At the moment At the Royal Capital of Nivava Chaos could be seen as many nobles asked to petition about the coronation and things like Bloom not being the biological daughter of the king, but after a single meeting with the queen all of them shut their mouths and joined her side.

The archmage and his protege, prince Dridinal were simply going mad, not understanding how the queen could persuade those stubborn people.

"Have you discovered their secret?"

Prince Dridinal asked a noble whom was loyal to him, he had infiltrated the protestant nobles to spy on the big secret, but his face at the moment was rather grim, he didn't even want to tell the secret lest it made the sickly(poisoned) ex-prince fall and die on the spot.

"Spit it out already, what is so special that could make even you my most loyal supporter grow pale, I refuse to believe that there can be a plot that cannot be counterploted against"

Dridinal said holding a golden wine cup with a silver bottom.

"Your excellency, I plead you to try and reconcile with the Queen, a mortal cannot plot against the gods"

The trembling nobleman fell to his knees, he was really afraid of revealing this secret, he would be cursed or die before revealing such a state secret, he would prefer to die a hundred deaths before he revealed it.

"Let him go"

The archmage said as he entered the room, the noble greeted the archmage and after a second advice he left in a hurry.

"I have discovered their secret, but you won't like it at all, their ace in the hand is simply too powerful, even the High elves have been moved by this secret, offering to gift the little girl eternal life in exchange for her hand in marriage"

The archmage said, making Dridinal even more suspicious on what this secret could be.

"The little girl whom you all called a bastard is a legendary class"

The archmage said, but these words echoed in Dridinal's head like thunder, if it was true, then he was doomed to fail from the start, there was no doubt why the Runia acted to help her. A legendary human hasn't appeared for ages, the last time one appeared it was the establishment of the Runia country, their first Mage Emperor.

"If that was all it would be fine, but this little girl is even more dangerous than you imagine, what class do you think the one you used to call a bastard has?"

The archmage asked him, not caring anymore about his situation, since even if he died he had already freed his and his own family, meaning that they could still make a living with their current capital.

"Is it one of those rare classes?"

Dridinal asked not being able to guess, after all there are hundreds of classes among which there were some classes that were so rare they became legends.

"I'm disappointed, I thought that since you are smart you would understand which class could move even the elven royalty"

The archmage said while disappointed, in truth there was only one class that could move royalty.

"It can't be that little girl cannot be a noble, I don't believe you, that bastard cannot be a noble!"

Dridinal whom had seemingly lost some weight shouted in disbelief, the only combination that could not be dethroned even if they wanted to try was a high level noble.

Now let me explain again what a legendary class is, if the average commoner is level 100, the talented ones 200, the heroic average is 1000, but the legendary is 10000, even now little bloom's level was beyond 200 and she was just a child, you can imagine to what heights she will grow since she is a noble, simply being on the throne will give her enough experience to become one of the most respectful and powerful rulers in history.

Dridinal wanted to laugh at himself, but what came were tears of blood, in his final moments he wrote a letter and asked the archmage to deliver it to the Queen, he also wrote letters for his other simblings, his wives and offsprings and lastly he wrote a letter to the Archbishop and his remaining brother.

At that moment one after another groups of Heroes arrived at their destinations all around the world of Axis.

Of course most of them discovered the magical experience of Evolution.

Once night fell they entered the dark place and could select whatever they wanted from ten options that made a race what it was, choosing all ten would turn them into a different race thus they were warned not to do so, but some whom had decided to stay didn't care, of course it wasn't as if they couldn't simply turn themselves human again.

The thing however they enjoyed most was the facial modification, height, weight and other things.

When they woke up all of them were top models or at least their own dream appearance.

At the moment Christopher was looking through the Adventurer guild's applications, he didn't understand much about the language of the dwarves, but the numbers were numbers in every language.

He found four groups with five people and two pairs of threes and twos.

"Do you by any way know where I could buy common skills"

Christopher asked the clerk, a female dwarf whom was jiggling most of the time.

"Oh you can register to the guild to gain some, or you could head to the local stores, but I wouldn't recomend going there it's pretty expensive"

She said awaiting for an application from him, but it never came making her rather surprised. From the start she thought that he was there to apply in order to escape becoming a miner, it was rather funny how many adventurers ended up as miners due to their own foolishness.

"Where's the closest store?"

Christopher asked her and she simply directed him to the closest one.

The store was rather shady, it only had ten skillbooks and of them all but one were common, while the one was uncommon or so the owner said.

