Reliving The Past ~ Mage Of The Abyss 54 Chapter 47.5 ~ Update 6.0 Not A Patch Note

Now then, the confusing part… Potency. It is generally pretty simple, 1 potency is the default. Meaning it deals normal damage or heal at a normal rate if it's a healing miracle. Adding more potency is like a percentage (%). +1, meaning, it added 100%, which in itself equal to double the normal amount. This also factors in the same for Luck and Perception as well. Further info will be explored later on.

Also, some info has been locked and will instead be explored differently in each novel. The said novel in questions are the game-themed novel that I made: Reliving the Past ~ Mage of the Abyss, Reliving the Past ~ Second Earth, Ekolia Lite ~ Helping my Bullies Become Heroes, and I'll Kill the Whole World for Them (Be sure to give this one a tiny bit of chance and read… please.)

u003eu003eMainu003cu003c Cla.s.s System

Note: Sub Cla.s.s is not yet in effect at this point.

Base

- Progression Rate (Exp gain): 100%

- Rank Progression: 75% chance to succeed

- Can upgrade Rank at anywhere

- No incompatibility with any Cla.s.s type

- Few examples of Base Cla.s.s is: Warrior, Mage, Rogue, Guardian, and Priest

Advanced

- Progression Rate (Exp gain): 125%

- Rank Progression: 50% chance to succeed

- Can upgrade Rank only at a certain location

- Partially incompatible with a certain Cla.s.s type *Most [Advanced Cla.s.s] are focused solely for Attacker and Tank*

Pinnacle

- Progression Rate (Exp gain): 25%

- Rank Progression: 10% chance to succeed

- Can upgrade Rank only at a certain location and time

- Incompatible with any other Cla.s.s type

Additional Note

- There are three types of Main Cla.s.s. Attacker or DPS, Tank, and Support.

- Most Advanced Cla.s.s are not compatible with Support-type Cla.s.s. Example: when a user picks an advanced Attacker-type Cla.s.s, they cannot add another cla.s.s that is a Support-type, but still can pick up a Tank-type Cla.s.s. But when the user picks an Advanced Support-type Cla.s.s, they cannot pick up the other two type Cla.s.s in the Advanced Category, and can only pick another Support-type Cla.s.s in that Category, but STILL ABLE to pick another cla.s.s type from another Main Cla.s.s.

- People can choose up to 5 cla.s.s all across the three Main Cla.s.s (Base, Advanced, and Pinnacle) Incompatibility still applies, but they can universally pick a cla.s.s from the other Main Cla.s.s.

- Different Cla.s.s types and Main Cla.s.s in a party do not mean anything. The Devs encourage people to use a different combinations and not just having a full party with all of its members in the Base Cla.s.s as a Mage. *If you ever play a game that has full control of what your party builds are, and you ever did this. High five. But, please, don't do it again.*

- Rank Progression, chances to succeed, meaning it does indeed have the element of failure. *Exploit and glitch ignored this*

- At a certain location and time… *You can't expect you can just upgrade your Rank while taking a s.h.i.te now, can you?

- Quick note about the battle system for Reliving the Past, it is pretty simple, and being a VR game it's even more simple. Moving just like in real life, there is no turn-based combat here. Now that the Realism Mode is out, this has turned into even more realistic, because players are now living inside the game itself. Living in another world. They move and do stuff the way they usually do in real life but with the a.s.sists of stats and attributes of the status.

Rankings, Tier, and Rarity

Rank

- From the lowest, there are Starter, Novice, Apprentice, Adept, Expert, and Master.

- Upgrade at every 20 levels, meaning 0-20-40-60-80-100

- Once reaching lv. 100, people will gain NG+ status. [Info Locked]. At each 100 level and beyond, they will have +1 all the way to +7 at level 700. This will make [Info Locked]. Beyond that, it will be replaced with Transcendental Rank.

*Originally, the system is supposed to be at level 1000 and being at +10. I know that the NG+1 starts after you finish the game twice, making it requires level 200 to have +1, but I changed it so that it's not confusing. I never actually paid much attention to this, I only played Dark Soul until NG+3 and then quit ;_; and I forgot how that thing works, so correct me if I'm wrong here.*

- Each Rank gave a better set of skills and benefits according to the cla.s.s they chose. If they have multiple cla.s.s, they get to choose, but if they have only one, they will get all of them.

- Transcendental Rank. From the lowest, there are Eternal, Ethereal, DemiG.o.d, G.o.d, and Divine.

