n“Great, now the system is **ing instigating me,” I muttered after reading the description, but when I dragged my eyes downwards to the reward, I couldn’t help but smile.

nIt was so intriguing that I could barely contain my excitement, but it was quickly interrupted by the cry of an ungodly-looking beast.

nIt had the body and tail of a lion, while its heads were made up of three serpent heads that blasted various elements at the dashing Cy.

n“Should we step in?” Aisa asked jokingly, but after seeing my dead calm face, she sighed and prepped her sniper.

nBOOOOOOM

nShe let out a single warning shot which blasted through the outer skin of the lion’s body, only to reveal a hide of scaly armor inside, somewhat revealing the true body of this damn monster.

nIts heads snapped towards us in an almost grotesque way, grossing out Aisa, who gagged before firing another shot.

nHer skill was more than enough to pierce the beady eyes of this thing, and when it collided with one of them, the skull burst open.

nThe bullet somwhat imploded inside the thing’s brain, so it’s obvious the monster wouldn’t survive for long… if it wasn’t for its two other heads.

nROOOOOOAAAAAAAAAR

nThe monster let out an ungodly roar, allowing blue flames to spurt from its slimy and smelly mouth.

nSlowly, I swung my spear around while eyeing Cy, who gave me the middle finger, already expecting what I was going to do to this thing.

n“Spear Coating Berserk Coating Empower,”

nMy body filled with a foreign strength, and as all the buffs mingled into a singular aura, a blood-red miasma seeped out of my blade.

nMy muscles bulged, and the last thing I heard before tearing the monster in half was,

n“FUCK YOU!” Cy shouted as he dashed to the side and watched my blade tear through one of the heads, with one surprisingly getting out of the way in time.

n“Tch… Slippery ass monster,” I muttered before freezing all the spewing blood in the air and forming them into my own weapons that pricked the other head like needles.

nSlowly, the light faded from its eyes… but Aisa suddenly took out her daggers and struck them with a bolt of chaining lightning.

nIt bounced around within the cave, hoping to escape but ultimately getting absorbed by Aisa’s daggers.

nFWOOOM

nThe sound of her daggers slashing through the air wasn’t the usual cut you would hear, but instead, that of vibrating lightning which cooked the beast from the inside out.

nSmaller bolts of lightning escaped from the thing’s body, piercing through the softer underside of the monstrous scales.

nBOOM

nBut, not enough pressure was able to escape, causing the monster to completely implode from the inside out with sparks of lightning getting flung across the room.

n“Did you know you can artificially create dungeons?” I muttered as I kicked the corpse to the side and ran up next to Cy, who slowly opened the treasure chest.

n“Is this one artificial?”

n“Nah, I think it’s due to the tomb becoming so filled with the miasma of the ancestor that it maybe thought it was mana… or something… I don’t know how it **ing works, okay? I’m just taking a guess,” Aisa muttered, wiping the blood off of her face and staring into the beautiful and grand treasure chest.

n“It’s pretty good,” We all muttered in unison before taking a step back and eyeing each other, our bloodlust saying everything that needed to be said.

n…

n“Huff… huff… huff… huff… I-I win! I WIN!” Cy shouted as he held up his clenched fist into the air, just waiting for the world to see.

n“How did we lose to this asshole in rock-paper-scissors?” Aisa muttered while rubbing her evolved and much better eyes.

n“I uhhh… I don’t know,” I muttered, and Aisa stared deep into my soul, scraping the very pits of it with her slimming pupils.

n“Are you purposely acting like you just lied, or are you slipping up just this once?” She asked.

nI, of course, let Cy win as neither of us needed this. In fact, Cy didn’t need this either, but the thought of giving Orme this much power just didn’t sit right with me.

nSo, who is the weakest out of all of the four of us, with Luna left out? Well, of course, it’s Cy…

nHe is definitely the most skilled, but in terms of destructive power, he just doesn’t have that oomph, y’know. Or should I say strong skill?

nWithout any systematical skills, he could destroy us in a one-versus-one, but when skills are involved, we all just have that single skill that puts us over the edge.

nMine is Tangible Bloodlust, Aisa has Funeral of the Storm, Findir has Wind King’s Rein, and Bella has… well, she has multiple destructive skills in her arsenal.

nBut why would I ever make him go to a different weapon when he is so skilled with the spear? It’s because of this sword proficiency skill.

nIt might lower his talent with the spear, but he is strong enough with that, so I believe having an arsenal of weapons will allow him to have an even greater arsenal of skills once he evolves.

n“Thanks,” Cy suddenly muttered as we all turned to leave the massive cavern.

nGeez… he knew I let him win… Now, let’s see this side quest reward.
