  …

  “Let’s start,” Sean urged.

  “We have to finish the baptism before dawn.”

  Marvin nodded, somewhat excited.

  Under Sean’s instructions, he quickly moved in front of the Night Monarch’s stele and knelt down.

  With a solemn expression, he gently swiped the dust on the stele with his right hand.

  Sean arrived behind him and also knelt and began whispering something.

  He was using the Anzed language.

  One of the most ancient languages in this world!

  Marvin could only roughly understand what he was saying. He was calling the soul of the Night Monarch.

  Anzed people believed that after great people died, their soul would neither enter the underworld nor the heavens, but instead wander around the human world.

  Under the call of their kin or someone inheriting their will, those Sages’ souls could reappear.

  Sean’s whispering became more unintelligible, but there seemed to be a force ripping through time and space!

  He just heard him saying:

  “Monarch of the Eternal Night in the endless space and time, please once again honor your promise.”

  “You gave me the night crown, and those who lead the Night Walkers no longer hesitate.”

  “You gave me the night eyes, to see though Fate’s mystery.”

  “You gave me the blessing of strength, to keep passing on the dark bird totem.”

  “I am already old and weak now, the torch has to be passed on.”

  He stopped there and gave Marvin a meaningful glance, hinting him to take it from there.

  “Monarch of the Eternal Night in the endless space and time, please once again honor your promise.”

  “Grant this young self the night crown, night vision, and blessing of strength.”

  “When the eternal night arrives, there will always be a burning flame in Feinan.”

  This part of the Anzed ancient language was very hard to pronounce, but with Sean’s help, Marvin managed to smoothly read it aloud!

  There seemed to be a pair of eyes opening in the dark.

  Marvin felt a strange gaze watching him.

  On the originally blank stele, a green fire began to burn. From a distance, it would look like a will-o’-the-wisp.

  The green flame spread from Marvin’s right hand to his whole body.

  Sean’s eyes displayed a hint of happiness!

  The Night Monarch’s will descended!

  Marvin had been acknowledged by the Night Monarch and the official baptism began.

  This green fire was the remaining will of the Night Monarch in this world, after his death.

  Marvin would undergo a transformation!

  …

  At that moment, Marvin only felt warm all over.

  The green fire didn’t injure him, instead making him more comfortable.

  A log window immediately appeared:

  [Spend 10000 experience (battle/general) to advance to a 2nd rank class – Night Walker]

  Marvin immediately chose to do so!

  Why had he worked so hard? Wasn’t it to turn into a powerful Night Walker?

  But he hadn’t expected that he would need so much experience!

  The cost of leveling his ranger class to level 6 was 4800 exp!

  Yet turning into a level 1 Night Walker was no less than 10000 exp!

  It was fortunate that he had saved enough experience for this!

  Marvin currently had 7000 general exp and 5553 battle exp, enough to cover this huge experience requirement.

  Battle exp and general exp are the same, both the highest grade of exp, so neither had priority over the other. Thus Marvin chose to spend the 7000 general exp first and then spend 3000 battle exp.

  The next second, the green fire began entering Marvin’s body.

  Marvin only felt an explosive strength flowing into him.

  Log messages kept popping one after the other!

  [You received the baptism of the Night Monarch (Soul Remains of a Sage)]

  [Baptism completed, you received a new class – Night Walker]

  [Night Walker level is currently 1]

  [You received a class specialty – Nocturnal]

  [Your body has been transformed by the advancement, Dexterity +1, Perception +1, HP +50]

  [You received 60 Class Skill Points for (Night Walker)]

  [Your class skill list has been updated…]

  [You received the blessings of the Night Monarch (bonus)…]

  …

  A large amount of messages kept popping up and Marvin couldn’t see for a while.

  The green fire gradually disappeared. Marvin took a deep breath after feeling the presence of that pair of eyes disappearing.

  ‘Finally advanced!’

  [Nocturnal Kill], the hidden specialty, indeed didn’t appear. Marvin knew it would appear once he had killed enough people in the night.

  And the class specialty [Nocturnal] was the Night Walker’s trademark.

  [Nocturnal]: All attributes +10% at night, no change during the day.

  ‘Eh?’

  ‘No change during the day? Wasn’t there a 20% penalty during the day in the game?’

  Marvin discovered that the Night Walker’s specialty seemed a bit different from what he remembered.

  At least the real world’s Night Walkers were stronger than those in the game.

  No penalty in daytime, bonus in nighttime, this was simply too amazing!

  All attributes +10% was already a very abnormal bonus by itself. It as equivalent to a pretty good bottle of medicine. And there was still [Nocturnal Kill], an even stronger specialty.

  Marvin’s fighting strength at night would be off the charts!

  And his skill list got updated when he advanced.

  Besides ranger skills, he also had many Night Walker skills.

  He was just level 1 right now, giving him only 5 or 6 skills, each of them extremely powerful.

  Marvin hesitated for a moment and spent 50 of his 60 SP on one skill!

  [Eternal Night (50)]: You can create a fake night for a short time during daytime.

  This was a very powerful PK skill!

