Chapter 26 - Plan In Motion.
Quinn looked at the single blinking bubble among many other grayed-out bubbles and focused on it as she added 1 talent point.
Right after that, she felt changes in her body and felt pain all over for a brief second before everything returned to normal. After that, She felt power coursing through her body and felt very strong.
She also got several notifications and heard the voice.
[ Zontheos Prism has been formed and merged into your soul. Your soul has unlocked shackles. Your body has received a boost due to Zontheos Prism; Your Strength, Constitution, and Agility stat increased by five points each. ]
[ Beginner skills unlocked: Unbound Strike, Unbound Enchant. ]
[ This path is one that you have chosen through your choice and not by following your instinct. But it matters not as you were only given suitable paths after everything about you taking into calculations. This path is also suitable for you but will not be as easy to walk through as the other two paths. ]
[ This path is of extreme offense and requires a fearless and tough mentality. Throw away your fears now that you have started walking this path and forge forward bravely. ]
Quinn was surprised, but she didn't regret her choice and instead became determined, ' Extreme offense? I like it! "
She then looked at her status.

' I should be the strongest in terms of pure offense in the team now. ' Quinn smiled as she looked at this status. She then looked at her Path status.

...
After a minute, Lorain and Quinn were done with their things.
Seeing that, Aren nodded and said, " Mom, Quinn, and Auntie (Quinn's mother) you three will form a team and go to Fluorescent Town. Let's not waste time and leave now. "
The three of them nodded as they left the wild expanse.
After that, Aren looked at the remaining fourteen people and told them to make teams of three.
Bodyguard A, B, C. ( Team 1 )
Jason, Jason's wife, and his son, Julian. ( Team 2 )
Borus, Bodyguard D, Bodyguard E ( Team 3 )
Bodyguard F, Bodyguard G, Bodyguard H ( Team 4 )
Bodyguard I, Bodyguard J ( Team 5 )
" Once someone finds red barries or spirit stones and if there are beasts in that cave, then don't engage directly and call for teammates. "
" Mr. Borus, you can distribute the barries to others, 25 berries to each person would be nice, but it's your call on that. "
After saying all that, Aren looked at everyone and nodded before speaking with a smile, " Choose different towns and start searching. I will be going first. "
After that, Borus and others saw Aren disappearing.
After he left, Julian said hurriedly, " Grandfather! after getting those barries and spirit stones, we don't need to stick with Aren anymore, right? I think we all understood the general gist of things here, so it's fine if we separate, right? "
He really didn't like Aren telling them what to do and what not. Now he also understood things and felt that he could do the same as Aren.
Hearing him, Borus shook his head in disappointment and said, " Julia, don't be blinded by ugly emotions. If Aren took us as strangers, then he could keep this thing a secret and hoard all benefits to himself. Do you know why he didn't do that? "
Julian shrank his neck before asking, " Why? "
" You idiot, because he knows the bigger picture! Sigh...He has put his trust in us; He has taken this step first. And you are saying we should betray this trust? We should stick together in such times because no one knows what the future hold for us, but you...sigh." Borus shook his head and sighed as he looked at Julian.
' Why is there such a difference when they are almost of the same age?...sigh, I guess that's how humans are. Not everyone is the same. ' Thought Borus in disappointment.
He looked at Jason and said, " Jason, Let's select the towns and be on our way. As Aren said, we shouldn't waste time. "
After that, all teams decided on which town they should go to and Borus also distributed 25 berries to everyone before they left the wild expanse.
