World Online - Chapter 203 Tier 2 (1)

Jake stood in front of a giant Statue.

It was much bigger than the one in the rundown church that he was in two days, or rather, one week ago.

He took out opened wooden box, but didn’t dare touch what was within. He saw what had happened to Ganshin, and even if it was purified, he didn’t want to risk the pain.

“To His Divine Brilliance, I thank you for saving my life.” Jake knelt as he put the box forward.

These were just customs that Jake had to follow, as this was a god he was dealing with.

The box that he put down on the ground slowly started hovering in the air, and started approaching the statue of the god, before disappearing into nothingness.

“So its done?” Jake looked back at Ganshin and the others.

He was expecting something else to happen, but staying there, kneeling seemed to do nothing.

“It is done. The God is overjoyed by what you have offered. Go to the Adventurers guild to accept the fruits of your journey.” A priest, one foreign to Jake, who was the head priest of the church here, said.

Now, knowing how strong head priests were, Jake knew to respect this one.

Even if this priest wasn’t in the sixth tier, he could be in the fifth tier, which was still very respectable.

“That will definitely be what I am going to do next.” Jake nodded.

He looked at Ganshin, as if to ask if there was anything else to be done.

“You are too weak. You really should go and get that tier ascension. Without that, I don’t know if you can even survive.” Ganshin laughed.

Along with him, everyone else roared.

Jake shook his head and sighed. But this was the green light. He was done with his quest.

But it wouldn’t be complete without getting to the adventurers guild itself and accepting the rewards.

Jake couldn’t wait.

He was gone long enough, and it was time to claim the true results.

The second tier! Just a month into the game!

He wasn’t the first one, he knew that much!

But he sure as hell was going to be one of the strongest. This wasn’t just any normal tier ascension. This was the tier ascension of a legendary class that had an SS+ difficulty.

He ran out the door into the familiar streets of Diffast.

He knew exactly where to turn so that he could run to the adventurers guild. The tavern was easy to find, and the wooden sign even turned a little from the small gust Jake created as he rushed in.

It was full, as expected. There were always going to be NPCs here. It was a constant that could always be expected.

But to Jake’s disappointment, there was a line.

There were a few people, players, in front of him, trying to get a few quests.

And behind him, slowly, other players were waiting in line.

“What is going on? So many people actually want to accept quests? Already? Why is it this crowded?” Jake wondered.

Now that he thought about it, there were people in the tavern that weren’t actually NPCs. There were players crowding the quest board.

They seemed to be fighting over quests, in fact? But that didn’t make sense. The adventurers guild always had enough quests to quench demand.

He turned to the one behind him.

It was a party, actually.

Five people, together, taking with each other.

“If you don’t mind me asking, can I ask you something?” Jake asked.

The person who seemed to be the leader glanced at Jake.

But when he saw that he wasn’t looking at a green horn, but rather, someone in level thirty six no less, wish expression changed.

“Wait. Your name! Isn’t it… Shadow King!” The player exclaimed as he took a step back.

Jake sighed as he shook his head.

“Guess that is the problem coming to a small city. Just doing something big means that everyone gets star studded.” Jake sighed.

“I will just have to ask the bartender. She should have the answers.”

Jake knew that he couldn’t get anything meaningful out of the party the moment they started stammering.

It was better to just wait for the line to subside.

And it did move quickly. Most of the people here weren’t here to submit their quests to take the rewards. Instead, they seemed to be here to take up quests.

In a few minutes, it was finally Jake’s turn.

As he looked at the bartender, he smiled. It was the same bartender that gave him his Tier Ascension a week ago.

“Ah! Baron! It looks like you are back!” The exclaimed with her sweet voice that was too melodious to be stuck in this noisy tavern.

“The quest did take a long time. But I do hope that I didn’t cross the time penalty. I think it was one week?” Jake asked.

“The time penalty? Don’t worry about that, Baron. The moment you were recovered from the evil lands, every single god rejoiced. After all, a victory against the evil god was something we have been waiting for far too long.” She said, shaking her head.

“The quest penalty has been removed a long time ago. All you have to do is collect your reward. And the gods have ordered me to tell you this.” She said as she took a deep breath.

“It has been a long time since the Knights of Sin have disappeared from the world. And they disappeared for a purpose. Now, here we see the leader of the knights return. The others will soon return, and we hope that you will be the right leader for them.”

Jake froze for a second, trying to understand what was said.

“Well then, now that is over with, the good part. Please go inside to get your tier ascension.” The woman smiled.
