Chapter 313 Mission Completion and Rewards


    ??"The next time we meet, I hope that you''ll be more mature and stronger," Thirteen said as he looked at the pouting Taiga, who was currently looking back at him with a face filled with injustice.


    They had just returned to the Valbarra Archipgo and were standing beside the Hero''s Monument, which was created in honor of Thirteen and his subordinates, as well as those who had fallen in the battle against Arundel the Destroyer.


    "Do you promise toe pick me up when you return?" Taiga asked.


    "I promise," Thirteen replied in a heartbeat. "How can I possibly leave you behind?"


    There was no way that the ten-year-old would leave the hero he trained behind. After all, Taiga would be his meat shield against other Heroes and Viins, whom he would encounter in the future.


    The Tigerkin immediately felt better after receiving the younger boy''s promise.


    Although following the boy, whom he recognized as his Master, had many ups and downs, he had improved thanks to thetter and had also gotten to know him better over the three years that they had been together.


    He knew that whenever Zion made a promise, he would keep it without fail. This was why the boy''s mere promise to pick him up when he returned to Solterra made him very happy.


    "I''ll be waiting, okay?" Taiga said with a smile.


    Thirteen nodded before shifting his gaze to the Devil-Horned Honey Badger, who was lying beside the Hero''s Monument and observing Thirteen with a calm expression on his face.


    "Cranky, the next time we meet, you better be a Majin Prince already, okay?" Thirteen said as he stroked the Honey Badger''s fur. "I need someone strong to help me, so work hard to reach that rank."


    Cranky pretended that he didn''t hear the shameless boy''s words and closed his eyes to take a nap.


    Even after eating so many Cores from the Arcadia Archipgo, the Devil-Horned Honey Badger fell a bit short of bing a Rank 9 Monster.


    Thirteen had already thanked Arthas, the Tigerkin King, the Ogre King, as well as the Troll King for their help back in the Arcadia Archipgo.


    Without them and the Order of Raziel, as well as Camazotz''s and Kamrusepa''s armies, the process of aplishing Shasha''s mission might have ended in tragedy.


    The boy also understood that he only seeded in helping his sister thanks to the gains he received from his Thirteen Trials, as well as the benefits he acquired from the Order of the Apocalypse.


    The connections he had formed over the years also helped him a lot, granting him the privilege to ask for help, which was readily given to him as repayment for the deeds he performed in the past.


    Thirteen patted Cranky''s head onest time before patting Taiga''s shoulder.


    He was ready to go home, but before that, there were still two beings he had to meet.


    Opening his status page, Thirteen looked at the blinking notification, which signaled the end of his three-year quest in Solterra.


    ——————————————


    < Congrattions! >


    < The Thirteen Trials is finallypleted! >


    < Do you wish to return to Pangea? >


    < Yes / No >


    ——————————————


    Thirteen didn''t hesitate and clicked yes.


    But instead of teleporting back to Pangea, he found himself in the Celestial Realm, where Lace Demon and The One were waiting for him.


    Rookies who had justpleted their mission would usually only hear a voice in their heads, congratting them for their mission''spletion.


    After that, a series of notifications listing their rewards would appear inside their heads.


    These new Rookies wouldn''t even get the chance to see the two Omnipotent Beings that governed Solterra and Pangea.


    Only Thirteen had the privilege to appear before them to discuss the rewards that he would gain afterpleting his trial.


    Truth be told, Thirteen already gained the rewards for thepletion of his missions.


    However, the rewards he received from them were different from the rewards that he would gain after facing so many tribtions.


    Tribtions that he originally wasn''t supposed to face since he still hadn''t met the age requirement of going to Solterra. Many Wanderers said that The One was the most unfair and fair God in existence.


    Unfair because it would send Wanderers on missions that were sometimes impossible toplete.


    Little did many know that every Wanderer sent to a particr location had the means to clear these missions.


    However, it wouldn''t be easy.


    The One was using a tactic that was simr to how the body fought against diseases and infections.


    Instead of sending countless White Blood Cells to fight off the infection, The One used Wanderers instead.


    If even a handful of those Wanderers seeded in fixing the problem, then they would be properlypensated for their troubles.


    This was why The One was called the most Unfair and Fair God in existence. The rewards one gained would always be equivalent to their contribution.


    When Lace Demon saw Thirteen, he sighed and waved his hand.


    Immediately, Thirteen''s Status Page appeared in front of them.

    —————————


    The Unique Abilities that Thirteen possessed were all part of the rewards he gained from his Thirteen Trials.


    These skills had bypassed his Skill Ban restriction, allowing the ten-year-old to use them in battle.


    In the past three years, Lace Demon and The One had heavily restricted Thirteen''s use of Rune Magic because, in his hands, it became an extremely potent ability that could break the bnce of the world.


    Since that was the case, they had made an agreement with the boy, which allowed him to use Rune Magic on special asions only.


    But now, that restriction would be lifted.


    After bing a Rookie, Thirteen would be allowed to fully use his Rune Magic as per the agreement that he had with Lace Demon and The One.


    "We will now discuss the rewards that you will receive for helping the Wanderersplete their missions," Lace Demon stated with a solemn expression on his face.


    Thirteen, on the other hand, smiled faintly because he was looking forward to the rewards he would gain afterpleting his three-year journey in Solterra.
