With this newfound power, I felt confident—no, certain—that I could take down the divine stag solo if I had to. Of course, I’d still need to rely on Fabled Vessel and Grant Plausibility, but even then, the difference was massive, both in stats and skill proficiency. Such was the power of a class advancent and a legendary class to boot. Any other classes wouldn’t have given that many stats increase from class advancent.
Beyond that, I noticed another change: The stat bonuses from titles were now displayed separately from those granted by equipnt. I rembered this was an intentional design to help divine warriors distinguish between the two more easily.
As we made our way through the streets of Fantasia toward the Hall of Classes, I took the chance to inspect all the new skills I’d obtained, mainly the new signature skill exclusive to the Paradox Incarnate class.
[Absorb Plausibility]
Rank: Legendary
Type: Active
A reality-consuming skill that transforms the conceptual, material, or divine essence of targets into plausibility—the narrative fuel that sustains impossible feats.
Allows the user to absorb any object or entity—physical or taphysical—reducing it to pure plausibility.Can absorb ambient faith, divine remnants, artifacts, and magical residues into plausibility at higher efficiency.The amount of plausibility gained depends on the narrative weight, mythic significance, and symbolic density of the target.Overuse on sentient or sacred targets may trigger divine retribution or narrative instability.Cannot absorb objects deeply tied to the ongoing scenario or Divine Will without incurring a massive cost.
This is a very good skill! Does this an I can turn a monster or even a human into plausibility? Based on the skill’s description, the answer was yes. But I doubted that the amount of plausibility I would gain would be as much or as efficient as converting faith—the purest form of energy. But still, this opened up more options for to beco even more versatile in gathering plausibility, which could be a real ga changer going forward.
Aside from this, I also gained three new passive skills for pushing three of my core stats past two hundred points: Dexterity, Stamina, and Magic Power.
[Extraordinary Agility]
Rank: Rare
Type: Passive
Your agilityhas surpassed the limits of ordinary warriors. This skill greatly enhances movent speed, reaction ti, and evasion capability while also granting sharper reflexes and precision in combat.
[Extraordinary Endurance]
Rank: Rare
Type: Passive
Your stamina has reached an exceptional threshold.This skill grants increased resistance to fatigue, poison, bleeding, and debuffs that reduce physical performance. It also boosts natural recovery over ti.
[Extraordinary Magic Power]
Rank: Rare
Type: Passive
Your magic power has exceeded the normal standard. This skill enhances mana regeneration, spell potency, and the stability of complex incantations. It also grants improved resistance to magical disruption and backlash.
With all these in my possession, I now held four of the “Extraordinary” stat-based passives, and I could confidently call myself an extraordinary human. While they might not seem overpowered, these passives were the dividing line between divine warriors with sub-two-hundred stats and those who had crossed that threshold, like the difference between a grown adult and a child.
Nevertheless, I noticed that despite having crossed the two-hundred threshold, the Luck stat didn’t grant any passive skill. That was the most elusive and abstract of all attributes. It was notoriously difficult to raise, and even when it surpassed major thresholds, it required significantly more points than the others before it triggered a stat-related passive. To make things more complicated, actually obtaining a passive from Luck also seed to depend on—well—luck.
Speaking of which, I was curious about the unique-rank skill that I obtained from the scenario’s reward, so I took a look at it.
Skill Book: [Weapon Manifestation]
Rank: Unique
Type: Active
Conjures a temporary weapon from condensed mana according to the user’s current combat needs. The manifested weapon's durability and effectiveness are equivalent to the lowest uncommon-grade weapon, and last as long as the user has mana or until destroyed.
“This is exactly what I need…” I muttered as we neared the main plaza where the Hall of Classes was located.
While an uncommon-grade weapon was nothing special, its adaptability was incredibly useful, especially in unexpected circumstances. If used creatively, it could make the difference between victory and defeat. Just as they said, “Sothing is better than nothing.” As such, I used the book without hesitation.
You have acquired a skill: [Weapon Manifestation Lv.1].
