows at once, even piercing through the defense of the Wolf King¡¯s scales. Doris was like a ghost, drawing blood with every slash of her saber. Even a gentle person like Emma, whose skills were mainly for defense and support, kept throwing attacks at the wolf, dealing damage to it. ¡°You¡¯ll pay for hurting my sister.¡± All the sisters went berserk, and Victor King was dumbfounded. As expected, no one should offend a woman. Even the gentlest Emma was furious. The Wolf King could not hold on any longer, and its tall body collapsed. It was not that it was too weak, but that the enemy was too powerful. [Congratulations to your party for killing the Wolf King. You have received 10,000 experience points.] [Congratulations on reaching level 7] [Congratulations on reaching level 8] ¡­ A huge amount of experience points poured into the experience bar, and the system notifications sounded one after another. It was like a rocket, and it only stopped when it reached level 12. ¡°Level 12 already.¡± Everyone¡¯s expression was as if they were in a dream. They could not believe it. This speed was something that did not exist in the entire continent. It could be said to be a miracle. Which Awakened could level up 12 times in a day? Victor King and the others were fighting monsters of a higher level, so they had a lot of bonuses. In addition, the Wolf King was a Mini-Boss, so the experience points were also frighteningly high. It could be said that they profited greatly this time. ¡°At this speed, I believe that we will be able to reach the First Transition in no time.¡± Everyone had a clearer understanding of their own strength and was more confident. If they could even deal with the Mini-Boss, the remaining monsters would naturally be no problem. Moreover, the experience gained from killing such a leader was a hundred times more than the experience gained from killing small monsters. They had hoped that a few more Mini-Bosses would respawn, but unfortunately, the chances of them respawning were too low. This time, they were extremely lucky to have a Mini-Boss like the Wolf King. Chapter 23 Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation Under the Wolf King¡¯s corpse, there were White, Green, and even Blue lights. It was a Mini-Boss after all, and it looked like it had dropped some good stuff. Catherine quickly called everyone over. ¡°I wonder what good things will drop this time.¡± ¡°There¡¯s even Blue equipment!¡± When everyone was equipped with White grade equipment, the Blue grade equipment was especially eye-catching. Of course, Victor King was not included. After all, who would be as abnormal as him to obtain a divine equipment just after his Class Awakening? [Wolf King Dagger] [Rarity: Blue] [Equipment level: 10] [Attributes: Agility +10, attack +10, strength +10] [A dagger forged from the sharpest teeth of the Wolf King] After everyone checked the attributes, they could not help but exclaim, ¡°This is much better than the equipment we have on us. As expected of Blue equipment. If we put it on the Trading House, we¡¯ll probably sell it for a lot of money.¡± ¡°We¡¯re so lucky. Not only did we encounter a Mini-Boss, but we also dropped Blue equipment.¡± Victor King, who was hidden among everyone, remained silent. He had a posture of hiding his achievements and fame. He guessed that the Wolf King¡¯s drop rate was so high that it might have something to do with his luck. The equipment drop rate was usually very low. Small monsters might not drop White or Green equipment, and it was the same for big monsters. This equipment was still priceless. After all, equipment was too scarce now. They did not lack money, so they would definitely not choose to sell it. Instead, they would use it themselves. After looking at it, Doris was the most suitable. She was a Shadow Ranger, and this class could also use daggers. It could be said that she was like a tiger with wings. There were also a few pieces of Green equipment that were barely passable, but they were definitely not comparable to Blue equipment. They were also divided among the crowd, and the rest were all very ordinary White equipment. No one felt disappointed. After all, with such a low drop rate, it was already good enough to get a Blue equipment. Victor King looked at the sky. They had been here for a long time. Even with Emma¡¯s help, they were still a little tired, not to mention that they had just gone through a big battle. Everyone¡¯s expression was far from as good as it was at the beginning. ¡°Today¡¯s harvest is not bad. Let¡¯s stop here.¡± The others also felt that it made sense. Leveling up was important, but keeping good health was more important. Moreover, with their level and speed, they had long left those at the same level far behind, so there was no need to fight so hard. When they returned, the sky was already very dark. The novice leveling area was still crowded with people, almost no different from during the day. Even if they were tired, these normal people would sit on the ground and eat some bread and dry food. They would continue to fight monsters and level up. They did not sleep day and night so that they would not fall behind. Catherine could not help but sigh. ¡°This group of people is really too hardworking.¡± In this world, the strong were respected. The higher the level, the greater the advantage. After all, no one was like Victor King, who had powerful Hidden Classes and insane talents. Leveling up was as easy as drinking water. Everyone was busy leveling up, so they did not notice that Victor King and the others had left, nor did they notice that they had already reached level 12. After returning home, they did not feel tired when they were leveling up. Now that they were resting, they felt exhausted. They did not even eat dinner and went to rest. Victor King was not included. After all, he had been relaxing the entire time and had not used much strength. When he woke up again, it was already mid-day. When he walked into the living room, he realized that there were only his Third and Fourth Sisters. Victor King was curious. ¡°Where are the Big Sister and the rest?¡± ¡°Big Sister was called over by Dean Blake. Second Sister was invited over by Mage Cass, and Lady Amanda personally came to take the Fifth Sister away.¡± Victor King was dumbfounded. They were all big shots. Looking at the calm Catherine and Doris, he asked, ¡°What about you guys? Why are you still here?¡± He believed that the news of the Class Awakening yesterday must have spread throughout Peg City, including the Classes of his sisters. It was no secret at all. Victor King was not surprised that these forces and people would come looking for them. It would be strange if they did not do anything. However, it was a little unexpected that Catherine and Doris were left alone. After all, their Hidden Classes were also very powerful. ¡°We were just about to go out when the Guild Master of the Mercenary Guild sent us an invitation.¡± So in the end, he was the only one who was ignored. Seeing that Victor King did not say anything, Catherine thought that he was sad because of his Class. She quickly comforted him, ¡°Little Brother, don¡¯t worry. We¡¯ll help you think of a way. There¡¯s too little information about the Bard Class. Big Sister and the others will help to find out. We¡¯ll eventually find another path.¡± ¡°Don¡¯t worry, I¡¯m not someone who can be defeated so easily. I was just thinking about something.¡± Seeing that Victor King was fine, the two of them were relieved. ¡°Then we¡¯ll go out first. Big Sis said that she¡¯ll bring you to level up when she comes back.¡± After sending them off, there was no one else around. Victor King carefully checked the door and window before taking out the ring from his backpack. Previously, it was either in public or under the eyes of his sisters. In order to avoid suspicion, he did not have time to check the item properly. [Weapon: Ring of Immortality] [Rarity: Gold] [Level: Level 1, can grow] [Attribute: All attributes of the wearer +10 (can grow)] [Skill: The wearer can disguise as another Class and use the Class skill. No one can see through it] A golden light appeared in the air, and an ancient and gorgeous ring floated in front of him. The entire ring was engraved with complicated patterns and runes, and it was filled with a mysterious aura. Especially the huge ruby in the middle. It carried a powerful pressure. Even if it was only level 1, it could not be underestimated. Anyone with eyes could see that this ring was extraordinary. Victor King tried to wear it on his finger. The ring automatically shrunk and fit his finger perfectly. It looked a little heavy, but it was as light as a feather. ¡°It¡¯s beautiful, but it¡¯s too high-profile. It¡¯s easy to be exposed.¡± Victor King did not want to cause any more trouble. A dazzling appearance could easily attract the attention of others. This was undoubtedly telling others that he had high-level equipment in his hands and was waiting for others to snatch it. There were really such people on the continent, and there were many of them. After all, the drop rate of equipment was so low now. When people could not get it, they had to target others. If they knew that this ring was a divine equipment, and that they would not be able to find one in the entire continent. Moreover, his level was so low¡­ One could imagine what kind of storm would be stirred up. The consequences of being exposed were unimaginable. It would put him, his sisters, and even the entire family in danger. Chapter 24 Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation Victor King sighed. Just as he was thinking about how to solve this problem, the ring on his finger changed. The original golden color slowly faded and turned into a bronze rusted color. Even the huge ruby on it had disappeared. It looked like an ordinary White equipment, the ¡®iron ring¡¯. Victor King stared at the changes in the ring in shock. ¡°This is amazing.¡± As expected of a divine equipment, it could actually change according to its master¡¯s needs. At the same time, the information on the ring also changed. [Weapon: Ring of Immortality (Bound)(Disguising)] If a piece of equipment was bound, the possibility of it being snatched away would be greatly reduced. If it was bound, only their owners had the right to deal with them, which could be considered as solving a certain safety hazard. This way, even if Victor King carried the ring with him, he would not have to worry about it being stolen. Moreover, its current state was so inconspicuous that ordinary people would not be able to notice it at all. There was no longer any worry. Victor King¡¯s main goal was to be able to use skills after wearing the ring. [Skill: The wearer can disguise as another Class and use the Class skill. No one can see through it] This skill could be said to be too heaven-defying. It could even be considered a bug. He could disguise himself as any Class and use the skill of that class. Victor King could not believe it, but the system introduction would not have any mistakes, so he decided to experiment with it himself. Since his sisters were not around, he planned to do something big this time. ¡®What¡¯s the point of fighting small monsters? It¡¯s better to go directly to the Secret Realm! It was a good opportunity for him to experience the power of a divine equipment. Other than that, there was also the Skill Book from last time.¡¯ Victor King wanted to see what he could summon. After checking the nearby Secret Realms, he found that there was only the Howling Caves, the Swamp of Grievance, and the Shadowfang Castle. Although Victor King was confident, he was not a reckless person. He definitely would not go to a dangerous Secret Realm. Compared to the previous two, the Howling Caves was less difficult and less dangerous, so this was the most suitable choice. Victor King left a note in case his sister could not find him when she came back. Of course, he could not say that he was going to the Secret Realm alone. It would definitely cause them to worry. He only said that he was going to take a look at the surrounding scenery. There was a special teleportation array in Peg City that could directly reach these places. The fee was not too expensive. It was 1,000 Continental Coins. When he learned that he was going to the Howling Caves, the person in charge of the teleportation array looked at him in surprise. ¡°Are you alone?¡± Victor King nodded. The Howling Caves was a level 10-20 Secret Realm. Most people had only just changed their Class and Awakened. There were very few people who went to the Secret Realm. Not to mention that Victor King was alone. Without a team, it was simply impossible for him to enter the Secret Realm alone. Although that person was curious, he did not ask any more questions. Perhaps Victor King¡¯s teammates had already gone over. The teleportation array was made by the Great Spatial Archmage. It was very stable and basically would not have any problems. The price was set according to the distance. If it was between cities, the price would be astronomical. Moreover, not every city would have a teleportation array. Only medium-sized and well-developed cities would have one. For example, those small towns would not have one. It would be too time-consuming and laborious. Moreover, no one would use them. It was simply a waste of their existence. After all, it was not easy to carve a teleportation array. As the world spun, Victor King had already arrived outside the city. The Howling Caves was just a short distance away. There were some people at the entrance, but there were only a few of them. Compared to the novice leveling area, there were very few of them. They watched as Victor King walked over. With his attire, he did not look like a poor person. A few people immediately went up to him. ¡°Do you want to boost your level? The price is reasonable, and I guarantee that you¡¯ll be satisfied. As long as the money is sufficient, you can have priority in choosing the loot.¡± ¡°Brother, do you want to join our team? We¡¯re still lacking an AoE damage Class. Mage or Archer is fine.¡± ¡°We know the fastest way to clear the Howling Caves. You only need to spend a little money and you can clear it. How about it? Do you want to try?¡± Both reliable and unreliable people came knocking on his door, but they were all rejected by Victor King. These people were not high-leveled, and they did not have any appraisal skills, so they did not know Victor King¡¯s class. If they knew that Victor King was the worst Bard, they definitely would not have asked. ¡°I¡¯m sorry, I already have a team.¡± Seeing this, everyone was very tactful and did not disturb him. After all, they all had teams. However, looking around, there were only a few teams. How could there be any other teams? Before they could react, they saw Victor King walk into the Howling Caves. ¡°Am I seeing things? The team this kid mentioned is him alone?¡± ¡°Newborn calves are not afraid of tigers. He actually entered the Secret Realm alone.¡± ¡°I think he¡¯s just here to make a scene. I¡¯ve been a level booster for so many years, but I¡¯ve never heard of anyone successfully entering this Secret Realm alone. He¡¯s probably just pretending to be a noob.¡± The Secret Realm could be exited halfway. Everyone could only enter a Secret Realm a limited number of times. Once they exceeded the limit, if they wanted to enter the Secret Realm again, there would be a cooldown time. Moreover, it was quite long, so the number of times was more precious. As everyone knew, the Secret Realm was not like fighting small monsters outside. The difficulty was publicly recognized to be high. However, the overall strength of the monsters in the dungeon was stronger than those outside. In other words, even if you could beat the monsters of the same level outside, you might not be able to beat the monsters in the dungeon. It was no wonder that everyone was so surprised. After all, the minimum number of people who could pass this Secret Realm was at least five. Now that Victor King had entered alone, how could they not be shocked? ¡°I hope this kid can come out alive.¡± ¡°If he can¡¯t beat the monsters, he can just run. It doesn¡¯t matter. At most, he¡¯ll just waste an opportunity.