[Ace POV],
Looking at the unfamiliar individual in the unknown room, I asked him a question;
"I'm curious, why is there a child with you?" I asked the boy, who was barely 12 years old and looked at me with caution, as well as a girl a few years younger than him beside him.
I've never been concerned with how to start a conversation, so I usually just start one with whatever interests me about the person I'm talking with.
Similar to what I did here.
"She's my sis," the boy replied, drawing his 'sister' closer and tightening his grip on the red-colored sword in his hands as the caution in his eyes towards me grew.
I introduced myself, ignoring his actions;
"Ace Blaze," I said, and he responded by, saying;
"Chris," he said, looking at the girl beside him, who looked at me and softly said;
"Mia," she introduced herself.
Now that I think about it, I see that neither of them ever mentioned their last names.
This means two things.
They either don't want to tell or don't have one, and it's stressful to talk about things that aren't my concern.
His strength was the primary motivator behind my decision to even attempt to strike up a conversation.
The girl?
Nah, she a burden.
Anna spoke after noticing that the room had fallen silent.
"Well"
"We got orbs from the monster," she said.
I was about to take advantage of the opportunity to rest and get myself together because this place appears to be quite safe, but when I heard about the orbs, I became energized and curious.
Anna stood up and went to the corner of the room to possibly get the orb after seeing my actions that were very clear that I wanted to see the orbs without the expression on my face needing to do so since that was futile.
Taking advantage of the fact that Anna was not present, I noticed that the reason the room was dark was that the curtains in the room were drawn.
And now that I can move around and sit, I notice the soft surface I was laying on before was a bed and based on the size of the room, I'm in the master bedroom.
Before I could continue to observe, Anna approached me with something wrapped in a long and wide cloth in her hand.
As she climbed the bed and approached me, she revealed the orbs and placed them on the bed.
Perhaps because his curiosity overcame his wariness, the boy moved closer to my side, not too close, but close enough to see everything that was going on.
He still held his sword in his hand, indicating that he was wary.
He wasn't the only one who was concerned because I ignored the fact that he was a child and put my finger on the storage ring, ready to pull out the DMX-367 DOUBLE BARREL SHOTGUN at any time.
Speaking of weapons, I looked at Anna and spoke before she could.
"Where is my bow and quiver?" I questioned, and she replied saying that it was in the room.
I nodded in response and was about to turn my attention back to the orbs on the bed when someone jumped on it.
"Mia!"
"Come down now," Chris said, which she ignored and continued to stare at the orbs on the bed with curiosity in her eyes.
Looking at the bold girl who nearly cost me my life, I removed 1% of my total disapproval for her and ignored her as I returned my attention to the orbs.
Chris exhaled a sigh of relief when he realized I had ignored his 'sister.'
'Too cautious,' I thought as I counted the orbs in front of me.
The overall amount of orbs on the bed was one orange orb, one blue orb, and one white orb.
To be honest, it was too much considering I had killed 12 monsters previously and only received a white orb and now have three in front of me.
'Aren't orbs supposed to be rare, or is there a requirement for orbs to appear?' I asked a question to Anna and Chris as I looked at them.
"What was the mutated eagle's level when the primordial chronicle informed you that you had acquired the mutated eagle's primordial record?" I asked because we banded together to defeat the monster, so if I acquired the monster's primordial record, they must have as well.
When you acquire the primordial record, the primordial chronicle displays the level of the monster you killed on your panel.
However, this is based on my previous experience.
"Level 12," they both said.
Take a look at that, would you?
I'm surprised I'm still alive.
'It's good everything worked out in the end,' I thought as I began to wonder if the reason I couldn't see the monster level was because the monster was levels above me, specifically 5 levels above me.
I believe it is the latter because I was able to see the level of the Asmodeus Serpent when it was two levels above me.
I nodded at Anna and Chris as a reply, then returned my attention to the orbs.
Especially the orange-colored one.
I stared at them for a while as information surrounding them appeared in front of me.
[White orb [can get an inferior ranked item from it]],
[Blue orb [can get a normal ranked item from it]],
[Orange orb [can get a rare ranked item from it]],
Rare item?
New information.
If I were to grade the orbs I've seen so far based on their color, it would look something like this:
White > Blue > Orange > Green > Rainbow
Inferior > Normal > Rare > Epic > Random
I'm not sure if there are any other grades in between the ones I know, but Epic is definitely above rare based on the information on the first rainbow orb I saw.
Looking around at the expectant expressions on people's faces, I wondered which orb should be used first.
