Chapter 553: Chapter 239 Exchange Conditions for Metal-based Witchcraft (Two-in-One Mega Chapter)_2
“Regarding this matter, everyone can slowly get to know each other later,” Calum said, a slight smile appearing on his face as he caught the eager expressions in the eyes of those around him.
Hearing this, Rein nodded slightly. Could he finally check the special item exchange catalog?
He had first heard about the ‘Tide Stepper’ being based on the ‘Sword Bearer’ structure during a joint mission with the Empire’s South Sea Fleet, and now it seemed not so much an imitation, but an exact replica!
Even the names were the same…
“I currently have bronze level access, and according to what Coleum just said, I can check the details of special item exchanges for Gold Coin level and below.”
In a moment, he planned to inquire about the exchange requirements for metal-based witchcraft.
...
But he wondered if Gold Coin level access would be sufficient to get that information.
That was a question!
“Dismissed!”
…
Just as Rein was about to leave, Angus and Viery, among others, came over with smiles and said:
“Lord Rein, now that we all have our badges and have become official Sword Bearers, how about we have a casual meal together in the private dining room on the second floor?”
Though Angus was even bigger than Rein and an unmistakable hulk, he was as delicate as could be from his long service in the Imperial Army.
For a young man as exceptionally talented as Rein, who was ten years his junior, Angus didn’t miss the opportunity to extend his friendship, especially today.
By his side, Viery also smiled and added, “Yes, Lord Rein, join us!”
After a moment of thought, Rein smiled and nodded, saying, “Sure!”
Although he had intended to check on the metal-based witchcraft exchange right away, it was almost time for lunch, and the inquiry would probably take a while to complete.
Besides, these guys had been sparring with him for three days straight…
With an implicit suggestion, Angus then said to Rein, “Lord Rein, would you like to invite anyone else?”
Upon hearing Angus’s words, Rein couldn’t help but show a puzzled expression, but following his gaze, he instantly understood.
He was referring to Vinica and Evelyn…
After some thought, Rein sent out invitations to both women.
The two women gladly accepted, and soon a group of eight arrived at the private dining room in the newcomer building’s restaurant.
The restaurant offered great food, which could be paid for with Imperial Gold Coins or with Merit Points.
But since Gold Coins were easier to earn and Merit Points were not that easy to come by, almost no one chose to pay with Merit Points.
After the pleasantries.
Angus asked, “Lord Rein, you are the first among us to have team captain privileges, what kind of team members do you intend to select?”
To be honest, Rein had thought about this question but had yet to decide. He simply shook his head and responded:
“I haven’t decided yet. What about you?”
Argus was quite strong, ranking in the top three of this batch, and getting the Sword Bearer team captain privileges after passing the re-examination was practically a given, which was why Rein asked him.
“Us?”
“The five of us plan to form a squad together when the time comes!” Argus laughed as he said this.
Upon hearing this, Rein was taken aback!
Meanwhile, the two women beside him, Vinica and Evelyn, also paused their eating, and suddenly, two pairs of beautiful eyes turned towards the big, burly young men.
Shock, confusion, and incomprehension were evident in those beautiful eyes…
A squad led by a Great Knight with four Peak Knights?
What kind of odd squad was this?
Rein couldn’t help but mutter softly, “This is purely a meat cleaver team…”
“Hm? Lord Rein, what did you say?” Viery asked in confusion.
“Oh! I said I plan to invite these two lovely ladies here to join my team,” he clarified.
This caused Vinica and Evelyn to turn their heads towards Rein immediately.
“Of course, it’s my honor, Lord Rein,” the redheaded beauty Evelyn immediately stated with a beaming smile.
Almost at the same time, Vinica nodded, her bouncing twin ponytails expressing her eagerness to join.
In fact, Rein had also thought about inviting the two women to join the squad that was about to be formed.
Because for him, he could serve as the entire squad’s spear, shield, or even as the master archer.
Put simply, with his Weapon Master (Legendary) class panel, he could take on any role that involved physical attacks in the squad.
So, the best matches for him would naturally be third-level Wizard Apprentices, who could make up for his lack of witchcraft capabilities.
And Vinica, being a water-based Wizard specializing in bird transformations, was naturally no issue.
Even though Evelyn was dual-trained, her senior knight abilities didn’t count for much among the Sword Bearers; her success in the Obsidian Giant test relied mainly on her fire-based witchcraft ‘Flame Acceleration,’ making her more of a Wizard Apprentice.
This time, Angus and the others were stunned, staring at Rein with wide eyes.
Tsk, being strong really does have its perks!
Rein was planning to embrace both work and pleasure…
And the fact that both attractive and capable girls had agreed!

This… envy is inevitable!
Suddenly, they felt a sense of loss!
Because they realized their brusque squad couldn’t compare to Rein’s…
Moreover, he had not just one, but two types of allure…
“Um… Lord Rein, are you going to have just three people in your squad?” A recovered Viery couldn’t help but ask.