¡± Everyone was discussing among themselves. No one thought that Victor King would succeed. Chapter 25 Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation Every Secret Realm had its own unique background, and the Howling Caves were no exception. Once upon a time, the Demon King descended upon this continent, and countless creatures were contaminated because of it. Originally, the low-level wild beasts that lived in the cave were all distorted and mutated after being contaminated by the demonic aura. Although they obtained great strength, they were also burned by the demonic aura day and night and suffered great pain. This was the origin of the Howling Caves. The cold wind blew on Victor King¡¯s face. It sounded like someone was crying as it passed through the empty cave. Not far away, the cave entrance was like a ferocious beast that wanted to devour people. Victor King stepped into it without hesitation. Now that there were no outsiders, he could finally test the power of the divine equipment. He only gently rotated the ring on his hand, and the attributes on the interface changed. He could actually choose his own Class. Victor King thought for a moment and chose the Mage option. Although Mages were a little fragile, the speed of clearing monsters was very fast. This divine equipment could turn him into all kinds of Classes, and no one could see through the disguise. Victor King understood the first sentence, but he was a little confused about the second sentence. Could it be that he could even use Class skills? However, whether it was true or not, he still had to put it into practice. Victor King¡¯s gaze fell on a spot not far away. There were a few small monsters wandering around the outermost area of the cave. They were like long black worms. As they had lived in the cave for many years, their eyes had long degenerated and were covered with a layer of dark white. They looked very scary, and their bodies were covered with hard black scales. Although they could not see, their hearing improved a lot. The slightest movement attracted their attention. They opened their bloody mouths and revealed rings of densely packed teeth, pouncing towards Victor King. ¡°The Power of Lightning.¡± Maybe it was because of the divine item or some other reason, but Victor King did not need to chant a spell. A purple lightning dragon suddenly burst out from Victor King¡¯s body. He felt as if an electric current had passed through his body, and there was a numb feeling. The lightning struck the monsters almost instantly. In the blink of an eye, those monsters had been electrocuted into charcoal, like hard branches. Countless experience points flowed into his experience bar. Victor King looked at his hands in disbelief. This kind of damage, and the speed of casting without chanting. His talent was not much different from Bella¡¯s. If word got out, it would scare people to death. It was really too heaven-defying. Victor King touched the ring on his finger. His heart was beating fast, and even his breathing became hurried. There were also strong and weak Mages. For example, Bella was a Full-Elemental Mage, so she was definitely the top of all Mages. However, he had just put on the ring and used his Class Disguise, and the power of his spells was not inferior to Bella¡¯s. What if it was another Class? As Victor King explored the Secret Realm, he showed the monsters what it meant to die in all kinds of ways. Some of the monsters were electrocuted to death by the power of elements, some were hacked to death by swords, and some were even worse, crushed to death by a single hand. In short, they had tried all kinds of ways to die. Any Class that Victor King could think of, the ring could disguise itself and use related skills. Not every skill could be used. He had just awakened his Class, so he could only use two skills. Therefore, the disguised Class also had two skills, and they were random. After the Second and Third Transition, the number of skills used would increase, and the number of disguises would also increase. Perhaps due to his own limitations, some special Hidden Classes could not be disguised, such as Abigail¡¯s, but he could still disguise into other similar Classes. However, no matter what Class skill it was, the strength of the skill was terrifying. It was not something that he could use at his level. Perhaps only Hidden Classes like Abigail or Bella could compare to it. [Congratulations, you have triggered the Hidden skill ¡®Bard¡¯s Blessing¡¯. If you use other Class skills, you will receive a blessing bonus, doubling the power. You can also use it on others.] The sudden system prompt answered Victor King¡¯s confusion. ¡°I see. I didn¡¯t expect the Bard to have a Hidden skill.¡± Victor King rubbed his chin. This Class was too useless, so there were not many people who awakened. Even if they did, they would be recognized as trash. No one studied it carefully, so they simply gave up and became Craftspeople. On this continent, there was another type of people who did not want to develop in this field because their Classes were too useless. They simply chose to learn a craft. For example, forging, construction, gathering, and so on. This group of people were collectively called life Craftspeople. Although their combat strength was not high, they could still survive on the continent by relying on their own skills. Some of the best people even lived a good life. There was too little information left behind about the Bard. Although most people knew that this Class was useless, they did not understand it. For example, he had never heard anyone mention this Hidden skill. Perhaps it had never been triggered before. ¡°Could it be that my luck value is too high, so it triggered?¡± Victor King could not help but sigh. He had thought that he was an idiot, after all, he had awakened such a Class. He did not expect that there was such a Class that relied on ridiculous amounts of luck. With this godly ring and the Bard¡¯s Blessing, he could use any Class skill. Moreover, the power he could unleash was also very huge. He was like a bug in a video game. Even Victor King himself felt that it was too heaven-defying. The monsters that followed were not a problem for Victor King at all. After knowing that the ring was so powerful, he could move forward without any worries. Along the way, he was notified by the system. The most difficult part of the Howling Caves was the last monster, and the Boss. Previously, there were many people who could deal with the monsters in front of them, but most of them were killed by the Boss. In the cave, the narrow and dark path extended into the distance. The path seemed to have no end, and no one knew where it led. In the darkness, countless pairs of green eyes suddenly lit up, like ghost flames floating in the air, filled with coldness and bloodlust. These creatures that were sleeping in the darkness were awakened. They smelled the scent of a living person. Rustle! Victor King heard the commotion in front of him, and his eyes suddenly became alert. He was worried that a Mage would be too fragile, so he chose the Berserker Class. It had high HP, strong defense, and good attack power. Chapter 26 Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation A large group of bats flew out from the darkness. Each of them was the size of an adult male¡¯s fist. When they fully extended their wings, they were as long as their forearms. They looked a little scary. Their beast eyes stared at Victor King, revealing sharp teeth and biting down hard. Victor King let them bite him. The bats landed on Victor King¡¯s body and surrounded him. From afar, they looked like a black cocoon, which was disgusting and scary. The red light burst out and shook the bats away. Many of them fell to the ground, and even a few of their teeth were broken. As for the rest, Victor King cut them up as easily as cutting melons and vegetables. Even with the most ordinary weapon, Victor King could easily mow through the bats. Soon, the corpses of the bats on the ground piled up into a small hill. Just as Victor King was in the midst of killing the bats, a system notification rang in his ears. [The monster sleeping in the depths of the Howling Caves has been awakened by you. It has been contaminated by demonic energy and has powerful strength. At this moment, you have been targeted. The footsteps of the God of Death are approaching you.] Victor King could feel an extremely cold and malicious gaze. At the same time, deep in the cave, a pair of green eyes suddenly opened. With an extremely powerful pressure, they looked at Victor King. Although he had not seen the monster yet, Victor King¡¯s initial prediction was that this aura was definitely not something he could deal with at his current level. ¡°Looks like I can have no choice but to find help.¡± The ring was a divine equipment. Although its functions were indeed heaven-defying, it was not really omnipotent. For example, he was less than level 20 now. He could fight monsters that were higher than his level, but he could not be too ridiculous. For example, how could a level 1 go to fight a level 100 monster? It was not a real loophole in the game. Although Victor King was confident, he was not blindly impulsive. He would not really think that he was the best in the world and run to the Boss to challenge him. ¡°I wonder what the Divine Summoning Spell will summon.¡± Victor King thought of the summoning spell he had obtained last time. Before the Boss appeared, he could use the summoning spell. If the summoned creature did not work, he planned to leave the Secret Realm. Although the experience points would be reduced by half if he quit halfway, it was not a big deal compared to his life. At most, he could just come back with his sisters next time. A huge magic array appeared under Victor King¡¯s feet, and he was surrounded by light beams. He could vaguely hear someone calling his name. It was an ancient raving language. Because it had been lost for a long time, no one could understand it. It probably dated back to ancient times. ¡°What language is this? It¡¯s so strange. It doesn¡¯t belong to any of the common languages of the continent.¡± Victor King thought of himself as an encyclopedia, but he had never heard of it before. However, he was sure that this language had not been circulated on the continent for a long time. The magic array turned from transparent to red, and an ancient and powerful pressure enveloped the secret realm. It was as if an indescribable existence in the void had been awakened. The color continued to darken, and at the same time, the pressure in the air was increasing. Victor King could even feel the ground trembling. It was as if the space could not withstand the creatures summoned through the magic array. The array had already turned scarlet, filled with ominous and strange feelings. Victor King was dumbfounded. What kind of creature did he summon? Black fog emerged from the magic array, and the surrounding environment became even darker. A cold and evil aura surrounded the surroundings. He could vaguely see a pair of cold eyes, as if an abyss had descended, making him shudder. When he wanted to see it clearly again, the creature had already completely hidden itself and could not be seen clearly at all. The black fog wrapped around the unknown creature and almost occupied the entire Secret Realm. Victor King had a feeling that this was not its true body. The Howling Caves was quite big, but it was still a little small for it. He could not see what the creature looked like at all. He couldn¡¯t help but mutter to himself, ¡°What exactly is this¡­¡± There was no record of this creature in his mind. The black fog shrouded everything. Since Victor King was the one who summoned it, he could also see the information of the summoned creature. The first thing he did was to check the summoning panel, but he couldn¡¯t help but widen his eyes. [Name: unknown] [Race: unknown] [Level: unknown] [Constitution: unknown] [Strength: unknown] [Spirit: unknown] [Agility: unknown] [Skill: unknown] ¡­ Damn it, after reading a long list of information, the result was all unknown. It was as if he had not read it. Victor King was dumbfounded. For the first time, he felt a little pressured. Everything was unknown? What kind of creature was this? There was no way there would be a bug on the interface, unless the creature was too powerful, so even if Victor King was the summoner, he was not qualified to check it. What kind of creature could have such powerful abilities? From the corner of his eye, Victor King saw the monsters in the Howling Caves hiding in a corner, not daring to show their heads under the pressure. Divine Summoning Spell¡­ Victor King thought of the name of the skill. Could it be that the creature he summoned was a type of divine-tier creature? Of course, this was just a guess. However, judging from the pressure coming from its body, even if it was not a divine-tier creature, it was probably still extremely strong. It was completely different from the pressure he felt from the Boss of the Howling Caves. It was like heaven and earth. There was also a countdown below the summoning bar, showing three minutes. ¡°Three minutes?¡± He could not help but complain. ¡°Isn¡¯t that too little?¡± He was not surprised. If the summoned creature did not have a time limit, with such a powerful existence, he would be able to do whatever he wanted on the entire continent, right? The real world would not allow such an existence that destroyed the balance. Therefore, all summoned creatures had a time limit, which was determined by the summoner¡¯s level and strength. If one¡¯s level and strength were very high, and one¡¯s spiritual power was high, then the longer the summoned creature could stay. The opposite was also true. With Victor King¡¯s current level and strength, three minutes was actually not bad. As long as he continued to increase his level and strength, the time his summoned creatures could stay for would become longer. ¡°I hope I can clear the Howling Caves in three minutes.¡± Chapter 27 Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation Since the summoning only lasted for three minutes, Victor King had to speed up. His gaze fell on the depths of the cave. ¡°Go.¡± As soon as he finished speaking, the black fog began to move. The monsters in the depths of the cave grew more freely, which also meant that they were more powerful and were all above level 15. The black fog spread silently and covered them all in an instant! He did not even hear a wail. Those monsters had already dissipated into the air, not even leaving behind bone fragments. Victor King¡¯s pupils constricted. He finally realized how terrifying the black fog was. He could not help but swallow his saliva. He could see that the creature in the black fog did not move. Just the black fog was already so powerful. If it attacked directly, what would happen? The cave was dark to begin with. At this moment, creatures that were even more powerful than them descended on this land. It was as if an abyss was devouring everything. It was silent. [Your summoned creature has killed a Wailing Monster. Due to the huge difference in level between the summoned creature and the monster in the Secret Realm, the experience gained is only 10 percent of the usual amount.] [Your summoned creature has killed a Wailing Monster. Due to the huge difference in level between the summoned creature and the monster in the Secret Realm, the experience gained is only 10 percent of the usual amount.] ¡­ The sudden notification from the system stunned Victor King. He only enjoyed 10 percent of the experience points! He did not even have half of it! Was he wasting his energy? Victor King was a little speechless. He thought he would hear the notification sound of leveling up, but who would have thought that it would only be so little? ¡°How much difference is there?