Chief Bandit third job quest

So... this is alot different from back when I played GMS in 05-07, and I'm kinda confused because not even the internet is helping me much.

I've killed the dark lord clone, got the black charm.

Now the bbb site says this, "Return to Dark Lord and exchange the Black Charm for a Necklace of Strength. Return to El Nath after that and give the item to Arec."

But Dark Lord just says "Return to Arec".

Arec just says "Get me the necklace of strength"

So where do I get the necklace of strength?

 

You then go to the Holy Ground at the Snowfield, talk to the Holy Stone, give it a Dark Crystal and answer the question (Pizza!). After that, return to Arec and all should be well.

 

Ooh so no necklace needed? Okay. Thanks for the answer.

 

Yeah, 3rd job advance works fine but is a bit confusing!
