Next day, early morning.
Leon felt an urge to urinate, groggily crawled out of bed, intending to go downstairs to the inn’s public washroom, only to bump into a familiar face.
"Fingerley?" His eyes were slightly blurry but he could still recognize him.
"Leon, what a coincidence, you’re staying here too." Fingerley greeted with a smile, looking amiable, though his eyes were weary.
"Are you... heading to the Dungeon?" Seeing the full gear, Leon knew he was about to set out.
"Yeah, it’s getting late, go late and I have to queue, oh right."
Fingerley suddenly rembered sothing and dug into his pocket, "I was going to find you, eting here is just perfect."
"What’s this?" Leon rubbed his eyes, closely examining the papers Fingerley handed over. They were filled with scribbles, seemingly a strategy guide about the Deep Church?
The content looked a bit rough, like it was penned during an all-nighter, lacking clear structure, just random thoughts written down.
"You wrote this?" He raised his head in surprise.
Fingerley proudly puffed up his chest, "To be honest, I fought against the head boss of Deep Church yesterday. Although narrowly defeated, I will surely win today!"
He continued,
"I’ve read quite a few strategy guides from your group before, I owe you for that. This ti, I want to help you, feel free to rely on my experience to challenge the Dungeon!"
Fingerley laughed heartily as he left, full of energy, walking briskly, as if fearing Leon would decline his kindness.
"Ah..."
Leon watched his back, hesitating to speak.
At this point, they couldn’t reveal that they defeated the Deep Bishop yesterday.
"Better not ntion it, too awkward..."
Hopefully, Fingerley wouldn’t find out through other ans that Leon was the first to defeat the Deep Bishop.
When a ray of sunlight shone on Leon through the window, he suddenly exclaid,
"Oh no, how co it’s morning already!"
He quickly woke Maru and the others, rushed out of the Royal City at dawn, treading on dew-covered grass heading to the teleportation gate of Sain Dungeon.
Typically, people in the Royal City were still asleep at this hour, only a few would rise early to work.
But since Sain Dungeon arrived here, not only the Royal City, but neighboring Garden City’s schedule adapted to the adventurer’s routine.
A faint fog hovered in the air as Leon and others’ shadows moved through, while behind them, various figures lood in the mist, numbering at least a hundred.
These were adventurers!
They got up early to head to the Dungeon, should be considered diligent, right?
No, actually, this group could be called lazy, because Sain Dungeon closes at midnight and opens at 3 a.m. Truly diligent ones wouldn’t go to the Royal City; they’d camp near the teleportation gate, catch a nap!
"Oh no, Boss, why did we oversleep!" Maru perched on Tal’s shoulder, the two resembled a giant zombie and a little ghost zombie.
The Strategy Group was currently sprinting, propelling the adventurers behind to run as well. Although unsure why they were running, everyone ran together, so why not join in?
"I don’t know why I overslept either!" Leon directly tucked the short Drew under his arm as he and Tal strode forward.
He clearly decided to be the first to enter Yilushier, even prepared an image stone to capture the entry mont, this ti he must flaunt!
But until now, what if soone else got a little puppet and entered before them?
Don’t want that!
They desperately ran, but upon reaching the teleportation gate, it was already crowded, people orderly queuing.
Despair shone in Leon’s eyes as he stumbled over a rock, fell to the ground, rolling twice until crashing into soone.
"Ouch... sorry." Standing up while clutching his head, he apologized to the person he bumped into, but realized everyone was staring at him.
"?"
Sure, tripping on flat ground while rolling was embarrassing, but why stare? Haven’t you tripped on flat ground?
"Are you Leon?" soone asked.
"Yes," Leon hesitated, feeling their gaze was odd. "What’s the matter?"
"It really is him."
"Actually eting him in person."
"Young and promising, truly young and promising."
???
A flurry of question marks appeared in Leon’s mind. Witnessing, people silently opened a path, allowing Leon to go forward to the teleportation gate.
As he walked over, he finally understood why they were staring.
Beside the teleportation gate, a monunt suddenly appeared.
[Deep Church - Deep Bishop - Leon, Maru, Drew, Tal]
[Casas Underground Tomb - Overlord Vonier - Leon...]
[Reyalucaria Magic Academy - Full Moon Queen’s Biomitic Tear Drop - Steeran...]
At first, he didn’t comprehend until he saw the bosses linked with his na and realized.
This was the list of first conquerors!
"Wow, Boss, we’re going to be famous again." Maru’s eyes glead.
