Time slowly went by and before anyone could realize it, it was just a week left before the monthly assessment.Scarlett had patched things up with Maple and placed her full concentration on training, even though she felt that her instructor was pretty slow.She also ignored the third chain of the quest for the time being. The quest could be shared with ten people and that spoke volumes of how dangerous the quest was.In all this, Scarlett never forgets that her main goal was to save her brother but she was still weak.* * * Scarlett was currently in the training room with instructor Talon."Concentrate!!" Instructor Talon corrected again messaging his temples."I'm trying but it's hard, being on fire without actually catching fire, what do I even need that for, assessment is just next week. Please instructor Talon teach me something that is offensive" Scarlett pleaded but her pleas fell on deaf ears."I will teach you at my own pace. Now quit whining and start working on increasing t
Nebillon city had many markets, there was even a grocery market but players rarely went there, although one could eat in SSO. It was still advised to log out at least once in two months.As SSO was a prototype it could have many unforeseen side effects, well at least that's what the students thought and the only thing keeping them at bay were these thoughts.Scarlett made her way into the busy market looking for any life-saving tool although she already had one, it didn't hurt to have another. Losing her hard earn levels was a nightmare, not because she was afraid to fight more creatures but because she had no time. It was just a week before the assessment and losing just one level could spell the end for you.She then walked into a store that sold accessories made of jade. Most life-saving tools were accessories so a good start."Welcome, welcome!!" an enthusiastic voice came from the other side of the counter."Hello?" Scarlett tilted her head in confusion. She heard the voice but c
Few hours later Scarlett logged out. Fortunately, she got almost everything, the one thing remaining was elemental stones, not just hers but for the others too and she was hoping on them to get the coins she needed to buy them.After putting down her glasses, she was greeted by Maple's angry expression."I thought you said it was important?""It is important" Scarlett mumbled and then shook her head. She told her everything Alan told her while removing a lot of things though and inputting hers just to be safe."How do you even know all of that?" Maple eyed her suspiciously."Well actually..." Scarlett tried to explain but she was interrupted by Maple."Don't tell if you don't want to. I can't take it when you lie to me" Maple sighed with a dejected look. Ajax wasn't the only reason she was stressed, she had no idea what Scarlett must be going through but she wasn't telling her about it.Seeing the atmosphere becoming awkward she decided to change the topic."Where are your ghost frien
Deep in an underground facility, a young man stared at the reports in his hand and smiled. He couldn't suppress the joy in his heart."You have finally found a way to wipe his memory?""Yes, young master and you should probably continue reading the report" the man standing beside him said.The young man being referred to as young master nodded and continued reading until his eyes widened. "White? How is that possible?""I had them redo the test a couple of times but it kept giving the same results," the assistant said."A white mana core? It sounds unbelievable, the highest so far is gold and Aviva is the only one we have captured with a golden core, how can there be white all of a sudden" the young man lost his composure.While the world was still in the dark about mana core and other related subjects, he had been studying them for years."I was shocked as well, but isn't this a good thing? We have someone stronger than Aviva ever was" the assistant said."Do not say that...Aviva had
Two hours later, Wallace regained consciousness with absolutely no recollection of himself, he was completely blank."Let's begin separation and then we'll call for the young master" Dr. Link said to the other men in white coats.Wallace was then moved to a circular table where his code would be temporarily removed. Things were done carefully this time as they made him unconscious again.Several minutes later, a floating disk with a white manacore sitting on top flew towards the glass pod in the center of the room and ever so gently placed the manacore inside it.After the manacore was placed in, other floating disks started appearing, each carrying a purple or red mana core and then flying towards the opening of the pod.What happened then was a feast for the eyes. As the other manacores entered the pod, each released a hue that was absorbed by the white core.Thirty minutes later, the white core was brought out again, still retaining its color even after absorbing all those differen
"Oh yeah I was right all along I'm alive again" a voice suddenly sounded in Scarlett's mind space.Surprised, Scarlett raised her head to see who it was but what she saw was a ghost dancing in slow motion. It was a male ghost that looked pretty young and maybe because of his funny dancing, she did not even feel scared."Who are you and how did you come inside me" Scarlett failed to notice that her question was a bit weird but the ghost caught it and gave her a weird expression."Wow how can a young girl like you say that with a straight face even I would feel embarrassed" the ghost clicked his tongue and shook his head.Scarlett's lips twitched, she was confused what exactly did she say that was embarrassing."Uh you guys are so disgusting, anyway why are you here?" another ghost appeared startling Scarlett and the first ghost."I should be asking you that" the first ghost said with a raised brow and folded arms.Scarlett was getting confused, three more ghosts appeared and she wonder

Her sight hovered around the soul points stat that showed 500."What the hell is soul point?" she understood what the others meant but this concept was new to her.[Soul point refers to the strength of your consciousness] the system answered in its robotic voice."So my mind space have nothing to do with it?" Scarlett asked again trying to get a better understand of things.[The strength of your mind space depends on your consciousness, that is why host is about able to accommodate five souls in her mind space]Scarlett nodded in understanding. The system's explanation was clear and simple, easy to understand."Can't you change your voice to become more normal?" Scott's voice sounded at the side. He wa
School was to start the next day so after eating, she went back to her room to prepare her things.Done with that she laid on her bed and decided to check out her new system."System menu" she called out and the system screen appeared in front of her.[Menu]— Status— Quests— Shop— Skills— InfoShe clicked on quests only to see letters in red making her sit up.[4 HOURS REMAINING]Under it, the first option,which was daily quests was written in red.[Daily Quests][Other Quests]She then clicked on daily quests.[Run 10000 meters: 0/10000m][Reward: +5 stamina, +10 exp][Punishment: -5 Stamina]Scarlett eyes opened wide on seeing the quest.
