Jaeden’s eyes snapped to the notification as it flashed into existence, floating eerily before him. The humid, acrid smell of the Unholy Corruption clung to the stale air of the stairwell, making the sudden system message feel even more surreal. He hadn’t expected anything - especially not now - but the system seemed to have other ideas.
S.A.S.S.Y.:
- Circle 11 Milestone Reached! Choose Class Evolution!
- Error: No Class Found. Delayed Evolution activated.
Jaeden squinted at the screen, a groan slipping out. "Delayed Evolution activated? Are you kidding me? I’m being punished, aren’t I?” He lamented dramatically.
He swiped at the notification, hoping to clear it, but the message stayed put, flashing stubbornly. As he tried again, a new line appeared.
Unique Title Acquired:
- Seeker: Grants boost to skill progression.
"Seeker, huh? Well, thanks for that.” He gave a mock salute to the system screen. “How about ‘Finally Finds Answers’ while you’re at it? Just a thought.”
He dismissed the notification, half-expecting a reprieve, but the system was just getting started.
S.A.S.S.Y.:
- Circle 12 Milestone Reached! (Circle 11 Milestone Reached: Choose Class Evolution!)
- Error: No Class Found. Access to Unique Skill Trees, Delayed.
Jaeden bit back a curse, shifting his weight to avoid the slimy green mold that crept along the step beneath him. His eyes scanned the message, trying to make sense of it. “Access to Unique Skill Trees, delayed… Alright, so when can we expect that to arrive, system? Five to seven business days?”
But then a new message flickered across the screen, a little different from the rest.
Unique Title Upgraded:
- Seeker upgraded to Omnist: Grants access to Omnist Skill Tree.
- Error: Prerequisites not met. Circle 13 is necessary to unlock.
- Alternative advancement awarded: Accelerated Skill Progression
The word Omnist hung in the air, filling him with a strange sense of… possibility. The Omnist Skill Tree. He’d heard so much about it -not! – damn these whispers of a path he’d never heard of before, or even suspected to exist. At least the name was encouraging, it seemed to indicate a progression path for those who didn’t fit into neat little boxes, those who were… undecided.
He laughed softly to himself, one eyebrow arched. "So let me get this straight. I’m worthy enough for the system to give me a taste of the Omnist, but not quite worth opening the front door?” His voice echoed faintly, bouncing off the damp stone walls, as if the temple itself found his predicament amusing.
He shook his head, a smirk tugging at his lips. “Sure, I get it - ‘Sorry, Jaeden, but you’ll need to ascend just a bit more before we let you into the cool kids' club.’”
He dismissed the notifications, taking a deep breath to clear his head. The weight of the new title, Omnist, lingered even as the notifications vanished. Whatever it was - whatever it could be - he had a feeling this was only the beginning. And it wasn’t nothing. After all, he was standing on the cusp of something big.
“Alright then,” he murmured, casting a wary glance down the shadowy stairwell. “Guess we’re on the scenic route. Again.”
With a final look around, Jaeden tightened his grip on his weapon, the chill of the stone seeping into his bones. Whatever awaited him further in, he’d be ready - skill tree or not.
