Chapter 13
ShadowBlade's strength was failing. His arms trembled, his vision dimmed. Khetar's sword pressed down, forcing ShadowBlade to his knees. He could feel the cold edge of Khetar's blade against his throat and knew that this was the end. But no—he wouldn't give up. He couldn't give up. Not now. Not ever.
As he struggled to breathe, memories of his mother flooded his mind. Her kind smile, her gentle voice, the way she had always believed in him. She had sacrificed so much for him, and he had promised her he would become someone she could be proud of. To give up now would be to betray everything she had done for him.
Khetar's eyes narrowed, sensing the moment of vulnerability. "It's over, ShadowBlade. Accept your fate."
ShadowBlade's grip tightened on his swords, his resolve hardening. "No," he rasped, finding his voice. "I won't give up. Not for you, not for anyone. My mother believed in me. She gave everything she had to see me succeed. To honor her memory, to make her proud, I will fight. I will rise. For her."
With a surge of strength, ShadowBlade pushed back against Khetar's blade. His muscles screamed in protest, but he forced himself to stand, to face his opponent one last time. "For my mother!" he shouted, his voice echoing across the arena. "Death Cross!"

Level Up!
In an explosive burst of energy, ShadowBlade crossed his blades and charged at Khetar. His movements were swift and precise, driven by sheer determination. Khetar's eyes widened in surprise as ShadowBlade's swords cut through the air, the force of the attack too powerful to withstand. Khetar tried to block, but ShadowBlade's resolve was unbreakable.
The clash of steel was deafening. ShadowBlade's blades cut through Khetar's defenses, striking true. Khetar stumbled back, his sword slipping from his grasp. He looked at ShadowBlade, his eyes filled with a mix of surprise and acknowledgment.
"You... defeated me," Khetar said, a faint smile on his lips. "You are truly worthy."
With that, Khetar fell to the ground, defeated. ShadowBlade stood over him, breathing heavily, his body on the brink of collapse. But he had done it. He had won.
As the dust settled, ShadowBlade took a moment to catch his breath. He looked around the arena, spotting the glimmer of loot scattered across the ground. He knelt down, gathering the items: a set of enchanted armor, a rare sword, and several potions. Each item glowed with a faint light, a testament to their power.
Loot Obtained:
- Khetar's MartialSuit
- Khetar's MartialGloves
- Khetar's MartialBoots
- Khetar's HeadPiece
He placed everything into his space bag, feeling a sense of satisfaction wash over him. Despite the grueling battle, he had prevailed. Now, it was time to return to Marak and prove that he had completed the quest.
As ShadowBlade made his way back to Marak's outpost, his body ached with every step. The journey was long and arduous, but his determination kept him moving forward. When he finally arrived, Marak was waiting, a look of shock on his face.
"You... you actually did it," Marak stammered, his eyes wide. "You defeated Khetar."
ShadowBlade nodded, dropping the loot at Marak's feet. "Quest completed," he said, his voice steady despite his exhaustion.
Marak examined the items, then looked at ShadowBlade with newfound respect. "I must admit, I didn't think you could do it. This quest was meant to test your limits. Few have even attempted it, and fewer still have returned."
A notification appeared in front of ShadowBlade:
**Quest Completed!**
**Rewards:**
- 500 Experience
- 100 Gold
- Skill Book: Fire Blade
- Class Upgrade to Force Blader
ShadowBlade's brow furrowed as he read the rewards. "500 experience and 100 gold? For defeating Khetar? This quest was incredibly difficult. These rewards don't seem to match the effort required."
Marak chuckled, shaking his head. "You're right, the gold and experience are modest. But the real reward is the class upgrade to Force Blader. It's a rare and powerful class that few can attain."
ShadowBlade's frustration ebbed as he considered Marak's words. "Force Blader, huh? What's so special about it?"
Marak's eyes twinkled with excitement. "The Force Blader is a unique class, a blend of swordsmanship and magic. It was developed by the sages during the Pelis Exodus. Force Bladers are masters of combining physical and magical attacks, creating devastating combat techniques known as Magic Sword Skills. They can destabilize enemies, combine spells with their sword strikes, and even open the gates of hell to cast their foes into endless damnation, and because considering your level this is impossible quest to complete. So by the power of Force I will grant you then the highest reward possible."
A new notification appeared:
**Ding!**
Due to completing an impossible quest your reward has been upgraded.
**Do you want to upgrade your class to the Legendary Force Blader?**
ShadowBlade didn't hesitate. "Yes."
A rush of power surged through him as the system upgraded his class. His stats increased dramatically, his strength and agility nearly doubling. His intelligence, once a secondary attribute, now rivaled his physical prowess. He felt a newfound balance between his abilities, a perfect harmony of strength and magic.
**New Skills Obtained:**
- Guard Break
- Enervation
- Fire Blade
- Ice Blade
ShadowBlade marveled at the new skills displayed on his system screen. Each one promised incredible potential, new ways to dominate the battlefield. He felt a deep sense of satisfaction, knowing that all his hard work had paid off.
Global Announce!
A Legendary Class appeared on the continent of Pelis Desert!
Marak clapped him on the shoulder, grinning. "Congratulations, Force Blader. You've earned it."
ShadowBlade couldn't help but smile. "Thank you, Marak. I couldn't have done it without your guidance."
As he logged out of the system, ShadowBlade felt a profound sense of achievement.
