Connor Baines - Shadowheart - stood before the dais of the Private Room, thoughtfully parsing through his options.

Since Shadowheart did not have more than one Inheritance like Essence or Draco, it seemed like his options were limited. They were naturally fewer, but their quality was unchangeable.

'It seems Ouroboros' and my power of eternity has opened a path forward for us. Since Draco said he would sponsor my Cla.s.s Up, I have no need to worry about finds.' Shadowheart thought to himself.

As such, he naturally chose the option of attempting the Eternal Magus cla.s.s, which was the only Divine option available. When he made his choice, he was naturally whisked away into blackness much like those who came before him.

Beginning Eternal Magus Cla.s.s Up Procedure. Standby.

Shadowheart noticed that he had appeared in a world that was bizarre. It was like he was standing amidst ancient Roman ruins, but these ruins were built on a cloud-like layer in the sky, and the time of day was sunset, so there was an ominous red tinge to everything.

Shadowheart looked around and observed his surroundings warily before making a mistake that most in his situation would, he looked up.

Eternal Magus Divine Cla.s.s Up Procedure

Description: Eternity is the domain of the Origin G.o.ds, something that ties their existence to the universe. This connection is managed and enforced by the Ouroboros, a special serpent that bit its own tail in order to form an eternal cycle for the universe. You, a measly mortal, dare to infringe on this power without understanding the immensity of heaven and earth.

Rewards: Divine Cla.s.s - Eternal Magus

What Shadowheart saw shook him to the core. Right above him, mere meters away, was the eye of a gigantic serpent that was burnished yellow in color, the slitted pupils staring at him intently.

Imagine raising your head to see something like this so close to you, in a realm that already looks bizarre and creepy. Even if you didn't have a heart attack, you would at least release two lumps of s.h.i.+t in your pants from fear, right?

However, Shadowheart only trembled internally from the suddenness before calming himself down. He was now more thankful for his harsh life experience more than ever, for they had tempered his mind and will in ways he could never have thought.

"A mere mortal" a rumbling voice filled with age and wisdom sounded, shaking Shadowheart's entire body like he had stood next to a giant speaker while someone was blasting tunes.

The objective of the Eternal Magus Cla.s.s Up Procedure has been set. Player Shadowheart must claim an essence of eternity to clear this task.

Seeing the objective, Shadowheart's eyes flashed. He quickly calculated in his heart and could not help but find his lips curling upwards slightly as he found this mission intriguing.

"Mortal, why do you disturb my eternal charge? Do you know the weight of your sins?" the rumbling voice spoke once more.

Shadowheart calmly looked into those pupils, no longer worried or fearful of them or the one behind them. After all, he had spent years with an even bigger and more powerful version of the same serpent in his body.

This one that was a mere digital virtualization could not faze him.

"I have no sins, for I represent true eternity, not the falsehood you stand by." Shadowheart stated directly, not even trying to act subservient to get what he wanted.

There was a short spell of silence before the entire realm rumbled greatly, almost sending Shadowheart to the ground. However, he managed to keep stable as a low growl pervaded the realm.

"Mortal, your words are full of ignorance and arrogance. You stand before the great Ouroboros, wielder, and protector of eternity. How dare you claim I represent a false eternity?"

Shadowheart raised an eyebrow. "So can you tell me with full confidence that this universe you inhabit is true? That it is complete?"

Ouroboros paused. "It seems you have noticed something mortal. Yes, this universe is flawed in its existence, but that had nothing to do with me. Whether full universe or not, the eternity I generate is true to its nature."

"Is that so? I can't help but find myself skeptical. After all, I represent the source of eternity for another universe, this one a true one." Shadowheart revealed calmly.

"Impossible!" rumbled Ouroboros who shook the entire realm greatly.

"Is it? How did I qualify to get here then? How did I trigger such a response? Be serious." Shadowheart waved Ouroboros doubts away as if they were flimsy gas.

Most importantly, he raised a finger and release a single glowing orb of energy that was golden and silver at the same time. It radiated an essence of stability and reliability, like having it would guarantee one could see anyone or anything for as long as they wanted.

When the slitted pupil of Ouroboros saw this...o...b.. it shook terribly, and the realm experience its worst earthquake so far. It lasted more than 10 minutes, yet strangely did not affect Shadowheart who stood in the same place with a light smile.

Ouroboros soon calmed down and spoke after much thought. "Explain your circ.u.mstances to me, mortal."

"It is simple. I come from a universe where my origin was split into two because etc." Shadowheart casually explained as he returned the Essence of Eternity he had produced back into himself.

Ouroboros listened attentively, only asking slight questions at parts before remaining silent, pondering on what to do about this.

"Counterpart You need an essence of eternity to achieve what you came here for. It can be provided by yourself, no? I now see why you are so confident." Ouroboros replied with a sigh.

Yes, that was the case. When Shadowheart had read the mission statement, he had smiled because he could create the cla.s.s he needed simply by infusing the Essence of Eternity he possessed into himself.

As such, him talking to Ouroboros was not because he needed to fulfill the quest per se, but for another reason, which was what Ouroboros wanted to find out.

Shadowheart smirked. "Must I have an ulterior motive? I want to make sure my counterpart in this game is knowledgeable about my existence and likely form an agreement."

Networking? Just that?

Ouroboros was silent for a while before a ball of golden-silver essence was sent from the horizon and crashed into Shadowheart's body, making the fellow gaze at Ouroboros with a look of confusion and resolve.

"Counterpart, do not waste your eternity essence just yet. Use mine to upgrade your power, and reserve yours for when we match worlds! At that point, every single drop of essence you have would make a difference."

Ouroboros spoke finally, as if it had made a decision. "Go now, young Shadowheart. I shall remember your name and wait for the day you reach the pinnacle of your strength and grasp the truth of eternity. Once you do, you will understand and come back here."

Shadowheart didn't get to utter another word as his eyes glazed over in darkness, returning him to the Private Room. Despite having succeeded, Shadowheart had a strange feeling in his heart, wondering if he was being dragged into something greater than he hoped.

Whatever the case, he decided to let it go for now as he was checking the report from the system.

Shadow was quite pleased with his new cla.s.s. Now that he had been relegated back to Rank 1, it was time to grow his cla.s.s fervently while he waited for the other G.o.d Serpents to a.s.semble.

As such, Shadowheart left his Private Room to go and grind. However, he only took a step out when he saw Essence Stalker also exit a Private Room opposite him, his face contemplative.

That was because Essence was also a.n.a.lyzing his new cla.s.s' details.

The two powerhouses raised their heads to look at each other, feeling a distinct threat from the other that could vanquish their lives with ease.

As such, their natural response was to party together and challenge dungeons together!