Of course Christopher didn't care about the uncommon Dodge roll skill.

Seeing as there was nothing of interest in this store, he went to the next store, here he saw two uncommon skills, one being the Eagle eye and the other the Potion making, of course eagle wouldn't be so bad to fight off his bad vision, but he still decided against it, after all it's not like he was an archer or anything, what he did however see were the common skills "magic calculation" and "memorization", skill that helped with magic, a pity that of the two he only decided on magic calculation which cost a pitiful 100dp, well for him they were pitiful, but for others they were a life's savings.

He went around skill stores, but all he could find was a rare skill worth 1000dp, but he didn't know if it was useful at all, called "rune magic art", as for other abilities he wanted to select the "Alert" skill, but was said that only rogues and scouts could learn it, thus he gave up on it.

"Pst, you do you want to see real good skills, then you should go to the Back alley market, there you can find whatever your life desires"

The man said wanting to guide him, but Christopher was the last person whom would trust another person's words without confirmation.

"I swear on the Runic heart, that the market is a great place"

The man said desperately, truth however was that he was not a dwarf at all, this person was a gnome.

Gnomes are smaller than dwarves and lack the dwarven strength and toughness, what they do however have is silent steps, in truth Christopher hadn't even seen him before he had called to him.

"Why should I follow you if you want something, come and find me at the Inn, but don't be slow because I'm leaving town soon"

Christopher said as he headed towards the Inn, inside he could hear Vadima and Kurlidandr arguing about something.

"Have you eaten yet?"

Christopher asked.

"See I told you we should have ordered before he arrived"

Vadima said not really caring since she wasn't paying.

"Kurlidandr, what do you know about some back alley market?"

Christopher asked somewhat suspicious about the matter.

"Well typicaly speaking they are people whom have fallen into dire straits and want to sell their possessions for more than what the Dwarven bank will give them, making even one dp more is enough to make them crazy, thus I wouldn't recomend going there"

The dwarf said with a rather serious expression, altough he could feel a somewhat sympathetic aura from the dwarf.

"Well we might have visitors from them, thus I expect you both to share your wisdom with me"

He said and before long the whole Inn begun filling up with people, they only ordered some ale and at times approached the people eating, showing some of their most expensive wares.

Kurlidandr would then identify the item and say if the price was decent or not worth speaking about.

The people whom approached were of many different races, the most however Christopher could do for them was pay for their drinks, which cost him 100dp in total.

Most of those people were looking for a sucker but didn't find one, although the Innkeeper was more than happy for the clients.

It was amongst the last few persons that the gnome came, he was holding a book called steal, it wasn't a rare exactly book, but it was registered as uncommon, it's original price was estimated at 1000dp by the dwarf, but it only had one charge left, thus the gnome wouldn't be able to sell it for more than 100dp to the dwarves, and he asked 500dp for it.

Of course the first thing Christopher thought was whether a mage could learn the skill, but was directly shouted upon by Vadima, it was not only pointless to learn it, it was even a crime to steal and monsters had no pockets to begin with, meaning that you could only use it on humans and humanoids.

"but could I learn it?"

Christopher asked again.

"Well it has no requirements for class, but it does require a mentality of 50, meaning that unless you reach a high enough level it's probably impossible"

Kurlidandr said, making the gnome's face rather disapointed.

"Then I should take it, although I would also like a crafting skill or something, as well, but that's probably only wishfull thinking"

Christopher said, but the next moment the gnome took out of his pocket another skillbook called "Dark pocket".

"Put that back where you took it from or even better burn it"

The dwarf suddenly said completely shaken from the appearance of the book.

"What was that skill?"

Christopher asked out of curiosity.

"One of the dwarven taboos, or probably a taboo of Axis, necromancy, dark pocket, death and soul grasp skills are considered taboos since they create undead beings"

Kurlidandr explained.

"Do you have anything else or should we conclude our trade first?"

Christopher asked the gnome.

"There is another item, but you wouldn't have enough to buy it"

The gnome said as he brough out a ring.

"Stolen right?"

The dwarf asked, not believing that the ring belonged to the gnome.

"It belonged to someone whom died in the mine recently, the people before also tried selling his belongings"

The gnome answered.

"Since we cannot trust you we will have to find out through the Patriach do you dare come with us for confirmation?"

The dwarf asked the gnome, if he did then they had just found themselves a real bargain.

