REBORN IN AN RPG runs on humour 2.0 and Common Sense 1.1, which power our system, collected on this pdf
<--- this pdf

Expect old RPG references, old anime references, and old movie references.

I still can't get over the fact apparently none of our regulars seem to have seen Flash Gordon

At least they seem to know who Voltron (Defender of the Universe, Loved by Good, Feared by Evil!) is, even if they didin't watch it

Voltron!

or 5 lv 100 Archbishops Avatar together?

>we are still short a kitten.
Would that be Mako, or Elli?

Anyway, since it's a holiday, we can let the girls sleep in just a bit longer.

>>35994679
The Swag Knight rises again! After enjoying this moment a bit more. Does Lyann have her funbags developed yet? Is she destined for tactical boobies or DFC?

>>35994721
Hi!

>>35994747
Well, dad is a follower of The Light (do not confuse with the Cult of Light), but mom is actually a Voltronite, same as our Godfather, so in going with tradition, we can expect plenty of hugs today, as those of good will try to merge with one another (symbolically of course) through a good warm hug.

We never did ask Lyann which, if any, religion she follows. It's hard to believe Zoe and Stella follow any religion, albeit they would be inclined to follow whatever lets them give us the highest amount of hugs, after all.

"Ah... let's get up?" ~asks Eldric
"Let's not" ~says Lyann as she gently squishes Eldric against her chest
"Nuuh" ~says Stella from under the sheets. Why is she upside down, really?

Zoe seems to be genuinely still asleep, actually

"Young Master, good da- oooh, the young master is already celebrating Fusion day?" ~Elli, our cheerful elf maid says as she walks in with Eldric's breakfast~ "I guess I'll leave everyone's breakfasts here, then"

She takes out everyone's breakfasts from her Item Box, and leaves them on the room before going out of the room.

"Please get up soon, young master. I think your mother wants to take everyone to the temple to celebrate fusion day." ~she says as she goes back downstairs

Well, mom is both a wizard and a healer... last year she didin't celebrate Fusion day, but she was much too preoccupied with worries at the time, This year, she seems more calm after all the good news that have been going around about the war.

Also, this year she's expecting our newest siblings, so she may want to get them blessed in Fusion day.

I am afraid I honestly don't know the tactical boobies meme. But with her app score...

"Zoe, are you asleep?"
Well, there's no answer
"Stella, aren't you wearing your pajama?"
"I don't like to" ~right... it does feel rather soft and warm all the way down
"Why are you sleeping upside down?"
"I got in late, there was no room around your head"
"...I see"

Well, breakfast is going to grow cold, should we...

"Alright, fine" ~Eldric struggles to get up with the girls still clinging to him.

Obviously Zoe was just faking

She clings to Eldric's right arm while Lyann clings to his left arm, and Stella clings to his left leg upside down, which, yeah, its considerably more difficult.

Like this, we manage to get out of bed, just in time for mom to walk in and see our mini fusion.

"...as adorable as the attempt is, Eldric, you can't go to the temple like that. Please everyone have your breakfast and wash, alright?" ~she says after a moment

Athena walks in and hugs Eldric's right leg. Well, now we have enough kittens.

"...no, it really won't work. Come on, get up children" ~she picks up Athena, who pouts slightly as she gets pulled away from her big brother, her lips making a B^< expression

After a few more moments, everyone falls together to the floor in a mess of soft girls. Disentangling takes a little bit, but soon everyone is having breakfast together.

After washing and dressing up, mom takes everyone to the temple. It's a very lively ceremony with lots of food tables outside the temple, and everyone is giving hugs to everyone before and after mass.

Well, it's nice seeing people just being nice to eachother. There will also be a festival and a parade later.

If we got more involved with the church, we could participate in the parade next year.

This world has only 4 holidays a year (well, at least our corner of the world does), so this is a rare occasion. What should we do, since we have most of the morning free?

*Go hug our acquaintances. Grummir, Miiyau, Okaba, Aura, Mako, Ami, Mai, Uncle Dan, etc
*Go enjoy the parade with mom and our sisters
*Purchase gifts and go spread them at the orphanage
*Other

>>35995203

I don't want Lyann to miss out on family time because we were running around

but stop over and give Uncle Dan a hug, he lives right next door.

Well, since mom got us out to celebrate Fusion day with her, we'll stick with her at least for the length of the parade.

Indeed, there are some hot air balloons shaped like large cats, and a Voltron one closing the parade at the end. People is in a very good mood, and happily hug eachother to celebrate.

There's also cat-shaped treats, and mom gets us each a candy pallete.

Athena is a bit too young, so mom gets her some mandarina slices instead.

All of us also get cat hoods. Mom and Zoe look at eachother for a few moments, before mom decides to get one for her anyway. Thus we all have little lion head hoodies as we walk home together after the parade.

Since it's still early, we ask mom for permission to go hug our friends, and she seems happy to let us do so.

Grummir and Miiyau have their own faiths, but they are happy to get a hug.

Incidentally, Zoe and Stella also came along.
They're not wearing their hoodies anymore, but Zoe seems to be very popular on Fusion day. People keeps stopping her and giving her candy or hugs.

We fine Dawn and Asmund in the market streets. Dawn has no problem sharing hugs with everyone. ...its a bit weird to hug Asmund, since we still don't quite know what to think about him. But he seems to be a Voltronite so his feelings are honest.

Mako is not a Voltronite, and the whole "everyone is giving hugs" experience its immensely odd to her, but she's happy to get our hug, all the same.

By the way, Ami and Mai's clothes already look like kitten suits, so it seems everyone just assumed they are very devoted voltronites. They got lots of hugs and candy today.

Huh... they are actually quite popular, aren't they? Well, they're quite attractive, after all.

Mako looks adorable with her kitty hood. Even tho she's not a voltronite, her shadows got her one. Yup. Kitty Mako's cuteness is off the scales. Even more so when she blushes after every hug

They tell us that Honoria is at the chess club, and we find that several of our club members are there.

Aritsu, our club's secretary/treasurer elf girl is also wearing a cat hoodie, and while Honoria isin't a voltronite, they are both equally happy to get a hug. We get rather swarmed, actually.

The older girls of the chess club, apparently, had all been waiting for us to show up and enjoy being able to hug us to their hearts content.

"D-don't cling so much!" ~Stella eventually seems to snap, getting in the way

It seems she's actually the most jealous of the girls around us, even if she's also pne of the more quiet ones.

