Reidar was looking at his status screen with a smirk.

Though he was going to use them later, when the group finished getting the kids and the remaining teachers out of the school. The battle after they killed the level 12 Elite Rift-Sprite had not been easy due to the number of monsters, but it was certainly more manageable than the beginning. More people leveled up during the fight, though not by much. That extra strength helped them take down the Rift-Sprites faster—way faster. Most gained just one level, but a few even managed two. Basically, each person had to take out thirty-seven Rift-Sprites to win that fight. They only managed it because of Reidar’s Skill Sharing. Right away, everyone saw how powerful that ability was. Honestly, it felt broken. With Reidar on their side, any group could become unstoppable. The only thing they had to do was simply pool resources into him. Making him buy skills, and everyone would have that. Reidar noticed the greedy look on Malcolm’s face, which forced him to explain the skill wasn’t permanent. Well, actually, his trait allowed for them to get the skill too, but he hadn’t tested that feature yet, so he was not sure of how it worked. Besides, he had been in the three lakes for two days at best, and he didn’t trust these people as much. He decided to come here to rest, find a vendor, and give George a chance to find his wife. He was going to leave anyway. A kid rushed out of the school and hugged his mother. She’d been fighting right alongside everyone else, just to get him back. The kid looked thin and pale. The teachers had probably been rationing food to keep everyone alive. The gambling paid, but the kids were visibly worn out and weak. Reidar focused on some of the other notifications.

You have reached Level 24] [You have gained 0.5 attribute points to distribute.] Of course, everyone else got rewards for finishing the Nest Eradication and Operation Schoolyard Rescue quests too. They didn’t get the Strategic Alliance Development one, though—that seemed like something just for Reidar. Still, all those C.L.A.S.P. Points were enough to push everyone up another level. Malcolm hit level 13, and most of the others landed around level 10, give or take. Regardless, it had been a tremendous boon to the Three Lakes forces. Reidar then checked his inventory. Everyone most likely got it. It was unlikely that would happen, but at least if each one of the people who joined the fight got into a party, each one would have the skill, so, all in all, it was a great haul. —[SKILL DETAILS: Group Rally]— « Group Rally »—Tier 2 Type: Active (Area Effect) Range: 50 meter radius [Description] A leadership skill that temporarily boosts the morale and combat effectiveness of nearby allies through inspiring words and presence.

Only a touch was needed. However, all of that wasn’t the only boon Reidar got. The quest placed Reidar in front of thousands of targets, so he naturally increased his proficiencies. —[«SKILL PROFICIENCIES»]— Summon Rift-Sprite Squad 65% Summon Primal Pack 0% Summon Guardian Shade 9% Summon Bone Militia 12% Reidar couldn’t help but grin. Not only had he boosted his proficiencies enough to share his damage skills with others, but he’d also leveled up enough to finally use Summon Primal Pack. Sure, it was still sitting at zero proficiency, but that wouldn’t last long.
