Chapter 730: Interesting Development
A heavy realization set in as Northern gave his reply to the instructor, reflecting as a sharp and suddenly guarded expression on the face of the man with straw-colored, loose hair.
"You are from the dark continent?"
His tone carried a little bit of disbelief.
Northern nodded, asserting with his bland and stern reply.
"I am from the dark continent."
"How-w..."
He stuttered and stopped himself mid-sentence. Wearing a thick look on his face, he stared at Northern and nodded.
"That makes a lot of sense then."
He paused, catching his breath very briefly before he added, his eyes drifting over the rest of the cohort.@@@@
"Congratulations. You are the first cohort to clear the rift and more so, the first to come out. There will be a special reward waiting for you by the end of today. You can proceed to the warp portal and go to your hostelries to rest. Tonight there will be a carnival to celebrate Milhwa's three hundred years' death."
Northern responded:
"Thank you, sir."
He bowed his head slightly along with the rest of them. And they departed afterwards. Minutes later, back at the mansion with Northern back on his bed.
He stared at the wound he had incurred during his fight with the Guardian.
Thanks to his chaotic Regeneration, his wound had closed up completely, although it left an ugly scar across his chest. But Northern was positive the scar would disappear much later.
Changing his name had also removed him from the saving and defensive grace of the Void force of limitless void.
It was very sad but it was also a gladdening thing. He was not insane or anything like that, but being wounded during battle due to his own carelessness was very enjoyable.
All the time, Void force was there to save his cocky ass, or his wrecked decisions. It was unfair, life was unfair, but he wanted to have things a little bit more raw.
The single undisputed advantage of the name change ability.
Northern, now, could trick Ul. And if he could trick Ul, he probably could trick every other damn existence that was tied to his rebirth.
Yeah... He was talking about Nexus.
With every monster that he had slain, the system's recounting of his achievement and talent fragments gains were non-existent.
Northern suspected that he was absorbing soul essence before. But the more he fought, the more it became apparent.
He was not absorbing soul fragments. When he changed his name back to [Unwritten], what he saw made him definite of his suspicions during the battle.
Talent fragments: [5,678/6,000]
Before he entered the rift, he was at a thousand plus talent fragments, raked in by his summons, who are still fighting in the dungeon.
He did not receive any announcement of talent fragments gain but here they were.
Which meant, it was not that the gains did not come in, just that the voice of the system had been silenced from his ears.
Hopefully, that would mean that for that period of time the voice of the system was also silenced in Nexus' ears or his activities were blinded from Nexus' eyes.
Although it was a vague suspicion. But it had to be one of the two.
The most rewarding part however, the part that made Northern sure that he was tricking Ul,
was that...
"One, two, three, four..."
Northern counted with his eyes then beamed with a big smile when he was done counting.
"Seven items. Seven!!"
He had gained seven whopping items from the rift. Now, that was an interesting
development.
