Cosmic Peak

After seeing that something was way wrong than his initial expectation, Aren just sat down on the branch of the tree and took out his hammer as he started repairing it while checking out his other things like normal status and path status.

He would wait until that old man posted the quest in the Guild hall and more people flocked here after a day.

Suddenly, Aren heard a voice inside his head and saw the notification.

[As five billion people have officially entered the wild expanse, the World Leaderboard has been unlocked.]

Hearing that, Aren raised his brows, 'Five billion? The recent data indicated that the total population is six billion if I remember correctly. Hmmm...So only toddlers didn't enter yet, I guess.'

He then thought about World Leaderboard, and it appeared along with another notification.

[ Do you want to enter the Leaderboard with your real name or nickname?]

Aren thought for a moment and said, "Nickname, Ruine."

[World Leaderboard]

-DarkOne: level 20, Path level 7.

-Dragon God: level 20, Path level 7.

-AshEater: level 20, Path level 7.

-Kou King: level 20, Path level 7.

...

The list went on to 100, and all hundred people had reached level 20. There were only a few people who had used their real name, while others used fancy nicknames.

"Are they stuck at level 20 because of some condition? Hmm, that must be the case," Aren guessed as he looked at the leaderboard.

He didn't feel any sense of hurry or such thing because he had made his plans on how to move. He would waste one more day while sitting here, but he felt that it would be worth it.

While repairing the hammer, Aren looked at his status to check some things.

"Bloodline Orb...," Aren muttered looking at it, but then he shook his head as he didn't want to use it. He knows that it can make him powerful and give him other advantages, but he just doesn't feel like using it because of his suspicion of Rosflin's father.

The scale he gave didn't activate its effect, and he didn't even save Aren's mother and others in time even though Aren was sure that Rosflin's father could do it considering his strength and how he appeared to save him at the end. Aren felt expectations from Rosflin's father, and he also knew that he didn't have bad intentions, but Aren couldn't bring himself to use the Bloodline Orb. Another reason was that he felt that the Bloodline Orb would somehow change his race...well, obviously, it would, since it was a bloodline orb. But Aren didn't want to rush in those types of things.

He then looked at his path status.

.

<-Aren->

[ Path- Emporio Armalist ]

-Level: 6 [ 22,450/32,000 Exp ]

-Armalist Force: [ 400/400 ]

-Talent points: 2

-Skills: <Hyper Charge>, <Gear Enchantment>, <Gear Upgrade>.

-Articule Gears: [ Ikaros ], [Oberon], [Novas], [Destructo]--Slots: 5 ( 1 left ).

-Innate Gears: [ Astral-X Eyes ].

< Talents >

--> Armalist Drive+2: ( core of the path, merged with the soul. )

--> Armalist Cloak.

"Oh yeah, I got additional talent points from the test, and I still haven't used one I got after I leveled up the path to 6," Aren muttered before he looked at the grey bubbles.

One of them was Armalist Drive +3, and another was Emporio Zone.

[Armalist Drive +3]:- Upgrade your Armalist Drive: Increase your Articule gear slots to 7, Increase your Armalist Force capacity to 600, A new skill of Emporio Armalist unlocked: <Breakdown>.

Aren first put one talent point on Armalist Drive +3, and right after that, he saw a notification, heard a voice, and felt stronger.

[Since your soul has awakened, you will get five points added to your soul stat every time you upgrade your Armalist Drive.]

"Ohh...," Aren was kind of happy because that means that he can finally unlock his Emporio Zone talent.

[Emporio Zone]: A Crafting Zone for Emporio Armalist.

At first, he couldn't unlock this talent because it required fifty points in soul stat, but with the upgrade of Armalist Drive just now, He got five soul stat points, bringing his soul stat to 53.

"Let's see what this Emporio Zone is...," Aren muttered with high hopes as he used his remaining talent point to unlock Emporio Zone.