The older girls think she, too, its adorable, so the result is that we are both getting hugged now.

Once we manage to get away, we learn that Okaba is not in the campus.

Getting lots of cat hoodies and candies, we head over to the orphanage. Sure enough, the prince is having a small Fusion day event in the garden, with tables and... oh, uncle Dan is officianting the ceremony for the children.

Is the religion actually called Voltronism?

>>35995685
yes. This is not a very serious thread, at all, most of the time

>>35995677
Well, the children are happy to get the hoods. Even the ones that are from the cat beast tribe.

We hug uncle Danren, and Okaba and Aura, and the children, then have a light meal with them before going back home.

It's nice to walk together with three beauties. Lyann is holding Eldric's left hand while Zoe is holding his right hand, and Stella is walking next to Lyann.

Even so, don't think everyone is a Voltronite. Only a few people here and there offer to give us hugs when they spot our cat hoods. Well, that would explain why we didint got any last year

Once we get back home, we have a light lunch, and then mom spends the best part of what feels forever hugging us all.

Well, there isint a child that wouldnt try to run away after a little while of this.

On the other hand, Athena is too small to run from mom, so this year we'll have her be the sacrifice to the hug goddess in our name.

With the rest of the day free, we eventually do rescue Athena, much to mom's regret, and go play outside with her.

Well, Athena is old enough to walk around on her own, if a little woobbly and slowly, but she has fun running around the garden.

Its a nice atmosphere, with so many pretty girls among the flowers.

"Ilric!" ~Athena laughs softly as she runs after Eldric~ "Ilric Ilric!" ~she cries out as she chases us around

Our little sister is quite adorable

Elli comes out with a jug of fresh juice, and everyone sits together to enjoy it

"Juss Ilric, juss!" ~we sit Athena in our lap and help her sip some juice

There's no such thing as baby bottles in this world, but Athena has a colorful cup with a little beak to sip juice from.

"Tashty!" ~she laughs softly

Hopefully, these nice and peaceful days will continue for a long time.

A few months later, we are preparing to celebrate our 10th birthday.

In this world, only the 5th, 10th and 15th birthday are celebrated.

It is easy to tell that everyone in the house is getting ready for it.

By the way, Asmund hasn't done anything suspicious at school. He's in fact, quite popular. Even with Dawn playing pranks on pretty much everyone.

"Eldric, what are you doing?" ~Mako asks while we space out in the middle of a chess game

She's grown more and more natural around us. She's all around a much livelier girl, nowadays. It's easy to tell that Mai and Ami are tremendously happy about it.

"Ah, sorry" ~huh... she has us on check

Okaba walks into the club room, and is greeted by his fangirls. He's quite popular

After conceding the win to Mako, we excuse ourselves and go talk with him and Honoria. Its rather obvious that they are talking about us, the way they go quiet when we approach, and quickly change the subject.

Well, they may be planning on getting us a gift or such.

Of course, we invite almost all our friends to our party that evening. Since the new house is quite big, mom said it was no problem.

There's a patricidal vampire sucking mana from the entire city so he can throw down against his mad scientist father and murder him.

Why wouldn't you have a sense of dread?

So we've unlocked mamluk, then? Did we get mako and okaba to learn with us?

>>35996288
No, what you should be worried about is being dragged away from everyone because now we're 10 and we need to be taught some military training by our grandfather.

We're going to get sent off to military school.

>>35996304
And what about the plans to unlock all our family's jobs?

Man has to go, the only problem is the dude hasn't thought about what comes after. Okaba put him in his place, let's hope he learns from that.

>>35996324
Or level grumnir and get him to work building runic sets of armor and weapons for everyone.

>>35996317
So what happens when we go into a fight with our instructor with no weapons or armor, deliberately let him hit us and watch as it bounces harmlessly off our skin?

Because we have over 210 armor naked. And hit for that much barehanded.

Dident that nature spirit we were polite to near the beginning offer to give us a gift on our birthday because we were nice?...what was her name again?

By the way, a lot of girls intercept us at the college gates, and shower us with gifts. We are also getting hugged and smooched, enough so that Stella's lips are making a へ as she watches with her tail and ears down, looking like she doesn't likes it at all

Can we id some stuff for making either better paper, or anything else interesting?

>>35996597
Nope, she got force aged. There was a whole shitstorm about it.

>>35996614
we should not talk about that day it was annoying beyond belief

>>35996632
Why aren't we force aging all the orphans, anyway?

>>35996317
Fluffy times are fun and all but I sure do look forward to more time putting our abilities and ideas to work. Looking forward to the location switch.

>>35996330
Speaking of our blood sucking mana draining acquaintance, we should think about reverse engineering those spiders into a Mana Belt or other storage device for when we want to Alpha Strike even harder than normal (or pop off 3 Dragon's Forces in a day). Then move on to mana engines since they work via harnessing ambient magical energies we may be able to set up a system that stores, expels and reabsorbs mp in a continuous cycle depending on if spells turn back into mana after their effect is finished. If we found a way to create a circuit that provides energy without losing any MP we'd basically have infinite fuel supplies. Pump a Dragon's Force worth of MP into the circuit and be set. If we could find a way to abuse Cascade for the process that would be even better. 100mp effect goes into a cascade engine, hits 3 absorbing crystals that feed MP back into a main battery, 300mp effect goes off and repeats the process. Could probably also make a pretty devastating weapon. It'd probably take us a long time to reach that level of research/fabrication but we could probably use those little constructs as the foundation for Magical Reactors, some more benign than others. Just a thought based off of "mana can be stored, mana can be directed, and mana can be amplified".

>>35996646
because only the beast people can do that

>>35996700
So force age all the beast kid orphans. It's apparently a perfectly moral thing to do.

>>35996716
it more like a morally gray thing we only aged stella because she asked

>>35996742
Give them the option.

And while we're at it, unlock all their starter jobs and swap them to wizard for the int gains.

>>35996433
>*Look around the market for materials we might recognize

>>35996752
im ok with giving them the option but that leaves another question

if they do accelerate the age are they allowed to stay at the orphanage

I was waiting sooo long for someone to notice

Yes, she's basically the spirit of water, but there's no religion specifically around her. She's at best seen as one more minor natural spirit, and there's very few shrines to her specifically in the world.

>>35996597
We did age her so she's "technically" 15 same as Zoe. More than jealous, she's loyal, and doesn't likes it when strangers get all touchy with us.

