Chapter 625 The Peak Of The Initiate Rank [Part 1]
Chapter 625 The Peak Of The Initiate Rank [Part 1]
After accepting Garret's pledge, and asking the Orc Chieftain to give the former Great General's Family, and Retainers temporary lodgings, Lux hurried to his own temporary residence and locked the door in his room.
He then opened his Soul Book to double check the changes in his stats, as well as the rewards he received from the Hidden Missions that he had unknowingly cleared.

"Hahaha… this is insane," Lux could only chuckle in disbelief after seeing the information in his Soul Book.
The Half-Elf had already anticipated the possibility that Garret might become a member of his Covenant. But, he never expected that he would gain additional rewards now that the war with the Haca Dynasty was over.
The bonus titles, Honorary Knight of the Wanid Kingdom, Castle Destroyers, and Jolly Cooperation were all very useful in their own right.
As an Honorary Knight of the Wanid Kingdom, Lux would be able to traverse the lands, and visit the other Pillars without feeling anxious that they would be attacked on their journey.
Unlike other Kingdoms, there were very few Nobles in the Wanid Kingdom.
In the Blackrock Clan, only Lady Avyanna, Barca, and Flamma could be considered Nobles. Although the Four Orc Warlords played an important role to maintain the stability of their territories, the Wanid Kingdom only recognized Lady Avyanna's family as the Nobles governing the Blackrock Territory.
For the Dryads, the only one that held a Noble's title was the Dryad Queen, Cornelia.
Simply put, only the Heads of the Pillars and their immediate family were classified as nobles. This was how few Nobles were in the Wanid Kingdom, and why many upstart Factions, and Families, wished to make their names known as well.
Only by making their names known would they be recognized by the Pillars as Honorary Nobles, and granted considerable influence inside the Kingdom of the Spirits.
Just as Lux was about to close his Soul Book, he heard a loud knocking on the door, followed by an excited call from his Master, Randolph.
"Lux! I got this kind of notification informing me that I finished some kind of quest called, Saving The Blackrock Clan," Randolph shouted as he knocked on the door. "I received gold coins, as well as this Reputation Points thing. My strength has also increased exponentially. Also, I feel more handsome than I was an hour ago. Did you also receive this notification?"
Lux opened the door and looked at his Master with an amused expression on his face.
Aside from the phrase "I feel more handsome than I was an hour ago", everything that Randolph had said earlier proved that his Guild Members who were present in the battle received the rewards as well.
"Now that I've taken a good look at you, Master, you do look more handsome than when I saw you earlier," Lux replied with a smile. "It seems that you're getting your second wind in life."
"Hahaha! Stop praising me, my boy," Randolph laughed while resting his hands on his waist. "I know that I was born handsome. You are almost as handsome as me when I was your age."
Lux couldn't help but shake his head helplessly at his Master's over exaggeration. It seemed that the stats of Randolph's Shameless Attribute had risen as well.
'Sid, did you also receive a boost in experience points?' Lux asked his loyal Assassin, who had stayed in the Blackrock Clan to protect the Dwarves, especially his sisters, from harm.
'Yes, Master,' Sid replied. 'I have now reached the limit of the Initiate Rank. All I need to do is visit a Temple in order to become a full-fledged Ranker.'
'Congratulations. Now, you're one step closer to becoming more powerful.'
'All that I have is because of you, Master. I will use this newfound strength to serve you better.'
Lux was very satisfied with Sid's answer.
Unlike Scarlet, who was only loyal to him because she had no choice, Sid was completely loyal to him. Because of this, he gave the Dwarf Assassin preferential treatment, allowing him to gain experience points by accompanying him on his quests.
"By the way, Flamma came to find us earlier and said that we can visit the Ancestral Grounds of the Blackrock Clan tomorrow." Randolph's face became solemn after saying these words. "He said that we have gained the chance to speak with the Transcendent Twin Flames. I just hope that nothing goes wrong tomorrow."
Randolph's voice held a tinge of anxiety, which was perfectly normal.
For him, the Transcendent Flames was the ultimate requirement in order for him to become a Grandmaster Blacksmith. They were the Blacksmiths that were able to craft Legendary Equipment with the help of the elusive Transcendent Flames that only a handful possessed.
