Chapter 7: "Leveling the Gacha Class and Summoning NPC"
3 weeks passed as the month was almost reaching July 2024, and all the students were now preparing for the Prelim Examination that will hold an individual or group competition with rewards that made all the students work hard and do their best in the 2nd week of July for the starting of the examination. During the 3 weeks, Rowan used his active skill the "Fate's Pull" to summon NPC characters.
He unlocks not only NPC characters but also other uses of the new features along the way.

Rowan: "What? One-Time Use???"
Elira: "What's wrong, Darling?"
Rowan: "Oh... it's nothing..."
Elira: "Really?"
Rowan: "Yes. I just unlocked another Gacha Class Job feature that gives me a one-time use artifacts."
Elira: "Isn't that good? Artifacts are expensive despite how small or one-time use they are."
Rowan: "Really?"
Elira: "Yep... Wait, you don't know how much it costs to buy those things, do you?"
Elira using the Holographic MagiTech showed Rowan the cost of beginner-level artifacts that made his jaw drop. Elira is now wondering if her lover has quite a cheat level gacha class job to have, well she doesn't care anymore since he told her that class job is a Mythic Class tier, so maybe the class job functions that way.
Rowan: [Thinking] "Hmm... What shall I do about this one-time use artifacts."
Elira: "How about exchanging it for merits, specifically to someone."
Rowan: "Exchange for Merits... Hm? Specifically to someone? Who?"
Elira: "One of the Imperial Family Members, 2nd Princess Elowen Solas Brightwind."
Rowan: "Why her, Elira?"
Elira: "Hmm... So, you must haven't heard about her class job?"
Rowan: "Sorry, I don't. And I do not have a strong information network as you, Elira."
Elira: "I know, I apologize. She is a Triple-Class Type, meaning she has three-class jobs.
Rowan: "Wow."
Elira: "Her three class jobs primarily support large groups. She becomes quite vulnerable and disadvantaged when using one. One of her active skills prevents her from moving when activated, which I think you understand."
Rowan: "Oh, right. That type of active skill is disrupted by movement, which cancels the skill and delays its cooldown. Is she searching for artifacts for defensive purposes?"
Elira: "Yes. Do you need help, Darling?"
Rowan: "Sure, thanks Elira."
Elira: "Then I want my reward." [Smiles]
Rowan: "Wait, not now Elira! No! Stop! Noooo!!!" [I think you know what happened]

----------
Rowan earns 100 merits per defensive artifact when he activates his Artifacts Whisper. While receiving that amount, he gives half the merits to Elira with another "that" kind of reward. He was also surprised about the 2nd Princess Triple-Class Job. She was a Tactician, Strategist, and Commander. She was born to command the people or a group of small or large numbers of people.
During those activations, there were 12 days from 12 Fate's Pull, 12 Resource Surge, and 9 Artifact Whisper. With the total of those results, he received:
----------