>>35996603
sure

***
Well, we go to the marketplace with Lyann while mom takes Zoe and Stella home.

As usual, Kalkah greets us on sight. She's wearing a rather cute, brand new uniform. It's similar to what we got for Elli. So similar in fact, it's not hard to guess who made it.

Well, she looks cute. Also, she's had a job change.

She's a Herbalist now.

Come think of it, where does she get all her fruit from? is she going to the eastern foodgeon in the mornings?

She gives us a discount on apples and melons, and we thank her before going around, checking the market goods.

Lyann steers us towards a flower shop so she can get seeds for the garden, and we are checking around when we notice a yellow dust spilling slowly out of a bag labeled "plant food"

...its ...yeah, it's saltpeter, isin't it?

Well... this is definitively a chance. Inquiring about it, it turns out that it comes as a common drop on the 4th floor of the Eastern Foodgeon.

Common, huh? right, its [Low][Saltpeter]. So it must come from relatively weak monsters. In this world, it looks like it is used solely as plant food.

We purchase it, and go over to Okaba with it

>>35996716
Just please leave that shit storm behind us. The forced aging thing was ill thought out on the whole and I for one am none too keen on revisiting it.

>>35996787
Sure. Make the orphanage based around actual age rather than biological age.

>>35996816
Actually, just have them continue working at the factory part of the orphanage until they can find employment elsewhere.

There's no need to keep them in the dorms with the other kids at that point, and the beds will likely be too small anyway.

>>35996793
So you're introducing gunpowder now? I thought you didn't want that?

>>35996816
so more chronological

ok that would raise coast across the board also the age to be considered an adult is 15

>>35996288
well you are reading this on 4chan no matter how cutie or happy things, can go dark... so very dark. also edgy.

>>35996356
I just want to make sure we tell Lyann to keep leveling slave class, and trust us on it.
>>35996692
so levle up in Alchemist?

>>35996793
Saltpeter? dam blasting mines her we go

>>35996855
just not more effective than magic/bows here so we didn't bother

Casting multiple dragonforces is trivial for us. Just cast one of our 6k damage elemental spells with HP, while the sword is set to MP drain.

>>35996855
Saltpeter is only a component. It has other uses, manufacture of gunpowder is only one of them. All we gotta do is not mix it with sulfur, charcoal, and ammonia in the proper ratio.

Keep the recipe in our heads though. If we get a full on demonic incursion that threatens to wipe out all other sentient life it'll be handy. Dakka is our "oh shit" button, if enough demons show up to make us go "oh shit!" we make with the secrets of BLAM! Otherwise no plans to make it just yet.

>>35996848
>sounds good.
Seems like we may be making gun powder soon anyhow.
So we could likely set up more factories. Profit more. We will need skilled workers for this.(Dwarfs) But we can give each dwarf 1-2 apprentices. From the orphanage, giving them a skill to learn and keep them out of poverty for life.
Would be nice to try and set up public schools for the orphans. But I may see it as a problem..the commoners will be less educated than the orphanage. And just start commoners will just start leaving kids at the orphanage. Or I may just be reading to much into it..

>>35996855
I mentioned that firearms would adjust to the same damage rules as everything else, so an assault rifle would only do about 25 damage or so, but saltpeter has other uses, such as toothpaste, food preservative, and more importantly for peaceful but fun uses, fireworks.

We ARE about to celebrate our birthday after all

>>35996793
We talk with Okaba and borrow his lab equipment for a little bit... yes, this could work.

It's not going to be ready for our birthday party that night, but we could probably make firecrackers and, eventually, even fireworks.

Wouldn't it be nice to celebrate the end of the war with fireworks? And of course, they can be used as signals during night battles.

"Have you seen the count lately?" ~asks us Okaba while looking at us work
"No. But it's not as if I'm looking around for him. Why?"
"He has been absent as of late. I haven't seen miss Dawn, either."

Meanwhile, Aura and Lyann are eating apples together while they talk and exchange notebooks by the door. Aura hugs herself and sways her body to a side and the other.

She looks like quite the schoolgirl.

"That reminds me, have you made any progress tracking where the mana goes after those spiders syphon it off?"
"Yes, somewhere at the edge of town, actually. I could show you tomorrow, if you want."

He was unlikable to begin with and we can figure out how to replicate this tech by ourselves.

>>35996907
We really shouldn't be too reliant on the sword. Sure it's bad ass and gives us a huge edge, but having backups in case drama dictated shenanigans plot to part us from it at some point is a good idea. That said yeah, mana storage isn't a big concern when Eldric has the Sword of Omens. If we can ever combine DF and Wind Roar into a single strike we should just call the attack 'ExCaliblast' and blow up a fortress with it.

>>35996991
Enchanted bullets and powder, snipe a fucker from beyond the horizon. Science bitch!

But no need to introduce those just yet. They have crossbows here right? That's good enough for now. The secrets of dakka will remain so until it becomes a must.

And go check it out, the count needs people like us to mellow him out.

After a while, we go with Okaba and Aura to pick up the rest of our friends, but they've already left for our home.

"Uhmm... should we take along the carriage? to make a properly stylish entrance, I mean" ~suggests Okaba
"Ah... let's not. I somehow feel like it is something to use mostly on longer trips, you know?"
"As you wish"

While we walk with our friend, discussing uses for the saltpeter, Lyann and Aura giggle behind us.

Indeed, our house is brightly litm and as soon as we approach, Elli, who was waiting by the door, eeps and runs into the house, holding her skirt out of the way.

It's a cute sight. Getting her a long and cutesy maid outfit was a great investment, really.

Shortly after, a river of our friends comes out. Ami and Mai have little trouble picking us up while Stella follows after us, wagging her tail, and we get carried inside towards our party.

"Happy birthday!" ~Everyone is at the party. Even Hardkil, whom we hadn't seen for a while.

With the war about to end with the victory of the Coalition, uncle Danren seems to have decided he could openly show up, so he too is at the party.

Everyone dances with us, in turns. or at leasts gives us a handshake and a gift of some kind.

Dad couldn't come, of course, but he had writen a letter and asked our godfather to give it to us during our birthday.

We even got a gift from cousin Alard and uncle Wolfric, all the way from Eopolis, whom we haven't even meet yet.

If you want to know, cousin alard sent us a high quality swordbelt, and our uncle sent us a cape. It's ... a tad too big for us right now, but its a very high quality item of clothing.

The cloak comes with a brooch, and it has the family shield. We hadn't seen it before. It looks like a very simple design. A simple circle with a ring inside it, the words "See the world not as it is, but as it should be" have been engraved outside the circle.

