"This creature has some skills I did not expect it to have. Thanks to my health regeneration skill, I'm still alive. That thing's endurance is low, he won't be able to keep up with my attacks now."
Amaya took a deep breath then let it out.
['Cooldown Reduce' has been activated]
[Enemy has activated 'Burst']
The demon shot forward and swung his sword at Amaya.
"Dash."
['Attack Amplifier' has been activated.
She moved to the side as she slammed her knee into its chest.
The wind shook as the demon blew apart.

[Leveling Error: You have reached your max level]
"I reached my max level? I think I get it now. Everybody has a different max level, that's why only very few people can become high rankers because only very few have a high level capacity. Analyze my new stats."
(Level: 500 Hp:2,981,729 Mp: 782,368 Atk:381,368 Speed: 765 Endurance: 964)
"Well, I guess I went as far as I can go. Time to make a new goal. Hmmmm...what should I do? Oh, I know. I should find a way to travel between this world and my world. Wait is that even possible? No, probably not. How would that affect me even if it was?"
She then roughly shook her head.
"Right now, I have to get back to the guild and get my reward for clearing the dungeon."
Amaya then turned to look at the demon's sword and noticed a small blue book on the floor.
"What is that? Amaya thought to herself.
She walked over to it and crouched down to get a closer look.
['Analyze' has been activated]
(Gift Book: When opened, it allows you to choose a gift from a list inside. Once you have chosen one, the book will disappear.")
Amaya wore a confused but somewhat curious look on her face.
"A gift? What kind does that mean?"
She then picked up the book and opened it.
A list came into view.
(You may choose 1 Gift from the following list: Limb repair, Forbidden knowledge, Curse remover, Disease Remover, Skill: Give,)
Amaya stared at the list in confusion.
"There's so many choices but, I don't really have any use for any of them. Wait, maybe I do. I choose, Curse remover."
The book disappeared and something came up into view.
(Which of the following curses would you like to remove: Bad Luck, No other curses.)
At that moment, Amaya felt many emotions. Confusion, excitement and even sadness.
Tears were beginning to drip from her eyes as she talked to herself.
"I...can actually remove that? I can finally get rid of what made my life so bad? Why now out of all times? Why couldn't it have been removed before everyone abandoned me when I was a kid?"
She then wiped the tears from her eyes then shook her head.
"It's too late to change any of that now. I'll just focus on what I can change now. I choose to remove Bad Luck."
[Curse has been removed 'Bad Luck']
Amaya smiled in excitement. She hasn't felt like that for as long as she could remember. Inside, she found inner peace because the one thing that made her life so hard, was finally gone.
"There's just one more thing I have to do."
['Storage' has been activated]
She picked up the demon's sword and placed it in the portal.
['Storage' has been deactivated]
"Now I can leave."
Amaya turned to face the giant doors and began walking.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(Legendary Dungeon)...All the adventurers including Shinya have been walking through the dungeon for quite sometime now.
Everybody's walking came to a stop. Up ahead were.
6 different large tunnels.
Shinya turned to face the rest of the adventurers,
"OKay, looks like we'll have to split up into groups. In order to do that I need the number of how many adventurers we have, divided by ranks."
Atsuya stepped forward.
"We have 22 silver rankers, 10 gold including you, 8 platinum including me and 5 legendary rankers, including Akemi."
Shinya held his hand to his chin as he thought of how to divide them.
"Okay, 3 sliver, Ginji, Gaku and Kioshi, take the tunnel on the far left.
3 silver, 1 Gold, Hakaru and Alison, take the second tunel.
For the third tunnel, I need 3 silver, 1 gold, Ayumi and Seiya.
Fourth tunnel needs 3 silver, 1 gold, Genta and Akemi.
Fifth tunnel, 5 silver, 4 gold, Atsuya and one other platinum ranker.
The sixth tunnel needs 5 silvers, 4 gold, I will be going with this group. You may all go to your tunnels now."
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Amaya had arrived back at the guild. She went inside and walked up to the counter.
"What can I do for you, Amaya." Hana asked.
"I want to get my rank re-evaluated." Amaya replied.
