"Dammit, and here I thought the system would let us cheese this and get a bunch of exp and items, well, this is better than nothing I guess." Reign said as he looked down at the items they had received.

Almost all of the items were useless, Tank already had his axe, and even though this one was of a higher rank, he would in time unlock more of his axe's power and it would naturally rank up before reaching its previous power, which incredibly was the highest rank possible below the Transcendent realm, rank Z.

After getting the first skill and gaining recognition from the emperor's spirit, Tank had already unlocked a bit of the axe's full potential, raising its rank to A+ and increasing its power a bit.

As for the dagger, even though it was a rank S one and Shadow could use it, it wasn't one that he was really comfortable with using. The dagger was created entirely from bone and it actually increased strength and spirit only.

The skill it had allowed for a powerful attack to be unleashed, one that would definitely do a lot of damage, but its bulky size, the bonuses, and the ability of the dagger to actually increase in length and be used as a sword was simply too much for Shadow who looked at it with a weird expression on his face.

"Yeah, it's good but, I can't use this man," Shadow complained to Reign and the others as he held the bulky dagger in his hand, the dagger was actually so large that it was hard to hold it with one hand.

"So, we're selling it?" Asked Reign as Shadow nodded his head and put the dagger in their shared inventory.

"Alright, so out of all the items, we only need the wand huh?" Reign commented as he held the wand in his hand. The wand, just like its name suggested, was made for mages and mainly increased the power of spells.

"Well, none of us really is a real mage, but only Laura is able to cast them, so she gets these by default," Wolf said as Reign nodded his head and gave the wand to Laura who looked at it with amazement.

"I'll be able to cast the spells faster with this, not to mention the fact that their power will increase as well, I was close to learning the third spell anyway, with this I'm certain I can get the grasp of it quickly," Laura said as she looked at the wand. Even though her main skills and attacks were made with demonic energy, the spells she could cast with the help of the tome were incredibly powerful and the wand would let her not only increase their power but cast them faster which was of great help since she was a sitting duck any time she started casting them.

Even though it pained them that none of the items the bosses dropped were usable to them, all of the items were low-tier rank S anyway. The rewards they would get from defeating such powerful monsters while being so low leveled were definitely much greater and perhaps even high-tier or peak rank S would have dropped, but because they didn't kill them by themselves entirely, they only got these.

"Alright, it's time to go back, it seems we can only make the base in the crevice as no safe zones are available anywhere nearby." Reign said with a sigh before they all started walking back.

They had to be careful now, even though they managed to defeat the two monsters with relative ease, there were still injuries and they spent a bunch of mana and stamina in order to deal with the two, if a powerful Tier I monster was to attack them, they would be in trouble.

"Hey, what was the thing you got from the waterfall anyway, the croc seemed really pissed off that you took it." Reign suddenly said to Shadow.

"I don't really know, to be honest, I didn't have time to check it out," Shadow said as he scratched the back of his head before taking the gem out. He had immediately put the gem in the inventory after taking it as the crocodile had attacked so quickly.

"Holyy!" Shadow suddenly exclaimed as he looked at the gem with his eyes wide open.

"I think I know why the croc had that weird frost ability."

"Huh?"

"Look!" Shadow quickly shared the description of the item as everybody stood still and stared at it.

[ Gem of Eternal Ice ]

Description: A gem that was created in place of extreme coldness. After a millennium, any place of extreme coldness would give birth to treasures, such gems being one of them. The gem will never stop releasing cold air and frost and if put in a good place it can allow people to sense the power of frost and learn to use it for themselves.

"This, this thing can actually allow people to get an ability?" Reign asked as he stared at the gem in Shadow's hand.

"Yeah, damn it, take this thing man," Shadow said as he threw the gem at Wolf who quickly caught it.

"Hey, what the-" Wolf stopped as he stared at Shadow's hand which was covered in frost.

"The description is true, it really is cold." Said Shadow as he tried to warm up his hand while Wolf simply used his ability to withstand the gem's coldness.

"So if we put this in the territory." Beast suddenly spoke.

"Then everybody will have the chance to get the ability." Laura finished his words as she also stared at the gem. She had seen similar things in the other world, but that was a world filled with incredibly powerful beings and even then, it was very rare to find such items.

"Great, this way everybody will become stronger, soon we probably won't even need to help out that much and can focus on increasing our strength, and then, then we can go back home." Said Reign as he and Shadow looked at each other with a smile.

The biggest reason they were trying to become so strong wasn't simply because of survival, it was because they wanted to find a way back to New York and see Shadow's parents again. Shadow still chatted with his dad and mom using the social hub and they were fine, his dad had also gone through the first evolution and seems to be quite powerful.

Since their safety was not a problem, then they didn't need to scramble to find a way and could take some time to become stronger before going there. From the description that Shadow's father had given them, New York was currently a hell hole and incredibly powerful monsters could be found there, even he, a now Tier I fighter was still most active in the surroundings and rarely went deep inside the city itself.

"Alright, let's go back, get the teleport ready and put this thing somewhere." Said Shadow as they all slowly made their way back to the territory. Evening was approaching and they definitely didn't want to be on the mountain after that, the sooner they got back to the grasslands, the better.
