The first to appear was Kiran. He maintained a stoic expression, not even showing a hint of whether he passed or failed. He folded his arms and left his private room, seating himself in the waiting area patiently.
Soon, another person ca out of their room, this one being Subli Notion. It was strange for the leader of them all to be one of the first to finish, but her wide smile told that she succeeded.
Well, that was obvious. Her difficulty was only 50%, and even the previous tiline version of her was able to reach Rank 6. Comparing that tiline’s Subli Notion to this one - at this specific point in both tilines - this one was vastly superior in every way.
When she saw Kiran seated there, her eyes lit up and she skipped over. "Handso protagonist, you already failed your mission?"
Kiran grimaced. He had no idea why Subli Notion called him a handso protagonist, but he found it irkso. Not only that, why did she straightaway assu he failed?!
"Hmph, don’t disturb . Just wait silently over there."
Shockingly, Kiran didn’t speak slowly or very detachedly when he replied Subli. Even towards Draco and the other generals, his words were few and his manner was aloof.
Subli’s eyes flashed with evil and she sat down beside Kiran. "Why are you trying to get rid of so quickly, Little Kiran? Are you scared that Big Sis will learn about your incompetence? Don’t worry, I don’t judge!"
Kiran’s face beca black. He wanted to fight with Subli, but she wore an honest and cute smile that would lt the heart of any onlooker. However, Kiran knew that this lovely and delicate exterior hid the world’s greatest evil within.
Kiran had been suppressed by Subli in every discussion they had, so he knew his best response was to be silent, but Subli was a master at provoking him in particular.
"I did not fail! I passed my test with ease, and I’m waiting for the others. Now wait patiently or scram!"
Subli lazily relaxed into her seat and waved her hand. "I never asked you whether you passed or not. Who cares about that? Why must you tell ? You think it’s impressive? Hehe, you are truly quite forward."
Kiran’s face alternated from blue to green and then to purple. He looked so stifled, like he was about to explode the next second. What made things worse was the uproarious laughter from Juno.
Unhappy, Kiran called out in his mind. "Mother!!"
Juno stifled her laughter and tried to wear a stern look. "Yes, dear?"
"Why are you laughing? She’s simply bullying !" Kiran whined like a little boy.
Juno’s eyes beca soft as she saw her son’s tantrum. In front of others, he was always cold and formal, but with her, he was no different from a little lad... her little lad.
"En, mother was wrong. I won’t laugh again." Juno promised with a solemn face.
Kiran gazed at her suspiciously. "You... are you lying?"
Juno then beca stern. "How could you doubt ?! Have I ever lied to you, my darling son?!"
Kiran smiled and agreed. "Never. I trust my mother."
Juno nodded. "Good. By the way, you should focus on the outside."
Kiran was startled by her reminder, and when he focused on reality, he saw that Subli Notion’s face was re inches from his.
In this instant, he could see right into her pretty hazel eyes that seed to display a scene of purity and wholesoness to all onlookers. His eyes also inviolably lowered down to Subli’s small lips that were puckered together cutely.
Kiran froze. He had been caught off-guard this ti, not expecting Subli to be so forward. After all, even when this evil loli played others to death, she never relied on her assets or seduction, only her cuteness.
After all, Subli was incredibly arrogant deep down and disdained using her body as a tool. Hence, she never wore any clothes that showed off her chest. Most of her clothes were modest, so you could only see the shape but not the skin.
Kiran himself had never tangled with a woman. Despite his handsoness and his coolness, he was a true-blue v.i.r.g.i.n. He was trying to awaken his mother’s sarira all this while, since when did he had the ti to play around?
This was also one of the reasons Juno felt extrely guilty. Due to his obsession with reviving her, he had cast away most of the important things a young man like him should partake in.
Kiran breathed slowly. In truth, he was extrely tempted. If it had been soone like Rina or any other woman, he would have pushed them aside imdiately and resud his cold facade.
After all, he had been courted by many won, many tis over his life, so far more overbearing and forward than Subli could ever hope to be. None of them had been able to take advantage of him, but Subli...
Seeing his reaction, Subli’s lips curled and the flash of evil returned. In truth, she had also been tempted in that instant, but unlike Kiran who was more normal, this demonic loli was not easy to subdue.
Subli pulled back and sat down. "It seems you have ntal issues. Zoning out beside a beauty? How can you be a man like that? Or has Cobra finally managed to capture you, hehe?"
Kiran clenched his fists and gritted his teeth, roaring in anger. "COURTING DEATH!!"
Before Subli could continue to provoke Kiran, another person appeared. This ti, it was Deployed Soldier who had arrived and his expression was calm.
When he saw Subli and Kiran together, his eyes flashed in a strange light as he made an interesting observation. Both Subli and Kiran had blond hair, while Kiran’s eyes were aqua blue and Subli’s were hazel.
Sitting together like this, they looked like an older brother and his little sister, but knowing that was impossible, Deployed Soldier shook his head.
