It felt warm against her skin, like a dormant power churning just beneath the surface.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You’re kidding. Let me see the stats.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ring of Resurrection: Black Mythic Artifact. Forged in the celestial fire of a Phoenix, this ring holds a spark of the divine beast’s legendary power of rebirth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Attack +10%\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Defense +10%\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fire Resistance +30%\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Skill: Resurrection. Upon death, the wearer is instantly revived with no experience or item loss. Restores full Health and Mana and grants three seconds of invulnerability. Limited to one use per day.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No way,\" Marcus breathed, the word barely left his lips as a whisper. The ring was utterly broken. His mind raced, calculating the implications. A get-out-of-death-free card with no penalty? In a hardcore game like this, it was like being handed a cheat code. For Zion to just hand over something this powerful... it was on par with a Divine item.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You did so much, Stone. Here, you should have it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>FreshwindElara immediately held the ring out to him, her offer genuine and without a moment’s hesitation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Elara, I can’t. Absolutely not.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Stone, Zion already gave me my reward; the Unique Hidden Class, the Five-Element Cleric. This ring should be yours. We finished the quest together, so we each get a prize. It’s only fair.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her tone was firm, leaving no room for argument. It reminded him of when she’d given him that Pet Egg back in the Bat Cave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s not about fair. The answer’s still no.\" He knew he couldn’t accept it, even if he didn’t have a perfect rebuttal ready.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Stone, do you have any idea what the Five-Element Cleric can do?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What does it do?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sudden shift in topic threw him, but he played along. A Unique Hidden Class had to be something special.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s a cleric who commands the five elements. I get all the standard healing spells, but they’re ten percent more powerful. I can buff the party’s elemental resistances, and at higher levels, I can even use the elements to attack.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That’s insane,\" Marcus said, genuinely stunned. It was a super-charged cleric that could also dish out damage. A completely broken class.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"There’s more. I get six attribute points per level now. And the class change came with three passive skills: Health, Mana, and Defense are all boosted by ten percent.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She finished with a proud, slightly smug smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No wonder Zion had said the class could open a ’Divine Path.’ Marcus felt a pang of regret for not taking the Five-Element Sorcerer for himself. He could only imagine how powerful it must have been.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"See? I got the better deal. So just take the ring, will you?\" She pouted, frustrated that he was still being so stubborn. A part of her wondered if he was being chivalrous or just stupidly proud. Didn’t he understand she was trying to thank him? To tie their fortunes together?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And I’m a cleric,\" she pressed on. \"I’m always getting carried. A piece of gear this powerful is wasted on me. But you... you can actually use it. You’ll get the most out of it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before he could protest again, she grabbed his hand and pressed the ring firmly into his palm. Her voice softened to a near whisper. \"If you have this, you’ll be even stronger. Then you can be the one to carry me, okay?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was a kind of compromise she’d never made for anyone before, and likely never would again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alright, Elara. Thank you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing the unwavering sincerity in her eyes, Marcus understood her resolve. He reluctantly accepted the ring, his fingers unconsciously closing around her delicate hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’So soft.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The thought was a jolt to his system. She was incredibly endearing, and for a moment, he found he didn’t want to let go.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I’ve got a quest to do in Red River Village, just up the road. Feel like tagging along?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I can’t today. I need to log out. I’ve been on for ages.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her heart was hammering against her ribs. She’d never been this close to a man before, and her face felt warm, but the sensation was wonderful, simply because it was his hand holding hers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course she wanted to go with him, but reality was calling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh, right. Sure. Just send me a message when you get back on. I’ll help you grind some levels.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mhm, I will.\" Slowly, she withdrew her hand, already missing its warmth. Time always moved too fast when you didn’t want it to.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"See you later.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Bye.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He watched her log out, her figure dissolving into motes of light. With a sigh, he noted he still had plenty of time left. He summoned his mount and turned toward Red River Village.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he rode, Marcus remembered the system reward for killing the Nine-Winged Dark Gold Bat King; a new skill. He pulled up his interface to check.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Desperate Strike: Advanced Skill, Max Level. Active Skill. Costs 10% Health and 10% Mana. Hurl your weapon with overwhelming force to attack the target. Hit Rate 100%. Damage ×3. Critical Hit Chance +30%. Attack Range 3–8 meters. Skill Cooldown 1 minute.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A brutal skill. It would one-shot most monsters, and its power would only scale with his attack. Incredible.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Next, he checked the skill book he’d been rewarded: Knight’s Prayer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Knight’s Prayer: A lost Advanced Knight Skill, once taught by the Goddess of Dreams herself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The description was promising. He learned it without hesitation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Knight’s Prayer: Advanced Knight Skill. Level 1 (0\u002F10000). Active. Knight Class Only. Cost: 300 Mana. Increases the Health of the caster and all party members by 30%. Health Regeneration +50 per second. Duration: 5 minutes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Marcus was floored. Another completely broken skill. With Knight’s Prayer bolstering his defenses and Desperate Strike as his ace in the hole, he was practically untouchable. A laugh of pure, delighted disbelief escaped him as he rode on, his luck feeling nothing short of legendary.\u003C\u002Fp>",1030,"2026-06-03T02:49:37.661Z",1,"novelbin.me","3b4c56ab891fd2976deaf63520b70a51eaf91041295d1c4790b12cec7bcb48c7","mmorpg-birth-of-the-world-s-luckiest-player-chapter-68","mmorpg-birth-of-the-world-s-luckiest-player-chapter-66",407,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fmmorpg-birth-of-the-world-s-luckiest-player-cover.jpg"]
