"Next is the final explanation. After that, you are free to do what you want, including doing quests" ( Arata )
The group continued walking leaving the Potions Shop. They walk back to the Quest Board because Arata is sure that Ran's group will take the Quest after the explanation is over.
"The last information I gave was about Levels, Pets and Clans. The first is Level, in this Dungeon later the Adventurer's Level will be unlimited. This means that you are free to raise the Level as high as possible.
Even though it is not limited, the resources on each Dungeon floor will not be enough to raise the level. It's not impossible, but the process will be difficult and long because you have to compete with other adventurers. You better hurry up and defeat the Floor Boss and go up to the next floor.
Apart from getting 20 Status Points when leveling up, your HP and MP will also increase by 100 each. HP and MP can also increase apart from leveling up by using Status Points to add to Status in the Vitality and Magic sections" ( Arata )
"I see, Convenient and easy to understand system" ( Marguerite )
"Can Status increase other than with Status Points? Practice for example" ( Ran )
"Unfortunately no, the system's rules are already like that. But if you guys want to practice I won't forbid it, because practice also has benefits" ( Arata )
"Didn't you say training doesn't increase Status? Then what's the benefit?" ( Daisy )
"Practice really can't increase Status, but it can increase the Skill Level you have" ( Arata )
"I see, Skills have levels so by practicing we will increase the level of the skills we have. Take Archery for example, if the level increases I believe either the power, speed, or distance on the arrows released will increase" ( Ran )
"100 for you. Every skill has a level, from E to EX. The higher the level, the more powerful and useful the skill. But let me remind you one thing, there are no useless skills, there are only people who can't use those skills" ( Arata )
"""""Okay, we understand""""" ( Kuja Pirates )
"Humu, the second one is Pets. You already know that there are monsters here even though you haven't seen them" ( Arata )
The Kuja Pirates nodded. Even though they haven't seen a monster, with all the things that Arata has shown, they believe what Arata said.
"The benefits of monsters are to get XP and drop items. But apart from those 2 benefits, there are other benefits, namely monsters can be used as pets.
The condition for making a monster a Pet is to tame it, the monster must agree to become your Pet.
Monsters can also stop being your Pets if the treatment they get isn't what the monsters want. So you better be careful when giving orders.
There are many uses for Pets, I'm sure you guys got the idea. Hancock has one too right?" (Arata)
"That's right, a snake named Salome. Salome helps Hebihime a lot in her affairs, including fighting" (Ran)
"If you get a Pet, I'm sure it will be very helpful in leveling up and exploring Dungeons because monsters also have skills" ( Arata )
"How do I get a monster to agree to be a Pet?" ( Aphelandra )
"Easy enough, you can beat him but don't kill it or take care of it since was small. Monsters also have levels right? If they become your Pets, monsters can also level up and grow stronger with you. 1 person can only have 1 Pet" ( Arata )
"Again, Convenient Features of the System" ( Marguerite )
"The latter is also quite useful. While walking around earlier you saw an empty building right? You can buy the building to create a clan.
The Clan was an organization that at its core was like a Pirate Group in the outside world. At the end of Season 1 which will last for 6 months, the top Clans will receive rewards from the Dungeon. The prizes are various and uncertain, but I'm sure the rewards will be useful for the benefit of the Clan" ( Arata )
"How to determine the top Clan? Is it only by strength?" ( Ran )
"Strength is also one of the criteria. Another determining criterion is the Clan's contribution to the City. Clan's contribution can be increased through completing Quests.
If each Clan member's Quest Success Rate is high, the contribution to the Town will be high. Once the gifts have been awarded to each Clan, the City contributions will be reset and each Clan will have to collect them again. Later every 6 months, the ranking will be displayed in-
Jeez, I forgot the other place. You guys, I'm sorry. There's another place I forgot to point out. Mind if we take another walk? ( Arata )
"Ah, that's fine. We don't mind" ( Sweet Pea )
The Kuja Pirates nodded, not minding walking again. It was still early, so they weren't in a hurry. They are also still waiting for their Captain Hancock. So the way back for additional information will not be a problem.
They walked back for another 10 minutes and finally arrived at an uncovered hall with several empty black stones inside. The size of the stone is quite large, has a length of 15 meters and a height of 5 meters. Previously they had not passed this way so did not know this place.
"This place is the Rating Hall and this boulder is called the Rank Inscription. It records all the rankings within the Dungeon. Including the top Clans, there are also the Strongest Adventurers, Adventurers with the Highest Levels, Adventurers who reached the Highest Floor and many more.
Your name will also be written here if you can beat the Floor Boss but you have to be with 1 Party. If more than 1 Party then only the name of the Party Leader is written" ( Arata )
"With this thing we know for sure who is the strongest here" ( Marguerite )
"Outside we only have an idea of who is the strongest, and it's not certain" ( Sweet Pea )
"You fight so that your names or the clan that you will build is written here" ( Arata )
"We will fight" ( Ran )
"Next is the last one. This time I'm serious, no one forgets anymore... Maybe" ( Arata )
They walked again, and arrived at their destination quickly because it was close to the Rating Hall.
Right in front of them stood a large towering building with a circular shape.
"What is this? The training ground you were referring to earlier?" ( Daisy )
"I don't think so, maybe a fighting arena?" ( Marguerite )
"You're right Marguerite, this is indeed a fighting arena. It's called the Alcinder Colosseum. A place where adventurers duel to solve their problems.
Sometimes adventurers conducting duels bet with their items. You can also challenge other people and this is where the duel is done" ( Arata )
"So duels are not carried out carelessly. With this Colosseum, civilians will not be dragged into duels carried out by adventurers" ( Sweet Pea )
"If a duel occurs the civilians can also see it, it will be entertainment for them, because we adventurers cannot die" ( Aphelandra )
"That's all the basic information you should know. Now let's go back to the Quest Board, because I think you guys want to do the Quest as soon as possible" ( Arata )

Finally the explanation ended, and it was time for Dungeon exploration to begin.
Sorry if the chapter on explanation is long but it is important stuff.
