Hidden Dungeon

'Over and over again, it is always a bliss when I log in.' Leon said in his mind as he appeared in the altar of resurrection.

[Welcome to Aron]

He smiled.

"You died again, but for some reason you seem happy today unlike other days"

"I don't understand, don't you have anything to do? Why do you always wait here for me"

"Well, you will understand when you finally get Finduilas' acknowledgement, afterall he's not the only that wants to see if you are the Lord this city needs"

"..." Leon paid no attention to what she said and instead walked away.

"Even if Finduilas accept you. It won't be enough, the people will only accept you because Finduilas did, but they will chastised you at every mistake you make"

Leon paused, "How weird, last time I checked you were not my advisor" he said and walked on.

"That arrogant attitude, at first he seems like a really good person but as I got to know him, I discovered he's a total insecured jerk" She said and stormed towards another direction.

Leon reached the forest.

He stood in front of the tall trees.

[Skill Interface]

> Skill name: Lightsword: Outburst

> Skill rank: A

> Skill level: 1

> Info: A sub skill of the sword skill used by one of the sword gods, Knight Finduilas, but was recreated by a certain unique person.

> Cooldown time: 370 seconds.

"Hmm... not bad, now let's test it out" He said as he placed his hand on his sheathed longsword. "Lightsword: Outburst"

~WHOOSH~

The trees fluttered heavily as a gush of linear wind swept past them. Compared to when Finduilas used it, Leon could not add the light attribute that Finduilas used with it, perhaps it was because of his aura nature or not enough knowledge, he couldn't truly say but he was more than glad with the result. "I'm sure by the time I level up the skill, even I will be able to cut buildings in half." He said, tightening his fist.

[Durability of weapon: Shackles longsword, is low]

"..." Leon returned the weapon to his inventory and brought out another one.

[You have equipped Shackles Katana sword]

> Weapon name: Shackles Katana sword

> Weapon grade: Common

> Attack power: 230

> Durability: 113

> Feature: Weapon inflicts bleed state to target.

> A weapon created by a renowned blacksmith named Shackles in Ordeta, the capital city of Temper Kingdom.

> Weapon Mastery: level 0

"Oh, it added weapon mastery...probably because of my profession." Leon swung the Katana in arcs. "It's lighter makes it quite easy for me since I've been used to longsword"

"But that also means it's shorter, you movement is used to that of longsword, katana will require you to move more, that's why they are light, since they have a sharp cutting edge that it's foundation is speed"

Leon looked at the person talking, "You seem to he good with swords. Have you found your Quest NPC"

"I need your help"

"No you don't"

"Yes I do"

"I said you don't" Leon said and sheathed the katana and about leaving.

"Please wait a moment. I found an hidden dungeon"

Leon stopped, "You say what? Okay now you need my help", he grinned. 'Do you have any idea as to how long I've been trying to find one...this must be heaven sent'

"But we'll need to form a party" Arthur said.

"No shit, I got you"

"But we'll need more party members"

"Why? Isn't the two of us enough?" Leon said.

"No, it's a pretty high tier, but I have to challenge because it seem Trisha has entered inside. I traced her prints, it last ended in front of the dungeon and then I saw this notification"

Arthur shared the notification with Leon.

[You have discovered an hidden Dungeon]

> Dungeon name: Crypt Of Helena

> Dungeon tier: V (level 31~50)

> A place of rest for the great heroine Helena, that changed the course of history with the wheels of her ship. You will find tier AAA, tier S and tier R monsters in there.

"Tier V, it just four tiers away from the bottom, isn't it going to be too hard?"

"Now you understand why we need all the hands we can get?"

"What about spoils?" Leon's gaze pierced Arthur's as he asked.

"I can give you a higher percentage, all I care about is securing Trisha" Arthur said.

Leon grinned and brought out a paper and ink pen.

"What is that for?" Arthur asked, confused.

[Note of oath]

> If you break whatever oath written on this note. The betrayed party will decide on whatever punishment and the rule of oath shall bind it.

'This guy, I seemed to have been wrong about him, his first impression was cool, I never thought he's so complicated' Arthur collected the note and wrote on it.

[An oath has been made]

"Good now..." Leon opened his window

=> Hello.

=> Hey, Sagey what's good?

=> I found something huge and I need your help, I'll pay you.

=> Hmm, if money is involved, I have no choice.

=> When do you think you'll be able to come?

=> I'm in Kont'el? But I have a teleportation scroll that can probably take me to where you are.

=> I'm at Tirianae

=> Wow, that place is high class, as expected of Blind Sage.

Leon quitted the chat.

'That Tess, I can't control her greed, it'd be troublesome if she starts prying for more, anyways let's hit her up.

=> Hello Tess, there's a hidden dungeon

=> ... On my way.

Leon looked at Arthur, "alright so that should be enough."

"No it's not, you are a low leveled, you have to get equipments or you won't survive inside that dungeon. It contains monsters of 31 to 50, plus we might not know much about monster tiers but I do know that a tier C, level 31 monster is very much weaker than a tier AAA, level 31 monster."

'He's right, not even when I lost my strength yesterday' "So I should visit a blacksmith?"

"An equipment shop will do. Just get something with extra features and will boost your stat."

"Alright, I'll do it..." Leon responded.

"Then I'll stay here..." Arthur said as he folded his arm and leaned on one of the pillar of the dungeon.

Leon suspiciously looked at him then left.
