Shin looked at the notification panel in front of him after recovering from the initial surprise that he had.
------------
[Quest Na]: The Challenge of Earth Elent
[Quest Difficulty]: S (New Recap) – Nightmare
[Quest Type]: Hunting and Collecting
[Historical Note]:
Your Guardian Reaper, Astaroth, was born from the residual spirits of the two strongest Earth Elental Spirits.
One was known as the Earth Spirit that with the strongest defense and sturdiest body while the other was famous for having the most powerful attack and mightiest firepower.
After their last battle during the Repelling Era, the two suffered grievous wounds that required them to absorb a lot of Earth Elental Mana to recuperate.
They traveled far and wide to look for a new rebirthing place and arrived at the land sowhere in the Saint Heaven Kingdom.
But since the place could only accommodate a single spirit, the two battle it out to know who was the strongest.
The victor would be the owner of the place while the loser would be devoured by the forr.
Unfortunately, the two had equal power and could not decide the winner. And since their battle was so intense, their wounds worsen which led to their mutual destruction.
With no news about them, the Elental Spirits and Transcendent Beings suspected that both of them had died during their fight battle.
Even though it was not the entire truth, it was not that far either.
The residual of their spirits fused together and gave birth to a new Elental Spirit with a mutated Earth Elent.
[Quest Details]:
Even though the two Earth Elental Spirits had been dead for a long ti already, their strong will was hosted in the body of your Guardian Reaper and inherited their goals.
Help your Guardian Reaper reach its pinnacle form and beca the Sovereign of the Earth Elent.
[Quest Condition]:
Gather enough Earth Elental Cores that could help Astaroth in his path of evolution.
Note: The better the grade of the core the more benefits your Guardian Reaper could get.
[Quest Reward]:
Evolution of Astaroth and his promotion into a Supre Elental Being.
[Quest Penalty]:
Failure could lead to the weakening of Astaroth and demoting his rank to an ordinary Elental Spirit.

Shin furrowed his brows slightly after reading through the entire quest panel. He read it twice to make sure that did not miss anything before muttering to himself.
"Hmm… This is not as troubleso as what Vladimir has given before."
The entire quest was interesting and seed to be not that hard. It was also quite simple and straightforward too, so he thought that it would not take too much ti.
The rest of the historical note was what he had already suspected as it was what Hanzo had told him before. And adding to the information that Charlotte had given him before, the entire historical background was entirely the sa.
But there were a few things that piqued his interest.
First was the words 'Sovereign', which was sowhat familiar to him. From what he could rember, the only ones that could call themselves 'Sovereign' were those beings that reached the pinnacle of this plane.
It was the information that he had gotten from King Dracula from the previous quest that they had cleared just recently.
This could an that Astaroth could reach that level when his evolution had been completed. Though, he also suspected that his true powers would also be sealed due to him being 'weak'.
There was another thing, and that was the words 'Supre Elental Being'.
If he added it with the current information that he had gotten from the quest description, being a 'Sovereign' of an elent was equivalent to being a 'Supre'.
What was interesting though was the fact that one of his Elental Spirits had the purity level of 'Supre'. Grimrace, who was an Eldritch Psychic Spirit, was on that level.
But when he compared the nutjob to Blackie and Vladimir, who were an Abysmal Penumbra Spirit and Noblesse Crimson Spirit respectively, their strengths and powers were comparable to each other.
But the Bloodline Purity of those two were labeled as 'Monarch', and not 'Supre'.
He was not sure about it, so he could only ask the two, who were more experienced than him in this area.
"What is the connection of a Sovereign of an Elent to a Sovereign Being? And what is the difference between an Elental with 'Supre' bloodline purity and soone with a 'Monarch' one?" directing the question to both Solus and Hanzo.
The first to answer was Solus. "A Sovereign of an Elent, or a Supre Elental Being, is equivalent to the 'Sovereigns' that that other races had. They are the Elentals that managed to reach the pinnacle of this plane."
