Adrian returned to his group and celebrated because of the successful defense of the siege. They all looked at the ranks they got and was happy. Thankfully, there was a class contribution ranking so that it was fair with support and tank classes. The four friends got first place for each of their respective class giving them the 200% experience points.
Adrian was now level 80. Levin Cloud increased his level to 81. Kabrakan and Peridot became level 84. They were steadily increased their levels thanks to the experience multiplier. Adrian is currently ranked at the summoner leaderboard at Rank 98. There was a woman staring at them as they became shy for acting like kids.
"I assume that our promise is still valid?" Cersei asked while looking at both Adrian and Marlon.
Adrian looked at his best friend and the latter nodded.
"Yes. A promise is a promise." Adrian answered.
"Excellent! Can we go now then?" Cersei said which surprised the group.
"Now? I think I cannot do it today. I have urgent matters to attend to." Adrian replied.
"I need to go back to the church as they need to hear my report." Levin Cloud answered.
Cersei frowned as promising talents are easier to recruit during early stages. She did not want other guilds to discover them. She really wanted them to be recruited or be allies as it would be beneficial to their guild. The guild members beside her are slightly unhappy with the reply because they considered it rude. Still, Cersei was not angry at the two boys so what gives them the right to speak their minds.
"Since we cannot proceed today. Why not three days later? The guild master would be there if we did that." Cersei said with a smile.
"I have no problem with that." Adrian replied.
"Second that" Levin Cloud answered.
Cersei then added the four friends as she got slightly interested with the other two but only enough to monitor them. She then waved goodbye in a flirtatious manner towards Levin Cloud. Peridot then stepped on Levin Cloud's right foot to which the latter yelled in pain.
"Let us go to the exchanging booth." Adrian beckoned to which the three agreed.
Adrian got a whopping 10,547 points due to his participation and overall contribution to the defense. It would have been bigger if they managed to kill the lich and death knight but it was not possible. The good news is that every player that participated was given a thousand points for successfully defending the fortress.
The group reached the exchanging booth and was a bit disappointed with the items up for exchange. The items were either useless to them or low in rank. Adrian though could see that he could exchange five thousand points for a random epic weapon but only once. He could also use another five thousand for a random epic armor but again only once.
Adrian did just that as there was nothing that could catch his eye. He got two epic items but the specs were not all that amazing.
Item: Enchanting Soul Gloves
Tier: Epic

Effect:
- Increases the duration of Soulbound Buffing Spells by 50%

Adrian immediately fed it to his weapon and armor. He then received a notification.
[Need four more epic weapons to increase the tier of Twilight Demi-Gauntlets.]
[Need four more epic armors to increase the tier of Asmodian Battle Uniform.]
Adrian then looked at the notification that caught his eye.
[Soulbound Kanlaon has successfully cleared all conditions to evolve.]
[A place that contains both fire and ice attributes are needed to safely proceed with the evolution.]
Adrian was both happy and disappointed. He thought he just needed to level Kanlaon up to seventy five to make him evolve. It seems that a dragon needs a compatible environment in order to safely evolve. If this applied to higher tier soulbounds then Saena also falls into that category. Adrian got a headache just thinking about it.
This notification was the reason that Adrian did not want to immediately visit the Evergreen guild. He asked the others if they were finished exchanging their contribution points. When they all nodded, he asked Levin Cloud to lead the way to the church to get their reward.
The church was just a small outpost but they successfully received the Random Epic Runestone Box. It looked like a small wooden box. All of them opened it at the same time as they had nothing better to do anyway. A small burst of light appeared that dazzled their eyes but only for a second.
Three of them got an epic runestone but one only received a common runestone. Adrian, Peridot, and Kabrakan got Epic runestones while Levin Cloud got the common one. Adrian should have been happy but he was not because the runestone does not suit him.
Item: Overheal Runestone
Tier: Epic
Type: Miscellaneous
Effect:
- Healing any target with a single target healing spell will also heal you with 10% of the amount healed. For area heals, you will receive 1% of the total amount healed.
- If you already have full health, the healing you receive will be converted to a shield that can amount to 30% of your total health.
Description: A runestone said to be made by a fearless cleric who participated in countless wars. She made this so that she could join the frontlines during battles.
Adrian then asked what their runestones are. He reviewed Kabrakan and Peridots and was glad that they could benefit from what they got. Adrian then asked his best friend if he wanted to trade with his runestone with what the latter got. Levin Cloud wanted to reject because he thought Adrian wanted to give him the Overheal Runestone since he benefits from it more.
"I think I could properly use the runestone you pulled. It is a rather special stone if you think about it." Adrian said in a confident tone.
Levin Cloud then agreed to trade stones since his best friend was adamant about it. He thanked Adrian for the great gift. Adrian just told him that it was a small favor compared to what he did for him.
Item: Transforming Runestone
Tier: Common (Growth)
Type: Miscellaneous
Effect:
- A runestone that will transform once it is exposed to the user's mana continuously.
- It can grow until epic rank but only if it transforms.
- Effects will vary depending on the type of mana it is exposed.
Description: A runestone that is said to be useless due to its complexity to transform. The more types of mana it is exposed to will greatly lengthen its transformation time.
Adrian smiled because this runestone was perfect for his race because the Daemos was only able to use Origin Magic. The runestone would transform into a perfect match with Adrian's magic but it would take time. How long it takes is another question as there is no indicator. Nevertheless, Adrian would be happy as long as it had synergy with his magic.
"Oh! I think you have better uses for this!" Adrian said as he gave items to both Kabrakan and Peridot.
When Peridot saw the thing handed to her, she was shocked as it was an epic golem recipe. When the two looked at Kabrakan's gift, Peridot was even more shocked. Kabrakan was given a race change item. Adrian sent the details to Levin Cloud first but he rejected saying it was not compatible with a priest class player. Levin Cloud then told Adrian to give it to his cousin since a tank would benefit more as a bull beastman.
Adrian agreed but told his best friend that if he ever gets something useful for him then he would immediately send it to him. Kabrakan was touched by Adrian's generosity and told him that he owes the latter a great favor. Adrian just brushed that off as they were friends anyways.
"I already told Marlon that I cannot use this recipe though." Peridot interjected.
"I think you should look at it closer." Adrian said.
