Jaejin in the sideline with his beautiful wife freya was just observing the crowd of strong adventurers.
Disappointed with his unlikely weak and idiotic husband, freya moved her feet directly to the group leader "Rackal The Lanship Paladin".
"This Red Portal is our main goal. Move out Adventurers of Lanship" Shouted by the great paladin as he pointed his great war hammer right into the Red and Rotating Portal.
This made the goddess athena pause for a while. Then she look towards the easy going adventurer jaejin.
"This paladin is much more better compared to that asshole" as she sway her head left and right stating her discomfort to her husband. Then she walk towards the frontline.
Meanwhile the easy goin jaejin tagged along with the group. As easy as it is, he was just like a super novice adventurer, holding a black knife, strolling around the rank "A" dungeon.
Unlike him, his wife freya is doing her best to complete the dungeon raid.
At that time, their leader noticed jaejin. He then move his feet towards jaejin, and asked some funny question.
"Mister Nobody, kindly answer my kind question to you properly. How the hell,.... did you joined our team?". This question made the paladin ask himself too. A question mark was carved in his mind, for in his eyes, jaejin is like an exoskeleton, with no marks of sufferring.
Then jae jin answered resolutely . "That brute woman over there,".
He pointed his knife to freya which is currently killing the monsters easily. Rackal in return turn his head and saw the beautiful lady fighting the monsters in ease. "Punched me in the gut. I flew over the tavern, breaks the walls and lost my consciousness. Then,". He looked up above the ceiling and then tried to remember what happened next, for what he remember lastly after, that was a burnt stomach. He looked around the corridors of the dungeon, and then continue his statement.
" After that, I dont know what happened next". Jaejin rubbed his hair and Rackal turned his head back to jaejin. This made rackal question his own question again.
The great paladin then asked jaejin." What is your relationship with that beautiful woman?". As he watched jaejins whole attire and compared it to the beautiful lady in the frontline.
He cannot help himself but question this guys statement.
And Jaejin directly murmured to him in his ears. "That brute is my wife". Then jae jin retrieve his head back and walk to the front line tossing his knife in the air.
The moment, Rackal heard the word wife, his left brow roses up like the wwe hall of famer Dwayne the rock Johnson. Then he thought for awhile, "I guess, this guy has gone nuts, its impossible for him to be his wife". Then he regained his composure and put his giant warhammer on his back. "At least he is on act now, oh boy, what a poor guy, anyways thats how adventurers are". He then dashed towards the front line and smashed some monsters inside the dungeon.
"Oh boy, im back to level 1" claimed by jae jin to himself as he stabbed his black knife to the monster. As difficult as it is, he has no strength. Luckily, his experience in battle helped him move gently as soft as the river waters flow. Every hit of his blade where aimed to the neck of the monsters.
At that moment, jae jin smiled.
"Finally a level up". But once again, expectations never did meet reality, for there is no level up thing that happen.
This made jaejin stop his fight. He desperately looked around him, left, right, and above. No announcement thing appeared. Then a bulge of nerve appear on jaejins forehead. He angrily throws his knife into the ground like its the end of his world.
This tale has been unlawfully lifted from Royal Road. If you spot it on Amazon, please report it.
"THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH THIS SYSYTEM" and he stomped his feet angrily into his knife several times.
All of his comrade, even, their leader rackal was outspoken to jaejins behavior. Meanwhile, Freya cant hold herself but gave out a loud sigh "He lost it" as she went back to the frontline killing more monsters.
Rackal said to himself "Undeniably Idiot, throwing your weapon after easily beheading a monster, I guess this guy is mentally ill. Anyways we still have a long way to go, good graciousness, he could kill 3 goblins in one move, still, an idiot." Rackal shrugged his shoulder helplessly and went for more fight.
That time, due to his rage, jae jin kept stomping his feet to the dark knife, when suddenly it spoke inside his head.
"IDIOT OWNER OF MINE, HOW THE HELL DID YOU DO THAT TO ME, YOU UNGRATEFUL BASTARD".
