Chapter 16: Second Floor
"It's beautiful..."
With those words he said, all eyes disappeared, the dark sky returned and only the eyes of Ronald and James, who were amazed by everything that just happened, were left in the field.
"Umm...Ronald?"
When James pulled himself back together, he looked at the rabbit before him and called out to him. When Ronald heard this call, he turned to him quickly recovered from his embarrassment and continued to speak:
"I've never seen anyone as lucky as you in my life.... no, it's not luck, you said that you felt that if that was something special. Lady Nyx's card, the other one must be Master Erebus's. You're a man of strong feelings. It's ironic, the one who wants to meet Chaos will have the power of Chaos' daughter."
Ronald seemed to have completely recovered himself, he was still wiping his face with a cloth and taking deep breaths.
"Umm...Is this also the first time?" James suddenly directed this question to Ronald and then smiled a little.
"All these classes are what the gods give to people they think can be like them. It is only given to those who have chosen the black path. Neither Lady Nyx nor Master Erebus has ever asked to give up any of their powers. You must have caught their attention, you are a very strange person, Master James."
James smiled genuinely when he heard those words. It seemed strange to him that he had been through so much in the last two days.
Still, the fact that he had come to a place where he could feel special might be the only thing that mattered to him.
"I suppose I should say thank you," James said suddenly, scratching his chin in embarrassment and then looking at Ronald, "what do I have to do to get to the next floor?"
He wanted to get to the next floor as soon as possible and get stronger, he couldn't wait to use the power he had and make it pay off.
Immediately after James asked the question about getting to the next floor, Ronald raised his hand and a passage opened up almost three metres away.
It was nothing like anything in the tutorial or anything else he had ever seen. He was just staring at a white sheet of black smoke with its interior visible through the black smoke.
"I hope to see you again, Mr Ronald," James said suddenly, standing in front of the portal.
"When you reach the 5th floor and open the recreation facility you will be able to meet not only me, Master James, but many others. It was an honour to meet you, I will wish you not to die."
When Ronald uttered these words, James nodded his head and then passed through the passage without thinking.
After only a second or two, the environment he was in changed. The surroundings were covered with greenery and trees, it was obvious that he was in a forest.
The sounds of birds were ringing in his ears and sunlight was hitting his face through the tree branches.
James, who suddenly stretched himself, said "10x Gacha" and the skill panel appeared in front of him. With the High Chimera he had killed, he had a total of 130 rights, and he could not wait to spend these rights.
Just as he was about to press [turn ten], something caught James' attention. Just to the right of the gacha area where the ability appeared, there was an arrow key. James, who instantly realised what it was, immediately pressed the arrow key and said "Limited time event!" with a happy expression.
The gacha panel in the window in front of him seemed to have changed. Unlike the other panel, it became clear what the main event of the gacha was.
"Clothes?" questioned James, as dozens of clothes were constantly changing on the panel in front of him.
When he looked at the bottom of the panel, he realised that there was a [hundred dial] option instead of a tens dial option.
The fact that there was no other option worried him. He did not want to spend 100 of the 130 rights he had barely saved here.
At least that's what he thought.
Despite all this, when he took another look at himself, he realised very clearly that everything was disgusting.
He had clean clothes in the room, but the durability of the clothes was beyond terrible, even his armour was in a terrible state, and he had been a fool and distributed all the armour to the knights.
"I think I have to do this," James said, and then, without thinking, he pressed the [faceted spinner].
After spinning for a while, the wheel stopped spinning and 100 cards appeared in front of James.
One of the cards was surprisingly red, and there was only one other card with a purple colour. Even if he hadn't realised that the outfits would have ranks, a high-ranked outfit should be good.
After opening all the green cards, he sent each outfit to his inventory and then looked at the two remaining cards in front of him. Without thinking, he flipped over the purple card:
[Griffon Feather Sleeve Shirt
A garment made of feathers and the cotton of the great farm, given to its owner by the Griffons, creatures of legend.
Even swords made of Wywern tooth cannot harm it.]
James shook his head when he read the window opposite him and then threw off his armour and clothes and put on his shirt. James, who had turned the red card without wasting any time, smiled and was happy to see the name of another goddess in front of him:
[Selene's Boots (Replica)
The Moon Goddess Selene's boots are made from the essence of moonlight.
Your steps will be as light as a feather.
When worn, your speed will increase by 10%.
Since it is a replica, its powers and ability slots have been reduced by 90%.]
Shaking his head with happiness, James was happy to have such valuable items. Although they were a pair of boots and a long-sleeved shirt, it was obvious that they would help him.
However, he had used the remaining 30 of his remaining points in normal gacha without stopping, but he had gained nothing but a few pieces of armour and a poison packet.
Just as he was changing his armour, the window he had been waiting for opened in front of him, the mission had already begun.
