"So that's what happened," Lios said as he gulped down more water from the bottle that Reign had taken out from his inventory. They had explained everything to the man while letting him rest and eat in the cave. Although the stench of blood was a bit heavy in the cave, Lios and the others were people that had fought on battlefields many times and went deep inside forests and other forbidden areas in order to strengthen themselves, eating in such a place wasn't anything special for them.

"I thought you were a bit special, but it seems we really got lucky that we summoned you huh lad?" Lios chuckled as he looked at Reign before drinking the remainder of the bottle. His face was no longer as pale as before as it was obvious that the food and drinks had replenished him a bit, of course, he would still need to rest for a couple of days and regain his strength fully before being able to fight, luckily for him though, there was no reason to fight anymore as they had managed to win the war.

"Well, we should get back, the people in front of the shack are probably worried about what was happening, and don't worry, we wouldn't tell a soul about what happened with the princess or how you dealt with the demon, not that it matters since you're going to leave soon right?" Raigon told Reign as the latter simply nodded in acknowledgment. This was the main reason why Reign had dealt with the demon in this way, even if the kingdom decided to betray him and share the news with the world, he would be long gone.

Not to mention the fact that that might not be beneficial to the kingdom. If any of the larger kingdoms or empires decided to, they could send a couple of their experts here and demand the kingdom give them the way to destroy a demon without harming the possessed person. If the king tried to explain, nobody could vouch that the experts wouldn't do anything, perhaps they would take the king and all the top combatants of the kingdom and torture them in order to find more information. All in all, there was nothing the kingdom would gain from releasing the news to the world.

Reign looked at the notification in front of him with surprise. He knew that after he had destroyed the demon's soul fragment the quest would be over, but he never anticipated that he could actually choose when to return. The ability to check up on the others was another bonus that would allow him to know if he was needed back home or not.

Reign quickly checked the others with the help of the system, only to find out that none of them had gone through the evolution yet. He wasn't that surprised, his mission was one that could have taken months if not for the incredible opportunity he was given in order to deal the final blow to the king of Older and finish the mission.

Some evolution missions weren't quite hard, they only needed some time in order to be completed. Lico for example still hadn't gone through it because one of his missions was exactly like that, although it wasn't as hard as Reign's, it would take the man a long time to deal with it, since the war had started he didn't have time to deal with it, but now he would.

"Hmm, Greenie went through the evolution huh?" Reign chuckled a bit as he checked Greenie as well, thanks to the inheritance that Greenie had, he didn't need to go through any missions and simply needed some time to break through the first evolution.

"Must be nice." Reign chuckled a bit as he brought the window down, since nobody had finished their respective challenges, there was no real reason for Reign to hurry with going back. Greenie was already a first evolution combatant and Reign was quite certain that nothing in the area was able to go against him.

Reign had multiple first evolution combatants with whom he could spar and improve here, so he would rather stay here for a couple of days before some of his teammates finished with their evolutions. Of course, even if they didn't go through the evolutions, Reign would still return as he could only improve so much with sparring sessions.

"Hmmm, I have a lot of free points left." Reign thought to himself as he looked at his status screen. He didn't know if he would gain anything if he brought any of the stats to 200, but it was worth a shot. Not to mention that he also needed to improve his strength even more, and using the free points was one of the best ways to do it.

Without even thinking about it too much, Reign decided to invest 41 points into Spirit and bring it up to 200 right away. After doing so, however, Reign was a bit disappointed to find that no threshold had been reached and no skill was given to him. His mana however was increased by a large amount thanks to the increase in spirit, the density and volume of it were higher compared to before.

"Now, what would this be?" Reign thought to himself as he looked at the gift card in his hands. After reading the description he was able to find out that the gift card would give him three items, from which he could freely choose 1.

"Hmmm, not bad, let's see what it gives me." Reign smiled as he activated the card that started shining brightly, in a couple of moments the card scattered in the air as three small portals suddenly appeared in front of Reign. From each of the portals, an item came out, after looking at the three items Reign blinked twice in order to make sure he wasn't dreaming.

[ Rank S Gloves ]

[ Rank S Armor ]

[ Mysterious Object ]

None of the three items were truly shown to Reign and he couldn't even see the description of the items, only a general outline and name could be seen. But still, each of the first two items were rank S, as for the final item, Reign couldn't even see the outline of it, there was simply a ball of fog that prevented him from knowing anything.

"Get the last items boy!" Aethion suddenly shouted at Reign as the latter stumbled a bit. He had never heard the old man being so excited and nervous at the same time.

'Why?' Reign simply asked him with a chuckle.

"Because this is the system that's rewarding you boy, the gift cards it gives always have a chance of having this kind of mysterious object with them, nobody knows what it might be, but from everything me and a couple of other Transcendents have seen, it was always something that the player in question needs, or will need."

"The first two items are usually there to entice the player so that he will not even consider what could be the mysterious object, after all, why risk anything when either of the first two items were great right?"

'Yup.' Reign nodded his head and said.

"Well wrong, the third one might not be as good sometimes, but it will always be useful to the player in one way or the other, I'm telling you, kid, you won't be disappointed if you chose it, but hey, it's your reward, after all, so do whatever you want."

Reign chuckled at Aethion's words, but he knew that the old man meant well. Since he could feel the excitement in the man's words previously, he knew that the third option was probably going to be the best for him. That was of course what he chose.

As Reign chose the third item, the first two were sucked back into their respective portals before the third item was unveiled to Reign. His face first showed an expression of confusion before his eyes widened in shock from what was in front of him.
