When Sylvia saw the huge sli appeared in a distance, she imdiately hides her presence as low as possible while sneakily and swiftly steps forward toward it. When she reached approximately ten ters away from it, her breathing becos quiet as her body gradually started to relax. Once her preparation is ready, Sylvia gripped the dagger in her hard before silently sprinting ahead, it was only she reached close to three ters that the Sli King finally noticed her presence as, without any hesitation, it sends out a tentacle swipe at her with such fast speed that not even an expert in martial arts could avoid it completely.
But with her current agility, Sylvia easily dodged it by sidestepping as the tentacle hits her previous location with a loud thumping noise. If that kind of attack had landed a single hit on her, she could only see her own body turning to at paste without any resistance. Knowing this, Sylvia becos even more focused on avoiding such a critical attack, and once in a while, she would land a few hits on the sli before retreating to heal herself by drinking the potion in the inventory. Though she could avoid a few hits, that doesn't an completely as there were still tis that the wind's pressure from the hit sohow managed to graze on her which caused a few minor cuts appearing around her arms.
As Sylvia repeatedly the sa actin of sending a few hits on the sli and retreated a distance away from it, she could tell that its health is slowly being chipped away and by the ti its anger reached the peak, if not for her quick reaction and wise decision of launching a critical hits with Fatal Strike skill, the one who had died would have been her. Once the core finally cracked and shattered to pieces, Sylvia could finally heave a relieved sigh as she plops down the ground with a tired and exhausted expression on her face.
"That was...very tiring. And, I guess I almost die? Haaa..."
Though all said and done, she had now cleared the First Floor of the Trial Tower, which ant she now could enter the Second Floor where the goblins reside within the dark cave, or so she was told from Sheila. But rather than entering with her current stats and level, Sylvia wanted to level up a few more until her level reached 10; it was also a piece of advice coming from Sheila. After all, the goblin is much stronger and cunning than a sli, it's better to prepare herself first before heading to the Second Floor.
While Sylvia was taking a rest after clearing the floor, Sheila was currently staring at her phone sneakily while in class with an expression of utter disbelief. The last ti she received a quest was about dragon slayer which was absolutely impossible for the current her, the quest is still there within the quest window but today, the mont Sheila steps into her classroom, a sudden quest appeared in her phone. Though if her phone didn't vibrate in her pocket, she would not have known and check it later in class.
『 Investigation II (-) 』
『 The world's power has started making its move, investigate the cause.
Reward: Taming Skill Book, 10 AP, 100,000 GOLD
Punishnt upon failure: Level drop by -5, Penalty Zone 』
...That's it? How would I know that sothing is making a move behind the scene, and why they did it. Why do I need to know anyway? But that punishnt... Isn't that pretty harsh? The higher the level, the harder to level up. Plus, I see that the Penalty Zone is making its appearance the second ti. Although I would like to visit it to fill in my curiosity, if I lost that much level and was sent to Penalty Zone, I don't think I'll able to survive in there, especially when I have no information regarding it.
But even so, Sheila wonders what caused the quest to triggered so suddenly. Excluding three people, herself included, all her classmates are just a normal person with no special power of sort. If the quest was triggered when she steps into the school, that would make her investigation much harder as there's no way she could investigate the student one by one, there's simply too many of them. Though she tried her hardest to not co to such a conclusion, Sheila couldn't help but sneak a peek at the red-haired girl who noticed her gaze and put up a smile in response.
No doubt about it, it's this girl. I feel like the system is telling sothing here and it has sothing to do with this girl. It's already suspicious enough that the quest gets triggered when I walked into the class while Angelica was already seated in her place. But isn't that too easy? The reward is quite appetizing, after all. There has to be sothing more to this.
Though there's also the possibility that one of her classmates has awakened to a supernatural power or has a connection to the dark side of the world. Just thinking about going through investigating all her classmate's backgrounds one by one is already causing her headaches, I just want to level up and beco strong enough to protect myself and the people I care for, this is not what I asked for! Sheila silently complained inside her mind. She decides to have a talk with Ria first before deciding to do sothing about the quest, having two brains is much better than one, after all.
"But still, taming skill book, huh?"
Sheila softly muttered to herself while she was lost deep in thought. She had once had a wish to be able to ta sli and make them her pet/companion, seeing how weirdly adorable they could be, and now that such reward appeared, she MUST complete this quest, no matter what! One of her dream of being a Monster Tar is not that far behind and if she let this chance go to waste, there might not be another way to acquire such a skill book, after all, though it was sold in the system's shop, the price shut her down completely.