"Why wouldn't I dare?"

The gnome said and they headed towards the bank, the two remaining people also followed behind them.

"It will take one day to see if it was stolen, but seeing as you haven't left the mines for years, the possibility is low"

The patriarch said looking at the ring in his hands.

"What's that ring?"

This content has been misappropriated from Royal Road; report any instances of this story if found elsewhere.

Christopher asked Kurlidandr

"It has a rather rare enchantment called treasure hunter, it's like giving the person wearing it another skill, the person will be able to detect precious stones and ore without even seeing it"

The dwarf said but then sighed.

"A pity that we don't have a use for it at the moment"

"Well I could use it, but I cannot guarantee if the thing detected belongs to someone or not"

Christopher stated, making the dwarf somewhat sceptical for a moment, what he knew about the young man was that he was a rather unbalanced mage, meaning that he was an allrounder.

"I can give you 1200dp for the ring"

The patriach proposed, no longer caring if it was stolen or not.

"I'm selling it for 3000 and not a point less"

The gnome stated his ultimatum, in truth those were the points he needed to get out of this place.

"You are crazy, don't let your greed overshadow your logic, this ring at most can catch 2000dp, whom do you think is stupid enough to spend 3000dp for a miner's accesory, it's meant to be used to find ore, it's not my fault that you were so lazy that you couldn't get to the ore"

The Patriarch stated.

"Whom are you kidding the whole mine is empty other than some silver there is no valuable ores there, at most we can earn 30dp in a day and that's when we have hit a vein, do you really think that I would have decided to sell the ring otherwise?"

The gnome's words made the Patriach's will to buy the ring fall to the ground, if what the gnome had told him was true, then it was pointless to even try and buy the ring, since the patriarch couldn't simply leave his domain, this small mine that included no more than 120 people in total, half of whom are people whom had a debt to repay.

"I'm buying your ring, but only under the premises that it's not a stolen good, also I would like to ask the Patriach whether it's illegal to mine on my own or not"

Christopher asked, but the patriarch simply sighed and threw the ring to him.

"This is the first time I see this ring, it's not of dwarven craftmanship, you can keep it for today, go mine to your heart's content, tomorrow If you still want the ring and if it is not a stolen good your exchange will be completed"

The patriarch said and concluded the matter.

The gnome was rather happy and didn't care that the ring was already in Christopher's hands.

"Now lets go to the mine, well after we see what the last two people came to offer after all they have been waiting for some time now"

Christopher said.

Disappointingly the two last people had nothing to offer, one human girl even offered herself to him, but he had to decline, I won't say politely because there's no way to say it was done politely when the other person runs off crying.

"Well here go my plans"

Kurlidandr said as he looked at the ring on Christopher's hand.

"There are treasures all around us, this ring is rather interesting, a pity that the treasures I feel are inside the stores"

Christopher said and then went on towards the direction of the mines, at the entrance they were offered a cart for 10dp, which they politely accepted.

"Now if I fill the cart with silver, how much dp do you think that would be?"

Christopher asked the dwarf next to him.

"Well the cart can at most fit 2000kg, so it should be around 2000dp more or less"

The dwarf answered somewhat puzzled with te question, he then saw Christopher groping air in front of him, but couldn't see anything happening, of course he himself wasn't a mage, he was an Alchemist, so magic was not his field of expertize.

"Wow, There's so much silver that even if I do this for days It won't run out"

Christopher said as he turned around, but the moment Kurlidandr turned around he froze in place, what he saw was that their cart was full of silver ore, they had only stayed for half an hour's worth and they had already made around 2000dp worth of silver.

The evaluation of their ore however blew Kurlidandr's mind out, it was pure silver, there wasn't even a hint of impurity inside, meaning that the whole cart earned them 8000dp, three times more than he had calculated.

If the Patriarch had seen this he would be as speachless as Kurlidandr right now.

"Master would you be maybe interested in item synthesis, I know that it's the field of enchanters, but with your ability it would be a waste not being able to craft stuff with the ore you mine"

The dwarf begun calling him master again, something that wasn't of course to his liking.

"Lets go buy some muscle first, after all we now have more than enough points for that"

Christopher said, originaly they were supposed to recruit escorts and leave.

"Wait master before we leave could you please do that a few more times, I really want to buy something back, but it's priced at 50000dp, it's practicaly impossible for me to reclaim if we leave this mine"

Kurlidandr pleaded, but Vadima whom was next to him had a grim expression, she of course hadn't thought that Christopher could make money like farting.

