Chapter 452 Going Through Rewards

~~~(POV: Saliandra Orvello)~~~

~~~(Location: Inside Hidden Dungeon Frosts Penance, The Kingdom of Avalon)~~~

~~~(Time: 3:06 PM)~~~

All the messages about what I've gotten from beating The Avatar of Frost came to an end a little bit ago, and I've read the message I got from Cera. Turns out I came to the right place after all, and now I'm done with this tier-up quest, and I have one more. But instead of thinking about that, I open my Inventory and use the tier-up item.?

A new bracket appears in my interface next to my name and level, showing that I've reached tier-2. The difference in power between tiers can be felt, and I feel stronger than I've ever felt before. "Time to check out the sword I got to drop." I've even gotten a weapon to drop, and I'm glad I'm getting an upgrade compared to my current one. I open my Inventory and use Inspect on it.

[Winters Edge (Legacy)]

[Description: A sword that was created by The Hand of Winter Yexxes. This sword was made to have a powerful symbiotic relationship with any Classes that's nature is Ice, Cold, or Frost. The reason why The Avatar of Frost carried such a weapon is unknown, for it cannot leave its dungeon. But now that it's been rediscovered by Saliandra Orvello, she has ownership of it.]

[Durability: Infinite]

[This weapon will upgrade along with Saliandra Orvello]

'ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ N ovelBi(n)',

[This weapon cannot be traded, dropped, or destroyed]

'',

Just seeing all the skills that are attached to this sword makes me think that it's tailor-made for me. This is the strongest weapon that I've ever had in my life, and I'm shaking from excitement from being able to use it. "It belongs to me... No one else can take it from me... This is truly mine..." Something that is exclusively mine other than my Class.

Cera would probably know something about this weapon, and I know that he'll be proud of me for doing this on my own. My eyes shift to the glowing light near the back of the room, and I walk towards it. I reach out my hand, and it asks me if I wish to be teleported out of the dungeon and outside the entrance. I accept, and I'm brought back out.

In a split second, people crowd around me and bombard me with questions. My hood is up, and I push through the crowd trying to get away. And as I make my way towards the exit of this little makeshift outpost for Players, the same woman I talked to earlier is waiting for me. She doesn't have a happy look on her face.?

She has her friends surrounding her, and I can already tell they're not going to let me pass without a good reason too. After a couple of seconds, I reach her, and she holds out her hands to stop me from walking any further. "You owe me for giving you advice about the dungeon." Her attention drifts to the new sword on my waist.?

p Winters Edge belongs to me, and even if I could give it to her, I wouldn't. "Get over it. All the efforts to clear the dungeon are my own. You didn't help in any significant way. But... If you want to stand in my way, I'll be happy to test out my new weapon on you." She immediately cringes and bites her bottom lip. She lowers her head and moves to her left. Letting me pass.

<br/>The Wilds are now in front of me, and I leap in a burst of speed towards The City of Abble. Monsters are already chasing me, and this is a perfect chance to test out my new sword. Winters Edge has powerful passive effects it can give and debuff to enemies. The most I'm interested to see is the chance to freeze something entirely.

The monsters I'm about to engage are my level, and they're carrying different types. Like Starved Bears, Angry Blood Elks, and Rabid Bobcats. The moment I hit the ground, they are all around me. I swing my sword, and the Starved Bear instantly turns into a block of ice, right before shattering. Giving me EXP in the process.?

~~~(POV: Cera Adamo)~~~

~~~(Location: Hot Spring Outside of The City of Leekes, The Kingdom of Avalon)~~~

~~~(Time: 3:21 PM)~~~

The magically enhanced hot spring water is relaxing me to a point I've never been to before while cleaning myself. It's better than any of the bathtubs that I've had the pleasure of using on Gaia. My worries are behind me right now, and I'm doing everything I can to not think about the Raid Deep Crystal Crypt. But my mind drifts to this subject no matter what I do.

I distract my thoughts with Sally and what she's up to right now. The messages between us show that she's seen my message but hasn't responded yet. "Probably checking out whatever drops she's got from the boss..." If she's beaten yet. From what I remember, there was a sword that was Legacy in grade that great for her Class, but I can't remember its name or what it does.?

That's enough thinking about Sally and what she's doing. My eyes slowly close, and I sink deeper into the hot spring water. "Mom would probably like it if I reached out to her... She's busy in Deadore..." Her Legacy Class is pretty strong too, but it's not as good as Sally's. But still enough to be in that top percent of Players. I open my Friends Tab and click on her name.

[Hey, mom. I thought I'd check up on you and see how you were doing now that you're on your own. I figured it might be a hard time for you, so if you have anything you want to talk about. Now is a great time. I'm taking a break in a hot spring, and I'm not doing anything until tomorrow. Get back to me soon, alright. Love you.]

I send it, and I dismiss my Player Interface and put my hands behind my head and relax. I don't think she'll immediately respond, but I'm here for when she does. "No need for me to contact dad or Marcus right now... Guys aren't really the conversationalist through messages like women are." If anything, dad wouldn't like having a long conversation, not in person. A message pops up.

[It's so good to hear from you, Cera! Right now, I'm trying to find out the location of a dungeon for my tier-up quest. Daedore has a lot of amazing things, and it's a great city. I'll be honest, I've been wasting time and having fun instead of trying to complete my tier-up quest. I've been ignoring it since I don't really want to look for the dungeon...]

That's normally something I'd never see mom say or admit. Reading this causes me to smile and laugh a little. "Nothing wrong with having a bit of fun. It's not my job to boss her around and force her to do things she doesn't want to do. What she does and how she does it is up to her." I start typing a response, and I have a feeling this will be a long talk, but she probably needs it.

~~~(Location: The City of Abble, The Kingdom of Avalon)~~~

~~~(Time: 3:29 PM)~~~

My body plops down into the chair, taking a deep breath. Now that I'm done with this tier-up quest. It's time that I go to the next one. "I want a break so bad... But everyone else is working so hard... I don't want to fall behind..." I bet Cera is making a lot of ground with his quests, and I'm falling behind. Even after I'm done with my tier-up quests. I need to find my father.
