“Huff” “Huff” “Huff”
“Hey, pull the cart faster!”
Half a month after Chrono joins the party, they advance steadily to the B85th floor. Everything went smoothly with Salvanor's impressive leadership and the party members' great chemistry.
Along the way, Chrono further heightened his merchant trades with his masters' guidance. Admittedly he was annoyed at them, but as things went on, he could get along with them just fine and all five of them accepted Chrono as their student.
All of the five masters were eccentric in their way but Chrono was impressed with their knowledge and skills whilst the five masters enjoyed teaching their fast learning student.
“Incoming, enemies ahead!”
“Stay in the formation and protect supports at all costs!”
As they went deeper into the dungeon, naturally the party encountered stronger monsters with more organized attacks. Even with great leadership and chemistry, the party can’t do anything with their decreasing numbers.
It was mainly because dying party members would spawn back at the town and can’t go back to where the party was. This particular mechanic was the main reason conquering the dungeon needed a well-made plan.
To a dungeon conquering party, the support group was the most important unit mainly because they hold their entire party loots and only merchant class could scroll out of the dungeon with their wagon.
In the whole half month with the party, Chrono didn’t lift a finger fighting monsters. He gave up to convince them he could fight, so he just did his best doing his support role while grinding his merchant skill.
……….
Trrting!

Another month went by, the party wiping every floor’s monsters and boss monsters. With the party bonus, masters and student bonus, endless merchant skill grinding plus a few extraordinary achievements, Chrono level, and stats progress increases by leap and bound. It was much faster then when he grind alone.
They were finally in the B100th floor. Their numbers were reduced to a quarter and it was the final fight against King Behemoth. The battle itself wasn't easy; many died and the frontline almost wiped out.
“Hyaargh!”
When they almost tasted defeated, Salvanor managed to deal the finishing blow. Including Salvanor, only three frontlines managed to survive.
*huff* *huf*
“I guess that was it”
He was out of breath, but he couldn't stop smiling as he felt a sense of achievement slaying the final floor boss.
The other frontline, Sasu, on his knees as his stamina ran out after the battle. He and Clara spoke with each other as they were excited about the battle.
“Man that was the hardest battle I fought”
“Yeah, me too.”
“This is the first time I conquer a dungeon too.”
“ Maybe Salvanor got the notification to become dungeon master now?”
“ Yeah, I think.”
While the two busy chatting with each other, Chrono and his masters were busy looting the final room.
Hansoo says,
“These things only expensive, nothing special at all”
Renji says,
“ If anything, this curse spear is quite something.”
Wu Lei looked at the spear and inspected it.
What a trash, good durability, good attack but…
Before Wu Lei could finish his word, Albert said.
“It drains the user-health one thousand every second what the hell”
Without commenting further, only one word came out from Sven's mouth.
“Trash”
……
“Hmm… I still didn’t receive a notification to become this dungeon master. No matter, it doesn’t have much benefit anyway. I will just scroll back now, I’m too tired and want to sleep already.”
After his remark, Slavanor used his scroll and left the dungeon followed by Sasu and Clara as they were tired too from the long battle.
“ I finished putting the loots in my wagon, I guess I will be going too.”
Wu Lei remarked as he uses his scroll and left with his wagon.
“Me too, bye all.”
Hansoo also left.
“Eh, wait up. Don’t leave me”
Realizing everyone starts leaving, Chrono is in a cold sweat.
“You are slow as a snail, we are leaving.”
After saying that, Albert left. Sven and Renji followed. Leaving Chrono alone.
Dumbfounded by the situation, his eyes bulged out. His mouth wide open, he unconsciously kneeled as his knees losing all its strength. As he was left all alone, Chrono muttered quietly.
“Guys… I don't have return scroll….”
As a chaotic user, Chrono can’t spawn in town simply just dying. Instead, he will spawn at the nearest safe spot in the dungeon current floor….
