"I choose this one!"
Without a hint of hesitation, Tina selected the Epic Elemental Pugilist ss. As soon as she did, her body released a bright glow, which faded an instantter. Although it didn''t have the same grandeur as Cassy''s, the transition to an Epic ss still created quite a stir.
"Hehe! See that, you bitch? An epic ss! You should prepare to lick my foot!"
And of course, she didn''t forget to taunt Kali now that she got a ss second only to a legendary one. Tina was almost convinced she had already won the match!
"Hmph! You didn''t even get a legendary. Stop boasting." Kali wasn''t amused but still felt some pressure. Still, she didn''t let it overwhelm her and countered with logic. "And Elemental Pugilists are DPS, which means we lost one of our tanks. Idiot."
Without even waiting for Faeloria''s call, Kali already walked over to the machine, pushed Tina away, and ced her palm on top, letting the machine analyze her "achievements."
The analysissted for but a minute before disying her new ss-up choices. Although her expression remained stoic as usual, she was actually anxiously praying for at least an Epic ss to appear!
[
Common: Assassin (IV)
Rare: Trickster (I)
Epic: Master of Shadows (I)
Epic+: Death''s Agent (I)
]
"E-Epic... plus?!"
Faeloria already lost count of how many times she got surprised within the short time they were there. For the third time, another ss that''s extremely hard toe by appeared!
Kali''s eyes opened wide, unable to believe what her ss-up choices were. However, she soon realized one truth and snickered, her head turning diagonally to her back in a mocking gaze, while staring at Tina''s ashen face.
"It''s my win." That was all she said.
"N-No way! It''s a tie! We''re both Epic, so it''s a tie!"
"Mine''s Epic+, rarer than in Epic, so I win the bet! Haha, I''m looking forward to making you lick my feet!"
Kali pressed her choice while they bantered with each other, but her finger slipped. She wasn''t paying attention, so in the end, the ss she selected wasn''t the Rare+ Death''s Agent, but rather the Rare Master of Shadows ss!
"H-Haha! See? You selected Rare! We''re the same rarity, so it''s a tie!"
"What? N-No way...!"
When she realized what she had done, it was all toote. Her body released a bright sh of light, signifying that the ss-up was sessful. But no matter how much she scrunched her eyes, the ss name disyed on the monitor wasn''t the one she wanted.
"... This is your fault, you vixen! You distracted me on purpose!"
"Your failure to pay attention is not my fault!" It''s a tie! The bet is now null and void!"
Tina barely survived by the skin of her teeth! She was almost made to lick Kali''s feet, if not for her small misclick!
Kali was shocked. Not only did she miss out on winning their bet, but she even failed to get a Rare+ ss! The difference between the two sses might be small at the start, but the difference in their upper limits should be evident when they reach higher levels.
Watching the two cats continue to quarrel, Liz, thest one on the line, silently went forward. With Faeloria''s guidance, she ced her palm on top of the panel, letting the machine read her achievements and consolidate the list of sses she could rank up to.
"No way..."
Faeloria''s short gasp caused everyone to turn their attention over to the board once more.
The others gasped in shock when they saw what was on the board, just like Faeloria and Liz did.
"Th... The second legendary...!" Aster, who quickly snapped back to his senses, raised his voice in disbelief. "It''s another legendary ss!"
However, unlike Cassy''s situation, Liz had only one choice to make. It was literally giving her no other choice but to select the legendary ss disyed before her!
[
Legendary: Divine Knight of Retribution
]
Just by looking at the name, Aster could already infer how she acquired it—thanks to the three skills she acquired after meeting Mummy on the 5th floor—Nefra: Guardian''s Embrace, Invulnerability, and Vengeance Burst.
"A legendary... I got a legendary...!" Liz slowly digested the words written on the monitor, causing a smile to spread across her face.
With the flow of events, all of them could harbor a guess that the two legendaries were somehow rted to Nefra herself. After all, the two individuals to whom she bestowed her skills had sessfully acquired legendary sses consecutively!
"I should''ve asked for a skill too..."
Kali muttered to herself, regretting her past choices. Tina was roughly of the same mind,menting herck of foresight and choosing weapons instead of practical skills for her ss.
Liz was no longer dyed, tapping on the name of the new ss she was about to get.
Just like with Cassy, a golden pir of light fell over her, causing another heavenly spectacle to erupt. At that point, the curiosity of everyone in the city had reached its peak, wondering what was going on.
Seeing two gigantic pirs of light appear in the middle of the city is weird, no doubt!
"Now, I can''t go without reporting this..." Faeloria sighed but still showed a wry smile while overseeing the girls before her.
