Class Promotion Stone

[Vincarna: So, what was the second favor?] 

[Silver Oracle: That's something to talk about in person so let me know when you go see my aunt and I will join you.] 

[Vincarna: Ok, I will send you a message when I get to the bandit hideout and inform you if it's a dungeon or not, then when it's safe I will log out and go see Thasinia about the access band and the poison] 

[Silver Oracle: Understood talk soon.] 

*** 

Alea, who was lying on her bed and had just finished messaging with John, thought out loud. 

"I hope he will help with the second favor like he said." 

After which she used her access band to start a group call with Ice Blue Queen and Black Dragoon. 

After a moment both girls answered, and it was apparent they were both in the game as their avatars showed up. 

Ice Blue Queen was still her beautiful self yet her previous pure black hair was now blue the color of ice. 

"Alea what's with you calling me so suddenly, and to have Vulxis join us too, this is unusual." Ice blue Queen said with a smile. 

"Sarah it's good to see you again, it's been too long, will you be joining us at the banquet in two days?" Black Dragoon or rather Vulxis Noxmeila replied. 

"I will indeed, I have a special invite to help Alea with a problem along with Adria." Sarah replied. 

"Oh, a problem Alea? Can I be of assistance?" Vulxis asked with concern about her beautiful face. 

"I'm afraid if you were to help in this matter it would cause trouble for you, especially considering your special circumstances." 

"I see, sounds intriguing, I look forward to the show, but remember to ask for help if you need it." Vulxis said with a smile. 

"I will, now onto the matter of why I called you both, there may be an opportunity for you to both gain some fast levels." Alea said. 

"Oh?" Both women said with interest." 

"A new dungeon." Alea said and as she finished both women showed shocked expressions before Vulxis said. 

"Tell us more, how can a new dungeon appear at our level, also Sarah is still in the Eastern Continent is she not?" 

"First off as I'm sure you know there are several low level first rank dungeons around the capital cities in some continents that have not been found, while they have been found in other continents." Alea began to explain. 

"The two young women nodded in agreement before Alea continued. 

"It is not yet confirmed that this is the missing bandit dungeon in the central continent around Thamethalas, as I am waiting on him to inform me if my suspicions are true." 

"Him?" Vulxis asked with a frown. 

"Yes, I know what you are thinking but don't worry you have already met this individual." Alea said with a chuckle. 

"I have? I don't know many people in the central continent yet." Vulxis asked confused 

"What if I said he is the one who helped you with Silver Death's group." 

"Him!" Vulxis said in shock. 

"Silver Death?" Sarah asked with an angry look on her face before adding. 

"What does that spoiled brat have to do with this?" 

"Shall I let you explain Vulxis?" Alea said with a chuckle seeing Vulxis sigh. 

"I encountered a powerful Elite rank wild boss in the low levels around Thamethalas." Vulxis explained, causing Sarah's eyes to show surprise before she said. 

"Wild Elite bosses are already rare, but one in the low-level areas is even rarer." 

"Yes, that was my opinion and I wanted to defeat it, but I knew I was not strong enough to challenge it alone." Vulxis agreed as she continued her explanation. 

"That was when a group of five humans passed by and saw the boss, they were all lower level than me, so we agreed to form a party to take it down with the loot being based on the roll system." 

"I guess they figured that since it was five vs one on the roll the odds were in their favor to get the good loot." 

"Anyway, normally I would have refused them since I did not know them and you know I have to be especially careful with who I trust, but their party had Silver Death in it, and I knew she was the younger sister of your ex-boyfriend Silver Serpent." 

"I figured that if they lost, they would not be foolish enough to do something and risk damaging Silver Serpents' already damaged image after what he did to you." 

"In the end I was wrong because after we killed the boss, I won the roll on the big treasure that the boss had, and they then went on to attack me." 

"Damn bitch, I never did trust that bastard's younger sister, she thinks the world revolves around her just because her older brother is famous." Sarah said angrily before Vulxis continued. 

"After they had done some damage to me, they gave me the ultimatum to hand over the treasure or die and they will claim it off my corpse since it's an item that drops on death." 

"An item that drops on death? It must be valuable indeed, what is it?" Sarah asked and this time showed interest. 

"A Class Promotion Stone." Vulxis revealed as she pulled out an orb that had a gold edge with a rainbow effect swirling in the center, shocking Sarah and even Alea this time as she did not know what the treasure was before." 

"Seriously? A low-level Elite boss dropped a class promotion stone? Is such a thing possible?" Sarah asked in shock. 

Alea shook her head before answering. 

"I have never heard of one dropping on a boss below level fifty, and even then, it's only dungeon bosses and at a very low chance." 

"Class promotion stones generally have restrictions that allow you to only use it after reaching a certain class rank, of course the lower the restriction the better as it means you will start earning double stat points each level sooner." Sarah said before asking. 

"What class rank is your restriction?" 

Vulxis smiled widely before saying. 

"Rank two." 

"WHAT!" Both women shouted. 

"A rank two promotion stone? That means you could rank up as soon as you complete your first class mission at level ten and gain rank two, letting you move to rank three immediately." Alea said before adding. 

"I have never heard of one below rank four which needs level fifty." 

"Which I have already done, I was just about to use it when you called" Vulxis said happily. 

"Well wait a moment because I want to know how you got out of that situation." Said as Vulxis continued her story. 

"I of course refused their demands as I knew they would just kill me anyway since they already stabbed me in the back and Silver Death ordered them to stop messing around and kill me already." 

"However, as we all prepared for battle a chain lightning attack shot out of the trees hitting all of their group, followed by an individual walking out from the trees in a cloak with his hood up." 

"After inspecting him I learned that he was also human, and I became cautious of him even though he attacked Silver Death's group because he was also human and his stats where hidden." 

"His stats were hidden? Was he ten levels higher?" Sarah asked confused as to why would someone of higher level be in the low-level zone. 

"No that's the strange part, I could see his race and level but nothing else, he was only level seven." Vulxis answered. 

"How did a level seven hide their stats? That's something only high-level gear or abilities can do." Sarah asked, confused. 

"I know, but if you want to know yourself you will have to ask him, after all it's his secret." Alea said with a proud smile that she knew something they didn't know about the man she was in love with. 

"Fine keep your secrets spoil sport, anyway, continue Vulxis." Sarah said with a pout. 

"So apparently the man did not like the idea of five Humans ganging up on one Draconian, so he stepped in to balance the odds." Vulxis continued. 

"Also you're going to love this bit Sarah, he specifically antagonized Silver Death by saying that her older brother Silver Serpent must be regretting his actions after your rebirth and what he did to you, and that he should polish his neck because you're sure to be going after Silver Serpents head in the future." 

After she said this all three women burst out in joyous laughter. 

After calming down Sarah said. 

"That guy is right, I will be going after Silver Serpents head in the future, I wonder how he knew that." 

"Well, I am sure he got a good measure of your personality when you met each other in the past." Alea said with a smile. 

"Wait, I have met him?" Sarah asked in curiosity as Vulxis also showed interest. 

"Of course, I mean you were even flirting with him outside his wooden shack." Alea teased with a grin as light dawned in Sarah's eyes. 

"HIM? Sarah shouted in surprise.
