Dungeon of Pride, Laplace

Chapter 79: Undercurrents (3)

Listening to their guild master blabber on, all four of them realized that the situation was not looking good. A man wearing a gaudy robe, leather armour and a wooden staff with a gem inlaid on top, couldn’t help but ask “Guild master what is with these two names, why are you so afrai… I mean why are you so concerned about them?”.

The man had a crafty looking face and wrinkles around his forehead. He was thinly built and his posture was a little crooked. Realising that he had made a mistake choosing his words, a droplet of sweat trickled down his face.

Boris looked at the man who asked the question, he was one of the Seven Swords, Sable the [Crimson Scorching Sage].

Morgress glared at Sable with bloodlust flooding out of his body, which put a formless pressure on all the four members present as he said “Mind your words, I’m not afraid of anyone”. One could imagine the kind of presence a level 500 [Grand Lightning Warrior] had.

“Forgive me guild master, this foolish one had spoken too rashly” Sable apologised, his robe drenched with sweat. The pressure earlier was targeted towards him and bore down on him like a mountain.

The invisible pressure disappeared after a while and Morgress added “These two are very troublesome people. As you all might know that the Sea God’s Trident is one of the top five guilds in the kingdom of Ellesmere. Their top-level officers are called the three tridents…” he paused here for a while before continuing “Boris are you sure that their names are Godwin and Raven? Because they are the names of two of the three tridents”.

Boris gulped, his face extremely serious after he heard the question from Morgress, before replying “Yes, guild master these are precisely the names my subordinate had reported me”.

Morgress made a complicated face while clenching his hands into fists “I see, then that means out of the three, two of them are present at the city of Mountmend at this moment. But for what reason?”

Listening till here, all four of them stood up from their seats as they couldn’t believe what they just heard. Shock, anxiety, and even fear could be seen flashing intermittently on their faces.

The name Sea God’s Trident was already quite impactful but it didn’t have the power to cower them. After all, the main guild of the Sea God’s Trident is located in the capital city of Ellesmere. there was no way their influence would reach here.

Not to mention that there was no other guild stronger than their Seven Sword’s guild in the neighbouring cities of this remote corner. However, it was a different thing altogether when the three words ‘The Three Tridents’ came forward.

Just those three words were enough to keep them on edge, their face distorted with distress.

Watching the reactions of the Four of the Seven Swords, he didn’t feel like he could blame them. After all, he had the exact same reaction when he heard these two names come up in the report. them reacting like that was within his expectation.

Raven one of the three tridents was rumoured to have broken through the 500 level barrier and have entered the renowned [Phantom Night Assasin] Class. Morgress himself was stuck on the level 500 barrier unable to go any higher for more than five years.

In these past years, he had come to a realisation that this was his limit and no matter how hard he tried, he wouldn’t be able to break past the restraints placed on him by his bloodline.

Even Raven’s class the [Phantom Night Assassin] was a fabled class of the legends, it is said that when an assassin reaches the night assassin class and gain complete mastery over their skills and weapon, they could have a glimpse of reaching an even higher class and that was the Phantom Night Assasin class.

What is a class? Just like how demon have their rank-ups, monsters have evolution. Similarly, humans have their class change. When a human increases his level and decides on the path he wants to walk or is suitable in, he/she receives a class based on their abilities.

As they gain more levels and accumulate and refine their skills, they have a chance to increase their class to a higher and stronger one. Similar to how a demon’s stat and skill increases with their rank-up, class change does the same to humans.

As with all the beings living on Althaea, those who have inherited the bloodline of their ancestor strongly, have a higher chance of getting stronger, and those who did not, get stuck after reaching certain levels. This was the unwritten rule of the world.

The same applies to humans, those with a pure bloodline can attain powerful classes and increase their levels reaching a realm unimaginable to most people. And those who do not have a pure bloodline, get stuck in the same class after reaching certain levels. Just like how Morgress had reached the limits of his prowess.

Raven attaining a class that was in a completely different realm was a shocking event that shook many big names in the capital city of Ellesmere. The news quickly travelled to the other region of the kingdom and reached their city of Morgress.

Attaining a class that was inaccessible to many was a big event for the Sea God’s Trident, after all, each class change drastically increases the limit and stats that one could reach. At the same time, a genius rising in their guild would make them even stronger than their competitors. Raven’s talent was so high that he was quickly elevated to the ranks of the Three Tridents in his guild.

The presence of Raven in Mountmend was a big reason which made Morgress worried, but what made him alarm was the other name that came up in the report.

Godwin, a man of a much higher calibre. The guild master of the Sea God immediately recognized the hidden talent within Godwin early on when he was just a child and hurriedly recruited and trained him personally.

It was told that after only a few years of joining the guild, he became one of its powerhouses and later went on to become the vice guild master of the guild. Subsequently, after becoming the vice guild master, he raised the status of his guild to become one of the top five guilds in the entire kingdom of Ellesmere.
