Prestige Grinding : I Can Reset My Level

Sora and Kara were shocked by Emily's words.

Emily smiled at their reaction. "There's a lot you can learn just from someone's name, you know… But don't worry, we have no reason to harm you."

"You two seem like real talents—Kara Spirine, a promising healer, and you…" She frowned slightly. "An all-rounder? Are you still following that path?"

"Yes… I've learned many skills along the way and adapt according to situations," Sora replied, remembering Kara's advice about mastering one skill instead of learning a hundred.

'The problem is, I still haven't found what I really like, or what weapon suits me best. I don't even know if I want to focus on magic, being a warrior, or on elemental spells… And my strongest strength is still body forging, which makes me more of a tank than anything else,' he thought to himself.

He had spent a few years in the [Time Space] honing his skills, pushing them to new levels, but even he knew his style was chaotic. He had wanted to rely on Alius to help refine his techniques, but with Alius gone and the event in Japan fast approaching, he hadn't taken the time to train more.

Emily's eyes narrowed thoughtfully. "I'll need to see more of your combat style to judge, but jumping from level 75 to 110 in a few weeks and and being an all-rounder doesn't quite add up. You clearly have secrets, and I won't pry for now, but you should start mastering aspects of your strength one at a time."

Kim Dong, sitting beside her, nodded. "Before we move forward, tell me your plans for the future. I'll decide if you'll be a fit for our guild."

"We've been recommended to participate in the event in Japan," Sora explained, "and we plan to head there soon for the regional qualifiers. For now, we want to settle in Seoul and prepare."

"Oh, that's interesting. You got a spot in the qualifiers! West Europe, I assume? You should be able to secure a spot then," Kim Dong chuckled, before adding "We're also taking part in that event, but represent the region of South Korea."

"South Korea is considered a region?" Kara asked, surprised.

Emily nodded. "Any place with enough power concentration can be considered a region. There's even a guild in the USA that has its own region. Regions are designated when an Adventurer's Guild or Guild territory reaches a certain level. But a cluster of low-level countries like in West Europe also forms a region."

"Qualifiers in South Korea are tough," Emily continued with a grin. "I don't think either of you would make it—unless you can beat this old man!" She pointed at Kim Dong, laughing at her own joke.

Kim Dong scowled. "Emily, get out. You don't respect your leader even in front of newcomers."

"No, you, get out. Who said I was done here?" Emily coughed and resumed her serious tone. "It's good you're entering the Ascension Event. It's the best chance for players to gain incredible power in a short time. Many top-ranked players in the world rose through that event. With you two joining, we might even have six or seven players in the event—if that girl can make it into the top 20 of our region."

Kim Dong waved off her comments. "Join the guild, kids! I like the two of you. Ignore Emily—I'm the boss here." ᴛhis chapter is ᴜpdated by NovᴇlFir(e).nᴇt

Emily shot back, "What boss? You wouldn't get anywhere without me. Don't forget who helped you start ARAM!"

Sora and Kara, ignoring the bickering, focused on the contracts that appeared before them.
