Chapter 100: Shocking Improvements

[Dungeon Master Slain – Blood Monarch LVL 50]

[Dungeon Master Domain Broken.]

[EXP refunded.]

"Huh?" Shiro muttered in surprise as she got a few notifications that she had never seen before. New terms such as the Dungeon Master and Dungeon Master Domain had Shiro guessing their meanings. While she could guess what they could be due to their rather obvious names, she wasn't too sure as to why the domain was 'Broken' and the fact that EXP was refunded.

However, her eyes only widened in shock seeing her level sudden propel to level 43 in one shot. Meanwhile, Yin had also increased her level to level 35 in one go.

With her level being at level 35, Yin had unlocked a passive rather than an active skill.

[Shadow Affinity (Tier 1)]

Increases user's shadow attunement to match the Tier. If the attunement is higher, no changes will happen.

+5% Effectiveness, Efficiency and Duration when using Shadow Type Skills.

Currently affected skills: Shadow Buff, Shadow Cloak, Shadow Talon.

But, the question still remains.

'Why did I shoot up to level 43 in one go?' Shiro thought to herself. While she knew that her levelling speed had slowed down considerably after entering this dungeon, she didn't give it much thought.

[Due to the fact that the host was in the domain of a foreign monster leader, EXP experience gained had been suppressed. Now that the Dungeon Master is slain, you are no longer in their territory. Therefore, you are no longer suppressed.]

Looking at the system's explanation, Shiro only tilted her head to the side.

'Why didn't this happen back in the first dungeon? I thought it had mutated as well?' Shiro thought with a frown.

[That's because the host was within your own 'territory' as you were born there. However, you were invading the Blood Monarch's territory so invading monsters would be suppressed while humans aren't. The moment you killed the Dungeon Master, all the EXP you had acc.u.mulated had been refunded.]

'Why are monsters suppressed?'

[If an enemy monster enters your domain, would you want them to get stronger by killing your underlings? Dungeon Master's have the option of heavily limiting an invading monster's EXP gain to avoid the monster getting strong enough to take their throne.]

'Right…' Turning her attention away from the system's explanation, Shiro flicked her wrist causing the Harbinger's Songs to disassemble themselves.

Walking over to the rest of the group, Shiro could see that they had a lot of questions but their main task was to help heal Jonas, Madison and Trace. Paul was already a lost cause and everyone else only had small injuries.

Reaching her hand out to help Lyrica, Shiro pulled her on her feet.

"What was that Shiro? I thought Guns don't work on monsters." Lyrica asked.

Looking at the party, Shiro noticed that only Trace, Silvia and Lyrica had seen her use her hand cannons.

[That was a pair of hand cannons called Harbinger's Song. I found them in my inventory. I just never used them since I wasn't strong enough to equip them.] Shiro replied with half the truth.

She wasn't lying. With her level-ups, she had just barely unlocked Hand Cannon creation.

Lyrica frowned a little when she saw that Shiro wasn't lying, but also wasn't telling the full truth. While it did make her a little sad, she knew that ignorance was a bliss and the fact that a gun could work against monster's would cause the government to pursue Shiro for her secrets.

"Alright." Lyrica nodded, showing Shiro that she accepted that explanation.

Shiro only sighed since she knew what Lyrica was thinking. As much as she wanted to tell her, there were more chances of slip-ups the more she knew.

Walking over to the party, Trace had a slightly blank face seeing the corpse of his dead friend. When Shiro walked over, he gritted his teeth and glared at her.

"You! If you could kill the boss, why didn't you do it sooner! If you did, Paul wouldn't have needed to die!" Trace shouted out in anger.

Shiro kept her blank face as it held no pity for Trace.

Had they not shown the fact that they wanted to do something regrettable since they thought they were going to die, Shiro would have been willing to expose her cards a bit faster rather than being reluctant since she couldn't trust the either of them.

However, she was prepared to hold this responsibility.

[Everyone has their secrets. I just didn't want you guys to know mine.] Shiro crouched in front of him and typed out.

"So for this secret of yours, you were willing to let Paul die!" Trace screamed in anger as he reached his hands out to grab her.

*KRRR!!!

Ice spread out from Shiro's feet as it froze Trace up on the spot leaving his head exposed.

[Yes. Unless I'm with the people I trust, I would erase everyone who knew of my secret.] Shiro replied seriously.

Should there be any moment where she would need to expose her secrets to people she doesn't trust or her enemies, she would make sure that she destroyed all evidence that may reveal her second class.

Trace shivered seeing how serious she was.

"Urg…" Jonas muttered weakly as he sat up from Silvia's healing.

Seeing that Jonas had woken up, Shiro unfroze Trace and walked up to Jonas.

[How are you feeling?] Shiro ask. Out of his entire party, she only cared for him and Silvia. The rest of the party, Erica, Trace and Paul, she didn't feel much comradery to.

"Except for the fact that I'm lacking an arm, I'm fine." Jonas replied with a small laugh.

[Well, we can wait a little longer for Silvia to heal everyone up.] Shiro typed out with a small smile.

"Oh right, what about the casualties?" Jonas asked as he looked around.

