Alec took a deep breath when he looked at the words, 'Growth type weapon'.
The sword was amazing!
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIt was a weapon that can be bonded with the owner. Even if in the future it was lost, Alec can just find its location through the connection.
Alos, the sword will simply grow together with Alec. Now he didn't have to care about his weapon breaking or acquiring a new weapon anymore.
While Alec was holding the sword, the old man looked at him with surprise.
"Kid, are you sure you want to take this sword? The sword is old, even I don't know its origin. Also, there are a lot of more powerful weapons present around you."
Alec looked at the old man and hurriedly hugged the sword.
"No, I like this one."
After a long time, he finally completed a mission. There was no way he was going to let go of the sword!
The old man shrugged his shoulders and looked at Jian who choose an (+SS)-Rank wand. Jian was a mage so he didn't care about the sword Alec was holding.
After both of them had chosen their reward the old man gestured them to leave the floor.
Alec and Jian looked at each other. They were the only ones advancing to the next floor.
After nodding toward each other both of them step inside the golden portal present behind the old man and disappeared from the floor.
On the other hand, the old man looked at Bia who was staring at a round fist-sized fire orb.
"Little one, the orb you are staring at belonged to an (+SS)-Rank fire monster. Do you want to take it?"
The old man's voice was warm. From the start to the end he never once spoke angrily. Bia looked at the old man and after pondering for a while she nodded her head.
The orb started floating and appeared in front of Bia.
She decided to absorb the fire orb because It will be definitely beneficial to her as she was a fire phoenix.
"Now, I will send you back where your friend is."
The old man smiled and a small white portal appeared in front of Bia.
Bia nodded her tiny head and entered the portal, leaving behind the old man who was alone again.
"Sigh. Now It will take a long time before anyone else appeared on my floor."
...
Meanwhile, After Kyle disappeared from the stairway he appeared inside a white room filled with treasures.
Kyle was startled suddenly appearing inside a place he had never seen before but then a familiar old voice resounded inside the room.
"You can choose any one of the treasures present inside this room."
After hearing the voice, Kyle heaved a sigh of relief and started looking around the room.
The voice said he can only pick one, also he was sure like last time he won't be able to take more than one even if he wanted to.
While Kyle was looking around, he heard Bia worried voice inside his head.
-'Kyle? Kyle?'
He chuckled when he heard her panicked voice before telling her that he was fine.
Kyle was worried about the time when Bia potential would be known in the outside world but he threw the thought at the back of his mind.
Right now, no one knew who he was, after leaving the Tower he will just simply hide his identity!
After a few minutes, Kyle finally saw what he was looking for and his eyes lit up.
Among the hundreds of treasures piled around the white room, he saw a transparent box filled with colorless flowers.
After looking at the flowers for a while and confirming it was really the 'Elixer of life' Kyle immediately picked the transparent box.
He didn't even glance at the different (+S)-Rank artifacts and skill core present around him.
Kyle looked at the box that was filled with nine-leaves flowers. He felt happy. Now his brothers can be saved!
The main reason why he entered the Tower was finally complete.
He carefully placed the box inside the storage ring he was wearing before seeing a strange door at the end of the room.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmKyle approached the door and after glancing back at the white room one more time, he entered the door and his vision turned dark.
After a few seconds, he was finally able to see something.
The new scenery around him was familiar. A large forest filled with huge spiky trees.
"Sigh, I am again on the first floor."
Kyle sighed. He was a little disappointed because he wasn't able to advance to the next floor. Then suddenly an evil smile appeared on his lips.
"Hehe, The old man will probably regret sending me here because I am going to sweep this floor clean!"
He immediately took out the old map from his storage ring and looked at it with twinkling eyes.
There were still two months before the Tower closed again, so he wanted to make the most out of the remaining time.
Kyle didn't even notice how the four months passed in a blink of an eye. After the reaming two months passed, everyone would be probably thrown out of the Tower.
Suddenly out of thin air, a small white portal appeared in front of Kyle and Bia flew out from the portal with a fire orb.
"Bia."
Kyle shouted with excitement while opening his arms wide to hug Bia.
He actually wanted to shout, 'You are finally here. My dear (+SSS)-Rank birdy' but controlled himself.
Bia looked at Kyle and immediately flew toward him before stopping in front of him.
-'I am going to absorb the fire core. I will probably break through to the next rank. So guard my surroundings.'
After ordering Kyle who still had his arm wide open, she turned around and sat on top of a nearby tree to absorb the fire core.
"What the! At least give me a huge. You know I missed you a lot."
Bia looked at Kyle with narrowed eyes. Didn't we just saw each other a while ago? Why are you suddenly missing me?
-'Why are you behaving so strangely?'
"Sigh."
Another sigh escaped Kyle's lips as he turn around to guard their surrounding.
It was going to be very hard to make Bia his exclusive (+SSS)-Rank warrior considering their 'awful' history!
