Chapter 68: B020 – Reset Skills

It was nighttime when Pope Verkar IV was suddenly called from his rest in his private chamber.

Normally he would just scold and punish anyone who disturbs his rest, but his attitude went 180 degree when he heard it was a call request of a great donator. Especially if it was someone who donated a whooping 1 million.

So, he immediately went to meet this great donator, namely the little girl in front of him. She was a girl of about 12 or 13 years old wearing a set of Cantarian dresses. However, one should not judge a person by their appearance, especially if that person is a Player.

The fact that she was able to take out 1 million means that she wasn't just a normal little girl.

This kind of rich person is always welcome to the church!

Not to mention, her adorable appearance pleased his eyes and she was very well mannered.

Until now, Verkar had gotten used to the quirky and shameless behavior of the Players who liked to flatter the Natives, especially to an important person in the church like him. But, unlike those pesky Players, this little girl was calm and quiet.

She reminded Verkar of his grandson's daughter who was currently studied at Solstreus Magic Academy.

After having a light chat with her, he guided the girl to the Ritual Room without any difficulty.

"Miss Hecate, do you bring the items needed for the recalibration ceremony?"

"Of course, here is it."

The little girl, Hecate, swept her hands through the air and materialized 10 dark purple glowing stones from the void.

Verkar couldn't help but be surprised by the number of stones floating around the girl. Those stones were something widely recognized as the Amnesia Stones, and they were used primarily to recalibrate one's status, though in Player terms it was known as reset.

This wasn't the first time he had helped someone recalibrate their stats, with the number of stones needed being directly proportional to their strength rating. Most people only needed 1 to 4, and occasionally 5 Amnesia Stones to recalibrate.

However, although rare, there are people who need 10 stones, and this only means the person has reached at least Lv100.

Level 100 in this world is not just a mere level, but also a watershed from humans to legends!

"...Then, let's start the ceremony."

"Okay."

Pope Verkar said while hiding his surprised expression. Luckily, his professionalism allowed him to maintain his poker face.

Verkar himself had reached Lv145, but even then, he spent 50 years before he could become a Bishop (Lv1), and another 60 years to reach Lv100. As he raised his levels, his lifespan naturally increased.

Hence, it was normal for legends to be old bacons.

In short, he became a legend after 110 years. But who would have thought...

The girl whose age does not seem to be taller than his great-granddaughter actually managed to achieve his 110-year struggle!

'O, the great Goddess Norn! Please forgive this unworthy child for his unbecoming thought...'

He could only secretly sigh.

No matter the fact, Players is the soldiers of the Goddess Norn. There was no reason to compare himself to this legion of immortals. Verkar suppressed his jealousy and began to focus on the ritual.

In the ritual room, Pope Verkar IV chanted unknown language that Hecate couldn't understand.

『Mobaso Iaa Nidere Kresu...』

This language wasn't transliterated by the game system, but Hecate was no stranger to this chant.

After all, she had experienced this ritual twice in the Rosenweil Kingdom. The difference was only who was the pope who performs the ritual.

Not only that, as one of Leon's direct subordinates, she got many privileges, such as priority treatments when asking for buffs, and access to some restricted areas in that church. Then, after Leon becomes a Templar, her privileges also increased. She could get free buffs without paying anything, no waiting in line, and permission to access all restricted areas of the church.

Truthfully, Hecate could have reset her skills in the Rosenweil Kingdom first before she left. In that case, she would have finished everything less than 10 minutes, without needing to wait for anything.

The reason why she didn't do so and delayed the reset until she arrived at Solstreus City was simply because she want to keep her skill reset a secret to everyone, especially her guild mates.

Although nothing would happens if everyone knows, but why not?

『...Esta Dia Glari Soriya... — RECALIBRATE!!』

Meanwhile, Pope Verkar has finished the chant.

Soon after, 10 Amnesia Stones slowly floated above Hecate, bathing her with the mysterious light emitted by the stones. At the same time, several notification windows popped up in turn.
