"This is delicious"
Michael had been trying out all sorts of new dishes ever since he woke up.
The chef was able to cook up anything, he even had a nu. It felt as though he was in an actual top of the line restaurant.
Michael had called Gareth to let him know of how it went, and that he would no longer be a part of the police force.
He took it surprisingly well, Michael expected him to try convincing him to stay, however, his new role had all the benefits he could ever want.
Michael thought of asking for more than what he had, but he didn't want to be too shaless. He felt like a dungeon and so kind of clearance was enough of a reward for him.
Added to the fact that he still had the dragon to grant him a single wish, though Michael had not yet decided what to ask for.
There is a lot of stuff he could think of but nothing that he wanted or needed at the current mont.
Michael finished the last of his dish, which was a pizza, and stood up, walking straight out of the villa.
The dungeon was only a few streets away so he didn't really need a driver or anything like that.
Besides, it's a good ti to check out the surroundings.
Michael was located in so sort of neighborhood where he could see many villas, so even bigger than his own.
'Guess this will be for the rich academy kids' He concluded. There of course could be people who just live here for the view, though Michael thought it was unlikely.
There didn't exist anything like status in this world, However, there were all sorts of families and bloodlines that could be seen as superior to others. Hence why Zane was acting so arrogant.
But alas, money is the deciding factor, your bloodline could be that of a dragon, but if you were dirt poor, it didn't an anything. Money gives the strong arrogance, and the weak hope.
It reminded him much of the slums, if only they had enough money to hire a decent healer, their health would not have deteriorated as much as it did.
Life is unfair, deal with it already and go to the dungeon.
'Alright' Michael replied while shrugging. The weapon and armor stores were a bit far away, though it wouldn't feel far if he drove there.
However he planned to walk today, check out the dungeon and level up his Shield skill to the max.
The MP cost is a little bit high now, at a whopping 750 just to cast it once. The amount it absorbed made it worth it, but just casting it once drained more than 1/3 of his total mana.
If he were to level up his skill, he wouldn't be able to cast it for the 3rd ti without taking a break.
So this might take a few days..
It will all be worth it in the end, a rare rank skill, as you have seen, is far better than one can imagine.
'True..with a simple Rare rank skill I was able to cure all diseases, it's honestly ridiculous' Michael continued walking towards a small park area where a few governnt buildings stood, sporting a massive 'V' Logo.
It stood for Vivum, they were not very thoughtful when coming up with their branding.
Michael arrived in front of so sort of guard and showed him his ID imdiately bring escorted into a tent.
Much like the last ti he was escorted, his vision switched and he appeared in front of a little camp that had set up around a small portal.
Everyone just looked at Michael and nodded, it seed they too had been inford about him prior. It's good not needing to introduce one's self more than necessary.
One of them walked up to Michael and introduced himself "Hello the na's Park, my team and I will deal with any problems if they were to arise" It was another tall buff dude, Michael's been seeing so many of them these past few days.
"Sure, can I go in now?"
"Almost, give us just a second" saying that Park turned around and walked into the dungeon. After a couple of minutes, he finally ca back out, a small goblin in hand.
He proceeded to place so sort of a collar on the monster and then pulled out his phone "Hmm Level 12, you are good to go."
With a nod Michael walked into the portal, the space around him distorting.
On the other side was a village, or more like a camp, he could see goblins running around.
Michael was currently on a little hill where the goblins could not see him.
He saw one that was pretty close to the hill so he snuck up behind it and grabbed it by the throat.
Michael's stats were much higher than the goblins, therefore all it could do was flail its arms around, trying to scream. Though he made sure it couldn't.
Taking the goblin a fair distance away from the camp Michael released the goblin and cast a Shield on it, preparing to fight it.
The goblin's body suddenly twisted and it started running at Michael, its fingers shaped like claws.
It wasn't difficult to dodge, he just simply moved to the side and kicked it in the head.
Though as that happened his kick was bounced off, it felt as though he had hit a large pool of water.
The hit clearly didn't go through, the HP absorbed was currently at 7500, so he didn't expect it to break imdiately.
Unlike Amands, he was not a combat class or anything of the sort, just a simple healer who was fast.
'Why didn't I buy a gun..' Michael kept weaving around the slow attacks of the goblin, this was going to be an unnecessarily long fight.
It's fine, your hand to hand combat skill is leveling up decently fast, since it's common you should be done with it by the ti your Shield skill reaches max level.
'Is that so.. alright' Michael decided to hold off on the guns for now, however, he hoped that once he reached level 50 and increased the rarity of his class, he would get so type of combat skill.
That is highly unlikely, though keep dreaming.
'Fuck you too..'
-----
1 week later.
The last goblin finally plopped onto the ground, Michael standing above it with a bored expression.
A whole week of punching a water ball, until eventually it popped and the goblin died in a single hit, that's what it felt like to him anyway.
It was so annoying and Michael was glad it finally ca to an end.

