"Wait?! That's your plan?!" Hex screamed in amazement when he realized what Albrecht was trying to do.
In fact, everyone in the Spiderweb Party was aware of the Tamer's Collar. They also know just how much Tamer's Collar you need just to capture an F-Rank Beast.
There's no way that such a low-grade item could work on the dungeon boss.
The Tamer's Collar glowed a nice shade of red-orange. Ironically, this gave Albrecht a hint of relief since it proved that the Tamer's Collar was not faulty.
However, that still didn't change the fact that the Tamer's Collar has a .01% chance of working on Ylsafa, the Lightning Fire Lion Dungeon Boss.
Albrecht dodged the paw strike of Ylsafa and he grabbed Natalie out of the way. They just need to wait for the Tamer's Collar to work. This also meant that they don't have to risk their lives on the line.
"Is he crazy?" A nerve bulged on Erwin's head as he exclaimed. For the life of him, he couldn't believe that they risked their lives for such a ridiculous plan.
While Ylsafa needlessly struggled to get out of the Tamer's Collar, Albrecht and Natalia rejoined the group. From the looks of it, they could tell that Albrecht was not confident with his plan either
"Oi~ what was that about, Albrecht?!" Hex extended his hand and pointed at Ylsafa who was rolling on the ground with pure frustration in his roars.
"What do you mean?" Albrecht asked. He had no idea what Hex was referring to.
"I mean that. That! That's your plan? That's just a regular Tamer's Collar, right?" Hex still couldn't believe that their lives relied on a .01% chance. It was absurd!
"Yes, it is," Albrecht nodded his head. However, he knew that the item he was holding right now was not a regular Four Leaf Clover.
"Then we're going to die here. That's it. We were wrong to believe in you." Hex heaved a sigh. He didn't even have the energy to get angry anymore. He just accepted the fact that they were already dead.
It hasn't even happened yet, but in his mind, they were as good as the deceased. Hex was even imagining what he'd look like as a corpse.
"It's all right. It will work." Albrecht forced a smile on his face.
Honestly, he had no idea whether it would work or not. But since he found the Four Leaf Clover in the Whitelock Treasury, he believed that it was a one-of-a-kind Four Leaf Clover.
Albrecht was praying at this point. There was nothing they could do but mutter a silent prayer while hoping for a miracle.
And then it happened.
The Four Leaf Clover began glowing.
"Whoa~!" Albrecht exclaimed as he looked at the Four Leaf Clover in his hand. It turned into a nice shade of blue, and it shimmered in the light.
[Item: Blue Four Leaf Clover (SSS-Rank)- It is believed that one in every one thousand four-leaf clovers is something with immense luck. Hence it was called the Blue Four Leaf Clover. Upon acquisition, it is just a normal four-leaf clover, but if it is the rare one in a thousand, then it has a chance of turning into a Blue Four Leaf Clover. Legends say that the Blue Four Leaf Clover is a powerful luck item.]
"It's basically a shiny version of the Four Leaf Clover. It's my first time seeing one." Albrecht muttered to himself. He wasn't referring to the Blue Four Leaf Clover though since this was his first time seeing a Four Leaf Clover in the first place.

There was a brief pause while Hex and the rest of the Spiderweb Party internalized what was going on. The Tamer's Collar, which was supposed to have a .01% chance of working, actually worked?
How on Earth did that happen?!
"WHAT?!" Albrecht screamed. It was the riskiest gamble in his lifetime and it worked. Even he didn't believe that it would work and that he'd have no choice but to kill the dungeon boss instead of taming it.
But who would've thought that luck would be on his side? Quite literally.
"Did that just work?" Hex confirmed, rubbing his eyes before he slapped himself. He thought he was dreaming.
"N-no way that just worked... what on..." Erwin was also on the verge of slapping himself but he realized that it would be an embarrassing gesture.
"I knew it would work." Sylvia monotonously commented while flashing a thumbs up at Albrecht. "You did well."
"Kagh~ there's no way in hell that just worked." Natalie was also in denial but the proof was right there.
The Dungeon Boss was defeated, or rather, tamed right in front of their eyes.
Apparently, Albrecht's naming sense was trash. After little thought, he indifferently gave Ylsafa a different name 'Leo'. And then he was done with it.
[Due to System Restriction and the user's low level, the Lightning Fire Lion's Zecian Aura will be suppressed by 80%]
Well, Albrecht didn't think that much about it so he didn't argue with the System. He was still surprised that his plan worked. There were plenty of cases where it didn't work with the other Albrechts' so he was a tad bit nervous about it.
Then again, most of them didn't get the Blue Four Leaf Clover so that much was to be expected.

"Wait—" Hex trailed off when the reality sank in. "Did we just conquer a B-Rank Dungeon?" Hex asked out of nowhere.
Everyone looked at him as if he just said something unbelievable. Erwin turned away and he started sniffling. Natalie straight-up bawled her eyes out, and Sylvia couldn't help but smile as they realized what just happened.
"W-we really did, right? Right?!" Hex was grinning from ear to ear.
Albrecht heaved a sigh of relief. At the end of the day, his plan worked, and they were able to conquer the B-Rank Dungeon, ultimately conquering the Double Dungeon that trapped them.
"Let's get out of here," Albrecht let out, heaving a sigh of relief.