Mom explains the our uncle added the words as his wish for us. The brooch is split in Ebon black, over which the words are engraved, a silver ring, and a white circle, which represents our family's purpose as stewards. protecting all that in our charge against whatever evils may come.

The brooch is its own, slotless magic item. It must have been expensive.

[Runic][Eldric's Brooch]
A custom-made gift for the youngest boy of the Lightbringer family
Bonus: Contingency~ The brooch can store a single spell at the time, along with some specific trigger conditions for it. Spell Currently Stored: Raise. Conditions for triggering it: Death

Well, there was no way our uncle could know we already have an Angel's Ring. It's a very considerate gift, and we can certainly make use of it, replacing the Raise spell with something else.

Besides, even if the cloak is too big right now, we can still use the brooch with pretty much any shirt or clothing.

The party goes on, and at the end, just Mako and her shadows are left.

Mako walks over to us

"C-can I... " ~she looks at us and then looks away, blushing
"Can I give you a kiss?" ~dubs Mai from behind, Mako. She does a pretty good Mako imitation
"Eeep!" ~ Mako goes bright red, and covers her pretty face with both hands
"I'd be honored"

Only, instead, Eldric gives her a kiss on her hands, softly. She lowers her hands as if they had been burnt and hides them, then realizes that leaves her face exposed. She's bright red

Her shadows encourage her

After a bit, she gives Eldric a little kiss on the cheek, then runs out, bright red. Of course, Ami and Mai run after her, waving us bye bye

There's also an invitation letter from our uncle to visit him this summer. Well, maybe.

Mom catches and hugs us as much as she feels like it before we go to bed.

It was a pretty great day.

The following morning...

"Wh~ " ~ah, this softness that's squished against Eldric's face... these two silky soft mountains... this is Zoe, right?

Right. Our lion sister crawled into bed with us at some point.

Well, it's a nice way to start the day, surely enough.

The morning goes on pleasantly enough, and after lunch, we head out of the city together with Okaba and Aura.

Should we take someone else along? and if so, who? Lyann. Okaba and Aura, plus us, its 4 people
*Mako and one of her shadows, the other can just be around for an emergency

I know right? Gil always calls people mongrel, it just doesn't sound right for him to call the lesser people anything else. And I never heard of this "Justicar" book, is it any good?

>>35997998
We need more Mako, such a sweet and pretty little resurrection factory. Too bad we have to get her to cry to get that. And the brooch, can it store a dragonforce?

***

Well, together with Okaba, we head out of the city. There's a small glade there.

"This is it. The mana is gathering somewhere ahead" ~announces Okaba, and removes his bat-winged (succubi-winged?) googles.

We invited Mako and Ami. Mai is lurking around on stealth.

Going into the glade, the mana is now so thick we can see it as a fine myst everywhere. There is a crystal array in the middle of the glade.

It looks like a large crystal, floating in the middle of five crystal spikes that emerge from the floor.

Asmund if standing next to it, apparently taking notes, while Dawn is nowhere in sight.

"What an interesting crystal. This is a vast improvement on the traditional mana crystals, is it not?" ~says Okaba

Asmund looks over towards our group, and sighs

"Maybe for you, but for my family, this is a fairly traditional crystal array, really"
"Right"
"Can I ask what brings you here?"
"Would you believe me if I said we were simply worried for you?" ~says Okaba as he approaches the crystal array
"I would like to."

"So, what are you doing here, or is it just as it seems?" ~asks Eldric
"Honestly? I'm trying to catch Dawn. You may remember I mentioned she's not a regular succubi, right? she has sporadic episodes where she loses herself and tends to attack the largest source of mana around to try and drain it. I believe our father was trying to breed the ability to act as walking mana crystals into the family."

>>35998378

Lyanns mana crystal should look like a huge pack of sugar to Dawn then.

>>35998528
Aww shit you're right... Well, nothing to worry about too much. We've leveled her quite a bit, she knows how to handle herself. Dawn goes for her delicious mana she'll just slap her shit into unconsciousness and ask what the hell happened.

"So what, you are just trying to lure her in, like with a bug zapper?"
"I suppose... what's a bug zapper, anyway?"
"It doesn't really matters. Is Dawn dangerous right now?"
"Well, she won't kill you, but you'll be drained dry." ~says Asmund
"It is harmless, but quite annoying, and it will take several days for a normal person to replenish its mana after using it all." ~Right, so similar to having shot a full power dragonforce
"So, how are you planning on catching her?"
"Sadly, right now she won't be very rational at all, so there will be some violence when she does show up."
"Does this happen a lot?"
"About once a year. I'm studying a way to channel mana directly into her. That should keep her impulses under control." ~the count says
"Right. If she thirsts for mana, simply keeping her inner reserves maxed out at all times should keep her calm." ~says Okaba as he peeks into Asmund's notes
"I see you understand the idea. Yes. I am worried it may create a dependency on her, however. An addiction, so to speak."

"So, you aren't trying to suck the town dry?" ~asks Lyann
"Not really. I'm more interested in channeling the wasted ambient mana into Dawn. This town is nowhere near big enough to supply enough mana for my.. other purposes."

"And how to you propose we catch your wayward succubi?" ~asks Okaba
"Sadly, until I succeed on these adjustments, the only option is violence. I have a scroll of resurrection with me, so either knock her down or take her down, then use the scroll on her."

"That's good to know, because I can tell someone's approaching!" ~says Ami

I doubt that'll be necessary. One of our normal 6k damage elemental bolts should finish her off just fine.

>>35998830
I wonder if we can do this without killing her. King, any way to deal subdual damage? If we can, stone or Ice cubes and spheres fired en mass to the dome should do the trick. Besides, we have the magical means to do a mongrel version of Gil's favorite trick right?

"What will happen if we just pour spells into her?" ~asks Okaba
"It would take a huge amount of mana to satisfy her. I have about three thousands or so in the crystal right now. It won't be enough"
"How much would it take?"
"About five thousand"
"Eldric?" ~Okaba looks at us
"Let's do it"

As Dawn flies towards us, its clear she's not her usual self. Also, the differences between her and a normal succubi are more obvious right now.

To begin with, her wings are feathered. And right now, she looks completely black. Not just her skin, but her clothes as well, and even the air around her.

It's as if she's sucking in light.

She goes straight for the crystal array... then switches towards Lyann.

Well, Lyann's crystal has about 20k mana right now. That's four times as much as we need.