He was nearly level 40, just a bit more EXP and he will reach it, ever since coming to the dungeon he only focused on killing goblins that were separated.
That was in order to level up his skills, though even then, he received anywhere from 2000 all the way up to 3000 EXP from a single kill.
Michael focused on the INT stat again after he was satisfied with his AGI, and it finally broke through into the 300's.
He maxed out Shield and hand to hand combat, though he didn't receive any bonuses from the latter.
However, it was finally ti to combine his 2 skills. Michael clicked on Skill rging and selected Greater Heal and Shield, then pressed yes once again to confirm.
And just like last ti...

Michael was surprised because of the skill's description, it not only was overpowered, the mana cost beca sothing he no longer had to pay attention to.
Though his surprise turned into curiosity 'Hey what happens to the people I had cast my Shield skill on? Will it disappear now that the skill is gone?'
No, it will still be there, the sa amount of HP absorbed at the mont of the cast. You will however not earn any EXP from it anymore.
'I see, that's a relief then'
Michael made his way out of the dungeon and back ho, according to Amanda, today was supposed to be his inauguration and it is happening in a few hours.
He would love to stay and reach level 40, it would honestly not even take that long. Though he just didn't quite want to do that yet.
He will do it after the ceremony, once he becos an official Saint in the eyes of the public.
Michael still had 4 whole months to level up after all.
Did I forget to ntion that you don't gain EXP from dungeons that are 20 levels below you?
Michael froze in place and exclaid 'You tell this shit now!?'
What's the problem? You were going to find it out once you reached Level 40 anyway.
'Then what about my skills? Can I still level them up at the very least?'
Skills yes, however as I ntioned, it will not go towards your actual level.
Michael sighed and got into the shower, preparing himself for the inauguration.
He put on so sort of robe that looked similar to his ivory robe, though it was not a type of equipnt, just a simple ornantal robe.
The hours passed and it was finally ti to go, he went outside, dressed like so sort of priest.
'I look ridiculous..'
You do but hey, for the people.
'Yeah..' Michael got into the car and sped, he was not inford of where he was going, his driver was however.
The drive took Michael to the other side of the inner district he was currently living inside of, there he saw a church.
Just like how there was the statue of Gabriel in the slums, there was also an even bigger statue of the Goddess Sophia.
He stepped out of the car and walked towards Amanda, she was waiting just in front of the statue.
"So? How does it feel? You are about to beco the city's renowned Saint." Amanda said while chuckling.
"Feels like any normal day..so how is this going to work?"
Amanda pulled out so sort of chalice and grabbed a water bottle out of her spatial bag, filling the chalice up till it was full.
"The caras will start rolling soon, stand in front of the statue and drink this."
Michael stared blankly at the fancy chalice in his hands, he expected sothing more than simple water.
"Is that all?"
Amanda let out a small smile "Yep, just make sure to drink it all, I will do the speech part."
Michael nodded and stood right in front of the statue, holding the chalice in his hands.
'What a holy Saint I am..'
It could be worse, she could hav- yeah no I don't think it could be worse.
'Thanks for the support.'
Out of nowhere, a small cara appeared and Amanda imdiately straightened her posture "Hello citizens of Vivum, today is a very special day. Goddess Sophia had personally descended down from the heavens and selected a Saint!"
The cara panned to Michael awkwardly holding the chalice in front of the massive statue.
"This is a never before seen occurrence! The Goddess who we thought had abandoned us, was actually with us this whole ti!" A single tear fell from Amanda's eye.
"That is why, I, the leader of the entire Vivum City, have personally co out to witness the new Saint consu the Goddess's essence, the holy water!'
The cara no longer had Amanda in its vision, so she signaled Michael to drink up.
'Why do I feel more embarrassed than her, she spat such bullshit in the na of the gods...' Michael held back a sigh and drank the 'holy water' out of the chalice.
He finished and held the now empty chalice in front of the cara, which quickly panned back to Amanda.
"I introduce to you all...Saint Michael!" Amanda exclaid and suddenly the cara disappeared. Her expression imdiately turning sour.
Michael was speechless, he didn't even know what to say.
He thought he was soone who was good at bullshitting, but Amanda..she was on another level.
She turned to him and tried putting on a smile but failed "You can return now, your Saintly duties will begin at the start of sumr, in exactly 1 month."
Michael absentmindedly nodded "Right, can you tell what I will need to do?"
"It will range anywhere from finding lost cats to healing elderly people, don't worry it's not too taxing."
Now Michael was left even more speechless. He was expecting to go into dungeons and fight for the city or sothing, not saving lost cats.
It was ti to return now, his life would be a lot more boring than he thought, at least until he got into the academy anyway.
Just saying, but unless soone was born with a diamond spoon in their mouth, the highest level out of all the other kids you see will be 25, because of that, you will be doing low level dungeons for at least the first few months.
The system dropped another bombshell on Michael.
'Fuck..'