  More outstanding that fighter’s [Cloak of Darkness].

  Cloak of Darkness created a black mist for a short duration, hindering the opponent’s line of sight. Eternal Night truly created the darkness of the night.

  The amount of skill points would determine the range and duration.

  50 SP was enough to create night that would cover roughly 10 meters for 10 seconds.

  This was enough for Marvin to quickly use a powerful combo.

  The remaining 10 points were spent on another practical skill, [Summon Night Crow].

  This skill could summon a Night Crow at night to be used for reconnaissance. The skill’s base duration was 3 minutes and every additional skill point would increase the duration by 1 minute.

  In other words, Marvin’s summoned Night Crow could last about 13 minutes.

  As Marvin was happily enjoying his advancement, the girl on the side suddenly let out a surprised yelp.

  A small bit of ghostly fire was wrapping around her.

  “Don’t be nervous, this is the Night Monarch’s blessing!” Sean explained.

  Kate felt relieved and curiously looked at that round green fire gradually merging with her body.

  Marvin, who just finished his advancement, stood up and looked at Kate with curiosity.

  He didn’t know what she would get.

  Sean patted Marvin’s shoulder. “Kid, you are already a qualified Night Walker.”

  “Members of our organization don’t have any set duty. Your only mission right now is to kill the crimson patriarch of the twin snakes cult.”

  “But you are still weak. Wait until you have fully d
eveloped and then make some trouble for him. As for the others, unless there is an emergency, we won’t gather the members.”

  “Where you go next is up to you.”

  Marvin nodded.

  He was extremely grateful to Sean. The old man gave him the opportunity to advance to Night Walker and gifted him a magic weapon!

  And a full year of blacksmithing, giving Marvin a remarkable tempering.

  He was about to express his thanks, but the old blacksmith suddenly said in a low voice, “This girl isn’t simple.”

  “Befriending her is good. It would be advantageous and a harmless matter. Her future has no limit. The Night Walker organization need allies like her.”

  Marvin instantly understood.

  He also let Kate receive the Night Monarch’s blessing because of wanting to make friends with a future powerful Sorcerer.

  The Night Walker organization wasn’t big but it had many allies. The Great Elven King of Thousand Leaves Forest, for example, was one of their most loyal allies.

  These relationships needed to be protected. Old Sean as a former leader naturally dealt with these things easily.

  Even though it might seem a bit calculated, if one wanted to survive in this world, having all kinds of friends and allies was indispensable.

  Thus, Marvin nodded.

  …

  After a few minutes, the ghostly fire was completely absorbed by Kate. She opened her eyes with a bright expression on her face.

  “Thank you,” she said sincerely to Sean. “I seem to understand a little how to control my strength.”

  The old fox only chuckled. “This is your own power. The Night Monarch’s blessings only gave you a path to follow.”

  “Also, this is Marvin’s advancement ceremony. If you wish to express your gratitude, you should also thank him.”

  “He was the one attracting the will of the Night Monarch, giving you the blessings on the way.”

  Hearing the old man say this, Marvin couldn’t help being somewhat moved.

  He was giving Marvin all the credit. And Kate seemed to have received a lot of benefits from the Night Monarch’s blessings.

  As expected, Kate hesitated and then said, “It seems like I don’t need the amethyst rock.”

  “I’m about to go back, Big Sis needs my help. If you are interested, you can come take a look at Rocky Mountain.”

  “But before I leave, I’ll give you a gift to repay you.”

  She then softly chanted an incantation.

  Old Sean slightly squinted.

  This was a summoning spell!

  Marvin heard a part of the spell. This was a common pet summoning incantation used by Sorcerers.

  ‘Is she summoning her pet?’

  Marvin felt somewhat curious.

  …

  Soon, a simple magic circle appeared in front of the three. Something plump emerged from the magic circle!

  Its skin was pink and it looked chubby. It was extremely adorable. There was a pair of very small wings on its back.

  “Ding! Ding! Quickly wake up!”

  Kate was holding this plump thing. The creature lazily kept her eyes closed, pretending to be asleep and not wanting to wake.

  Marvin and Sean looked at each other in dismay.

  The girl was somewhat embarrassed.

  She explained, “Ding is still young, she needs long periods of sleep…”

  She then blushed and pinched that small thing’s cheek and shouted in a low voice, “Ding, wake up quickly!”

  “Otherwise, next time you wake up there won’t be any coconut jelly to eat!”

  That last sentence seemed effective. The pitiful thing strenuously opened its eyes and tried hard to move its wings.

  At that time, Marvin saw what it was!

  ‘Heavens!’

  ‘It’s actually an extremely rare Fortune Fairy?’

  ‘Even if it’s a child, isn’t Kate’s luck simply too frightening?’

  Marvin was completely speechless.

  He finally understood what being a [Child of the Plane] entitled. Born as a Fate Sorcerer under the care of Fate, her pet would obviously be a Fortune Fairy.

  Old Sean’s expression also changed. He clearly had enough experience to recognize Ding’s identity!

  Fortune Fairies were a very rare type of lifeforms. Forget the common wood fairy, even a greater fairy couldn’t compare with this mythic lifeform!

