In a heartbeat, Elisha closed the distance between him and an Undead Goblin that was crawling on the ground.
Once the lit torch approached the monster's body, it became agitated even though it had lost its limbs.
As soon as the fire touched its body, it spread extremely quickly and the monster stopped moving afterwards.
'No message? But it's not moving... Shit, do I have to burn the limbs they lost too?'
Now that he had the torch, the Undead Goblins were scared him .
Only when he burnt every single Undead Goblin did he receive a message.
[Congratulations!]
[You have cleared the Hidden Piece of the First Floor.]
[You have sacrificed 30 Magic points.]
[The Deities are impressed.]
'Really? Didn't seem like that big a deal...' Elisha thought.
[Compensation is being discussed.]
'Between the Deities?' He asked himself.
As he waited, Elisha looked around him.
He noticed dozens of weapons on the ground.
'Oh, right. Only the bodies disappear. The weapons stay. I guess I could take them, or maybe...'
"Right, Ummm, System? I'm not taking those weapons either, so... Add them to the Magic Points."
[The Deities inform you that this early, those weapons constitute a small fortune.]
[The Deities are pleased by your offering.]
'Seriously? Telling me that they cost a fortune only to take them away?'
[Compensation has been decided.]
Elisha held his breath in anticipation.
[You have been awarded 1 Vampiric Sword[D].]
[You have been awarded 10 Pouches Of Poison[E-].]
[Additional information will be yours and yours only on the next two Floors.]
[Most Deities look forward to your future success.]
[You will be teleported to your companions.]
"What? That's it?"
Elisha blinked and he disappeared.
The next second, he was in front of Frank, Keith and Alex.
"You're so late what's wrong with you?" Alex complained even though he really wanted to show off his magic to Elisha.
The latter had a broken expression.
"What's up?" Keith asked.
"Nothing... Nevermind..." Elisha answered as if his soul was leaving his body.
"You look like it wasn't too hard. Did you go for the Extreme Difficulty?" Frank asked.
"Sure did. Those arrows were so annoying."
Each one of them explained what they had gone through.
After that, Alex showed off his magic.
"WHAT THE HELL? THAT'S TOO COOL!!!" Elisha shouted.
"I KNOOW!!!" Alex responded.
"What about you guys??" Elisha asked.
"Physical Strengthening for me." Keith answered.
"Copy Magic." Frank said.
"Copy?"
"I can copy three Skills in total. But only from or monsters weaker or slightly stronger than me."
Tears appeared on Elisha's face.
"Inventory." He said before taking out his new weapon.
Elisha took out his Vampiric Sword.
It was a weapon made of silver.
The blade was shabby and worn.
Its edges and tip were dull.
Its hilt was red, but it did not look special.
"What? You guys got weapons?" Alex asked.
Frank and Keith shook their heads.
"Can I get some information on this?" Elisha asked.
[Vampiric Sword [D] :
A weapon made using silver and the fangs of an old Vampire.
The sword shall become more powerful the more blood it sucks.
Only blood from dead creatures can be ingested by the sword. ]
'Huh? So for now, it's shitty. Can't say that out loud since those Deities are watching but... I wonder if this was worth it.'
"Anyways, what now." Elisha asked as he put the weapon back in his Inventory.
"Show everyone my Status Window." Frank said.
The same information appeared in front of everyone.

"What does the title do?" Frank asked.
[Damage dealt to Wolf-Type Monsters is increased by 15%.]
"You have high Stats." Alex commented.
"I'm not sure about that. We have to compare since we're going to make a team on the next Floor." Frank explained.
"Oh. That's true. Show them mine." Alex said.

"Oh, looks like we have a mage in the making." Elisha said.
"Haha! Well, of course. I'll freeze and burn all enemies. My Title is pretty good too. It lets me know when an enemy is too strong for me."
"Keith?" Frank asked.
He did the same.

"Damn. And here I thought I would be the fastest. You Sense Stat is super high too." Frank commented.
"Yeah. I needed those because of the arrows. Oh, my Title gives me a slight boost in Stats when I'm in a disadvantage. That has to come in handy at some point."
"Well, our team sure is unbalanced." Keith said.
Everyone nodded.
"Nothing else to do here then."
[Would you like to enter the Second Floor?]
"The Second tutorial, huh? Alright."
"Let's do it."
"Shouldn't be too hard, yes."
"LET'S GOO!"
A portal appeared in the middle of the room.
