2 First Dungeon Adventure

Henry discovered that not only had he awakened a hidden class, but he had also unlocked two skills! 

Scouring the continent's history, it was hard to find many similar cases. 

Moreover, each skill seemed more extraordinary than the last.

Especially the second skill...

The number of female hidden class players in the team was directly proportional to the earnings he could gain. 

With just one female class player, he could earn a minimum of 100 times the profit!

At this moment, the crowd below was unaware of Henry's second hidden class. 

They were still clamoring, pleading for Henry to choose them for his team.

Anna Daisy scanned the group and spotted some classes that might complement both her and Henry well.

"Henry, under normal circumstances, the most basic team requires at least five people. Among these, is there any class you prefer? We could invite them to join our team."

"If not, we can broaden our search for teammates, looking beyond our class and even in society."

After pondering for a moment, Henry instructed Anna Daisy, "Let's not consider people from our class. Could you draft a recruitment ad for us?"

Anna Daisy nodded in understanding – it made sense that Henry wasn't interested in their classmates. 

Given that both were hidden classes, and Henry being a support, it was crucial to be selective about their teammates.

"I'll get right on it. Is there anything specific you want to include in the ad?"

Henry grinned. 

"Just add the part about the support role's ability to increase earnings tenfold. Any awakener with a sound mind would want to join."

Anna Daisy nodded, then voiced a concern. 

"But without any restrictions, we might attract too many people drawn by the fame. Even selecting among them could be time-consuming."

Henry coughed awkwardly, admitting, "Of course, there are conditions. Firstly, they must be a hidden class."

Anna Daisy agreed, finding the condition reasonable.

"Secondly, all members who join must be female!"

"Hmm?" Anna Daisy raised an eyebrow, playfully pinching Henry's side. "Am I not enough for you?"

"That's not what I mean," Henry said, feeling as if his thoughts were exposed. 

"My class has a unique feature – female hidden class members can provide me with a greater boost."

Hearing Henry's explanation, Anna Daisy pouted, but her words remained teasing. "I don't care, I'm still upset. You owe me."

"Anything, just name your compensation."

"Tonight, I want to be on top. You're not allowed to move; you have to follow my lead."

"Ha, no problem at all. You can be on top all night."

The newly awakened duo walked out of the classroom, oblivious to the surroundings. 

All they needed now was to form their team, getting ready for their first dungeon adventure.

The teacher in the classroom didn't intervene. 

After all, their task for the day had ended with the awakening. 

Moreover, both were rare talents, having awakened special hidden classes, and deserved some favoritism.

Henry's home was located on William Cross Street, in a narrow row house. 

His parents were mid-level bank employees, earning around ten gold coins a month. 

Their house was their biggest expenditure, taking up about half of their monthly income. 

Now, as an awakener, Henry could significantly improve his family's living conditions.

Awakener equipment was highly valuable, with some high-level wrist guards selling for hundreds of gold coins. 

Although Henry's parents were relatively well-off among the common folk, their wealth paled in comparison to that of an awakener.

"I'll move my family to a larger, detached villa when I have the money. At least six to seven bedrooms, and it must have good soundproofing. That way, Anna Daisy can scream as loud as she likes when we make love at home." 

Henry vowed silently, oblivious to his lover's movements above him, instead focusing on his future life plans.

Suddenly, Anna Daisy stopped, causing Henry to frown. "Why did you stop? Are you tired? I've still got about an hour before I reach my limit."

Anna Daisy shook her head, picked up her phone, and showed it to Henry with a hint of excitement. 

"We've already got a female hidden class player wanting to join our team."

"Let me see." Henry's excitement was palpable, considering one female hidden class player represented a hundredfold increase in personal earnings.

"Ah, slow down pulling out," Anna Daisy exclaimed shyly, then lay in Henry's arms as they both looked at the conditions sent by the potential teammate.

"She wants to take charge of our team and have the final say in the distribution of earnings?"

Henry furrowed his brows, clearly dissatisfied with the conditions proposed by the other party. 

"Should we reject her? Although hidden classes are rare, I believe we can find new teammates within a month," Anna Daisy suggested.

But Henry simply smiled nonchalantly. "No need. This hidden class player is likely the niece of our Bolt Academy's principal."

A glint of surprise flashed in Anna Daisy's eyes. "The one who awakened a hidden magus class six months ago?"

Henry nodded. "I've heard that she awakened a group attack type of magus skill, which consumes a large amount of MP and requires several times more experience to level up than others."

"She's changed teams several times over the past six months, unable to keep up with the pace of their leveling, resulting in being left behind."

"But if she joins our team, things will be different. While others spend time leveling up once, with me, she could level up five or six times. I don't believe she can resist such an offer."

"So, what should we do now?" Anna Daisy asked.

"Let's not look for others for now. We'll go down to the dungeon just the two of us. Once we come out and she sees our earnings, that female hidden class player will come to us like a mad dog."

Henry already envisioned the female hidden class player's eagerness. 

To all awakeners, rapid leveling up was an irresistible temptation.

Anna Daisy was also looking forward to their first dungeon adventure. "When do we set off?"

"Just a moment, there's something you haven't finished yet."

Henry stood up and pointed to the prominent little brother between his legs, looking at Anna Daisy with a mischievous smile on his face.

"You can't expect it to work in such a tense state, can you? I might start slacking off. Come on, use your mouth to cool it down."

Anna Daisy rolled her eyes at Henry, then opened her cherry-like lips to take the massive object into her mouth.

...

The next morning, as the sun rose, the two of them packed their gear and arrived at the entrance to Silence Forest.

It was a typical dungeon entrance, with most of the monsters inside below level 5 or 6.

Although the monkeys inside were somewhat tricky, their overall attack power wasn't significant.

Anna Daisy's hidden class happened to be an archer, capable of launching attacks from a distance, a perfect match for Silence Forest.

"Henry, do you have a plan?" Anna Daisy asked, pulling out a map from her pocket.

"I bought this map from the black market. About 3 kilometers ahead, there's a waterfall where the monsters are of a higher level. Killing them might let us gain experience more quickly."

"No, no, we're not going there," Henry decisively rejected Anna Daisy's suggestion.

Why would he, a support, go there and fight alongside Anna Daisy? That was just inviting injury.

Henry pointed to a small stream.

"Let's go here and focus on hunting the mutant fish. Each one is around level 2, which should be manageable for you."

Anna Daisy was completely stunned, her mouth agape.

"Are you sure we should go here? It will take ages to level up."

"Not at all, leveling up here isn't slow. Don't forget my support skill offers a 10x reward."

"Well, let's give it a try."

Skeptical yet curious, Anna Daisy followed Henry to the stream teeming with low-level mutant fish.

Seizing the opportunity, Anna Daisy took out a metallic alloy bow from her back, nocked an arrow, and aimed at a mutant fish in the stream. With a whoosh, the arrow flew.

"Ding, you've gained 1,000 experience points, and your level has risen from 3 to 4!"

"You've awakened the automatic trigger skill [Active Excellence]: Each hit on a target brings you a 0.01% increase in precision."

Staring at her attribute panel, Anna Daisy stood dumbfounded, lost in the whirlwind of her thoughts.
