Chương 174: Bonus - But What About the Numbers?

What kind of dummy ends the volume without a new set of character sheets?! Jeez, it's a good thing you've got me here, or what a fumble that would have been!

"The story is about the characters, the numbers aren't important!"

"Repeating character sheets all the time is a lazy waste of space!"

"Won't somebody think of the audiobook narrator?" Statements dreamed up by the utterly deranged. So without further ado, allow me to gift you all with the real reason you're here. Starting with our favorite airheaded party girl!

[Allison: Tier 2 Human] [Class Slot 1: Tier 2 Incandescent Souls]*** - Level 9/10 [Class Slot 2: Tier 0 Linguist]* - Level 8/10 [Attributes] Power: 63 Resilience: 63 Awareness: 71 Ego: 63 Will: 6 [Skills] Inner Flames Pyrothaumaturgy Burning Innervation Explosive Throw Translation Okay, so admittedly not a lot has changed from last time. Come on, girls, even with all four—or five—of you working on it, you couldn't finish one measly tier two class?

You're gonna have to step up your game if you want to get to the next tier in the next book. And you better, or people are gonna be mad. Like me! Anyway, maybe our stabby girl has a bit more to show for it. [Violet: Tier 2 Human] [Class Slot 1: Tier 2 Incandescent Souls]* - Level 9/10 [Class Slot 2: Tier 1 Savior] - Level 10/10 [Attributes] Enjoying this book?

Power: 63 Resilience: 93 Awareness: 63 Ego: 93 Will: 6 [Skills] Inner Flames Pyrothaumaturgy Burning Innervation Explosive Throw Protect the Innocent Revitalization Wha—?! The same classes?! Can I get a refund? That's just lazy. At least they're mostly maxed out now. I can appreciate turning the number into the bigger number, but I wanna see something more impressive next time. Although I have to say, I love what she's done with those spells.

This girl can't even come up with a basic bread-and-butter fire dart without nuking an entire ship and I am here for it. Speaking of magic, somebody has been slacking in that area, hasn't she? [Magdalena: Tier 2 Human] [Class Slot 1: Tier 2 Incandescent Souls]* - Level 9/10 [Class Slot 2: Tier 1 Monster Trainer] - Level 2/10 [Attributes] Power: 63 Resilience: 63 Awareness: 77 Ego: 77 Will: 6 [Skills] Inner Flames Pyrothaumaturgy Burning Innervation Explosive Throw Magical Bond Borrowed Power Tsk, tsk, tsk.

I suppose she had to be on her best behavior in the city. Well, she didn't have to. She could have just burned the whole place down! Wouldn't that have been fun? I suppose there's some merit in quietly practicing fine control while she gets ready to revolutionize the world with chaos magic—or blow herself up in an incredibly spectacular manner. Either way is fine with me, but I'm looking forward to seeing what she does with Nipper. Next up, the low-key protagonist of this entire volume.

[Evelyn: Tier 2 Human] [Class Slot 1: Tier 2 Incandescent Souls]* - Level 9/10 [Class Slot 2: Tier 2 Dreamwalker]* - Level 0/10 [Attributes] Power: 63 Resilience: 63 Awareness: 93 Ego: 93 Will: 66 [Skills] Inner Flames Pyrothaumaturgy Burning Innervation Explosive Throw Dream Walking Dream Guide As Good as Real Remember the Way Holy—! Well, if the plot or character arcs or whatever didn't do it, the numbers clearly don't lie. Evie is officially the most stacked member of the crew.

Dang, girl, let someone else have a turn. At least one of you finally addressed that lingering Will problem. Finally, our newest addition. Are they just gonna keep adding new members? That seems like it would be a real nightmare to keep track of. Oh well, not my problem!

[Reverie: Tier 2 Human] [Class Slot 1: Tier 2 Incandescent Souls]*** - Level 9/10 [Class Slot 2: Tier 0 Instigator]* - Level 10/10 [Attributes] Power: 63 Resilience: 63 Awareness: 63 Ego: 73 Will: 6 [Skills] Inner Flames Pyrothaumaturgy Burning Innervation Explosive Throw Provocation She hasn't really done much to distinguish herself, other than stir the pot a bit. It will be fun to see what new shenanigans she gets up to with her next class. Well, that's all for now! Until next time! Bye!
