Re-Awakening: I Ascend with a Legendary class - Chapter 197

Chapter 197: Auction Items, Whispering Knowledge
Hearing Admiral’s words, Almond nodded, “Alright, let me count and make a list. I’m also adding all Epic-rank items we’ve got from rewards, not only Legendary ones.”

‘Let’s see, the rewards we got so far are…’

Epic item boxes: 12

Epic Accessory: 1

Epic Weapon: 1

Epic Armor: 1

Epic Item: 1

Epic Set: 1 (Low-tier)

Epic Set: 2 (Mid-tier)

Epic Set: 4 (High-tier)

Legendary item boxes: 5

Legendary weapon: 2

Legendary armor: 1

Legendary set: 5 (Low-tier)

Legendary set: 3 (Mid-tier)

Legendary set: 2 (High-tier)

‘I sacrificed ten Epic items and five legendary, and I am not giving any of my spirit items for now, so…’

“Alright, I’ve finished counting. So, I have a total of 6 individual Epic rank items, one Low-tier Epic set, two Mid-tier Epic sets, and four High-tier Epic sets.”

“What? So many sets?” Admiral Rudra raised an eyebrow. “And there are four high-tier Epic sets…good. What’s next?”

Almond grinned and continued, “Three Legendary items, you can check the rank yourself once I give them to you. And….five low-tier Legendary sets-”

“What?! Five legendary sets?” Admiral Rudra’s eyes widened.

“Chill, there’s more. Three mid-tier Legendary sets and two High-tier Legendary sets.”

“Already have Mid-tier and high-tier of legendary sets…” Admiral Rudra was fully dumbfounded. He wasn’t expecting that at all!

“There are more things aside from equipment,” Almond smiled. “There’s one skill stone which can instantly teach one the skill contained within it to the user. The skill stone has an SS-rank skill called Scorpian Terror Sting.”

Almond had gotten this skill stone from the Random Mystery box he opened, which everyone got when he opened Party Chest.

“Crap…the rewards you are getting from that Heroic Challenge are crazy,” Admiral Rudra’s eyes twitched. “And this is nothing based on what you showed me from your MVP chest. Alright, I’m joining the 11th Floor’s Heroic Challenge. I’m sure you’ll catch up before we clear it.”

“Of course,” Almond grinned. “I can’t wait till I catch up and we fight the boss together. That’s going to be fun.”

“Mhm, now putting that aside, what you are giving for this auction is the biggest treasure trove our world has seen so far.”

“Wait, there’s more.”

Admiral Rudra’s lips twitched slightly.

“Ah, no, this is not related to auction,” Almond chuckled. “I have a magic beast’s egg, so I want to hatch it. I wonder if you know any professional high-level tamer who can do that? By the way, this beast egg has an Epic-rank Bloodline.”

Almond showed the egg’s status to Admiral Rudra.

[Winged Tyrant’s Egg]

-Detail: The egg of a magical beast with an Epic-rank bloodline.

-Hatching progress: 0%.

“Interesting. And this beast seems to be flying-type from its name,” Admiral Rudra was surprised to see the egg’s details. “Only around four or five others had gotten an Epic-rank beast egg so far. Did you get this from Floor Boss slaying chest?”

“Yeah, I got it from the mystery box that the second floor’s Heroic boss slaying chest gave.”

“Alright, I know someone who can hatch any beasts and might even evolve them in the process. She will handle this egg,” Admiral Rudra smiled.

“Oh? There’s someone who can do that?” Almond startled. To evolve a beast was no easy feat, not to mention evolving it during the hatching process.

“Indeed. She is Paloma Vasquez, the old monster and head of the Vasquez family. And it won’t be long before her main pet reaches Legendary rank. She still has three other Epic-rank pets, out of them, she evolved two from Silver and Gold to Platinum throughout the years.”

“Dang, she is a powerful beast tamer,” Almond grinned. “Then I am looking forward to my pet once it hatches.”

“Sort out your items to be auctioned and the egg. I’m sending Aryan there in a few hours. Give the stuff to him.”

“Actually, wait. No need to send anyone. Since I was able to send that scroll through the digital magic network via mail, and a storage pouch stores items in a confined space, what if I turn that storage pouch into transferrable mail as I did with the scroll and send you?”

Admiral Rudra’s forehead showed black lines, “You can experiment with just one item in a storage pouch first, so don’t use the pouch containing all of those epic and legendary items as an experiment. If it’s lost in the digital realm, you would lose a lot of money.”

Almond wryly smiled, “Yeah, I’ll try with another storage pouch first before trying to send it to you via mail. Alright, bye, and wait for the result.”

Almond started experimenting with a storage pouch and tried to send it to Admiral Rudra, succeeding after half an hour.

Looking at the storage pouch in his mail, he infused Mana and did it the same way he did to interact with the scroll, and it popped out.

“He really did it…”

[Admiral Rudra: Alright, brat. Send the storage pouch with auction items this time. I’ll recieve it.]

Almond didn’t waste time and sent the storage pouch with items, the one skill stone, and the magic beast egg.

Admiral Rudra’s video call came as a hologram popped up.

“I got the pouch. Now, let’s talk about your entry into the S-rank dungeon. It’s set to be tomorrow, but you have to choose the time to enter right now so I can relay it to the Zhou clan.”

Almond rubbed his chin, ‘I am going to spend time learning whispering knowledge, and I don’t know how long it will take. It’s almost 3 o’clock afternoon right now, so….’

“Alright, let’s set it for tomorrow at 7 p.m.”

“So after twenty-eight hours? Alright.”

Admiral Rudra nodded and went offline.

Almond didn’t waste any more time as he had finished eating and went back to the Castle.

Sitting beside Lily on the meditation mattress, he took out the Advanced Skill of Whispering Knowledge and dived in.

…

‘What the fuck?’ Almond wryly smiled.

[The first training stage to learn Whispering Knowledge is to read these 10,000 books of random information and pass a test that will ask you 100 random questions regarding information in the 10,000 books.]

‘Whispering Knowledge is a passive skill….and this first stage might take a lot of time already.’

Almond remembered Marcus taking around 19 hours to finish the training stages and learn his skill from the Advanced Skill Scroll, starting its rank with SSS. Amir took a few more hours to complete training, but his starting skill rank was SS.

Advanced Skill Scroll didn’t have a limit on how long it could take one to learn, so there wasn’t a hurry, but Almond wanted to finish it fast and also do it profoundly.

‘Alright, let’s start reading,’ Almond sat down at the table as his mind avatar appeared in a library.

He spread Mana strings and pulled out tens of books before putting them on the table and started reading them.

Opening a book, the page flipped with his control without touching them, his pupils flickered quickly.

With such high Perception and Focus, he could easily read everything swiftly, imprint what he saw into his mind like a photographic memory, and derive information to store in his mind from that memory.

He read several pages in a single second and soon finished a book before a speechless expression appeared on his face. ‘The fuck did I just read?’

He looked at the cover page and saw the title.

[The Ten Ducks Who Went Through Nirvana and Became Bards.]

‘Well, shit. It looks like I am reading exotic stories in this library.’
