Chapter 285 - Collapse of the Ladros City: Prologue

"About our legion members..." Souta asked as he glanced at Lumilia who was standing behind him.

"I've already calculated the reward and give them points according to their contributions in the legion war," Lumilia replied to his question.

The legion members were happy and excited because they won the war. At first, they weren't sure whether they could win or not but in the middle of the battle they found that their group has a huge advantage and was on the lead of the war.

They received points and it made them go wild. They could use it to redeem various things in the treasury of the legion. They were delighted that they didn't need to use their money to buy potions, weapons, and armors. They could just stock up their points and redeem high-grade weapons in the treasury.

The points system of the legion did a good job in encouraging the members to take several quests.

"I see. Good job. If you want something. Just tell me." Souta nodded with a satisfied expression.

"Then, how about we hired some blacksmith, Souta?" Lumilia suggested to him.

"Blacksmith?" Souta muttered as he rubbed his chin.

"Yes, we don't have someone who could repair the member's weapon in our legion. The members of our legion are going out to the weaponsmith in the market to repair their weapons." Lumilia explained to him.

"I understand the problem." Souta nodded and he looked at her before he added casually, "I'll leave it to you. I'm sure that some of the blacksmiths out there wouldn't decline our legion. Also, include the repair to the points system."

"Leave it to me," Lumilia replied with a serious expression.

He smiled and he left his office. He went straight to his room before he lay down on the bed.

"Let's see.."

Souta looked at his system and saw the system notification that he received before. He took down a group of B-rank after all so he was expecting good rewards for him.

[Congratulations for completing the "Legion War" quest!]

[Processing the rewards...]

[Processing complete...]

[You've received 100,000 exp, 10 skill points, and 15 free attribute points!]

This was a pretty decent reward for him. After all, he defeated a group of B-ranks with Yuko and Lynn. He wondered what would be his rewards if he soloed those B-ranks.

[Experience points reached!]

[You've level up!]

[You've received 1 skill point!]

[You've received 2 free attribute points!]

[Strength attribute increased by 15!]

[Agility, Dexterity, Intelligence, and Vitality attributes increased by 10!]

'Oh? Level up...' Souta looked at his stats with a satisfied smile on his face. He was level 36 and was close to level 40. Just a little bit more and he would be able to reach the level limit of his second evolution.

He will try to participate in the Grand Tournament and trigger the quest. That's one of a big quest with lots of rewards. He recalled that some of the players in the past join the big tournament in some large countries and reap huge rewards.

If everything goes well and he became the champion Souta would be able to level up once again according to his estimation. He also thinks that he would get skill points sufficient for him to promote his class and level up some of his skills.

The problem was Yanagi Shina. She was the strongest participant in this tournament in the whole kingdom. Not just her, the top 5 rankers of the Ladro Institute were undoubtedly powerful to keep him in bay. Their powers were either at the peak of B-rank and rank.

Also, the top students of other schools and academies were strong too.

There were only a few days left before the elimination of the Grand Tournament starts.

Souta decided that he will try to level up his skills in this short amount of time. He couldn't depend on his level alone. A high level wasn't enough. If he met someone who possessed a number of skills which was higher than the level of his skills then he would lose.

Just like Bargan. He was the strongest Hero-rank that Souta knew in the entire game without the power of blessing as his skills were on an entirely different realm than other Hero-rank.

"About the nobles..."

Souta didn't need to worry about them. He gave them a warning. Also, if they got out of hands the institute will not stay still watching them face their demise.

The next day, the Adventurers Guild approve of their request. They announced that the Dark Oculus Legion was now a Rank 2 Legion. It was an official announcement that everyone expected.

The legion could now accept more members and the quest that they will post on their quest board will increase by three-fold.

Souta left the affairs of the legion to Lumilia, his vice-commander. He felt bad about leaving all of this to her but she said that it was fine.

Lynn, Yujin, Bryan, Brando, and Alice formed their own party with Lumilia's help. Their party was an independent one which could take quests even without their help.

Jeanne and Wako of the fan club group will be promoted to deputy rank once they become B-rank adventurers. Souta and Lumilia recognized their strength in the Legion War as they defeated some of the B-ranks so they decided to promote them once they reach the appropriate rank.

Yanagi Shina has her own special rank in the legion. She was the Ace of the legion. She was an independent faction on her own and will not listen to the instructions of anyone except for the commander.

Jagret, Ginvi, and the rest of the Lanny corp came back and joined Souta's legion. After all, Souta promised Jimmy to reserved ten seats in his legion for the Lanny corporation. An additional four people came with them as the original Lanny corp in his party were only six.

Souta went to Adventurers Guild to find the Gale group but he heard from the other adventurers that they were in another country doing some quest.

The Gale group was the party that Souta met along with Jimmy. They also helped him in the incidents of the Gripen city which shook the entire kingdom. He wanted to invite them to his legion.

How unfortunate. Too bad they were in another country. He will try to invite them later if they come back to this city so he decided to reserve some seats for them in his legion.

B-rank?

According to Souta's evaluation, he still wasn't a match to Gregory. Gregory was entirely different than B-rank as he exclaimed that he defeat third evolution monster on his own before.

That's what Souta wanted to avoid. The noble head personally making a move was simply bad for him. Luckily, he had Yanagi Shina and the Ladro Institute on his back as a deterrent force to keep them in check.

Souta shook his head and he stood up. He walked toward the window and looked on the ground. He saw that the legion was busy. A lot of people were applying to join the legion as it became a Rank 2 Legion today.

They also didn't need to go to class today. The institute was going to focus itself on the upcoming Grand Tournament that will be held in the Royal Capital City of the Hebrei Kingdom.

A lot of students were busy preparing themselves for the elimination round in the next few days. Precisely, the elimination round will begin after four days. It will last for seven days.

"The formation is too quick..." He muttered before he turned around and wore his clothes. He then hung the vajra sword on his waist and exited the room.

A man with light green color hair and pupils was standing on top of a huge boulder of rock. He was wearing a black robe on top of a maroon long-sleeve shirt. His skin was pale and he had dark circles around his eyes. His name was Yuvn, a seven-circle officer of the Seven Deadly Sins.

In front of him were the members of the Seven Deadly Sins like him.

He slowly opened his mouth and said in a deep tone, "We're to invade the Hebrei Kingdom so prepare yourself. No matter what happens we will take back the bloodstones. That's our priority."

"So what's our plan?" A feminine voice sounded.

"We will divide this group into two. One will attack the airship that will go towards the capital while the other will retrieve the bloodstones from that Ladros City." Yuvn said as he explained his plan to his comrades. "We've also done our investigation regarding this kingdom. I've estimated the current force of this kingdom and I've got to say that the military prowess it possessed is high."

"So?" Pavoni asked with an irritated look.

"Well, that wouldn't be able to stop us. The group that will attack the airship will need to be wary of Azrim, he's a powerful existence. And the group that will attack the city will need to be wary of Bargan, that man is troublesome." Yuvn said with a serious expression.

Pavoni grinned and said, "We're going all out."

"Yeah, we're going to crush everyone and retrieve the bloodstones! We will sacrifice the people in that city!"
