Breaking into the top 10,000 was enough to earn an Epic–tier piece of equipment.

Joanna’s strength ranked among the very best in the squad. Why should she carry someone who contributed nothing, trained half- heartedly, and still expect to share the honor?
In truth, she wasn’t the only one who felt that way.
Marlon and Samantha had long been dissatisfied with Sophie.
Otherwise, Samantha would never have taken the initiative to escalate the matter to the principal.
Joanna had merely competed fairly and eliminated a teammate through proper channels.
Who filled the vacancy afterward didn’t matter.
But in George’s mind, it mattered very much.
“Understood, Joanna. I’ll train harder and improve myself. But the ship–I insist on gifting it to you.”
Joanna gave him a flat look.
“I don’t trust you. Escape–related equipment is something I’ll either purchase myself randomly or craft personally. I won’t accept it
from others.”
Those words stabbed

“Then… Joanna, is there anything else you want? I–I could gift you an Epic–tier item. Not summoner equipment–warrior–type. Would that be acceptable?”
This time, Joanna truly paused.

A realization dawned on her.
At her current position, refusing gifts entirely could be more dangerous than accepting them.
Take Assurance Group, for example. They handled the scattered equipment and materials she earned from dungeon runs. Every month, they sent her natural foods as tokens of appreciation to keep her as a major client.
If she suddenly told them to stop-
Dorothy would likely be standing outside her villa the next day, begging to know what mistake she had made.
George was in a similar position. She had carried him repeatedly. Now, she had brought him into the Decennial Team.
He felt indebted.

And with the Decennial Tournament of Prodigies approaching, his strength wasn’t yet enough. Of course, he wanted to secure a powerful backer–to ensure she would protect him when necessary.
The Epic–tier gift carried that meaning.
He was offering a great deal.
“Fine. If you insist on giving it, I’ll accept.”
George lit up with joy and quickly arranged delivery.
It was indeed warrior equipment–not a weapon, but a pair of gauntlets.
Yet even as mere gloves, they radiated an intimidating aura.
“Replica: War God’s Might (Epic Tier): Strength +180,000, Physical Attack +600%, Attack Range +650 feet
“Special Effects: Titan Strength, Giant–form, Arm–Wrestling Invincibility, Explosive Attack Speed, God of War Strike.”
Clearly, this was a crafted replica. Perhaps the base materials were as Epic.

These gauntlets were valued at roughly 140 billion Starcoins.

Joanna did not intend to accept it without repayment. She would carry George ruthlessly–grind levels, secure first clears, and let him absorb as many Attribute Points as possible.
George reciprocated in his own way.
