“You know how I told you about those odd markings that are inside our bodies?” Erik asked. “The two circles inside one another, thirteen of them throughout our bodies. I have three of them open—you’ve only got one?” Rugrat said. “Yeah, I think that they’re based on our Mana Regeneration. You have a Mana Regeneration stat of three while I’ve only got one. Also, when I cast a spell, then I feel the Mana coming in through the hole in the back of my head.”
========== Welcome to the Ten Realms! ========== You have been randomly selected to join the Ten Realms. One may choose to ascend the Ten Realms, thereupon making a request to the Gods of the Realms. Only those who are Level 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, and 90 may ascend to the next realm. Fortune favors the strong! ==========
“Sir, they’re only level sevens, but their aura, it feels like they’re gods of death,” Lieutenant Liam Hoste said seriously.
It would be easier to only walk down one path, but Erik didn’t want to have regrets. He wanted to at least try out both systems. The worst that could happen was that he would fail to increase his power in one system but his overall strength would be greater than someone who had only attempted one system.
Finally for the first time they had nailed down their roles: Erik would be the healer and close range; Rugrat would be the long-range rogue type. They would both be able to heal as support, with Rugrat specializing in smithing while Erik would seek out more information on Alchemy.
In a siege, the biggest factor over time is not how big your walls are. Instead, it is how much food and water you have inside the walls,”
Wouldn’t that be something. Even if I don’t succeed, even if I get halfway and it’s all game over, wouldn’t it be one hell of a thing to have tried?
A cold smile appeared on Erik’s face, a smile between warriors that only offered one thing: death to those who stood in their path.
“No need to salute now that the battle has started. If the enemy saw that, then they would look to kill me to screw up our chain of command,”
Looking into those eyes, even three floors away, he felt his knees were weak and his back cold. There wasn’t any explicit killing intent; instead, it felt as if he were the one being looked down on, some insignificant ant beneath this other person’s shoe.
The man let out a roar of his own that seemed to be like a physical thing. It was as if they had walked into the depths of hell as the man unleashed his strength. That same dread Quinn had felt, the senses that he had trained continuously, all warned him that this was an Expert who had crawled through a sea of bodies to get to the point he was. He hid it well, but when enraged or fighting, he would turn into a demon.
Erik smiled. Rugrat was one of those men, all hardass and angry on the outside, but inside he would put his life on the line for any kid, any man or woman he considered a brother, sister, or innocent.
