[Rank Upgrade 1/5]

“Wait a sec…”
Hiro arched an eyebrow in surprise at the notification he just got. He read the weapon’s special ability over and over again. He was afraid of missing something because of what he remembered; the ability was exactly the same as the 5/5 rank upgrade that he got for free during the closed-beta test. However, this time, he got it with an upgrade rank of only 1/5?
He didn’t have time to check for the bugs that might have urred, or was the sword power upgraded by the developer?
Whatever the reason, Hiro was very satisfied with what he had just seen. This time, he faced the phoenix that was flying low in the center of the circle. To use the weapon’s special ability, Hiro had to take the phoenix down first.
Whoosh!
?[0)??? St! St!<sub>.</sub>
Hirobined his Godspeed dash with a sword sh to tear the me wings of the phoenix from the right to left until they both shattered. Then, the monster fell onto the rocky ground.
The monster was very good at flying, but not very good at standing on its two legs. And when he saw the monster staggering from losing its bnce, Hiro immediately activated his awakening swordbo skill and shed through the phoenix’s chest mercilessly.
St! St! St!
[Critical hitbo]
[Critical hitbo]
[Critical hitbo]
[Critical hitbo]
This time the phoenix’s body waspletely torn apart, and it continued to roar in pain. Meanwhile, Hiro didn’t stop attacking it.
Seeing the critical hits keeping out made Hiro very excited to keep swinging his sword non-stop.
Crash!<sub></sub>
Ding!

At the end of his defeat, the phoenix monster suddenly exploded, and the explosion made theva surrounding Hiro harden into the volcanic ash. And Hiro couldn’t avoid the rain of ash.

Finally, the stage 1 upgrading of the vampire blood-eater was sessfullypleted, and Hiro got a lot of useful items.
After being returned to the checkpoint, the ce where Milly was still waiting for him, Hiro used the ce as an elevator again. Then, he finally got out of the Tower of The Death.
When he came out of the Tower of the Death, the sun had already appeared in the sky and instantly, Milly the subus suddenly disappeared like a fire. However, she said that she woulde to meet Hiro again. So, Hiro knew that it seemed like the subus really couldn’t appear in the morning.
Next, he nned to return to the guild base to ask someone who could read the book he had exchanged in the illegal market.
The guild base was still very quiet when morning came. They were all more active at night than in the morning because most of them were office workers who had to follow working hours. Only a few were frencers or entrepreneurs, so they could y without time limits.
When Hiro came, he saw Wheelie cleaning the guild base bar tables. The girl was very happy to see Hiro.
“Would you like me to have a cup of coffee to wee this morning that I predict will be bright?” the Dwarf woman asked, still wearing an apron.
“Thank you, Wheelie. You are very kind. Have you had enough rest for today?” Hiro felt awkward when he realized that his words didn’t sound like him at all. However, he didn’t regret saying it. He wanted to change for the better for those who were good to him.
“Of course, Nightfall. After all, yesterday was a holiday. Ha ha ha. So, do you want coffee or tea?” The girl still forced Hiro to ept her kindness, and Hiro chose to get coffee.
He then walked into the center of the guild base. There, he saw the BigShow party members sleeping on the floor like fish lined up for sale in the market. Meanwhile, above their heads, there was a couch that became Noah’s throne. It seemed the man had identally fallen asleep while reading. He even hugged the book he was reading with his eyes closed. His neck tilted against the back of the sofa.
“Well, it looks like they all worked overtime.” Hiro was curious about the book Noah was reading, so he checked it. The book was quite heavy when he picked it up, and the cover was made of animal skin.
However, when he opened the first page of the book, Hiro couldn’t read what was written there. Yet, his eyes lit up when he saw the letters looked familiar, and he felt like he had seen them before.
“Noah, wake up!”
Hiro couldn’t wait to ask Noah to trante what was written in the book he bought from the illegal market.
Noah woke up in surprise because Hiro shook him quite hard. Noah looked at Hiro with an annoyed look. He then wiped his own lips as if to make sure that there wasn’t any dried drool there.
“What the hell, Nightfall? You startled me.” His eyes moved to see the book that had moved hands, and he quickly grabbed it.
Snap!
“What are you doing? Did you read it?” her face turned red. Hiro became a little suspicious. Why did Noah suddenly look embarrassed when the man found out the book was in his hands?
“I just—”
“No! No! No! Don’t say anything!” Noah covered his ears as if he didn’t want to hear anything Hiro had to say.
“Did you always do that? Reading people’s diaries?” Noah was annoyed again after putting his book into his inventory.
Hiro frowned. So that was the contents of the book, Noah’s diary? Just hearing it, Hiro was not interested.
“You wrote it in another letter. How could I read it? Are you stupid?” Hiro sat on the shoulder of the couch next to Noah. He suddenly felt exhausted.
“Ah—I forgot. I’m using elf letters and you’re a demon. You don’t know what I wrote there. It was a relief.” Noah let out a long sigh. He even patted his own chest.
“What did you write there? And since when have you been keeping a diary?”
“None of your business, Nightfall. What do you want from me so early?”
Hiro snapped his fingers to take out a worn-out book stored in his inventory and he pushed it in front of Noah’s face.
“I need you to tell me what’s inside this book. Trante it please!”
Noah felt a little ufortable when he picked up the book from Hiro’s hands, especially since the book emitted a strong, charred smell.
He immediately used [Elven’s eyes] and both of his eyes gave off a glowing green light.
“Diary of Seven High Priests.”
“Well, I guess I’m right. You really like reading people’s diaries, NightFall!”
