[Allocating rewards for clearing the S rank dungeon altar of |-+";? *+| ??$ based on the personal contribution of each party member]

"Ah, I forgot about the rewards," William exclaimed.

It seems that after everything he had gone through, he had forgotten about the rewards, which, considering his current mental state, probably made sense.

[Ding! Rewards are allocated to all surviving members; feel free to summon the rewards whenever you want to use them.]

William felt a pinch of regret as he read the notification talk about the surviving member, making him once again realise all the lives that were unfairly sacrificed due to Sung's stupidity and his weakness.

'It can't be helped. I just need to make sure that such a thing doesn't happen again and to make Sung pay for his actions.

William told himself, and to distract himself, he finally decided to check out everything he had gained from this place.

Honestly, the bloodline he had received already made everything worth it, even if he got nothing else, but since he did end up getting rewards, he might as well check them out.

"Show Dungeon rewards."

"What the fuck?" William exclaimed, seeing everything that was being displayed to him.

Not even in his wildest dreams could William have expected to gain so many rewards.

William almost forgot that he was supposed to be unlucky and that the world was trying to kill him due to how generous the rewards for this dungeon were.

But after calming down a bit and thinking logically, it made sense.

After all, this was a S-rank double dungeon associated with a god.

So having such generous rewards made sense, and he had killed an A-rank unique boss monster, an S-rank boss monster, and stopped the descension of an evil god.

The dungeon probably took all of it into account when distributing rewards to him.

But before he got ahead of himself again, he needed to know what all these rewards actually did.

Skill Cube: Skill Merger

Allows the user to fuse two or more skills and create a new skill.

_________________________________________

'This is insane' William thought he could already imagine all the things he could do with a skill like this.

He had some plans on how to use this skill and what skills to fuse. With a single click, William decided to claim the cube and learn it.

As soon as William pressed the button, a palm-sized silver cube appeared in his hands.

This was a skill cube, an item usually obtained in dungeons, and it allowed humans and other races with mana to instantly learn a skill and skip the boring, monotonous process of manually learning a skill.

Once William channelled his mana inside the cube, it disappeared as an overwhelming amount of information flooded inside his mind.

Normally, so much information flooding inside someone's brain at a rapid rate could be dangerous and might leave permanent damage, but skill cubes were safe to use and did not leave any side effects.

After a few seconds, William knew that he had completely learned the skill.

He was very excited to try it out, but he knew now was not the time, so he shifted his focus to other rewards.

William had a wide smile on his face as he read the effects of everything he had gained.

A SS natural treasure would easily go for more than 10,000 platinum coins on the market, but that is the market price.

The main problem with high-ranking natural treasures is a lack of supply and an excess of demand.

Due to this, if William wanted, he could easily sell it for more than one million platinum coins.

However, William had no intention of selling such a priceless treasure, and neither did he plan to consume it to gain the additional stats.

While the effect was nice, William had an even better plan for this treasure in mind, and that was to use it to summon a chaos servant.

William was getting excited just thinking of how powerful a chaos servant summoned from a SS natural treasure would be.

The whole reason why William had become an adventurer was to gather natural treasures and summon chaos servants before venturing into the dangerous lands of the neutral continent.

Having a SS chaos servant on his side on this journey was sure to make William a lot safer compared to before.

He planned to do the same with the feet of the rabbit.

However, for the lush seed, he was going to consume it.

Nature was an element that William didn't have yet, and having an additional element would only make him more powerful and versatile as a mage.

Myra mainly used nature elements, and from what she had shown him, it was a very powerful and useful element to have.

Most people usually avoid getting new elements they weren't born with, as they would need to scratch from zero and invest too many resources before they get any real use out of the element.

For most people, it just isn't worth it, but not for William.

Due to his [Child of Mana] skill, all elements William gained were at 100% affinity from the start without him needing to consume additional resources.

He also liked the ring of invisibility, and William could see it being very useful in the dangerous lands of the neutral continent, especially when paired with his [Stealth] skill.

Overall, setting aside everything that he had gone through to get them, William was very satisfied with all of the rewards as well as the bloodline he had gained.

The current version of William was easily more than twice as strong as the version of him that had entered the dungeon.

Speaking of which, a bright giant purple crystal orb had appeared in the centre of the room; this was the dungeon core, meaning it was now time to finally say goodbye to this double dungeon. ~Swish~

A blue portal appeared out of thin air in a dark cave far away from the human continent.

