As you all can see, after leaving the boss room, you''ll be teleported to a different room where I''ll provide the awards separately.
Yea right, he''s just going to send up back to the stupid white room ain''t he? The room even looks like it''s just a bigger room made for mental patients.
Whatever I guess, I just go already hey shila, send me out of this shitty place already. Hilda says to Shila, ignoring the fact that the guide is still talking, but mostly randomly unimportant things.
Yea yea whatever. Shila clicks something on the system screen sending her and Hilda to no big surprise, the same room with the guide in the center of it.
Hey.
Yea I lack creativity, so what?
Could you not read my mind?
I didn''t, it''s written on your face.
But I''m wearing my mask.
I made the system, my mental resistance is maxed, your mask isn''t blocking anything from me.
…
Fine whatever, weren''t you talking to the other people?
Yes, but you interrupted me and left, anyways the one with them is a clone right now.
A real or fake one?
It''s a clone, of course it''s fake.
No I meant tha-
Yes, it''s a physical body, but obviously much weaker than me.
I''ll keep that in mind.
It''s still strong enough to beat you, so don''t attack it before reaching at least 20 times your current level.
That''s around level 800…
Which you''ll reach around… I estimate floor 50.
Why so long, why not floor 20?
Because it takes longer and longer to level up the more you level, also levels become less relevant around the 300s.
Huh?
Skills and items are the priority afterwards, well, maybe not for you due to your trait but skills and items are still a huge priority.
Nice I got two questions though.
Yes?
First is why didn''t I get any recoil?
Leveling up mitigates it a bit and the potential recoil goes bad anyways.
Second question, can a person''s trait change?
Yes, but it''s basically a part of them, so it usually take drastic changes to the person, but yours won''t change even if you die so you''re good.
Okay, now give me my awards, I''ve been sleep deprived for 3 days already.
Fine fine, you''re still fine because of your level, you could probably easily manage 5 days.
But I don''t want it.
You could.
I''m not going to.
I wasn''t forcing you, anyways here take it, it''s in your system.This story has been taken without authorization. Report any sightings.
Shila, pay up.
Fine.
Shila shows the points amounting up to 20000.
Why so much?
10000 from it being level 50, extra 5000 because it was a boss, the last 5000 because you''re the top contributor..
Oh also she''s got more stuff.
Shila?
Nope, nothing.
Really?
As Hilda steps closer to Hilda who fits the phrase “wear your heart on your sleeves” and is currently looking more guilty with every step closer to her.
You sure?
Yep.
Open the inventory.
Why?
Open it.
…
Hey guide, you can open my inventory for me right?
Ofcourse, but this is entertaining for me.
Open my inventory up Shila.
No.
Look, I''ll stick my hand into you if I must. She says, earning her a mocking look of disgust from the guide.
Shut up, you know what I mean.
Hilda takes her hand and stick into into Shila''s shirt, entering it because her shirt is also part of the system into her inventory, and pulling everything out, including her remaining tip coupon, elixir, a new sword and something else Shila refuses to give up.
Once I''m done checking this sword, you''re paying up whatever it is that you''re hiding.
Soul cutter(legendary)
Oh wow, why a legendary weapon?
Because from now on, all bosses will have to be fought alone and I feel like I may have made the bosses a little too strong along with the monsters, which I will solve in a year.
A year?
Yea, every year I intend to put more users into the tower, improving any mistakes overtime.
Why name it soul cutter?
Because it can cut souls in half, but you won''t be able to do so easily, until level 1000 at least.
That''s gonna take a while.
Obviously, cutting a person''s soul means that it''s hard even for me to receive, no way I''m going to let you do so already.
Right…
Also remember to clean up all your mess.
Later.
Soul cutter(legendary)
When dealing. Physical damage using this sword, the person will also suffer a mental attack, infusing mana will increase the sharpness, durability and mental aspects of the sword.
You can claim this sword and part of your soul by infusing some of your mana and absorb it into your body or recall it back at a moment''s notice simply by desiring to do so.
Warning, the strength of the weapon is highly dependent on the user''s strength.
Nice, but what does absorbing it in my soul mean?
Hard to explain but it''ll make your soul stronger when not using the sword since the sword will defends against attacks against the soul when you don''t call it out.
Ok?
Hilda infuses some mana into it as the sword glows and turns from white to black letting out a black mist around it as it disappears into Hilda''s body.
Why did it turn black?
