Family Time (Edited)

I run up to my room and open the pod wondering if the black goo is still there. I close my eyes after having it open. Then when I do look, I see that it's clean with no signs left behind that it was even there.

Sighing in relief I get ready to go inside and hop in.

"Link Start!"

As the familiar virtual desk pops up I immediately start up Astrologia. As I spawn in I see a small gift box appear in front of me.

I grab it and it explodes into confetti, in its place lies a slightly glowing silver ring.

I inspect it to see what I can.

Lovers ring α

Rarity: Legendary

One of two rings that belongs to a pair eternal. Lovers who swore eternal devotion and will accompany each other through anything.

These rings were the fist crafted by the Goddess of Love Aphrodite.

-Immune to Poisons and Curses

-When the two spouses are in the same party they gain a double exp buff.

-???? ???? ??? ????????? ?? ??? ????? ????? ??????? ?????.

Bound Item

After I finished reading that the only thing keeping me from putting it on is the fact I won't be able to remove it and the unknown effect.

'Oh well, better get this over with.'

As soon as I put it on I get an immediate reaction to where Steph is. I follow my 'instincts' and keep walking till I spot another church. Outside you can see small waterfalls on both sides of the entrance flowing into what looks like a river surrounding the property.

Then I make my way inside and I feel a nice cooling sensation while looking around. Along the walls there are little streams of water moving about with no containers or small aqueducts, as if another force is guiding it. Then I see a statue for a Goddess of whom I have no clue as to who they are and Steph kneeling in front as if she's praying.

"This is the Goddess of Water and Life Amphitrite."

I look to my side and see Aloria.

"How did you?"

"I went to look for you and saw you walking this way."

I see her face look full of disappointment and then immediately switch back to her cheery self.

'What was that?'

Ignoring what I saw I decided that while I'm waiting for Steph I'll go over my new skills.

Dragon Heart:

Due to evolving you gain the heart of a dragon! You gained an increase in mana, affinity with your element, and a connection with spirits.

-Gain an increase in mana every time you cross a threshold in bloodline purity.

-Gained a chance to contract with a spirit.

-The element you have an affinity to has been further refined.

Dragon Scales

As you have taken the first steps to becoming a dragon you also have gained the scales of one. As you have just started on this path the scales will appear to save you from a fatal attack.

Cooldown: 7 Days

Draconic Aura

As a member of the dragon race you exude an air of nobility and those that wish harm unto you experience fear instead. (Only works on those lower leveled than you and up to 10 levels higher.)

Loving my skills I smile and close my status board. I look at Steph and see a Cyan glow surrounding her figure slowly dimming as if whatever she's doing is ending.

Once the glow vanishes she stands up beaming.

"You ok Steph?"

"Yeah, Goddess Amphitrite just wants me to return when I hit level 10. She says it's to help me awaken."

After talking for a bit she notices Aloria.

"Who is she?"

'Why do I feel scared to answer?!'

"My name is Aloria, Priestess to Goddess of Light Luxuria."

She mumbled something else but I didn't hear it. It seems like Steph did though as she starts to look pissed. She walks up to Aloria and looks like she wants to fight.

I stop her before anything can happen.

"Whoa there, I have no clue as to why you are mad but aren't we supposed to meet up with Madeline and Father?"

She cools down and grabs my hand dragging me off to god knows where, which I hope would be where they are.

As I'm getting dragged Aloria is laughing at me and speaks.

"Also Luxuria told me to let you know, since you didn't see it the rewards for completing your quest are in your inventory."

I ask Steph to stop real quick as I open my inventory and see a pill sitting there next to a Bronze Chest. I tap on the pill to see its info but I get a different panel instead.

-*Quest Initiated!*-

Final Stage of Evolution!

After completing your first quest with such an exemplary result, The Goddess of Light Luxuria has given you a chance. The chance to Evolve further into what you are meant to be, a Divine Dragon of Light!

This quest is part of a chain, there will be more than one to complete.

For this quest you need a strong body to even withstand the pain and changes! ~ From Yours Truly

'What? There is more than one? Also I need to hit level 100?!'

