Chapter 458 - Being Generous
Adrian is not that shocked upon hearing what Anastacia stated because he knew of her character. If Anastacia\'s character is not great, then Adrian would not have let them join this raid. Adrian then discussed what he should do with his friends.
Adrian asked if anyone wanted the skillbooks or if it is applicable to them. Adrian already took the Gravity Control skill book and the Small Vial of Asmodian Blood. He is the only one in the party that could utilize it, but he still asked Levin Cloud if he wanted the Small Vial of Asmodian Blood.
Levin Cloud refused the Small Vial of Asmodian Blood, but he did get the Overflowing Vitality Skillbook. He needed to have a great counter if he gets cornered by high damaging monsters or individuals. Everyone did not raise a fuss when Levin Cloud took the skill book as he deserved it.
"I think Creepysoo or Cersei should roll for the Pain Splitter skill book as they are the only ones in the party that could use it." Adrian suggested and everyone also agreed.
The Pain Splitter skill book is obtained by Cersei after a close roll of 51 and 49 with her being the former. Cersei jumped for joy upon receiving the skill book and Creepysoo accepted the results since they rolled for it.
"I would like to have the Unyielding Ferocity skill book if you guys do not mind." Kabrakan stated his desire.
"I believe that if anyone of us is deserving of a skill book then that would be you." Anastacia commented and the others nodded in unison. Kabrakan did a great job in being the party\'s shield. Even the other tanks could not help but agree.
"Thank you!" Kabrakan replied.
"Should we roll for the remaining skill books? If we do then I would not participate because I already got what I wanted." Adrian asked.
"That is fine with us." The one\'s left exclaimed.
Adrian did not want to be greedy with the Night King skill book because his sister already has that skill in her arsenal. She even has a better version of it called Bloody Night Queen that would increase in strength with her rank up.
"If we are rolling for the skill books then count me out. I already received mine and do not want another one." Levin Cloud stated as he took his name off the roll list.
"I would also exclude myself from the list as I already got a skill book as well." Cersei stated as she also removed her name from the roll list.
"I shall do the same as well. One Legendary skill book is enough for me. It was a team effort, and I would be too greedy to claim one more." Kabrakan stated as he took out his name from the roll list as well.
The remaining members rolled for the Omnidirectional Rock Needle Assault and Night King skill book. The Omnidirectional Rock Needle Assault skill book landed on the hands of Alder while the Night King skill book is received by Mariposa.
Alder then decided to ask Peridot for a trade as he needed to go to the East Continent for a mission. Alder knew that a Ryujib\'s status in the eastern continent is akin to a king. He could finally gain access to Infernofrost Ridge if he asks Peridot to take her there.
Peridot agreed with the trade as she has great use for this skill book. If she masters the earth element, then turning her scales into rocks would become easy. She herself could use this skill just by utilizing the earth shard which is one of the gems that is a part of her weapon. Levin Cloud suddenly smelled danger and became defensive of Peridot.
"Since Alder thought of trade, why don\'t we trade as well, Adrian? I noticed that your wolf soulbound Sirius could utilize this skill book. I would like your services in exchange for the skill book. What do you say?" Mariposa asked as she too has a mission which needs to go somewhere.
"By services, you mean going to a different world and helping you on that quest? If you want, I could just teleport you there free of charge." Adrian offered but Mariposa rejected.
"Not only do you need to help me go there but I would need your help in subduing a certain monster. I am only limited in bringing one party member for that quest. If us two summoners join forces, then most of the threats there would become rather easy. Also, I do not like owing people which is why I want a trade." Mariposa stated.
"If that is what you want then I accept. Just be sure to tell me this expedition we are taking part of, but we still need to stop the dark god first." Adrian agreed and received the Night King skill book.
"I also think the same thing and do not worry as my mission does not have a time limit.
"Cristobal\'s Journal is more likely a grimoire. It holds all his spells and knowledge from being a warlock. I am fairly sure that the material in this journal will make anyone mage drool." Adrian stated as he showed the animal skin covered book.
"If that is the result of being the best warlock then count me out. Even if that journal is valuable, the evil deeds written there to become that powerful will not make me a great person." Creepysoo commented.
"I think it is best that you hold it, Adrian. It was your quest that led us here anyway. We decided to let you keep the journal but in exchange of information about the dark gods written on it." Mariposa stated to which Anastacia acknowledged.
"Do not worry as our biggest problem right now is that dark god. If we do not kill or send it back to its dimension, then we would be the one in big trouble. It would probably terraform the entire central continent if we do not stop it. Even the barrier erected by the gods could only hold it by so much." Adrian stated as he started to read the grimoire.
