Volume 1 - Chapter 7 (1/2)

This is a dungeon that can only be entered by low level adventurers

And it is necessary to have the level reset to open the door

Even if the room was found, it would be impossible to enter the room

High level adventurers couldn’t enter the dungeon in the first place

It is obvious that the person who found this room wasn’t normal. Just how did he discover all this different rooms. For your information, the guy who discovered this room was the same as the level reset room

After entering the room, I realised the room looks exactly the same as the level reset room

It was a stone room illuminated by light crystals.

There was a fountain in the center of the room and a statue of a goddess at the back.

No way, there won’t be another one here, will it?

[Youya, why are you trembling?] (Luna)

[Don’t worry about it, I’m fine. I am just looking for something like a monster around.] (Youya)

[It’s okay! Luna’s doesn’t sense any monster near us!] (Luna)

Luna bangs her chest proudly as she announced that.

I made a bitter smile as I looked at luna

She doesn’t realise that I was wary of another Luna trapped in a crystal.

Although Luna is easy to take care of, if there were two of her I would be in serious trouble.

Now then, time to begin the ritual.

Looking at the layout, it seems that the lore behind the hidden rooms is that the same goddess made the hidden rooms.

The activation for the ritual is the same.

I removed one light crystal from the wall and placed it in the necklace of the goddess statue.

The goddess statue started to illuminate with a soft glow, and a voice started appearing in my head.

It was the same voice back in the level reset room.

[Those who have fought countless battles and encountered obstacles one after another. Congratulations on finding me. I praise your relentless determination adventurer. I will grant you a special power as a means to push the darkness back with this power.] (Goddess)

Similar to back then, the glow from the necklace enveloped my body.

My body felt warm and light, it was like I was reeling in power.

I can feel that I have definitely gotten the blessings of the goddess.

Shortly after, the light disappeared.

Finally, it is over.

My cursed status will never come back. My status increase every level will be three points from this point forward.

I’ve been struggling so much thanks to my bad luck, only gaining one point per level. That meant that I had to put in so much more effort just to keep up with everyone else’s growth.

Eventually, I encountered an unbreakable limit.

However, with effort I still managed to overcome it and continued to follow everyone’s path of becoming stronger, eventually obtaining the power to open the door. But this wasn’t the end. I still encountered another obstacle that I couldn’t overcome. I couldn’t swallow the fact that I would never be rewarded for my hard work. I couldn’t accept that and chose to run away.

However, it’s different now.

As long as you put in the hard work, you will be rewarded.

[Youya, why are you crying?] (Luna)

[Sorry, I showed you an unsightly side. I couldn’t help it, I have finally been freed from my curse.] (Youya)

My status was cursed. I couldn’t count how much bitterness I had to swallow thanks to it.

[Youya, sit down.] (Luna)

Luna started walking towards me. I didn’t understand so I just listened to her and sat down.

Then Luna hugged me.

[Good boy Good boy~.] (Luna)

[Uhh.. Luna-san, what are you doing?] (Youya)

[Somehow, I felt like whenever I was sad, I would like someone to do this to me.] (Luna)

[Although you lost your memories, you do say weird things you know.] (Youya)

[Youya, why were you sad?] (Luna)

[I’m not sad anymore thanks to Luna. Thank you.] (Youya)

[I’m relieved. If you are ever sad again, Luna will be there to comfort you! Good boy~ Good boy~.] (Luna)

This child.. I am glad to be in the same party as her.

[Luna, why don’t you try the same thing I did?] (Youya)

Although I feel like it wouldn’t succeed since she didn’t reset her level, we could still try it. In the slight chance that it does succeed, Luna’s combat strength will increase drastically.