¡± Victor King could not help but sigh. It seemed that he had thought too simply. However, it did make sense. Otherwise, if there were no restrictions on summoning powerful creatures, all the Secret Realms on the continent would be easily crushed, right? What was the point of that? Victor King was no longer depressed after he understood the reason behind this. Having 10 percent experience was better than nothing. Wherever the black fog passed, everything was drowned in silence. It was as if nothing could stop them. Before the monsters realized what had happened, they had already welcomed death. It was like a walking monster killing machine, and it was the kind with a huge range of damage. Victor King had a feeling that he was lucky to be the person who summoned it. Otherwise, with the black fog¡¯s disrespectful behaviour, he would probably be devoured too. Two minutes later. In just a minute, all the monsters were cleared. The speed was too fast. With the black fog in front of him, Victor King was almost unstoppable. At the same time, the anger of the Boss in the lower right corner reached its peak. A sharp howl came from the deepest part of the cave, and his eardrums were in intense pain. [You have been attacked by the Lord of the Howling Caves¡¯s sound wave.] Victor King saw that he had a buff that caused him to lose HP continuously. This was the troublesome part of the Howling Caves Boss. Anyone who was attacked by its sound waves would continuously lose HP. Moreover, this buff could be stacked, and the speed of the HP loss would become more and more intense. Even the Warrior with the thickest HP would not be able to withstand it. The speed of consuming potions could not keep up with the HP loss. A huge cold wind blew from the depths of the cave, slashing his face like a knife. It was as if there was a huge creature flapping its wings. ¡°Looking at the commotion, the Boss monster shouldn¡¯t be small.¡± Victor King saw a pair of dark beast eyes. Its sharp fangs gleamed coldly in the darkness. Its fur was like the sharpest barbs, and it was covered in a layer of armor. It was a large bat, and its size was beyond common sense. This was the Lord of the Howling Caves. The beast¡¯s eyes were filled with anger, as if it wanted to tear this audacious human into pieces. In its fury, it did not realize that the silent black fog had already invaded every corner of the cave, almost fusing with the walls. Victor King checked the information of the Lord of the Howling Caves. As expected of the final Boss, its attributes were quite good. However, it was unlucky to have met a true monster like Victor King. The giant bat¡¯s wings had yet to fully extend. Its intelligence was higher than those of the small monsters. It had just poked its head out of the deepest cave when it felt a powerful and terrifying aura in the air. The pressure and intimidation that came from its bloodline caused a human-like fear to flash in its beast eyes. It immediately shrank back. Victor King was dumbfounded. ¡°No way. It didn¡¯t even fight, and it just ran away.¡± He had never heard of a Secret Realm Boss running away from a battle, despite all the aggro being on him at the moment. Logically speaking, the Lord of the Howling Caves should have attacked him without hesitation. However, it ran away right in front of him. Victor King was getting more and more curious about the creature he had summoned. What kind of existence could make a Boss of a Secret Realm so afraid? However, no matter how fast this big bat was, it could not be faster than the black fog. Its panicked back was no longer as majestic as before. In the blink of an eye, it was swallowed by the black fog. Screeeeeeeech!! A mournful howl echoed above the cave. Even the final outcome of the Boss of the Secret Realm was similar to those of the small monsters. At the same time, Victor King¡¯s summoning time had reached zero. The magic array pattern appeared once again, and the black fog and the mysterious creature inside disappeared, leaving only endless fantasies. [Your summoned creature has killed the Lord of the Howling Caves. Due to the huge difference in level between the creature and the monster in the secret realm, the experience gained is only 10 percent of the usual amount.] In the end, it was the system prompt that pulled Victor King back. He noticed that the Divine Summoning Spell had already turned gray, indicating that it could not be used. It would probably take some time to cool down. ¡°What kind of creature is it? It¡¯s actually so powerful.¡± Victor King was deep in thought. He hoped that the next time they met, he would be able to figure it out. Although he only enjoyed 10 percent of the EXP, he had killed so many small monsters before, plus the monsters and Boss that died at the hands of the black fog. All the experience accumulated was still very objective. He actually rose to level 15! If it was not for the 10 percent limit, Victor King estimated that he might have been able to go even higher. ¡°Forget it. My leveling speed is terrifying anyway. I don¡¯t have to care about those details. After all, it won¡¯t change anything.¡± Victor King was in a good mood, and his gaze was quickly attracted by the light not far away. The Lord of the Howling Caves was completely devoured by the black fog, and not even a bone fragment was left behind. However, it dropped quite a number of good items. ¡°I wonder if there will be any good equipment this time. It would be best if there are a few more Skill Books.¡± With the divine ring, Victor King could disguise himself as any Class, so he could use any Class skill. Of course, the more Skill Books, the better. Chapter 28 Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation Victor King came to the depths of the cave and saw a few glowing items lying quietly on the ground. [Howling Cape] [Rarity: Blue] [Class requirement: None] [Equipment level: Level 15] [Attributes: Speed +35, defense +25, attack +25, strength +15] [Howling Gloves] [Rarity: Blue] [Class requirement: None] [Equipment level: Level 15] [Attributes: Speed +20, defense +15, attack +15, strength +8] [Howling Bracers] [Rarity: Blue] [Class requirement: None] [Equipment level: Level 15] [Attributes: Speed +20, defense +15, attack +15, strength +8] Victor King had already reached Level 15, so he could equip these. After putting on these pieces of equipment, the entire character panel changed. These pieces of equipment would only drop after successfully clearing the Howling Caves and killing the Lord of the Howling Caves. Moreover, the drop rate was extremely low. They were unique to the Howling Caves, but their attributes were very good. There were seven pieces in the entire set, which were a cape, gloves, bracers, leg guards, weapons, top, and bottom. Some people might not even be able to get a single piece even after dozens of attempts, let alone gather a complete set in a Series. It was almost rare. In any case, they had never seen someone with the entire set. Victor King had dropped three pieces of equipment from the Howling Series, almost half of the total. He could not help but feel that the so-called drop rate was just a decoration in front of him. [Congratulations on collecting three pieces of equipment from the Howling Caves. You will receive a 5 percent bonus to your total attributes] After obtaining four items, it would be 10 percent, and so on. It was the same for the other Secret Realm Series equipment. Usually, if one had three or more pieces, they would be able to obtain additional bonuses. Other than that, there were also many materials dropped. [Howling Caves Lord¡¯s Teeth: The teeth that shed naturally are extremely hard and sharp. They can be used to make equipment or level up.] [Howling Caves Lord¡¯s Fur: The fur that fell from the Lord of the Howling caves. It might be useful.] Victor King put all of them into his backpack. There was so much space anyway, so he might need them in the future. No matter what, this trip to the Secret Realm was a profit. Just one piece of equipment from the Howling Caves was enough to make the trip worth it, not to mention three pieces at once. ¡°Eh, this is-¡± A book with a black cover came into view. If one did not look carefully, it would be easy to miss it. ¡°It¡¯s actually another Skill Book!¡± Victor King did not expect his luck to be this good. The drop rate of the Skill Book was also very low. He had already obtained it from the small monsters, but now, another one had dropped. He used Appraisal to check the skill book¡¯s information. [Beginner Binding: Able to bind an enemy for 3 seconds. The duration will increase as the skill level increases.] It looked like a normal crowd control skill, and it could only bind one enemy. Victor King was disappointed. Single-target crowd control was useless in a group battle. Unless it was a 1v1, it was barely passable. ¡°It¡¯s better than nothing.¡± Victor King thought for a moment. His sisters did not seem to need it, so he might as well learn it himself. He could not help but think of the sudden change that happened when he used the Skill Book previously. He did not know if it would happen again this time. [Beginner Binding successful.] Just as Victor King was feeling a little disappointed, the unfamiliar notification sounded again! [Congratulations to the Host for successfully activating the Earth Bind] Just from the name alone, Victor King knew that it was not simple. When he opened the skill bar and checked the information again, there were already changes. [Earth Bind: The area within 100 meters of the user is the territory. All creatures trapped in the territory will be imprisoned for 3 seconds. As the level increases, the range and time of the territory will also increase.] Victor King was dumbfounded. This was the first time he had seen an AoE skill with such a wide range and unlimited targets. Even Bella¡¯s AoE skills were not at his level. Moreover, both the range and the duration of the imprisonment could be increased. These few seconds should not be underestimated. Even if one was distracted for a moment during the battle, one¡¯s life would be in danger. These three seconds were enough for him to do many things. Victor King was sure that the normal Skill Books would turn into other top-tier skills in his hands. He did not know if it was because of his high luck or something else. ¡°If all skills can be converted, coupled with the Class Disguise of the ring, wouldn¡¯t I be able to use any top-tier skill?¡± Unfortunately, the drop rate of Skill Books was too low, and there was not much circulation on the market. There was not enough for everyone, so how could they sell them? ¡°We can take it slow in the future. At the same time, I¡¯ll ask my sisters to help me keep an eye out.¡± After clearing the Secret Realm, Victor King did not stay for long and came out quickly. It had only taken him about ten minutes to clear the Secret Realm. It was not even enough for him to take a nap. The average time to clear the Howling Caves was more than a few hours. Moreover, this was the speed after clearing it a few times. If it was someone¡¯s first time, they would probably fail. Some teams with low configuration might even take longer. Not to mention that Victor King went in alone and came out so quickly. Everyone thought that he had given up halfway. ¡°Heh, I thought this Kid could last for a long time. I didn¡¯t expect him to come out so soon. I¡¯m afraid he hasn¡¯t even fought the monsters on the first floor. He wasted an opportunity.¡± ¡°I¡¯ve seen a lot of such people. They¡¯re probably newbies who have opened their eyes. You don¡¯t really think that he can clear the entire Secret Realm, do you?¡± The people at the entrance of the Secret Realm were still the same as before. They did not gather any teammates, so they were still waiting here. When they saw Victor King, they only discussed a little and did not take it to heart. When he got home, his sisters had already returned. When they saw Victor King, they quickly went up to him. ¡°Little Brother, where did you go? We were all very worried.¡± After all, Victor King had Awakened as a Bard, so he did not have much combat power. If he encountered any danger, he would not be able to escape. In the eyes of the sisters, Victor King was not very strong. Passing through a Secret Realm like the Howling Caves alone and even killing small monsters along the way was simply a fantasy. Victor King definitely would not tell them that he went into the Secret Realm alone. Otherwise, he would scare them to death. However, the sudden increase in level could not be hidden from others. However, he had already thought of an excuse. ¡°You guys are not here today. Since I have nothing to do at home, I went to hire someone to take me to level up.¡± The sisters looked at Victor King¡¯s level and saw that he had reached level 15. Chapter 29 Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation Since Victor King hid his equipment from the public, no one could see his equipment information. Otherwise, just these few Blue equipment would be enough to attract attention. After all, everyone was wearing White equipment, unlike Victor King, who was wearing several Blue equipment. He was simply a living target. His sisters did not doubt the authenticity of his words, and Victor King did not need to lie to them about such things. Abigail could not help but say, ¡°If you want to level up next time, look for us. Why do you need to look for outsiders? Even a professional booster might not be as fast as ours.¡± ¡°I¡¯m just worried that you guys will be busy.¡± ¡°No matter how busy I am, it¡¯s not as important as you. I¡¯ll bring you to level up tomorrow.¡± Abigail made up her mind and delayed everything. Bella and Catherine also expressed their opinions. Victor King was touched. ¡°You don¡¯t have to do this. You¡¯re delaying your own business.¡± ¡°Your business is our business,¡± Bella said gently. Since he had already said that, Victor King naturally could not refuse. He just had to think about where to level up tomorrow. Bella had wanted to go to the Mage Guild, but rejected them for Victor King. She did not expect Cass to come to her house the next morning. ¡°Miss Bella, didn¡¯t we agree yesterday? I think we still have to continue discussing your high elemental affinity.¡± It was rare to meet such a good seedling, and it was even related to her future. Cass wanted to develop Bella¡¯s potential. He could not waste a single second. Bella smiled apologetically. ¡°I¡¯m sorry, Guild Master Cass. I wanted to bring my brother to level up, so I changed my mind at the last minute.¡± Casa had thought that Bella had something important to do, which was why she suddenly rejected him and came to find him. He did not expect that it was just to help Victor King level up. ¡°So it¡¯s just a small matter. Why do you have to do it yourself? I can get the people from the Mage Guild to help your brother level up. That way, you can have some free time. Wouldn¡¯t that be the best of both worlds?¡± The people from the Mage Guild were powerful, and they were personally appointed by Cass. Their levels were definitely higher than those outside. Bella was a little hesitant. ¡°Isn¡¯t this a waste of talent?¡± ¡°Not at all,¡± Cass quickly said. ¡°It¡¯s their honor to serve Miss Bella.¡± Initially, he thought that Bella would agree, but in the end, she still refused. ¡°I¡¯m sorry, Guild Master Cass. Thank you for your kindness, but since I¡¯ve promised my Little Brother, I can¡¯t go back on my word.¡± In Bella¡¯s heart, her family would always come first, especially Victor King. Everything else had to be placed at the back. ¡°Second Sister, just go. Since Guild Master Cass has said so, and the people he sent might be even more powerful, you don¡¯t have to worry about me.¡± It was only because Victor King¡¯s words were effective that Bella reluctantly relented. ¡°Alright, Guild Master Cass. I promise you that the people you send must take good care of my brother.¡± Cass nodded. ¡°Of course.¡± Right after came Bishop Amanda after hearing the news. ¡°Good day, Miss Emma. We are pressed for time. We just received news that the clergymen from the Capital will arrive soon. I want to explain something to you.¡± Amanda looked at Victor King and the others. It was obvious that there were some things that could not be said here. The Church had always been like this. To outsiders, it was mysterious, showing that it was different from ordinary people. Emma was immediately put in a difficult position. She said softly, ¡°But I promised my Little Brother that I would accompany him to level up.¡± Amanda thought it was something difficult. ¡°That¡¯s easy. I¡¯ll send a few clergymen over. That way, you don¡¯t have to worry.