Due to this statement jae jin cant help himself but pause his foot mid air and say to himself "OOoh". Inside his shallow river mind, he ask himself. "Who was that? ". He then slowly landed his left fucking foot to the ground and look out around him.
Then the talking knife once again spoke inside his head. "IDIOT MASTER, IM YOUR KNIFE, THE ONE THING YOUVE BEEN STOMPING SO MUCH. IF I REGAINED MY REAL HUMANOID BODY, ILL FUCKING KILL YOU".
A cold sweat, started to form on his forehead beside the lurking huge nerve as he slowly move his head downward to see his dark knife.
A silly question appear on his mind. "How in the bloody red moon did the author, made my knife talk with out a mouth? " He then look around him and pick his knife. He then moved towards the nearest adventurer to confirm the knife situation. Then he tapped the adventurers shoulder and ask him if he noticed a voice awhile ago saying "IDIOT MASTER".
"The poor adventurer has gone senile" said by jaejins co member, and he added "I did not hear anything" Then he continue his attack and left jaejin alone.
Outspoken of the words of his companion, he the moved his left hand carrying the knife towards his face and took his time observing it. Then he talk inside his shallow mind," Are you, for real?". Then the knife answered "Yes". And that made him dizzy for awhile. "Have i gone nutts?" Asked by jae jin to himself, and the knife answered "No, your still normal, unless, if you dont drop your hand down. You're just shaming yourself towards your leader and your wife. Jae jin look to his side and he saw Rackal quietly disappointed, and to the front his beautiful wife is frustrated. Aware of his actions, jae jin dropped his left hand and move like a normal being.
"How are you able to talk to me? Knife ?" Asked by jaejin inside his mind while he start attacking again. The knife answered him" Because I absorbed all of your level ups, and rank ups.". Then jae jin stabbed the knife into the goblins heart and asked "Kindly elaborate, I did not understand what you mean?." And the knife answered back "You reached the maximum level the moment you kissed the goddess, and because of this your level went back to level 0. You are supposed to be level 300, then due to level cap, you returned back to level 0. In order for gaia to make you a normal adventurer, he returned you back to level 0, and made me level reach twice the level gap, which means, I am your savior.". The statement of the knife, made jae jin irritated and he forcefully throw the knife towards the swarm of goblins.
"FUCK YOU GAIA" shouted by jae jin and the knife flew straight killing the goblins easily.
All of his team mate were shocked on what he shouted then they laugh hardly, hardly enough for their stomach to burst. Even rackal, laugh hardly himself. Then freya, ashamed of jae jin face her head to the ground, filled with disappointment.
"What an idiot" said by freya. Unknowingly to the others, his knife pivoted itself and made its way back to jae jins hand. Shocked of what had happened, jae jin, throws his knife once more and it flew straigh back to the goblins. The scene made, his team mates laugh even harder. One mate shout loudly, "We have a clown around here, doing great performance, a knife acrobat" and the whole crowd went nuts.
Freya then continue her own fight, using her sword, she no longer care for jae jins awkward moment. Even rackal, the great paladin gave no response to the clown jae jin. However, in the other hand, jae jin himself went bananas, he then asked the knife."How the hell, did you do that? Are we doing childrens party now?" and the knife answered. "Once again, idiot owner, I am a thing with a human consciousness and you are my idiot owner, so im bound to your soul. Whatever, just use me in this dungeon raid and I will explain it to you later. Dont you see, you are killing the monsters in just one blow" stated by the knife. This made jae jins shallow mind struck with lightning, then this made jae jin realized that the knife was right.
"You are correct, I will use you for now, lets talk later" and jae jin continue his fight with the monsters using his knife. Unknowingly to others, jae jin is killing the goblins in one blow. Due to this, the teams dungeon raid progress moved swiftly as lightning. Thanks to Rackal and Freya and others who were busy fighting the monsters, they reached the last door of the dungeon.
