Ryan was surprised by the number of attribute points he had gained in just a few moments.

  It was practically like receiving a premium welcome bonus from some game just for participating in its pre-unch.

  Maybe this was only due to the bug through which he had been hired, but compared to the heroines’ stats, he was still very low.

  He was still very low.

  But at least something reassured him, even if only a little.

  'At least I’m sure I won’t die in a single hit. Well, as long as neither of them hits me with their full strength.'

  Since Ryan already had higher Resistance and Psyche than the rest of his attributes, this time, with a cool head, he decided to distribute the points into STR and Luck.

  In total he obtained 430 skill points; 210 points were automatically applied to all his stats.

  With the remaining 220 additional points he received, he pced 200 into STR and 20 into Luck.

  He reached a total of 610 STR and 30 Luck.

  He was curious about what Luck would actually affect, considering it was quite high compared to the heroines’.

  "Ryan, what are you thinking about that has you so focused on that wall?" Mirian asked. She had just come out of the bath; a towel hung around her neck and she wore comfortable clothes.

  Short shorts and a long shirt, with damp patches from her freshly washed skin.

  "It’s nothing. But how long are we going to stay here?"

  "Here in the dungeon? Well… until we get a weapon for you. That’s what we agreed on, right?"

  'A weapon? That sounds good…'

  Mirian walked closer and sat in front of Ryan.

  She extended her hand, and a bow appeared, covered in a bright aura.

  "Helen and I have epic weapons. It’s not fair that, being on the same team, you still don’t have at least a rare or epic one. Especially since your staff broke, heh, heh, heh."

  'So my staff broke? But I don’t remember having a staff when I tested the game…'

  Ryan reflected for a moment.

  'Could it be that… this world doesn’t follow the game’s rules one hundred percent? No, it doesn’t matter. It’s not like I know that much about the game anyway…'

  "Are there other people who come to this floor? We’re on the hundredth floor, right?"

  "Of course not," Helen replied, having just come out of the bath and walking toward them. She sat on the edge of the seat where Mirian was.

  Helen crossed her legs and added,

  "We reached this dungeon by accident, after all."

  "Yep. If we hadn’t fallen off that dragon, who would have imagined there’d be a dungeon in the sky?"

  "That surprised me a lot. It wasn’t even mentioned in the books."

  'A dungeon in the sky? A dragon… well, I’m trapped inside a game. Things like that shouldn’t surprise me.'

  "But then… how far are we from a city? Wait, how long have we been here? Has anyone been keeping track?"

  "I already forgot," Helen grumbled.

  "If I’m not mistaken, we’ve been here 26 days… though it only took us 18 days to reach this floor. After killing the boss we got the refuge, but unfortunately we didn’t find any more epic weapons. Still, the monsters here are S-css and give a lot of experience."

  "They used to," Helen corrected. "Now that we’re S-css, it’s not that much anymore…"

  "Yeah, you’re right."

  "You’re S-css… but I’m not," Ryan compined under his breath.

  "That’s normal. A support’s job doesn’t require more than mana. And you’re a rank B support, probably the only one in the capital."

  Helen paused.

  "Nowadays it’s very hard to find rank B or A supports."

  "Tsk, that’s why we didn’t look for another one… and we have to stick with you even though you’re such a pervert…" Helen muttered quietly.

  "But you know I don’t do it on purpose…"

  "Alright, alright, calm down. Even if there were another rank B support, we’d never leave you, right, Helen?"

  "Yeah, yeah."

  "Ha, ha, you should be more honest."

  "..."

  "Girls."

  Both of them looked at Ryan attentively.

  "What do you think about clearing the dungeon again?"

  "What! Of course not."

  "Calm down, Helen. But Ryan, why are you suggesting that?"

  "It’s just… maybe I’ll find a weapon if we start from scratch."

  'It would make sense to think that if I don’t have a weapon, it’s because I haven’t killed any monsters. From the first floor, with my increased stats, I could get something. And even if I don’t, I could gain more experience and level up.'

  "I see… although we’ve been here for several days and nothing’s happening, maybe we should leave. But this dungeon doesn’t have a portal. Going to the first floor is actually… clearing the dungeon in reverse, heh, heh, heh."

  "Ha, that’s really annoying," Helen compined.

  "But it’s not like we’re going to live here forever, right?"

  "..."

  "You’re right. Besides, we’re not finding good food anymore…"

  "...Well, even though Mirian cooks well, eating monsters is disgusting."

  They all fell silent.

  After processing it for a while, Ryan broke the silence.

  "Then let’s go. We’ve already spent too many days in the dungeon."

  They nodded. After a moment, they had put on their armor and left the refuge.

  The monsters in the area they had cleared hadn’t appeared yet. According to Helen and Mirian, each one respawned an hour after dying, so they went straight to the ninety-ninth floor.

  "Tsk… Undead. I hate fighting those things," Helen grumbled.

  "Ryan," Mirian spoke.

  'I know what they want. I’m not that dumb.'

  "Physical Enhancement."

  "Magical Enhancement."

  Their bodies lit up as they received the support enchantments and took their positions to fight.

  "You’d better have a decent order this time."

  "...Yeah, don’t worry."

  'Actually, I had already forgotten, heh, heh.'
