{krialer, please let me know if you want an NPC or player named after you. You are the top donater this month and now its time for your reward. You have until the 31st of march to reply to this.}
Its night now and the time till the dungeons get here is getting close. The system has been quiet and hasn't updated us about anything. The mystery's of the system is abundant, and the way its behaving is evident to that. I don't know what's in these dungeons, or what the level requirements would be. Does it adapt to the teams level or is it a hard set. Many things will be learned today and I intend to get as much information as possible. The dungeon mechanics might not have changed at all, but it would be foolish to assume otherwise. I really should find a way to clean my blood crusted gear, mom would know more than I do about things like this. I take my chest piece out of my inventory and see that its totally clean now. That's strange, why is it clean.
I look at it more closely and I can clearly tell this has been perfectly taken care of. Maybe a players inventory cleans things passively now, that's the only explanation I can come up with. I equip it on again and if feels nice and comfortable. The odor it had is now gone, speaking of odor I do stink. Its nice to know I'm not the only one that smells bad, all the players I have met or been in close proximity to all have body odor. I should go and meet up with my family for the last couple hours, we can move together when we are ready. Mom and dad are probably arguing right now about what I said earlier. They don't fight often and when they do its usually about something that's important. Hailey and I leaving after I power level them in the dungeons is more than enough for an argument. As Cera slowly makes his way back into town the parents of Cera and Hailey are having a bad spat.
I cant believe he agrees with him! I just got my baby back and now he wants to leave, also taking along my only daughter. I look at my husband in anger and disbelief, I'm losing my family right before my eyes and I cant do anything about it. Both my husband and daughter look at me with pity. My anger is boiling more and more I see this. "You aren't going anywhere Hailey... Neither is Cera... We are staying together whether you guys like it or not..." I struggle to talk to them without screaming. I feel like someone ripped out my heart, threw it on a frying pan and cooked it, then made me eat it as my family walks away in my suffering. "This is the last we are talking about this. My decision is final and everyone is going to listen to me." I try to put my foot down and stop anymore thoughts about leaving.

The face of my daughter isn't what I was expecting. She stands up from her sitting position and walks up to me. "I'm leaving with Cera whether you approve of it or not. This isn't something you have a decision in. Cera and me aren't little kids that can be told what to do anymore, I've come to realize that I don't have to listen to anything you have to say anymore. This is my life and my choices. So its your turn to respect my choices." I see the fire in her eyes and I can feel the pit in my stomach get bigger. I'm about to retaliate, but before I can she starts again. "Nothing you can say or threaten will ever make me change my mind. So instead of being mad and pissed about it, you can be excited that we all get to fight together before Cera and I leave." I feel complete and utter desperation.
I look to my husband in support, but I watch him stand up as well and walk over me. Before saying anything he wraps me in a hug. "They have to leave us eventually. I don't want to see them go just as much as you, but they aren't kids we have to take care of. They are both ready to leave the nest, and we should be supporting them. Not threatening them if they try to leave." As I hear those words my tears fall as hard as my hopes that this could be stopped. I wrap my arms around my husband and just ball my eyes out into his chest. Everything that I live for is changing, and without them I only have 1 left. "Its not like we'll never see them again. Once we get back to our continent and communication is restored we can plan a meet up to talk about what everyone has been up to. I love you Violet and I love my kids, but we need to move on and evolve as people. This is a new chapter for us." His words don't calm me down, but they don't make it any worse.
I feel someone come up on me from behind and its my slightly taller daughter. "I love you mom... I know this is hard, but Cera and I are ready. Everything dad said is true, and that will never change." I close my eyes as I listen to the stinging words. I don't want this to happen, but I have no choice. It is time to let them go and move on. Letting go of my babies is going to be the hardest thing I have ever done. Its more painful than when I gave birth to them, its a blessing that I've got to watch them grow into these amazing people. I'm sure they will make me proud and soar higher than I could have ever dreamed. As we are hugging I feel a smaller person join in on the hug, I look down and see my youngest hugging all of us from our legs. I lean down and pick him up and I kiss him all over his face. I can already see Marcus being ready to leave me sooner than I can prepare.

We hear someone shuffling at the door to our room. We all turn our heads and I see my first son, the light of my life. A parent should never play favorites, but its something that cant be avoided. Cera is everything I could ever hope for in a son, he was so easy to raise and love. He made everything about being a parent that much better. "You guys got room for one more?" He looks at me asking for permission to join us. I open my free arm that isn't holding Marcus and wave for him to come here. He walks over to me and I wrap my arm around him. My head only reaches the top of his chest just like his father. "I'm proud to call you my mom. I wouldn't be the man I am today if it wasn't for you." I start to cry again as he utters those words. I'm the luckiest mom in the whole world! As all this is happening with the Adamo family. The local main leader is discussing the information of a tier 1 level 51 player. The one leading this conversation is Sir Erikson, his spies in the park have brought him great news.
To think a tier 1 level 51 player actually exists. That can only mean one thing, he is the divine class holder. Out of all the players, the son was the first to tier up, we heard it in the announcements when it happened. From my spies the true name of the son is Slayer Zern, and from the reports of his powers and feats the name fits him. Thinking about all his accomplishments makes me wonder who he is as a person, the words and actions of such a man can teach a lot. I look at my few guild members I could find when this transfer happened. "We now know an incredible secret gentlemen. Mr. Zern's identity wont stay hidden for long. Others might have put the truth together first, so the plan as of this moment is to find Zern and recruit him to our guild. We know he is in this city and from other reports so is his mother." We cant let such an opportunity escape, if I can get Zern in my guild nothing will stop us.
My men nod to each other now that they have their orders. "Don't do anything to threaten him or reveal we know something. Just find out where he is and come back to me, I want to do all the talking myself. I want him to understand that we only have good intentions." With those final words my current best guild members head out to start searching. None of us can compete with his power, so being calm and careful about this is the only way to go. His stats must be so much higher than the rest of us. My stats are just starting to pass the 100 mark, there is a gap that no amount of people can overcome. I need him on my side, the 106,000 individual monsters he killed is more proof. Those damn creatures were relentless, but he was more so. Keeping this under wraps for as long as possible is the only option I can see, and when the majority of players learns the truth. Someone will turn him in to the church for a reward. I have to get him in my guild before then. I hate waiting, but that's the only option I have now.

Vanguard
Leon hid a grimace. He was no soldier, he chose this. At least in a way. He chose to risk his life for profit. He chose to fight in a war he had no real opinion of. Hell he even chose to join this assault. There was a bonus in it after all. The room shook.