Still, gathering all that mana took a lot of time.

Okaba, Asmund and us starts blasting her with spells, as does Lyann. It doesn't seems to have any effect on the DFC succubi, other than giving her an actual bust size...

"Is this exalted? is she storing her motes there?" ~asks our inner fa/t g/uy

Well, Lyann's debuffs don't seem to have an effect either, as Dawn just absorbs them as soon as she casts them, and Dawn starts stripping Lyann's clothes off as she looks for the crystal that she feels the redhead has (in her item box) without being able to find it.

Its... it's not a bad sight

*Tell Lyann to give her the crystal
*Just keep filling Dawn's tank

>>35999483
>*Just keep filling Dawn's tank
If we cast from hp, does that count as mana? It should only take us 9 rounds to fill her up in that case.

>>35999483

"Why is she not going for the mana array!?" ~cries out Asmund
"Lyann's mana crystal has almost 18k mana already!"
"...alright!"

Dawn pins down Lyann and kisses her as she starts draining her mana away, her bust size slowly but visibly increasing as we pour more and more mana into her.

Even when Lyann is dry, Dawn keeps trying to find the crystal that she can sense in her, to no avail.

After a few minutes, she calms down when we finish filling her seemingly endless mana reserves.

"Dawn, are you alright?" ~Asmund rushes over to her. The succubi has gona back to her normal skin color, and looks quite happy. Her figure is also quite explosive at the moment

Of course, Eldric goes over and helps Lyann up. Our dear sister is sleeping, exhausted after having been completely emptied from every little bit of mana she had.

Well, at least noone's hurt

"If it took all three of us, how much mana CAN she store?" ~asks Okaba
"A little over five thousand." ~says Asmund~ "It's been growing over the years"
"That's quite interesting. Would you like help in developing a safe procedure to connect her to your mana array?"
"I thought you said you wouldnt help"
"I'm not going to help you become king until ~you~ know what will happen afterwards, but helping a girl is a completely different thing."
"...thankyou"

Of course we have no idea what a 18k mana binge might do to her. Nothing , get sick or worse.

>>36000041

>>36000041

Well, nobody was hurt, thankfully. Lyann did develop something like a phobia towards Dawn that will haunt her for years, tho. And of course, a natural prankster, Dawn will try to rub and cuddle against her at every possible occasion.

Well, Asmund is quite grateful for the help. In the months to follow, he works closely with Okaba, who takes the chance to engage the count in discussions about politics and government.

Life goes on nicely enough. We continue studying, and visiting the dungeons together with our friends.

[Chaos Crusher], the Coalition's new flagship, is launched, together with a small fleet of skyships, and their intervention marks the end of the war. An armistice is declared a few months after that, and dad finally comes home.

I wonder what the 36 millions post was. Anyway...
***

Dad arrives on a warm spring day. He's walking down the road instead of riding his steed.

Elli is the first to see him. Our cutesy elf maid was humming softly as she trimmed the bush walls by the entrance, dressed in the cutesy uniform Eldric got her as a gift, while Athena walks around on the grass nearby, chasing after a bright red ball.

",,,!" ~she spots Cedric approaching, and tears up. She leaps over the fence, and runs over to hold his hands~ "Master, welcome home!"
"Thank you." ~he smiles at her warmly, and pats her head gently~ "Have you been well?"
"Master!" ~she cries as she hugs him, sinking her face on his chest
"Elli, i'm still wearing my armor, doesn't that hurt? Elli..." ~he sighs, and caresses her back and head, gently

By the time we arrive from school later that day, dad is outside playing with Athena. Well, they haven't seen eachother much, so it's just right that they spend as much time together now as they can.

We took our time since the twins are soon to arrive any day now. This world doesn't give motherhood licenses, albeit mom already explain at the university that she will take a year when the babies are born.

We insisted on it, actually. We have more than enough money to take care of the house finances, after all.

As mom and dad see eachother. They quietly approach and kiss, then dad takes her hands and says "I'm home"

"Welcome home, dear."

That night, we had a simple but abundant meal. Uncle Dan was invited, but retired early.

Dad came back right on time, it seems. A week later, mom gives birth to our two newest siblings, a boy and a girl.

Going with family tradition, they are named Elysia and Fredrick, which means "Flower" and "Peaceful Ruler", respectively.

"Let us hope this peace lasts for long enough that this name is fitting" ~says dad as he holds Fredrick in his hands.

A few days later, Elli prepares a large meal, and once everyone has had her fill, confesses her feelings for dad.

Well, mom is stunned. She has a expresionless, unreadable face.

Dad is also cold, if only for a few moments...

"Ellizabeth" ~he says~ "I am grateful for your feelings, but I have always thought of you as an older daughter." ~he says while standing up

"P-please don't say that, master Cedric! I... mistress, I'm sorry! I love master, I-" ~she says as she tears up

~sighs~ "So, in the end, you did say it." ~says mom.~ "Dear, won't you accept her feelings?"

Dad looks at mom with a truly astonished expression.

"I've known for a time that Elli loves you. Honestly? I thought she would confess before you left for the war, but..."

Dad looks at mom. She looks calm, and is smiling softly. Then he looks at Elli, and gently caresses her head.

"I am truly blessed, Ellizabeth. Are you truly fine with being my second wife?"

"Oh master, mistress, thankyou!" ~the elf girl cries as she hugs dad

It's still one guy saying that he's glad a segment of voters weren't involved in this vote. That sentiment is supportive of gerrymandering.

>>36000892
No, we did it when we were nine. It was just last year, and Athena was old enough to pull on Elli's ears afterwards.

>>36000908
Welp, we gotta get those ageless amulets for mom and dad soon. Then work on the better versions that are actual agelessness and not this d&d bullshit.

can you pleas have eldric give dad shit and then put to vote to claim the girls as our future wives

>>36001031
Immortality? I've had enough with this BULLSHIT. We are talking about AGELESSNESS. Immortality is when it is impossible to be killed.

>>36001031
>elf lifespan is on the order of 1000 years
>human lifespan is on the order of 100 years

Yeah, not like the current situation will end in tragedy or anything.

>>36001061
I thought we had this discussion already, and that agelessness was already defined as not aging but still having a finite lifespan.

Personally I want unlimited lifespan and ageless, but I appear to be in the minority.

