"You don't need to reach Epic to have the Second Class but a blessing from god." Tang Shaoyang told her. He was not worried for her to spread the secret since they were connected to each other now.

—Bullshit, God does not exist!

Rosalie the Flame Queen retorted quickly.

"I am not talking about the Spiritual God, the God that created the world. I am talking about a strong individual, strong enough to be called a god. I got my second class from them." Tang Shaoyang explained, "They are just like us, a human but with a power that does not belong to a human. That's the best explanation I can come up with."

Rosalie fell silent. She recalled the powerful individual in her old world. There was a being called Demi-God. Revered and admired by many as they were the vanguard of humanity against the Underworld.

If an existence such as Demi-God existed, it was possible for God also existed. She felt that he did not deceive her.

—Have you met one?

Rosalie asked even though she was obvious to the answer. If he had the second class, that meant he met god once.

"I do! I met two actually. God and Goddess. I made a contract with Goddess and God wanted to kill me. Fortunately, I was saved by the system," Tang Shaoyang nodded, "But you should stop calling me Little Man or Man, you should call me Master like the other spirits."

—So this goddess gave you the blessing.

She pretty much ignored Tang Shaoyang's words.

"No, I tricked the gods for the blessing, that was why god came to kill me. As for the goddess, it was secret. I can't tell you." He smirked in return, "Enough with your question, it's my turn."

"You seem familiar with my class, how much do you know about my class?" Tang Shaoyang asked the thing he wanted to know the most.

—Of course, you are my third contractor. The reason I don't see hope to get resurrected is that my first two contractors failed to do so. They died before they could get the skill.

Rosalie brought surprising information to him. It was unbelievable that someone with the Spirit Contractor class died so early.

A frown formed on his forehead, "How did they die? Who could kill them?"

—I don't know, but they died before they could reach Epic. They died by following the trial to reach Epic. I don't know how they died and who killed them. The spirits could not participate in the trial.

Rosalie explained nonchalantly as if she did not care about her first two contractors. However, the Queen seemed to forget the contract. He could feel what she felt right now. She was quite sad inside and tried to cover with her nonchalant tone.

"That's weird. Spirits are part of the Spirit Contractor, without spirits, we are much weaker," Tang Shaoyang could not help doubt this trial. The class was Spirit Contractor and they were not allowed to bring the spirit in the trial. It was strange for sure.

—Right? I feel like the trial is rigged by the system to kill the Spirit Contractor.

Rosalie agreed with Tang Shaoyang. The trial was ridiculous. It was as if forcing a swordsman to fight but without a sword.

—That's why you don't have to join the trial and you can never help me to solve my grudge as well. My enemy should be around Epic if not Ancient or maybe they have reached Myth.

"Then three is your lucky number. I think I can do the trial without a problem even without my spirits," Tang Shaoyang answered confidently. He had a second class, his talent was superior, and he also had a bloodline. He was strong even without spirits, and lately, he tried to not rely on spirits. The reason why he never tried [Spirit Integration].

—Just listen to my advice if you don't want to die, Man! Life is more important than the inevitable death.

Tang Shaoyang ignored her advice, of course. Her words would not stop him from becoming stronger. He was about to ask more about his predecessor but the city was at the sight, "We are here, I will bring you to your Crystal so you will stop calling me a liar."

He went straight to the main building and was greeted by Wen. The Jade Eagle had evolved again when he reached level 400. He was now stage-9 Beast. Tang Shaoyang could feel the change. The Beast's aura changed and his feather became even luster and shiny.

"Bring me to Crystal Room!" He commanded the Jade Eagle. The latter nodded and turned around, "Please follow me, Master." Wen brought Tang Shaoyang to the elevator. The beastmen pressed number 5, meaning Crystal and Commander Ashley were on the fifth floor.

—What's this? There is no such thing in my world? Does this thing operate with mana?

Just like the other spirits, Rosalie the Flame Queen showed curiosity about Earth's technology.

'This thing called Elevator, an invention of our people of the Earth and it does not use mana…' Tang Shaoyang paused. If it was before the game, he would be confident to say that the elevator did not use mana, but not this time. He did not know what powered the elevator. The power plant should be shut down with the zombie appearance. He doubted that the power plant was still operating as normally as before.

'I am not sure either, maybe we should find the source of the power. I am afraid the power is only temporary…' He expressed his thoughts to the only spirit that resided inside him.

Tang Shaoyang was aware that the lofty Queen was about to mock him for not knowing the technology in his world. Fortunately, they arrived on the fifth floor. With the sound of "Ding", the elevator door opened.

'We have arrived, we will meet your Crystal soon. After that, we are going to have a conversation about my predecessor.' Tang Shaoyang said to Rosalie as he followed the Jade Eagle to the left hallway. They only walked a few meters and stopped in front of a door. Wen opened the door and they saw something unexpected.

The cold Commander Ashley was embraced by Crystal the Frost Knight. The sobbing filled the room but it came to an abrupt stop as soon as they heard the sound of the door opening.

Commander Ashley looked away and took the helmet next to her. She then put the helmet on as she did not want her face to be seen. Meanwhile, Crystal stood up and bowed toward him.

Tang Shaoyang entered the room with Wen following him. He waved his hand at Crystal and looked toward Commander Ashley. The woman was quickly recovered as her gaze quickly returned to the icy cold as their gazes met.

After giving a quick check on her, he turned back toward Crystal and said, "I bring you a surprise, Crystal!" At the same time, he spoke to Rosalie in his head, 'Is she the same crystal you know?'

—Yes, she is. Quickly summon me with your skill!

Rosalie urged Tang Shaoyang. He said nothing and cast [Spirit Manifestation]. A figure formed in front of him. The same Rosalie with a red-fiery dress.

However, to his surprise, a fierce killing intent radiated from Crystal the Frost Knight.
