Reincarnation of the Strongest Healer

Unbeknownst to the fiasco that occurred between Erica and her father, James, Xu Feng had arrived at the Town Hall once again.

The moment he entered the Town Hall lobby, the area was still crowded like previously, albeit much more manageable now.

'It seems like most players are now interested in the Silver Wind Guild now.' Xu Feng deduced inwardly.

"Sigh, forget it, that mysterious person had not come down since forever."

"Yeah, why did my Guild Leader want me to even camp here when that person is probably hiding? The Game Forum literally announced him outright, so why would he reveal himself?"

"Agreed, I might as well use this time to see when Guild Leader Gentle Wind is recruiting. At the very least, Silver Wind Guild is better than my current one."

As Xu Feng walked around, he heard numerous players discussing Gentle Wind's recruitment.

Their attention and focus are shifting at a rapid pace, with many even complaining about being forced to wait for some "mysterious" player.

It didn't take long for these players to feel a puff of rage as they decided to drop their assignment and follow the masses to test their luck in joining the Silver Wind Guild.

"Hey, brother, are you going to apply to the Silver Wind Guild as well?"

As Xu Feng was minding his own business, he was suddenly called out by a random player.

Smiling softly, he shook his head in response. "I'm too low-level, so I definitely won't be accepted."

"Ahh? Is that so? Good luck to you, brother!" With Xu Feng's clever response, the player no longer bothered him as he followed ahead of the masses.

Meanwhile, Xu Feng's smile turned bitter as he recalled his level.

'That damn system is really cruel! How is the Inferno Tyrant regarded as a "normal" monster and gave me 1 percent of the total experience points only?' He cursed silently.

Despite his cursing, 1 percent of the total experience points of the Inferno Tyrant still helped him level up once. Though it could have been much more, and that was what made him frustrated.

Inferno Tyrant was considered a raid boss, and not a normal monster. So for the harsh debuff to apply made zero sense. It was illogical and complete bullcrap.

Alas, there was no way he could voice his complaint to anyone because the System itself was like an overlord in the game. Whatever it stated was the final verdict, and no one else could overrule that.

While he was frustrated by the outcome, Xu Feng was spotted by a familiar receptionist, Sandy. She was just about to open her mouth to talk, most likely to greet him, but Xu Feng quickly signaled her to stop.

He then pointed at her desk, seemingly trying to act as a regular adventurer.

It was a good thing that Sandy understood the signal and didn't expose him on the spot. After all, there were still some players in the lobby, waiting to turn in their mission for completion.

Thus, if Sandy openly greeted him, then wasn't that equivalent of announcing his special privilege or identity on the spot.

Sometime later, Xu Feng walked toward the receptionist's desk and asked in a low but subtle tone, "What's the matter? You seemed quite frantic."

"Ah, Adventurer Lin Feng, surely you must be teasing me. Didn't you know your deeds have been spread across the town already?" Sandy responded, even flashing a warm smile.

"My deed?"

"Of course, to complete the notorious Scorched Caverns dungeon at your level is astonishing. Even Herbalist Elias wanted me to send his congrats to you on his behalf."

"Is that so?" Having cleared up his initial confusion, he now found it surprising that news of his achievement had already spread to the NPCs at such an alarming rate.

Although there were many more members on the list of completion, his name was quite familiar to the likes of Sandy and Elias, given their prior interactions.

"Mhmm, Herbalist Elias knew you were going to achieve something big with the rare herbs you have given to him. Hence, he told me in advance to provide you with this if you happen to make some big achievement." Sandy smiled brightly as she informed, handing him a silver shield-like badge.

As Xu Feng glanced at the silver shield-shaped badge, he received a system notification prompt.

System: Due to your meritorious and amazing achievement, you have been granted a Noble Status, Baron!

'A noble status just like that?' Xu Feng was astonished at the reward. The noble status was something every player vied for because it allowed them to gain many accesses and privileges that would benefit them thoroughly.

Benefits such as being granted the authority to construct any buildings, hiring NPC guards, and even owning a piece of land within the game world, were among the many privileges of a Noble Status.

Additionally, players with Noble Status often received special quests and invitations to exclusive events, providing unique opportunities for advancement and prestige.

It was a remarkable reward that could significantly enhance Xu Feng's influence and capabilities within the game.

'Let me check the noble status first.' Xu Feng quickly investigated the noble status he received.

After all, some noble status was limited to certain regions and areas only.

They are not universal and only the places that recognized or acknowledged the noble status could be utilized.

A few minutes later, Xu Feng's expression remained stoic on the surface, but inwardly, he was dancing in joy.

The noble status was not limited to the Riverwood Town, but the Aetheria Empire. The difference between having a noble status limited to the town and the empire was massive.

If the status was limited to the town, then once he left the town, he would become an ordinary adventurer again.

However, with his noble status limitation on the Aetheria Empire itself, any town he would visit in the future that was under the jurisdiction of the empire would have to treat him with a certain respect.

'Forget about the 1 percent experience points gained! I'll take that kind of punishment anytime in exchange for a greater reward!' He exclaimed inwardly.
