?Sure, there were lots of dungeons that had a trap, but the traps in most dungeons were very simple, examples include pit traps, leg-hold traps, or rock avnche traps. But this dungeon is different, there is a unique mechanism in it.
I tried my best to bandage my body''s wounds. After I finished, I got up to continue my exploration.
Several times, I touched the trigger of the traps. Whether it was the trigger of the trap on the floor or on the cave wall, I identally pressed it. There''s even a trigger ced on the ceiling as well.
I identally hit the trigger on the ceiling after I dodged the active trap on the floor. At first, I jumped and was about to stick my sword into the ceiling to hang on there. But it turned out that the ceiling I was aiming for was the trigger for another trap.
Somehow I was able to avoid the ceiling that was spewing rock and the floor that had spears shooting up.
Because I''ve tried so hard, I really hope to see the end of this cave.
However, I received a notification that made me have to leave this cave immediately.
[The Svangur Sword''s Dispel Fear ability has reached its limit.]
[The Svangur Sword''s Dispel Fear ability will no longer be able to withstand Fear''s attacks.]
Somehow I can feel the vibrations on the Svangur Sword. Maybe the Svangur Sword was shaking because he couldn''t use the Dispel Fear ability anymore.
Previously, the Dispel Fear ability attached to the Svangur Sword did manage to resist the effects of Fear attacking me, but that was only a temporary defense.
''Where did that attacke from?''
I couldn''t help but frown.
Magic debuff fear still attacks me non-stop. A feeling of fear is still pounding on my mind, forcing its way into my brain.
I think it''s a miracle that I''ve survived this long.
Is this the end? If I go back, won''t I lose the opportunity to gain more power? Is this really okay?
I, who in my first life couldn''t increase my power even if I trained very hard, would give up the chance to gain more power just like that?
I, who was aware that the enemies I would face in the future would possess extremely terrifying power, would I give up here without taking the risk?
I gripped the cave wall firmly.
My mind began to ask what reason did I have to put so much effort into the quest given by the World System.
Do I absolutely just want power? It would be a lie if I said no, but I realized that wasn''t my real reason. Power was not my main reason.
In my previous life, at some point in time, I felt disgusted while living a life full of dangers in this world.
It was from there that I started to think about what I really wanted to achieve in this world.
Only one thought popped into my head.
I actually just want to live ''Safe'' and ''Comfortably''.
As simple as that is my wish.
Don''t confuse the words'' safety andfort with something as trivial as living idly in a small corner of the world.
First, the meaning of ''Comfortable'' in my opinion is where all my wishes cane true easily.
In other words, if I wanted to enjoy all kinds of luxuries in this world, I would be able to easily make that happen. Or even if I wanted to turn the world around the axis, I would be able to do it easily.
Whereas the meaning of ''Safe'' life to me is where every other life form I know wouldn''t have the guts to fight me.
And to be able to live a ''Safe'' and ''Comfortable'' life, it''s clear that I need a power that can stand above thews of this world. Thew where the strong eat the weak.
I decided to surpass the main character, not be his subordinate. Even if I''m just an extra character.
In order to make up for the miserable and wretched life I had lived, both on earth and in my previous life, I had to at least have a very greedy desire.
? That was the reason that drove me to keep fighting.
But the reality is different from what we always imagine. Reality is not always as sweet as our dreams.
Without realizing it, I''ve returned to feeling fear all over my body.
[You are starting to be affected by the magic debuff - Fear.]
I bit my lips tightly, and after that, I tried to get up and prepared to escape from this cave.
I didn''t have to worry about getting hit by the same trap while running away since the traps that were already activated didn''t seem to be active any time soon.
When I took one step back, a system message stopped my footsteps.
Indeed, the reality is not always as sweet as our dreams, but when we see it from another perspective, it can also mean that reality can be sweeter than our dreams.
I smile.
[In response to your situation, your locked title is automatically unlocked.]<novelnext></novelnext>
[Title ''The Soul of a Regressor from Another World'' - Unlocked.]
[Due to the Title The Soul of a Regressor from Another World, you will be immune to all kinds of mental attacks.]
[Title name: The Soul of a Regressor from Another World.
Description: You are the only owner of a soul from another world that has regressed in this world. Due to various causes, you managed to survive. Your synchronous soul and body have seeded in giving you very strong mental immunity.
Effect: You will be immune to any kind of mental attacks.]
I remember that previously there were two question marks behind the title I had.
"Open status."
When the status window appeared, I just focused on looking at my title.
[Status Window:
Name: Mesties Warwick.
Title: Poor Noble, Regressor, Transmigrator, The Soul of a Regressor from Another World, ?.
….]
It turned out that there was only one more question mark.
Apart from the curiosity I have about the title that is still a question mark, do other titles also have their own effect? Same as the Title The Soul of a Regressor from Another World?
Then I tried looking at the descriptions of the various titles I had.
[Poor Noble: This title is proof that you are famous as a pitiful noble in the Misonia Kingdom. This title also makes it easy for you to ept insults from everyone.]
[Regressor: This title is only obtained by people who have returned to the past with their memories intact.]
[Transmigrator: This title indicates that your soul has traveled between worlds.]
It turns out that other titles only have a description without any inherent abilities.
Only the title of Poor Noble has the effect of baiting people to insult me.
At first, I didn''t pay much attention because I didn''t think it was important, but who would have thought that titles also have their uses?
After a series of thoughts, it''s time to walk deeper inside.
***
Due to the sudden appearance of the title effect, I continued to step deeper into the cave.
There is arge door measuring 5 x 2 meters square blocking the way. There are no special carvings on the surface of the door. Not even a ce to put the key. This is usually what the door to the boss room looks like.
I can imagine that inside this big door, I will fight Boss monsters.
Crack!
Ba-dum!
I wonder why this door is so heavy. Only when I strengthened my body did I manage to open the door. Even the sound of the door opening was thunderous.
Opening the door, I held the Svangur Sword as if I were a soldier ambushing a drug dealer''s headquarters.
But I was really surprised by what was behind the iron door.
"Why is there nothing here?"
There are no monsters in the room at all. It wasn''t even an arena-like ce where boss monsters should be.
The first thing that caught my interest was the shelves of cabs, where there were a lot of things that should be in theboratory.
Chemical beakers, pipettes, petri dishes, spirit burners, and so on. There were also many test tubes strewn across the tables.
Indeed, the tools here are somewhat out of datepared to modernboratory equipment on earth. Even so, it already came as a surprise that there was aboratory in a dungeon.
The spections in my head started running wild.
If there is aboratory, there must be someone doing research in it. And if it was in the Dungeon, who would do the research?
It was obvious that what was in Dungeons were usually monsters.
Then, did the monsters do the research?
''Is that possible?''
