Lines of words appeared one after another.
Kieran furrowed his brows.
His eyes quickly glanced over the compensation for equipment that did not match the era and stopped at the drop of his highest attribute by 2 ranks.
"As the dungeon entries increase, not only will the difficulty increase, but so will the penalty."
Kieran muttered to himself, his brows furrowed even tighter.
Kieran knew that as his attributes kept increasing, the difference between his highest attribute of 1 and 2 was like heaven and earth, even though there was only a 1 point difference.
It wasn't just a matter of Points anymore, it also involved Golden Skill Points.
"I can't afford to fail now huh?"
Kieran sighed as he understood the pros and cons of the matter. He looked at the compensation.
Just like what Lawless said, the compensation was fair.
It could be exchanged for two Transcendence and Musou level skills that matched the era of the dungeon.
The types of skills ranged from the common ones to the advanced ones, but all of them were limited to the basic category. There weren't any skills that exceeded the basic category.
As for mystical skills?
Don't even think about it.
The system was always fair.
"Choose and..."
Kieran looked at the skills one by one and soon made his choice.
After acquiring the Transcendence level of weapon skills, Kieran didn't want to repeat his choice anymore.
Therefore, he gave up on the skills that were prefixed with cold weapons.
After giving up on those skills, the number of skills he could choose was reduced by more than half.
Other than one of the remaining skills, there were some swimming and climbing skills.
Compared to swimming and climbing skills, Kieran's natural inclination was towards swimming and climbing.
The same was true for knowledge and body coordination.
The whole process was no different from truly acquiring skills.
Other than the fact that it would disappear when he left the dungeon.
When Kieran made his choice, the words before his eyes started to fade.
A strong light and a sense of weightlessness appeared.
When everything returned to normal, Kieran was standing outside a town surrounded by wooden fences.
At the entrance, there were two soldiers who looked like guards staring at him with vigilance.
On top of the sentry tower not far away, the guards had drawn their bows and arrows. Although they didn't really draw their bows or aim at Kieran, Kieran felt like he wasn't welcomed.
"Everyone, I mean no harm."
"I was invited here by the master of Swusters Castle."
Kieran, who was no longer a newbie, naturally dealt with the situation before him.
However, to his surprise, the guard in front of him didn't let down his guard. Instead, he became even more vigilant.
The guards on the watchtower nocked their arrows on their bowstrings.
"Go away, you associate of the witch!"
"You are not welcome here!"
Two guards drew their swords and chased Kieran away.
I don't own this territory.
The information revealed by the guard surprised Kieran.
But before Kieran could ask any more questions, two guards approached with swords in hand.
Their stubborn attitude made Kieran believe that if he continued, the two people in front of him wouldn't mind thrusting their swords at him.
Even if the enemy had ten times the number of people, it still wouldn't be enough. However, Kieran wisely chose to retreat.
Because, he realized that he seemed to have been deceived by the word trap.
Or more precisely, he accidentally fell into his habitual thinking.
In this dungeon world's background, the king's order and the imperial envoy were mentioned. In addition to the previous dungeons, he would always face the person in charge of the mission or enter the mission range. It made him think that the first place he saw would be Swusters Castle.
But in fact, the place he was at was not the so-called Swusters Castle.
On top of that, the owner of Swusters Castle wasn't the owner of this territory either, but a witch.
"Since I'm officially leaving the newbie phase, the system's assistance in the dungeon world has been further reduced?"
Kieran thought in his heart.
He had expected it a long time ago.
Based on the fact that the dungeon difficulty would increase as the dungeon entries increased, the system wouldn't be like a babysitter, arranging a more reasonable identity for the player each time and completing the mission in a simpler way.
After a certain number of dungeon entries, the protection would be removed.
However, Kieran didn't think it would be this fast.
"I have to be careful with my words."
Kieran warned himself in his heart.
It was only the fifth dungeon difficulty and he had come across an inconspicuous town. The guards were lax and the attitude towards the witch was nothing but disgust.
If it was the sixth or seventh dungeon difficulty, if he continued to be so reckless, it wouldn't be as simple as retreating and leaving.
The word 'burning at the stake'.
Kieran knew it very well.
After retreating to a place where the guards couldn't see, Kieran was ruminating over the background description.
"A king would actually send an imperial envoy with a secret order to a witch?"
It was inconceivable in Kieran's point of view.
However, before Kieran could think further, he was interrupted by a series of hurried gallops.
A group of five fully armed riders dashed out of the town.
"Hurry up and find the witch's accomplice!"
The leader of the group, the Knight, shouted.
His voice clearly entered Kieran's ears.