¡± Similar things were still happening. Catherine and Doris were also invited away by Professional Guilds. In the end, only Abigail was left by Victor King¡¯s side. Since things had developed to this point, he simply said, ¡°Big Sister, why don¡¯t you just go and do your own things? I have these guys here. There won¡¯t be any problems.¡± Abigail¡¯s light blue pupils were like the reflection of an iceberg, with a hint of coldness. Only when she looked at Victor King did she show a different kind of gentleness. ¡°It¡¯s okay. Nothing is more important than you. I¡¯ll explain to Dean Blake.¡± As the oldest daughter in the family, Abigail had always been steady and orderly. She would only break the rules when she was facing Victor King. All her gentleness and patience were given to her youngest brother. Abigail held Victor King¡¯s hand. The warmth in her palm seemed to contain endless power. ¡°Let¡¯s go.¡± Victor King felt the softness and smiled bitterly. ¡°I¡¯m not a kid anymore. You¡¯re holding my hand. Are you afraid that I¡¯ll get lost?¡± Although he said that, he did not let go. To be honest, the two of them did not have any similarities in their facial features. They did not look like siblings. The man was handsome and the woman was beautiful. They looked like a match made in heaven. Those who did not know better would think that they were a young couple in love. ¡°Little Brother, have you thought of where to level up?¡± Victor King had already made up his mind when he heard Abigail¡¯s question. From the corner of his eye, he saw the group of people behind him. ¡°There¡¯s a free and powerful labor force. It¡¯s a waste not to use it.¡± Victor King¡¯s target was the level 15-25 leveling area, which was located in the eastern suburbs. It was not far from the novice leveling area. Although it had already been a day, the place was still bustling with activity. It was packed with people, and everyone was busy killing monsters. Victor King¡¯s arrival still attracted a lot of attention. There was no other way. His party was too big, and it was even more eye-catching than yesterday. It was a large group of people, and all of them had extraordinary identities. ¡°Are my eyes playing tricks on me? Aren¡¯t they from the Mage Guild? Why are they here fighting monsters? With their levels, it¡¯s a waste to fight these monsters.¡± Many of the people sent by Cass were close to the First Class Transition. Some of them had even successfully Transitioned. As their levels were too high, they would not receive any EXP from killing the monsters here. Instead, they would be doing work for free. It was simply impossible for them to appear here under normal circumstances. ¡°Maybe they¡¯re here for a quest.¡± ¡°What kind of quests can be done in such a low-level leveling area?¡± Among this group of people, there were a few people who were particularly obvious. They were all wearing white robes with golden lines on the edges. Under the sunlight, they reflected a dazzling light and looked full of holiness. Only the clergymen of the Church would dress like this. Chapter 30 Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation ¡°It seems like it¡¯s Sunday today. Aren¡¯t those people from the Church? They should be attending Church at this time. Why are they loitering around here?¡± ¡°Why are they all standing together? Could it be that the Mage Guild and the Church are working together?¡± ¡°Eh, aren¡¯t these people from the professional guilds? I recognize them all. They seem pretty strong.¡± ¡°If I¡¯m not mistaken, the man in front seems very familiar. He was here yesterday.¡± Everyone was discussing among themselves, and many of them recognized Victor King. They remembered that he had been here yesterday. Most importantly, whether it was the members of the Mage Guild or the clergymen, they all followed his lead. Victor King was the only one who had such a big presence in leveling up and fighting monsters. It could be said that there was no one like him in the past and no one like him in the future. These major forces were all well-known in Peg City, but now they were protecting him. ¡°Where are they going?¡± ¡°It seems like the territory of the Level 15 Flaming Earth Bear is up ahead. Let¡¯s follow them and take a look.¡± Although the major forces in Peg City got along quite well, it was rare to see them interact with each other. The Mage Guild was filled with Mages and there were no other professions. It was definitely a little xenophobic. There was no need to talk about the Church. There were many restrictions. Those clergymen who claimed to be the messengers of God always maintained a distance from ordinary people. They rarely appeared in front of the world and their whereabouts were very mysterious. Amongst them, only the Professional Guilds were slightly better. They were approachable and had all kinds of Awakened Classes. It was quite surprising when the people of the three major forces gathered together. It was no wonder that these people were so curious. Abigail looked at the string of people behind her. ¡°Someone¡¯s following us.¡± Victor King did not mind. ¡°Let¡¯s just follow them. It won¡¯t affect our farming.¡± Since they had already brought so many people here, they did not care about the people who followed them. Most importantly, Abigail did not have to do anything. Someone would do it for them. [You have entered the territory of the level 15 monster, the Flaming Earth Bear] Following the system¡¯s notification, he could vaguely see dozens of creatures covered in flames not far ahead. Upon closer inspection, he realized that the so-called flames were just the flame stripes on their bodies. From afar, they looked like raging flames. These were the Level 15 Flaming Earth Bear. Victor King did not even need to give any instructions. The people from the Mage Guild took the lead and started chanting. However, their chanting speed was much slower than Bella¡¯s. If Bella was here, she would have already cast the spell. Only with a comparison did he know how fast Bella¡¯s casting speed was. A huge bolt of lightning descended from the sky, and those Flaming Earth Bears were instantly electrocuted into charcoal. [Your party member has killed the Flaming Earth Bear. Due to the large difference in level between the party member and the monster, the experience gained will only be 50 percent.] Whether it was a human or a summoned creature, if the level difference was too big, the experience gained would not be complete. Victor King still had 50 percent of the usual experience. However, they had no experience in fighting these low-level monsters. Otherwise, if all the high-level people were allowed to lead the newly Awakened ones, wouldn¡¯t their levels increase in an instant? That was why there was such a rule. It eliminated the possibility of cheating or taking shortcuts to level up. Moreover, the experience required to level up later would increase, so it was not easy to level up later. ¡°Half of the experience is not bad.¡± Victor King remembered that he only got 10 percent in the Howling Caves. After killing this wave of monsters, everyone quickly moved on to the next wave to avoid waiting for these monsters to respawn. It could be said that they were ruthless grinding machines. Although he only gained half of the EXP, they had the advantage in numbers, which could be considered to make up for the shortfall of EXP. This operation stunned the people behind him. They had thought that these people from these forces had some special quest. In the end, they were actually here to help others level up? It could be seen that only Victor King and Abigail had the lowest level in the entire team. The two of them looked extremely relaxed. They did not look like they were here to fight monsters and level up. Instead, they looked like they were on a spring vacation in the suburbs. ¡°Who exactly are these two people? They can actually command the Mage Guild, the Church, and the Professional Guild at the same time.¡± ¡°I¡¯ve never seen anyone with such a great reputation. The three major forces actually brought two people to level up at the same time. How powerful must their background be?¡± ¡°I¡¯m so envious. When will I be able to have such treatment? Isn¡¯t it faster than those level boosting services?¡± ¡°Just think about ordinary people. It¡¯s far from enough to have money to hire these people. You also have to have status. Otherwise, do you think they¡¯re existences that you can casually hire?¡± Everyone was discussing animatedly. Level boosting was level boosting. The people from the three major forces were different. The two could not be compared. Even though there were some low-level Mages in the Mage Guild and the Professional Guilds, it was obvious that the ones they saw were all higher-level ones. Victor King and Abigail, who were the main characters of the discussion, looked calm and relaxed. Abigail could not help but sigh. ¡°No wonder so many people like to hire level boosters. This feels really good.¡± Victor King agreed. ¡°It¡¯s all thanks to Second Sister and Third Sister that we can enjoy such treatment.¡± If it was an ordinary person, it would be good enough to invite one of the forces, and it would cost a huge sum of money, not to mention inviting all three forces at the same time. It was no wonder that in some large families, those juniors would level up very quickly. This was because the resources and conditions were there. The people they hired were naturally the best. Victor King could do whatever he wanted now. All the monsters in the area were no match for him. He and Abigail did not even need to raise their hands. They just needed to watch quietly from the side. ¡°Young Master Victor, do you want to come over and finish off the last hit on these monsters? That way, you can gain more experience.¡± Victor King seemed to have thought of something and shook his head. ¡°Big Sis, you can go and finish him off.¡± He had entered the Secret Realm yesterday, so his level was higher than Abigail¡¯s. He did not need this bit of experience. After the members of the Mage Guild were tired, it was the turn of the members of the Professional Guilds. Their speed was not much different. After all, their levels were there. To these small monsters, they were simply a crushing existence. The few people from the Church rarely talked or fought, but they would occasionally help them recover lost HP. Countless EXP poured into Victor King¡¯s EXP bar, and it did not take long for him to level up. The feeling of being carried was simply too good. Soon, the morning passed, and Victor King leveled up by almost two levels. Chapter 31 Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation The Mage Guild and the Professional Guild sent Victor King and Abigail back home, but Bella and Catherine were not back yet. The rest of the players left one after another. After all, they had their own things to do. They could not spend all their time here leveling with Victor King. It was already incredible that they could spend an entire morning leveling up with Victor King. If it was not for Cass and Amanda¡¯s orders, they would not even be here. Abigail watched them leave and was a little surprised. ¡°They left so soon.¡± ¡°They can¡¯t just keep leveling with us all day, right?¡± It was good that these people left. Victor King was still not used to so many people. After all, he had too many secrets, whether it was the divine ring or his extremely high luck. If he were to accidentally expose a little bit of it, these things would be coveted by people with ill intentions. If things went wrong, it might even bring disaster to the entire family. There was another reason why Victor King did not go for the kill. Although he could gain more EXP with these people¡¯s help, he was also worried that something good might drop. Moreover, he still had a few pieces of Blue equipment on him, and they were equipment unique to the Howling Caves. How could an ordinary Awakened Class gather so many pieces of Blue equipment so quickly? Moreover, these pieces of equipment were not the kind that could be found on the market. If one looked closely, one would realize that they were not simple. Victor King had activated the Equipment Concealment function, but some high-level players or people with special tools could still see his equipment information, so he had to be careful. Abigail seemed to have thought of something. ¡°The drop rate today is so low. Nothing dropped.¡± Other than a pile of experience, they did not gain anything. It was not like when they had been grinding together, where they had dropped a Skill Book. In fact, because they had killed too many monsters, they had even spawned a small boss like the Wolf King. Victor King knew the reason for this. Although he was in the party, he had been lazing around the entire time. He had not even touched a monster, so his luck value naturally would not be of any use. However, he could not tell Abigail directly, so he could only speak tactfully. ¡°It¡¯s not like Lady Luck favors us every day. The drop rate of both Skill Books and materials is very low. The chances of them dropping last time are really very low.¡± Abigail nodded. ¡°That makes sense.¡± Bella, Catherine, and the others did not come back after dinner. They would probably only be home in the evening. There was still an afternoon, so they could not just stay at home. ¡°Let¡¯s continue fighting monsters and leveling in the afternoon,¡± Abigail suggested. Although there were no Mage Guild or Professional Guild members, Abigail was not weak. She had no problem bringing Victor King along to level up. However, her skills were all single-target. If she did not have group attacks, her farming speed would definitely be slower. ¡°It¡¯s best for us to reach the First Transition as soon as possible and complete the Transition.¡± In the early stages of Class Awakening, levels were really important. Whether it was the allocation of the Academy, the various challenges in the Secret Realms, or the various resources, they were all closely related to level. Even if one was half a step behind, the gap would be huge. The Acacia Academy that they were currently in was only a place for those who had yet to become full-time Class Awakened. After they had completed their First Transition, they would have to choose a new academy. Those who were more famous would choose those with higher levels and good Class talent. Such academies usually had powerful teachers to teach them how to use their talents and skills to cultivate and tap into the potential of their students. A top academy was an existence that everyone wanted to enter. Usually, the guidance of a Great Mage or a Great Swordsman would benefit students greatly. However, these academies had very high requirements and criteria. Not everyone could enter. The sisters definitely did not have such concerns. When they Awakened their Classes, they exploded with powerful talents, and they were also Hidden Classes. However, Victor King was in a bit of a pinch. He was a Bard, a publicly acknowledged useless Class. Even ordinary academies did not want it, let alone a top-tier academy like this. Therefore, the most important thing now was to level up as soon as possible. Victor King did not have a problem entering the Secret Realm alone yesterday. Instead of fighting the monsters outside, he might as well continue to enter Secret Realms. ¡°Let¡¯s go to a Secret Realm. The experience gained from killing monsters in the Secret Realm is several times that of the outside world.¡± Abigail was a little surprised to hear Victor King¡¯s words. ¡°Are we going to the Secret Realm on our own? Isn¡¯t this a little too dangerous?¡± she asked hesitantly. Even if Abigail had never been to a Secret Realm, she knew how powerful the monsters in the Secret Realm were. Moreover, it was not something that a few people could enter. Usually, others would form teams with more than ten people in a team. It was not that Abigail was not confident in her own strength, but there were some general conditions for people to clear Secret Realm. Mages, Warriors, Healers, etc. These were all jobs that must be present if they want to clear a Secret Realm. They were responsible for killing monsters, pulling aggro, granting buffs, and even having substitutes when injured. Now, there were only the two of them. She was a Warrior, and Victor King was a useless Bard. If this group went to the Secret Realm, it would not be them hitting monsters, but the monsters hitting the two of them. Victor King knew what Abigail was worried about. ¡°Don¡¯t worry, Sis. Nothing will happen.