When you chose your colour during the event, it affected your souls, its not bad don''t worry in fact it helps strength your soul even if the amount is minuscule.
What about the black trail? Can you get rid of that?
Don''t wanna.
Why?
Cause I don''t feel like it.
…
Anyways, Shila, what''s the last object?
Technically she has two more.
Shila, pay up.
Fine. Shila pulls out an elixir and passes it to Hilda.
And what''s left?
It''s not important.
Guide?
Technically it''s not important at all.
Fine then, but I''ll still get it later.
Oh by the way, go check the shop.
Hm?
Hilda opens the shop to find
System upgrade(Legendary)
Cost:10000.
Oh nice, you finally gave it, but why for 10000?
Because its not going to be cheap.
As Shila listens in, she tilts her head curiously.
Oh yea, I didn''t let her see this or she would probably buy it immediately.
Nice, but why would she want this badly?
It makes a system feel more complete as a person, you wouldn''t understand.
What are you two talking about?
Nothing Shila, it''s just a system upgrade.
Hearing this, Shila immediately runs up to Hilda and tries to plead and act cute.
You''re basically a younger version of me, I honestly don''t care how cute you look.
Come on, just buy it for me yea?
Then give me the object you were hiding.
Fine, but you promise you will buy it?
Fine.
Shila pulls a box out of Hilda''s inventory named.
Food box(epic)
Can materialise any food you want(limit: 10,000 tonnes in total)
Are you serious?
Buy the upgrade for me now.
Not till you keep all the stuff on the floor up.
You messed it up.
Cause you wouldn''t open my inventory.
Fine.
Shila goes around picking up the 2 elixirs, box, tip coupon and goes back to Hilda.
Fine, I''ll buy it… my 10,000 points are going goodbye… oh what a pain.
Buy it!!!!
Hilda brings her trembling finger to the buy option watching her points go from 22700 to 12700 as a card appears mid air which Shila grabs quickly while Hilda drops to the ground hurt(financially).
Achievement unlocked
Big spender.(Exclusive)
I made this achievement just for you, it''ll self delete in 3 days.
Screw you…
Hilda, still on the floor, brings her head to look at Shila as she looks at the card not knowing what to do before… eating it and shining for a second before reappearing with no visible changes.
What the hell…
She''s got 10 percent of your stats by the way, and she''s got her own status too now.
Great, Shila show me your status
Name: Shila
Gender: Female
Level:21(tied to users level/2)
Stats:(21 S) (21 E) (21 A) (16 M)
Personality: loves(free)food.
Trait: “leecher(max)”(trait level tied to users)
Hilda stands up slowly and looks through.
What does your trait do?
Ask him
Shila gestures towards the guide who''s just standing beside watching.
So?
It gives her leech-like abilities.
Such as?
Absorbing mana,endurance and health for herself, or you.
Health?
It''s not a stat since I can''t quantify it due to how troublesome it''ll be, but absorbing it can help heal you, but not too much, it''ll just be like reducing minor injuries, stopping blood loss and helping help minor bone injuries, just examples, but it can''t help with severe injuries.
What''s the drawback, since it''s a max level like mine.
She wants to eat more, and anything free, oh and when I say free, I mean when she doesn''t pay for it or when other people pay for it.
Whatever… but since I''m here, give me a tip.
No, but here''s some information, everybody in the top 5 got a legendary weapon.
The runner up go a legendary too, but it''s worse than some epics, but still pretty good
The honorary awards got a great epic weapon, still worse than the runner ups weapon.
Everybody got a weapon suited for them except the participant award, blue who I just gave a random trash epic weapon to.
Nice, send me back now.
Fine.
Hilda gets teleported back and sees Shila excited to try her trait out.
Go to sleep first, it''s night right now and I''m too tired to deal with this.
You''re not tired, we''re basically connected, I can feel it.
Yes, but I want to sleep.
Nooooo, come with me or I can''t go far enough to find any monsters.
If you behave, I''ll give you the box tomorrow.
Fine…
Go to sleep now.
Hilda buys a small protective tent for 500 points(safety over money)and goes in with Shila cuddling up to her
Why are you getting more childish?
Well, every upgrade makes me feel closer to a human, that means closer to my appearance of a… I think 8 years old child
Fine whatever, just go to sleep.
Sure.
As Hilda slowly wanders off to sleep, she can''t help but wonder how Lela''s doing.
