Chapter: 183

A normal class wouldn’t be on the grading system as they wouldn’t be considered dangerous, though someone with a powerful class would have a rank of either S, A, B, C, D, E or F.

For instance, a C-class variant would start as a C1. As they got stronger they would become a C2; all the way up to a C7, which was the strongest this person could be.

Rosa, the leech queen, would have been considered an E1-class variant.

S-class variants were easily powerful people with the most dangerous classes, for example, anyone who had access to soul, law, dimension, love or micro type magic.

Normally, an E or F class person would be secretly monitored and eventually either recruited into the safety bearers with a slave contract, or killed – either way, they would disappear.

One of the biggest secrets in the kingdom was that the slave contracts were made by a soul mage who was controlled by the safety bearers.

Sullivans B3-class friend was killed by the safety bearers. Since they both served in the military, Sullivan escaped harsher punishment for knowingly hiding his friends’ variant class. He was discharged from the military as punishment, stripped of his command title and his ornamental armour was taken away. Though to keep his skills from going to waste, and as payment for his service, he was sent to the wilderness to run the adventurer guild.

Since Sullivan had a questionable relationship with the safety bearers and probably wouldn’t report anything unusual, this guild was the perfect place for Viladore to start his experiments on the cube. Losla was a quiet, safe place to start growing and more deeply researching his discovery, which of course led to the cube becoming semi-sentient.

Now, all he had to do was wait for the results.

Jay woke up with a smile to some more experience point notifications.

The amount he was getting was slowly dropping, so there were probably not many leeches left in the forest and ravine.

It was quiet today, and still a little dark as the sky was overcast with dark clouds, though they were high up in the sky so it didn’t seem like it would rain.

“Hmm, the others aren’t awake yet…” he looked around the quiet campsite.

“Guess I’ll have a look around.”

Jay rolled up his swag and put it in his inventory before heading out into the forest.

The area they chose to camp was still quite far from Losla so he knew he wouldn’t be anywhere near the silk wood dungeon. Since they were not in a rush to save anyone and had Naria with them, they were travelling a little more slowly.

They had camped on a flat part of a hill at the edge of a valley. The forest was dark and quiet, wind slowly weaving through the trees was the only thing he could hear..

Jay decided to walk down to the bottom of the valley. He guessed there would probably be some small predators out here in the forest, as his skeletons killed some various wildlife when they were protecting them the first time they came through this forest, though they could have been defenceless animals. Nevertheless, Jay didn’t see anything at the moment. It was like the forest was still asleep.

Walking down the hill there was a large green-covered tree that stood out as it was covered in moss. At the bottom of the mossy tree there were some colourful mushrooms quietly growing, but Jay decided not to touch them since they looked menacing and were probably poisonous.

“I should probably warn Naria not to touch any of these” he thought as he kept walking down.

The valley flattened out at the bottom, the dirt replaced by flat stone with a shallow cut going through the middle of the valley floor caused by years of trickling water. Small ponds and pools had formed, going up and down the valley floor as the water flowed slowly from one to another.

He walked by the small trickling stream, seeing some crayfish scuttle themselves under a rock as he approached.

Suddenly, Jay ducked as a massive shadow went right over him, thinking he was about to be attacked.