¡± If Abigail knew that he had entered a Secret Realm alone yesterday and cleared the Howling Caves in less than ten minutes, she would probably be stunned. A hint of worry flashed across Abigail¡¯s blue eyes. It did not matter if she was injured, but if Victor King was injured¡­ ¡°Big Sister, don¡¯t worry. I believe in your ability. Moreover, if it really doesn¡¯t work, we can still leave the Secret Realm halfway.¡± Abigail was a little helpless. She seemed to be the most principled person, but in fact, she doted on her younger brother the most. Her slightly cold blue eyes rippled with a smile, appearing extremely gentle. ¡°Then it¡¯s settled. If there¡¯s any danger, we¡¯ll leave immediately. We definitely can¡¯t stay too long.¡± At most, they would just waste a chance to enter the Secret Realm. She would accompany Victor King to see what the Secret Realm looked like. At least, it would satisfy his curiosity. Abigail thought that Victor King just wanted to go to a Secret Realm on a whim, but she did not know that Victor King had already gone into a Secret Realm. Chapter 32 Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation The two of them were looking at the information about Secret Realms. Victor King would exclude the Howling Caves temporarily. He had already been there once and cleared it. This time, he wanted to go to a new place. ¡°Why don¡¯t we go to the Abandoned Mine?¡± Abigail suggested. ¡°This Secret Realm is only level 10. It should be safe.¡± Victor King shook his head. ¡°The monsters are only level 10 there. I¡¯m already Level 10, so I don¡¯t get much EXP. Let¡¯s not waste time. Why don¡¯t we choose the Gloom Forest?¡± Abigail looked at the introduction of the Gloom Forest and felt a little helpless. ¡°This is a level 20 dungeon. It might be a little dangerous to go here.¡± Although Abigail did not agree, she could not resist Victor King¡¯s request. ¡°With Big Sister here, those monsters will run away in fear.¡± Abigail¡¯s blue pupils rippled with a gentle smile. ¡°You¡¯re so confident. Alright, we¡¯ll do as you say.¡± The Gloom Forest Secret Realm was in the south of the city. There were also a few leveling points nearby. There were quite a lot of people fighting monsters, but the further they went, the fewer people there were. This was because there were all high-level monsters and some Secret Realms inside. A few days had passed, and everyone had been grinding day and night. Now, they were basically level 7 or 8, and the worst was level 5. However, there were fewer people who were level 10 or above. It could be said that those who were able to reach level 10 were all from good families. They had hired professional boosters to help them level up. Otherwise, ordinary people would not be able to level up so quickly. Victor King was an exception. He had five strong sisters. There were actually more than ten people at the entrance of the Secret Realm. Judging from their clothes, they should have some background and were at least Level 10. The person in the lead had long brown hair and carried a longsword on his back. His body flickered with a faint blue light. This light was being emanated by his equipment. It was difficult to ignore him. Victor King checked his information. That guy did not hide anything. He was actually level 13 and had two pieces of Blue equipment on him. His attributes looked pretty good. This kind of person was like a peacock that swaggered through the streets, afraid that others would not know how powerful he was. Although blue equipment was rare, it did not mean that there were no one else with Blue rarity equipment. This guy had two of them, but that was nothing to shout about. Victor King had four pieces, which was a little ridiculous. It seemed like Peg City was full of hidden talents, and there were many Young Masters with good backgrounds. Although their levels and equipment were not as good as Victor King¡¯s, in the eyes of others, they were already at the ceiling. This guy definitely could not be compared to Victor King. Whether it was his super high luck or the godly ring, they were both equivalent to a game bug, so he had no choice but to hide. These people were surprised to see Victor King and Abigail, especially the man in the lead. His eyes never left Abigail¡¯s face. ¡°Beautiful Lady, I am Bill from the Herbert family. Can you tell me your name?¡± Victor King had also heard of the Herbert family. They were one of the top families in Peg City. No wonder they leveled up so quickly and even had Blue equipment. Their powerful family background was obvious. It was said that there was once a Grand Magister in the Herbert family, but that was a hundred years ago, and they were doing quite well now. Bill had also awakened the Hidden Class of a Magic Sword Warrior. The difference between him and an ordinary warrior was that he could enter the Demonized state in battle. Once in the Demonized state, it greatly increases one¡¯s defense and attack power. Its power is dozens of times that of ordinary warriors, and its lethality is extremely powerful. In addition, Bill was a direct descendant, so the Herbert family did their best to nurture him so that he could regain the family¡¯s former glory. Yesterday, they had finally cleared a Secret Realm. Today, they had actually come to the Gloom Forest today to help others level up quickly. Apart from Victor King, Abigail had always been cold to outsiders. Even though the other party was from the Herbert family, she did not seem to hear him and walked past him. Such an attitude was somewhat rude to the people behind Bill. ¡°What is the meaning of this? Our Young Master is asking you a question.¡± Abigail¡¯s blue eyes looked at them like blue icebergs, devoid of any human emotions. The coldness in her eyes could freeze people on the spot, and her voice sounded like it was mixed with ice. ¡°Do I have to answer his question?¡± These words were not polite at all. These guys were instantly furious. They opened their mouths and wanted to say something, but were stopped by Bill. ¡°You have personality.¡± The more Abigail behaved like this, the more interested Bill became. Usually, the women around him were all flattering him, trying to curry favor with him for his family background and power. He was already sick of these kinds of women. Now that he saw Abigail, he felt a sense of novelty. It was probably a man¡¯s desire to challenge and conquer. Bill looked at Victor King with hostility and disdain. Victor King had hidden his equipment and personal information, so he looked ordinary. Other than his appearance, there was nothing special about him. Bill did not bother to even look at Victor King. After all, a person whose level and equipment were not as good as his was simply not worth his attention. ¡°We are preparing to enter the Gloom Forest. I wonder if the Beautiful Lady is interested?¡± Bill extended an olive branch to Abigail. ¡°Under my leadership, I will definitely lead you to successfully clear the Secret Realm.¡± He was sure that Abigail would not refuse. After all, this was a level 20 Secret Realm. Anyone would be tempted by such a shortcut. Abigail hesitated. It was indeed difficult for her and Victor King to clear this Secret Realm, but if Bill was included, it might be different. ¡°I can join your party, but he¡¯s my younger brother. He has to join as well. Otherwise, forget it.¡± After hearing that the two were siblings, Bill¡¯s attitude towards Victor King instantly changed. Although he was still a little arrogant, it was much better than the hostility he had before. ¡°So he¡¯s your younger brother. Naturally, he can join.¡± Bill readily agreed, but the people behind him showed their disapproval. ¡°It¡¯s fine if Young Master brings one person, but if we bring two people, I¡¯m afraid it¡¯ll be a little difficult. Don¡¯t forget that we still have a quest to complete.¡± The Herbert family had sent many of their elites to help Bill clear this Secret Realm. It turned out that there were important materials that Bill needed to collect inside. They were determined to get them. Chapter 33 Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation The Gloom Forest¡¯s Secret Realm was not that easy to deal with. After all, it was a level 20 Secret Realm. Even if they were well-prepared and sent out many powerful combat forces, they were not absolutely confident. Now that there were two more people who did not have much combat strength, they would be a burden, right? Abigail¡¯s appearance was too exquisite, and they thought all she had was her good looks. Victor King also looked very ordinary, and he probably hid it because his personal information was too poor. Bill raised his eyebrows, clearly a little angry. ¡°Are you questioning my decision? Bringing two more people won¡¯t affect anything.¡± The man did not dare to speak again. Although Bill agreed, Victor King¡¯s opinion was the most important. Abigail asked, ¡°Should we go to their team?¡± Bill was a ready-made tool, so there was no reason to reject such a good thing. Victor King nodded. ¡°Let¡¯s follow and take a look.¡± Hence, they joined Bill¡¯s team. The entrance to the Gloom Forest was on a huge rock. Everyone placed their hands on the corresponding position and gently pressed down. As the light of the magic circle lit up, they felt the world spin. When they opened their eyes again, the scenery in front of them had changed drastically. [You have entered the Secret Realm: Gloom Forest] The sky was gloomy, as if it was about to fall, and it was so heavy that it was almost suffocating. The originally lush trees were covered in a layer of gray shadows. In a daze, it looked like a giant creature was lying in ambush in the corner, staring at the group of adventurers like a tiger eyeing its prey. It was said that the Gloom Forest Secret Realm was not like this many years ago. It used to be sunny and lush, but for some reason, a disaster suddenly descended on this land. All the animals and plants had mutated to varying degrees, becoming extremely terrifying and ugly. At the same time, their strength had also increased. As soon as they stepped into the forest, they felt an inexplicable sense of danger. It was the instinctive reaction of the body to danger. Looking around, there were twisted vines and dried branches everywhere. From afar, they looked like countless strange-looking creatures. If one¡¯s mental ability was weak, one would probably be frightened by such a scene. Bill came to Abigail¡¯s side. He already knew Abigail¡¯s name. ¡°Miss Abigail, please let me protect you. With me around, I will never let you get hurt.¡± After saying that, he wanted to grab Abigail¡¯s hands, but Abigail¡¯s scabbard blocked him. Bill, who wanted to close the distance, only touched the cold scabbard. ¡°I¡¯m sorry, I¡¯m not used to interacting with others.¡± These words were a little double standard. Before this, she was holding hands with Victor King. Hearing this, Victor King could not help but smile. Abigail was as cold as ice, but Bill did not get angry and tried to curry favor with her. Not far away, there was a slight movement, and everyone immediately fell into a state of vigilance. ¡°Be careful, there might be some small monsters.¡± Someone on the team reminded them. Almost as soon as he finished speaking, several wolf-like creatures appeared in front of them. These wolves looked very strange. Some had two heads, some had three eyes, and some did not even have tails. It was as if they had been randomly pieced together by someone. However, their fangs were extremely sharp, reflecting the cold light in the air. They looked like they could rip off a person¡¯s throat with a single bite. Their stinky saliva flowed down, and they looked at Victor King and the others with drool. The Dark Wolf was a level 15 monster known for its speed and attack. Abigail subconsciously stood in front of Victor King and protected him behind her. In the blink of an eye, a few wolves quickly rushed in front of everyone. This team was well-trained. It was obvious that they had cooperated many times. They were not flustered at all in this situation. The Warriors with high HP and defense came to the front to block their attacks. At the same time, they bought time for the Mages to cast their spells. There were even Archers and Healers on the team. They were well-equipped. Red flames descended from the sky and landed on the bodies of these Dark Wolves. They let out a painful howl and quickly fell to the ground. Bill rushed forward without hesitation, wanting to show off in front of Abigail. He waved his blue longsword like a tiger and killed a small monster in a few minutes. He even turned around from time to time. ¡°Miss Abigail, I¡¯m here. Don¡¯t be afraid. I¡¯ll protect you.¡± He was tall and muscular. Coupled with the huge sword he wielded, his movements were clean and neat, adding a little handsomeness. If he was outside, he would indeed cause some little girls to scream. Abigail was different from ordinary little girls. Her exquisite face was expressionless, and there was even a hint of disgust in her blue eyes. In her eyes, this Bill could not compare to even a strand of Victor King¡¯s hair. ¡°Did this guy just get out of the oil field? Isn¡¯t he a little too greasy? Moreover, is there a problem with his eyesight? Why does he say that I¡¯m afraid?¡± Faced with Abigail¡¯s harsh comments, Victor King held back his laughter. It was obviously a little difficult. The two of them were right behind the group, as if they were watching a show. From time to time, they would even comment on it. Those who did not know better would think that they were really here for an outing. ¡°The overall strength of this team is relatively strong, especially the few people at the back. I think they¡¯re already around level 25.¡± This was only Victor King¡¯s conservative estimate. Perhaps the actual level was even higher. It was no wonder that Bill was so confident and even felt that it did not matter if he had two burdens in his party. He had the capital. Victor King fell into deep thought. ¡°The Herbert family spent so much effort to send such a high-level elite here. It shouldn¡¯t be just to clear this Secret Realm.¡± Although the experience gained from killing monsters in the Secret Realm was higher than outside, it would also take longer. Moreover, there were many variables in clearing these sorts of dungeons. If he failed to clear this Secret Realm and left halfway, the experience reward he had obtained would all become 50 percent. It was not worth it. Abigail understood what Victor King was implying. ¡°You mean the Herbert Family is planning something else?¡± Victor King rubbed his chin. ¡°I think so. Otherwise, why would he choose the Gloom Forest when there are other 20 simpler Secret Realms?¡± Bill and the others definitely had other motives. Victor King could not tell what it was. Chapter 34 Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation The way Victor King and Abigail talked in a low voice was a little annoying to the others. They were fighting monsters here, but these two were slacking off in the team. They really thought that the teammates were free labor, and they were going on an outing here. Abigail had a beautiful face, so it was inevitable that everyone would take care of her, but what about Victor King? A good-for-nothing who relied on his sister to get in. Some of them had bad intentions and wanted to lure the monsters to Victor King. The whole team was originally airtight in order to protect the weaker Mages and Healers. These two classes could not afford to let the monsters get close to them, or they would be in danger. They moved to the side to ensure that the Mages in the team would not be affected, while exposing Victor King to the monsters¡¯ attack range. Unknowingly, a small hole in the team¡¯s formation appeared where Victor King was. As if it was an accident, one of them did not cast a spell accurately, and a Dark Wolf suddenly barged in. Everyone quickly retreated. Victor King was the closest to the monster, and he was right in front of it. It was too late to dodge. Abigail¡¯s reaction was the most timely, and she appeared in front of Victor King at lightning speed. The sharp wolf claws were right in front of Abigail, but she did not even blink. Her light blue pupils were like a calm lake. If this claw landed, there would probably be a few more terrifying marks on this beautiful face. ¡°Be careful!