Olympia : Expansion Arc

Chapter 4

The word about Percy's stunt spread out like wildfire. Most were negative, saying that he cheated his way into these new seemingly unobtainable classes.

Technically, 'being granted access to' isn't really cheating.

But it did what Percy expected it to do. He gained a lot of attention as a public member of the Argonauts while the others who worked behind the scene are left ignored.

Now Jay can resume protecting Olympia from the real hackers without too much attention to himself.

Percy was studying the Expansion in the Argonauts HQ lounge, trying to figure out if there was anything he could do to improve in Spellblade class.

Saying that the Expansion had a lot of features seemed like an understatement. Percy went through a ton of things, but none looked useful to him.

As he scrolled through everything, Orpheus sat next to him. "Watcha' doing?" He asked while wiggling his eyebrows.

Percy sighed. "I'm trying to figure out what I can do to improve how I use this Spellblade class."

Orpheus shrugged. "Besides being shitty about managing your mana, I think you just need practice."

Percy rolled his eyes. "I also need to learn what other spells I can cast. I'm so used to physical combat that magic combat is just alien to me. And I need to be prepared to be a captain."

"Yeah, you still haven't found a teammate, haven't you?"

Percy shook his head. "If I'm gonna be in charge, I can't be moving around with melee all the time. I need to switch in between magic and melee combat."

"So, you're planning to be a damage dealer while captaining?" Orpheus whistled. "That's gonna be a tough one."

"Yeah, I know. The Support and Tank roles are not for me. I like to be on the move." Percy said.

"Why not try the Maestro class?" Orpheus suggested. "It's a really good Support that has high mobility."

"Meh. One of my friends already has her hands on it. She'll be better at it than me." Percy said. "I need to get some practice in."

"Don't overdo yourself." Orpheus advised.

Percy was meeting with his friends when a breaking news dropped in the forums of Olympia.

Olympia's Important Announcement!

Olympia stated that it will make a huge announcement for an update of the game, which is said to go on live tonight. The players of Olympia has been waiting for such updates and it's been a while since Olympia had announced anything officially.

What can we expect from the new update?

Perhaps the usual update of new World Bosses and Items. Maybe a few balancing updates for some classes. But what the players would really like to see is the increase in the rate of drops for "hidden classes" and "hidden items". So far, only one person have been seen obtaining such class and that is the star of the Rookie Showcase disaster, Percy Jackson.

Is he really that lucky? Or did he have his ways? We'll find out soon enough.
