( Hours Later)

< Player has returned to the previous location >
....
" *GASP* !!!! " Ragna returns in tears as he hard-landing back to his medic bed, crushing it during the fall as it attracts the nurses.
" Wha .. what happened!!!??? " they immediately asked as they see the bed was cut in half with Ragna lying there with his clothes and pants torn apart.
" Goddamn, Curse !!!! " Ragna Current says faintly as the nurses took him into another room.
" How dare it, no ... it's a 'she' isn't it? " he says while touching the front of his pants as he just experience the most painful punishment you can ever give to a man.
During his transfer, Ragna Twelve then communicates with him and asks what happened which made Ragna Current angrily asks using his mind about the Punishment Zone wondering if Twelve knows about that place.
Hearing that, Twelve declines as he was still in the System Space for his own meditation as he asks back about the 'Punishment Zone' that Ragna Current is talking about.
"( Seriously, you also didn't know? )" Ragna asks as the Window then shows in front of him.
< System Chat: >
< System: It was me ^-^ >
< System: I'm the one who brings you there without Twelve knowing teeheee...!!! >
"( What !!!!????)" said both of them in their minds as they didn't know that the system is as intelligent as Ragna Current then was transported into another Medic Room to deal with his sudden wounds.
...
( Two hours later. )
" So, I have to complete this quest or I will meet that curse again huh ...? " Ragna Current says while remembering the things she (the Yakan Divine Curse) had done to him in that place as he also remembers the corpses of his body in that place as the System remake his body, only to make him be destroyed by the Curse's nasty behavior.
" That curse, that female fox .... or whatever it is... "
" It seems she was cast in my body to only torture and break me, nothing else isn't it? " Ragna Current asks Ragna Twelve, asking him why did he have to contain the curse inside his Core as his Core's Power Source which Ragna Twelve replies that the curse is strong and he thinks that Ragna Current should learn to use it instead of discarding it or giving it to other people.
" Besides, the curse had the amazing and disastrous ability, not only to sever one's power from themselves but also to make other people suffer. " Ragna Twelve says he then tells Rangna Current to continue his Daily Tasks while he leaves back inside the System Space.
After Ragna Twelve's invisible spiritual body leaves his sight, he then looks back at the System to see the quest is still ongoing.

" Grrrkhhh .... "
" Fine then ... "
" I'll do it. " Ragna says as he then does the quests, immediately doing the sit-ups, and then continues to complete the other tasks for many hours long as he does that until past afternoon where it can be seen that he is running around the Hunter Association's hospital where the nurse can see him running like hell as if he was chased by something.
" That boy is so .... "
" Energetic, is it not? " said one of the nurses.
" Yeah, he's one of the hunters, isn't he? " they ask as one of the other nurses comes to them and explains that Ragna is just Bait and a Carrier, not a Hunter which shocks them since they knew that the people who usually do those jobs rarely survives unlike what the people tell them about Ragna as they all know that he's the sole survivor of the suddenly turned Blue Rare Gate.
" Did he receive another Gift from the gods? "
" I heard sometimes, that the gods often gift some Gift Core to people who dare themselves to fight the monster despite being Ungifted after birth. "
" Who knows? "
" Maybe because he is just lucky or his gift just manifested in his middle-age days like my cousin who just recently manifested his birth Gift. " said the nurse as she and the other ones who discussed Ragna while the person they discussed right now is now taking rest after finishing his tasks.
< Quest Completed >
< Reward: >
< [Normal Dungeon Key (1) ] >
"( Dungeon Key? )" Ragna says as he then sees his window only to see that it seems the System had already added the weapons he stole from the corpses back in that Dungeon which is very helpful since he wants to try the key to open a Dungeon that said to be nearby, near the Hunter Hospital.
" I still had more EXP to go .... " he says while seeing his status.

....
" Since this system works like a game, then it seems that the only to raise my statuses is to kill some monsters. " Ragna says while looking at the Key he obtained from his reward.
After seeing his current status, he then states he can't only do the normal tasks if he wants to get stronger, at least become stronger to withstand the very thing that tortures him inside his body.
" I need to get stronger to survive that Living Divine Curse. " Ragna said as he then walks away from his chair and goes to a nearby alley where he sees on the map that there was a Dungeon Gate there, an invisible Dungeon Gate that didn't seem to be seen by the people around it.
"( It seems only I that can see this Gate thanks my Map. )" Ragna says as he then uses the [Normal Dungeon Key (1) ] to enter it as the Gate then swallow him into the Dungeon, entrapping him inside while disconnecting his presence into the outside world.
" They can't hear me? " he asked while trying to call some passerby near his place.
Seeing no reaction, he begins to wander around the Dungeon, hoping that the Normal Dungeon will only give him some weak monsters that he can easily kill, hoping from those monsters, will give him some quick level up.
" Wait, is that a ... " Ragna says as he sees some water slimes in front of him.
< Water Slimes (LVL.2) >
*System's Notification*
< Message >
< Quest Info: >
< [Incomplete] Kill some slimes (0/6) >
When the System shows him that, the slimes then notice his presence as they begin to attack him with their water blasts, hitting Ragna who was still not ready for the attack.
" Grrkkkk .... "
< HP-25 >
" Dammit! "

*GP (Gift Point):
The number of Divine Gift power inside one's Gift Core, normally the GP for other people is >1.000 since the lowest GP in this world is 1.100 which categories its Core Tier at Tier I.
