SSS Awakening: I Can Class Change at will-Chapter 321: Task Complete!

The organizations that had unknowingly harbored these infiltrators faced intense scrutiny and public criticism. The Awakener’s Association, along with several major awakener groups, issued formal apologies to all victims affected by the attacks, acknowledging their failure in screening and oversight that had enabled such infiltration.

"We accept full responsibility for the security failures that allowed these individuals to operate within our organization. Our vigilance was insufficient, and innocent people paid the price for our negligence." The Association’s public statement read.

Beyond apologies, concrete action followed. The Association and affected groups established heavy reconstruction funds, contributing trillions of dollars toward rebuilding Zone D and providing compensation to families who had lost loved ones. Medical care, housing assistance, and financial support were made available to all survivors.

New security protocols were implemented across all major awakener organizations—better background checks, and counter-intelligence measures designed to prevent future infiltration.

The rebuilding efforts became symbols of resilience and community solidarity, but the scars from the attack would remain visible for months to come.

Inside the First Sanctuary, Moon’s grin stretched across his entire face in satisfaction as he stared at the notification flashing across his retina.

"Finally, it’s done."

[Kill Fifty level 25 creatures classified at S-Rank power level alone: 50/50] - Complete

[Copy and comprehend 5 Uncommon/Rare or higher ranked skills: 5/5] - Complete

[Gain a Legendary Rank Skill: 0/1]

Two of his three evolution requirements had officially been completed. During the long week of hunting, Moon had spent most of his time clearing The Grand Horizon and its surrounding regions. He’d managed to locate and eliminate ten S-rank beasts within The Grand Horizon’s vast territory, while finding the remaining targets in nearby hunting zones.

His storage ring now contained more than twenty-five S-rank beast corpses, including their valuable cores. Beyond that, he’d gained hundreds of A-Rank beast corpses that would provide extra side income.

Moon calculated that after selling his entire inventory, combined with his existing net worth, his total wealth would exceed 130 million dollars—more than enough to purchase whatever equipment or resources he might need for the challenges ahead.

During this week, Moon had also returned to Earth several times for status updates. Upon his first return, he discovered that the familiar zone where he’d lived for years no longer existed—replaced by a construction zone slowly rebuilding from ruins.

He didn’t need detailed explanations to understand that something catastrophic had occurred they had escaped. After receiving briefings about what occurred during his absence, Moon felt profound gratitude that his group had taken refuge in the sanctuaries during the crisis. They would have been direct victims of the Ascender-level attacks if they’d remained on Earth.

An entire zone had been obliterated—his apartment building had also been vaporized along with everything else.

Fortunately, aside from cherished memories associated with the zone, Moon didn’t have any significant belongings here. The apartment had been rented rather than owned, which meant he’d suffered no direct financial losses—that burden fell entirely on the landlord.

’Smart decision to rent instead of purchase,’ he reflected internally. ’The Association will probably distribute compensation in installments to cover the maximum number of victims simultaneously rather than paying full amounts immediately.’

Zone D was no longer habitable for civilian residence, not for the next month at least. The nearest viable alternative was Zone C, where the S-Rank gate he’d cleared had originally emerged. That area remained the most familiar to him since it was the only other zone he’d spent some time exploring.

Checking his phone, Moon found regular status updates from both Selene and Yara. These brief messages served as their method of confirming safety during transitions between sanctuary visits.

After sending them both response messages, Moon also contacted Kael to check on his friend’s wellbeing following the widespread attacks.

Moon pocketed his phone and headed toward one of the Glassy Group facilities in Zone C. Massive rewards awaited him for his successful base reclamation missions, plus he had an enormous inventory of beast materials to sell.

After concluding his business transactions, Moon planned to return immediately to the sanctuary. Over the past week, he’d gathered several promising leads about locations where exceptionally powerful "S-rank beasts" had been reported. This intelligence came from multiple sources—word of mouth, Internet forums, and awakener community discussions.

Based on the gathered information, Moon believed there was significant probability that one of these reports actually described a Supreme creature. The details about beasts capable of eliminating other S-rank opponents with relative ease, combined with several other tips strongly suggested encounters with Supreme Rank creatures rather than merely powerful S-Rank creatures. 𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦

"I need to go properly prepared this time," Moon muttered as he entered the imposing skyscraper.

The hunt for his final evolution requirement—a Legendary skill—was about to begin in earnest. But first, he would ensure he possessed every possible advantage before facing whatever Supreme-level challenge awaited him in the deep depths of the First Sanctuary.

Inside one of the many branches of the Glassy Group, Moon was quickly escorted to meet with one of the facility’s leading managers.

"Mr. Outlaw, it’s genuinely a pleasure to meet you in person," the middle-aged Evolver said warmly, extending his hand with a broad smile. Although he was greater in evolution rank and power, he didn’t dare underestimate Moon’s significance within the organization.

Being personally recruited by the Glassy Group’s chairman wasn’t something that happened casually, not to mention the direct orders from higher management to provide Moon with exceptional treatment and priority service.

Moon explained the completion of his base reclamation missions, detailing how he’d successfully cleared both facilities and eliminated the hostile forces occupying them.

"The agreed rewards were an S-rank weapon of my choice, plus 5% of the monthly income both bases generate going forward," Moon confirmed.

After consulting his records and verifying the mission status, the manager nodded with satisfaction.

"Indeed, sir, that’s completely accurate. Your missions are marked as complete and ready for compensation.

Regarding the S-rank weapon, you have two options available. We can either have one personally crafted to match your specific combat requirements, or you can select from our existing premium inventory."
