n:Socket 1: Lord Slime Core; This staff has been imbued with the power of a Lord Slime. 100 HP 100 MP

nSocket 2: Empty:

n'Wow, what a jump!' With only two of the rewards, he'd already increased his battle capability quite a bit. He moved on to the next one.

n:Congratulations User, for completing a Team Dungeon solo. Please select a reward.

nOption 1: 1 TP, 1 SP, 2 random pieces of Uncommon equipment

nOption 2: 2 TP, 2 SP, 2 random pieces of Common equipment:

n'This is the other one I'll have a chance of obtaining again, although I doubt there will be any other Team Dungeon easier than the Slimes. Option 1.'

nThis time, a wardrobe appeared in front of him, being 6 feet tall and 4 feet across. The depth was around 2 feet. 'What the hell, this thing is massive.' He reached and opened both of the doors. A faint green light seeped out as he viewed the contents.

nThere was a massive wooden mallet. It looked almost like someone had reached into a tree and pulled it out. The head was 4 feet in length and had a diameter of about 2 feet. The shaft was as big around as his bicep.

nThere were iron handholds attached along the shaft for being able to grip and carry it. Geth tried to lift it but was barely able to drag it out of the wardrobe. The thing had to be over 600 pounds.

n'Well, maybe Zolis can use it..?' He thought a bit reluctantly, he wasn't sure exactly how strong the Strength attribute had made her.

nHe checked the description quickly to let her know what it could do. It would give 10 Strength, but also -5 Agility unless Strength was over 50. It had one socket available.

nThe other item was an Inventory Satchel. It was the size of a backpack and also had two straps on it for that purpose. The bag held 100 pounds worth of items, a large step up from his pouch.

nHe threw the bag over his shoulders and moved on.

n:Congratulations User, for being the first to clear a Team Dungeon solo. Please select a reward.

nOption 1: 2 TP, 2 SP, 1 random Skill Card

nOption 2: 4 TP, 4 SP, 2 random pieces of Uncommon equipment:

nHe raised his eyes at that one, it was definitely a hefty prize, and no one else in the world could receive it. This decision was tough, it wasn't easy to get TP, and 4 was either 20 levels or 4 Dungeons worth. Plus, he'd still get two pieces of Uncommon equipment.

nEven then, he knew that Skill Cards were hard to come by after the first one. Albus told him the only reason he'd gotten a second is because a Boss is guaranteed to drop one. This time he was quite reluctant, but he went with Option 1 again.

nThe Skill Card appeared, floating in the air in front of him. He grabbed it gently out of the air and viewed its description.

n:Corruption Aura; 150 MP, casts a dark aura in the vicinity around the caster. Aura causes damage over time to those standing within. Duration of 60 seconds. Range affected by Wisdom, amount of damage per tick affected by Intelligence:

nAlbus barely had time to turn the page before Geth had laid the card down. Two new pages formed, this time between Restoration and Inspection. The Rune that burned into his mind this time was a glassy purple, but it seemed the mist was constantly flowing in the Rune.

nThis was a massive boon and could be considered better than all of the other rewards combined, despite its high Mana cost. Now, there was only one more reward left to grab.

n:Congratulations User, on being the first to kill a Boss-type monster. Please select a reward.

nOption 1: 2 TP, 2 SP, 2 random pieces of Uncommon equipment

nOption 2: 2 TP, 2 SP, 10 AP:

nThis one made him hesitate again, but he ended up going with Option 2. They might need equipment, but those 10 AP were too precious. As usual, he distributed them between his Defense and Wisdom, along with the 3 AP he'd gotten from hitting Level 16.

nLooking back at the Battle Log, he found that he'd killed 11 Level 5 Slimes and 190 Level 1 Slimes. The Level 5's were giving him 30 Exp each and the 6's and 7's from earlier gave 35 and 40 respectively.

nThe Lord Slime had given him a whopping 750 Experience. He wasn't sure what a normal Level 10 would give him yet, but he knew it wouldn't be so much. After distributing AP, there were 7 TP and 8 SP left to spend.

nThe first thing he did was bump his two new Skils to Level 1, leaving him with 6 SP. Based on the cost to upgrade from 1 to 2, they were the equivalent rarity of State Change. Based on the costs, he could either upgrade State Change to Level 3, or he could upgrade two of his other Skills to Level 2.

nGeth decided to go with the second option, Leveling his two new Skills once more, leaving him with 2 SP. He was now 1 SP short of upgrading Inspection to Level 2, but the new Skills were now much more useful.

n:Restoration (Lvl 2) 75 MP

nDuration=30 Seconds (Wis x 0.3)

nHealing

/3 Seconds=10 (Int x 0.2) (HP x 2%):

n:Corruption Aura (Lvl 2) 200 MP

nRange=2 Feet (Wis x 2%)

nDamage

/5 Seconds=10 (Int x 0.2) Lasts 60 seconds:

nNow for the 7 TP he'd collected. There was no upgrade for Recovery, so he only had Mana Sense and Reflection. It only cost 1 TP each to move them both up to Level 1 from 0, so he started with that.

nHe noticed that Mana Sense only cost 3 TP to get to Level 2, while Reflection cost 5 TP. 'Albus, you said that Talents are Graded as well, right?'
