Novel Full 192 Items
I pondered for a moment before going to get up. Luckily Grace let go of me and sat up with a face full of smiles as I moved. But as I walked over to the pile of items, I noticed she stayed three steps behind me with her hands folded in front of her. It was a very strange feeling. Even Annie never acted like this, and she was always stiff about her job. But I did not dare say anything about her actions in case she tried to take her own life again.
I looked at the first item, which was a leather chest piece: “Appraisal.”
[Shaman’s Chest Guard]
[Rarity]: Rare
[Defense]: 200
[Vitality]: 50-(0)ᴠʟ.
Seeing the information, I suddenly felt that this whole dungeon was messing with me! I mean, really? Why do the items have stats!?
[Shaman’s Belt]
[Rarity]: Rare
[Defense]: 40
[Intelligence]: 20 (O)ᴠʟ
Each one had some form of defense and bonus stats to it. And this was just the armor that was laid out. There was a huge axe lying in the pile as well!
[Shaman’s Protective Axe]
[Rarity]: Rare
[Attack Power]: 600
[Strength]: 60
[Vitality]: 35
I rubbed my head, seeing these items. But in a way, this was also good as well. Since only Adel and I had systems at this time, no one had any way of really powering themselves up except for self buffs, so this would help our progress a lot. With this thought in mind, I began giving out the items to those I thought would benefit from them the most at this time. As for the Axe…. It took four people to carry it, and I seemed to be the only one able to lift it with one hand. So it was decided that I would take it. To be honest, I am not sure how helpful this will be, but I guess there is nothing stopping me from using a different weapon. It’s not like my swordsmanship is anything decent. And I could swing the axe just as well as my sword.
I did not plan to take anything, but there was no reason to waste something that would give me bonuses. My sword was basically a trash item compared to this axe. But there was one thing that was off about this axe….. It was almost half as tall as I am!
Luckily with it slanted to the side, it will stay just above the ground, allowing me to walk around normally. The other thing that kind of amazed me was that the items, no matter how big they were, instantly fitted to the person wearing them, even if it was too small or too big.
“Alright, everyone, rest up. We will have a hard time ahead of us.” I also needed to rest. I have not slept for many days besides the few hours I got after Grace was safe. I did not wait for anyone to answer as my eyes began to grow heavy. I walked over to the side of the boss room and leaned up against the wall. As soon as I closed my eyes, I could feel my consciousness slipping away.
“What are you doing!? Let her sleep on my lap!” Adel’s voice woke me up as I felt my head being pulled in some direction.
“Master only needs her servant, me, to allow her to rest properly. Unnecessary and unrelated people can just go die.” Grace, you just told the princess of the kingdom to go die…. While I did wish to say something, I felt my head being tugged in another direction once more.
I am starting to think these two are doing it on purpose. Their little spat continued for a good couple of minutes before I finally became too annoyed: “Can you both cut it out!?”
“Ah! Master, I am sorry!” Grace cried out while suddenly kneeling to the ground once more. Adel, on the other hand, only snorted and looked the other way.
“Grace, please stop bowing at everything little thing. And Adel, I keep telling you not to fight with Grace! You two get along just fine but fight over the weirdest things! You both almost ripped my head off just now!” My neck was really sore! I don’t understand why they fight so much. And every time they do fight, it has something to do with me, which makes it even more confusing.
(O)ᴠʟ “But she…” Adel wanted to argue, but I cut her off and shook my finger at her. “No means no!”
“I’m not a pet!” Adel yelled out while pouting.
I chuckled and reached out to scratch her chin, causing Adel to swat my hand away and turn away from me. When she acted like this, she was quite cute. “Anyway, how long have I been asleep?”
“A full day. But that is to be expected with how many days you have been awake.” Sei answered as she handed me a drink.
“How is everyone else’s condition?” As long as everyone else was fine, we could begin diving deeper into the dungeon and hopefully finish this up quickly. Although I know it will not be that easy, I can still hope for the best.
“Everyone is in top shape and can move out at any time,” Sophie answered.
“Then let’s gather.” I stood up and stretched my arms. I then picked the axe up and strapped it to my back.
When everyone was gathered, I stood in front of them and began giving a bit of a moral speech. “We are about to dive deeper. The road ahead may be harder than the last, but I promise to do my best to protect you all. I can not say for sure if we will all live to reach and defeat the last boss, we may even get wiped out as soon as we climb down those stairs. But I do want you all to do your best to stay alive. If you get hurt, announce it. Let everyone know so we can try to cover for you. We are in this together and we will do our best to survive and return together.”
