"No thanks."

Upon hearing Aria's proposal, Wil understood that she can't intervene in the game on her own unless there's a major disturbance like crazy leveling that happened before.

So, he rejected her proposal instantly to take advantage of the situation, "It's not my fault that Leon double mutated.

So, why should I give up the advantages without receiving any benefits in return?

Moreover, Leon's attack strength is 233 million…"

*Ding. Someone texted you… Error…

Wil ignored the notification and continued, "With its high critical rate, each attack will have damage around 350 million and I don't have to lift a finger, you know.

So, if you are going to propose a deal, then provide me something that I can confidently say I gained from this deal."

As a Super AI with high intelligence, Aria quickly understood the meaning behind his words and replied while maintaining a smile, "then, how about this? After the current phase is over, you can acquire a skill with a certain Cooldown that has the same effects as this bracelet.

In addition to that, I'll unseal both of the sealed equipment, you acquired from the tomb of Seraph. Now, will you accept the deal?"

Wil suddenly changed his attitude and smiled in return, "of course. Why not… helping out the game manager is indeed a privilege."

As she raised her right hand, a document suddenly appeared out of nowhere and she handed it to him, "this is a confidentiality agreement. Once you sign on it, you are obliged to be silent about our agreement and cannot reveal the details of our deal whether it's a real or virtual world.

Leaking the details will lead you not only to pay 100 million dollars in return as compensation but your account will also be banned by Summersoft forever. Here's a friendly reminder. We can trace out the source of the leaked information whether it's real-world or this virtual-world.

Anyway, once this non-removable bracelet will be equipped, your battle companion, Leon will receive the curse and you will receive the buff. Along with it, your two equipment will be also unsealed. Are we clear?"

Wil took the agreement and read it. After confirming that it's just as she had told him, Wil signed the document, and instantly, a golden bracelet with three white gems on it appeared on his left arm.

"Oh, I forgot to mention. In case Leon will mutate again somehow with one in a million chances, the curse becomes stronger to suppress the effect. After all, the purpose is to maintain the balance. I hope you remember that" Aria reminded him after taking the document.

Wil nodded, "I know."

Aria then smiled, "okay, player Time Traveler. It's time for me to return. Good luck…"

As she disappeared, the surroundings changed and Wil found himself on Leon at the same place he disappeared.

Getting back to the material world, the first thing is to inspect Leon's stats.

Leon

Species: Winged Lion

Status: Double mutated

Grade: Legendary+

Level: 285

Hp: 26 million/1.2 Billion

Attack: 116.7 million

Defense: 23.3 million

Movement/Flying speed: 570 kmph

Crt.rate: 142.5

Crt.resist: 142.5

Just like how Aria informed him, the stats were completely downed by 50% while debuff added to the skills. Likewise, his stats boosted to twice their values as a passive buff added to his skills.

Then, he proceeded to take out the legendary grade bow from the inventory and was taken back to see the bow's grade changed to Legendary+ upon unsealing.

Seraph's Bow

Grade: High Legendary+

Level: 185

Attack: 1,515,600

Crt.rate: 92.5%

????

????

????

????

Skill: Ignores the defense of the enemy upon critical hit.

Description: It's the famed bow of Archangel Seraph that killed more than a hundred million demons in a single day. Only a successor can equip it.

"Oh, so, this is what it meant by legendary+ grade. Instead of 6 stats, it has seven. Then, what about monsters? An extra skill, maybe? Hmm… No wonder Leon has more of them. I thought it might be because it's a guardian beast. Let's see… what will mythic ring look like."

Wil certainly has a big smile as he put the bow back into inventory and took out the ring.

Seraph's Ring

Grade: Mythic

Level: 185

Attack: 185%

Hp: 370%

????

????

Description: Ring of Archangel Seraph. Only a successor can equip it.

Wil gasped as soon as he looked at the stats and almost lost his balance as he was flying on the beast.

"Damn… mythic grade is indeed out of the world. I wonder how it would feel to equip a full set mythic grade…" 

After checking out the equipment, he opened the notifications panel and read the last one. It redirected him to SnowDew on friends' tab.

SnowDew: Big Brother, I picked up two people on the way. Can they join our guild?

And she wrote a long message of how they met them and so on…

"Eh? Two people... What is this brat doing out there? I told her to look after Hyori, not to pick up stray cats and dogs…"

Time Traveler: Little Snow, why are you, so naive? Did it never occur to you that they might be spies? Isn't it a little too coincidental that you were battling level-110 mobs in the sky and they happen to be there? And it is Dreamwalkers of all people?

SnowDew: No way. They wouldn't have sacrificed four epic-grade equipment just so they could plant a spy for that. After all, it isn't guaranteed that we take them in.

