"Can you understand why the eyes of the sacred beings are upon you? Not only did you purify the solid faster than anyone else, but you also forced yourself to do it. Normally, those chosen for Hell Difficulty are the children of high gods and goddesses. Like Eris or her brother Moros, who had purified the solid before."
When Altair heard all these words, he realised how narrowly he had escaped.
He had indeed shown more courage than necessary and had almost gotten himself killed. Still, he was alive, he was here, and that was what mattered.
"On top of that, you need to think. Your choices had consequences. You could have entered any part of the city to reach the mission area. You could have met people who could be considered side streets, main areas, different NPCs, made companions, and spent a day or two trying to clear this floor. Your choices would have led to change, but you proceeded in the most perfect, most courageous way." Hazel added to her own words.
With that, she fell silent and looked at Altair, who was sitting directly opposite her. The young man was clearly surprised, but it couldn't be said that he was shocked.
"Well... Could you tell me what I should do next?" Altair asked, clearly not wanting to dwell on the previous topic.
The young man had cut the piece of meat in front of him in half and, eating it with relish, had begun to listen to Hazel:
"No, unfortunately, after this floor, another admin will be the one to help you clear the remaining tutorial floors."
When Altair asked, "What about the rewards?", Hazel's smile returned to her face, and she said, "Of course, if you're not hungry, I'll give you your rewards," and snapped her fingers once.
As soon as Hazel did this, the table disappeared, and an empty table appeared. Altair had just started eating when the table in front of him vanished.
"I'll show you twenty-five cards. Each one will be a unique grade or higher. You will choose exactly two of these cards, and these will be your rewards. After that, I will send you to the next floor," Hazel said suddenly.
With these words, the table was instantly filled with cards, and Altair gently stood up.
It was happening again.
The young man could see the colours and grades of the cards.
He pretended to think for a moment. After all, he didn't want to reveal that he was a cheat. Still, it would be wrong to say he wasn't excited.
He was very curious about what prize he would choose from here that could win him.
There was only one black card on the table, which meant he would have to choose one white card.
The young man instantly chose the black card and then, pretending to glance over the cards, picked up one of the white cards.
With that, Hazel took the two cards and cleared the table.
The woman looked at the two cards in her hand, quite astonished, and said, "Lucky," loading both cards into Altair's system.
Immediately after that, two large system windows opened in front of the young man:
[Selene's Hunting Knife (Replica) (Godly+)
Some people used to say that the Moon Goddess loved carving moonstones. Well, of course, this was as true as Selene wanted it to be.
As long as the player's will holds, it will always be a knife that can be summoned by the player with the energy of the moon.
The chance of piercing has been increased by 40%.
The chance to bleed has been increased by 40%.
Attack damage has been increased by 40%.
As this weapon is a replica, its properties have been reduced by 90%.]
[Star Slash (Holy+)(Upgradable)
Let the weapon of the stars' formation shine upon you, show your enemies that life is but a dream. Star Slash will pass through all walls and become a power worthy of you.
When the skill is used, the skill itself will adapt to the element or elements the user is currently using, enhancing the user's attacks.
When the ability is used, the next attack will be 50% more powerful.
This is an upgradeable ability.
To upgrade the ability, you must slay magical beasts of all sizes.
Ability upgrade progress: "0.00%".]
The young man smiled when he got his hands on these two rewards.
"Do you have any idea how I'm supposed to use these things, my lady?" Altair inquired.
"Ah! I almost forgot to mention. All you need to do is enter your inventory, just like any other user, and select one of the items there. As for the skill you've gained... you'll see it in your system profile, but my advice is not to do this until you've cleared all the tutorial levels." Hazel replied.
With that, the young man had nothing left to do here and stood up.
"In that case, if you'll excuse me, I'd like to continue on my way. Thank you for all your help," said Altair.
Hazel bowed her head politely and said, "It is highly unlikely we will meet again, but if we do, I hope you are alive and well, Mr Altair. As one of Aculon's five administrators, I wish you the best of luck with all my heart."
Meanwhile, a grey passageway had formed a few metres ahead of Altair.
The young man nodded his thanks to Hazel and quickly entered the passageway.
When he emerged from the other side of the passageway, he saw several doors around him.
To be precise, seven doors.
There were seven doors, identical to each other, with no differences whatsoever. The only difference, of course, was the colours on them.
So perhaps normal eyes couldn't see them, but again, the young man could see the difference in these colours.
He turned around briefly and saw that the seven different colours on these seven different doors shone at seven completely different levels.
Every colour from green to black.
Of course, one didn't need to be a genius to figure out where to go, but the other admin, Hazel, had mentioned was nowhere to be seen, so the young man wasn't sure whether he should wait here or start everything himself by choosing the black door.
After waiting there for a few minutes and realising that no sound came, he understood that he had no other choice and headed towards the door glowing with black light, opening it.
