Chapter 843 A Unique Bracelet

?-----

At the end, I was reprimanded for trying to ask for rewards in this stance, when the people that wanted to know were all my professors.

And after breakfast, we moved back to the academy, I had little time to assess my gains, so I had to left that for later.

"Well done, you surprise me yet again, Blake and company." Hasan greeted us with a smirk. "You've done something that nobody could have ever thought possible for kids at your age and in the grade you are... And to think that Dungeon ended mutating into a Black Flame Mutation, the strongest of them all... You sure are something."

"It wasn't that much." I shrugged. "Well, aside from the Boss trying to mutate into an S- Rank Monster..." I pointed that out.

"T-That's... Boss Mutation?!" Ataraxia asked in shock, Hasan squinted his eyes. "T-That's incredible! B-But also dangerous! When Boss Monsters mutate, they gain intelligence and more autonomy, there have been cases where they step out of the Dungeon and unleash a Dungeon Break, bringing forth the Monsters of the Dungeon with themselves."

"If an S- Rank Monster would have escaped the Dungeon, it would had been a disaster." Erika's mother said. "Even though we would had disposed of it as soon as we could, which might have taken some minutes, in those minutes, it could had easily taken down several civilians and destroyed half the city. Their feat is nothing to scoff at, Hasan."

"I know." The director said with a slight annoyance. "It's not like I'm trying to downplay their efforts! I already rewarded that brat plentifully with the ring, but I suppose... I should give them all some nice incentive. Ataraxia, did you brought the things I commissioned you?"

"Y-Yes! Here they are, director Hasan." The elven alchemist professor quickly brought a huge wooden box from her Inventory Bag, and opened it, revealing several beautiful silver-colored bracelets. "I've made them as you commissioned them, and I used the material you brought to me... The Holy Spirit Blessing Fragments."

"Excellent." Hasan said. "Now, all of you take one of these, this is your reward for being excellent students, among all our students so far, you've been the most hardworking, talented, and amazing of them. Even Hero Dylan is beginning to feel not so special anymore with monsters like you here."

"This bracelet is?" I took one, and read its description, quickly realizing how incredibly valuable it was.

------

I can tell why some of these powerful beings such as Dylan grew so strong even when they are so young, were they feed all kinds of artifacts and items like these to hasten their growth?

If I combine this with the other Bonus to EXP I have, it means I can get over +400% bonus to EXP?! If I count the base EXP itself, then that's five times more EXP.

I quickly equipped it without even thinking about it twice, the moment I did, the silver bracelet's small, green colored jewel gave a faint glow.

FLAASH!

Some Aura of Divinity encompassed us all, giving us a "Blessing of Experience". I never knew it was possible to craft items that could give Blessings.

And that tomb of the Ancient Saintess of Holy Spirits... I had no idea there was such a thing in this world! They must have been keeping it a secret.

It is probably where the church gets their money too, seeing how valuable this small fragment is... And most likely, there could be other Blessings as well other than Experience.

"Amazing, with this we can gain Blessings of the Holy Spirits much faster." I said with a smile. "Hasan, where the hell did you get the materials for this?"

"I have my connections, I was planning on giving these to other students eventually, they are like honor badges for you, so wear them pridefully. You've already shaped yourselves to become one of our hopes... So we need to invest into all of you to grow as strong as possible, the frontlines desperately need warriors like you there." Hasan sighed. "But not yet, I assume you're going to the Elven Continent after the year ends, right?"

"Yes, that's our goal." I nodded. "Elfriedden has already issued a Summoning Decree from his Family using his authority, but we still need your authorization, director Hasan."

"Hmph. Do you really know what you're getting into? It might not be as chaotic and intense as the frontlines of the Central Continent, but the Elven Continent is still in great peril, it might be the third biggest warzone after the one in our continent... Elfriedden, would you really bring your friends there to die?" Asked Hasan.

"T-That's not...!" Elfriedden seemed frustrated and surprised by his words. "I... never intended for them to die, I trust their strength, they are... after all, my friends."

"It is also our decision to go there." I said. "He hasn't extorted us, not even offered us a reward, he's goddamned stingy bastard."

"What?! I will reward you once I can get back home!" Elfriedden complained.
