Loser's redo: Transmigration in a novel

Chapter 251 Dungeon Cleared

?

Heading back to the dream world, Zick suddenly received notification of Varine and the others entering a dream realm, also known as a dungeon, for the people with the system. 

Being the administrator, Zick decided to look at their action, through the system.

Instantly a screen appeared before him, showing the live-action of Varine, even though he was traveling in the middle of nowhere in space. 

.....

[Dungeon beginning] 

[The time of purification required to vanquish the dream realm: 20]

[Quest needed to be completed to purify the dungeon: Wolf's tear.]

[ 1. Kill the rose sword.

2. Save the noble women of baron rellen.

3. Save yourself.]

'Huh? Save yourself?' Varine grew confused looking at the completion requirement. 

Just as she recovered consciousness, A searing pain suddenly traveled through her waist. 

"Argh!!!" Not being ready, Varine screamed in a man's voice. 

Startling herself, Varine momentarily forgot the pain and looked at herself. She had turned into a man in his twenties!

After the sudden realization, another wave of pain hit her mind, making her stagger forward. 

Looking at the place where the pain originated, there was a huge cut made from a razor-sharp object. 

"So this is all the famous lion swordsman amounted to?" A woman's disappointed voice reached Varine from before her. 

Varine hurriedly looked forward. 

[Found target: Rose sword!]

Looking at the notification, Varine's expression grew grim. 

'You want me to defeat her in this condition?! What is with this unreasonable dream realm?!' Varine felt like quitting before even trying. 

Varine could vividly feel the strength of the woman before her, she was no match for her. 

"What happened? Why aren't you speaking with that sharp tongue of yours?" Rose Sword stared at Varine mockingly. 

'Think! Think!' 

Varine went through everything that the priest thought of her. 

'That's right! Fighting isn't the only way. The dream realm never gives an impossible mission, so there must be a way around it.' Varine looked around frantically, ignoring Rose sword's existence. 

Both Varine and Rose Sword stood in a hall, overly exaggerated sculptures were all over the place. At first glance the marble was of first class, shining brightly, enough to blind the eyes. 

"Are you not going to attack? What a disappointment...Wait, if I kill your wife, you might show me something above your limit." Rose Sword smiled wickedly, not hiding her intentions in any way. 

Varine involuntarily turned to the woman, who stood multiple meters behind him. She had a petite body, with short brown hair and crimson eyes, blazing in a fierce light. 

[ Target: Noble women of baron Rellen.] 

'Barron Rellen, so I have to save her...' Varine squinted her eyes. 

Suddenly, Varine felt the control of the body slip by her hand. 

"You bitch! Do you dare to lay hands on my wife?! You must have a death wish!" The man jumped towards Rose with no hesitation. 

"Hahaha, that is more like it." 

Both of their swords shone brightly, in bloody light. Clashing with each other with murderous expressions. 

At that moment, the control of the body was returned to Varine, making her shocked, and freezing her train of thought. 

What the hell?! How can you do this to me, brother?

You provoke this woman, and when the time comes to fight, you just vanish off in thin air? 

'...coward' 

Varine didn't know whether to cry or laugh, she just felt horrible internally. 

Puchi~

Not having much experience with swords, Rose's sword entered Varine's neck with ease. 

[You died.]

[Resetting the dungeon.]

[Entering the dungeon.] 

[Chances left before death: two]

....

Zick, who was looking at Varine, shook his head in disappointment internally. 

Vatine had not been able to even adapt to the new body in time. She couldn't even get the time to plan either, the chances of her failing were almost assured. 

Leaving aside Varine, Seveleen, Philine, Leona, and Anastasia were steadily progressing through the dream realm, clearing it with no issue. 

Zick twisted his lips in wonder, Varine might just die if this went on. 

'I will send a helping hand for now. It's her first time, so it can't be helped. But still, I shouldn't clear it for her, she needs to learn too.' Zick controlled the system interface, reaching this point in consideration.

...

"Psshh...." Varine breathed in sharply again, feeling the pain. 

Seeing the same scene play out before her, Varine suddenly found herself incapable of thinking. It was like her mind was frozen, almost becoming a retard. 

The pain from before was just too vivid.

[The system assistance mod has been activated.] 

[Sword and Mana manipulation attainment increased to master rank temporarily.] 

All kinds of information flowed into Varine's mind, making her black out. 

Light returned to Varine's eyes rapidly, looking at the notification of the system. It turned out there was such a function in the system!

With the mastery of a sword, Varine could fight on the same level as the Rose women. 

"Tsk! If I kill your wife...." 

The same storylines went on and on. Knowing the time was nearing, Varine grew tense. 

'Now.' Varine slashed her sword at Rose's face with no hesitation. 

Block!

It was surprisingly blocked, but Rose showed an astonished expression, before smiling again. 

Varine moved her body instinctively, attacking any opening she saw, while perfectly defending herself too. It was like she had become a different person. No hesitation, no mistakes in her stance, and her sword danced in the air. 

"What the...." Those couldn't take it and tried cursing, only to have a cut made on her left cheek. 

'This shit ain't the lion swordsman!' Rose took a defensive stance.

Just an unbelievable amount of sword skill was blatantly pushing Rose to the limit. It was simple yet frighteningly hard to fight against. 

It was like Varine could predict all of her attacks beforehand, coming up with the best countermeasure. 

Slowly wounds accumulated on Rose's body, and being killed by Varine at last. 

[Dungeon cleared] 

[All the requirement has been cleared: 100?]

[Additional reward shall be granted to the host.] 

[.....Calculated!]

[Two minor ranks up in the profession and A skill — Intimidating aura] 

Varine felt a strange power crossing through her body, it was the terror force of the dream world.

Getting out of the dream, Varine could see the gray mist shrinking noticeably to an extent, before stopping. 

Varine's profession, shadow lurker, which was ranked C-, directly shot up to rank C+. She could completely tell the difference from before.