¡± Bill immediately revealed a pained expression. He did not want to see such a beautiful face get scratched, so he immediately wanted to be a hero and save the damsel in distress. In an instant, Abigail¡¯s body emitted a golden light. It seemed to be a shield. The sharp claws hit the shield like an egg hitting a rock. Not to mention breaking, there was not even a scuffed pattern on the shield. On the contrary, a few of the wolf claws were broken. Without the sharp claws, the Dark Wolf was like a tiger without its teeth. The danger was greatly reduced. Everyone was dumbfounded and looked at the scene in front of them in disbelief. They thought that they were hallucinating. ¡°Is that a shield? The defense is too thick!¡± If they had not seen the Dark Wolf¡¯s claw break with their own eyes, they would not have believed that such a ridiculous thing had happened. They had never heard of a monster hitting a shield and injuring itself. The golden light reflected on Abigail¡¯s face, giving her a holy aura. Even her blue eyes were tainted with a faint golden light, as if the Sun Goddess had descended, brightening the originally dark scene. A huge sword appeared in her hand. What happened next subverted everyone¡¯s understanding and common sense. Abigail¡¯s speed was unbelievably fast. No one saw how she attacked. They only heard the sound of a sharp blade piercing through the air. The longsword accurately pierced the heart of the Dark Wolf. The entire process only took a few seconds. It was even faster than the speed at which the Mages in their party killed the monsters. It was almost an insta-kill! Everyone was dumbfounded as they watched the Dark Wolf¡¯s corpse slowly fall. Bill thought that Abigail was just superficial, but he did not expect her to be a hidden monster. He could not help but swallow his saliva. He did not expect Abigail to be so fierce. Then, his eyes lit up. Abigail¡¯s actions were really cool and beautiful, adding an indescribable charm. If Bill was only mesmerized by Abigail¡¯s face earlier, he was completely mesmerized by her now. ¡°Honorable Miss Abigail, your beauty and strength coexist. I feel like I¡¯ve fallen into the river of love, swept away by you.¡± In the face of Bill¡¯s bold and passionate confession, even the usually calm and elegant Abigail could not help but roll her eyes. Previously, Abigail was also very popular in the Academy. However, due to her coldness and arrogance, no one dared to say too much in front of her. Bill did not know how to read her expression. He continued to praise Abigail, which was really annoying. Victor King coughed a few times and interrupted Bill¡¯s chatter. ¡°I think we should move on. We don¡¯t have to waste time here.¡± Bill, who was interrupted, was obviously a little unhappy. He always had the last word in the team, and no one had dared to be so bold. When he saw that it was Victor King, he forcefully suppressed his displeasure. After all, he was the younger brother of the Goddess. He had to perform better. Bill smiled kindly. ¡°Of course.¡± Everyone continued to move forward. No one noticed that behind them, there was a pair of dark beast eyes silently staring at everything here. The coldness and bloodthirstiness in them made people shudder. Victor King sensed something and turned around, but he did not see anything. There was a tall bush behind him, and under the twisted shadow, there seemed to be something hiding. Seeing Victor King suddenly stop, Abigail asked, ¡°What¡¯s wrong?¡± Victor King shook his head and suppressed the doubt in his heart. ¡°It¡¯s nothing. Maybe I was wrong.¡± He had a feeling that there was a pair of eyes staring at them in the dark. The team had exhausted a lot of energy dealing with the Dark Wolf, but they were not injured. With the help of the Support Mages in the team, they quickly recovered and continued to move forward. Unexpectedly, other than the Dark Wolf¡¯s attack, the rest of the journey was very peaceful. They did not see any other monsters. The Gloom Forest was a very large Secret Realm. They had not even covered one-third of the journey. It would obviously take a lot of time to clear the entire Secret Realm. ¡°That¡¯s strange. Why haven¡¯t we seen any monsters? Did we scare them all away?¡± Bill was a little proud. ¡°Everyone says that the Gloom Forest is very difficult. In my opinion, it¡¯s just so-so. I think we¡¯ll be able to clear the Secret Realm soon.¡± His gaze fell on Abigail. ¡± Beautiful Miss Abigail, I wonder if I can have dinner with you after we clear the Secret Realm?¡± Abigail was already able to keep her expression unchanged in the face of Bill¡¯s words, as if she had not heard him. She originally thought that this person would retreat if she made things difficult, but she did not expect him to be so thick-skinned. ¡°If you don¡¯t say anything, I¡¯ll take it that you agree.¡± Victor King frowned and rejected him. ¡°My sister doesn¡¯t like to eat with others.¡± Even though Victor King was Abigail¡¯s younger brother, Bill was still a little unhappy when he was interrupted again and again. His face immediately darkened. However, before he could say anything¡­ A cry of surprise came from not far away, as if they had made a new discovery. Chapter 35 Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation ¡°What¡¯s wrong?¡± Bill could not care less about Victor King. He walked over to take a look, and his expression changed slightly. Victor King and Abigail walked over and finally understood why they looked like this. It was a huge snakeskin. The colorful patterns looked very scary, and there were scales that had fallen off around it. The snakeskin looked quite new, and it was obvious that it had just been shed not long ago. ¡°How can there be such a huge snake? The monster¡¯s level is probably over 20, right?¡± ¡°Let¡¯s be careful and leave this place quickly. The monster might be nearby.¡± Although they were high-level and powerful, it did not mean that they were invincible. This was the first time they had seen such a large monster. A stinky smell came from behind, accompanied by a slight rustling sound. Victor King reacted in time and quickly pulled Abigail to the side to hide. An afterimage flashed past the corner of his eye. The black scales were like hard armor. Its speed was too fast. By the time everyone noticed it, it had already disappeared into the dense forest. All they could see was a slender and thick tail that was densely covered with spikes, leaving an indelible impression on them. ¡°What the hell was that just now!¡± Everyone was shocked. ¡°I¡¯m afraid it¡¯s too late to leave now. We¡¯ve encountered the monster.¡± Everyone looked over and saw that it was Victor King who said it. As if to agree with what he said, the monster hidden in the dark attacked again. Shadows suddenly blotted out the sky, and this time, everyone finally saw what the monster that ambushed them looked like. The huge triangular snake head stared coldly at them with its green pupils. It carried the bloodthirst and cruelty unique to beasts, making people shudder, especially its body hidden in the dense forest. They could only see its head and not its tail, so no one knew how big its body was. The rustling sound of scales rubbing against the ground made one¡¯s scalp go numb. Especially when one was stared at by that pair of beast eyes, it was as if one had seen the arrival of the God of Death. Even Bill, who had a good mental fortitude, could not help but gasp. ¡°How can there be such a big snake?¡± ¡°The information we investigated previously did not say that there would be such a monster in the Gloom Forest. What exactly is going on?¡± Victor King was probably the calmest person in the room. If he had no other choice, he would use the Divine Summoning Spell. It was already off cooldown. However, according to the current situation, he did not need to resort to that yet. Abigail tensed up and shielded Victor King behind her. She could feel the power of this monster and warned Victor King carefully, ¡°This snake is very strong. You have to be careful.¡± Someone threw a probing skill over and immediately obtained information about the Nine Netherworld Black Python. [Nine Netherworld Black Python (level 35): A monster that appears in the Gloom Forest from time to time] For a moment, Bill was so angry that he almost cursed. ¡°What the hell! We¡¯re so unlucky to encounter such a thing.¡± There was a type of monster that would not stay in a certain place but wander randomly. For example, the Nine Netherworld Black Python they had encountered was one of them. It did not belong to the Gloom Forest, but they happened to bump into it. They could only blame themselves for being too unlucky. If it was a level 25 monster, they could still fight it. However, the problem was that this python was level 35. Its overall attributes were even higher than before. Their group might not be able to deal with it. Even the cocky Bill was not confident. If they had to fight this monster, they would have to pay an unimaginable price. It was not worth it. However, it would be too embarrassing if they left the Secret Realm in front of Abigail. Moreover, they would waste a chance to enter the Secret Realms, so they could only choose to run. The body of the Nine Netherworld Black Python moved at an unbelievable speed. An afterimage flashed past in front of them, bringing with it a foul-smelling wind. Everyone¡¯s nerves became tense. As expected of a level 35 monster, its speed was too fast. The others on the team were not so lucky. ¡°Ah!¡± A scream pierced through the sky. Someone was accidentally ambushed by the snake¡¯s tail, and his entire body was suspended in the air. The huge snake¡¯s body coiled around him like a dough twist. He was also a Warrior, and with just a slight curl of his tail, more than half of his HP was gone. If it was a fragile Mage, he would probably be dead by now. The others were all scared silly by this scene. ¡°What are you guys standing there for? Hurry up and attack.¡± This man¡¯s combat power was quite high, and his level was not bad. He was an important figure in the Herbert family. Bill could not just watch him die here. Only then did the others come back to their senses and throw their skills in a flurry. The huge fireball smashed onto the body of the Nine Netherworld Black Python, but it did not even leave a mark, let alone break its defense. It was like a small spark that did not cause any wind or waves. Bill¡¯s expression was extremely ugly. ¡°Everyone else, attack together!¡± Mages began to chant their skills. Arrows, various elements, magic, and physical attacks landed on the body of the python. However, its body was too big and its defense was high. ¡°No, Young Master Bill. The defense of the Nine Netherworld Black Python is too high. We won¡¯t be able to break it.¡± Bill and the others¡¯ attacks were like tickles to the Nine Netherworld Black Python. Although they could not cause any damage, they were very annoying. The snake¡¯s tail quickly released the person who had been bound earlier. At this moment, his face was already red and green. If he continued to be entangled by the Nine Netherworld Black Python, he would probably suffocate to death. However, Bill and the others were a little unlucky. The huge snake¡¯s tail smashed down, and dust instantly flew everywhere. A huge pit appeared on the ground. If they had not dodged in time, they would have already become meat paste. ¡°Isn¡¯t this a little too fierce?¡± Everyone had lingering fears. They wanted to escape, but the Nine Netherworld Black Python would not let them off easily. How could it let prey run away? Abigail held Victor King¡¯s hands. ¡°Let¡¯s go too.¡± Bill threw a magic scroll in the direction of the Nine Netherworld Black Python. It was engraved with ancient patterns and symbols. This was a high-level magic scroll that he had bought at a high price on the market. It was a one-time-use item that contained powerful magic power. He had originally planned to use it at the end when he fought the Boss as a trump card. He did not expect to use it here. He immediately revealed a pained expression. It could be seen that this spell scroll had really cost a lot of money. A deafening clap of thunder rang out, as if the entire ground was shaking. A huge amount of lightning power suddenly erupted, and the surrounding area was submerged in lightning. Chapter 36 Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation There was such a tool on the market, which were scrolls. There were many types of scrolls, such as attack, defense, teleportation, and so on. For example, when creating an attack scroll, one had to seal a spell within it. With the addition of a magic array, the scroll could be used temporarily to unleash immense power. These items were all one-time-use items, and the conditions and materials required to make the scrolls were extremely costly. Although they were available on the market, they were quite expensive. Ordinary people could not afford them. Not to mention the one in Bill¡¯s hand. It looked relatively high-grade, and its power was indeed extraordinary. The sea of lightning surged and interweaved, trapping the Nine Netherworld Black Python within. Even the gloomy sky was divided into countless pieces. Several thick bolts of lightning shot out from the scroll and struck the snake¡¯s body. Many scales immediately fell off, and a stench filled the air, as if something had been burnt. Because of the pain, the huge snake¡¯s body rolled around, and many trees were snapped by the tail. The scene immediately became very messy, and everyone hurriedly dodged the swinging tail. Unfortunately, the body of the Nine Netherworld Black Python was too big and too long. Those who were not careful would be affected. One had to know that this spell scroll contained the power of lightning of a Second Transition Great Mage. Logically speaking, it should be more than enough to deal with this level 35 monster. Unexpectedly, it only left traces on its scales. Although it broke through the python¡¯s defense, it did not seriously injure it. The scroll¡¯s active time was limited. The power of the lightning spell could not be released forever. At this moment, the lightning was no longer as terrifying as before. It gradually became much smaller, which meant that the power in the scroll was about to be exhausted. When the lightning completely disappeared, the scroll would disappear. ¡°Hurry up and run.¡± Everyone ran away in a hurry. It was fine as long as they were far away from the Nine Netherworld Black Python. However, before they could run far, they heard angry roars coming from behind them. Bill¡¯s expression immediately stiffened, and the others also looked as if they had seen a ghost. ¡°How did it catch up so quickly!¡± The Second Transition Great Mage¡¯s lightning scroll only lasted for five minutes, not even that! If they had not witnessed the power of lightning with their own eyes, they would have thought that Bill had bought a fake product. If Bill had known that this scroll was useless, he would not have used it from the start. He had wasted such a precious scroll. Bill was so angry that his face was crooked. He thought that he could buy some time to escape, but it did not work. The Nine Netherworld Black Python¡¯s speed was too fast. It could not care less about the trees in front of it that covered the sky. Its snake body crushed it like a crazy machine. Countless trees collapsed, and at the same time, some scales that had been struck by lightning fell, revealing the red flesh inside. The beast¡¯s eyes were filled with anger. It wanted to swallow the little bug in front of it alive. It never thought that these inconspicuous humans would cause it such harm. Although it was not a fatal wound, it was undoubtedly a great humiliation. ¡°Damn it, this monster is catching up. If we stick together like this, we will definitely be caught.¡± Bill made a prompt decision. ¡°Let¡¯s split up and run.¡± Even now, he still had not forgotten about Abigail and reached out his hand to her. ¡°Miss Abigail, please come to my side. I will protect you from any harm.