In the morning, Albert and Lily met in the basement behind the Item shop to discuss their plans. Albert had decided to make the basement their secret hideout because it seems like its abandoned and no one else seems to have interest in the place. In the basement, Albert sat down on the wooden paneled floor across Lily and the two began to discuss about the things that they need to do.

"Ahem . . . We're here today to have a meeting. Today we are two and hopefully in the future there will be more of us. Also hopefully in the future we can get our hands on an Emperium so that we can make our Clan official."

"Uhm . . Why do we need to have an Emperium to have an Official Clan?"

"It's one of the requirements to create an official Clan. With the addition to ten gold coins."

"That's expensive. . . "

"It is, But for now the first thing on our list is a Clan name. Do you have any suggestions for our clan's name?"

"Hmmmm. . . .Holy Light?"

"Huh . . that sounds good. Why Holy Light?"

"Because we're Acolytes and the only skill that we have that can cause damage is Holy Light."

"Well that's partially true. Did you know we can use heal on undead monsters to damage them?"

"Really? I didn't know!"

"I think Holy Light as our Clan name is good."

"Yay! We're the Holy Light!" Lily smiled when the Clan's name was decided.

"Well that enough of that, lets go to the second thing on the list of things that we need to discuss about. The next topic is our stats. Before we begin, have you distributed any of your statistical attribute points into any of your attributes?"

"Hmmm. . . No, I still have fifty attribute points remaining."

"Okay. Another thing, What kind of Acolyte do you want to be?"

"Hmm . . . What kind of Acolytes are there?"

"Well to me there are three kinds. Full Support Acolytes, Tank Acolytes and Battle Acolyte."

"Oh. . . can you tell me about each one of them?"

"Well Full Support Acolytes focuses more on their ability to heal, buff and dispel any status ailments that the people in their party may have. Full Support Acolytes focuses most of their statistical attributes on intelligence so that the have enough mana to keep casting skills. Their role in a party is to keep everyone healthy and alive."

"Oh . . that sounds interesting. What about the other two?"

"A Tank Acolyte focuses more on being able to take damage. Their role in the party is to be in the front line taking on any damage from monsters while their party mates attack from a far. They focus their statistical attribute more on Vitality to be able to stay alive."

"Uhg . . I don't like the sound of being a punching bag for monsters."

Albert grinned as he began to talk about the last type of Acolyte.

"Okay, Well the last one is the Battle Acolyte. They are considered to be Acolytes who can go into dungeons without a party."

Lily's eyes squinted when she heard what Albert had said about the Battle Acolytes.

"Without a party? Are they that strong?"

"They're strong but of course everyone has their limits. They focus their statistical attributes on what ever will help them become better in battle."

"What type of Acolyte will you be Albert?"

"Isn't it obvious?" Albert grinned "I'll become a Battle Acolyte"

"Then I want to become a Battle Acolyte also!"

"Okay! I'll help you with your statistical attribute allocation. For now you have fifty free points for your statistical attributes right?"

"Yep!"

"Okay add twenty on your Strength attribute, ten on your Vitality attribute, ten on your Agility and Dexterity."

"Done!" Lily exclaimed.

Albert stared at his character screen and something seemed odd.

As Albert continued to stare at his character screen, he realized that his statistical attributes were higher than it should be. The longer Albert stared at his character screen, the more perplexed he was of why his statistical attributes is higher than it should be. Then he noticed his Character Trait, Albert's Character Trait, 'Zenith', his Trait multiplies his statistical attributes by two. Since he originally had fifty free statistical attribute and he distributed twenty of Strength and Dexterity, ten on Agility and Vitality, all of those statistical attributes that was distributed had doubled due to his Character Trait.

"This is insane!" Albert said out loud.

"What's insane Albert?"

"Ah nothing. Lily I'm curious, what's your Character Trait?"

"My Character Trait?"

"Yes, it should tell you your Character Trait right above your health."

"Ah here it is. It says my Character Trait is 'Ancient's Blessing'. The description says that my Vitality is multiplied by one thousand percent."

Albert didn't say anything for a moment when he heard Lily say the description of her Character Trait. The thought of having such Trait is also insanely over powered. That is because it means that Lily's Vitality statistical attributes at the moment is one hundred. Which also mean that when she reaches a higher level, her health will also be enormous. It astounding that the two of them has such Traits because in the game 'Deaths of the Gods', Traits are received at the birth of a character and to acquire an over powered Trait is like winning the lottery.

"Is your Vitality's statistical attribute one hundred at the moment?"

"It is! This is amazing!" Lily was shocked when she saw that her Vitality statistical attribute is so high.

If his Trait in this world was in one the characters in the game 'Deaths of the Gods', Albert would have sold his account right away for a lot of money. Gamers in the game 'Deaths of the Gods' would even hunt down and buy other players' accounts just for their characters if they have the Traits that they want and they would offer them thousands of dollars just for a game character with the specific Trait. Albert is ecstatic with his Character Trait because of the possibilities .

"Well since we're done with the plans for our stats, lets talk about the third thing on the list which is our equipment."

"We have really nice weapons and the helmet you gave me has a high defense."

