The black market was one the hardest place to find if you didn't have connections, full of corrupt officials, assassins, slave traders and all around bad people. Of course, there were some good people there, however, it wouldn't be long before they change.
"Sigh, how am I supposed to find the black market? Its not as if I could ask random people, maybe I should follow suspicious people? No, hmm..." Lief thought as he walked out of the Adventurers Guild and headed towards the market.
Lief was so engrossed in thinking he had zoned out whilst walking and bumped into something rock solid and he almost lost his standing!
"Ow!" a feminine voice rang through Liefs ears.
"Huh...?" Lief's thoughts were interrupted by the person he had just bumped into.
The "rock solid" thing Lief had bumped into was actually a girl about 5.4, she had fiery blonde hair and was dressed in a red tinted set of "Heavy Armour".
[Wilma] (Otherworlder)
Age: 28
(Level 45)
(Hero Level 51)
'Hero? I haven't heard about that class, I wonder what it does?' As Lief was thinking that he had a pop up:
[Hero]
Restricted to Otherworlders- Condition not met.
Can use all armour,weapons at 75% power but no gear at 100%.
Can gain skills used for all Classes if "Hero" has sufficient Class points.
Gains 5% extra exp.
You will be unable to max out any skills.
'Oh... Even if I was an otherworlder I probably wouldn't want a class like that, never being able to max a skill? That means that you wouldn't ever reach the apex.'
Adam had already explained to Lief about Class points earlier, in short, they are only earned through doing certain missions from your class and are used to unlock your classes skills.

"Watch where you're going, kid!" She yelled as she scowled at Lief.
"I'm sorry, it's my fault." Lief sincerely apologised
The woman looked at Lief for a moment before smiling cockily and saying: "Have a good day, fucker." and walking off.
"Um, bye! My names Lief, not fucker though!" lief smiled back before continuing to walk towards the market.
Wilma flinched and turned back in shock at his words but soon continued to walk away whilst thinking to herself 'He must be a rural person, haha, idiot.'

The Market.
Lief watched the crowds of people as he thought about how he would get to the black market, he could think of many, many ways but the chances of those succeeding were low and they would be tedious.
However, at that moment, Lief remembered something.
The ability that had scared beyond belief during his time in the Cultivation Vault.
The ability that allowed him to go out of his body.
He hadn't used it since his first time but, if he used it now and flew underground would he not find the black market then?
Lief really hoped that the black market was underground because if it wasn't, Lief had no idea of where else it could be.
However, if Lief were to do it this way how would he navigate when he was down there? Would he just fly in circles and gradually increase the size of the circle? What if the black market ended up being really low down, he would spend a longer than he would if he tried following people wouldn't he?
Lief decided he would firstly go somewhere he couldn't be seen, he couldn't leave his body unattended in the middle of the street, what if someone thought he died?
He decided he would go to the inn and soak himself in a tub of water.

The trip back was uneventful, Lief unlocked his door and grabbed a cheap metal tub that was already placed in his bathroom by the Inn and filled it with cold water before slowly lowering himself into the tub.
After enjoying the feeling of being immersed in the water he began to think 'Separate, separate' however, even after several tries it just wouldn't work.
He thought back to his first time going into his ghost form but he just could not remember how it started...

Current level- 1 Exp 0s/100s

Current cooldown- 12.5 seconds.
To level this skill you must spend the required time Out-Of-Body.
Due to the excitement of activating his ability he didn't realise the popups wich automatically minimised as he flew straight through the floor, passing through another empty room before going through the ground.
The sight was unexpected to Lief, there was no dirt, no stone, anything natural seemed to be invisible!
He looked glanced around and noticed a few coffins and a few unrecognisable blocks in the far distance.
Lief ignored these and flew down towards the huge open rectangle like space that was pretty deep down, it was the only place underground that had living people so Lief had guessed it was the right place.
He neared one of the several passageways to the surface and walked through the wall, however, before he could look around and take in the sights he had another notification.
[Warning: Out-Of-Body skill ends in 5 seconds, to avoid death please go into body]

Three hundred years ago multiple meteors broke into earth's atmosphere and landed in various places. The meteors change the world. By releasing strange substances into the earth, air, and water the planet started to change. It was not until ten years later that the first batch of superhumans was born. They had abilities that could not be explained. Superspeed. Superstrength. Magic. The superhumans showed the world that all of it was possible. They called the abilities EXO and the people who wielded such an ability, EXO users. They quickly found out that not every EXO was the same. One EXO user had one EXO ability and what that ability was could be categorized into one of three types. Offensive, Defensive or Support. The government was the first to act after five years. Every EXO user must be subjected to whole new laws and they must get their abilities under control. Specialized schools were built all across the world that were made to train them. Under the pretense of saying it was to develop their abilities, the government was actually building an army. Humans were not the only ones to change…
