Re-Awakening: I Ascend with a Legendary class

The group left the restaurant district and ventured deeper into the residential quarters of Arklight City.

The architecture shifted dramatically as they walked.

Buildings became more artistic, more personal. Each structure seemed to reflect the desires and aesthetics of its creator or owner. Some floated entirely off the ground, tethered by chains of light. Others grew like living organisms, their walls pulsing faintly with bioluminescent patterns.

“According to the map, there are several types of housing available,” Ainen said, his eyes flickering as he processed the information. “There’s a residency block with all the same type of housing for a small group. And then there are bigger properties that we can modify to make them aesthetically pleasing to us in whatever style we prefer.”

The group checked the stuff in the middle while walking towards the most luxurious places in the city.

First, they checked residental complex labeled [Starlight Terrace], as it looked quite sci-fi and beautiful.

It was a series of open-air platforms connected by bridges of solidified light. Each platform held a small dwelling with transparent walls that could be toggled between clear and opaque. The view overlooked the entire district, offering a panoramic sight of the bustling city below.

“So the price is monthly, huh? It’s not like we can’t buy a property.” Clovelle raised her eyebrows.

“Yeah, that makes sense.” Saffa nodded. “People need to earn regularly and pay rregularly”

“This one is 10,000 Anchor Points per month, and look. It says the payment can be split paand id by up to five people, with each one paying no less than 2000.” Fraisea blinked.

“Not bad, but we are seven, and this is a bit small for our taste. And judging by the prices, I don’t think we can buy a place we desire with the points we have.” Ainen wryly smiled. “We’ll have to play more games and get Anchor Points first. Anyway, the better places are further away, so let’s first check the market that’s nearby. Almond wants to buy a material anyway.”

And so, the group made a turn towards the market.

There were many exotic resources and materials for one to power up. Of course, not in a direct sense.

But just like how Almond had cards that could turn materials into blades and use resources to modify Oblivion Spirits, other people had various decks and cards that could use resources to produce or do something to increase their combat power.

Or like Ainen, who can cook food with anything, even using hard materials or strange resources, as everything was an ingredient for him.

But there was one more use of the various resources.

Card Creator.

Almond and others found out about this thing at the most luxurious store in the city.

The only store that wasn’t in control of anyone but the system itself.

There were three types of Card Creators.

Low-stage Card Creator costing 10,000 Anchor Points.

Mid-stage Card Creator costing 50,000 Anchor Points.

And High-stage Card Creator costing 100,000 Anchor Points.

Each Card Creator had three slots to put resources in, and a keyword section to write the specific keywords to influence the resulting card. Once these four things are filled out, the user would have to go through a short trial.

Upon completing the trial, the user would be rewarded with three options, from whichthe user can pick one neutral card. Resources, the writing section, and trial ultimately determined the three options.

It was a costly thing. Aside from Card Creator costing Anchor Points, one would also need to buy resources.

“With the prices of resources, gears, items, and other stuff we are seeing in the market, the high-ranking games better give a lot of Anchor Points as a reward,” Lily said.

“Indeed.” Almond wryly smiled. “I wanted to buy a rather powerful exotic elemental resource for Alfred, but given the points I have right now, the max I can buy is a low-quality Tier-3 resource costing 500 Anchor Points.”

“So you’re not buying anything?” Ainen blinked.

“Nope. The thing I want, a Tier-6 Bloodsteller Verim Stone, costs 15,000 Anchor Points. So let’s go check the places first. Once we decide where we are going to live, we’ll start playing games to gather points and pay for a month.”

And so, the group left the market.

The second location Ainen had marked wasa more luxurious, refreshing, and energetic place in the cradle of nature’s peace.

[Rootbound Haven] was built into the base of an enormous tree that stretched so high its canopy disappeared into the mist above. The dwelling itself was carved into the living wood, with luxurious abodes on each branch and wooden that spiraled upward like a natural staircase.

Soft moss carpeted the floors. Bioluminescent fungi provided gentle lighting. The air inside smelled of earth and growth, peaceful and grounding.

“This one feels alive,” Saffa said, running her hand along the wooden wall. It was warm to the touch, pulsing faintly like a heartbeat.

A floating orb of light appeared, serving as their guide.

“Rootbound Haven units are basically a wide and large section of a branch.” It explained. “Each section can grow into a large 4-bedroom house, with its design and structure entirely up to the tenants.”

Everyone was impressed as they walked through this mega tree’s live stairs and watched the various houses.

The price was…50,000 Anchor Points per month. It can be split paid by up to five people, with each paying 10,000 Anchor Points.

But there was one more benefit. With consent from those who pay, they can let more people live in the house, up to five more.

Their third stop was [The Glass Pavilion].

It was exactly as its name suggested—a structure made entirely of crystalline glass that refracted light into different solid colors. Each unit was a small palace of transparency, where walls, floors, and ceilings could shift in opacity or color at the resident’s will.

“This is beautiful,” Clovelle murmured, staring at the kaleidoscope of colors dancing across the floor.

“It’s also completely exposed unless you adjust the settings,” Fraisea pointed out.

The attendant construct here was more elegant, dressed in flowing robes made of the same glass material.

“The Glass Pavilion offers maximum customization,” it said. “You can alter the structure’s appearance, reshape rooms, and even create additional floors. Colors, art, and everything can be modified at your will. However, the base unit’s size is fixed.”

These structures were on large empty areas, each taking a sizable space where exotic and colorful small palaces were built.

Its price was the same as Rootbound Haven. 50,000 Anchor Points, split paid by up to 5 people, and you can invite five additional people to live in for free.

The fourth option was [Ember Hearth], a dwelling made of black stone and burning with controlled flames.

The fire never consumed the structure—it simply existed, eternally warm, casting flickering shadows across the walls. The heat was comfortable, never overwhelming, and the flames responded to the residents’ emotions, shifting in color and intensity.

“This is intense,” Lily said, watching as the flames flared brighter when she stepped closer.

“It’s designed for those who resonate with a fire-type environment,” the attendant explained.

“Can it be turned off?” Saffa asked, ears flicking.

“No. The flames are the foundation of the structure. Without them, it ceases to exist.”

Afterward, the group went to check [Cloudspire Den], then [The Spiral Vault], and then [Celestial Garden Estate].

The group liked Cloudspire Den and Celestial Garden Estate more as they had bigger areas, were more aesthetically pleasing, and had ponds in open, unenclosed spaces like courtyards.

Naturally, the last three were also the most expensive, each one costing over 100,000 Anchor Points per month. Of course, these expensive places also had additional useful features.

Ultimately, the group set their sight on the Celestial Garden Estate, costing 150,000 Anchor Points per month.

“Now we have to earn that much fast,” Lily said as she opened the game interface in her status. “Let’s meet here after an A-rank game.”