¡± Abigail pulled Victor King and chose the opposite direction without hesitation. She had wanted to leave for a long time. If it was not for the fact that she wanted to avoid falling out with these people, she would have left long ago. This would be a good opportunity for her to do so. Bill wanted to chase after her, but the person behind him urged him, ¡°Young Master Bill, hurry up and leave. The Nine Netherworld Black Python is about to catch up.¡± Although a beautiful woman was important, life was more important. Bill could only give up. Victor King and Abigail were completely separated from the main group, which was exactly what they wanted. After running for a long time, Victor King stopped. ¡°It seems like the python hasn¡¯t caught up. Let¡¯s take a break.¡± Level 35 monsters were too terrifying. They were almost as powerful as World Bosses. Even the Bosses of the Gloom Forest were nothing compared to the black python. [You have left the team] Victor King was stunned when he saw the system notification. Where did he and Abigail run off to? Abigail received the same notification. ¡°That¡¯s good. I¡¯ve wanted to leave for a long time, so as not to have to listen to that Bill¡¯s yapping.¡± If it were not for the Herbert family, Abigail would have stabbed Bill in the mouth. Victor King looked around. ¡°Where are we?¡± The Gloom Forest dungeon was indeed famous for its vast map. The environment before him was extremely unfamiliar, completely different from the previous one. There was a swamp nearby with green gas floating on it. It should be the miasma produced. It looked very dangerous. If one approached it, they might be poisoned. The air was very humid, and even the soil was soft when stepped on. Fortunately, there were no monsters nearby. However, Abigail did not let her guard down in case anything unexpected happened. The two of them avoided the swamp and walked in the opposite direction. Not long after, a huge cave came into view, emitting a faint aura. Victor King was curious. ¡°Let¡¯s go in and take a look.¡± Abigail disagreed. ¡°Is it dangerous inside? Let¡¯s leave first.¡± Since they were already here, there was no reason for them to leave. Under Victor King¡¯s insistence, Abigail had no choice but to agree. ¡°You will stand behind me later. If anything goes wrong, we will leave immediately.¡± Although Victor King agreed verbally, he was thinking that if there was really a problem that he could not deal with, he could just use the summoning spell again. Anyway, it was fine to expose it in front of Abigail. The two of them carefully walked into the cave. Drip- The water droplets on the stalactite dripped down and formed small puddles on the ground. The cave was very big, but fortunately, the two of them had lighting tools, so they could barely see the surrounding environment. The cave was very large, and the path extended into the distance. No one knew where it would lead to. Only the sound of their footsteps could be heard. Other than that, it was silent. Fortunately, there were no monsters inside. Victor King seemed to have noticed something. His gaze locked onto the ground, and his expression changed slightly. Chapter 37 Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation Although the light was a little dim, it was not difficult to see the scales and skin on the ground clearly. Some of the snake¡¯s scales and skin seemed to have fallen off naturally, just like the Nine Netherworld Black Python they had seen earlier. Abigail¡¯s expression also became a little solemn. ¡°Don¡¯t tell me we¡¯ve come to the nest of the Nine Netherworld Black Python.¡± Logically speaking, a wandering monster would not have a fixed nest because it was always wandering and shuttling through various Secret Realms. However, it was really strange that they had seen it now. However, from the signs at the scene, it was most likely the nest of the Nine Netherworld Black Python. Abigail¡¯s first reaction was to leave. ¡°Let¡¯s go quickly. It¡¯ll be troublesome if the python comes back.¡± For the Nine Netherworld Black Python, they were like snacks sent to its doorstep. Victor King was bold. ¡°Since we¡¯re already here, we definitely have to take a look. Maybe there¡¯s something good.¡± ¡°What if the Nine Netherworld Black Python comes back later?¡± Abigail hesitated. ¡°Wouldn¡¯t we be caught red-handed?¡± At that time, the two of them would probably be in danger. They would fall into the snake¡¯s mouth and not be able to escape. Victor King was not worried. ¡°The python didn¡¯t catch up just now. Obviously, it went after Bill and the others. With them holding it back, it shouldn¡¯t return to its nest for a while. We can make use of the time.¡± He guessed that it was because of his extremely high luck value that the Nine Netherworld Black Python did not target them. In addition, Bill had used the scroll and angered the Nine Netherworld Black Python, so it kept staring at them. According to the hatred of the Nine Netherworld Black Python, it would probably not return in a short period of time. If it did not torture Bill and the others, how could it dispel the hatred in its heart? These people could only pray for themselves. After hearing Victor King¡¯s analysis, Abigail felt that it made sense. ¡°Big Sister, there might be some treasure in this nest.¡± If there really was one, then they had simply lucked out this time. The two of them continued deeper into the darkness. The ground was full of potholes, and their light source was limited. Abigail lost her footing and was about to fall. Fortunately, Victor King quickly pulled her back. However, they did not expect that under the effect of inertia, the two of them would fall to the ground together. Victor King felt a soft body pressing against him. Her waist was like the spring water on the bank of the Seine Lake, and it was even softer. Along with the fragrance, it entered his nose. In the darkness, be it touch or smell, everything seemed to be magnified infinitely. The distance between the two of them was extremely close, and their breaths seemed to be intertwined. Their hot breaths sprayed on their ears, as if feathers had brushed past them. Abigail blushed. She had never been so close to a man before. Fortunately, the light was dim. Otherwise, Victor King would have been able to see that her entire body was like a pink plum blossom blooming. Even her cold blue eyes had a faint spring light. Abigail quickly got up from the ground. The atmosphere was a little awkward. In the end, Victor King coughed a few times and broke the silence. ¡°Are you okay, Sis?¡± Abigail shook her head and pretended that nothing had happened. ¡°I¡¯m okay. Let¡¯s go.¡± The red tips of her ears hidden in her golden hair betrayed her restless mood. She did not know if it was her imagination, but she actually felt that the temperature had risen. This was clearly the nest of an ice-cold creature, but she could feel the heat waves in the air getting higher and higher. It was really a little illogical. She touched her face and it was burning up. Fortunately, Victor King did not seem to notice anything. However, whenever she thought of the feeling of being surrounded by male hormones, Abigail¡¯s heart would beat faster. The two of them continued to walk forward. Probably because the aura of the Nine Netherworld Black Python was still lingering here, no small monsters dared to approach. It was surprisingly safe along the way. Soon, the two of them reached the end of the path. After seeing the scene in front of her clearly, Abigail¡¯s light blue pupils flashed with shock. She said in disbelief, ¡°This is¨C¡± What appeared in front of the two of them was a long vine. It looked extremely soft and there were many plants on it, forming a nest. Most importantly, there was an egg on it. It was crystal clear and looked like some kind of artwork. Victor King finally understood why the wandering monster, the Nine Netherworld Black Python, would build a nest here. It was because it was about to lay eggs, and it happened to choose the Gloom Forest. The Nine Netherworld Black Python had a strong offensive ability, not to mention that it had just given birth. In order to protect its babies, it would be aware of all potential enemies and dangers around it. Bill and the others would be in trouble. Abigail could not suppress her curiosity. ¡°Is this the egg of the Nine Netherworld Black Python?¡± ¡°Probably.¡± Victor King threw a detection skill over, and it was as they had guessed. [Nine Netherworld Black Python Egg (Unhatched)] In this place, one could sign contracts with monsters and take them as pets and familiars. The familiars would become the combat partners of the Class Awakened people. Using special methods to tame wild monsters required a certain amount of tools. The success rate was not 100 percent, and there was also the risk of failure. However, if it was in this state where it had not yet hatched, it would be much simpler. He only needed to drip his blood on the eggshell. These monsters had yet to be born. Although they had intelligence, they did not have a strong sense of resistance. The stronger the monster, the more difficult it was to bind it with a contract, and the higher the chance of failure. It was not easy to obtain a powerful Battle Pet. After all, these wild monsters were unruly and difficult to tame. However, it was rare to see them in this state. After all, not everyone had the courage to explore the level 35 Nine Netherworld Black Python¡¯s cave and was lucky enough to encounter its unprotected egg. It could only be said that the Goddess of Luck was very fond of him. ¡± Alright, ¡± Abigail said without hesitation. ¡°Little Brother, hurry up and contract it.¡± This kind of egg was very rare, not to mention that it belonged to a Nine Netherworld Black Python. It was an extremely powerful Battle Pet in the early stages and could enhance its master¡¯s combat strength. Abigail was not tempted at all. The first person she thought of was Victor King. ¡°It just so happens that your Class¡¯s attack power is not high. With the Nine Netherworld Black Python as a pet, if you nurture it with all your strength, it can guarantee your safety. At least if you encounter danger, your pet can block it for you.¡± Victor King did not hesitate. He dripped his blood on the snake egg and soon heard the system notification. [Congratulations on contracting the Nine Netherworld Black Python Egg (unhatched)] Another special notification followed. [Your pet egg has undergone some strange changes.] When Victor King went to check again, the name of the egg was now a question mark. [Name: ?? (Unhatched)] Chapter 38 Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation It was obviously the egg of the Nine Netherworld Black Python, but its name was unknown. Victor King was a little surprised. It was just like the Skill Books he had obtained previously. Ordinary Skill Books had mutated later on. Could it be that this Nine Netherworld Black Python egg had also mutated? Looking at the system notification, Victor King had many questions in his mind. The snake egg had not hatched yet, so he was not sure if this strange change would make the egg more powerful like the previous Skill Book, or if it was just an accident. He might have to wait until it hatched before it could be seen. Just as Victor King was thinking, Abigail¡¯s voice brought him back to his senses. ¡°What are you thinking about?¡± Victor King did not mention the system notification. ¡°The Nine Netherworld Black Python laid its eggs in its nest. Obviously, it won¡¯t leave for too long. We have to leave quickly. Otherwise, it won¡¯t be good if we run into it.¡± Abigail felt that it made sense and urged, ¡°Then let¡¯s hurry up and leave.¡± There was nothing else in the cave except for the egg. Victor King saw a few plants beside the nest from the corner of his eye. They were like small flowers and grass on the roadside. They looked very inconspicuous and there was nothing special about them. However, how could it be an ordinary plant that could grow next to the nest of the Nine Netherworld Black Python? Seeing that Victor King was not in a hurry to leave, but went to pick some grass, Abigail could not understand his actions. ¡°We can¡¯t waste any more time. Let¡¯s hurry up and leave.¡± Staying here for a second longer meant more danger. Victor King shook his head. ¡°Don¡¯t underestimate these plants. They are very precious. They can cure the poison of the Nine Netherworld Black Python.¡± Abigail could not believe it. ¡°Just these few? How is that possible?¡± They looked very ordinary, no different from weeds. There was an old saying that went: If a poisonous snake appears, there must be an antidote within ten steps. This cave was so dark and damp that it was not suitable for plants to grow. Most importantly, Victor King also noticed traces of saliva around him. It was obviously secreted by the Nine Netherworld Black Python. Although it was not that poisonous, there was still a faint poison in it. However, these plants were growing happily. They were not affected by the surrounding environment at all. They were obviously strange. After listening to Victor King¡¯s analysis, Abigail also felt that it made sense. ¡°It¡¯s a good thing that you know a lot. Otherwise, we would have missed it.¡± If he was accidentally bitten and poisoned by the Nine Netherworld Black Python, he might be able to use this to detoxify himself. Abigail also helped him pick it. In just a moment, the surrounding plants were swept clean. The two of them quickly left the cave. Perhaps even the heavens were on their side. Not long after Victor King left, the Nine Netherworld Black Python returned to the cave. Seeing the empty nest, a huge flame burst out of the beast¡¯s eyes, carrying a faint scarlet color. The angry roar of the beast filled the entire forest, and even the cave almost collapsed. The Nine Netherworld Black Python rushed out of the cave at lightning speed. Its huge body crushed the ground, causing the ground to tremble. Countless tall trees collapsed with the sound. It was enough to show how angry it was. Some people were probably going to be unlucky. Victor King and Abigail had already walked far away and were completely unaware of the commotion behind them. Abigail¡¯s calm face was a little nervous. She turned around to take a look. Fortunately, the Nine Netherworld Black Python did not chase after them. ¡°That was close. Do we still have to continue exploring the Secret Realm?¡± As soon as she finished speaking, a soft rustling sound came from the grass not far away. Abigail¡¯s nerves immediately tensed up, thinking that the Nine Netherworld Black Python had caught up. ¡°Be careful!¡± As she cried out in surprise, the thing that popped its head out was actually an incomparably huge lizard. It was as big as a crocodile. It had two heads, one red and the other blue. It looked extremely strange as it stared at Victor King and Abigail. Abigail could not help but heave a sigh of relief. It was fine as long as it was not the Nine Netherworld Black Python. [Dark Two-Headed Lizard: Level 20] They could barely deal with this kind of monster, but they could not underestimate it. After all, it was a level 20 monster. If they encountered the Nine Netherworld Black Python, they would probably have no choice but to run. The lizard opened its mouth wide, and flames fell from the sky like meteors. A huge pit was quickly formed on the ground. Victor King and Abigail quickly dodged the fireballs, leaving nothing but scorched earth in their wake. The surrounding temperature gradually rose, causing Victor King and Abigail¡¯s faces to turn red. Just as Victor King was about to be hit by a huge fireball, the giant sword blocked in front of him and cut the fireball in half. Countless small sparks flew out and splashed on the ground. Abigail¡¯s long golden hair was illuminated by the flames, revealing a scorching color that was even more dazzling. If one ignored the two-headed lizard monster in front of them, the scene would still be quite beautiful. The fiery meteor fell from the sky, and the dark sky became beautiful. ¡°Are you alright?¡± Victor King shook his head. ¡°Don¡¯t worry about me.¡± Abigail¡¯s blue pupils were filled with anger. The monster could hurt her, but it was not allowed to hurt Victor King. Amidst the huge flames, she was like the legendary Goddess of War, advancing fearlessly. ¡°I can also try to see what it¡¯s like to fight a level 20 monster.