  In all of Feinan’s history, not many fortune fairies appeared.

  People didn’t know much about them, but Marvin knew. Fortune Fairies were in fact fragments of a Fate Tablet!

  During the third era, many living creatures successfully became gods because they received a fragment of one of the three fate tablets. But some fragments went missing, or developed intelligence, drifting away amongst Feinan’s wildernesses.

  Even gods couldn’t find these Fate tablet’s fragments. A small portion of those turned into creatures that went beyond an ordinary person’s imagination. Fortune Fairies were one of them.

  Feinan had all kinds of aloof and remote gods, but they were unlucky all this time because the fate fragments took shape of creatures like fortune fairies.

  They usually slept in the wilderness only waiting for a rare classes such as Fate Sorcerers to summon them as pets, probably because of their perception. And they thus became Fate Sorcerers’ pets.

  …

  “Come, Ding, give a blessing to this Mister.”

  Kate pinched Ding’s chubby face as if she was coaxing a child.

  The latter yawned, dispirited. It took a glance at Marvin and displayed disdain. “Why should I bless such a vile man?”

  “I don’t like him.”

  Her voice was soft, but her tone was sassy.

  Kate was embarrassed. Her face turned stiff and she said, “This is an order from your Master!”

  “Ah? I dislike this kind of order without a reason the most!” Ding angrily flew up. She extended her short small finger at Marvin and yelled, “I’ll strike this man with thunder and lightning!”

  “Aurora Lightning!”

  Lightning suddenly flashed in the sky!

  Marvin was startled!

  3rd circle spell, Aurora Lightning?

  And it was an insta cast? He would die if he delayed!

  He hurriedly withdrew, frightened, and rolled away!

  But his reaction speed was nowhere near the Aurora Lightning’s speed. The frightening electric current directly ran through Marvin’s body, frying his hair and turning his face pitch back!

  But he didn’t have any negative reactions apart from those!

  ‘This is Aurora Lightning? I’ve already been electrocuted?’ Marvin looked at his log window with fright.

  He hadn’t lost a single hair.

  ‘Hold on…’

  A few log windows appeared:

  [A Fortune Fairy used a 3rd circle spell on you, Aurora Lightning.]

  [Dodge failed…]

  [Fortune Fairy exclusive specialty – (Everything Will Be Fine) activated… Modification occurred in the Aurora Lightning…]

  [You received Fortune Fairy’s blessing – Luck +1 – Duration: Unknown]

  …

  Marvin immediately checked his character window and sure enough, at the bottom was a new line, [Luck +1].

  ‘Luck +1? What’s the use?‘

  Marvin didn’t have any similar experiences in the past. A stat like Luck was very vague and couldn’t really be checked.

  Ding, still floating after casting the spell, suddenly became very dispirited. “Wuwuwu,” she wept while falling.

  “Why is it that every time I want to kill, it turns into a blessing?”

  “I’m really too kind! I want coconut jelly, I want to sleep!”

  Marvin was speechless.

  Kate carried Ding in her arms, feeling somewhat sorry for her. Ding laid down in her embrace and immediately fell asleep.

  “Ding’s blessing consumed a lot of strength,” expl
ained Kate.

  “She is still young after all.”

  “I hope this blessing can help you when you are in danger.”

  “If you have time, come take a look at Rocky Mountain.”

  After saying this, Kate didn’t stay any longer and bid farewell to Marvin and Sean before leaving Thousand Leaves Forest alone.

  …

  And after advancing, Marvin also had to part with Sean.

  The old man returned to Oak Town to continue his half-secluded life.

  Marvin continued his journey north, going toward the northwest.

  Not only was the eternal flower, the flower most loved by the wood elves, in that direction, but there was also a page of the Book of Nalu.

  He had promised Hathaway to find this badly damaged artifact.

  As dawn slowly arrived, Marvin tirelessly ran through the Thousand Leaves Forest.

  He was running absolutely unrestrained, with a pass in hand so that even if he met the Elven Iron Guard, they would easily let him through.

  He felt strength flowing all over his body after receiving the Night Monarch’s blessings.

  His attributes had once again been strengthened, and he also received an attribute point because his overall level reached 6. Marvin didn’t hesitate to use it on dexterity. This was the path he had chosen. He wouldn’t consider using a free attribute point in another stat until he had 25 dexterity.

  Thousand Leaves Forest was extremely huge, but Marvin felt familiar with many areas here.

  That page of the Book of Nalu could be considered the easiest artifact to find in all of Feinan, even if it was only a damaged one. There was no danger.

  ‘I remember it was north of a small elven village, and there seemed to be a waterfall there.’

  ‘The plunge pool at the bottom of the waterfall was extremely cold. Only those with cold resistance +5 or higher could dive down.’

  ‘The Book of Nalu was placed in that pool.’

  Marvin was on his way towards his objective while trying to recall the exact location of the hidden book of Nalu.

  Thousand Leaves Forest was really too vast, and that elven village only had a few distinctive signs. Without enough information, finding the book of Nalu was impossible.

  No wonder no one had found it all this time.