Then he stepped through the door.
Latest Chapter
That Is It.
When the young man read this system window, his mouth fell open. His eyes widened, and his thoughts came to a halt for a few seconds.Still, he managed to pull himself together in no time.Even though he wanted to move on to the next floor, he had decided to rest for the day.In other words… it couldn’t really be said that he’d done all that much. It was quite clear that he wasn’t tired either. He’d simply thought that resting would do him more good.That’s why, instead of going straight through the gate, he’d returned to his own room in the palace.He’d had a lovely shower.After this long shower, he went to bed and lay his head on the pillow.He wouldn’t wake up for a long time.When he drifted off into the realm of dreams, he found himself in a rather strange setting.He was in space again. Yet this time, there was something different about the surroundings. It could be described as a homely atmosphere.There were a few armchairs around, and one could even spot a television.The yo
Divine Lightning
He wanted to rest for a while before passing through the Altair Gate.Even if he wasn’t physically tired, he knew that taking a breather and resting for a while was good for the body.After catching his breath for a while, he realised it was time to move on and got to his feet.He could now proceed towards the twenty-third floor.However, just as he was about to do so, a system window appeared before him:[The rewards for levelling up consecutively and clearing the 23rd floor have been combined, and the system has deemed you worthy of a suitable reward.The user has earned four ‘Skill Enhancement Stones’.]When Altair looked at this reward, he didn’t know what to say.“Four skill enhancement stones,” the young man said, beginning to ponder to himself.[You serious? That’s very rare, you know? And you’ve got three of them. That sounds very good.]Upon receiving a message from Aether, Altair curled his lip. Although Aether’s apparent excitement pleased him, he didn’t know which skills t
Level 52
The young man was using his mana carefully and continued to spread as much fire as possible around him.Every time his mana was depleted, it would replenish, and his power would return to his body.It was impossible to say how many levels he had levelled up by now.At the very least, he had grown stronger, and most importantly, he hadn’t died here.After a short while, the mana shield enveloping the High-Demon had thinned to a mere film.The Void Fire continued to burn through this mana shield.However heavy it was, the High-Demon was, surprisingly, managing to defend itself remarkably well.This was astonishing.It was astonishing even to Altair.The area of the Funeral Bell of Letum had long since vanished.The Curse was persisting within the High-Demon’s body.It had taken nearly ten minutes for the three High-Demons to emerge from the gates and for matters to reach this point.The young man couldn’t help but be astonished.Despite the Curse lodged right in the centre of its throat
At Least Alive
As he levelled up, the young man realised his mana had reached its peak, and without a moment’s hesitation, he unleashed his ability:“Funeral Bell of Letum!”The moment Altair spoke the spell’s name, the surroundings began to shift.As darkness began to spread, the young man planted his feet firmly on the ground and lunged forward.At that moment, he activated the ‘wave’ ability he had only just acquired.As he did so, a five-metre-wide wave of fire began to advance towards the High-Demon standing closest to him.With a single swing of his sword, the High-Demon sliced the wave of fire in two.The curse emitted by the Funeral Bell of Letum had clung directly to the High-Demon in the south, turning the High-Demon’s throat pitch black.Whilst the demons struggling with the fire around them could barely move due to the Funeral Bell of Letum, Altair simply continued to move.The moment he leapt upon the High-Demon, who had split the wave of fire in two, he sensed a massive surge of mana f
High-Demons
The Ice Fire spread out across the ground looked just like a snowflake.There was no way to describe the beauty of the sight.The young man had to start his attack now.Rather than swinging the sword he held tightly, Altair had set his sights on a target and began to advance in that direction.He was running towards the door, which he believed to be to the west.The constant presence of demons around him was definitely to his advantage.The young man would be able to level up significantly here.He was just a few levels short of level sixty.He was eager to master another career path.The system might have assigned him a survival mission, but the young man was well aware.These demons... were nothing more than small experience points to him.When Altair launched his first attack, a frenzied energy had already spread around him; as the aura of death enveloped the area, Ice Fire spread in every direction.With every step he took, Altair left behind traps on the ground, a mixture of Ice
Egg And The New Floor
Altair had slipped the knee guards directly onto his knees and then stood up to test how comfortable they were.They were quite comfortable.Although made of a metal as hard as adamantium, they were strangely flexible.It was quite clear that they were a very good pair of small armour pieces.When the young man sat back down on the floor, he waited a little longer.He really didn’t want to move from where he was, so staying put was his best option.He kept thinking about what had happened, and eventually, after a long while, a door and a gate opened up before him.[Please forgive us, Mr Altair Moon.It appears there has been an issue within the system. Based on our research and checks, such a floor should not exist.You will be considered to have successfully passed the twenty-first floor.If you wish, you may proceed directly to the next floor.We would like to apologise for our oversight and are presenting you with this gift.]Altair was still trying to read the system window when,
