Did he think that being a vampire was dirty? Not really. In fact, after the explanation that the priest had given, Rezar would be lying today he was not at all overly eager to complete the vampire Racial quest and become that which once held all of Elysium sway.
But he had to make himself seem unenthusiastic, because the priest who for some reason is also named priest was a little to...involved. Vampires were dangerous, then there's that death artifact called the Necron, it seems like a really sensitive subject for Priest, so Rezar wanted to avoid him having his eyes on himself, even though he was pretty sure that by asking those questions, he had already raised a bunch of flags.
Either way he was going to try his best to complete the vampire Racial quests, since the world wouldn't accept him for who he is, and would look for opportunities to try and make his life miserable, then he was going to embrace the roles they had given and forced him to play, the power they were afraid of he was going to cultivate it, and make sure he's strong enough to be above the prejudice of Elysium.
"are you heading to the Spire now? Don't you think you need to rest a bit more, you've just been through an incredible ordeal you know." Priest said to him in a soft tone.
"You mean to say it's too early to show my face to the crowd of people that just tried to have my lynched, dancing on the strings of an asshole who murdered their friends and family for reasons we don't exactly know of. It would be better if you just tell me as it is, rather than beat around the bush." Rezar said to Priest as carried Cowardly mole and placed him back into the sack he had used in carrying it before.
"Don't you think it would be Awkward? I mean it's a little too early to show your face to these group of people, they all probably feel really stupid for what they did, and seeing you would just remind them of that, maybe you should try going tomorrow." In response Rezar opened the door to the room Priest had kept him and then turned around to say.
"First of all, how can you be a Priest named Priest! It makes no fucking sense! And also, I don't give a shit how they feel or think, I'm going to be living my own life now, and if anybody gets in my way, I'm going to fight back. I'll come see you tomorrow with the ores I need your help with, after that if you don't mind, can you come into the mine for my training? I really wouldn't want these people to know what we're up to." Priest shook his head in an exasperated sigh, and gave a nod of agreement before Rezar walked into the church from the side room, and then marched out.
Priest just kept on watching the young man as he left with purpose, being close to and experiencing death changes a lot of things in some people. But actually dying and then coming back to life? He could not even begin to fathom the degree of changes that Rezar has gone through. However he knew Rezar was probably now three times as strong, Elysium was balanced, with great risk came great Rewards, and he was pretty sure the rewards for dying and coming back to life would be fucking substantial. Rezar couldn't be played with again.
<<<<<<||>>>>>>
The moment Rezar left the church he was in full view of a lot of people. It has just been under about and hour since Priest had dragged his lifeless body into it, healing it along the way, and now here he was, in full view of them. Priest was right, this was extremely Awkward, even for Rezar.
Normally what would or should follow would be an apology, at the very most, this was the least they could do. But Rezar was still a cursed thing, a death class bad omen, so even if they had been totally and completely unfair to him, they couldn't bring themselves to say they were sorry. Rezar tried not to let it bother him as he walked past them and went on to the Spire, Screet had been following right behind him.
Normally he would be focusing on himself first, but he wanted to get Cowardly mole's evolution over with.
Just like before the same three options that Screet had received was there, but this time there was a fourth option, and it was likely what Rezar was going to chose, along with a new name for the mole…..Ward seems nice.
[Royalty: (Zombie Lord) Demon Mole-Queen| Magic, Power, Defense, Mental increased by 400%| Black Magic Mastery and Infection Carrier passive skill will be generated, Mind Rend, Telepathy, And Subjugation active skills will be generated.]
[Commencing Evolution, estimated time to completion. 15 days, 17 hours, 39 minutes and 4 seconds]
Guess this explains a lot about why cowardly mole was so cowardly. It was smarter than very other mole, and instead chose to attack from behind rather than going up against Rezar head to head like the other moles did. For one it was female, two it was a royal, which means this was the queen of Cavern moles or something like that.
Also there was the very obvious generation of active skills that showed that she would be more inclined to mind control, a general of sorts. But what Rezar noticed that she might be able to help him deliver clearer instructions to his other undead.
He also had to rethink the Ward name, it was just a shortened form of coward after all, and that didn't seem exactly fair to her. The sack on his back seemed a little bit lighter, but there wasn't much to it, She was undergoing her evolution and she won't be coming out any time soon. Rezar was sure he would have achieved quite a bit by the time she was done with her evolution, but be that as it may, it was time for his own evolution.
Rezar's growth could be considered to be quite rapid and this was in no small part attributed to the exp bonus he got due to the slave class, but that was just one piece of the puzzle, heck it was pieces he hasn't even used yet. Rezar knew his experiences so far, the fights, the things he tasted, did, dying, all those things made him stronger, proving truly that what doesn't kill you, will only make you stronger.
But never the less it was about time he leveled up his classes, he was missing a single combat class to raise to 25 along with necromancer to complete one of the missions in the vampire Racial change quest. He also had to raise two of his passive skills and two of his active skills to intermediate. After what happened today, Rezar was a little bit frantic and he wanted to quickly complete the quest and have more power under his control.
[Spend 790 normal exp and 625 battle exp to raise The Slave class to Intermediate Slave, The Miner Class to, Intermediate Miner, And the Apprentice Necromancer Class to Intermediate Necromancer]
[All classes Advanced.+ 6 to Magic,+ 6 power,+6 defense/ Power Strike (Miner), Siphon (Necromancer) Strengthen Undead(Necromancer) active skills generated/ Endurance (Slave) Identify Weak Point (Miner) passive skills generated.]
He plans to level them up some more, but before he does that, it would be best if he chose his second Combat class, and then spend all of the exp in hand at once. But before that can happen he had to choose a class, and luckily or unluckily for him, his options this time were more than last time. He had to pick from three classes, but the curve would be the fact that two of them are normal classes.
The first Was blacksmith, and the second was carpenter. Rezar had an ugly look on his face, he really wanted there to be more option this time, but this Spire seemed to love fucking with him. Luckily for him the third was a Combat class, and it seems it's not that simple.
{REAPER:(Legendary)The policemen of the living, their judge, their jury and their executioner! The power to decided life and death, and the drive to command the souls of the circle of reincarnation. +5 to speed,+3 to power,+ 5 to Magic every level.+ 5 skill points every three levels. Gain passive skills (See Sin) and unique weapon mastery (Chain Scythes)/ Gain active skills (Bind) and (Reap). }
[Reaper class has been chosen! You have gained + 3 to all stats for gaining a Legendary class.]
With great risk, came great Rewards, and after all of the bullshit he's gone through, this seems like quite the upgrade. But…..Rezar couldn't help the feeling that with this new class, the dangers he would have to face had increased. But that as the truth isn't it, the stronger you become, the more powerful your enemies are.
