Chapter 834
Anton, his father, and his sister have scheduled their exploration of Anton’s “Hidden World”, which was the Multiplayer option of the Diablo II part in Anton’s Diablo System, for four hours, once a week. Their current schedule was supposed to be on the last day of the week at exactly nine in the evening and would last until one in the morning.
Anders and Anna would have preferred their schedule to be more than what they had, but unfortunately, neither of them could do more than once a week since Anders was busy as a newlywed man and also the head of his mercenary teams, and Anna was busy with her studies in the academy.
The only one who was truly free was Anton. Leveling up their Multiplayer Diablo II characters provided huge benefits to both Anders and Anna. They would have preferred to level up some more because the increase in power was truly tangible. Anton told them that they could start hunting for the truly powerful gears once they were all in their seventies or eighties because, unlike the items that Anton transferred from the game to the real world, the items in the multiplayer options still followed the rule of equipping them when they reached the required stats and level of the items, just like how it normally worked in the game.
They wanted to start hunting for the legendary items since the benefits of the powerful items would truly make both Anders and Anna extremely powerful.
Unfortunately, due to their responsibilities, they couldn’t join Anton for more than the current schedule that they had.
After exploring the world of Diablo II in one of the exploration schedules, Anders asked Anton and Anna to stay for a while so they could talk.
“When are you leaving for the continent of Izmorta?” Anders asked.
Anton shrugged since he really didn’t have a schedule in mind.
“I guess when I’m ready. Why do you ask?”
“To be honest, it would be a good idea for you to wean yourself from the family, so I recommend that you don’t use your portal to return to Ormunda. I would have recommended that you not go home at all so that you can start your life independent from your sister and me. Unfortunately, when I talked to the Ormundan higher-ups regarding their need for your portal scrolls, they wanted the family to keep providing them for at least a year more.”
Anders paused for a while to give Anton the time to think while Anna looked on.
“Since we’re still meeting here in your hidden world, you can hand the portal scrolls to me, and I will pass them on, but regarding these meetings, I recommend that we do this just once a month,” Anders continued.
“That would be very limiting when it comes to leveling up your character in the hidden world and your gear hunting,” Anton said.
“It doesn’t matter. Your growth and your independence are more important. Besides, we do have a high enough level for our hidden world characters, and we do still need to level up our classes outside of your hidden world, especially Anna’s, since her Sorceress class level is really low.”
Anton contemplated what his father had said and realized that it was the truth. He was still firmly tied to the family, and it was possibly one of the things that was hindering his growth.
“I’ll follow your advice, Father. It would have been better if it were a clean break. Like adventuring outside to further my growth and only returning after several years, but as you’ve said, I’m tied with the promise I’ve made with the Ormundan wizards,” Anton smiled.
“It’s only for one more year after that, you’re free. It doesn’t matter too much since you’re only twenty. You don’t need to worry about the family since I’m now powerful in my own right, and your sister’s growth is tremendous as well, so both of us can support the family without any issues. Your four apprentices will also keep supporting the family. I’ve talked with them, and they were happy to stay with the family and would follow the contract that you’ve signed with them without any trouble.”
“At the very least, you don’t need to worry about Kirk. Luna told me that more than likely, Kirk would ask Father for Luna’s hand in marriage after a few more months,” Anna said with a smile.
In truth, the family had done very well when it came to its members. Luna and Alfred had become good members of the family. They were responsible and kind. Romina was very much enjoying the two businesses that she was handling for the family, which were the cinema and the fashion magazine. Anders had also already prepared Susan and Bruce regarding the garden, the orchard, and the grain field reverting to normal grounds since Anton wouldn’t be able to support them with Mana Rain anymore once he left.
“I can support the manor’s fields with my Mana Rain!” Anna suddenly exclaimed.
“You don’t know how to create mana rain,” Anton said flatly. freeweɓnovel.cøm
“You can teach me!”
“Fine, but you will need to reach past level thirty on your Sorceress class first before I teach to convert your cold spells into mana water.”
Anna smiled when she heard Anton’s promise. Mana water was truly beneficial, and she couldn’t wait until she was able to produce it. Just thinking about drinking and bathing in mana water regularly again made her shiver, since something like that would maximize her beauty while she was still growing up. freēwebnovel.com
Anders looked envious since no one could deny the advantages that Mana Water could bring.
“Can I change my Druid class to a Sorcerer class? I want to be able to produce Mana Water as well, so I can make Elisa healthy and look young as well,” Anton’s father suddenly said.
Anton and Anna were startled at their father’s request.
“Let me check. Stay here in the game for a few more minutes,” Anton said after a little pause.
He exited the game and checked the Multiplayer option. He found the information and saw that Anders could delete his character and start over, but he would need to start from level one. He immediately reentered the game.
“My magic told me that you can change your class, but you will need to start from level one. I can help you. I’m not going to leave for Izmorta yet, so I can help you level up safely until your Sorcerer level is high enough, then I’ll teach you how to convert cold spells into Mana Water,” Anton told his father.
“Can I join you in helping Father level up?”
“You can, but it wouldn’t benefit him or you, since starting over from the start wouldn’t earn you experience points and wouldn’t give you powerful items. I recommend that you not join us for now, and just join us next week. By then, father should be high enough to resume our regular exploration,” Anton said, and Anna nodded.
“I’ll talk to you tomorrow, Father, regarding setting up our daily schedule to level up your Sorceress class, if you truly want to switch from a druid class to a sorcerer?” Anton asked his father again to confirm, and Anders nodded resolutely.
Anton could understand his father’s desire to switch since, first, it was easy enough to level up a new character, second, who didn’t want their wives to look young and beautiful again, and third, Anders Paladin character was enough for his dungeon delving business.
