As soon as the first streaks of dawn peeked out of the sky, the group was already awake. Tyre and Parch were assigned to cook and prepare breakfast. As for Octavia, she is left with the task of making sure that everything they need is properly prepared and packed.Claire doesn’t need to do anything since she is basically the master of the whole group. But she still insisted in helping out Octavia. Something which the female knight could do nothing about but permit.As for Asther, the necromancer is the one overseeing everything. He moved around the camp, making sure that things are as they should. At the same time, while making these rounds, Asther is also thinking up of the various training courses that he can use depending on how the dungeon looks like.Even though the place is called as such, dungeons in Jhinn are a bit different. They do not look like the inside of a cave nor that of a labyrinth. No. The dungeons inside this world has the attribute of being unique. That is, every
Just as Asther ordered, the group slowly made their way through the designated path. However, Asther is no at the front of the group. Rather he is the one furthest back. And there is a good reason for this.As the leader of the group and, as the one with the sharpest senses, Asther will be able to easily see any enemies from a distance. As soon as he does, he can summon his undead to cover for the others. Giving them enough time to transition to a fight.Of course, the group would never agree to this if any of them needed to be the one at the front. That’s why Asther assigned this role to his devil masked hobgoblin. With the creature riding on the undead wolf that is bigger than the horses that the group is using.With this, the mentioned problem is resolved instantly. Furthermore, this also serves as a way to ensure that the group is using the path that Asther told them to take. With the undead in front, they are sure that they are on the right road. Not questioning it because the un
As soon as Asther finished fighting, the remains of the monsters turned into loot. He didn’t need to bother collecting these himself. He has the undead there to serve for this purpose. And that is exactly what he made the creatures do. They picked up everything for him, all while Asther himself received a new notification from the System.[Notice: The recent display has increased the understanding of your allies. Adding explanations or making them come up on their own regarding how you won would allow them to gain an increase in their intelligence stat.]“So that’s how it is.”Asther was actually wondering how he’d be able to increase the intelligence stat of his allies. It’s not like they have a System just like him. They won’t be able to allocate their status points to the ones that they desire when they level up. That’s why Asther also thought that the first mission would be a chore to finish. Yet, the current display of the System told him otherwise.“Alright, I guess that’s what
“You called?” Claire came to Asther as soon as they finished eating.Asther told the group that he’d have to talk to them one by one. As for those whom he won’t be talking to just yet, all they need to do is to continue their training. Not through sparing matches but by fighting Asther’s undead.This way, they don’t need to worry about holding back while fighting. They can go all out and, they can even use their skills in a fight. As for the risk of getting found out by the monsters in the forest, Asther made them train within the border. A spot which is sure to not have any monsters in it.As mentioned, the first one he called is Claire. This didn’t seem weird, except for Claire who thought that the real fighters should be the first ones called. Nevertheless, she followed Asther’s command. Leading to that current moment.“Do you know why I called you here?” Asther asked.“Is that a trick question or something?” Claire asked. “You didn’t mention anything a while back. All you said is
Asther made a couple of preparations before the fight could begin. The first thing that he did is look at the new mission that has been unlocked. This is in order for him to have a good idea on what he needed to do for Claire’s training.[New Mission Unlocked!][Progressing Mission: Creating The Goddess of the Spear][Notice: The mission only applies to the party member named Claire.]“Progressing Mission? What’s that?” Asther asked his System.[This is a mission that will have different stages. Once one part of it is cleared, a new part will be added right away. That is how a progressing mission works master.]“How about the rewards?”[Every part of the progression missions that finishes will generate a corresponding reward. Up until the desired power level of the person in question is finally reached.]“That’s a really useful feature.” Asther commented. “How come I never had anything like that?”[The God of War believes that you will be too powerful if you are also given a progressi
Octavia believes that there are things which she will never see in her lifetime. One of these is actually finding a guy who would be able to impress her enough for her to fall in love with him. This has already been broken. Although, she doesn’t want to admit it to herself.As for the other things. One of them is meeting the hero face to face. Then there’s also facing the demon lord head on. There are a lot on this long list. But, that afternoon, one of these has been broken.She saw Claire Ildefonso looking like a complete mess. She can barely walk so Asther needed to assist her. With Claire’s arm placed around Asther’s shoulders. Claire’s hair is also a mess and her clothes is drenched in sweat.Thankfully, the male servants aren’t back from their training yet. Unknown to Octavia, this is actually thanks to Asther’s foresight. The necromancer specifically gave the three fighters a different time of ending their training because, he knew that Claire would need Octavia’s assistance as

On the second day, Asther didn’t go with Claire anymore. Instead, he went to train Octavia. And there is a good explanation for this.At the moment, no matter what she does, Claire won’t be able to keep fighting for a solid ten minutes without getting drained. Gaining more stamina doesn’t happen that quickly.That’s why he decided to let her continue the routine for five more days. This isn’t enough for a normal human. But Asther knows that Claire is far from normal as well. And he has high expectations for her. That is also why he knows that she won’t give up on the hellish training no matter what.He already gave her the items that she needed. More stamina potions and a refill on a couple of water bottles from a nearby stream. Asther found the later mentioned location when he went to search for the monsters. He also tested this using his Analysis in order to make sure that it’s both safe and drinkable. Giving the group a steady supply of clean water.As for the Tyre and Parch, Asthe
