    ~~~(POV: Hailey Adamo)~~~


    ~~~(Location: The City Of Jaerey, The Kingdom Of Laasir, The Inds Of Haestar)~~~


    ~~~(Time: 3:34 PM)~~~


    All three of us have entered another ce that serves food, and we find a suitable booth that''s out of the way and will allow us to speak freely without anyone overhearing. My eyesnd on the 15-year-old across from me, and Marcus is watching her too.


    "I guess we should start with names, right?"


    She sounds nervous but not outright afraid. I could use Inspect on her to get some basic information. But it''s an unwritten rule not to use Inspect on your fellow yers.


    "That would probably be a good idea. Since you''re the outsider here, you go first."


    Before I can respond, Marcus is the one to answer her. The girl across from us straightens out her back and takes a calming breath. I don''t think she''s great at introductions if this is how long it takes her to get ready for one.


    "My name is Rianna Morday. I''m from Idaho, and I hope that all of us will work well together."


    She actually gave the ce she''s from on Earth and not Gaia. It''s safe to assume we''re all from the same Continent farther North. Marcus can''t hold hisughter back, and Rianna can''t help but blush. The innocent routine works for her.


    I''m calling it a routine cause I''m not sure if it''s genuine or not. Time will tell with Rianna. There are many opportunities for her to mess up in theing days and reveal any secrets she might have.


    "Well, it''s nice to meet you, Rianna. My name is Marcus Adamo, and I''m from California. Since you introduced where we''re from on Earth, it''s only fair we do the same."


    Way to agree to something without even talking to me about it. Marcus is more like Cera than I want him to be. At this rate, I''ll be looking to get away from my little brother just as I used to want to get away from Cera back on Earth.


    Marcus and Rianna look at me since I''m the only one that hasn''t introduced themselves yet. My extended time to do so causes Marcus to elbow me gently in the ribs.


    "My name is Hailey Adamo. I''m Marcus''s older sister, and I''m from California too."


    Now that introductions are finished. It''s time we get down to business. And that''s finding out if we really need to help Rianna or not. In truth, Marcus and I can do this on our own. He''s learned everything we need to know about PVP battles.


    "It''s really nice to meet both of you. I know my asking to join you guys is out of nowhere. But I don''t have any friends or family that wanted toe down here with me to try out for the Legendary Quest."


    So she''s one of the lucky few that could convince her family toe along with her. Most yers weren''t able to convince their parents to join them. Hence, why most are alone here.


    Cera was able to get all of us to join, and that saved all our lives. He didn''t know The Collision would happen, but I''m still d he made us. We''d all be dust now, and my life wouldn''t be this good.


    His knowledge of the future and The Ancients World has set our family as the strongest one in all of Gaia. Most people don''t know we''re family, but the few that do were able to deduce it themselves.


    "Not everyone is cut out for a Legendary Quest. And that makes me wonder if you know who we are?"


    My question is abrupt and possibly rude, but I''m not letting any threats go unchecked. Rianna doesn''t react as if she knows who we are. She even looks a little sorry.


    "Umm... If you are people who are well-known or important, I''m sorry. I''m really bad at remembering the names of famous people... You guys are famous, right? You wouldn''t ask me that unless you were."


    It''s too soon to say she''s acting all of this. I''m not letting my guard down. Marcus looks at me in confusion since I''m the one that asked the question.


    My attention turns back to Rianna, and she''s waiting for an exnation. I don''t know how an innocent-looking and acting girl has gotten so far. And that''s evidence to support she''s not innocent, and she''s acting.


    But I''ll continue to reserve a final judgment until I have enough evidence.


    "Marcus and I are Legendary ss Wielders. He''s the wielder of the Legendary Fire Mage ss Phoenix. I''m the wielder of Battlemind. A duelist Legendary ss. Most people across Gaia know who we are since Legendary ss Wielders are one in a few billion."


    Her eyes slowly widen, and her face reddens in embarrassment. Most people don''t need an exnation about who we are.


    It''s actually nice to inform someone about a change.


    "I''m so sorry! Forgive my disrespect!"


    She closes her eyes and sps her hands together as if she''s begging. Marcus lets out a small chuckle, and all I do is sigh.


    "Wait, does that mean two Legendary ss Wielders don''t know how PVP battles work?"


    I find it both funny, and concerning that her mind jumps straight to that after learning who we are. Marcus leans forward on the table and smiles. Preparing to speak.


    "Yeah, while we have extensive experience in regards to PVE and Quests. Neither of us has experience in PVP battles. It''s not something yers spend a lot of time on since it doesn''t help your level as much as PVE does."


    Marcus does a great job exining why most yers don''t waste time on PVP battles. It''s not something that has long-term gains for a yer. All it really gives you is bragging rights and a reputation if you''re famous enough.


    "Speaking of PVP battles, if we''re going to be working together. You''ll need to share what you''ve learned, Marcus. Don''t forget, Rianna here doesn''t know about them either."


    I point out the fact she doesn''t have any working knowledge about PVP battles either. As I look back to Marcus, he gives a serious expression and folds his arms.


    "I''ll get straight to the point. It''s not good news for us. PVP battles have different modes ofbat. There is leveled-outbat or true powerbat."


    This sounds like it''s going to be a pain.


    "Tell us about leveled-outbat first. If that''s what I think it is, we''ll be at a disadvantage."


    Marcus nods his head a single time as if confirming my concerns before he even starts speaking.


    "Leveled-outbat means both yers lose their level, health, mana, and tier advantages. Only the yer''s personal skill at the game is used to fight."


    That''s not good. yers that spend a lot of time ying PVP battles will want to use that as an advantage. That means no matter how strong someone is. They can fight on even ground.


    "I''m guessing that true powerbat is the opposite."


    Rianna is right in assuming that. It''s the only other option left.


    "Yeah, in true powerbat. yers fight at their full strength, and there are no mechanics to even out the odds."


    That leaves onest question to ask.


    "Do we know what will be used for the tryouts and tournament?"


    In the end, I think it''s up to the people who are fighting each other on what they want to use. However, since it''s General Daenal Roane that organized this. He might be the one deciding.


    "All that I know from what I learned is General Daenal Roane will be deciding the mode for both the tryouts and the tournament."


    That means it could be one of each.


    "This sounds like I''m not going to get far..."


    Marcus and I both look at the girl, and she''s looking down at the table in disappointment. She''s weak from what her old Guild had to say. We''ll find out if she really is when tryoutse.
