After the Artifact description and summary, I was somehow able to withstand the pressure from Goliath which suddenly became more quieter.


    It was no longer releasing waves of oppression, but it still distributed a rather chaotic, and disorderly pressure into the vicinity.


    How the hell am I supposed to bring thisrge thing with me? With the way it was spewing out it''s aura, it was like walking around with a bell jingling down my neck for all to know.


    Just as I thought that, a specific portion of the Description window was highlighted, and more information was quickly recorded.


    ...


    [The Bond enchantment allows Goliath to reside in the soul of its owner, and will obey their call and summons at anytime.]


    [Ding! You have gained a Soul Artifact Weapon of a God-yer rank no less! You have gained experience points!]


    ...


    When did I start gaining Exp!


    The bronze spear dissolved into fragments of light and quickly disappeared into my body. And immediately, at the same time, I felt strangely full.


    What does the system mean by I have gained experience.... This was the first time I was seeing a message like this. In the first ce, Meta already admitted to not having Exp as one of her features.


    This was what made leveling up and Ranking up seriously a pain.


    Could this also have to do with the Sequence authorization too? I thought, and it made sense.


    New features would be avable once I got stronger and raised my authorization, Meta never missed a chance to say that to me.


    But a God ying spear, huh.... Now that the Goliath had vanished, calm once again returned to the Throne room. I finally had the chance for my thoughts to race, but all the same this wasn''t the right moment.


    It was safe to say, the third and final Reward I received was something beyond any of my expectations. No, actually, all of the rewards weren''t something I would have seening from a mile away.


    They were all high ranked Artifacts, and thest one was the most terrifying.


    In the end, the return I got from clearing the dungeon was immense. Aside from the ws, each artifact was immensely powerful and highly advantageous for me and my future prospects.


    "Sigh. I feel like so many things has happened today at once.''


    ...


    [Congrattions! All rewards have been received. With this you have sefulpleted the Dungeon of Lace. Please step forward and take your ce on  the Throne to exit.]


    ...


    The Dungeon''s red system screen popped up next to me and informed me of what to do.


    With the rampage of Goliath now settled, there was no longer any reason for me to keep the two Enchantments of the ring active.


    Immediately, I felt [Hoarder] quickly sap away my strength to make up for the energy I used up. And as for [Crown''s Veil], well....the immense amount of pressure I had exuding from my body ceased and instantly became thin but vague.


    I felt a significant portion of my low energy drop and vanish into the damned ring before taking a step forward for the tall throne.


    Finally it''s all over, I thought, managing a weak smile.


    I climbed the small stairs of the tform raising the Throne and slowly made my way up.


    Thest four weeks were like a horrible nightmare. I suffered quite a lot, and died a few times, but meh, nothing I couldn''t handle.


    Ah, but this was still only the beginning. In a way, this was kind of like a small break...a vacation from the more drastic matters that awaited me outside the walls of the Dungeon.


    I still had to figure out the Vision, and the new features of the System. I had to make preparations for the Demon King''s descent, and find out more about who the man dressed in ck is.


    There was also the very matter of this dungeon.


    Inheritance Dungeon of Lace of Entropy.


    What was something like this doing out here? And just how unlucky am I to stumble upon it.


    I nced at my left shoulder from the corner of my eyes. There was a silver blob of smile, my newestpanion.


    My familiar.


    I withdrew my gaze, and drew in deeper my thoughts.


    Could all of this be a coincidence?


    Lately, I was really beginning to doubt my reality.


    The System...there was only so little I knew about it. It gave me an ufortable feeling, from Meta''s unexpected interferences to the sudden coincidences or scenarios I find myself in.


    I can only hope I was only imagining this.


    But hope was fleeting.


    Ah, want am I doing? Even if the System truly is using me, haven''t I already decided It''ll be a mutual understanding?


    The System...The  Great Cmity...The Demon King...The man in ck...all of it, I was still too weak to go against any of these principalities.


    At the moment, I could only continue to let Fate toy around with me as it''s bitch. I could only grit my teeth.


    And smile.


    Smile. Smile , smile and smile.


    In the end, I''ll be the one who''sughingst.


    The magnificent Throne loomed directly before me. The system said I should take my ce on the Throne to find the exit. So if I sat right on it, then this whole Dungeon event will be over?


    Looking back as thest weeks, andmenting what the future held for me after this ...yeah, this really was like a vacation inparison.


    More of a thrill ride, really. Got my heart racing a few times, and other times, it out right stopped beating.


    I started at the Thronenguidly, then sat on it.


    The bright gold silver throne was cool to the touch, and filled me with a sense of magnificence.


    "Woah, is this how kings feel? Overlooking everything else from above below them..."


    I had to admit...it wasn''t all that a bad feeling really.


    "Well...as long as I''m still here even if for only a while longer, I guess I might as well enjoy this vacation to the best of my opportunity." I mused and sat back wholly on the throne.


    I leaned my left hand against the broad arm rest and propped the side of my face right against it. I raised my legs and crossed them loftily against the throne.


    Then from above, with a faint smile, I watched everything below.


    "Hmm..." I drummed my right fingers against the other arm. The faint smile on my lips became more pronounced.


    "Not bad."


    Sitting on a Throne... wasn''t a bad feeling at all.


    "I could get used to this."


    s, my vacation hade to an end.


    Looking back, maybe me finding this dungeon was one way or the other for the best. I managed to level up a few times and got stronger.


    I found an Aurora Tree, a special type of tree made from the pure almagamation of pure Aether. Even so, it was one with a fruit that only came around once every thousand years.


    I obtained the blessing of Aether and experienced almost boundless growth in my talent and the quality of Aura I could now use. I decided to call it higher Aether. And even my body was refined as a result.


    I refined my arcane skills, and even managed to sessfully design my art, and even got it recognized as one by the system.


    I made a breakthrough in Armament.


    I learned and unlocked a few new skills, granted I had to almost die to do that.


    I grinded a few levels and brought my overalls power level close to the very peak of the Mortal Rank. I was now very close to breaking through into Eta Rank, with only a few more levels to grind.


    And towards the end of it all i even made an unlikely newpanion and got a familiar. Although it was a slime. An allegedly powerful one.


    There''s also the revtion of the future I got from the vision. It wasn''t much now, but knowledge of the future was still indispensable and valuable. It all depended on how I made use of it.


    I made breakthroughs in various aspects and even unlocked my next sequence and new features of the system.


    And finaly, I gained three powerful Artifacts that added to my arsenal.


    Yes. In the end, all''s well that ends wel—


    "Bullshit!"


    Is that what it expected me to say?!


    Amidst my internal ranting, an expansive bright light spread from underneath the Throne from an illusinary magic circle that unraveled. Bright rays of light shot out of it and engulfed my sitting figure like a tractor beam, and the rest of the Throne room from behind the curtain of light began to haze.


    I was finally returning back home.
