"Now, let's see my new personalized quests."
[«Quest- Slay 1000 monsters of any difficulty.»
‹Time- 24 hours.›
«Reward- 50 Royal grade jade runes.»]
"What is a jade rune, and what does it do?" Zach asked Aurora.
"It depends on how you want to use them. You can convert them into coins; 1 normal jade is worth ten coins."
"You can use them to upgrade your equipment and enhance their stats, but in my opinion, you shouldn't use them in that. It's not worth it."
"Then you can use them to craft items. Uhh, it's like a material used for crafting. But that's only for those who have the crafting ability."
"You can also use them as normal runes and exchange them for the artifacts in the magic shop."
"Magic shop?" Zach uttered in wonder after hearing that. "What's that?"
Aurora squinted her eyes and said, "You haven't read anything about this game, have you?"
"If I start reading everything, then it will take me a week to read everything. It's that long," Zach replied.
"Magic shop is a personalized shop; where you can buy and sell your unique items, and get anything you want in return. However, the magic shop rarely appears, and it differs from player to player," Aurora explained.
"I see…" Zach pondered, 'I wonder if I can find gloves there.'
[«Quest- Cultivate 5000 MP.»
‹Time- 7 days.›
«Reward- ???.»]
'That's easy. But what's with the reward?' Zach thought the reward wasn't guaranteed.
[«Quest- Do something you would never do.»
‹Time- 1 minute.›
«Reward- 1 coin.»
«Penalty- 50% of your bank amount will be deducted.»]
"What the—!" Zach remembered what Aurora told him a while ago. 'Once the player has reached level 5, they receive personalized quests depending on their gameplay, personality, and class.'
'Sons of bitches!' He cursed the gods.
Zach was lost in thoughts. There were so many things he would never do, and he was thinking of something easy as he had only one minute left to complete the Quest.
"I guess I have no other choice…" Zach placed his hands on Aurora's shoulders and gazed into her eyes with a serious look on his face. "Aurora…"
"W-Wh…at?" Aurora stuttered with a flushed face.
"I am going to do something I would never do to anyone," Zach asserted in a solemn voice.
Aurora's face flushed even more as she said, "Ok…ay."
'I can't believe I am really going to do this…' Zach sighed and asked, "Are you ready?"
Aurora quietly nodded, with her face still flushed red.
Aurora closed her eyes and waited for Zach to do something. Suddenly, she received a prompt on her screen.
[Zach has sent you 100,000 coins. Press 'yes' to accept.]
Aurora lost all her excitement and asked, "What is this?"
"Accept it. Don't ask any questions."
Aurora pressed 'Yes', and 100,000 coins were transferred to her.
[Congratulations. Quest 'Do something you would never do.' has been completed!]
[Congratulations! You have received the reward of completing the Quest. Reward- 1 coin.]
Zach sighed in relief and looked at Aurora.
"Why did you give me money?" Aurora asked with a confused look on her face.
"I had a quest. Now give me back my money," Zach uttered nonchalantly.
Aurora's face twitched in frustration. Her expectations were betrayed twice within 10 seconds.
Zach could have given her only ten coins, but that was a normal amount he would have given to anyone in need. He could also give 100 coins to his friends, even 1000 coins. But he would never give 100000 coins without a valid reason provided by the opposite party.
Of course, there were many other things Zach could have done. For example, kissing Aurora, flipping her dress, spanking her butt, groping her; those were the things he would never do to the girl he barely knew. But he chose to do the simplest thing possible. After all, he had to survive Aurora's wrath later.
Aurora returned 98511 coins to Zach and said, "I have deducted my payment for healing you." She smiled in a creepy manner and added, "Enjoy."
Zach turned his face to the side and muttered, "Girls..."
As Zach had completed the Quest, he received a new quest.
[«Quest- Deal 30000 DMG within 1 second.»
‹Time- 10 hour.›
«Reward- 500 Magic Shop points.»
Zach didn't know what shop points were used for, but he had a pretty firm idea. However, he chose to confirm it with Aurora.
"What do shop points stand for?"
He expected Aurora to answer, but she didn't. She simply 'hmph'ed' Zach and averted her face to the side.
"Princess is sulking."
Zach opened the info tab and chose to read it himself. He scrolled to the shop system and came across the magic shop system.
'Shop points can be used to summon the magic shop. They can also be used to buy items from the magic shops.'
(Each summoning cost 500 points.)
'All of my quests require me to slay monsters. So let's go to the dungeon and clear more floors. I already have enough MP to finish the first two quests, and I can cultivate once I get back from the dungeon.'