"That'll be 5,000 honor. Do you really want to spend that much on getting your rank re-evaluated?"
Amaya held out her hand as a bag of coins appeared.
"The price isn't really a problem. I have lots of coins."
She then placed it on the counter.
Hana grabbed the back then replied.
"O-Okay, I'll re-evaluate your rank right away."
She then leaded over the counter and stared at Amaya.
(Amaya: Overall: 4,547,257)
At that moment, Hana stepped back in disbelief.
Amaya was confused as to what happened.
"Why do you always freak out when you see my overall?"
Hana still could not believe Amaya's growth in power.
She then replied.
"Y-You, have reached ....the Legendary-Rank"
Most of the adventurers sitting at the tables heard what hana had said.
Multiple conversations were then held by them.
"Did you hear that?"
"She's a Legendary-ranker?!"
"No way…"
"I knew it!"
"Wasn't she only an S-rank before?"
Amaya then looked at Hana.
"Why did you have to say that out loud?"
"S-Sorry." Hana replied.
"So I'm a Legendary ranker now?"
"Yes, your Legendary-rank number 3 in this guild. Your number six worldwide."
Amaya wore an excited smile on her face as she turned to face the entrance.
"I actually did it. I made it to Legendary-rank."
"What do you plan to do now?" Hana asked.
Amaya then turned back to face her.
"Me? I don't know. I'll probably head to the guild master's office, he said he'll have a weapon made for me."
"He's not there."
"What do you mean?" Amaya asked.
"He left for the legendary-ranked dungeon raid."
Amaya then looked at the quest wall as she replied.
"Legendary-rank dungeon, huh?...Sounds fun."
Hanan wore a blank expression on her face questioning Amaya's state of mind.
"What?"
Amay then turned to face her once more.
"I said it sounds fun. I think I'll go check it out."
She then began walking towards the entrance as she continued.
"I wonder what kind of monster there will be."
Hana then called out to her.
"Wait!"
"What is it?" Amaya asked.
Amaya was now a Legendary-rank adventurer so Hana didn't have the authority to stop her from going on the quest. Instead of convincing her not to go. She just looked at her and wished her luck.
"You got this."
Amaya smiled.
"Hopefully."
She then walked out.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(Tunnel #5 Atsuya's group) Him and his group came to a stop. Up ahead were a group of monsters. The creatures each had dark red fur and glowing yellow eyes. They walked on all fours all while growling and showing their deadly sharp teeth. They were an animal type monster known as 'Blood Lions'.
Atsuya intensely stared at the lions right before giving the other's permission to fight.
"Let's destroy these creature's."
Him and the other adventurers all charged at the creatures and began fighting. Two lions jumped at Atsuya as he grabbed their throats and slammed them both on the ground.
"Two down."
Three more came and began swinging their claws at him as he moved around to dodge.
['Speed Boost' has been activated]
Astuya swung his fist into one of their faces then turned and kicked into the others chest.
One of the lions came from behind and bit down on his shoulder.
(Atsuya: Hp: 589,687/789,687)
"Damn!" He swung his elbow into its ribs and turned around and he slammed his fist into its throat.
"Five down."
Atsuya turned his head and noticed a couple adventurers having trouble with the creature's
[You have activated 'Godly Speed Boost']
He jumped forward and in just three seconds the lions fell to the floor.
Atsuya noticed that he was the last of the creatures as he looked around.
He then called out to his group of adventurers scattered around the area.
"Regroup!"
They all ran over to him in an orderly fashion.
"Has anyone been killed or injured?"
One of the men limbed forward and spoke.
"My leg, the creature bit down on it. I lost a high amount of health."
Atsuya walked up to him and signaled him to sit down.
Atsuya then kneeled down and held his hand on the man's leg wound.
"Healing nature, heal my target's wound and replenish his health."
A bright green light began shining from his hand and he held it there.
After a couple seconds had passed, he removed his hand and stood up.
"Try to stand."
The man slowly but surely stood up and replied.
"I can walk now, thank you."
Atsuya then turned around, facing forward.
"Let's continue."
He began walking further into the dungeon as the rest of his group followed.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(Tunnel #4 Akemi's group) After fighting off some monsters when they first entered their tunnel, they kept on walking.
