Armor Sets!

"What even is this?" Link held a scroll in his hand with odd symbols and words. He sat on his bed comfortably.

As the Dungeon Core was broken, Link returned to the spot he was standing at when he entered the Dungeon. He walked back to his room trying not to get any unwanted attention, wearing his Beast Soul Armor. After all, people can't see him with the clothes he has on, just in case a detailed description of him gets out.

<A Dungeon Escape Scroll, can't you read?>

"That's not what i meant, stupid." Link rolled his eyes "From what I know, Escape Dungeon is a skill, is it not?"

<It is>

"Exactly. Why is it a scroll? Is this like those games where I can use a scroll to cast the spell once?" Link asked. Magic Scrolls were a common item in the RPG games he used to play, which is why he had an idea what the item might be.

<You are correct, it is a one time use item. One common in this world>

"Common?"

<Yes, since not everyone can use High Level Magic. Scrolls were discovered as an alternative. The Magic formula and the specific amount of Mana needed for the spell are set inside it, so anyone can use this item without a problem>

"How do i use it?"

<Tear it. It will set it off and the spell will be cast>

Link was intrigued. He thought about preparing a bunch of these for use in fights to save Mana. "Probably not fast paced offensive spells but the support and defensive ones. Since I don't think the enemy will give me the time to reach and tear a Scroll to cast one offensive spell. That won't be very efficient"

<I know what you're thinking. But these are quite expensive. Especially when they hold powerful Spells.>

"Then I'll just learn how to create one and put my own Spells in them" Said Link.

<Still, that won't be that easy. To memories all the Magic formulas for all the spells and have enough Mana control to navigate into the Scroll without destroying it needs years of experience>

"Thank you for the encouragement Zero" Link sighed. He had to put his plan on hold for now.

…

As he woke up in the morning, news about the return of the missing group spread like wildfire. Although students did not know the full story, rumors of a mysterious individual that helped the group leave their entrapment spread.

Jack described him as best as he could, But the place was too dark for him to see anything else other than the Mask and its small black flame. Which have led to the Name 'Flame' becoming popular.

The Mages Guild detained and questioned the group about the events that transpired. But the news of the Dungeon and the Core never spread.

"They're keeping the Dungeon a secret? Why?" Link scratched his nose.

<They only let the information that they wanted out but hid the rest. Is this the first Dungeon they encounter i wonder>

The Mages Guild did not stay for long before they left, leaving things to get back to normal very fast.

Classes resumed and Link started going to class each morning. But there was still some strict lockdown about leaving the Town and entering the Forest.

Link was reprimanded for his actions against Kal. Bai scolded him for a while before letting him go. He saw that Link had gone a bit too far.

…

In the past few days, Link started Studying the Shop tab. He likes the idea of Set items and the bonus stat boosts. He found 2 Sets that caught his eye.

Both Sets were green in color.

<Amber Light Set> <Uncommon> (0 / 5 Items)

<Zandor Set> <Uncommon> (0 / 5 Items)

Link was unable to get his hands on the rest of the Dark Abyss Mage Set since each item had a Black Demon Core as a part of the required Materials.

He found these two Sets affordable, or at least will be if he managed to grind Points and manage his Missions well.

For now, Link did not want to use any of his Points until he was sure that the Forest will open soon, or he won't be able to get the Points back if he used what he had.

The days passed quickly. With Link taking a few Missions here and there around the Academy. Until the day the forest was reopened.

"About goddamn time" Link muttered. He heard the news from Raol as he was about to grab another Mission.

"The Forest will be accessible again tomorrow. The investigation ended and the area was deemed safe." Raol said.

"Finally. I can take a proper Mission again." Link said with a smile.

"Be more careful while you're out there" Raol said.

Classes with Bai have been going well. He would practice with him every once in a while helping Link get some ideas of possible fighting strategies. He got better and better the more he fought. Bai tried his best to hold back but sometimes Link would surprise him and force him to defend seriously.

"Great work Link, you're improving at a frighteningly fast pace" Bai complimented.

"It's all due to your instructions, sir" Link smiled politely.

Class ended and each left to do their own thing. Link went straight to the Mission Hall and got himself a Gathering Mission in the second Area.

"I'm finally free" Link muttered to himself as he headed to the gate.

"Is that him?" A boy asked, standing near one of the shops looking towards Link as he left the town.

"Yes" Another boy responded. It was Kal.

"A mere First year dares to beat up a Second year? We'll teach him to respect his elders" The boy said as he started walking out. Behind him was Kal and a couple of other kids.

"I love this" Link laughed "These creatures are a bit troublesome with their sneak attacks and retreats, but i managed" He said, sending the 3 corpses of the oversized wolves inside his Inventory. Consuming their Core.
