"Why is it that I have never heard of this person?" Ian asked in confusion due to his family being a pretty well standing noble family.
"That is to be expected and no offence, but your family is what is known as a mid-ranked noble house. This information is only circulated among the high ranked nobles and those that have the right to privileges." Natasha nodded as she replied to Ian's question.
"Does Ellis works for this person?" Ruby asked what we all wanted to know.
"I can't say much, other than what I have said so far. You can guess whatever you want from what I told you. I have already told you guys way too much." She replied as she looked around warily.
"Why are you so reluctant to say the rest when you are halfway done, Tash? Come on just finish it, don't let us hanging on the cliff." Maisy tried prying for more information from her seemingly not satisfied.
"I can't Maisy. As you know each noble family have their ears and eyes in places depending on their family strength. How powerfully strong do you think the information network, of a person who is the cause of many sleepless nights to many high ranking nobles, would be? Also, where would you think the eyes and ears of the whole nobles of the empire would be today?
The only reason why I was able to say this much without getting his attention is because of a certain person here, and I believe he will protect me from that person's eyes and ears for a short while." Natasha finished off as she looked towards the hall where all the V.I.P's where gathered.
I am curious now. There are way too many unknown things among the upper nobles of the empire. Who is this terrifying person the whole empire is guarded against? Why are they so wary towards him? If they are so guarded against him why don't they just join hands and outright kill him rather than let him grow?
Then there is the mysterious protector of Natasha. She said that person is here today. Who could it be?
Could it be that person from the Thorn commandment family that was here today? But that can't be possible. From what Natasha told me before, commandments won't protect a royal child unless they prove their worth.
Then there is the Supreme Magi Merlin. But it is a commonly known fact that the Supreme magi is a very anti-social person. But I can't eliminate that possibility too.
How about one of the 3 royal princes? But didn't Natasha say that each of her siblings was strangers to each other? Wait... Could it be Prince John? He is known for his benevolence amongst the people. From what I have heard so far he seems to be the only kind person amongst the nobles who would help someone out.
I have heard he visited the slums a few weeks ago with carrying one of its residents in his arms, that was beaten to half death. Not only did he treat that person but made sure to provide them with enough funds to move out of the slum.
This became a huge sensation due to the fact that it was the first time ever that a noble had ever taken a foot into the slums(let alone acknowledge their existence) and that too carrying one of its own residence in his own hand. Usually, nobles won't even touch anything as they had their servant carry everything for them. And here was a noble and that to a possible future emperor of the empire, carrying a filthy person from the slum.
Not only that, but he is also in charge of the exam this time, meaning he is in full control of who is here and who is not, therefore being able to perfectly stop all eyes and ears spying on us.
--------------------------------
As the ice crept close to my ice intending to finally freeze me fully the timer reached '0'. The familiar distortion of space appeared before me. I closed my eyes in relief as my plan worked right on time.
[Fully Restored after Mission]
[All Assigned Missions Completed- 4 points]
[Completed an Easy difficulty scenario – 1 Point]
I looked at the interface to notice I had about 153 points cumulated from all the scenarios and missions I had worked hard to complete today.
Last month when I had first arrived at the game realm I could barely survive each scenario let alone do the missions assigned to me.
My guess was right, personal skills weren't included in the calculation for the difficulty of scenario. My sword art had helped me massively in many of the scenarios in not only surviving but helping me to complete the main missions along with many other side missions.
I have done roughly 30 or 40 something scenarios. I had lost count after getting to 29. I decided that would be it for today as I wanted to see and hear something other than the darkness around me and the whispers, along with being put into situations where everything is trying to kill me.
153 point, I had gathered more than enough points to change my talent. I chose the power option from the menu of the shop.
[Magi]
[Unlock?-Level 1 K.I. acquired for this power]
[Locked- Level 3 of K.I. about this power required to unlock]
What! When did I unlock the level 1 K.I. for that power? If I remember correctly it cost about 50 points to unlock K.I. for that power?
"When did I unlock the level 1 K.I. for the ability under Magi?" I asked bewilderedly to the whispers as I double checked my points to make sure none was deducted or taken from there.
"Unlock the power then you shall understand." The many mixed voices of young, old and of many genders still freaked me out.
Listening to what the whispers said I did as it asked, as there was no other way to find out when I unlocked it. I clicked the confirmation button asking if I wanted to unlock the power and waited as the words slowly faded away to be slowly replaced by new notifications.
[Unlocked Award]
[Award is now available in the Power tab]
What!? Award!
Of course, how could I be so stupid? "Show me the level 1 K.I. of Award." I ordered the whispers as I tried to settle my excitement and see if what I guessed could be true.
[Award a power that you can unlock giving you access to one of any form of abilities which you can evolve and upgrade to your desire. Award users have much higher physical capabilities than a Magi user, along with their abilities being much stronger than their Magi counterpart.]
This is the same thing I learned from Lord Bloodfist about award users. This means I don't have to pay for these K.I. but instead, acquire them outside of the game realm.
That makes K.I. all the more valuable. Over the last month, I have learnt many things, and the most important thing among it is there were too many secrets in the world I lived.
Take for example grey zones and award users. If not for me being involved so deeply with his highness I would have never learned about these things. This means I can learn of all the secrets of the world and the only conditions were paying some points in return, while not being kept in the dark.
The information I unlocked for level 1 gave me so much information about award, then what about level 2 or level 3 K.I.
I had thought K.I. was a useless thing but now I understood that K.I. is the most useful if not an important feature in the game realm. As the saying goes knowledge is power.
Just before doing anything I checked the price of Level 2 K.I. for award.
[Level 2-250 points]
It was too much point. I couldn't afford such a price right now unless I did some more scenarios.
Wait... I suddenly went back to the power tab as I suddenly realised something.
[Magi]
[Award]
[Locked- Level 3 of K.I. about this power required to unlock]
"Show me the price for Level 1 K.I. of the 3rd power." I ordered the whispers hurriedly.
[Level 1- 250 points]
As I guessed. If the 2nd power, an award, which is so strong compared to magi was expensive, then the third power must be something beyond the words strong, in order for it to require so many points for just to unlock the 1st level of K.I.
Not just that, in order to unlock the whole power, I have to amass 1750 points. This just proves how absurdly helpful/strong that power could be.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