Now, their walking all came to a stop as they reached a giant door.
Akemi looked and put her hand on the door then turned to face Genta and the rest of her group.
"Let's head back. We're done here."
"I was really hoping to fight some more monsters." Said Genta.
Akemi walked back over to the group as she replied.
"It's better that we come across less monsters than more."
Genta let out a sigh. He wanted to fight monsters but couldn't deny the face that she was right.
"Yeah, I guess you're right."
At that moment a burst of wind passed by right in front of Akemi, for a split second, she saw a blurr and what looked to be a humanoid creature.
She quickly turned to follow it but there was no sign of it.
Genta and the other adventurers stared at her in confusion.
"What's wrong?" Genta asked.
Akemi then replied while trying not to cause a panic.
"It's nothing."
Genta knew something was wrong by the way she suddenly turned around as if she had seen something. She was the type of person who wasn't too good at lying.
Akemi then began walking back towards the entrance of the dungeon as her group followed.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(Tunnel #3 Seiya's group)
He stopped walking and turned to face the rest of his group.
"Let's take a break and rest our legs. Stay on guard, monsters could show up at any time."
All the adventures began sitting against the walls of the tunnel as Seiya just kneeled down.
Ayumi walked over to him and put her hand on his shoulder.
"Whatcha doing?"
She then noticed him looking down on the floor examining a pair of footprints as he replied.
"These footprints, they look like they belong to a rampaging demon. It's strange, those types of monsters are usually only a silver or golf rank monster. If they're in a dungeon like this, they must be the elite type being led by a general type. That's' just a guess. Sorry for spooking you."
She was visibly shaken as she tried to play it off.
"I-It's alright. As a platinum ranker, I wouldn't get scared that easily."
He then smiled as he stood back up.
"Yeah, I guess you wouldn't-"
The other adventurers began yelling and screaming as they began fighting.
Seiya and Ayumi quickly turned around and drew their swords.
"What's happening?!"
That's when they noticed what was happening. They were getting attacked from behind.
There were lots of monsters that crawled on all fours. They stood eight feet tall and had sharp teeth and horns. Their skin was as dark as coal and their eyes gleamed red.
In the back of all the creature's stood one single monster. This one was different. It stood on both feet like a human and it's skin was grey. It's eyes were glowing purple and it's claws were silver-colored. It smiled as it slowly walked towards the adventurers who were desperately fighting the monsters. Its teeth were white and razor sharp.
Every step it took would send a dark terrifying feeling down the spines of Ayumi and Seiya.
"That thing's no good! Everyone regroup!!"
The adventurers were being slaughtered one by one as they fought the many creatures.
"They're not listening." He thought to himself.
Seiya's face then darkened as he put his hand on Ayumi's shoulder.
"That thing has to be around the level of a legendary boss. I can tell by the way my sixth sense feels around it. Try to gather the adventures who are still alive and lead them out of the cave.I'll try to hold them off by getting their attention."
She did want to leave him behind so she refused.
"I can't do that."
Seiya turned her head and glared at her as he spoke in a serious tone.
"Just..do it. Or everyone here will be slaughtered. Leave, now!"
She was clearly upset as a tear ran down her cheek but listened and understood. She ran off to the side and began calling out to the remaining adventurers in the tunnel.
Seiya's eyes glared at the monsters and suddenly, they all began to draw their attention to him.
As they came closer and closer, he thought to himself.
"Attention Seeker, a skill that lets me draw the attention of any monster. I guess it was useful after all."
The monster began jumping at him as me moved side to side and swung his sword.
Ayumi had gathered up the surviving adventurers . In her mind, she was sure that this could be the last time he saw him. She turned her head and looked at him as she thought to herself.
"Thank you."
She then turned back and began running towards the entrance as the survivors followed her.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(Legendary-Rank Dungeon Entrance) Amaya stood outside and approached the entrance.
I get a really bad feeling about this cave but something's telling me that I have to go. Amaya then held out her hand as a big sized sword appeared. It was the one she had gotten from fighting the bossin the last dungeon.
"This will come in handy, I know it will." She thought to herself.
She then began walking in.