Thinking back, I had struggled during the boss fight when my sword shattered and my spear ended up embedded in the stag’s back. Having a fallback weapon now was a welco relief.
But sothing else felt… off.
As we crossed the last stretch toward the plaza—just ten ters away from the Hall of Classes—I noticed the atmosphere had changed. The area was far too quiet for this hour. Normally, there would be dozens of divine warriors coming and going, especially after a scenario completion. Yet the open plaza was nearly deserted.
Michelle narrowed her eyes. “This feels too empty… Sothing’s wrong.”
“I think we’ve got company.” Boris punched his palm, ready to fight.
“Be careful,” I warned.
That was when I felt it—hostile gazes from all directions. Chills crept down my spine as shadows encroached upon us.
Figures began erging one by one. From behind pillars, from the alleys, even from the rooftops above the plaza. n and won, about two to three dozen in mismatched armor, bearing a variety of weapons, stepped into view. So I recognized, being Ryan’s group. It appeared that we had been surrounded.
“Well, well,” a mocking voice rang out from the center of the group. Ryan stood there, flanked by his usual cronies, his mohawk was still as spiky as ever. “Fancy seeing you three here. What a coincidence.”
No. Obviously, this was anything but a coincidence.
Boris grinned, clenching his fists. “Looks like the rats finally crawled out of the sewer.”
At this point, Michelle had already nocked an arrow and held everything ready so she could draw and loose at the mont anyone made a move.
“What do you want?” I asked calmly.
While I spoke, I opened my inventory and quietly redeed the Unique-Grade Armant Voucher each of us had received from the scenario. My sword had been destroyed during the final fight, and I needed a replacent fast. It wasn’t ideal to do this now, not when I didn’t have ti to carefully compare choices. But I didn’t exactly have the luxury of ti.
Better to be ard than dead.
I had already used Inspect Eye on most of them, and the results weren’t encouraging. Six were Giml-rank divine warriors, while the rest hovered around the peak of Bet-rank. Ryan himself had advanced to Giml rank, though he clearly was on the weaker end of the spectrum. Regardless, we were completely outnumbered.
“Oh, nothin’ much. I’m just here to settle the score from before,” Ryan said coldly, drawing his machete. “With more than thirty of us here, there’s no way you can beat—”
While he kept talking, a translucent system nu materialized in front of , displaying a categorized list. I quickly browsed through the weapon section, specifically at swords. And as expected of a Unique-Grade Armant Voucher, the selection was filled with top-tier weapons. Nearly all were magic swords, each imbued with powerful enchantnts. Without hesitation, I scrolled through until I found one that fit my current situation perfectly.
“—us with your cheap tricks like last ti.”
“I’ve made an agreent with Graham,” I cut in sharply. “We’re scheduled for a duel to the death in a few days. Are you really so eager to disobey your boss’s orders?”
Ryan laughed. “You actually believe he’ll honor that deal? You poor idiot. Just so you know, he’s the one who sent us. He wants to—Wait, what are you doing?”
I tapped the confirmation button and said flatly, “Oh, nothing. Just browsing.”
You have selected Howling Edge for the voucher.
His smirk disappeared. “Tch. n, grab that brat and bring him to the Grand Colosseum! Don’t let any of them get inside the Hall of Classes!”
To the Grand Colosseum? Ah, so Graham wants the duel to happen now, trying to erase any dangerous variables before they grow out of control.
From that alone, I could infer his motive. Upon learning that I had cleared the fifth scenario, he must have grown impatient and decided to push the duel forward before I could complete my class advancent. Well, that wasn’t completely out of my expectations of his personality. Fortunately, he had no idea I held a legendary class and didn’t have to enter the Hall of Classes to advance.
Unfortunately, this wasn’t the case for both Boris and Michelle.
“Michelle! Boris! Let’s carve open a path to the Hall of Classes!” I shouted. “Once we’re inside, they won’t be able to lay a hand on us!”
“Okay!” Michelle replied, eyes sharp and hand ready to fire the arrow she was holding.
“Fine by .” Boris just smiled and imdiately charged straight at the nearest group of enemies like a battering ram.