A naked young man fell out of this portal as the portal behind him closed.

~bum~

"Oww, couldn't you have made the exit a bit more comfortable?" Sung complained to seemingly no one as he stood up and touched his body, still shocked at being alive.

"So I somehow managed to survive, huh?" he questioned himself, still in disbelief at everything that had happened.

A lot happened today, and his life probably won't be the same anymore.

First, he had been selected by a system and gained the opportunity to gain a divine aspect, which he failed to do.

Remembering that still left a bitter taste in his mouth.

He just lost the greatest opportunity in his life, all because of one talented prick who didn't want common folk like him climbing up the ladder.

Speaking of him, Sung still felt chills, remembering the display of overwhelming power that Edge Lord had shown.

Sung had almost given up on his life and had come extremely close to dying.

But still, somehow, he managed to live through it.

And now that he was alive, he had no intention of letting Edge Lord get away with what he had done.

Now, alongside his uncle and family, there was another name that he needed to get pay back on.

He had also betrayed his party, and while all the miners died, Edge Lord's party survived, and they would probably report him to the URF, meaning he was going to become a wanted criminal.

As betraying your party inside a dungeon is a serious offence, it would get him blacklisted from all dungeons, and he would probably be arrested on sight.

"How annoying," Sung grumbled, realising how shitty his situation was.

"I wish I was able to kill all of them; that would've been better."

Such a statement was extremely out of character for Sung, as before today he hadn't even killed a fly, and yet today he was casually talking about killing humans without even a change of expression.

This was obviously because of the god who was helping him, but Sung sadly didn't know of it yet.

'I feel thirsty,' Sung thought, realising he hadn't drank any water today and decided to venture into the cave he was in a bit further in hopes of finding something to drink.

And after a while, he found a small puddle of water to drink.

This probably wasn't the cleanest water, but Sung was long past the point of caring about hygiene.

However, just when he was about to drink the water, he saw something shocking.

He saw a reflection of himself.

"Who the fuck?" Sung exclaimed as he dramatically stepped back, thinking there was another person in the cave, but surprisingly, his reflection mirrored his action.

'Wait, this is me?' he thought as he touched his face, finally having confirmation about his doubt.

"Holy sh*t, this is amazing," Sung exclaimed, finally realising that the tall and handsome young man who was starting at him through the reflection was him.

Sung was always short and skinny due to him never being able to eat proper meals despite working all day due to him needing to pay for his mother's medical bill.

While Sung tried to ignore it, the truth is that he was always very insecure about his looks, especially when he saw everyone being taller and better built than him.

But his insecurity about his talent far outweighed his insecurity about his looks.

But it seems at least one of his insecurities was fixed; his new body was very tall, easily above 6 feet, and very well built with visible abs.

And even his face was extremely handsome, almost too handsome, like it didn't belong on a human, but who cares about that? The more, the merrier.

Even his manhood down there was much longer than his previous one.

Sung felt weird to suddenly become so incredibly handsome and well-built after being short and average his whole life.

But this was definitely something he could get used to.

'Mother would be so happy to see my new body'

Sung was getting excited just imagining his mother's reaction to his new body.

But before he got ahead of himself, there was another thing he needed to check.

Silence engulfed the whole cave as he looked at his own status screen.

He was too shocked to even form a proper thought until a few minutes later, when he said.

"This is unbelievable"

He still couldn't believe everything that was being displayed to him.

While he failed to become a divine human, it seems all the pain he went through wasn't in vain, as it resulted in him gaining a Tier IV aspect, which meant he had the potential to reach the peak of all humans.

While there were other Tier IV aspect users out there, they didn't have a system to assist them, meaning that just by having this, he could reach the peak of all humans and take his revenge.

This, while not as amazing as having the potential to become a god, was certainly far better than anything he could have imagined.

And just by having his aspect evolved, he had gained more stats and battle force than what he had after years of training. Honestly, Sung felt a little bitter about it, but it didn't matter anymore.

What did matter was that his revenge was no longer a pipe dream but only a matter of time.

"Hahaha!!!" Sung let out an insane laugh as he finally realised that everything he had done and sacrificed was worth it.

"Edge Lord, in the future, you will wish that you had managed to kill me today, but sadly for you, I would be much stronger than even a talented prick like you by then."

"Mark my words, both you and my uncle will die by my hands."