I must be thicker than I'd like to admit. I honestly haven't noticed a big distinction between people today and tomorrow. I know we seem to have more people on fridays, but I haven't noticed strong differences between then and now, otherwise

>>36000908
A couple of weeks later, Elli married dad. Somehow, there were no great changes at home. Elli moved to the 2nd floor, to one of the larger, empty rooms. She kept referring to mom as mistress or miss, and she kept calling us young master. She did start calling dad by his given name, but other than that, she seems quite happy to continue her life just as it had been going this far.

She is still our cutesy elf maid, and happily wears the clothes we had made for her. But she's also our mom, now.

Also, dad looks ridiculously happy, and somewhat tired, nowadays. Perhaps we should get him a energy drink, or something.

Oh, and apparently, different species are not compatible without the blessing of the gods, so unless dad and Elli specifically request for it, it looks like we won't be having any cute siblings with pointy ears.

Well, a lot of things happened this year. It was a peaceful, but also very, very eventful year.

With summer vacations approaching, now we have an array of choices

*Stay home this year, hit the dungeons hard
*Go to Opal city again, take Lyann, Zoe and Stella (maybe Athena too?) so dad and our moms have the house to themselves
*Go to visit uncle Wolfric in Eopolis, finally get to meet grandpa
*Other

>>36001061
Why fear the reaper man so much? I'm all for extending the time limit, I myself would love to be around 200 instead of the 80 I'm likely to get, but stopping the clock entirely and only dying by violence or disease and the like just feels wrong somehow.

Would enough time have passed for us to finish learning shaman and start on thief? Along with Mako and Okaba, of course.

>>36001172
*Go to visit uncle Wolfric in Eopolis, finally get to meet grandpa

I'd like to hit the dungeons but we're pretty solidly OP as fuck as it is that we can take the time to visit family first.

>>36001181
You can always take the amulet off/remove the curse once you're ready to start aging again. So that argument is pretty flimsy. The ability to choose when you'll enter your twilight years is infinity superior to not having the ability to choose. Old age including senility and the breakdown of your body sucks.

>>36001172
*Other
Go visit Uncle Wolfric with Lyann, Stella, Zoe, and Athena.
Gives dad and moms a chance to have the house to themselves, and our relatives get to meet our side of the family.
Also bring along Beastmen sisters will let us gauge how racist our family can be.

>>36001172
>>36001283

It's actually a good chance for the Lightbringer family to go on a family Dungeon Delve. Eldric can even explain the mechanics of gitan gud from a meta standpoint to them.

Lyann, Zoe, Stella, Athena.

Definitly Lynn, Zoe and stella. Lets try invite Mako and the shadows, Okaba and Aura, Asmund and Dawn, and heck Honoria.

>>36001361
Lyann Zoe Stella Mako Ami Mai Okaba and Arura

>>36001440
and see if okaba wants to come

>>36001441
I'm getting more than a little frustrated that we've repeatedly asked to level up the family and grumnir and absolutely nothing has occured.

>>36001441
We could invite Brass and Co too just to have some reliable obviously strong looking types to help on the road. We should take the spare Coach unless we can arrange travel via Rock It ship to see the new fleet.

>>36001441
Take Athena as well. She's old enough to be running around, and we can hire a nanny for our time in Eopolis.
It'll be good for her to be seen by our other relatives, and this will be a chance to level her Int so she can start speaking earlier.

>>36001172

>Go to visit uncle Wolfric in Eopolis, finally get to meet grandpa

Can we bring our sisters with us, to introduce everyone to our family and meet everyone before returning to school?

>>36001195
More this, I was mostly worried bout some of the occasional shitflinging on contenscious votes. Takes the whole threads time

>>36001476
I agree, we've been working on it and have had no indication that it's been done.

>>36001441
yes and just them we shouldn't really bring more than family.

don't think we should invite others doesn't seem right its a family vacation

>>36001476
It's partly due to the back to back time skips. TKoAND is more interested in cuddle times than grindy times usually and we're at the point where it'd take a plot armor enhanced threat or hidden boss to challenge us anyway so normal leveling is already falling to the background. Hopefully it can happen off screen.

>>36001476
I always assume we are giving them exp in the background during those time skips, dont worry

>>36001510
I was going to propose this, but I think she's too small to be apart from dad and mom for an extended period, plus she needs to spend more time with dad, dont you think?
>>36001566
Its being done on the background.

Which reminds me, is the kind anon that helps update the sheets, around?

>>36001592
Yup, I'm here.

>>36001361
Have we been sitting on our ass all these months doing nothing?
What about dungeon diving to level up our family and friends?

Do we need to specifically outline what gets done during these months, otherwise they get wasted by us doing nothing?

>>36001592
>plus she needs to spend more time with dad, dont you think?
No, I don't think so. She'll get to spend more time with him the rest of the year since she's not enrolled in school yet, and won't be enrolled for another few years.
On the other hand summer vacation only happens once a year for this short time and it's the only time that dad gets alone time with the moms.

>>36001620
We've been leveling up as normal as indicated by the answers to "can we have raised X during time skip?" all being "yes". We don't do specific projects since it seems school and grinding takes up most of our time during them. I hope we got Fireworks figured out by now though.

>>36001714
I've been anal about requesting those because we have almost all the t1 jobs unlocked. It's not quite the same as grinding, though, as this training simply takes time and not xp.

>>36001513
>More this, I was mostly worried bout some of the occasional shitflinging on contenscious votes
That's still hoping for a voting segment to not have a chance to vote.
It's the same as me wanting you and Qurldox to not have a chance to vote or for your votes to not matter.

>>36001613
Alright, can I dump on you the exp we have been getting off screen to calm people down a bit? would normally say this at the end of the thread, but I guess now is good.

Let me see...
260 x 1530
190 x 1830
120 x 2030
50 x 2230
1 x 3320
1x 3520
1x 4030

This exp would be what we got this year off screen. I leave its spread to your discresion, but I imagine it would be mostly eldric and lyann, obviously, followed by Mako, who yes, finally punched a zenite to death, ami, mai, okaba, aura, grummir, miiyau... and I dont know if we are still taking Ardkill along? Give some to Athena too, I think, at least 1/20 of it. If we give her levels in singer she just gets buffs so even if shes small and a baby, its not like shes going to burn things down. Also, Lyann's mana crystal now has 23115MP, if anyone wants to know.

>>36001768
Can I assume we also took mom and elli or at least put them in the party while we got them enough xp to unlock all their nomad/villager/noble jobs?

