’I guess I’ll need to get even more [Eternal Coins] in the future if I want to fully take advantage of this domain,’ he thought, his expression turning slightly more serious as he considered what lay ahead.
After all, this was only the [Newbie District].
Beyond this, there were still the [Advanced District] and the [Awakened District], places that would undoubtedly offer even more powerful items, but at the cost of significantly higher prices.
If he wanted to keep up, if he wanted to stay ahead, then he would need to continue increasing his wealth.
For now though, he pushed those thoughts aside and focused on what he had just obtained.
One by one, he reviewed the items briefly.
[Supre Healing Potion (Legendary): Upon consuming, will heal all injuries and possibly even restore lost limbs.]
[Resurrection Stone (Legendary): Will revive soone at the nearest "safe point" upon death. Automatically consud if the user dies.]
[Soul Fla Spear (Legendary): 12,000 Attack Power, 5,000 Spirit, 5,000 Strength, 4,000 Agility. A spear that can channel the soul power of their user into powerful flas.]
[Spirit Tenacity Armor (Legendary): 10,000 Defense, 5,000 Constitution, 4,000 Strength, 3,000 Agility. If the user is hurt badly, the armor will allow them to keep going for a few more seconds.]
[Newbie Heavenly Robe (Legendary): 4,000 Spirit, 3,000 Constitution, 2,500 Agility. There is a small trace of divinity on this robe, though it is faint.]
"Nice," Leon nodded, clearly satisfied as he stored all of them safely in his [Storage Space].
And that was when another thought crossed his mind.
Since Leon still had a massive amount of [Eternal Coins] left, precisely 6,681,470, and there were no other items in the B-Rank section that he currently needed or considered worth buying, it beca obvious that there was only one logical thing to do with that remaining wealth.
He could invest it into himself. More specifically, into his [Storage Space].
Up until now, it had served him well, but if he was going to continue progressing at this pace, if he was going to keep acquiring more and more valuable items, then its current capacity would eventually beco a limitation.
And that was sothing he couldn’t afford.
Especially not with what was coming next. The [Expert Divine Temple].
Leon’s expression beca slightly more serious as that na crossed his mind, the weight behind it undeniable as he thought about what kind of challenge it would present.
He already knew that this temple would be on an entirely different level compared to the previous ones he had cleared.
Not just slightly harder or marginally more dangerous, but fundantally different in difficulty, to the point where comparing it to the [Advanced Divine Temple] would almost feel aningless.
If the previous temple had already pushed players to their limits, then this one would likely go far beyond that.
Possibly even surpassing the difficulty of the [God-Rank] assessnt he had received before.
’In fact... I wonder if I’ll get another [God-Rank] assessnt,’ Leon thought quietly, his eyes narrowing slightly as the idea lingered in his mind, ’Would be... interesting.’
There was a faint hint of anticipation in that thought, but it was mixed with sothing else: caution.
Because unlike before, Leon fully understood what a [God-Rank] assessnt truly ant.
It was sothing designed to push him to the absolute edge, sothing that demanded everything from him without holding anything back.
And this ti, the stakes would likely be even higher.
Still, no matter how difficult it would be, Leon had no intention of backing down.
Which was exactly why he needed to prepare as much as possible beforehand.
And increasing his [Storage Space] was part of that preparation.
Without wasting any ti, Leon opened the relevant panel and proceeded with the upgrade.
Ding!
[Do you wish to spend 50,000 Eternal Coins to expand your "Storage Space" by 10 slots?]
"Yes," Leon responded instantly without even a second of hesitation.
Fwoosh!
A soft golden aura spread outward from the panel, glowing briefly as the transaction took place, the 50,000 Eternal Coins being consud and converted into energy that flowed directly into his [Storage Space], reinforcing it and expanding its capacity.
For a brief mont, nothing happened.
And then—
Ding!
[Your "Storage Space’s" slots have increased to 180.]
Leon glanced at the updated number, acknowledging it with a small nod, though to him, that amount of coins spent was barely noticeable, almost insignificant compared to the total he still had left.
So naturally, he continued. Another prompt appeared almost imdiately.
Ding!
[Do you wish to spend 100,000 250,000 500,000 1,000,000 2,500,000 Eternal Coins to expand your "Storage Space" by 50 slots?]
As expected, the cost had increased drastically. Exponentially, in fact.
If he continued at this rate, the next upgrade would likely cost around 5,000,000 Eternal Coins.
And the one after that? Probably double that.
Still, Leon didn’t hesitate.
Ding!
[Your "Storage Space’s" slots have increased to 230.]
A total of 230 slots. That was more than enough for now.
A quiet sense of satisfaction settled in as Leon considered the expanded capacity, knowing that this would allow him to carry far more items without needing to constantly manage it all.
His remaining balance updated accordingly.
[Eternal Coins: 2,281,470]
Even after spending such a large amount, he still had over two million coins left, which was more than enough to keep him in a comfortable position for the ti being.
He wasn’t broke. Far from it. In fact, compared to most players, he was still incredibly wealthy.
With that done, Leon closed the panel and opened his [World Map] instead, his eyes scanning across it for a few seconds before settling on a familiar icon: a small house.
Without wasting ti, he tapped it.
Ding!
[Do you wish to teleport to "Housing Area"?]
"Yes."
Fwoosh!
His body dissolved into particles once again, disappearing instantly as the teleportation activated, and within the next mont, he reappeared in the housing district, surrounded by the familiar sight of buildings and hotels.
Leon didn’t stop to admire anything. There was no reason to linger.
Instead, he moved forward imdiately, heading straight toward the place where Emilia and Celeste were waiting for him.
After a few minutes, he stepped inside.
"Huh?" the receptionist behind the counter blinked in confusion as he noticed Leon’s sudden appearance, his expression turning strange as he tried to make sense of what he had just seen, "But... how did you... Did you jump from the window?!"
Leon ignored him completely.
A small, almost amused smile appeared on his face, but he didn’t bother responding or explaining anything.
From the receptionist’s perspective, it probably looked like Leon had sohow exited the hotel in an impossible way and then casually walked back in through the front entrance, completely defying logic.
But Leon had no interest in clarifying that.
The [World Map] was simply too convenient. Too powerful.
And the more he used it, the more he realized just how valuable it truly was.
’If it works in the [Eternal Battlefield] and the [Eternal Domain],’ Leon thought, his expression turning slightly colder as he considered the implications, ’Then this is going to make things a lot easier.’
Of course, there were limitations. He wasn’t naive enough to think it was flawless.
For exemple, the mont he entered combat, whether by attacking or being attacked, the teleportation function would lock completely, preventing him from using it to escape danger.
He could still open the map. But he couldn’t use it. Which ant that timing would always be crucial.
Eventually, Leon reached the room they had used the previous night and stepped inside without hesitation.
