Chapter 124: Chapter 123: India? Part III (2/2)
[The Giant Silver Slime is immune to your physical and magic skill damage.
The effects of Mana Conversion Level 2 do not work against Giant Silver Slimes.
The effects of Warrior's Brave Spirit Level 1 do not work against Giant Silver Slimes.]
A different message appeared when I engaged the Silver Slime but this was much better for me. My entire fight style revolved around using powerful normal attacks. Most of my skills served to boost my normal attacks, anyway.
I slashed at the Silver Slime as it wriggled towards me. I actually managed to deal with it faster than I did with the Golden Slime.
”And then there was one.” I turned to an Ash Slime and attacked. My spear slashed through it as easily as it did with the Golden Slime.
”Gwek!”
”Can't you guys make another sound?”
[The Giant Ash Slime is immune to all magic skill damage.
Only the 30% ATT damage boost of the Level 2 Mana Conversion skill works against the Giant Ash Slimes. All other effects do not work.]
Warrior's Brave Spirit worked as it wasn't a magic-class skill. ”The 30% ATT boost is more than enough!”
The Ash Slime was even easier to deal with than the Silver Slime. I was able to clear up the rest of them fairly quickly.
[You have eliminated a Golden Slime, a Silver Slime and an Ash Slime in order.
Congratulations! You will receive 7x the EXP earned.]
[You have gained a level.]
”Huh?” The reward wasn't normal, either. My jaw dropped at how much EXP I just earned. ”Awesome!” I was worried that I wouldn't get that much EXP since the Slimes and the hunting method were pretty easy to deal with.
”If it's like this, then I'm going to stay here for all two months!”
I turned to the other slimes and I quickly cleaned them up in order.
[You have eliminated a Golden Slime, a Silver Slime and an Ash Slime in order.
Congratulations! You will receive 1 extra stat point.]
”What is this?” I had expected more EXP but I didn't expect this good of a reward this time.
”This is one strange dungeon…” I said to myself before I pushed the thoughts away for later and rushed in at the Slimes. If I was going to get the most out of the next two months, I needed to move quickly.
[You have eliminated a Golden Slime, a Silver Slime and an Ash Slime in order.
Congratulations! You will receive 1 extra stat point.]
[Congratulations! You will receive 4x the EXP earned.]

[Congratulations! You will receive 12x the golden rings earned.]
[Congratulations! You have received a Giant Slime Nucleus.]
The rewards I would get after I would clear the dungeon of Slimes were completely random. ”Gah! I don't need golden rings; give me stat points!” I shouted at the message that came up when I killed the last Ash Slime but I quickly turned around and headed for a Golden Slime.
”Gwek!”

While Lee Jiwon was busy training in the Oosara Fall's hidden dungeon, the three top guilds of India were meeting at a hotel in New Delhi. These guilds were the guilds that represented the top three castes of India.
The Sahtashwi Guild represented the Brahmins, highest caste. (Priests and scholars)
The Behi-Kinant Guild represented the Kshatriyas, the second highest caste. (Politicians, generals, etc)
The Lavi Guild represented the Vaishyas, the caste of the average and middle-class people. (Merchants, famers, artisans)
There was once a guild made up of the Shudra caste and that guild had grown quite large, with the intent to completely overturn the caste system and create an equal society. However, the Sunil Guild was quickly shut down by the three upper guilds through relentless harassing attacks, especially from the Sahtashwi and the Behi-Kinant Guilds.
People, in general, were the same. No matter how strong the person, lifting a one-ton boulder was impossible for anyone. As a result, people were divided by a person's intellect, wisdom, and other invisible traits. But, what would happen if the lower masses had the equal opportunity to learn and better themselves? They would be on equal grounds with the upper classes. That was why the castes were established; to form a solid hierarchy that would not jeopardize the standings of the upper classes.
As the world became more modern, the caste system had lost its justification as more and more people became educated, and there had been a few places that stopped doing it altogether. However, that changed when the world changed. There were now people who could form fireballs in their hands and throw lightning from their fingertips. The top two castes had capitalized on this and drawn the line clearly once more and brought themselves even higher, closer to the gods.
Regardless of their past, the reason the three guilds had gathered here was simple: to discuss what to do with the random skill, Descendant of the God of Destruction, granted to a deva 'untouchable', and to kill the deva known as the Descendant of Shiva; to kill a god!
