Rezar blinked his eyes and took a step back from the spire, he could still level up his classes and even use his skill points to increase some of his skills, but he's as tired of looking at screens already, and to be honest he has grown a little too fast for him to be able to keep up with. Sure he couldn't be compared to tough nuts like Lenore who had stats in higher tiers, but at the very least he liked to believe he was stronger than your average slave.

He was tired of looking at screens to be honest, he just wanted to go back into the confines of his cavern and sleep. He still has to come here tomorrow with those ores, so it would be nice if he got a head start, but in all honesty he was feeling extremely suffocated in the town. There were still eyes on him and his every move was being documented, after everything that's happened, he was sure now more than ever; that the people of the town, slaves and free cool alike would leave him the fuck alone.

Rezar marched towards the tunnels, Screet scrambling right behind him as he held on to the sack that carried.....Quen? Yup! Since she was a demonic mole queen something, he would call her Quen. Though why cowardly mole turned out to be a girl was quite surprising, many would expect or rather all would expect a male to be that Cowardly.

Of course no one stabs people in he back more than a woman, but that would be up for debate, who betrays the most? A man or a woman. Rezar shook his head to gather his thoughts as he went up the small hill that led to the mining tunnels, he came face to face with Lenore then.

Rezar didn't say anything, honestly he didn't think he had anything to say. This wasn't her fault, but it sucked that she was unwilling to stand up for him. But then again that was expecting too much from someone he didn't really know, she owed him nothing and he owed nothing except for his weekly quota as a slave in the mine. She looked at him for a moment and then sighed as she shook her head in exasperation.

"Rezar your weekly Quota has been increased, from now on you have to deliver 300 pieces of Stygian ore every three days, basically 900 pieces a week." She said to him with her gaze right on his.

"I'm guessing this arrangement was made by your boyfriend?" he asked her as he cocked his head to the side.

"First of all he's not my boyfriend! There are some things you have no choice over, I'm as much a slave as you are Rezar, freedom is an illusion, we're all slaves to someone or something in Elysium. I know this isn't fair, but in exchange you're allowed into the town anytime you want and free to use it's facilities as much as you want. This is the least I can do, you can still bring your ores and I'll help you sell them since slaves always sell at a loss. For what is worth I'm sorry." Lenore said to him.

"Its not worth anything, but nevertheless this wasn't your fault. You were not in a position to do the right thing, not without putting your own life on the line, so let's just leave it at that. See you around Red." Rezar said to her as he moved into the tunnel.

"Hey! My name's Lenore! Don't let me hear you calling me Red again!" she backed at him as he got on to the rail car, his bored voice echoed back as the wheels of the railcar began to squeak and move down into the tunnel.

"I know..."

Rezar woke up feeling very different, he slept through much of the day but at the very least he was refreshed. None of his undead moles were still alive as they have all been pretty much reduced to a pile of goo, there were still a bunch of them in the cave he fought them, but he knew raising them up would be a little bit more difficult. The longer a body has been dead for and the more damaged it was, the harder it would be to raise. Sure he would be able to offset that if he had a higher level of the skill (Raise Undead.)

Rezar made his way outside and gave a cursory glance to his home, it felt small to him if he had to be honest, it felt old. Maybe it was because of everything he's been through, but he felt the need to start over, this time much better and stronger. He shifted his gaze deeper into the cavern as thoughts swirled through his brain. He could see things a lot more clearly than before, in fact he could even zoom in and out and see things in more detail. This new God sight skill was really amazing, and if it was this good at level one, Rezar could not imagine what it would be like once it was maxed out.

The skill itself had no grades, there was no basic or Intermediate, just a level 1 to 10, Rezar knew the cost to raise it by even a level would be heavy, so this was just a skill he would let level up itself by more use. But then again it wasn't the only new insane skill he had gotten, the Miner skill (Power Strike) could actually be used in combat, which explains how some slaves got strong enough to be a part of Lenore's militia. Then there was the skill (Ignore Defense) it might seem simple, but from now on, no matter the armor, or magic used to defend, be it a person or a structure, Rezar would be able to damage it.

Sure the skill was also low leveled, but enough battles would see it a raising, Rezar now had enough tools to himself to survive and even be a threat to a lot of monsters and people. The greatest gain came from his magic reaching tier 4 after it got to 100, it was a lot of help to him as it meant he could fight longer than normal, and thankfully all of his skills didn't use much Magic to activate.

The new Skill Apparition use 8 magic points, Real used 6 which were the highest, and Siphon use 0, which was Understandable as that skill was able to drain magic from any living thing it touched.

Rezar felt the need to put all of these skills to the test, but before he could do so he heard he sound of a Railcar coming to a stop. He raised his head to see Priest stepping off with a massive chest being dragged behind him. He let the chest drop to the ground with a loud bang, causing an indent in the ground as he looked at Rezar's and removed his crock, showing a thin but well trained body underneath.

"Well Rezar, what are you waiting for? Take your shirt off and let's begin!"
