Wings III

"Are they perhaps your friends, sir Isaac?"

"If I had a friend with a lion for a head, I'd be bragging. Sadly, he's not and I have bad news for you, I don't think we're a match against them… I can't even see their levels. In my experience here in Avalon, facing someone like that is never a good sign."

Isaac had faced a lot of people. Many times he faces those stronger than him, but never had he felt more in danger when facing someone whose level he couldn't see, 'That question mark never signifies he's weak.'

"What is an Ascendant doing here?"

"A Transcendent?"

"You don't know them, Sir Isaac?" seeing Isaac shrug his shoulders, Ria explained, "Ascendants are people who managed to cross the four digit level barrier. Anyone who is below the level of an Ascendant can't see their actual levels, only the indication is the number of question marks. The more the question marks the more times they have ascended."
