You leaned back in your chair at the breakfast table, looking at Lukas, Liora, and Mira with a calm, decisive smile.
"Enough hiding and reacting to others. Let's register both of you as adventurers — officially. Then we'll travel around the world together. We'll see everything this world has to offer: vast oceans, ancient dwarf kingdoms in the mountains, demi-human villages, elven forests, floating sky cities, dragon territories… whatever we want. No rush, no kings telling us what to do. Just us exploring freely."
Lukas's eyes lit up with excitement. The shadows around him danced happily. "That sounds perfect, big brother. I want to see the world without being treated like garbage anymore."
Liora bowed her head gracefully toward you and Lukas. "If Cosmic Lord Lukas wishes to travel, then I will follow and serve loyally. I've never seen much of the world either… it would be an honor."
Mira's fox ears perked up, tail swishing with clear enthusiasm. She leaned against your shoulder, voice warm and devoted.
"As you command, my lord. I will protect all of you on the journey. Exploring the world at your side sounds wonderful."
You stood up and continued:
"Also… from now on, your official adventurer class will be Necromancer, with the title Cosmic Lord. Your rank will be listed as Unmeasurable."
With a single, casual snap of your fingers (invisible to anyone outside the room), reality adjusted itself perfectly.
Lukas's guild card — which had previously shown "Fifth Hero, B-rank" — instantly updated in his storage ring. When he pulled it out, it now glowed with dark cosmic energy:
Name: Lukas
Class: Necromancer
Title: Cosmic Lord
Rank: Unmeasurable
The card itself felt heavy with power, and anyone who looked at it would feel an instinctive awe and fear.
Lukas stared at the card in wonder, then grinned widely. "Unmeasurable… I like that a lot."
Mira smiled proudly. "It suits you perfectly."
After breakfast, the four of you left the Starlit Haven and headed straight to the capital's Adventurers' Guild (the grand central branch). The hall was packed, but the moment you entered, whispers erupted again:
"It's them… the ones who refused to kneel before the King yesterday!"
"Look at the Fifth Hero… he feels completely different now…"
You walked up to the registration counter with Lukas. The receptionist's hands trembled slightly as she prepared new cards.
Lukas placed his hand on the testing orb. The crystal didn't even try to measure — it simply flashed black and silver, then shattered into harmless sparkles. A deep, resonant gong echoed through the entire guild hall.
The orb reformed itself and displayed in glowing letters for everyone to see:
Necromancer — Title: Cosmic Lord — Rank: Unmeasurable
Dead silence fell across the guild, followed by stunned chaos.
"Unmeasurable?! That's never happened before!"
"Cosmic Lord… what kind of class is that?!"
"The Fifth Hero… he's not weak at all. He's a monster…"
Mira and Liora stood proudly beside you and Lukas. No one dared mock anyone in your group now.
You received the updated guild cards without any further testing. The guild master himself came out briefly, bowed nervously (though not too deeply), and offered any high-rank quests you might want. You politely declined for now.
With registration complete, the four of you stepped back out into the bright morning sun of the capital.
Lukas tucked his new card away, looking freer and happier than ever.
"So… where do we go first, big brother? North to the dwarf mountains? East to the elven forests? Or straight to the ocean? I'm ready for anything now."
Mira stayed close to your side, tail brushing your hand. Liora walked loyally beside Lukas, glancing at him with quiet devotion.
