Chapter 24: Beginning of the Dungeon Raid

After reaching the dungeon, Zach turned to Aurora and said, “It’s about time you stop pouting.”

“I am not pouting,” Aurora said as she averted her face to the side.

“Then stop sulking.”

“I am not sulking.” Aurora sighed and shook her head in frustration. There was nothing she could do. After all, It was her fault to expect something from Zach.

“So, from which floor do you want to start?” Aurora asked.

“Can we resume our last progress?” Zach asked with a surprised look on his face.

“Not exactly. But suppose you cleared five floors last time, so you can start from the sixth floor. If you cleared nine floors last time, then you need to start from the sixth floor,” Aurora explained.

“So the boss floors are the checkpoint,” Zach muttered. “Wait, does that mean I can use my solo dungeon progress in the mixed dungeon?”

Aurora nodded and said, “However, you can’t use your mixed dungeon progress on the solo dungeon.”

“Makes sense.” Zach pondered for a while and glanced at Aurora from the corner of her eyes. “Before we go further, I want to ask you something,” Zach uttered with a curious yet calm look on his face.

“What is it?”

“It’s about the Classes.”

“What about it? Do you want to ask which class is the best?”

“No. I might sound stupid to ask this, but I am curious about it.”

“Go ahead and ask.”

“Suppose, if a swordsman class player tried to use a bow or a gun, doesn’t that mean the classes are useless?”

“They can indeed use any weapon they want, but that’s only at the basic level. Once they reach level 5, they won’t be able to equip any weapon other than the one that belongs to their respective class,” Aurora answered sincerely.

“I thought so. But what about the sword? Sword is a default weapon, and it can be used by any Class player, right?”

“Yes. But they won’t receive skills for using the weapon. Their stats for using the weapon won’t increase.”

Zach raised his brows and pondered for a while. ‘I am a cultivator, but I can use swords. It’s not as if cultivators can’t use swords, but it’s not beneficial for me. I can use sword-fighting as a backup combat style since it’s not going to benefit me. However, I can’t use any other weapon. I can learn spells by practicing, but that’s not the efficient combat style. There will be enemies and monsters who won’t let me cast the spell.’

Zach’s eyes widened as he thought of a plan. ‘What if… What if I become versatile? I already know how to use most of the weapons, so it doesn’t matter what weapons I use. However, I know I won’t get the skills of those weapons, but that doesn’t matter. I will use my cultivation spells to amplify the weapon’s stats temporarily.’

Once again, Zach had come up with a brilliant plan to use the weakness to his advantage. However, it wasn’t as easy as he was making it out to be. But he had the benefit of infinite MP, so it wasn’t impossible.

‘I will have to learn enchantment techniques.’

Aurora snapped her finger to get Zach’s attention. “Hey, bro! Are you there?” Aurora said in a different accent.

“… Don’t call me bro,” Zach said with a disgusted look on his face.

“Why not?”

“It sounds weird. And hearing ‘bro’ from your mouth makes me wanna puke,” Zach remarked with an even more disgusted look on his face.

Aurora stared at Zach with a solemn look on her face. Then, she smirked and grinned with a smug look on her face. “I will be calling you Zach bro from now on.”

Zach facepalmed himself and rubbed his hand on his face in frustration. He took a deep breath to calm himself and muttered, “Reasons why I hate girls. They do the very thing you told them not to do, and then they get on your nerves.”

“Can we go now? Or else, I will go alone in the solo dungeon,” Zach uttered and opened the portal.

“How many floors had you cleared in the solo dungeon?” Aurora asked and walked to the portal with Zach.

“10.”

“So we will be starting with floor 11… sigh,” she sighed.

“What’s with the sigh? And how many floors had you cleared?” Zach asked with a hint of curiosity in his voice.

“34. That’s where my two maids died,” Aurora answered with a sad look on her face. “I didn’t have any courage or mood to proceed further.”

“So are you saying that 34 floors are enough for me to reach level 14 like you?”

“I got some EXP reward from my personalized quests. But yeah, 34 floors should be enough to reach level 13 at least.”

Zach and Aurora entered the blue portal and proceeded to floor 11. Both of them grabbed their sword and stood in a defensive position.

“Let me warn you… don’t you dare steal my kill,” Aurora asserted.

“Right back at you. I will kill all the monsters I see, so if you don’t want me to steal your kill, make sure to keep up with me.” Zach scoffed. “Or maybe not, since that will help me get more EXP, and I will be able to level up faster.”

Zach and Aurora had a significant advantage until floor 34, at least. Aurora knew what type of monsters would spawn on the following floors, and she was familiar with their attacks.

Author’s Note – I have uploaded reference pictures of Aria and Aurora. You can see them in the comments section of chapter 10 and chapter 17. Or you can simply click on my profile and see them in my activity tab.

Also, please leave a review. We still need five more reviews to get the rating. I believe 24 chapters are enough to judge this book.
