031 Ace Wallenstein

Tower of Babel, Square.

As night falls, the magic stone lampposts around the square have been opened one by one, allowing the magic stone lamps to emit bright light, illuminating the entire giant chalk tower filled with experts.

Ais walked out of the giant tower. Her dazzling blond hair was not messy, but traces of filth could be seen everywhere on her body.

However, even so, the girl still attracted countless gazes and became the focus of the audience.

"Look! It's Sword Princess!"

"The one from the Loki Familia?"

"She is still as beautiful as ever, not inferior to the goddesses at all."

"Looking at her, it looks like she just came back from the dungeon, right?"

"What a great effort. It's obvious that the Loki Familia just returned from the expedition not long ago, yet they still go into the dungeon every day."

"Although she is already 5, she is still the number one female swordsman in Orario."

"It would be great if I could become a first-level adventurer."

"How can it be so easy?"

In the midst of some discussion, eyes with various emotions were focused on Aisi. Some were full of surprise, some were full of love, some were full of envy, and some were also full of jealousy.

As one of the most famous people in Orario, Ais, a leader of the Loki Familia, is destined to attract attention wherever she goes, not to mention that she has a beauty that rivals that of a goddess.

Aisi has become accustomed to this, or in other words, she has long since stopped caring about it.

The girl just lowered her head slightly and walked among the crowd, thinking about other things in her heart.

In other words, she was thinking about her own business.

Gazing slightly across her back, Aisi's first thought was of today's hard work and the results obtained after the same hard work yesterday.

ace wallenstein

5

Strength: D535→D536

Durability: D531→D532

Smart: A813

Agility: A810

Magic: A888

Hunter:G

Abnormal Resistance: G

Swordsman: I

This is the latest information Ais got when she updated her ability values ​​from Loki yesterday.

If this intelligence information is leaked, many people in Oralele should be amazed, right?

"Strength" and "Durability" have both reached the D stage.

"Dexterity", "Agility", and "Magic" have all reached stage A.

Even Aisi has three development abilities that can only be obtained when upgrading. Although the level is not high, compared to the situation where she does not obtain any development abilities through upgrading, this achievement can be regarded as excellent, at least. Envious enough.

To put it bluntly, Aisi’s performance is already at the top level among the 5.

In Orario, and even in the whole world, there may not be a few beings with a higher ability value than Ais at level 5.

However, when thinking about her abilities, Ais felt a little haze.

"too slow"

This is what the girl was thinking about.

In the past few days, Aisi has been working hard to explore the dungeon, and has even gone deep into floors that are difficult for ordinary adventurers to reach.

The floors she arrived at were all in the area below the 20th floor, and she faced at least monsters classified as level 3 by the guild every day.

Ais was on such a floor, among such a group of monsters, killing countless monsters every day, from the dawn to the night after dark, making herself dusty and embarrassed.

But after working so hard, after a few days, in the end, only the lower "Strength" and "Durability" were improved by 1 point of proficiency respectively, while the other abilities were not even touched, which made Aisi's mood change from last night. It's been bad since the beginning.

Seeing the girl's appearance, the Lord God spoke a little more.

"I said, Aisitan, you are already pretty good like this. You are already level 5. You can still grow after exploring a floor with monsters whose level is far lower than your own for a few days. This would definitely be possible if it were someone else. Not enough.”

The Lord God opened his normally squinted eyes, rarely looking at Ais seriously, and said this.

"Which child at your level hasn't struggled for years or even decades to achieve such results?"

"It has only been three years since you were promoted to 5. In three years, you can raise your ability value to the highest level of 5. This potential is the highest among our family members, even Finn and Grace are at 5. I have never grown up as fast as you."

"We hope that you will become stronger and better, but everything must have a limit. Even we (gods) will not ask you (children) to become heroes overnight. ?”

"You are already running very fast. If you run any faster, you will fall."

"So, sometimes you have to know when enough is enough, understand?"

The Lord God's heartfelt persuasion was still vivid in her mind, echoing in Ais's heart.

But Aisi is still dissatisfied with her growth rate.

It has been more than three years since she reached level 5, and Ais also knows that she has already delivered results at this level that are worthy of praise from the gods.

But recently, the growth in ability points has been very minimal, which makes Ais feel a sense of urgency.

Like now, after working hard to defeat monsters in the dungeon and fighting for several days, the overall increase in ability points was only 2 points. How could this make Ais happy?

