Hero Of Harmony

"Hmm, Master, are these names of other people who are a part of your group?" Asked Alexander curiously while reading the names.

"Yes; they are old friends, though I haven't seen them in some time, fifty years, I'd say." Remarked Lavender with a light smile while reminiscing her past.

"Fifty years is quite a while, Master, even if you have a long lifespan; though anyways, why am I number six, even though there are only five people in the group?" Asked Alexander as he closed his Status panel and glanced at Lavender, though he was slightly taken aback.

The moment Alexander asked that question, my expression soured while I tightly clenched my fist, and I couldn't help but feel an immense amount of rage and sadness; his question had brought up one of my biggest traumas, something I'd love to forget.

"I-It's nothing to worry about, Alexander; the Status panel might've just made a mistake." Said Lavender with a forced smile while shaking her head.

I knew my response was stupid and terrible, not to mention I'm sure Alexander could see through my lie; however, I just didn't wish to talk about it and bring up bad memories, luckily Alexander wasn't a normal child; he was perceptive enough to understand that I didn't want to continue speaking about it.

"Well, hopefully, it fixes itself, anyways, Master; now that I've joined your group or party, can you freely observe my Status panel?" Said Alexander as he shifted the conversation back to the main topic.

"Yes, and that's exactly what I'm about to do." Replied Lavender with a slight smile while quickly shifting her focus to something else.

Summoning my Status panel, I click on Alexanders' name at the bottom of the group list. When I do, my Status panel is switched to his; while examining his Status panel, I could feel my eyes widen in shock while my mouth slowly opened.

'T-This, this is unbelievable! Excluding the Title [Member of the Gypsies], he has two Rare, one Epic and the other Genesis; he has six Traits, three Mythical, one Legendary, and two Rare. And lastly, he has five Skills, three Mythical, one Uncommon, and the last one is full of question marks; not even Alexander has any clue what it could be.' Thought Lavender in disbelief as she scanned a Status panel that one would mistake for a Gods.

"From your expression Master, I'm going to assume I'm quite unique?" Asked Alexander with a raised eyebrow as he stared at Lavender's astonished expression.

"A-Alexander, be honest with me. Have you been lying to me this entire time?" Questioned Lavender seriously as she switched her focus to Alexander, her words slightly surprising him.

"I haven't, Master; besides, even when I do lie, you can see right through me. Is my Status panel really that impressive?" Replied Alexander, shaking his head back and forth while rubbing his head in confusion.

"Impressive? No, your Status panel is far from Impressive; It's Godly. I had thought you might've been a reincarnated God with how ridiculously your Status panel is, and while, in all honestly, I can't completely rule that option out, I don't think you're a God." Replied Lavender with a frown, unsure how to feel about this.

'Besides, not even a Gods Status panel is this ridiculous.' Thought Lavender to herself, as she's had the opportunity to view a Gods Status panel in the far past when she was a mere weak Princess.

"If my Status panel is as impressive as you say, isn't that more of a bad thing than a good thing? I love the concept of me being special, but sometimes being too special will bring more negatives than positives." Asked Alexander with a frown as he viewed his status panel.

"Yes, what you say is true; if you had the strength to back it up, then it wouldn't be that big of a deal since no one would wish to make a powerful enemy. However, with how weak you are, I'm sure many people would love to kill you, and if you're unlucky, they'll capture you and perform painful transferring rituals." Stated Lavender with a frown while releasing a sigh of unease as she stared at Alexander's status panel

"T-Transferring rituals?" Muttered Alexander while gulping nervously as he imagined being experimented on.

"No need to think too much about it right now, Alexander; we are in a remote forest filled with very weak beasts, not to mention no one even knows of your presence. So, for now, you're safe; however, before you leave to explore the world, you'll not only need to get much stronger than you are now, but you must also acquire a skill that'll conceal your status panel from others. While I have a skill that'll conceal your status panel from others, I can't help you much when it comes to getting stronger; there are no true shortcuts to gaining power." Declared Lavender as she closed Alexander's status panel and solemnly stared at him.

