Mark completed the 22nd floor early in the afternoon so he called everyone and showed them the most recent items that he acquired. He gave the storage rings to those who didn’t have one so basically everyone had storage items already.
He reminded everyone to keep their storage items with them at all times and to make sure that all their dungeon items were inside so they could wear them in case of emergency. Mark told everyone that his next goal was for everyone to have accessories that gave them stats and or skills that could be life-saving that they could wear at all times.
The amulet of strength was given to Sam and Mark advised him to wear it at all times. When Sam wore it, he said that he felt that he was as strong as Spiderman. Combined with all of his dungeon items, Mark knew that his friend’s strength now was nothing to laugh at. Unfortunately, they really didn’t know how to measure their strength.
Sam asked everyone to come with him to the woods to check out his strength. When everybody arrived at the woods located at the back of their house, Sam punched a tree, and it produced a deep hole in the tree. Everyone clapped their hands and said Sam could now wear tights and run around saving everyone.
They went back to the house and Mark asked anyone if anybody was interested in the legendary purple sword. Sam said he was really interested but he liked the Cleave skill. Mark just gave the sword to him anyway and told Sam that he could keep it in his storage item and use it whenever it was necessary.
The Earrings of Truth was kept by Mark since it didn’t provide much stats anyway and would only be taken out if needed.
Mark was satisfied with the knowledge that all his friends had accessories that provided them with storage and stats. It basically meant that they could be ready for any physical altercation.
The group then planned their visit to Japan since Mark’s next healing session was the next day so that meant they would have two weeks until the next one. The rest of his friends decided to handle all the paperwork the next day as well so they could depart as soon as possible. Mark called Agent Harper to inform her of their next vacation plan, but the agent said they could talk about it tomorrow during the healing session.
The next day arrived, and Mark went to the location where they held the healing sessions to cast his Dryad Circle spell again. After the session, the doctors asked Mark if he could demonstrate some of his skills, so he did in a laboratory, he showed everyone his Telekinesis skill. Everyone was surprised at how strong it was since he could lift several people at once. The doctors decided to measure the strength of his Telekinesis and so far, Mark was able to lift a ton for 10 minutes. Of course, Mark held back a bit to not scare the government officials since what he had shown so far was already terrifying.

Mark knew that the government already had an inkling of what his capabilities were since he was able to lift his friends to fly away from the plane that exploded and shield them from the explosion’s backlash. Of course, he really didn’t do that since his friends were actually safe inside the 21st floor.
While they were doing some tests, Mark received a call from Sam saying that he couldn’t access the portal since the group would like to go to the 21st floor for a bit of a swim. He forgot to authorize Sam so he did it on the system interface and mentioned that Sam should be able to access the portal now but told Sam that he needed to wait for a bit since he would need to anchor the portal again to the studio.
A few more tests were conducted and after that, Mark received confirmation from Agent Harper that they would allow him and his friends to go to Japan as long as he would allow government agents to follow him which Mark agreed as long as the agents were discreet and would not interfere with their vacation.
Mark went home to rest but remembered that nobody would be there since everyone went to the studio to go inside the dungeon to the 21st floor so he went to the studio to anchor the dungeon portal then he decided to join his friends for some fun in the oasis. When Mark, together with his friends arrived home, he decided to just do some online shopping to pass the time.
His friends told Mark that they were successful in booking a hotel reservation and first-class flight to Tokyo the day after tomorrow. His friends decided to test his Comprehend Language spell, so he cast it to each one of them one by one and then they decided to watch an anime movie by Hayao Miyazaki without subtitles. Everyone enjoyed watching the movie since they perfectly understood the Japanese anime without resorting to subtitles. Enleed mentioned that it sounded like the characters were speaking using his native tongue.
Everyone was really impressed with the spell, so they decided to watch another foreign language film.
After watching a French Film, the group decided to waste the rest of the evening by playing online games. While they were doing so, Mark asked Sam about the status of the downloaded content so far, and Sam reported that there were a lot of animes, movies, music, completed web novels, and manga that had already been downloaded. A lot of games were also downloaded but it was a bit trickier since they needed to make sure that the games would be playable without the internet.
Mark was happy with the report so he asked Sam to bring the stuff to him the next day so he could have copies in his inventory. Sam then asked Mark why he needed those. Mark told him that he would honestly tell not only him but the others as well the reason after about eight months, so they just needed to wait for that day.
The group then talked about their finances, and everyone was up to date on their personal finances since money had been their personal worries for such a long time and they only achieved financial freedom recently. They were really thankful to Robert and Donald for giving them a lot of money courtesy of the dungeon items they were purchasing. The government also paid a lot of money to Mark, so they didn’t have any issues money-wise.
