Seven days later I already accumulated a stack of 33 178 600 points. 33 percent of what I needed for the next upgrade. I also had 78 class points, but I kinda was ignoring them, since the amount was way too small for anything I could consider 'an upgrade'.
I kept following the group to the cave, mainly because I didn't have much to do, but also to keep watch on my daughter and John. Their first fight didn't convince me they could take the boss on their own safely enough, but the fights after that one looked way cleaner.
They began understanding him, and their own capabilities in comparison to his, way more. The classes they bought also clearly helped. Tihana was investing in fire magic, and also in mele fighting, which John kept pursuing solely the close combat.
This led to me believing I'm not needed there as a babysitter, because by the end of the week they looked quite clean while dealing with the goblin.
