The 100th Regression of the Max-Level Player
Chapter 201: The Fifth Trial (1)[There is a hidden sub-quest!]
– Complete more than 3 trials alone.
– Reward upon success ▶ Rune Package
[You have completed the sub-quest!]
[A Rune Package has been awarded to your inventory.]
Ryu Min smiled contentedly as he looked at his reward.
‘It’s here. The sub-quest reward.’
There was no other reason he had decided to take on the trials alone up until now.
It was because he needed to obtain the sub-quest reward.
‘It seems the first trial didn’t count because I didn’t personally endure it.’From the second to the fourth trial, he handled everything by himself.
Thus, he was able to claim the rewards, but in fact, there was one more sub-quest in this round.
‘That’s why I brought the necromancer along.’
In the final, fifth trial, he planned to use the necromancer to get the second sub-quest reward.
‘Not just for me, but for all my party members.’
Of course, the necromancer was excluded from the party members.
‘Now, shall I open it?’
Ryu Min immediately manipulated the system to use the Rune Package.
[You have used the Rune Package.]
[Congratulations! You have obtained the ‘Rune of Reputation’!]
[The acquired rune will be automatically engraved on the player’s body!]
[Rune of Reputation]
– Effect: Your reputation in the other world increases by one level. There is no neutral stance, and you will receive favorable treatment wherever you go.
Ryu Min didn’t know what kind of rune would come out of the package.
He wasn’t sure if the result was decided at the moment of obtaining the item, but a new rune appeared every time.
‘So I didn’t expect much…’
But it turned out to be a rather good rune.
‘My reputation in the other world will increase by one level.’
This means that neutral turns to friendly, and friendly turns to very friendly.
Sure enough, as he obtained the rune, his reputation changed.
[The reputation of humans towards the Last Time Traveler has risen from ‘Mortal Enemy’ to ‘Hostile’.]
[The reputation of demons towards the Black Scythe has risen from ‘Friendly’ to ‘Very Friendly’.]
[The reputation of humans towards the Black Scythe has risen from ‘Friendly’ to ‘Very Friendly’.]
[The reputation of elves towards the Black Scythe has risen from ‘Very Friendly’ to ‘Eternal Ally’.]
[The reputation of dwarves towards the Trailblazer has risen from ‘Friendly’ to ‘Very Friendly’.]
………………
…………
…………
All reputations rose by one level.
Not only for the Black Scythe but also for all the titles he possessed.
‘With the exception of the Last Time Traveler, I can receive friendly treatment from all races.’
All neutral reputations turned friendly, and the ones that were already good got even better.
Especially with demons, dwarves, and elves.
Ryu Min’s lips naturally curved upwards as there was much to gain from them.
‘This will significantly reduce the time needed.’
There was no longer a need to painstakingly work on reputation, making it easier to obtain what he wanted.
‘It’s as if I got through the 13th round for free.’
Originally, in the 13th round, he planned only to seek out the elves, but now he would also stop by the dwarves.
Having finished his business, Ryu Min glanced at his waiting companions and nodded his head.
“Let’s move out.”
Thanks to Ryu Min, the party arrived smoothly at the location of the final trial.
“Is this the place?”
Before them lay a path shrouded in darkness, seemingly bottomless.
They couldn’t see what lay beyond the path, making it impossible to step forward. Just then, a message appeared.
– Within one hour, all party members must pass through the traps and reach the end of the passage.
– Success ▶ Registered as a survival team and evaluated for experience points.
– Failure ▶ Total annihilation.
‘Total annihilation upon failure?’
Leaving behind a bewildered John, the explanation messages continued to appear.
[In front of you is a passage shrouded in darkness that no light can illuminate.]
[Traps are scattered throughout the darkness, and touching a trap will immediately annihilate the target.]
[However, once a trap is triggered and annihilates a target, the trap will be removed and will not regenerate.]
[If all party members safely reach the end of the passage within the time limit, the trial will end.]
[Conversely, if you fail to reach the end of the passage within the time limit, it will be considered a failure.]
[All skills except for summoning are prohibited here.]
[Due to limited visibility, rely on each other’s backs and proceed calmly.]
As it was the final trial, failure meant the complete annihilation of all party members.
Moreover, just touching a trap would result in immediate annihilation.
The trial was nerve-wracking just by hearing the explanation, but for some reason, John was grinning.
It was because he had already figured out the strategy.
‘So to get through this dark passage, we need to clear the traps? So I can just use my summoned creatures?’
Knowing that his role was crucial, John’s expression subtly changed.
His lips curled into a sneaky smile.
“This looks like a trial that’s impossible without a summoner, doesn’t it?”
“It seems so. What should we do?”
“You guys should consider yourselves lucky.”
“Huh? What do you mean…?”
In response to Min Juri’s question, John arrogantly lifted his chin.
“Because I’m a summoner.”
His tone and expression had already changed.
And for good reason.
From this moment on, he could call himself the boss.
Thus, he mustered the courage to speak rudely to the Black Scythe.
“Hey, Black Scythe.”