¡± With the protection of the shield, the flames could not hurt Abigail. However, the high temperature around her dyed her face with a gorgeous color, as if there were colorful clouds falling on it. She looked like a rose blooming in the flames. Her heroic and fearless figure was imprinted in Victor King¡¯s eyes. It was really stunning. Victor King was also worried that Abigail would be injured. If the situation was not good, he would immediately use the summoning spell. However, Victor King knew that Abigail was a Dragon God Knight. She needed to grow through constant battles to tap into her potential and talent. This was because this class was not an ordinary class. In the future, Abigail would have to go to the Dragon Island and accept the test of the Dragon God. Only then could she enter into a contract. The road ahead would only be more difficult, so she needed to grow up as soon as possible. In fact, Abigail did not let Victor King down. Seeing her approaching quickly, the two-headed lizard panicked and increased the attack of the fireballs. The surrounding vegetation burned, but it did not stop Abigail¡¯s speed. Chapter 39 Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation Probably because it had spat out too much fire, the fireballs gradually became smaller. The blue head of the two-headed lizard moved, and its beast eyes flickered with a cold and bloodthirsty light. Abigail suddenly had a bad feeling. As expected, the next second, a blue water arrow shot out rapidly, emitting a fishy smell. Even though she was prepared, the speed of the water arrow was too fast. The shield that she had used to block the fireball attack was almost exhausted. The moment the water arrow brushed past her, a strand of golden hair slowly fell into the air. No wonder it was called a Dark Two-Headed Lizard. Its two heads controlled water and fire respectively. The water, which was usually gentle and harmless, showed a terrifying side in the beast¡¯s mouth, becoming extremely sharp. Dense water arrows fell from the sky, interweaving into a large net that enveloped Abigail. Even the air was compressed and gradually thinned. The greatsword in Abigail¡¯s hand suddenly burst out with an extremely sharp light. At the same time, the phantom of a divine sword appeared behind her. It was inlaid with gems and even had a dragon carving on it. It was like the rising sun. This was a short-term crowd-control skill, and it could quickly rush to the front of the enemy. [Light of the Dragon God Knight] The two-headed lizard was unable to open its eyes due to the attack, and its vision turned white. Its head began to shake, and even the accuracy of the water arrows became unstable. All of them landed on the tree behind Abigail. The giant tree that was as thick as a man¡¯s arms was snapped in half. Abigail seized the opportunity and dashed in front of the two-headed lizard at lightning speed. The giant sword in her hand was synchronized with the divine sword phantom. It was just an ordinary weapon, but under the cover of the divine light, it was endowed with unlimited power and inherited 5 percent of the divine sword¡¯s power. A cold light flashed, and the blue head of the two-headed lizard was cut off. Roar! With a heart-wrenching roar, the two-headed lizard¡¯s body shook violently. Having lost one of its heads, it could not even stand steadily. Countless shrubs were trampled under its feet. Bloodthirsty light flashed in its eyes. It was in a berserk state, and it pounced fiercely at Abigail. It opened its mouth and revealed its sharp teeth, which could bite people into pieces. The tongue was like a giant hammer smashing into the ground. The entire ground rumbled, and at the same time, countless bright red blood splattered. Abigail¡¯s gaze was cold. The two-headed lizard had already lost part of its mobility and combat ability. She dodged the attacks agilely and occasionally took out her sword to cut a few small wounds on its body. Gradually, the movements of the two-headed lizard became slower and slower, and more and more wounds appeared on its body. In the end, its tall body finally fell to the ground with a loud bang. [Congratulations to your teammate for killing the Dark Two-Headed Lizard. You have received 3,000 EXP.] It turned out that killing a level 20 monster was not as difficult as he had imagined. Victor King walked up to congratulate her. ¡°Big Sis, you¡¯re really amazing.¡± In the Gloom Forest Secret Realm, other than the Boss of the Secret Realm, the Dark Two-Headed Lizard was considered a relatively powerful monster. If Abigail could deal with it, then she could deal with the rest of the monsters alone. Of course, the Nine Netherworld Black Python was an exception. There were only two of them, so they could not farm monsters in groups. Abigail did not have any AoE skills, but killing them one by one was not bad. Although it was a little slow, at least it was safe. With Victor King¡¯s praise, Abigail was even more confident. The two of them continued to advance into the depths of the Secret Realm. Training oneself in battle was indeed the best. In the subsequent battles, Abigail¡¯s killing speed became faster and faster, and her methods became more and more familiar. They could not farm in groups, and the EXP they gained was a little less, but it was still quite rich. Most importantly, Victor King would go up and kill them every time. With the support of his super luck, a lot of materials dropped. Although Abigail felt that it was a little strange, she did not think too much about it. Moreover, they did not encounter the Nine Netherworld Black Python along the way. It could be said that they were very lucky. Compared to the smooth progress on their side, Bill¡¯s side was a little unlucky. He had finally escaped the pursuit of the Nine Netherworld Black Python and found a safer place to rest. ¡°The Nine Netherworld Black Python just now was really too terrifying.¡± ¡°Who knows why this monster would suddenly wander around the Gloom Forest? It¡¯s not like it would randomly appear in a Level 30 dungeon.¡± Everyone complained as they took pills to recover. In the battle just now, many people had been injured, but fortunately, they were all minor injuries. As long as they took pills and supplemented their healing, they should be fine. ¡°Forget it. Next, we just need to avoid the Nine Netherworld Black Python and not face it head-on. The Gloom Forest is such a large area. It¡¯s impossible for us to always run into it.¡± What he feared came true. The moment he finished speaking, a creepy crawling sound suddenly sounded. It was the sound of scales rubbing against the ground, making one¡¯s scalp go numb. Other than the Nine Netherworld Black Python, no one could think of any other existence that could create such a commotion. No way, no way, that Nine Netherworld Black Python really followed us? Roar! The furious roar of a beast came from behind. The Nine Netherworld Black Python had discovered the traces of Bill and the others. As if it had seen its enemies, it rushed straight over. If it was not for that person¡¯s timely reaction, he would probably have died in the beast¡¯s mouth. The huge snake¡¯s eyes became needle-shaped, and there was still a scarlet light flickering inside, like a blood-colored gem. Previously, Bill and the others could barely struggle, but now they were completely suppressed. The snake tail swung over, and the outermost Warrior with thick HP was directly sent flying far away. Even with the Warrior¡¯s super-high defense. he could not withstand a single blow from the Nine Netherworld Black Python. Before the Mage could even take out his staff, he was lifted up by the snake¡¯s tail and was thrown heavily to the ground. ¡°Damn it, why did this Nine Netherworld Black Python suddenly go berserk?¡± Someone could not help but curse. They were not even a match for the Nine Netherworld Black Python in its normal state, let alone when it went berserk. This was simply a nightmare. Their combat strength was not on the same level. The originally orderly team was scattered by the Nine Netherworld Black Python. The melee Classes were still fine. At least they had a certain degree of defense. However, the fragile ones were in a terrible state. They fell to the ground in a mess, and a few of their bones were probably broken. The Nine Netherworld Black Python rampaged through the team as if it was looking for something. Bill was dumbfounded, and his expression was extremely ugly. ¡°Is this Nine Netherworld Black Python crazy? Why did the damage suddenly become so high? It¡¯s almost comparable to a First Transition monster.¡± The Nine Netherworld Black Python could not speak, so it thought that Bill and the others were thieves who stole eggs. Bill and the others did not know about this. They were enemies, and the grudge between them grew. Chapter 40 Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation The unlucky Bill and the others still did not know that they had taken the blame for Victor King. Fortunately, he had prepared many props. Now that the situation was dangerous, facing the pursuit of the Nine Netherworld Black Python, he could only throw them all out. These were all top-grade items bought from the market at a high price! The black lightning fire exploded on the Nine Netherworld Black Python¡¯s body. Sparks flew one after another, causing many scales to fall. The Thunderfire Bomb created by the Master of Smelting and Forging, as well as the scroll containing the power of a Great Mage, were all used in both attack and defense. Some of the items were originally intended to be used in the level 30 Secret Realm, but now he could only reluctantly take them out. The cost of this trip to the Secret Realm was too high. Even if the Herbert family had the resources, they could not afford to spend so much. However, there was no other way. At this critical moment, everyone was desperately resisting. With the support of various props, they did not die in the snake¡¯s mouth. However, this action undoubtedly angered the Nine Netherworld Black Python even more. There was a coldness unique to snakes in the beast¡¯s eyes, which almost made people shudder. The annoying little bug had not only stolen its egg, but now that it had done such a thing. The Nine Netherworld Black Python roared at the sky. Its body suddenly swelled up, and its scales became even sharper, like sharp blades that were about to be unsheathed. Bill suddenly had a bad feeling. ¡°Fall back quickly!¡± A terrifying pressure descended on everyone¡¯s heads, like an insurmountable mountain. It was so heavy that almost everyone could not breathe. Both the Nine Netherworld Black Python¡¯s strength and size were growing rapidly. A huge shadow fell in front of everyone, covering the sky and the sun, as if the God of Death had descended. It was indescribably huge. If they could still resist before, at this moment, no one could think of resisting at all. Bill¡¯s teeth were chattering as he decisively said, ¡°Let¡¯s leave the Secret Realm!¡± Even if they were unwilling, Bill knew that the Nine Netherworld Black Python in front of them was no longer something they could deal with. If they continued to stay, he was afraid that everyone would die. This was not a joke. A white light flashed, and the Nine Netherworld Black Python¡¯s bloody mouth was already close at hand. Its sharp fangs were about to touch everyone, and they felt as if they were about to touch their skin. They could also vaguely smell a stench. Looking at the disappearing crowd, the Nine Netherworld Black Python let out an angry roar. The surrounding trees were uprooted, and even the birds in the forest were startled. Far away in the north of the Gloom Forest, Victor King and Abigail seemed to have sensed something. They looked at the sky and saw countless birds circling. It seemed that something had happened, but they did not take it to heart. On the other side. Bill and the others left the Secret Realm in a sorry state. Everyone fell to the ground and panted heavily. It was simply a race against the Grim Reaper. They were just a little bit away from being swallowed by the Nine Netherworld Black Python. The fangs of the Nine Netherworld Black Python almost grazed past their skin. When they thought of the scene just now, everyone felt a lingering fear and goosebumps appeared. ¡°This is too dangerous. I feel like I¡¯m about to die in the snake¡¯s mouth.¡± Before this, they had already mentally prepared themselves. A level 20 dungeon might be a little difficult, but with their ability, they could barely cope with it. However, who would have thought that they would encounter such a big accident? The appearance of the Nine Netherworld Black Python had forcefully raised the difficult mode to the level of nightmare. It was likely that it had already become the Nine Netherworld Black Python¡¯s meal. They had not killed many monsters this time, and they had not even dropped anything. They had even lost a lot of precious materials and scrolls. It could be said that they had lost everything. The Herbert family and the others all had ugly expressions on their faces. Bill seemed to have thought of something. ¡°I wonder how Abigail is doing.¡± Victor King and Abigail had left the main group. It was impossible for the two of them to explore the Gloom Forest alone. They might have already left the Secret Realm. Bill looked at the team panel and was a little surprised. ¡°How could this be?!¡± They had entered the Secret Realm as a team before, and now that the two of them had left the team, the status of ¡®already left the team¡¯ was displayed on the screen. Most importantly, they were still in the Secret Realm. He could only see the general situation on the team panel, but he did not know their exact location and status. ¡°They¡¯re still in the Secret Realm.¡± Not only Bill, but the rest of the team was also surprised. Even if Abigail had displayed extraordinary strength earlier, she still had a burden with her. No matter how he looked at it, these two people should not be able to hold on for long. If they deliberately avoided the monsters, they could barely survive. Some high-level Secret Realms contained precious materials inside. If they could pick them, it would be a good harvest. Perhaps they wanted to collect things in the Gloom Forest, so they did not come out immediately. That was what the Herbert family thought, but they did not know that Victor King and Abigail were like fish in water in the Secret Realm. If they knew that Victor King had obtained a lot of materials, their eyes would be red with envy. ¡°These two people are really lucky. We were chased by the Nine Netherworld Black Python until we were about to die, while they didn¡¯t meet the python. In the end, they were lucky.¡± If Victor King and the others were to face the python, they might not even be able to last one round. Since Bill knew that Abigail was still in the Secret Realm, he had no intention of leaving. He still wanted to wait for her to come out. They thought that Abigail would not be able to hold on any longer, but they did not expect that after waiting for a long time, the two of them still did not come out. They suddenly felt a little strange. ¡°That¡¯s not right. They should have come out by now. Could it be that something happened to them?¡± Both of their names were lit up. If they died, they would turn gray. Bill was worried about Abigail, so he walked up to an old man. ¡°Master Vanda, please perform a divination for the current situation.¡± Vanda¡¯s level was not high, but Bill was polite to him. It was because his Class was a Support class, and it was the kind that had a special hidden ability: Seer. Vanda was unwilling because he did not want to waste his divination on this. However, he had no choice but to agree to Bill¡¯s request. He slowly stretched out his hand, and a magic array was faintly visible. At the same time, Vanda closed his eyes and chanted an ancient spell. ¡°I can feel it¡­¡± A pair of scarlet eyes appeared in his mind, bringing with it a powerful pressure. Vanda opened his eyes, his expression changed slightly, and he spat out a mouthful of blood. Everyone was shocked. It was just an ordinary divination. How could it turn out like this? Vanda could not believe it. ¡°It¡¯s them! It was these two people who angered the Nine Netherworld Black Python!¡±