Zach turned to Aurora, who was still pouting, and said, "We are going to the dungeon."
They then made their way to the dungeon.
'I will reach level 10 today and unlock my secondary class, no matter what happens.'

After reaching the dungeon, Zach turned to Aurora and said, "It's about time you stop pouting."
"I am not pouting," Aurora said as she averted her face to the side.
"Then stop sulking."
"I am not sulking." Aurora sighed and shook her head in frustration. There was nothing she could do. After all, It was her fault to expect something from Zach.
"So, from which floor do you want to start?" Aurora asked.
"Can we resume our last progress?" Zach asked with a surprised look on his face.
"Not exactly. But suppose you cleared five floors last time, so you can start from the sixth floor. If you cleared nine floors last time, then you need to start from the sixth floor," Aurora explained.
"So the boss floors are the checkpoint," Zach muttered. "Wait, does that mean I can use my solo dungeon progress in the mixed dungeon?"
Aurora nodded and said, "However, you can't use your mixed dungeon progress on the solo dungeon."
"Makes sense." Zach pondered for a while and glanced at Aurora from the corner of her eyes. "Before we go further, I want to ask you something," Zach uttered with a curious yet calm look on his face.
"What is it?"
"It's about the Classes."
"What about it? Do you want to ask which class is the best?"
"No. I might sound stupid to ask this, but I am curious about it."
"Go ahead and ask."
"Suppose, if a swordsman class player tried to use a bow or a gun, doesn't that mean the classes are useless?"
"They can indeed use any weapon they want, but that's only at the basic level. Once they reach level 5, they won't be able to equip any weapon other than the one that belongs to their respective class," Aurora answered sincerely.
"I thought so. But what about the sword? Sword is a default weapon, and it can be used by any Class player, right?"
"Yes. But they won't receive skills for using the weapon. Their stats for using the weapon won't increase."
Zach raised his brows and pondered for a while. 'I am a cultivator, but I can use swords. It's not as if cultivators can't use swords, but it's not beneficial for me. I can use sword-fighting as a backup combat style since it's not going to benefit me. However, I can't use any other weapon. I can learn spells by practicing, but that's not the efficient combat style. There will be enemies and monsters who won't let me cast the spell.'
Zach's eyes widened as he thought of a plan. 'What if… What if I become versatile? I already know how to use most of the weapons, so it doesn't matter what weapons I use. However, I know I won't get the skills of those weapons, but that doesn't matter. I will use my cultivation spells to amplify the weapon's stats temporarily.'
Once again, Zach had come up with a brilliant plan to use the weakness to his advantage. However, it wasn't as easy as he was making it out to be. But he had the benefit of infinite MP, so it wasn't impossible.
'I will have to learn enchantment techniques.'
Aurora snapped her finger to get Zach's attention. "Hey, bro! Are you there?" Aurora said in a different accent.
"... Don't call me bro," Zach said with a disgusted look on his face.
"Why not?"
"It sounds weird. And hearing 'bro' from your mouth makes me wanna puke," Zach remarked with an even more disgusted look on his face.
Aurora stared at Zach with a solemn look on her face. Then, she smirked and grinned with a smug look on her face. "I will be calling you Zach bro from now on."
Zach facepalmed himself and rubbed his hand on his face in frustration. He took a deep breath to calm himself and muttered, "Reasons why I hate girls. They do the very thing you told them not to do, and then they get on your nerves."
"Can we go now? Or else, I will go alone in the solo dungeon," Zach uttered and opened the portal.
"How many floors had you cleared in the solo dungeon?" Aurora asked and walked to the portal with Zach.
"10."
"So we will be starting with floor 11… sigh," she sighed.
"What's with the sigh? And how many floors had you cleared?" Zach asked with a hint of curiosity in his voice.
"34. That's where my two maids died," Aurora answered with a sad look on her face. "I didn't have any courage or mood to proceed further."
"So are you saying that 34 floors are enough for me to reach level 14 like you?"
"I got some EXP reward from my personalized quests. But yeah, 34 floors should be enough to reach level 13 at least."
Zach and Aurora entered the blue portal and proceeded to floor 11. Both of them grabbed their sword and stood in a defensive position.
"Let me warn you… don't you dare steal my kill," Aurora asserted.
"Right back at you. I will kill all the monsters I see, so if you don't want me to steal your kill, make sure to keep up with me." Zach scoffed. "Or maybe not, since that will help me get more EXP, and I will be able to level up faster."
Zach and Aurora had a significant advantage until floor 34, at least. Aurora knew what type of monsters would spawn on the following floors, and she was familiar with their attacks.
