45 Chapter 5: First Death... A Gentle Embrace!

I was standing in the Ratmen Village again, wearing a basic leather armour bought from the item shop for 150 gold. Thanks to the cute item cat, I didn't get depressed from losing $15,000!

The 9th Floor was, as I thought, reaching the current village. Ah, but there was no boss. Just a few groups of the warrior Ratmen, the huge one brought with him during the final wave.

Spending money made me feel sick; I disliked wasting it.

However, my life and safety started to matter as my left hand wore the special ring, and the black gauntlets were snugly on my hands.

This time there were no strange people or nice sexy halflings to party with.

After this, I could reach the Guild via new transportation that opened once you cleared the 10th Floor properly.

For some reason, Eternia didn't come—only Lupera was sleeping on my shoulder like always.

{Oh my~ am I not good enough?}

Shaking my head, I sat on the village's western side, waiting for the rest of the groups to arrive.
