We checked the information of the equipments first

- Long-sword: +10 attack, +15 agility
- Blue robe: +20 defense
- Boot of haste: +10 speed
- Red ruby ring: +20 strength

- Magic Great-sword: +10 attack, +16 agility
- Gold armor: +20 defense
- Boot of haste: +10 speed
- Blue orc ring: +20 strength

I equipped my gear, and I felt a surge of power

I stood tall, I could feel the familiar weight of my long-sword at my side. My blue robe is a comfortable fit, its silver trimmings catching the light as I move.

I glance down at my boots of haste, feeling the subtle magical aura that enhances my speed. The red ruby ring on my finger seems to pulse with energy, reminding me of its strength-boosting power.

I run a hand through my dark hair, feeling a sense of excitement wash over me.

I glance over at Saji, who stands beside me with an aura of electrifying energy. His athletic build is clad in gleaming gold armor, its polished surface reflecting the light like a miniature sun.

His magic great-sword hangs at his side, its blade crackling with lightning-fast energy. His spiky black hair seems to bristle with energy, and his piercing yellow eyes flash with inner lightning.

He looked like a force to be reckoned with, and even if I won't say it out in a thousand years from now, I'm glad he's by my side.

"Whoa, nice upgrades!" Gorm exclaimed.

"Yeah, you two are looking sharp," Thorne said, proud.

Saji and I shared a brief, proud glance before our competitive expressions returned.

"Okay. okay. Can we see your status now?" Gorm said grinning.

"How do we do that?" I asked

"Just think about the word 'Open Status' in your mind and it'll appear physically of you want it to" Thorne replied

"Open status" we both said in unison.

Our status windows appeared, displaying our stats.

Our dads gazed at our status panels with a mix of awe and wonder. Thorne's eyes widened as he took in the unique talents displayed on our screens.

"By the gods, Kajo! You have Resonance!" Thorne exclaimed, his voice trembling with pride. "And Saji, you're a Storm Caller! This is incredible!"

Gorm nodded in agreement, his face beaming with pride. "You both have unique talents, a rare gift that will set you apart from others. You'll become great men, destined for incredible feats."

I glanced at Saji, who looked just as surprised as I felt. We had no idea what our unique talents meant or what they could do.

"What does it mean, Father?" I asked, curiosity getting the better of me.

Thorne hesitated, exchanging a glance with Gorm. "We'll explain later, son. For now, let's just say that your talents will activate themselves when the time is right."

Saji spoke up, his voice laced with skepticism. "And what about our skills? How do they align?"

Gorm smiled, his eyes shining with excitement. "Ah, your skills complement each other perfectly! Kajo, your healing magic and support skills will pair beautifully with Saji's offense and defense. You'll make a formidable team, one that will take the world by storm!"

I felt a surge of pride at Gorm's words, but Saji's scowl reminded me of our long-standing rivalry.

"Yeah, right," Saji muttered under his breath. "Like we'll ever work together seamlessly."

Thorne and Gorm sensed the tension between us and cautioned, "Remember, your unique talents are a secret. Keep them hidden, for your own safety."

We both nodded and stared down at each other

"Uhm, why do I have experience points and Saji doesn't?" I couldn't help but ask

"Using your healing skills doesn't require combat as a cleric. So even of you don't fight, you'll still be able to level up and rank up , but at a more slower rate because you'll have to keep healing people to receive points" dad replied

"Okay cool. I guess my help isn't in vain then. But I'm still glad i know how to fight though" i said smiling

Dad smiles at that.

"Time to put this gear to the test," Saji said, smirking.

"Oh, I'm ready for you," I replied, grinning.

With that, we set off towards the dungeon portals, ready to meet our temporary teammates and embark on our new paths. Our dads followed closely behind, their eyes fixed on us with a mix of pride and concern.

As we approached the group, I couldn't help but notice their diverse appearances.

The assassin was lean and agile, with piercing green eyes. The dark mage had an air of mystery, with his hood up and face obscured.

The warrior was burly, with thick armor and a menacing scar above his eyebrow.

But it was the Paladin who caught my attention - his shining silver armor and kind face radiated an aura of warmth and protection.

I sighed in admiration.

"He's cute"
....