>>36001705
Taking a toddler on a cross country trip without their parents is pretty irresponsible hired nurse or no. Leave her with the folks, she's too young to really be able to remember much from this upcoming trip and there's no go reason to drag her along. Cedric will probably take the family to see his old man eventually anyway. For now let's not bring our baby sister into a land where religious fanatics stalk anyone with our last name and hound them to the point of self exile.

>>36001881
Not very high. Our punch only does 214 damage.

>>36001874
i have the biggest and most cheesiest grin because you posted that pic

>>36001881
A level 30 insect type monster, since those have the lowest hp per level. Lots of PDV and status debuffs as attacks, tho, and normally come with other monsters.

I guess they would be the "dancer" of the mobs?

>>36001910
We should make that a pet project. Something to work on when we're helping newbs git gud and raise their T1 Jobs. It'd be nice if we could develop passive skills for training people. Maybe a Drill Sergeant or Instructor Job?

Anyway, even if we invited Asmund, there's too many Sbastian agents in Eopolis so he would refuse. He would be somewhat surprised we invited him, but would refuse

We trade letters with uncle Wolfric, who says he will be happy to welcome us and our friends, and wants to send one of the skyships to pick us up.

Now that it is peace time, the skyships have been mostly repurposed as border patrol duty (in the south), but there are three which are doing regular round trips on the Bastion -> Black Lake -> Opal -> Eopolis -> Sbastia -> Bastion route, so we can go to Opal city, pay our respects to the dwarven king, and then take a skyship going straight to Eopolis from the newly built docks on the mountainside.

This also helped with the mail, which means letters now come and go regularly, instead of relying on wandering nomad tribes. At least among Coalition cities.

Black Lake is taking some hits on luxury trade, since valuable and rare goods are being ferried by skyship instead of riveboats nowadays, but the bulk of their income always came from exporting technomancy devices, so they are slowly but surely recovering.

It is an odd thing. The trip to nearby Opal will take us three days, but going to (relatively) far Eopolis will just be 2 once we board the ship.

The dwarf king is happy to see us, and goes with us to inspect the brand new skydocks.

>>36002097
Yeah, I'm just gonna lower her share to like 1/100 so she can get her singer class up to 20 with some change and not become terror baby, destroyer of worlds.

>>36002158
Can't wait till we old enough to drink. I wonder how good dwarven beer is. I imagine it to be of craft grade or better, and slinging beers back with the dwarven king is always a good thing. Dwarf beer, elven wine, and human spirits, truly fantasy land is a paradise for the alcohol connoisseur.

>>36002218
Now that we've introduced refrigeration and the idea of chilling alcohol, it is.

>>36002218
not only that we gave the dwarfs a way to cool their beer so Eldrics the patron saint of beer to the dwarfs

>>36002265

We need to sing this song while getting drunk for the first time. It'll be a hit song amongst dwarves.

>>36002158
So, an idle question, what does 553 melee skill even mean?

File: school mako.jpg (465 KB, 1605x2000)

By the way, why did you guys wanted the flagship to be called chaos crusher? Personally im just happy it isin't the Litany of Fury

>>36002158
Incidentally, since we have a day left until the ship arrives to pick us up, the dwarf king wants to know if we could teach his courtmage how to build their own beer coolers.

Now that there's peacetime, the dwarves feel it would be a great business to start exporting their chilled beer to the rest of the coalition. The king promises us a 5% share of the profits for the next hundred years.

Well, if they just researched the coolers they already have, they would figure it out on their own, eventually, so this way we still get something out of it.

The following day, we board the "Skyfire Queen", a "light cruiser" type which has been repurposed to transport mail, luxury goods, passengers and mail among the Coalition cities, aiding immensely in the efforts to get all its nations together.

A trip which would take a month, not takes a couple of days, and one which would give material for a small saga, it's now a three week trip in a luxury cabin.

Consequently,(luxury) goods are now flowing much more freely from market to market.

The "Skyfire Queen" docks slowly. Passengers an goods begin descending from it, being unloaded safely to the skydock.

The ship will be checked and go through minor maintenance for an evening, so we can either go to our cabins and unpack with time.

The captain, a winged Majin, welcomes us on board the ship. After he reads our documents, he seems quite excited.

As it turns out, dad and uncle Wolfric did indeed sign up the business to us, effective from our 15th birthday onward, so the Skyfury Queen is technically ours, or will be in five years.

We are assigned to the best cabin, a room where 20 troopers used to bunk together during the war, so it is quite spacious.

The Bastion furniture of ironwood is nailed to the floor, and the glasses and mugs are noticeably wider at the base, but other than that, it looks like a luxury room on a high class inn.

We have our own bath, albeit showers are limited to once per day to save supplies.

Our sisters pretty much take over the room, so we saved some 6g on tickets.

Well, its still a repurposed military ship and not a luxury cruiser, so there's no such thing as deck games or events. Then again, the seas, too, are quite dangerous, so there probably isin't such a thing as a luxury cruiser to begin with.

Honoria is sharing room with Mako and her shadows, by the way.

That evening, the ship leaves for Eopolis, and we are off. We have bad experiences with flying vehicles, so perhaps the sense of dread that seems to take over us almost right away shouldnt surprise us

"Eldric, are you alright?" ~Zoe cuddles with Eldric, hugging him gently as she caresses his hair
"Ah... yes, I just..."
"It is rather scary, right?" ~says Stella as she kneels on the floor to look out the window, just barely peeking over its edge, even tho there's a thick glass on it.
"It's magic, it will be alright" ~says Eldric, trying to convince himself~ "No such thing as mechanical malfunction"

A sailor walks down the aisle, announcing that the meal will be served soon, and that the passengers can come out of their cabins now.

As we are enjoying our meal, one of the passengers comments...

"Th-there's... something on the wing. Some... thing?"

One of the sailors peeks out, and nods. "That's an imp, they like hitching rides with us. I'll let security know before it starts scratching the paint off."

Thankfully, nothing happens. It feels somewhat odd to sleep on a bed while traveling. Travel by ship was completely out of fashion in our world already, except for luxury cruisers.

Compared to airplanes in our old world, a large room, our own private bathroom, and 3 lovely girls wanting to cuddle all night with us would be far beyond super first class, after all.

At some point in the night, Mako wanders over towards our room.

She's carrying an Eldric plushie, and looking quite adorable in her fluffy pajamas. Really, she's a princess. Saying that she looks princess-like would be obvious.