Time Traveler: They are just level-100 equipment. Not much worth in my opinion. Even if I'm wrong, we still can't let them in. After all, I know everyone in real life. It's risky to let someone we don't know their identity inside of our group…

SnowDew: You don't know me, though.

Time Traveler: Well, you are an exception.

SnowDew: C'mon, Big brother. I gave them my word. Just accept them for me, please… I'll take responsibility for them.

"This girl…" Wil shook his head with a smile and sent a message.

Time Traveler: Fine. I'll change the settings in the group and will accept them as ordinary members while changing all of you to the elite while giving you permission to recruit. They won't be able to see the messages in the elite group. In the future, we can accept others too this way.

SnowDew: I knew Big brother is the best…

Time Traveler: But, they will be given two weeks of time. Consider it as a trial period. If they can't reach the minimum standards I'm going to set, they'll be kicked out without a question. Understand?

SnowDew: Yes.

Time Traveler: Oh, by the way, you are still at level-110 zone, right? I'm on my way to the capital city. Give me the coordinates. I'll meet you guys on the way.

SnowDew: 2153,178

After finishing her conversation with SnowDew, Wil, who was on his way to pick them up, started changing guild settings.

Even though there are also other positions like vice-general, Commander, Captain, and Vice-captain, since their guild has less than even 50 members, he didn't bother to appoint those roles and put everyone else as Elite.

Meanwhile, SnowDew looked at the brother and sister pair and smiled, "it's done. It seems Big Brother… *Cough* I mean, our guild leader is on his way to the capital. He said that he'll meet you guys. Let's wait here for a while."

"Eh, you mean Time Traveler?" asked the girl curiously while Rey is in deep thinking, "the current number one player in the world? If we have his protection, then Mia would be safe from them for now.

But, it is also dangerous around a powerful person like him, who doesn't have a strong guild as a backup. People who lost to him in the tournament might also develop a grudge against him.

At present, it's fine since he has legendary equipment and all but in the future as the average level of players increases, once the barriers between kingdoms opened, we would also bear the consequences…"

Just then, Hyori spoke, "guys, we have company…"

"Eh?" the three of looked around, SnowDew responded, "there's no one here though."

Hyori then pointed to the sky. As the three of them followed the direction where her finger is pointing, everyone saw a barrier is forming slowly.

"This barrier…" A frown appeared on Rey.

He suggested, "Let's get out of here before it finished. It's the famed barrier only known to the vice-generals of Dreamwalkers.

Once we are trapped, it's impossible to escape. I didn't know they would deploy even a Vice-general just for a mere Heroic grade pet egg."

Hyori shook her head, "I guess they are here to deal with her," she pointed her finger to SnowDew.

While both of them turned their head towards her, SnowDew stated, "Looks like they decide to declare war on us. I need to ask the guild leader's opinion."

A while later, SnowDew looked at everyone, "Guild leader is on his way. He told us to stay wherever we are and gave me permission to recruit the two of you. So, we are going to stay. The number one rule of our guild is to follow the Guild leader's orders without a question.

Rey, Mia, I think the egg or you two were no longer their worries. So, you can try to get out of here. I won't blame you for that.

But, if you accept the invitation and join our guild, then, you have to stay with us and face it?"

"I knew it. Troubles will follow the allies of a powerful solo player all the time. Let them face their own problems."

After thinking for a while, Rey decided to leave with his sister. But before he sounded his reply, Mia expressed, "I will regret a lot if I leave you here to die. At worst, we will lose one equipment, a pet egg, and a level, right? SnowDew I'll join the guild."

Seeing that SnowDew also becoming emotional, Rey got the urge to facepalm himself, "there's another dramatic girl aside from my sister. Maybe all elementary schoolers are like this. Sigh… It's Mia's decision. Let's just go with what she wants to do…"

While both accepted the guild's invitation from SnowDew, Rey and Mia was taken aback, "Eh? Your guild name is Scarlet?"

"Hmm, what about it?" asked Hyori.

While Rey waved his hand, "it's nothing. The name just reminded of someone we know," Mia confessed the truth, "My mom's name is also Scarlet, you know. So, we were just surprised."

"Really?" SnowDew grabbed her arms, "I guess it's fated that you meet us here."

Meanwhile, Hyori frowned upon hearing it, "they don't know the guild name of Wil? That's weird. If one clicks on his name in the rankings, anyone can find out it, right?

Even if they don't do it, as long as they open the forums, they can easily find it. I can understand Mia but Rey is elite from Dreamwalkers. It's suspicious that even he doesn't know of it. Is this really a coincidence or…"