He just nodded to them and sat down, waiting for the rest. For that matter, Subli decided to let off Kiran for now. She would continue to dosticate him later, when they were alone.
After Deployed Soldier, there was a long spell of inactivity as everyone waited patiently. In fact, Deployed Soldier even started practicing so sword forms he learned from his class change quest.
Kiran took this example as a good one and began performing a unique, intense variation of Tai Chi. As for Subli, she just summoned a serf player to deliver so doc.u.nts from the Aether Hall to the Guild Hall.
After that, she resud her work that she had put off, though one could notice that her speed was far faster and her look was more relaxed.
Soon, another person ca out. It was Cobra, and he made no attempts to hide his success. He smiled and walked up to Kiran, then the two began to spar casually.
Next to erge was Uno, and the Godless Paladin smirked. Taking Cobra and Kiran’s example, he began to spar with Deployed Soldier to while away the ti.
After that, three people ca out at once, which were Silent Walker, Dreary Traveler, and Warm Spring. All of them manifested noticeable changes, unlike Kiran, Cobra, Deployed Soldier, and Uno.
Silent Walker still wore his trademark black suit with that perpetual slight smirk. However, his skin had beco pale like a vampire, and his eyes had changed. His white cornea beca black, while his black pupils were now white.
Along with that, his body seed to be emitting so black smoke in low quantities. He now looked less like so handso Hollywood celebrity/young CEO, and more like a lord of darkness.
Dreary Traveler was an average looking fellow with a V-shaped face. His forr brown hair was now black and his brown eyes had changed to a blood-red color. It was similar to Silent Walker actually, in that his cornea was black while his pupils were blood red.
His neck had the tattoo of a skull on it, while his aura radiated necrosis and rot. It felt like looking at him for too long would make one acquire the status effect.
As for Warm Spring, she hadn’t changed much. Her eyes were still a light blue color, but her freckles had disappeared and her auburn hair had beco white in color.
She radiated an aura of holiness and warmth, making one feel comfortable. If NPCs were here, they would exclaim in shock, because a single Warm Spring’s aura had the sa healing effects as Vita City-State.
That was in terms of doubling life-span and preventing all illnesses. Her baggy white robe also beca more regal, though her body was still barren on all sides.
She also removed her glasses, as it seed she no longer needed them.
After they appeared, many more also ca out. Slim Fatty was one, and she also manifested no real changes on the outside. Next was Rambunctious Buttlover, and he also seed the sa as always.
Noticing that Rina had yet to co out, he went to sit sowhere and began strumming his lute idly. He had seemingly llowed out greatly, but if Draco were here, he would pale greatly.
He knew that it wasn’t that Rambunctious was more mature now. He was simply a bow being nocked into the arrow, or an orbital missile that was prepped to fire, waiting for coordinates.
If a target that broke through his facade appeared, the world would tremble in fear. Right now, one could only pray that Draco could return before such a scenario occurred.
Next to erge were Boyd and Loving Aunt. Boyd looked unchanged, but Loving Aunt manifested so slight changes. Her body beca even more seductive and her modest robes beca the dieval equivalent of bikini armor.
Her black hair was now a sickly green color while her green eyes adopted a pale grey hue. Many vines curled around her limbs, and there was a slightly greenish-black mist surrounding her.
This mist seed to corrode the very air itself, so Loving Aunt quickly took it back into her body. She smiled and moved to sit with Warm Spring, gently conversing with the young girl.
For that matter, Warm Spring seed happy and opened up to Loving Aunt wholeheartedly.
After them ca the lovely twins, Jada and Jade. The two cute girls held hands, as they had entered the sa room together. They also manifested so changes.
Their hair and eyes remained the sa, Jada being a fiery red color and Jade’s being a pale blue. However, Jada’s body carried an aura of fire while Jade radiated an aura of ice.
Around Jada, a Fire Phoenix coiled in the form of an emanation while around Jada was an Ice Phoenix. Both phoenixes looked exactly the sa and also frolicked with each other harmoniously.
After them ca Sanji and Akainu. Sanji looked the sa, and so did Akainu. It was unknown whether they passed or failed.
Last but not the least were Noble Writer and Happy Saint. The two of them didn’t bother to hide their excited expressions, showing that they had probably succeeded in their endeavors.
Happy Saint looked the sa, but his hands were covered in tal, like the skin from his elbow to his digits had been coated with chro paint which was used for cars.
As for Noble Writer, one could see various words manifesting themselves around him occasionally. He even began writing in the air as he stood there, the ambient Worldly Energy rushing to be his ink and the world was his parchnt.
As everyone settled down, they beca tense. Even though Rina had entered last, they were very clear that she would likely challenge a Divine Class thanks to the information Eva fed them about the Class Up itself.
Possessing a Divine Item would theoretically allow one to challenge a Divine Class, and after Subli checked the guild account, she affird as such.
After what seed to be 3 hours, Rina appeared from her private room, and the core mbers of Umbra rushed to check whether she had failed or succeeded.