[Paul died, you and Madison had the worst injuries. Erica, Trace, Silvia had light injuries while me and Lyrica are pretty much fine.]

"I see… Paul died…" Jonas muttered as he clenched his fist.

"Jonas! Shiro let Paul die! She could have killed the boss much earlier but she wanted to hide some bullsh*t secret of hers!" Trace shouted out.

"I already know that Miss Shiro had some secrets that doesn't need to be known by us. How else would she stand against the army? However, be grateful that we're still alive." Jonas shook his head. Thankfully, Shiro wasn't one of the more extreme cases where she would kill everyone here in the dungeon to retain her secret.

"You!" Trace gritted his teeth and looked at Silvia.

"What about you Silvia! Surely you agree that it's Shiro's fault that Paul died right!" He asked.

Silvia only bit her lower lip and looked away.

She already knew how much Shiro had put on the line to keep the party safe for all this time.

Plus, casualties in a Dungeon wasn't rare. She had long gotten used to seeing people die, especially in the raids. Only this time Paul was a friend of hers.

Trace only gritted his teeth and glared at Shiro with killing intent that he didn't know he was releasing.

Shiro narrowed her eyes as she watched Trace walk away.

'I should tie up any loose ends.' Shiro thought. She flexed her fingers as two ice daggers appeared in her left hand.

"Shiro, Please. Can you just let him go? He just lost his best friend." Silvia begged as she grabbed onto Shiro's sleeve.

Giving her a side glance, Shiro sighed and destroyed the daggers. She decided to let him go as repayment for letting Paul die.

[If he causes any trouble for me in the future, just know that I won't stay my hand this time.]

"Thank you." Silvia replied in relief. She could only hope that Trace wouldn't be stupid.

However, what they didn't know was that with her right hand, she had already flicked a small chip that embedded itself inside Trace's spine. The moment he said a keyword relating to her Nanomancer class, the chip would kill him whilst making it seem like a natural death.

Letting Silvia heal Madison, Shiro checked the drops of the boss before updating her stats. Who knows if she'd be able to find anything interesting. After all, her gains in this dungeon run were pretty significant.

Especially since she had gained the Blood Crystal Armour Set.

Looking through the pile of loot, there were quite a few super rare materials that would almost guarantee a purple weapon when a blacksmith used them.

'I should see if I can rent a workshop for Helion to make Lyrica another weapon. Maybe this time I can get her a blade whip combo.' Shiro thought to herself whilst rummaging through the other loot drops.

Surprisingly, the boss had carried four purple weapons with him. Two swords, an Axe and a Spell Rod.

The two swords here set equipment so they would only show their true potential when paired together.

[Twin Blood Devourers – LVL 50 – Purple (2/2)]

Requirements: 4000 STR

+700 Sharpness (When paired)

+500 Attack

+350 Attack Speed

+150 Life Steal

+150 Bleed

-250 DEF

The swords resembled katanas and were coloured completely black with blood-red runes etched to the blade of the katanas.

Unfortunately, the katanas were one of the weapons that she hardly used. Not to mention, she didn't even know if she could dual wield these katanas. Just the 4000 STR requirement was just borderline insanity.

Hardly anyone would push all of their points into STR and neglect the rest of their stats.

Naturally, there were ways to reduce the requirements but by the time they got the titles and items to help decrease the requirements, they would have gotten better weapons already.

Storing the twin katanas away, Shiro looked at the Axe and Spell Rod.

[Blood Warrior Axe – LVL 50 – Purple]

Requirements: 2000 STR

+250 Attack

+250 Momentum Boost

+100 Bleed

+50 Blood Poison

-100 Attack Speed

[Blood Mage Staff – LVL 50 – Purple]

Requirements: 2000 INT

+200 INT

+200 Spell Damage

+10% effectiveness with Blood Type Spells

+100 Life Steal

+100 Mana Leach

Both were decent but Shiro had no use for either of them. While she may be a mage, she was a hybrid mage that could shift to all ranges of attack. Standing still and using a spell rod was not her fighting style. As for the Axe, she could probably hand it over to Madison since she used an axe when she went into the Attack Demon Knight Form.

[Jonas, you're fine if I take all the loot right?] Shiro asked, glancing over at the wounded adventurer.

"Yeah take it. I have no use for it." Jonas replied. Giving Shiro the loot was a small payment for keeping his life.

Shiro nodded and stored all of the loot away in her inventory.

With the loot sorted, Shiro shifted her attention to her stats. After her EXP was refunded by the system, she had a whopping 1000 points to spent on her stats. Not only that, but the jump from level 39 to 43 also gave her the 4th star up.

Just a single run of this dungeon had benefited her greatly, allowing her stats to shoot through the roof. Especially with her 380k+ MP right now.

Unfortunately, to her confusion, she had not been able to unlock the next firearm which would have been either the shotgun or the sniper. There was also the option of a submachine gun and assault rifles, but she'd rather wait for the Gatling Gun. After all, the submachine guns and the assault rifles didn't pack the punch she liked.

A heavy-hitting weapon was what really got her blood pumping. The feeling of controlling the recoil, the explosion and the destruction she would cause with her weapons is what made the heavy weapons truly rewarding.

With her Status updated, Shiro looked at the requirements of her 4th star up.
