nAdrian finally managed to memorized all the things in the book that was handed to him. He managed to finish the book within 7 hours and 18 minutes. His mother did say that if he actually studied well instead of playing games he could have gotten first place but Adrian managed to become third in class without much effort because he has good grasp on topics once he actually listens. Adrian learns by paying attention once and his brain deconstructs the thoughts so that the end result would be acceptable by his brain’s logic. Each individual has different learning ability and technique which is why some people learn more through a lecture while others learn more through activities. Adrian and Marlon were called the ‘nerd twins’ in school because they mostly talk about games, comics, manga and anime at school which is why some girls stay clear of them even though they are good looking.

nAdrian approached Aernas and asked him if he could take the test early and the latter nodded. Adrian was expecting a paper test but instead was given a visual test in which Aernas draws runes in the air using his mana and projections appeared when he drawn multiple runes in the air which astounded Adrian because he did not know that you could actually apply runes like that. Aernas told him that you could only affect the elements when you become a Master Scribe like him which means Adrian has a long way to go before he could attempt what Aernas is actually doing.

nAernas finished drawing the runes and they turned into phantasmal objects and he then spoke.

n” Please arrange the necessary words to the object you see that is being projected. You have 10 minutes to do so.”

nAdrian then thought that it is basically matching type. He would match the enchantments to the object. He matched the defense enchantments to the armor. The offensive enchantments to the sword that is floating. Utility enchantments to the cape. It was rather easy once you could read the actual words. Adrian deciphered the runes without the help of the system which means he relied on the things that he read from the book which included the symbols and letter used in the universe of Pandemonium. Pandemonium was actually the only VR game right now that could accurately translate all languages in the world. The design team might have burned their eyebrows off to actually make a new language just for the game and translating every language and even dialects.

nAdrian was finished and told Aernas. Aernas did not even need to check the answers before he nodded his head and approved. He then tested Adrian on his memorization skills by writing a symbol and telling Adrian what the symbol is. The symbols were actually the letters of the alphabet that the runic age uses. There were only fifteen symbols but each has an intricate design that could not mistake one from the other. Adrian was given a leeway by being able to get three wrong before he is gets a fail. Adrian passed the test but got two wrong because he got confused for a second. The last test was to draw a simple float spell in the paper talisman and let an object it is attached to float for three seconds.

nAernas was certain that Adrian would fail this test because he designed this test to fail. He wanted Adrian to fail not because he did not want him as an apprentice but to teach Adrian that failure is not the end but just another chance to learn. He watched Adrian’s first attempt and was astounded because a partial lift was observed when Adrian sticked the talisman on the brush. It seems Adrian has more of a talent in being a scribe that he initially thought. Adrian spent his remaining hour that was given to him as a time limit. Adrian was attempting to make the brush float for at least three seconds but was unable to. He managed to make the brush float for one second though. Adrian turned to Aernas expecting him to disqualify him but was shocked to hear that he passed instead. He bowed to Aernas as a sign of deep gratitude in accepting him as an apprentice.

nTier: Rare

nDescription: Used to write the findings of the Scribe. Only the scribe who owns this journal could read what is written on it unless he authorized others to read its contents.

nAdrian once again thanked Aernas and told him he would try his best even though he would not be a full time scribe. Aernas told him that a beginner scribe must be on adventures in order for them to experience the wonder of magic to be able to decipher it. Adrian was delighted by the facts that Aernas told him and he was only told to report back to him every so often or if he needed help and if he becomes an intermediate Scribe. He was then given books about the symbols and languages. Luckily now that he was a scribe, he just needed the book in order to look up the contents. He unlocked the system language auto translate as a passive. He asked Aernas how he could achieve the weapon mastery skill and Aernas told him that he could ask the Chief of the Security Forces for that. He bid Aernas goodbye because he has to report to Ascalor.

nOn the way to Ascalor, Adrian checked the new skills and title he managed to obtain.

nHe got two new skills by becoming a Scribe. He would get new skills by becoming more proficient and leveling up the skills for the sub job class. He also got a great title to accompany it. the beta testers did say that being the first in something gives great rewards and now he was living example of that. Now that he has a sub job class, he went to Ascalor to finally clear the quest he was given.

nThe quest Growing Stronger III has been cleared

nRing of Power has been given as a quest reward

nItem: Ring of Power

nTier: Uncommon

nEffect: Strength 15

nThe ring was just a plain ring made of a brown metal. Adrian still used the ring because he still has a ring slot available. Now that the chain quest Ascalor given him has been finished, he went to look for the Chief of Security but was stopped by Ascalor.

n” It seems you manage to increase you blood purity brat. I will not ask you how you did it but since you are a promising talent. I should tell you how to become a greater demon.” Ascalor said.

n●Quest Notification●

nAwaken the Persona

nAscalor wants you to become stronger so that you could rise to the top. He sees promise in you so do not fail him.

nClear Condition: Become a Greater Demon

nReward: Epic Spatial magic skillbook

nRequirements:

na.) Reach Level 50

nb.) Condense your Daemos Core

nc.) Defeat Enemies 5 levels higher than you(100)

nAdrian accepted the quest because he would have a definite path to become a greater demon. Adrian asked Ascalor what does the condensing of the Daemos core is but was only told to explore it by himself. Defeating higher level enemies would be difficult because of the level correction that occurs. Level correction decreases the damage you could deal to monsters that are higher leveled than you. It seems becoming a greater demon is no easy feat. Before Adrian said goodbye to Ascalor, he asked him how could he go to towns or cities filled with ‘humans’.

nAscalor then answered ” I see. You also want to explore in human settlements. In that case why not learn the Glamour spell.”

n” How could I gain the Glamour spell then?” Adrian asked.

n” Ho..Ho.. It is really easy. You just need to imagine yourself without horns, runes and a different skin tone. You would not actually transform per se but you would only fool the other people’s sense of perception towards you. You must be careful of Sages who could pierce through the veil of the illusion because even they have an inkling of using origin magic. Nevertheless, the spell is useful.” Ascalor said.

n“Then how could I teach the polymorph spell to my soulbounds. They are too eye catching. I do not want unnecessary trouble heading my way.” Adrian asked again.

n” For magical creature related matters, ask the grumpy old Pann. He knows stuff regarding your creatures.” Ascalor answered.

nAdrian thanked and bid farewell to Ascalor when he was finished asking him. He must first acquire the weapon’s mastery before he tackles the monster part of the job advancement quest. The road to becoming strong is a long arduous path.
