Class Awakening 2

After accessing their stats the players were told by Arya to form a line. The player's position in line was based off of their position in the Leaderboard. Leon was the first so he was in front. Once things had been settled and everyone was in position Arya began casting a spell on the crystal ball. It started glowing.

"Okay, to those who have points and are willing to use them to advance their class, know that there are two options:

1] To summon the grimoire and then upgrade it.

2] To access the higher floors so as to access a higher tiered grimoire.

You should take note that though option 2 guarantees that the grimoire is far better and even legendary such as the ones in floor 3, the grimoires are picky and the higher the floor the lower the chances of getting picked. Grimoires are classified into 6 classes which I shall list in order starting from lowest ranked class to highest ranked class, Common Uncommon Rare Unique Legendary Exceptional. Floor 1 has common to uncommon grimoires. Floor 2 has rare to unique. Floor 3 has Legendary to Exceptional grimoires."

"Leon you get to choose first.What will be your choice." After Arya finishes talking a screen appears.

*Ding*

Option 1

Accessible after selecting a grimoire.

Option 2

Floor 2 access: 500 AT

Floor 3 access : 1500AT

Please select.

Leon could not help but be happy that he could afford floor 3 and still had tokens to spare. However, his joy did not last. He had the option to access the third floor but the odds of getting a grimoire were slim to none, what was he to do. Picking floor 1 or 2 seemed like the safer bet but Leonwas never one to play anything safe. Leon cleared his thought to speak. "Um Miss Arya would it be possible for me try again if i failed?" Arya smiled snd replied, "Yes it is possible but you would need 1000AT to attempt again."

The group started buzzing, shouting out their grievances over how they would even have that many points. But Leon felt relieved by the idea of a second chance if he failed. Leon picked the second option third floor access.

"Thank you for selecting, please place your hands on the crystal ball." Arya said tentatively. Leon placed his hands on the ball and as a last ditch effort to gain something from the experience activated his unique skill Hyper-thought Processing (L) and the Akashic records exclusive skill Third Eye (R).

Upon activating the skills Leon started sensing the flow of mana from the crystall ball to the library. He could feel and see how his information was being shared with the library. He could also feel that there was no response from the grimoires on the third floor. Leon felt angered and sad but he did not give up instead he poured more of his mana into the crystall increasing the concerntration of his information and his potential but still no movement from the third floor grimoires.

Leon's efforts seemed to have all been in vain, he started feeling nauseous and dizzy from mana exhaustion but he still held on to to the crystal pumping mana into it. Arya, shocked by Leon's actions started warning him to stop or he might get crippled or worse. This didn't stop Leon but only served to strengthen his resolve, he gave one last push with a loud shout emptying his mana reserves into the crystal and just before he was about to fall to the ground from exhaustion he felt it, a stir from one of the grimoires on the third floor but the movement was too weak. This gave Leon hope, in that moment he held onto the crystall pumping any little drop of mana as it was regenerated. His veins started bursting, his eyes were bloody.

Caspian, the second in line tried to pull him off to save his life but he was repelled by Leon. Leon gave one last grunt as he poured all his blood and sweat into drawing any amount of mana from his body. He poured it into the crystall and as he did his heart stopped beating. He fell to the ground. His soul receded to the deepest depths of his body and just like a miracle a grimoire appeared ontop of Leon's body.

The grimoire was obsidian black with gold glowing cracks on the covers shaped like a huge tree surrounded by gold stars. It oppened up to reveal ethereal moonlight silver pages marred with faint golden veins. Just as it appeared it disappeared lunging itself into Leon's head. Everyone stood in awe and Arya the librarian took Leon's body and placed it aside and continued with the rest of the queue's attempts at getting a grimoire.

Unbeknownst to everyone whilst Leon was knocked out, his body started regenerating slowly and his psyche was flooded with the grimoire's contents. The class awakening ended with every player in the Arch Library being afraid to take on the 3rd floor. Caspian, Juliana and Eric were venerated as the strongest since they had awakened unique tier classes Swordmaster, Enchantress and Guardian Knight respectively. The clear message appeared.

Everyone was teleported back to the meadow. As people got settled, the players were shocked to see Leon's body lying on the ground, they had assumed that he had died, Caspian went towards his body and checked his pulse. He was alive, but how? Just as Caspian was about to stand Leon woke up heaving and gasping for air. Those who were weak hearted in the group screamed in fear and shock. One in the group shouted, "Zombie!!"

Leon who was still a bit disorientated was shocked. He felt exhausted and sore everywhere and as he tried to stand he fell only to be caught by Caspian. He helped him stand. Caspian kept on staring at his face, Leon wondered why, was there something on his face? Caspian lifted his hand to Leon's forehead and started rubbing on it as if if he was trying to remove something. Leon slapped his hand away and gave Caspian a puzzled look.

Caspian realized that he had let his curiosity get the better of him. "Sorry, its just that... Is that a birthmark?" Caspian said pointing towards Leon's forehead. Leon was confused as he replied "I'm sorry but I don't know what you're talking about, I don't have a birthmark on my forehead." Caspian replied with a nod and said, "Well there's strange marks there?" Leon was shocked and was curious to see but there wasn't a mirror or any shiny object in sight. As he was about to say more Lester appeared.
