Hmm... Neraxis humd in amusent, a smile on his face. It sure took a long ti, didn't it...
[Well, if I hadn't shaved your beard, you'd be looking like a holess person, so I'm glad it's finally over,] Evangeline said with a giggle.
Nonetheless, he accomplished most of what he wanted to do during this floor, and any more would definitely harm his psyche.
One and a half years was quite taxing to say the least, but in the end, the rewards were more than worth it.

[Congratulations.] Evangeline praised. [Though I wish you focused a bit more on training your skills and stats instead of those affinities.]
Well, I'd be A- ranked at most if I had done that; training affinities is worth more in the long run.
Nonetheless, each of his perks underwent a drastic change.

(NEW) The user may glance into the opponent's mind for a brief duration, influencing their thoughts to a small degree.
(NEW) The user can now tell when soone is lying with 100% accuracy.
Although so changes were better than others, Neraxis was nonetheless left satisfied, and now, he could finally leave this place.
[Do you wish to stop the tir here?]
[Yes/No]
Pressing "Yes," a wave of relief imdiately washed over him, making him slump down to the ground with exhaustion.

[Do you wish to enter?]
[Yes/No]
Neraxis pressed "No" without even a single doubt, and was imdiately transported back outside.
Yet when the light hit his eyes, he was left dazed.
However, it only lasted for a mont, as soon, the guard from earlier ran over, a horrified look on his face.
"Young man... Just how long did you spend inside the 5th floor? Your ranking shot up almost as much as the other floors." The guard asked.
"Hmm? I think it was two weeks or so? I can't rember." Neraxis replied and began walking away.
However, the guard stopped him. "Wait! Soone ca here to see you! They're an important person... So for both our sakes, please speak with them..."
"I see. Did they leave a na?" Neraxis asked, and the guard nodded.
"Specter? I think?"
At those words, Neraxis imdiately froze.
Specter was a governnt codena, and that particular codena belonged to one of the executives that oversaw Project Z17.
It was also the person who was behind the dissection of one of the heroes.
"Tell Specter I will be waiting patiently." Neraxis said with a straight face, and the guard scurried over to his booth, before making a phone call.
Only a few days should have passed, right? Outside, I an.
[Yes, though you might want to go on a date with one of the girls, since you seem out of it. I guess it's still a bit too much for humans to be in isolation for more than a year.] Evangeline comnted.
Seems like it, but I need to figure out how to first deal with the situation at hand. Neraxis pondered before taking out a certain device from his dinsional ring.
It was a phone, which he used to directly contact Amara, and soon, he sent a ssage.
He knew it would be enough, since from the looks of things, Amara was more than aware of the project.
It did not take long to receive a response.
Neraxis read that, and put the phone back inside the dinsional ring.
There were still things he needed to do, such as, check out the system log, as well as 'hang' out with Evangeline later.
Of course, he also had to figure out how to rank up his main skill, since it was at a bit of a bottleneck.
But that was for later, as now, he had to deal with the current situation at hand.
"Neraxis Valen?" A familiar voice rang out from the side.
He turned toward it, and what greeted his sight, was a pale man with long golden hair staring at Neraxis, a wide smile on the man's face.
"Specter, I assu?" Neraxis asked.
"That's correct. I apologize for the delay, I ca as soon as I could." Specter perford a curt bow, apologizing.
This snake... Neraxis thought, narrowing his eyes.
After his {Cosmic Sight} was upgraded, he could see through lies, and those words were nothing but lies.
Nonetheless, Neraxis wouldn't point it out, for now at least. "How could I help you?"
"Ah, yes." Specter scratched his head, seemingly embarrassed. "I work with the governnt, and I was wondering if you would be interested in joining a division of ours?"
Neraxis tilted his head. "Division?"
"Haha, yes." Specter nodded. "Recently, we ford divisions which would be sent out to monster zones to retake our land. Each division consists of strong individuals, and judging from your performance, I believe you would be a good fit."
Lies. Neraxis rolled his eyes. "Were these your thoughts before or after I entered Dreamspire?"
"After, of course." Specter plainly nodded. "We see no use in soone who's not special, and you, Neraxis Valen, are special."
"That's a bit bold, don't you think?" Neraxis said with a chuckle. "But I apologize, I'm not looking for any added work as of late. I still have the academy on my mind."
"Ah, that's a pity..." Specter replied with a sigh. "The Skryder Academy students were a bit more eager after hearing my proposal."
Neraxis's brows twitched. "If you don't mind asking, who were the ones selected from that academy?"
"Hmm... I believe it was Bale Leahart, Alice Windsom, and Lar Hardcrest," Specter said, trailing off. "I think there was one more, but I wasn't the one who recruited them."
"I see..." Neraxis nodded with a stiff expression before saying, "I'm not interested in joining the division, but I would consider going on these monster zone clearing expeditions of yours."
"Oh?" Specter's eyes widened. "The more the rrier, Neraxis Valen. As long as you show interest, I will make sure to accommodate your needs," he pulled out his phone before typing sothing in.
As he clicked send, Neraxis's phone suddenly vibrated, and once he reached in to check it, a frown appeared.
"You have my number?" Neraxis asked skeptically.
But Specter rely chuckled in response. "I have everyone's number. I will keep in touch, see you later, Neraxis."
With those words, Specter walked over to a black SUV not too far away, and soon drove off, leaving the stunned Neraxis in front of the Dreamspire entrance.
[I didn't expect you to show interest that openly.] Evangeline said with amusent.
Did it co off that way? he chuckled. This is a great opportunity to finally et my forr 'friends,' why wouldn't I be interested?
Nonetheless, Neraxis would co back to Dreamspire right after he was finished with the side tasks, therefore, he headed over to the mall where Celina's secret hiding place was.
It was empty, with only a single note he spotted in the distance, and as he opened it up, he saw the drawing of a cute black cat.
"Pfft..." He held back his laugh and sat down on the mattress, before glancing at one of the two system ssages before him.
[Unread System Logs: 1]
[Would you like to view them? Y/N]
[Not ?] Evangeline pouted.
Well, it's better to get the bad stuff out the way first. Neraxis replied, and without waiting further, pressed "Yes."
Imdiately, a familiar sight materialized before him. It wasn't a voice recording, nor was it related to the last ti.
But the only reason it was familiar was simply because...
"We welco your return, Fragnt of the Eternal Sin."