"Eldric, it's scary." ~she says softly when we invite her in

*Invite her to spend the night in our cabin

*Other

>>36003150

>*Invite her to spend the night in our cabin
to cute to deny

>>36003037
A ring with a Feather Fall enchantment issued to all crew and marine compliments, and enchanted vests for passengers. For the military version we could also include some minor HP or MDV boost as well.

But for that we would need a workshop full of high level Smiths or Crasftsmen.
Unless you just want to research the spell and then let the militaries and businesses make their own investments in fabricating the items; I don't believe the concept of licensing fees has been widely introduced to this world.

>>36003150

>reliable easily spread long distance communication
The problem is that's more in the realm of mechanical and electrical engineers, not chemical engineers.

We could go with a golem-powered semaphore system, though the mechanical aspects would take us a while.

We could do telegraphs, assuming we remember how to build telegraph or telephones.

We could skip straight to radios, if we remembered how to make one.

It comes down to what we remember, and we've been letting our mind and memories not be challenged much for 10 years now.

>>36003375
We have the voice to texting magic item Okaba has been studying. Reverse engineering and applying what we learn from that is probably a more reliable step than replicating the tech in our world. Think more along the lines of Magi-tech than straight engineering.

>>36003150
*Invite her to spend the night in our cabin

>>36003443
Its still limited to a person who is in your party. Ideally the enchantment should be placed on terminals that connect to an enchanted mainframe.
Party-only would be good for an emergency use, such as enchanting earrings with it, or when dungeoning, but not for mass consumption.

The original its much more obviously a man in a suit, but it is somehow also much more creepy than the more fantastic looking devil from the remake

***

Of course, Ami and Mai came along with the little princess

They are wearing their usual clothes. When do these two sleep? we've seen them take catnaps plenty of times, but they seem to be always at the ready around Mako, otherwise

That night, Ami and Mai improvise a courtain between Mako and us in bed. Well, that's probably the absolute minimum, right?

"Eldric?" ~she says softly
"Yes?"
"Is this ship really fast?"
"Yes, it is"
"really really fast?"
"Yes, it really is."
"...could I go home on it? I miss my sister"

Well... we can't just comandeer the ship right now.

"Yes. One day, I would like to see your home"
"Alright" ~she sounds much happier now

The next day, it's a rather surprising morning since, despite sharing the bed with six girls, you have little problem actually getting up. Uh... well, the girls probably behaved because Mako is there

During breakfast in the messhall, Okaba comments to use about how he spent a fair amount of time looking at the Rock-it runic clusters along the ship.

"I think I have a fairly good idea in how to make those flying boards you wanted." ~he informs us while caressing Aura's head~ "But wouldnt a harness be safer?"
"It wouldn't be the same"

A few hours later, Eopolis comes into view...

Eopolis, the "City of Wind", its the largest city in the northern continent, housing well over 5 million people, an achievement and milestone for the region.

Organized as a series of rings built surrounding an ancient, vast ancient fortress known as Lightkeep (or Lightholme) by the locals.

The city has plenty of buildings 5 floors or taller, yet it spreads so far in every direction, than even from the skyship, you can't spot two of its borders.

A true river of people seems to flow in and out of the city as you descend enough to notice, with several dozens of ships in the harbor.

Perhaps unsurprisingly, the Skyfire Queen it's approaching from the sea, and lands on the waters before the city for its final approach, docking in the harbors like a regular ship.

The docks of Eopolis are the door to the continent, and as such, the docks are quite vast. You can see several carriages waiting for the passengers of the Skyfury Queen, lined up away from the salt water.

Well, the passengers are all the wealthy type, after all, and reaching the exits of the docks would be quite a while.

As you descend and look around, you are suddenly attacked by a winged shadow!

"Ohgodsyoumustbetheyoungmaster, right!?youarejustlikeyourdad, ohwowyou'readorableIcould ustgobbleyouup, ah! yousmellsonice!"

Ah... this soft sensation... this is something we know pretty well, really.

"Euphrosyne Zaytseva!" ~comes a more imposing voice from somewhere in the crowd~ "Behave properly, for the love of the gods!"

>5 million people
Wow. that is WAY bigger than Manhattan.

>>36004236
is it? babylon is said to have had about 7-12 millions and it was an ancient city

>>36004264
One is a may or may not have existed city. One is the MOST famous Metropolis (New York, Manhattan is a borough) with ~8 million people

>>36004264
Heck, even freaking Ancient Rome (the city) had about 1 million people. I seriously doubt any number in the millions.

>>36004264
Actually 7 million does kind of make sense... NVM. I was just expecting the population in the vicinity of 2-3 million, but 7 million is certainly doable.

But Babylon if it existed definitely did not have even a million people.

Generally, for a city that sized it would be a pretty well spread out metropolis, without any buildings above 4 floors.

Sustaining it would be a challenge of water delivery and waste removal. I say magic.

Must be almost a hundred foodungeons however, some must be farmed down 10 levels or so.

Well, somebody is happy to see us.

>>36004215

Well, we just landed and we have a girl smoothering us already.

Our sisters and friends are just staring, with varying reactions.

"But Tapac, just look at him! isin't he adorable!?" -we get lifted off our feet with surprising ease, and held like a puppy for "Tapac" to get a look at us

As it turns out, Tapac Zaytseva is our family's butler. A bona fide "retired god" that has been taking care of our family for several dozens of generations. He looks like a strong man in his 80s, dry and straight like an oak. He is dressed in what we easily recognize as a british-style butler's uniform, complete from top to bottom.

"Young master Eldric, I presume?" ~he says while bowing at a perfect 45° at the waist.

"Ah! yes! Could I be placed on the floor, please?"

Euphrosyne Zeytseva, or "Euphry" is Tapac's daughter. She is a self-declared valkyrie, maid, and our nanny for the length of our stay.

"Euphrosyne, please place the young lord down, now" ~says our butler
"Aww! can't I carry him a little longer? he's just so huggable, just like his dad at his age!"
"No"

We are finally able to feel the floor again

Looking at them...
<Euphrosyne Zaytseva>
<??? Ginaz Swordmaster, ??? Noble>

<Tapac Zaytseva>
<??? Dreadnought ??? Noble>

Just... what? that's the first time...
...just how high does someone's level has to be before it shows up as ???, in this world?

"Young lord, please call me Euphry, alright?" ~the valkyrie says with a smile as she kneels in front of us, so she's looking slightly up at us
"Please do not indulge her, sir. Her proper name is Euphrosyne. This way, please" ~our butler gestures towards the waiting carriages

Is it the old "3 Question marks = 3 digits" trick?
