Reawakening: SSS-Rank Villain's POV

Emily looked at Lucian calmly. As she was in a rush, she hoped Lucian would agree as soon as possible.

However, she couldn't show her anxiety, or she would be at a disadvantage.

"If I want to cooperate with you, you've got to at least state where you came from. Otherwise, who knows if you guys are good or evil?"

Lucian's question made Emily hesitate for a moment, but she still said it out loud.

"Alright then. My name is Emily, I've already said this. I'm the daughter of the head of the Desrade family in Nexus City. The person next to me is my butler. This is Protector Mandy, my protector."

Lucian sized up the three of them. Their clothes were outstanding, and they looked like they came from a prominent family.

After Emily finished speaking, the three of them looked at Lucian earnestly, hoping that Lucian would give them some reaction.

After all, the Desrade family was quite influential in Nexus City. Most people have heard of the powerful Desrade family.

Emily was the publicly acknowledged one of the seven goddess of the entire Nexus City. She had the appearance and figure that made countless guys from other wealthy families craze for her.

However, after Lucian heard it, he only let out a simple "Oh."

"Since you've already announced your household, I'm relieved. Let's enter the secret realm."

Emily looked at Lucian, flabbergasted. "No, I said I'm the daughter of the Desrade family?"

Lucian nodded. "I heard it. I'm not deaf."

Emily held her hands to her forehead and was utterly speechless. "You must be from another place. Somewhere far away."

The three of them were disappointed, but they did not say anything more.

Lucian could roughly guess that Emily's family was not ordinary. That was probably why she felt that his calm reaction was abnormal.

"Although I have never entered a secret realm, I understand it."

"Let me get straight to the point. I want the reward for this secret realm."

As soon as Lucian finished speaking, Emily was immediately displeased.

"What do you mean? You're asking for a lot right from the start, aren't you? Do you want to hog all the rewards for yourself right from the start? How are we supposed to work together with you like this?"

Butler Barry quickly comforted her, "Miss, don't be anxious. We'll listen to his explanation."

Lucian explained, "I'm not here to just be an extra headcount if I cooperate with you guys."

"Our cooperation will be carried out according to the rules of the secret realm. After completing the secret realm, the rewards will be distributed according to the rules."

"Other than the overall team rating, there will also be a weighted score based on the four ratings of damage received, physical damage dealt, spell damage dealt, and healing done. The final individual rating will be obtained based on these scores. Those with the higher rating will receive the secret realm's rewards first."

"It shouldn't be a problem for us to act according to the rules, right?"

Although Emily was confused, she still agreed.

She had never entered a secret realm before, so she naturally did not understand the rules.

She also understood that Lucian was not asking for too much, but she felt he was acting very confident.

At the same time, she also became highly confident. Since they were subjected to the realm's rules, she was sure that she would definitely get the highest rating and obtain the rewards of the secret realm!

"Alright, we will follow the rules. But I am telling you, I will definitely get the rewards this time!"

Looking at her confident act, Lucian only smiled faintly.

"You haven't even entered, yet you're already boasting. What if you get slapped in the face?"

Emily smiled smugly, "Do you know which university I'm going to?"

"It's Primordial Godslayer University!"

Before Lucian could start guessing, she answered quickly.

"So, do you still think you have a chance to beat me?"

When Emily saw that Lucian was the same age as her, she knew that she would surely win!

After all, Primordial Godslayer University was the top university in the country. Those who could enter this university were all the top geniuses in the country.

She was one of these top geniuses! No one could compare to her.

It was this confidence that made her believe that she would undoubtedly win against Lucian.

However, Lucian only shrugged indifferently, "We'll know the result after we enter."

"Alright, I'll give you a chance to witness the elegance of a top-notch genius!"

Following that, the four of them arrived at the entrance of the secret realm.

This place was like a teleportation portal. Once they entered, they would head to another space.

Emily raised her right hand. The ring on her slender jade finger flashed with light, and a pile of equipment appeared before her eyes.

Let's make preparations first before entering the secret realm. Let me put on my equipment first."

Lucian also revealed his storage ring. After the light flashed, his equipment also appeared on the ground.

Usually, to facilitate movement, he would not wear his equipment. Only when he was about to battle would he put on the equipment.

Lucian looked at the equipment in front of Emily and could not help but sigh. As expected of a member of a prominent family.

Every piece of equipment was incomparably superb. At a glance, one could tell that it was the clothing of an aristocrat.

Then, he looked at his own equipment. Although the equipment's stats were not bad, it looked very rough and did not look fashionable.

At this moment, Emily looked at the equipment in front of Lucian and asked, "This set of equipment of yours can't be Iron-grade, right? If so, that's newbie-level equipment."

Emily looked at the equipment in front of Lucian and felt that many of it was lack luster.

...

"Look at my blue robe. It's of Silver quality. Look at the lovely workmanship."

Emily proudly showed off her equipment. Besides her, the maid Protector Mandy couldn't help but show off as well.

"This speedy vine armor of mine is also silver-quality. If I didn't work for the Desrade family, getting this kind of equipment wouldn't be easy."

The three people in front of him all showed off their equipment, whether intentionally or not.

But Lucian roughly looked at them and felt they were all very… ordinary.

[ Blue Magic Robe: silver, increases 50 mana, increases 15 defense, increases 15 speed ]

[ Speedy Vine Armor: silver, increases 40 speed, 20 defense ]

There were also a few pieces of silver equipment; the rest were all iron equipment.

To be honest, they were pretty ordinary. Lucian did not know where they got the courage to show off.

Lucian was a little speechless. He said powerlessly, "All of my pieces of equipment are silver-grade. They should be fine."

He didn't want to expose the set of legendary equipment he had. Even his summons all had legendary set of equipments not to mention himself. But if they knew, they might just hang themselves dead.

The three of them were stunned when they heard that.

Emily was in disbelief.

"I don't believe it. How are your pieces of equipment all silver grade?!"

She did not want to believe it. As the young lady of a large and prominent family, she had only obtained one or two pieces of high-quality silver-grade equipment.

However, this young man who needed to go on a material collecting mission before her was wearing all silver-grade equipment.

How could she believe it…

Protector Mandy and the Butler were in disbelief. From their point of view, Lucian looked like he was from an average family. How could he own so many silver equipments?

At that moment, she stood frozen on the spot and couldn't believe what she had seen.

"It's really, really all silver quality equipment!"

Lucian shrugged, "I've already told you. If you don't believe me, there's nothing I can say."

Protector Mandy and Butler Barry were also surprised.

Lucian looked like a young man from an ordinary family.

Emily pouted unhappily. "Hmph! When I go home, I'll definitely ask dad to get me more silver-grade equipment!"

The four of them started to put on their equipment on the spot. After everyone was fully equipped, they could make their final preparations.

"I suggest that both of us introduce our talents and our roles to each other. This will be more convenient for our future cooperation."

Emily suggested it.

Butler Barry was the first to respond to Emily's suggestion. He said, "My talent is Rock Wall. My defense is very high, so my position is a tank. I usually take the role of absorbing damage in a party."

"Oh right, I'm also a level 60, Rank 0."

After Butler Barry finished, Protector Mandy continued, "My talent is Twin Shadows. My speciality is invisibility and creating clones, so my role is an assassin."

"I'm also a Rank 0, Level 65."

Emily gave the last introduction. "My talent is kind of special so I won't reveal it yet."

"The only thing that I can say is that my talent is a mage-type talent, so it requires a very high mana value."