I calm myself down and make continue with Steph and Aloria to the rest of my family. As I see them I run up to see how they are doing so far while Steph and Aloria stay behind.

"I see you've chosen what path to follow."

I look at dad and see he chose to be something like a Warrior. Madeline chose something along the lines of an Archer.

"Yeah we came across some unique quests that promise some hidden class of what we chose."

"Seriously? That's some insane luck, I I didn't know any better it's like someone or something is helping you guys."

As we keep talking about this Madeline speaks up.

"How do you feel about the marriage that we imposed on you two?"

'Seriously now? I was trying to ignore it till I got more comfortable.'

"It's not like I hate it, I just feel like it happened to fast and I don't know how she feels about it."

Madeline smirks as if she knows something I don't and walks of to her daughter.

My dad pats my shoulder and laughs as I realize that this is my life now and I have to live with it.

'It's not like I'm against it or anything. Was what Drake said true?'

Madeline and the others come back and make a plan on how to efficiently get them all to level 10. Aloria is just going to be on standby to watch as we level.

I take them all to the forest by the plains I leveled at before. As we arrive they all get nervous.

"Aren't the monsters level 15 or higher?"

I laugh and nodded my head.

"They are but since they have miasma in their bodies which is what's causing them to go berserk I can use my element to kill em quicker."

When they ask how I summon a Mana Arrow and add my Light elements to it. While I was at it I decided to make it spin fast to add some penetration power.

*Ding*

*Learned a spell without a spell book!*

*Spinning Light Arrow Spell Gained!*

'Nice.'

Then I throw it at the nearest monster, a Goblin. It kills it instantly and runs right through it hitting another before dissipating.

*Killed Goblin x2*

*Gained Bonus Exp due to level difference*

*Exp Doubled from Lovers Ring α*

*Gained 21% Exp*

*Gained 27 Copper*

I smile after my show and they get excited. I then invite them all to my party and we get to hunting.

1 Hour 30 Minutes Later…

They hit level 10 fast, a little over halfway through Steph left to go awaken and gain her class. Aloria left to take care of Church matters. Then finally Madeline and my Father hit level 10. Hell I even managed to hit 21 with the double exp perk helping me.

"Kayde, we are going toge our classes. We will meet up at the town square right?"

I say yes and then they leave while I check my spoils.

I gained anything but equipment and potions…

Here's what I got:

- 32 Silver

- 56 Goblin Teeth

- 43 Ruined Flame Boar Hide

- 27 Rank E Magic Stones

'Despite all the monsters I killed this is all I got, I should've gained a fair bit more.'

Sighing I make my way to a shop and sell my miscellaneous items. After that I go wait at the town square to meet up with my family.

As I'm waiting I then see someone who I've never wanted to see again, Drake Evermoore.

"Hey Kayde! How is your sister?"

"What do you want?"

At that mention my heartbeat speeds up and my vision gets hazy as I get royally fucking pissed.

"I just want to speak to her because, she is going to be mine someday. Who wouldn't want to touch their new toy?"

'He's the same, it seems he's always been this demented.'

"You don't need to see her. Now leave me alone!"

He walks up to me and grabs my shoulder.

"Don't be such a co**block and tell me what I want to know. My friends and I are dying to know-"

As the game system deemed him a threat I punch him in the jaw sending him flying as I scream out like a certain spartan god.

*High Stress Levels Detected*

*User Kayde's Heartbeat is Erratic*

*Consciousness Failing!*

*Emergency Logout Initiated!*

As I'm logged out the pod opens up and I jump out world war hu** angry. I run out to my family's back yard to get some fresh air, maybe calm down and instead punch the stone wall by our backyard pond.

After I did that I noticed my hand didn't hurt and I punched a large hole in it. I started some breathing exercises trying to calm down. I pull out my phone to make a call, but not before I see my eyes. Instead of my light brown I see a gold slitted eye staring right back at me.

Then I pass out coming down from the shock, anger, and one hell of an adrenaline rush after what happened.
