Chapter 73: F-Rank Spells (1/2)

Chapter 74: Converting Extols into Merps

Eren had covered his basic needs of movement, defence, attack, and AoE with the spells he had selected for himself

The stars in front of the spells conveyed their effectiveness

Spells are also ranked as per their usage by ranked entities That means there are F-Rank Novice spells for F-Rank Novice rankers, E-Rank Ace spells for Ace rankers, D-Rank Adapt spells for Adapt rankers, and so on

Each ranked spell further gets divided into five grades or stars A five-star spell of a particular rank will have the highest potency and effects than any of its lower-star counterparts within the sarade

2-star: Mid grade

3-star: Upper grade

4-star: Peak grade

5-star: Suprerade

Each ranked spell is only suitable for a e in that sae can use the F-Rank spell of any star But they can not use even the initial-grade spell of E-Rank without facing severe consequences

Of course, a higher-star spell was more expensive than its lower-star counterpart in the same rank The five-star spell was the most expensive of all its lower-star variations

Furthermore, defence-type spells were usually more expensive than attack-type and movement-type spells That was because they were few, especially when it calect their defence no matter which class or path they choose for theher amount of merit points for a two-star defence-type wasn’t questioned

Eren informed his spell choices to the receptionist In return, the latter sent him a deduction request worth 511 es Eren clicked ‘Yes’ and his points were deducted

The receptionist handed hi the merit points deposition The scrolls seemed new because they were recently created for the current first-year students

The data on the scrolls could be digitized and stored on an ID stone But LA prevented students fro the spell scrolls first

First, the academy wanted the students to have a physical copy of the spell scrolls in case their ID stones stopped functioning due to various reasons Second, it wanted every student to pay for every spell they take with their own merit points

Otherwise, there ays to share the digitized copy ah their respective ID stones’ spectral screens without involving LA in the transaction The academy wanted the merit points economy to thrive And this would have been detrimental to their cause

Of course, the students were allowed to store the data printed on the spell scrolls onto their ID stones after co the transaction with the acade the data with any other student

Eren had to sign a D-Rank binding contract with the receptionist The surcharge of 50 points was due to this contract The contract was placed upon the students to assure that they would not illegally share the contents of the spell scrolls they received Sharing would be prohibited to any entity related or unrelated to the acadeitized copies, consciously or subconsciously, through themselves, other personnel, or via any other means

The contract covered every possible loophole the potential contract breachers n these contracts before receiving the spells, ensuring that the spell scrolls don’t get copied and shared across the crowds of students

Eren wasn’t going to share his spell scrolls anyway He didn’tspells was not the sole reason he had come to this facility

“Sir, I want to convert my Extols into merit points”

The Butcher declared his second reason for being there He had already exchanged the Extols he had received from Isaac and his team with different ones in the city of Lionhearts when he was roa its streets with Jake He didn’t want those Extols tracked to hi into Isaac’s case, they were still all acadeh at his expense

“Hmm? Kid, are you sure? The Extols could still be used on the acaderounds for various facilities The Extols, once converted into iven back to the students even if they get ready to pay a higher exchange rate in merit points to do so”

The receptionist warned Eren He couldn’t be blamed The Butcher didn’t look like he was born rich with his visage or his clothes

“I’e rate?”

“135 merit points for one Extol”

‘Not bad I was expecting an exchange rate of 140 merit points/Extol But this is not out of et worse in the coe more than half of the Extols I have with encies’ Eren thought to hi:

“That’s fine Sir, I want to convert 100 Extols intoexactly 100 Extols out froe space The receptionist opened his eyes wide in surprise after looking at the kid, his clothes, and then at the amount of Extols he had so casually produced in front of hiht the greenhorn in front of him must have exhausted all his Extols reserve to earn e rate was relatively favourable He appreciated the lad’s boldness and decisiveness when it ca his wealth for his education