The one whom however was shocked was the Patriarch, he had believed the gnomes words and gave up on the ring, but seeing so much silver beeing unearthened a full cart every half an hour he went mad with greed.

"The ring is stolen"

That was his final edict, but he would let them enjoy it for a little before spoiling their fun.

In the end and exhausted Christopher had made 56 thousands in three and a half hours, with slight rests in between of course.

If he wasn't tired from the day and if it wasn't for believing the gnome's words that the ring wasn't stolen, then he would have probably stayed for longer, but at the moment he didn't really mind taking a good well deserved nap.

-----------------------------

On the floor where sun never rose, the heroes from Nivava had long arived at their designated posts.

Anna, whom is one of Alexxa's friends, was no accompanied by Joseph, a blond half elf and Ludicar's brother.

Although he wasn't as handsome as his brother he was better than average, the important however matter was his special ability "Management", which allowed him to discern better with which turn things should be done, what categorizations were better suited and other trivial matters in the eyes of common people, of course he was also an adept horse ride and archer, but those traits of his paled in front of his management ability, he was simply born to become a secretary for someone else a boureocrat whom was good at holding records and papers.

Anna was of average height, her long blond hair added to her natural beauty, but she had a rather quick to irritate temper.

Her class was that of a mage, but her power was creating shield talismans, they might be weak at the moment, but she was still only level two thus she didn't mind it too much.

Her Power was not like regular magic spells, as long as she had paper or cloth, even a small blade of grass, she could create a talisman out of it.

Of course the quality of the talisman varied on the material used and the power depended on her own magicality stat which was only 14.7 , which was a lot higher than it used to be before.

Of course the first thing to do when she arrived to her own village was let Joseph manage and organize the village as well as explain to her how it all works.

She only had 80 people in the village, half of whom were adventurers whom wouldn't stay for long, meaning that only 40 of them were hers to command.

"Of our 40 subjects, 10 are women and the other 10 are elderly, leaving only 20 ablebodied males, my opinion is that we should set a training camp to observe their talents before deciding on whom we will become the defensive troops and whom the hunters, the defensive troops will be trained to defend through the usage of baricades, while the hunters will be hunting slimes for their cores, In my knowledge you have yet to reach level 10 so a single outing will be rather useful to you, but before you decide to go level up ,we should first make in detail plans for the future"

The handsome man said, but his face was cold, lacking all emotions.

"What the fuck are you saying, we don't have time, the quota is 100cores in a month, if we can't make it we will be penalized"

Anna said rather angry at his lack of crisis, of course she didn't know what the penalty would be but after meeting the queen once, it was already enough to understand that she wouldn't like the punishment.

"It's not like I don't want to end with the quota fast, but we don't even have a concrete map of the area, the villagers only hunted at a single spot where the weakest monsters appear and return to the Castletown each time a monster wave closes in, what we need to do it first build a fortification against the monsters and underground bunkers in case of a wave, you probably don't know but monsters sneaking into the village have been reported, meaning that ensuring the safety of your subjects should be our first priority"

Joseph said as he flipped through some papers on the desk, which was originaly Anna's, but since she was a simple city girl, she had no idea about proper management and planning.

The other eight were no different than herself, as they were given advise by either the ex-royalty with them or some advisor, in general however she came there with three people, one being Joseph, the second being a bodyguard whom would make sure that she wasn't abducted or something and the third being an adviser whom Joseph described as the queen's spy.

"Honorable hero Anna, the matters that you should concern yourself with are only two, first of all is to make the people understand whom is their leader, you already know that the village already has an adventurer that acts as the leader, enjoying all the harvests of the villagers as his own, but we cannot touch him, since he hasn't publicly proclaimed himself as their leader or anything, it is simply them that think so, thus the first thing is creating a steady tax, to disuade them from supplying him with their harvests, but first we have to know how much he charges the people, thus by charging less than him, but more than half of what he charges, most people will think twice before offering him their harvests, since they won't have enough to offer to their official ruler, as for the defense of the village you can leave it to me, in a 100m range around the village I can shoot to death any monster in range from the roof of a house"

The ex-prince said, but that didn't make Anna feel any better.

It was like the saying "one forest cannot conatain two tigers" the chinese say, or our own "one kingdom has no need of two kings", of course Anna wasn't even worth considering a contenter, the contest was between Joseph and the Adventurer group's leader.

