Is this really a Game?!

"The Immortal Four." Tank whispers the words out as four blinding lights appear in front of him. He closes his eyes for a second as the light was too bright.

"Captain!"

Tank opens his eyes as they widen to their utmost. It was just like he had thought.

"Julia, Yair, Donovan, Ector." Tank looks at the four soldiers he had fought together within the two trials. They had been together for days and he had already grown accustomed to them in the castle. Even before that he was fond of the four while clearing out the cave. He smiles brightly as he looks at them. Their equipment was back to being the same as in the cave and they were all level 20 elites, the weakest amongst the elite tier.

[ The more the four soldiers fight together with the player the stronger they will become and their equipment will, of course, evolve together with them. Please take care of them as they can become a great asset to you in the future.]

"But how, how are the four of you here?"

"I don't know captain, it, it has truly been a long time." Julia looks at him with a sad smile on her face.

"Yeah, 30 years have passed since we last fought together in the castle, after the reinforcements came back then you were no longer in your quarters, not to mention that the general leading the reinforcements had no idea there was even a colonel defending the castle." Yair continues the story while looking at Tank.

"A lot of things happened after that cap, the war lasted a whole 30 years after that, we fought hundreds of battles, some we fought together, some alone. In the end, however, all of us managed to join the ranks of generals to fight in the final battle." Donovan speaks while sitting down on the ground.

"It was futile, we fought till the last man but, they were too powerful, the whole army and the kingdom were lost in the end." Ector hugs his staff as his eyes show a sad expression.

Suddenly all four of them disappear in a gold flash of light.

Ding!

[ The player is visibly confused, thanks to your high ranking in the trials the system has elevated your position and you are able to receive an explanation.]

[ Do you wish to receive the explanation? ]

"Yes." Tank says with a raspy voice.

[ The trials are not all simply imaginary events. Some are created specifically for the trial, but some were real. ]

The systems could voice reverberates through his head.

[ The two trials the player went through were real events that had happened in the past. Thanks to the player's success in doing them and the bond he had managed to form with the characters of the past the system has decided to give you a skill above your trial ranking. ]

"Past, so the cave expedition, the castle defense, the whole war on that continent, that all happened in the past, but where?"

[ The system is not able to explain that, all I am able to tell you is that it was on a different planet. ]

"I, it's enough, I don't think I will be able to take more explanations, am I done here?" Tank asks the system as he leans against the altar. Moments after finishing his words Tank was teleported out of the hall.

"You sure took your sweet time." Shadow's voice was the first thing Tank heard after coming back to the class hall. He smiles towards his friends as they all greet him. He had spent days in the trials and he was incredibly happy to see all of them again.

The trainers suddenly all rush to them as the six magic class trainers encircle Laura while fawning over her like she was some sort of a precious treasure. Laura was confused after seeing that and didn't know what to do.

"Hello there young girl, my name is Krykov, it's a real pleasure to meet you." Krykov smiles wide while speaking with a gentle voice. His tactic however didn't work as his muscular body coupled with his scarred face simply make his smile seem monstrous.

"Your powers are really something, I am certain that you can become a powerful soul mage in the future, come here so I can show you the wonders of-" Itha was cut off before she could even finish her sentence as Alera pushed her back while smiling at Laura.

"Don't listen to these guys little one, remember me, we had such a nice conversation earlier, come with me so I can show you how to use your healing magic to its fullest." Alera gives Laura a gentle smile which makes even her blush a bit. She was however a bit confused, a nice conversation, what was this woman talking about.

"You're simply confusing her Alera, hey there beautiful, want to learn how to use magic to-"Iryhtil was also cut off as all of them start pushing the other around while yelling. There was one person that was simply standing calmly at the side while glancing at Laura. He was wearing a dark-red trench coat while his head was hidden by the hat he was wearing. He lifts his head up and Laura was able to see his face.

His face was of a handsome middle-aged man. His deep-purple eyes had a bewitching aura around them as she looked straight into them. His hair fell down over his forehead while his neatly trimmed beard gave him a sharp look.

"Demon Hunter trainer, Alister." The man says as Laura's eyes widen. In a daze, she steps towards him while the others stop their bickering. Each of them had eyes full of regret as they knew of Laura's story, they knew that she was definitely going to pick Alister now.

"Can, can I really kill demons if I learn from you?' Laura asks Alister who smiles slightly at her.

"Well, you'll need to become much stronger to defeat the one you're targeting, but yes, you will be able to learn different skills that will be incredibly damaging towards demons," Alister speaks to Laura who had stars in her eyes.

"Also, I-"

"Don't worry about your ability, a lot of demon hunters are people with a similar history as you, a lot of us have demonic powers that we use in hopes of killing the ones that had given it to us." Alister looks at Laura while his irises suddenly change to a cat's while his skin suddenly grows scales on it.

Laura's eyes widen towards the sight. She could feel a familiar aura emanating from Alister, an aura similar to the demoness that had tortured her for so long.

"When you get a higher familiarity with your powers you will also be able to do things like this, of course, there is much for you to learn before that, so Laura, do you wish to become a demon hunter?" Laura nods seriously as Alister stands in front of her with his hands crossed in front of him. He smiles as he looks at his new trainee.

"Good job you guys, I knew you would do good, but to actually get S rank as the lowest score, you went above and beyond all our expectations." Eldar comes from behind Reign and Shadow as he puts his arms around their shoulders while smiling brightly. He was truly happy, how could he not be, he pretty much won the jackpot with these guys being in his territory.

"Ah, teacher, is S rank really such a good score?" Shadow turns around as he asks Eldar who looks at him with confusion.

After listening to all of their thoughts and how they all believed they could have done better he shakes his head as he tells them how rare achieving an S rank on any trial was. Their faces all lit up at the end after learning that their ranks were not simply good, but exceptional anywhere.

Especially Wolf and Reign who had the highest cumulative scores, Reign had his two weapons and S rank ability together with the unknown ability from his race that he used in the end against the copy. On the other hand, Wolf had an A rank ability that would be raised to incredible heights after getting the power-up from his mark, after all amongst them all the mark he had, came from the strongest, a Peak-tier God, an existence that had the power to rule over a big area of the universe.

They all started talking to their trainers who gave them tips about their new classes. Some of their skills were also changed after leaving the altar hall and all of them had to do some training in order to become familiar with them. Other skills however were changed a bit, those of course are going to need some practice as well.

Laura had gained a class for the first time, as her level was quite close to 20 she didn't need to familiarize herself with the class that much as she would soon be getting a class advancement.

They all exit the class hall after finishing their conversations with their trainers. Some of the trainers even came to them and gave them tips, even though they weren't their trainers. The reason for that was simply that the six were truly too talented and they felt it would be a shame if they couldn't contribute to them at all.

"Well, what do you plan on doing now Laura?" Shadow asks Laura as they all walk towards the castle. Night had already fallen and they were all pretty exhausted from the trials.

"Well, you guys don't have a healer right?" Laura asks them while looking nervously at the five guys in front of her. They all chuckle while smiling at her. She breathes out a sigh of relief and slowly makes her way to the castle with them, she was now officially part of the group.