"I understand, and since that is the case, I should get serious about improving myself, and now that I have access to mana, I can improve not only my physique but also my mana." Replied Alexander seriously as he raised his hand while intensely concentrating, resulting in small amounts of pure mana to expel from his palm.

"However, before I begin my training arc, can you tell me about my Class? Or at least inform me about the ranks so I may understand how powerful my Class is." Asked Alexander curiously with an interested expression as he swiftly sat back on the ground, his sudden change of demeanor causing Lavender to chuckle to herself.

"Yes, I probably should have informed you earlier; but I suppose now would also be a time to do so. Alright, listen up, Alexander; in this world, everything can be ranked into six different tiers or ranks; either one works. Going in order from lowest to highest, you got Common, Uncommon, Rare, Epic, Legendary, and finally, Mythical; of course, some items will vary in magnitude even if they are of the same rank; however, they'll be insignificant the lower the tier or rank." Explained Lavender, though her words filled Alexander with confusion.

"Master, are you sure there are only six? My Classes rank wasn't listed." Said Alexander, to which, this time, Lavender was now filled with confusion.

"I'm certain there are only six different ranks, and because I'm certain, that's why the rank of your Class and Title is so utterly confusing and shocking. The rank of your Class and Title doesn't even exist, yet at the same time, you're living proof that they do exist; it just means, until now, no one has ever had anything with that rank." Replied Lavender as she rubbed her face in confusion and frustration, though they were overshadowed by her astonishment.

'Now then, here comes the easy and the most interesting part; to find out how powerful this so-called Genesis rank is. Although I don't know how comfortable he will be with killing something, from what he told me about his past life, killings were scarce.' Thought Lavender as she looked into the forest, seemingly searching for something.

"Well, I don't know what to think about that; I don't want my Class to be weak; I just find it hard to believe that my Class could be more powerful than a Mythical Class." Remarked Alexander as he quickly closed his mouth shut with his hands and nervously looked at the sky, though after nothing happened, he released a sigh of relief.

"Finding out how powerful your Class truly is will be easy; you'll just need to kill something, so you may gain enough experience to increase your level since when you increase your level, you're rewarded with a certain amount of status points, as we call them, given the rank of your Class. These status points will allow you to freely allocate them to whichever stat you desire, effectively increasing your power in the process." Stated Lavender, though her words caused Alexander to frown, something Lavender foresaw might happen.

"I would like to increase my power just as much as the next person, and I'm not one opposed to killing, although I've never done it; however, I dislike the idea that to increase my strength, I must acquire experience by killing living beings if I want to level up. Killing living beings to protect my life or eat is one thing, but doing so out of the sole desire for more strength doesn't sit right with me." Declared Alexander solemnly, and although he anticipated this day would come, that didn't mean he was any less displeased.

Hearing Alexanders' response, I sighed in annoyance, as while I expected, he might be against killing, I didn't expect this would be the reason why. When I looked at him, from his stature and expression alone, I knew I would have little chance of changing his thinking; not like I was going to do it now or anytime soon, considering most people don't increase their levels by killing living beings with sentience after all.

"Listen, Alexander; I can tell you greatly dislike the idea; however, this is crucial information that concerns your future, and sometimes you must do things you don't wish to do. Besides, you're still level zero; all you must do is kill a few small harmless creatures, not to mention; if you're still opposed to the idea, you can take their corpse as food; that way, you're not killing them for no reason." Said Lavender calmly, her words causing Alexander's expression to lighten significantly.

"Haa, alright, when you put it that way, Master, I'm not that opposed to it, though I don't plan to do this often; however, I wish there was an alternative way to level up." Remarked Alexander with a light frown as he stood up and approached Lavender.

"You don't need to worry about that, Alexander. There are alternate ways to increase your level; however, we will discuss that later. For now, let us venture into the forest so you may increase your level." Stated Lavender while lightly chuckling as she began approaching the edge of the clearing before entering the forest, Alexander closely following her.
