Chapter 33. Maze.

So, Shila, could you show me the details on this thing?

What thing? The one you stole? Shila, now beside Hilda, despite disapproving either her words, her face looks more than willing to get Hilda to keep it.

Yep.

********* ***** ** * **** ******(Unknown)

Endless mana

(Description locked)

(Description locked)

Hey, this or thingy looks so valuable, but why is half the description empty?

Simple, your level sucks, the only reason you can even see the first one is due to me being upgraded. Do you understand my greatness now?

Shut it, I upgraded you, anyways, what is endless mana?

It is what it is, though due to your low level, it isn't a passive but an active skill.

So, should I try it out?

No, endless mana will obviously have a huge recoil on you.

Yea but couldn't I put that endless amount into my sword and kill the guide's clone?

Your sword can't hold that much at once.

Well that sucks.

Your body can't either so don't try it.

Yea, I wasn't intending on having an arm blown up either.

Anyways, I just need to level up, right?

Yea, you honestly struck gold with this.

Endless mana is that good?

Obviously, but that's not the only reason.

Then what's the other reason?

I have an assumption of what this is.

What is it?

Can't tell, the guide will probably downgrade me completely.

Okay, so it's very important.

Yea, I don't even know how the tenth floor got such a valuable item honestly.

Alright alright, stop it, just send me to the 16th floor already.

Sure.

Shila sends them both to the 16th floor, with Hilda looking around, finding it possible to only go forwards due to ridiculously tall walls surrounding her as she attacks them, finding that no damage was dealt.

Damn.

If you encounter this tale on Amazon, note that it's taken without the author's consent. Report it.

It's obviously not going to be so easy, are you stupid?

… Let's just go.

Sure, but don't you wanna wait for Jamine?

No.

Why not?

I promised her an award.

Award? Not reward?

Yep.

You know playing with words won't make Jamine happy right?

Yep.

So what are you gonna do about it?

Either hope she forgets or find something in the maze able to satisfy her.

So… you're hoping?

There, you got it.

Hilda and Shila eventually reach the other side, with Hilda wanting to vent her anger out on the guide as she looks to her left and right, with both sides each having their own paths.

Hey Shila, what is the theme for this maze?

It's just grasslands, you're literally walking on it right now.

So, I'll have to keep seeing this damn view for the next couple of weeks?

Yep, and you're doing it alone.

Not happening.

Hilda pulls Shila by the back of her collar, stopping her from reentering the system.

Just ask Jamine instead!! She can go further from you than I can!

No, she'll sulk for the rest of the time in the maze if I tell her I lied.

Then go buy something from the shop!

What could I even get her?

A skill!

Didn't you say that was impossible?

Yea, but that's for most of the time, right now, you're rich, thanks to me so just go to the shop!

Fine, open it up for me.

Fine, but you need to make sure I'm not following you.

Depends.

Pet lucky skill orb(legendary)

Feed this to your pets for a chance at a skill.

50% no skill.

25% common skill.

17.5% rare skill

6.5% epic skill.

1% legendary skill.

Gambling? Seriously?

So what? It'll satisfy Jamine okay?

Fine fine.

Hilda goes to buy it, stopping her finger right above the item as she notices the price.

Cost:100,000 points

That's… all of my points.

Actually, it's all your points plus 2571

Get her out, if she doesn't get a skill, you're not going away.

Fine, fine, you're actually willing to spend 100,000 points on her but the 2 skills you bought for me last time doesn't even add up to 20,000.

Just be happy with it, what else do you even need?

I guess not much… wait, could you get me mental skills too?

Why? Are you trying to copy me?

No.

Do you even actually need it? If it can't be handled using mental magic, mine is sufficient, if not, I'm pretty sure our mental magic will be useless anyways.

I guess so… just you wait! I'll find something to specialise in!

Yea yea whatever, just get Jamine already.

Suee. jamine appears mid-air in a lying down position, clearly about to fall asleep before she got teleported, landing into the ground.

Hey Jamine.

Mom!

Yes yes, it's me, mom, I got a present for you.

Present? What?

Look at this, it's a snack.

Hilda pulls out the small little circular object, holding it in her palms in front of Jamine she Jamine stares intently at it, clearly wanting it.

Here, it's your reward for helping me.

Wasn't it an award?

I said it wrongly, now just eat it.

Ok! Jamine swallows it in one go, clearly not caring enough to ask more questions.

Alright, let's see what you got!

Shila, show us.

… Sure, how unfair, you owe me a skill too or I'm going on strike.

Clone(legendary)

Allows the user to split themselves, controlling each body perfectly. If any of user's main body is destroyed, user will be transferred into a clone along with all their status except for equipment.

Jamine, you're amazing.

Mom happy?

Yes of course!

Hey Shila, what if I got this skill?

You can't, it's made for her.

What if I did?

You would split apart.

And clone?

She can clone only because of her regeneration and the fact that her real body is like a blob of slime. If you split, you're staying split, even if you got a regeneration good enough, your body would look very… deformed.

Ew… I just imagined it.

Stupid.

I'm not arguing with that this time.

Wait… Jamine.

Yes mom?

Make a clone.

Ok!

Jamine makes a clone, each half of her regenerating back into a whole each, standing in front of Hilda.

Ok, make your clone run away.

Sure?

Jamine makes her clone run far away as it slowly goes to the other wall opposite her, not being restrained to a certain distance within Hilda.

Nice! I thought the only way to pass the restriction was if I was in a dungeon and you guys weren't.

Ok Jamine, be a good girl and split yourself into a couple hundreds and find mom the way out okay?

I can't do that many.

Why?

Hilda, are you stupid? Imagine concentrating on so much at once, the skill makes it easier but not completely.

Fine, Jamine, how many can you do?

I think… 20?

Shame, but good enough, ok start!

Jamine starting splitting, disturbing Hilda slightly at the sight of basically a younger looking version of her being split in her non-stop.

Thank God the inside of her Is just a blueish transparent blob instead of real organs.

Hey Hilda.

What?

I'll help you to search too!

Why?

No reason, just wanted to help.

You just want a skill don't you?

Maybe?

Fine, if we get enough points I'll get you a good skill.

Yay!

Jamine, lead the way!

Ok mom!

Hey, your pronunciation is perfect now.

Y-yep!

Guess I jinxed it, but you're getting much better.

I working hard!

Yep, and before you said you didn't want to, I think.

Before is before!

Yes yes, now let your clones to their own way as you two let me look around while I run around quickly.

Ok!

Sure.

This is going to be easy.