- Sub Rank, [Info Locked]

- Enemy Rank. The Transcendental Rank is the same. However, the normal one… from the lowest, there are Unranked, Petty, Lesser, Common, Greater, and Grand. (You might've heard this somewhere, if so, that means you had a pretty good time in your life)

Spell Tier

- The same simple thing, +1 all the way to +11

Additionally, Grading System… is like this: from F all the way to SSSSS (Quintuplets S)

Item Rarity

- Mainly, there are 11 types: Unranked (Gray), Common (Silver), Uncommon (Green), Antique (Light Blue), Rare (Dark Blue), Epic (Purple), Legendary (Gold), Mythic (Platinum), Ancient (Dark Green), Ancestral (Red), Transcendental (Golden White)

- Additionally, there is: Crafted (Brown) and Unique (Dark Brown)

- *Transcendental Rank has 4 Stages, from Eternal, Ethereal, DemiG.o.d, and G.o.d.*

- Extra Note: Only "Antique" that is left out from the wide term of "Item" category. You only see this in clothing and such that is wearable, so… don't get confused when it's being skipped in an item grade of material.

- Extra Note 2: There are still some things that are not being mentioned and it will be explored later on differently with each novel as they progressed.

- Extra Note 3: All chapters will not be colored for the public release on the websites, I will only be colored it in the doc.u.ment version (PDF) if I have the time or maybe when the volume is complete.

Ancestral Beings

There are many different types of beings that exist in the world of Ekolia. Some of them are still shrouded in mystery while some of them have been widely known, transparent to the world. These beings are the ruler of different types of powers in this world, known as Transcendentals.

The Transcendentals are split into 5 categories.

The Supreme Ruler: There are three types for this category, one is the Divine, one is the Dark Lords, and the other… is the Calamity Dragon.

The High Ruler: Commonly known as G.o.ds. Not to be confused by the G.o.ds of mankind, these G.o.ds live separately from each other and currently… there are 36 of them. And each of them leaves an artifact in the world that would allow the citizens of the world to worship them.

The Stray Ruler: Most of them are DemiG.o.ds and G.o.dling that have yet to ascend to G.o.dhood… or failed. Instead of aiming to become a Ruler, they abandoned their duty to serve their own with their own reasons.

(The Stray Servants): The Ethereals are the servant to the DemiG.o.d until their enthronement to achieve a higher rank.

The Uprising Ruler: The Eternals are those who are newly ascended to the Ancestral Tree. Only a small portion of humanity and other creatures have ascended to this height.

The Ruler: All creatures that have reached the peak of mortality and have a cult of a large following. Example: Kings, Emperor, Demon Lords, Demon King, Spirit G.o.d, etc.

Starting with the Divine, Konig, ruler of the Ancestry.

Her skills, status, domain, and authority… are unparalleled to anything in the world. She also owns a portion of Dark Lords and Calamity Dragon abilities and power.

She never owns a shrine or leaving any kinds of artifacts behind. However, there are many that worship her, and have even more following than Armalia, the High Ruler of the Holy Divine Order. Which in itself, Konig's army before she leaves them.

Her activities are unknown.

The Dark Lords and the Calamity Dragon

There are a total of 8 Dark Lords that currently exist in the world, and there is only one Calamity Dragon.

The same as the Divine, they do not leave anything behind. And it is also true that there are many that worship them, but different from the divine, most of their followings consist of mostly evil soul, even though the Dark Lords is a neutral faction, there are many evildoers among their followers.

Calamity Dragon always has one purpose that attaches very closely to its name, Calamity. Bringer of the End of the World.

The Dark Lords controls the world from below through dungeons, ruins, caves, anywhere that has none of the human population.

[Information for the High Ruler and Below are locked] ~ Will be further explored differently in each novel as they progressed.

According to the theories of the citizens in this world, the three supreme rulers are the ones responsible for the change of the world. People started seeing their wellbeing measured, and then their power grew as the numbers goes up… they discover a new ability.

They believe that the three rulers are the one that created this system.

This brought change in many ways, the system allows its user to be in complete control of themselves and could even become one of the high rulers. The witch, Soline Arlond proved this by becoming the 9th seat of the high ruler herself. Many then started uprising to achieve the same height as her, but none have truly achieved the same.

It was then when Armalia, created a unique kind of Ethereal. One that has the ability to transfer a normal human from another world… into this world. These led the other G.o.ds to make their own, more powerful, intelligent, and better than what she made. However, the Ethereals that they made turned against them and quickly live on their own… doing their own thing, and soon, these Ethereals are known as the G.o.ds of the Travelers.

Armalia's purpose in creating these unique beings is for them to retrieve more powerful individuals from another world to a.s.sist the G.o.ds in achieving victory in the battle against the dark lords. However, everything did not go according to plan.

[Information for the Travelers are locked] ~ Will be explored differently in each novel as they progressed.

The previous war against the dark lords result in a huge toll on humanity, half of the world is disrupted and some parts of them have been cracked open. Only a matter of time, before the whole world, broke completely and turned to ashes.

Only the divine that has linked herself to the core of the world and kept it alive, and— [Further Information has been locked]