"Yes we don't need to worry about our weapons. But for defense, we need to equip better armors. For that we need the coins. So we should go take some quest at the Adventurer's Guild and make some coins."

"Okay!"

"Since we have nothing else to talk about, let us adjourn this meeting and continue it next time when we collect some the coins."

"Oh by the way how much coins are we planning to gather?"

"As much as we can" Albert grinned.

"Oh I forgot before we leave this place, turn off your friend request option."

"Why should I do that?"

"Because when leave this place a lot of adventurers would want to add us in their friend list and it will be bothersome having a bunch of friend requests popping up all the time."

"Oh, okay!"

After opting their friend request option to off, the two left the basement.

 Albert and Lily walked in the brick paved road of Prontera toward the Adventurer's Guild. On their way there, they noticed that they were being watched and they could hear various adventurers whispering about them as they walked to their destination.

"Acolytes! I wonder who'll try to recruit them first."

"Look two Acolytes, I bet they'll be recruited into a Clan really fast."

"Two Acolytes and they don't have a Clan patch yet. That's rare."

 Albert knows very well why all the adventurers are murmuring about them. Acolytes are very sought after by many Clans because of their ability to save the lives of their members. But most clans don't just recruit any Acolytes. First they seek them out, then once the Acolyte has reached a certain level, Clans will do what they must to recruit them. So for now, Albert and Lily are pretty much just a red dot on their map. But once they get stronger, Clans will flock like crazy to recruit them.

Albert and Lily arrived at the building of the Adventurer's Guild and once they both stepped into the building, many of the adventurers inside game them a stare. Then as they walk their way to the quest board, an Archer class adventurer came up to them.

"Smart."

"Excuse me?" Albert's brow furrowed.

"Ya'll turned off your friend request option"

 "Well that's because we knew there would be a lot of friend requests once we became Acolytes."

While Albert is observing the quest board, the Archer class adventurer continued to talk to them.

"What Clan are ya'll in?"

"None yet."

"Well if you want you can join my. . "

Right before the Archer could finish his sentence, Albert instantly declined him.

"Sorry we're not interested."

"Tsk. What are two Acolytes going to do by them selves?"

Albert didn't say anything else to the Archer because he knows he can't back anything up at the moment. But once they get stronger, they wont be bothered anymore by people like the rude Archer class adventurer.

"Let's go Lily, I found a quest for us."

Albert grabbed Lily's hand and walked over to the quest counter.

"We would like to take this quest."

Albert placed two stubs of the quest that was posted on the quest board.

"To take this quest, please show this to the guard of Prontera Culvert."

Albert was given two small rectangular tablets that says 'Quest Pass'. The quest that Albert decided to take is a dungeon quest. The description says that the Thief Bug population in the sewers of Prontera Culvert are breeding at an excessively fast rate and the City of Prontera will be paying adventurers one gold coin for every fifty Female Thief Bug monster that is killed. To prove that fifty has been slayed, simply collect fifty pair of insect feelers from Female Thief Bug monsters. This quest is also convenient because it can be repeated as much as possible.

After taking the 'Quest Pass from the counter, Albert and Lily went straight to the Item shop to buy some potions for healing and grape juice for recovering their mana. Even though the two won't need the healing potions, because they have the ability to heal them selves using their skills, its better to have some just in case. Then right after buying the potions and grape juice with the money that they had left, the two walk towards the western field of Prontera to head to the dungeon called Prontera Culvert.

**

Albert and Lily began walking west ward when they exited from west gate of Prontera. Moments later, the two found themselves in front of a Prontera Royal Guard guarding the entrance to the dungeon called Prontera Culvert.

Prontera Culvert is the underground sewer system under the city of Prontera. Many new adventurers descend to this dungeon to gain some experience due to the excessive amount of monsters that spawn inside. But recently there has been a dangerous infestation of Thief Bug monsters and some of the newly pledged adventurers in the past months have died down there due to the Thief Bug monster infestation.

Albert and Lily walked up to the Royal Guard and instantly the guard blocked them with his pole ax then began warn them.

"Halt! No one is allowed to access the dungeon at the moment due to the infestation."

Albert took out the two rectangular tablets and showed it to the Royal Guard.

  "Ah, you two must be volunteers. This is the entrance of the Prontera Culverts. Do you wish to go inside?"  

"Yes Please."

The Royal Guard stepped out of the way for the two.

"Please be careful down there, there has been many fatalities in the past weeks."

Albert and Lily entered the door way and instantly they both could detect the putrid scent of the sewers. As they began to descend down into the sewers, the scent became stronger and stronger.

"UHGGG!!! Ewww . . Albert it smells!" Lily pinched he nose as she continued to follow Albert.

"Oh my god. . . It does smell."

Albert took out a shirt from his dimensional storage ring and ripped it into two. He wrapped one of them around his face to filter the smell from his nose. The other half of the shirt he gave to Lily so that she could also wrap it around her face to cover her nose from the smell.

After a moment the smell had subsided thanks to their make shift masks. The two looked around and began to walk around.

"Okay Lily. Follow me! Kill every monster in sight!"
