Chapter 383
"I thirst for light, yet, I can’t walk out from the shadows . "


These were Doan’s last words . They were also the inscriptions written on the gates of the Ravenholdt Manor .
Ravenholdt Manor was the name of a location, but it also pointed towards an organization – the Assassin League . Although was secretive and most were unsure if this organization even existed, the members of the Assassin League were spread across the entire world .
Doan was once a member of the Ravenholdt Manor .
As a hunter from Ravenholdt Manor, he became the knight of Silver Hand and fell in love with his old friend’s daughter . Later on, he joined the Scarlet Crusade and lived in seclusion in this small library .
Nobody knew his true identity .
He also had a thirst for the light . Perhaps little Abbendis was his light, but unfortunately, the great difference in age forced him to stay in the shadows .
Following the death of Doan, the system announcement finally arrived – another First Clear, and it was a First Clear in Nightmare mode no less . In the short span of a day, Ruling Sword had taken two First Clears!
The world channel had gone wild, but everyone was used to it .
March Rain leveled up to level thirty, but Azure Sea Breeze had died a little too early . It was a tragedy that he couldn’t receive any experience .
Hachi Chan and March Rain resurrected their dead team members and began to split the loot .
"It’s all on you now; don’t disappoint us," Lu Li said as he anxiously patted Remnant Dream’s shoulders .


It wasn’t a guaranteed drop for the item he wanted, even in Nightmare mode .
He wanted the Ravenholdt Emblem, so that he could join the Ravenholdt Manor faction, or rather, the Assassin League .
From the years where the Horde and Alliance faction were at war against each other, many organizations, both big and small, remained . For example, there was the Cenarion Circle, Ravenholdt Manor, MI7, Tirisfal Council, Silver Dawn…
Some of these organizations had a faction background, some had a race background, while others had a class background, but regardless, they all had their own norms and history to stand by .
Lu Li wanted to join the Assassin League, not only for their strange and rewarding quests, but also because he liked the fearless attitude of this organization .
There were no rules in Assassin League; you could whatever you wanted . You could even assassinate the executives of the organization if you ever received such a quest .
It would be okay even if you killed Duke Jorach Ravenholdt .
Since his previous life, Lu Li had been wanting to join this organization, so he had been paying attention to the details surrounding it .
As a secretive organization, the Assassin League rarely appeared with its own name . Most of the time, the organization identified itself as Ravenholdt to outsiders, but in reality, Ravenholdt was only a small part of this massive organization .
It was hard to say how many people were actually in the League . It was quite possible that your significant other or the granny next door was a scout for the organization . Some say that for every five people in Azeroth, one of them would be working for the Assassin League .
Of course, throughout their entire lives, most of these members wouldn’t even know that they were actually working for the league .
Only around a few thousand people were truly a part of the Assassin League and amongst these people, only a few of them were professional assassins . Most of these people were known by outsiders for their other identities, such as knowledgable Archmages, Demon Slayers, leaders of mercenary groups, bandit leaders, historians . . . The identities were countless .


What Lu Li wanted to do was to become a real member of the Assassin League, just like Doan .

To do so, he had to acquire a Ravenholdt Emblem .
With the knowledge from his reincarnation, he had three available targets .
At the current stage, Doan was his greatest chance . The other two targets were all leaders of large organizations and they were all around level forty to fifty .
Remnant Dream looted her first item, which was a rare material .
The second was a Gold grade equip – Robe of Doan . This was an exquisite magic class equipment, and after Remnant Dream shared the attributes, everyone exclaimed in surprise .
Lu Li’s mind wasn’t too focused on it .
Two chances had already been lost, but there were still a few items left . Even though this was Nightmare mode, the boss wouldn’t drop more than five items .
"Wow, another Gold grade equipment! Mmm, Hachi Chan, it seems like this is useful for you . If you call me big sister, I’ll give it to you . "
Lu Li’s expression wasn’t impressed .
"What’s wrong?" March Rained asked . Even if there wasn’t any gear for Lu Li, he usually wouldn’t be too upset .
"Nothing, I’m just not focused . Girl, quit playing . Loot all the items, or else, I’ll let someone else loot it next time," Lu Li said, trying to hold back his impatience .
As soon as she heard this, Remnant Dream quietened down .
Her tiny hands reached out as Lu Li held his breath .
"Huh, what’s this? How come there’s no attribute description for this? Is this a badge?" With her skinny arms, Remnant Dream dragged out a grey emblem, her face showing a surprised expression .
"I’m taking this . No objections, right?" Lu Li used his authority as a captain to distribute the item to himself .
Although the others were curious about the emblem, Lu Li didn’t plan on explaining, so there was nothing they could do about this .
As a captain who had led them to another miracle, no one would have any objections if he wanted something .
The front of the emblem was the outline of a manor . The current Ravenholdt Manor looked completely different, so the outline was most likely what the manor looked like a long time ago . On the back of the emblem was the imprint of a few words .
"May death bring you to rest . "
This was Doan’s last item . The old Mage had offered two Gold grade equips, one rare material and a mysterious emblem .
Besides these, Azure Sea Breeze received a skill point reward, slightly calming his rage from being abandoned .
After this came the system reward for their First Clear .
Lu Li received an equip . Even thought it was only a level 30 Silver grade equip, it was a rare piece – a necklace .
Bladed Ebon Amulet (Silver): Accuracy +15%, Poison Damage +40%, Special Effect: Certain chance to reflect close-combat damage taken, Level Requirement 30, Durability 52/52 .
Lu Li had been using the Rager’s Pendant for a long time .
Rager’s Pendant (Steel): Hit+10%, Reduces Ice Magic Damage by 5%, Level Requirement: LV10 .
Durability: 32/32 . (Part of the Rager Equipment Set, exclusive to melee professions) .
It was originally a set, but the Rager Bracer had already been replaced, which left the necklace in an awkward position .
The 5% ice magic damage reduction was decent, but it still wasn’t enough . The small amount of damage reduction didn’t make much difference for Lu Li .
The Bladed Ebon Amulet had way better attributes, which was to be expected from a level 30 Silver grade equipment .
Thieves still need their accuracy attribute, which effectively raised their damage . The reflection of close-combat damage was a good special effect as well, with the only down side being that it required good luck . Lu Li wasn’t the best with his luck .
What he valued the most was actually the extra 40% poison damage; this was such a good attribute for Thieves who use poison .
Currently, it was still not possible for the system to reward Gold grade equips – level 30 Silver grade equips were the limit . Everyone was satisfied with what they had received, but unfortunately, only March Rain was able to wear her equipment . The others still needed to level up first .
