Chapter 24

Chapter 24: RMB Adventurers, Their Power is Terrifying!

For adventurers, magic is the power that causes supernatural phenomena.

Generally perceived as an extremely powerful force, it usually requires chanting and consuming corresponding mental energy to activate. The longer the chant, the greater the power.

An adventurer with magic can become a core member of a team.

After all, wizards are always in demand anywhere. Many difficult situations often require just one spell to solve.

At first, Izay’s ability to cast spells by simply stating their names left Raul both shocked and envious.

But compared to what just happened, that was like comparing a candle to the sun; there’s no comparison at all.

That previous attack definitely unleashed a power beyond its level—something that Lv1 adventurers could never achieve.

The cavern’s passageways within sight were almost completely destroyed. Wisps of smoke still lingered, carrying specks of crystalline starlight, leaving everything around looking like it had been ravaged by a typhoon.

The Murder Ants were utterly annihilated under that assault, even the Magic Stones they dropped on the ground were cracked and damaged.

Magic Stones dropped by monsters in the Dungeon can be shattered.

When subjected to strong attacks, the stones break, but the power contained within also vanishes.

Actually, shattering Magic Stones is the most effective way to kill monsters, but few adventurers do this.

It’s like tearing up the money you’ve earned yourself.

Not only would it make a day’s hard work go to waste, but it would also leave you broke.

Izay had also used his magic for the first time, probably misjudging its power. He didn’t expect that it would nearly destroy the Magic Stones.

He originally planned to use “Silver Starfall” and its Additional Magic enhancement to dominate among the Murder Ants…

But instead, it was one-hit KO from the start!

Smoke lingered on the devastated cavern floor as Raul picked up a nearby Magic Stone based on the principle of not wasting resources.

Still hot, the surface of the stone had cracks, and it crumbled into ashes like burnt charcoal the moment he touched it.

Raul twitched his lips and couldn’t help but speak when he saw Izay sheepishly walking over with his spear:

“The Magic Stones are directly destroyed… Looks like we won’t have any gains from this battle. Those Murder Ants probably didn’t survive.”

“Not to mention, does your magic really belong at Lv1? It feels like exaggeration isn’t enough to describe it!”

“Ho ho, it’s my first time using it… I didn’t know beforehand.”

“…”

Instantly, Raul fell silent.

What a first-time user. He wished he could experience casting magic too…

Originally, Raul, as a Lv4 adventurer, had savings to buy a Magic Tome to awaken magic.

But reality was cruel.

For some reasons, he spent all his savings, shattering his dream of magic temporarily.

Now he could only look on enviously as Izay wielded his spear.

After dealing with the first batch of Murder Ants born on the seventh floor, the subsequent spawn rate returned to normal, avoiding another small-scale monster feast.

On the bright side,

Izay’s silver-gray spear, once crafted as a backup weapon by Finn, the former leader of Loki’s faction, proved to be quite durable.

Even without magic, Izay could easily pierce through the hard carapaces of Murder Ants thanks to the sharpness of his spear.

There wasn’t a trace of a rookie adventurer’s awkwardness about him.

So, having good equipment is indeed crucial for an adventurer.

Just like a certain protagonist in the original story.

Before obtaining those two hundred million black knives, fighting monsters was painstaking.

But after getting the black knives, it was like a different person—two swift slashes, slicing through enemies effortlessly.

Maybe this is the power of RMB adventurers, terrifying indeed!

…………

“Pfft—!”

The sound of a monster being pierced rang out. The next second, the Metal Rabbit that leaped to attack lost its life, dropping its Magic Stone.

Izay let out a breath, driven by excitement, he had been exploring the Dungeon almost nonstop.

Even though he was feeling a bit tired from the long battles,

They had just reached the end of the seventh floor.

That was because he wanted to familiarize himself with the upper levels’ environment, so he and Raul took many detours.

In other words, mapping.

After all, if you don’t map properly in a maze, aren’t you just asking to get lost later?

“Tsk tsk, Metal Rabbit fur, Murder Ant limbs… So many drops, plus all the rare materials in my backpack, phew… Honestly, I’m envious.”

While expressing envy, Raul followed behind Izay, shaking his head.

Based on his experience, Izay’s haul today in the Dungeon would leave those seasoned Lv1 veterans stuck in the lower floors far behind.

“What’s there to envy? You’ve got a share in these gains too.”

Putting away his spear, Izay walked over to Raul.

“Ah, it’s not the same. Judging by your freakish luck, the biggest part of today’s haul will be the dropped items, and the value of those Magic Stones might not match the profit from the drops.”

Raul sighed.

“Oh? Are you regretting it, bro?”

Izay teased.

From the very beginning when they entered the Dungeon, they agreed to split the Magic Stones fifty-fifty.

Even though he did all the fighting, Izay had no objections to this arrangement.

Firstly, Raul was his companion in the Familial Group, family doesn’t squabble over such things.

Secondly, as a supporter, Raul’s role was significant.

Supporters are a special role in Orario, complementary to adventurers.

They enter the dungeon alongside adventurers but aren’t fighters. They handle luggage, backup weapons, potions, props, collect Magic Stones, and provide support, playing an important role in the team.

In dangerous situations, they cover from afar with Bow and Arrow or traps, making them reliable teammates.

If it weren’t for Raul sweeping the battlefield along the way, Izay wouldn’t have been able to explore and fight so recklessly.

Returning to pick up Magic Stones and drops after a fight…

Just thinking about it makes it seem troublesome.

However, the distribution of rewards for Raul didn’t include the dropped items.

Because initially, Raul thought Izay, being a rookie, would rarely obtain dropped items, so he didn’t plan to compete with him.

But now…

“Yes, I am a little regretful. There are so many dropped items. To be honest, I’m craving them~”

Without hiding his thoughts, Raul nodded frankly.

At this point, Izay patted his shoulder and said consolingly,

“Don’t worry, after I convert these drops into cash, you’ll regret even more and crave them even more!”

“…”
