"Wait... Wasn't I supposed to get a Mythical affinity as a reward for completing the ascension quest?" Arnold mumbled.
He quickly checked the mission tab and there it was, written in golden letters. He was supposed to earn his first mythical affinity upon completion of the ascension quest. He was surprised to learn, he could unlock a mythical affinity right then and there, but he wasn't going to complain about it.
He didn't know what this new affinity would be but he was super excited to learn it! He was certain the light affinity would be combined in it, as it got triggered after he learned that.
As for the basic affinities, he wasn't sure. He wanted to know what he was getting into but there was no way for him to so apart from using foresight, which he had already wasted on the material box... Once again.
"Guess, there's only one way to know it." He took a sighed and continued, "Yes."

___
He had earned a mythical affinity for the first time in his life, yet it didn't seem to be much of an achievement. Moreover, he felt like he had been cheated. It obtained an affinity, but he hadn't unlocked its true potential yet. The true power of the affinity was still hidden behind the walls known as, 'phases'. Apparently, Arnold was required to feed it EXP in order to unlock new 'phases'. And it required him a million exp to unlock the next phase.
All of a sudden, the gargantuan amount of excess exp he had, didn't seem much. He couldn't even upgrade the affinity into 'phase 2' with his current reserves of EXP. He did not doubt that the abilities he gained were useful, especially in regions like the swamp. He now was practically invincible in the swamps or any type of forest for that matter.
The 'Unique' trees he once had to be conscious of during his visits in the swamps were now his prime protectors. He was fairly sure he could eradicate the remaining lizardmen from the surface of the earth if he wanted to.

'Those fckers would never dare to pull another ambush on me again.' He thought while slyly smiling, 'At least, gaining these abilities would help me while taking down Devon.'
But before he could rejoice anymore, he suddenly felt weak. It felt like his head was being torn into pieces. But when another notification popped up on his interface, he immediately stared at it. He had earned yet another title.
___
You've achieved a new title!
Name: [The First]
Effect:
• If you're threatened by the presence of another Paladin in your vicinity, the level of your class-specific skills is increased by 5 levels while the skill level of the other paladin reduces by the same amount of levels.
• If a Paladin forms an alliance with you, then they too enjoy the effects of this skill, however, their skills only increase by 2 levels.
Please note: Effects of this title are nullified in presence of a God. It doesn't matter if it is a Demigod, Lesser God, or a Higher God, as long as it is a godlike entity, you won't be able to enjoy the title's effects.
___
"Give me a break!" Arnold closed the interface in frustration. The system was giving him positive information, but it was too much information to take in at once, even for him... But it wasn't that. Something else was going on. Something much worse.
He didn't knew but learning a mythical affinity before he was supposed to, took a toll on his unprepared mind. It felt his brain could burst at any moment and the constant buzzing sound of system notifications didn't help him at all. His legs lost their strength, his body went numb all of a sudden. His consciousness was slowly fading away... Darkness was all he could see.
___

[ The Administrator ]
She used to be a bright child. She was just not fortunate enough to have a normal life. Ill and bed-ridden, she slowly lost affect and cut herself off from outer reality, as her only joy was to construct a complex fantasy world. And eventually, she met her demise. Nevertheless, her story did not end here. Who is to say that Death is our last path? For her, it was just the beginning. She had been given a second chance. Reborn as a Goddess in the very own world that she created, it was now only up to her to write her own story. ‘This time, let’s try to live normally.’ Warning: Slow Character Development, Frequent Hiatus About the releases: Do not expect regular releases. I can no longer stick to a specific release schedule, so the chapters will be released once the entire arc is done, which implies long hiatus periods between arcs. About the tags: Although there are game elements, there are absolutely not the focus of the story so this isn't exactly a LitRPG.

The White Rabbit
In the Urillian Empire, the Empress Xandra rules three-quarters of the planet Xren from her home in the capital of the Earth Continent. Both the fire and water peoples have fallen under her might after a series of wars stretching back three centuries. Earth elves, under Xandra's rule, have spread throughout the planet and established colonies, and are, by all accounts, enjoying what seems to be a prosperous and happy existence. But not everyone in Uril is happy. The holy books speak of elves as the Chosen People of Thesis, tasked with guiding and protecting the lower races. For some people, this scripture has been interpreted to designate their life as one on the lowest rungs of society. Humans have been reduced to a slave class, and serve their elven masters under Xandra's rule, kept at bay by the constant fear of the dreaded Emerald Knight, and their own perceived weakness. Humans do not lead long lives, nor do they possess the wisdom, power, or magical acumen of their elven masters. But there is hope. A group of people have banded together to fight against Xandra, her Knight, and her empire. They call themselves the "Knights of Order" united under the principle idea that Xandra's reign has brought chaos unto Xren, and they wish to restore order. These Knights are led by a man named Xaxac Brigaddon, spoken of as a legend. They say that when the moons are full, some humans transform into powerful beasts. They say that Xaxac is the most powerful warrior on Xren, that in his youth he was enslaved and forced to fight other humans to the death in a bloodsport called "cage fighting", that he could not be touched and held the world championship title for three years running until he faked his own death and escaped his master to join the resistance. They say that he has friends in high places- noblemen, pirates, and the devil himself. They say that if you can find him, he can ferry you to freedom in places where the Earth Elves fear to tread. They say that he is immune to magical attack, and his eyes shine like the silver moon. They say that he is descended from Quizlivian Brigaddon, one of the humans who helped the demon Magnus escape a god. They say that if you want to walk the Path of Order, you should follow the White Rabbit.Come and watch the transformation from human boy to Knight of Order: The life and times of Xaxac OfAgalon OfLangil Brigaddon. Content Warning: This work is based on the real experiences of human trafficing survivors. Xaxac's origins are based on true events, and they are presented realisitcally; this includes but is not limited to: isolation, gaslighting, emotional and sexual abuse, and grooming tactics. This work is meant to hold a mirror up to society; it is based on the real of experiences of people who have experienced slavery and/or abuse. It is an adult work and probably should not be read by anyone under the age of 18. If you are a survivor of human trafficing and/or abuse, your feedback is welcome, but please do not read this if you think it may trigger your trauma. I did not write this with the intention of harming anyone, but rather to provide accurate representation for a group that does not normally get it in the hopes of changing the zeitgeist. I would like to see a world where more people understand what these experiences are like, so that real survivors do not have to deal with microagressions from an ignorant public. Reader discretion is highly advised.