"But these Supre Elental Beings are not the sa as the other Elental Spirits. They are Elentals who walked on their respective path which slightly deviates from the rest of Elentals."
"They have gained their elents through unusual things or undergo a mutated evolution from their original elents."
She paused for a mont before pointing to Grimrace. "Take this clown for example. He is supposedly a Shadow Elental Spirit who turns into an Abomination. But after he devours multiple Elentals during his ti of craze, he awakens one of his hidden potentials."
"He then beca a Shadow Psychic Elental Abomination."
"And after a series of mutations and evolutions along the way, he becos what he is now today – an Eldrich Psychic Spirit."
"And since he is walking his own path of elental evolution, he beco a 'Supre'," she added which quickly clarified Shin's confusion.
And as if taking it as a cue, Hanzo quickly added. "As for the Elental Spirits with 'Monarch' bloodline purity, they are the ones that are born to be the Kings of their respective elent."
"Unlike the Supre Elental Beings, the path of a Monarch Elental Being has already been paved in front of them and all they have to do is to follow it to reach the pinnacle."
"Though, they are still slightly different compared to the 'Elental Kings' of the lower plane. Those guys are the absolutes of their respective elents. But that did not an that they are unmatched since the 'Supres' and 'Monarchs' are at least as powerful as them, albeit not having the sa level of authority."
Shin slightly nodded his head in understanding.
He also suspected that the new 'terms' that he was getting like 'Elental Kings', 'Supres', and 'Monarchs' might be related to the new update, especially when he was one of the players who triggered it and had more knowledge about the 'secrets' that most of the players did not know.
After thinking about it, he opened the information panel of Astaroth and saw a few interesting things.
-----------------
Spirit Na: Astaroth
Status: Reaper's Retainer – Guardian
Race: Hybrid Elental Spirit (Earth/tal)
Bloodline: Pending
Purity: Supre (Potential)/ Ordinary (Potential) – Pending
Transformation: Earth Warden

-----------------
There were a lot of details that had been omitted or had been in the process of evolving or devolving. Those changes would definitely be dependent on the outco of his current quest.
He beca more motivated on clearing this one since it would directly affect his strength. Though, he was still not sure how he was going to totally fuse it with his ideal battle style.
Right at this mont, he had already two confird battle styles which centered on Yin-Yang Arts and Swordsmanship, and Sword-drawing Arts and Jade Kirin Sword Movents respectively.
Both already had their respective Elental Spirit Possessions that he could use, which also complinted the two sword styles.
As for the rest of the Elental Spirit Possessions, he was still not sure how he was going to fit them with his swordsmanship or martial arts.
Regardless, he still had to focus on what was in front of him. He could take it one step at a ti, so the rest could only wait until he found a way to connect them with each other.
Though, he also had the feeling that he would get his answer once he tried taking his Tier 3 Class Promotion Quest.
He was about to close the information panel of his Elental Spirits when his eyes suddenly caught sothing.
He paused for a mont and noticed that the borders of each of the information panels of the Elental Spirits had similar colors aside from Hanzo and Solus. And on top of that, it seed like their 'ranking' was slightly higher than the rest but on an equal level to one another.
Solus had a blazing golden border that was very similar to the surface of the sun while Hanzo had a purple border shining with a dim light while its edges were alternating between shattering and reconstructing of a glass.
As for the rest, all their borders were slightly simple compared to the two. And all of them had either white or black borders. Whitie and Astaroth, who were at the bottom of the list, did not even have a border.
"Interesting!" He muttered as a sudden thought flashed through his mind. But he quickly set it aside for the ti being before closing the information panel.
He then turned to his front and saw a couple of huge silhouettes in the distance. "Alright, it is ti for the hunt!"
"Let's forget about the rest and focus on the high-quality ones!" since he decided to do this, then he would make sure that he would get the best benefit available in front of him.
"Let's just hope that a World Boss is lying around sowhere."