It was the same thing a while ago. Ming Ming went on an expedition with the family members and fought in the ultra-deep layers below the 50th floor for about two weeks. During this period, they cut down countless monsters classified as 4 or higher. But in the end, Ais obtained The growth is only a total of more than ten points of proficiency improvement.

This is too slow.

It was so slow that Ais was dissatisfied.

It was so slow that Ais felt filled with gloom.

Especially when she saw someone growing up at a speed that could be called foul, Ais felt not only dissatisfaction, but even eagerness and anxiety.

If this continues, when will I become strong enough?

"[The Fool's Obsession]?"

Ais thought of that unheard of and unseen skill, and her heart was filled with distracting thoughts.

Skills that can accelerate growth and increase the upper limit of potential.

Why doesn't she have such skills?

"What kind of obsession can make that kind of skill appear?"

Ability discovered based on God's favor, whether it is magic or skill, is related to one's nature or interests.

In other words, it is the crystallization of longing and the fruit of fantasy.

It sounds like a miracle that can turn fantasies into phenomena and make things come true, but this is not the case.

In this world, there are almost all people who want to become stronger quickly, but none of them have awakened the foul skills that can accelerate growth and increase potential.

If you can think about it, why don't you?

Will my desire and mood to become stronger still be lost to others?

Therefore, if you want to have a skill like [Fool's Obsession], just fantasy is definitely not enough.

The more exaggerated a skill is, the more amazingly effective a skill is, the more it tests a person's heart and essence. Only when this part of the heart and essence is recognized, and is strong enough, can the actual ability appear in favor.

so---

"What obsession led him to awaken such a skill?"

Aisi fell into deep thought about this question, and her mind was filled with the face of the man who seemed calm and calm, but actually had sharpness and passion in his eyes.

Ace Wallenstein longs for power.

Incomparable desire.

Because she has a sad wish and a grudge.

For this reason, she must become stronger as soon as possible.

With this tragic wish and obsession, the girl is still pursuing the secret and path to becoming stronger today.

However, just as Ais was about to walk out of the square and into the main street, she discovered some commotion.

"Hurry up and get to the guild!"

"This matter must be reported!"

"Something happened! Something big happened!"

"An abnormal situation has occurred on the 6th floor, and some adventurers have been injured or killed!"

A group of adventurers who had obviously just returned from the dungeon were noisy and embarrassed on the road. Their frightened appearance and blood stains all over their bodies made Ais stop in her tracks.

"Abnormal situation?"

Ais frowned slightly when she heard this term, which used to make adventurers the most uneasy.

Especially the following words made Aisi feel even more concerned.

"Someone witnessed a male human swordsman fighting an unknown monster, and there was a young elf magician next to him?"

Unfortunately, Aisi knew that there was such a combination.

A combination that just appeared today, even Ais felt a little surprised.

That was what Ais found out when she happened to overhear the members of the family members discussing when she went out in the morning.

"Will it be Li Ge and Lefia?"

Ais felt a little uneasy.

On the upper level, which is usually a group of three, will a second team of human swordsmen and elf magicians appear by chance?

Ace doesn't think so.

"Level 6"

After muttering something in her mouth, Ais turned around and started running.

Target, Tower of Babel.

Dungeon, level 6.

As soon as she entered here, the uneasiness in Ais's heart turned into reality.

There is no other reason.

I saw that in this floor that only new adventurers would explore in the past, Ais saw many people lying on the ground, lifeless, well-equipped, obviously strong, and they should be adventurous in deeper floors. The corpse of the person.

Their deaths were extremely miserable, some were disemboweled, and some were left with only broken limbs. Scarlet bloodstains spread all over the ground and walls, making Aisi feel deeply uncomfortable.

And this also told Ais that something abnormal had really happened here, and a powerful monster had appeared.

The image of a human man and a close family member lying in a pool of blood, who had left a deep impression on her mind, flashed through her mind. Ais shook her head vigorously and shook it away, but her speed increased unconsciously.

"Over here?"

Not long after, Ais noticed a huge noise, like the sound of something fighting.

So Aisi hurried over.

Not long after, Ais arrived at the battlefield.

Then, she saw the familiar figure of her junior.

"Lefia!"

Ais shouted unconsciously.

However, in the past, the younger generation would look moved and happy when he heard his shouts, but now he just stared blankly ahead.

Aisi looked around, and then lost her voice as well.

"Roar!"

A huge body unique to large species appeared in the narrow passage, making a deafening cry.

In the cry, there was anger, ferocity, violence, hysteria, and finally a trace of fear.

Ais saw a huge monster that she had never seen before, roaring in pain.

In front of it, a figure covered in blood was charging and galloping.