"Can't we simply negotiate with them, after all I won't be staying here for long, I'll be going to the second floor, if we can have him rule this place in my stead, not only he will be able to collect taxes in a law abiding way, but he will also have the support of the country"

Anna said, something that made Joseph's stone expresion change a bit as his mouth line twitched for a few seconds. It wasn't like he hadn't thought about that, but he wanted to be the one to stay behind, you have to understand that he was only a level 100 noble, descending further than the first floor of the dungeon would severely raise the risk for his own life, he wanted to become the ruler of this little village that would be the safest place to later bring his three wives, whose freedom he would sooner or later buy.

"Honorable hero Anna, with all due respect I highly doubt the loyalty of an adventurer, in truth most of them are no diferent than the bandits you faced on your way to the hunt, in the first place how do you think those bandits came to be, they were adventurers whom decided to take the easy road to wealth"

The ex-prince said, making Anna's face become pale as she remembered the scene at that village. Of course Joseph's words were only half true, since only failed adventurers would fall into banditry and of the bandits whom attacked that day there was no adventurer at all present, of course if you went into their lair, you could probably find one or more adventurers, whom acted as their bosses or elites.

After some time all the villagers and adventurers were divided into two groups and stood in ranks in front of Anna, Joseph, the bodyguard and the observer.

"This is the new Official Ruler of the village, Miss Anna, she's a hero whom will stay here until she becomes strong enough to descend to the second floor, if she dies the village will be burned to the ground and everyone here hunted and killed on sight"

The observer Announced, making even Anna herself gasp for air, she had heard nothing about it and not even Joseph knew about it. The Queen had already made preparations to establish her as leader of the village.

"Secondly everyone of you gathered here have already been registered as her subjects, even if you belong to other kingdoms or believe yourselves to be free adventurers, don't think that even your oun country will shelter you if you think of disobeying her majesty's orders"

The observer's words made the atmosphere even more suffocating.

"Lastly Her majesty had decided to appoint Adventurer Kilkis as her helper and advisor for her stay in this place and stated that if the ex-prince Joseph acts like an eye-shore she gives him the right to execute him on the spot"

The observer said, making a Youthful Man with grey wolf ears on his head and a fluffy tail to howl in the air in enthousiasm and celebration and all the adventurers around him congratulating with happy faces, the young man was rather popular.

"Adventurer Kilkis thanks the Royal envoy and offers his loyalty to the honored hero Anna"

The young half-beastman Kilkis said as he bowed in front of Anna, making all of Joseph's scemes useless in a single act of loyalty, he was like those popular school boys with lots of friends and muscle for a brain.

"Now it's time for the Hero's speech"

The observer said as he looked at Anna.

"Simply state your name and promise them safety and prosperity, end with long live the Queen!"

She could hear the bodyguard's voice in her ear.

"I'm called Anna, and I, promise that I will do what's in my power to help keep the village safe, em, em, Long live the Queen?"

Her speech was fragmented low tone and showed all her inexperience and fear.

"Long live the Queen!"

Shouted Kilkis, seeing as the hero was a lot more different than he had expected and of course following his cry it echoed with the others voices.

"Long live the Hero!"

Shouted Kilkis and another wave of shoutes followed.

"Long live Nivava!"

Shouted Kilkis and the third wave followed.

Although technicaly speaking Nivava was considered a human kingdom, like Ecclesia it had a free policy and didn't discriminate between commoners, be they beastmen or elves or even orks and goblins. Only the noble circles were somewhat more closed to those races, but not a suffocating degree, that could be easily seen from the Ludicar and Joseph pair of brothers, whom were half-elves, but were still considered royalty.

Of course you shouldn't forget that the only light at the time came from moonlight stones, torches and the moon hunging in the sky, thus making this even even more spectacular, since noice in the middle of the night spreds further.

At the moment the others were experiencing similar scenes, their arrival at the village and taking over went simply too smooth and nothing out of order happened at least not against the heroes, in secret there were multiple people whom glared at the ex-royalty, but viewed with reverance their masters, the heroes that would defeat the Demon king of the 10th floor.

The reason why the everyone was happy for the Demon king's death wasn't only because it would end the the threat of the demon king coming towards them, but also because as long as the Demon king lives the monsters in the dungeon become restless and reproduced like crazy, as if they knew that the next day would be their death day.

After the Demon king reaches a high enough level he will will begin traveling upwards towards the celestial floors.
