章節 70: Sirius's Guess!
"I have no guarantee. It's just my personal conjecture..." Sirius said modestly.
"It's fine. Sirius, tell us about it first." The four girls didn't mind and eagerly asked him like students.
After seeing their expression, Sirius felt like a teacher and started explaining his conjecture.
"As far as I know, an adventurer can only increase their stats by training extensively or fighting a life-threatening battle. The more frequently an adventurer exercises and stresses their body, the greater the excelia gained to increase the stats."
"That is to say, in the face of an enemy in actual combat, the amount of excelia gained is actually determined by adventurer's own situation."
Sirius stated his opinion on the falna system. However, this is based on a normal situation. To level up, an adventurer has to do something outstanding.
However, not everyone can follow his thoughts.
"Uh, uh…"
Tiona and Tione listened to his words and nodded in confusion. They didn't understand anything at all.
Ais tilted her head cutely with a puzzled expression. Obviously, she also didn't learn anything.
Only Lefiya nodded with some hesitation. She understood his point and felt that it made some sense. She remembered seeing something similar somewhere in the past.
After a few seconds, Lefiya recalled.
'Isn't this similar to the answer that gods gave adventurers in the past?' Lefiya thought with some uncertainty.
'What does this have anything to do with getting stronger?' Lefiya didn't know what Sirius was trying to say.
After seeing their expression, Sirius felt depressed. It looked like such academic topics can only be discussed with knowledgeable people like Finn and Riveria.
This has nothing to do with strength but a pure gap in vision.
"Well, let me guess, you four girls came to me because you girls felt a significant decrease in the improvement of your basic stats, right?" Sirius narrowed his eyes and said.
"Except for the status update at the end of the expedition, your basic stats has hardly increased even though you visit the dungeon often, right?" Sirius tried guessing their thoughts.
He estimated that the basic stats of the four girls must have reached D-rank or above.
After the ability value exceeds D-rank, that is, 500 points, the increase rate will significantly slow down.
This is because the minimum requirement for level-up is fulfilled in this condition. Anything above D-rank is purely dependent on the adventurer's talent and effort.
If an adventurer wants to continue to improve their basic stats beyond D-rank, the process is challenging, especially if they want to raise it to S-rank.
Unless an adventurer has good talent or by virtue of their race, can an adventurer reaches this limit.
After hearing this, the four girls nodded irrefutably.
Indeed as Sirius guesses, their progress speed has slowed significantly compared to the past. Nowadays, unless it's an expedition, they hardly gain any increase in their stats.
No one has ever thought about why this happens. Everybody takes it for granted that it's a lack of challenge.
"Sirius-san…do you know the reason for this?" Lefiya looked at him in amazement.
"It's not hard to guess~ It's because the enemy's strength is getting weaker and weaker compared to the adventurer, so the excelia gained after defeating them is also getting smaller and smaller until it reaches a point where there is no significant gain…." Sirius expressed his opinion.
"Heh? Sirius, why are the enemies getting weaker and weaker? Aren't monsters the same every time we enter the dungeon?" Tiona was confused by his answer and asked. But, her sister rewarded her with a knock on her head.
"Stupid Tiona, Sirius said compared to the adventurer…We are getting stronger and stronger, but relatively the monsters are also getting weaker and weaker compared to us. Understand?" Tione also understood his point and explained.
"Oh~ I understand!" Although beaten, Tiona still smiled happily.
"In other words, if I want to continue to become stronger, I just have to challenge stronger opponents, right?" After thinking for a while, Ais realized his intention and looked at him in expectation.
"Uhm, Ais-san…Riveria-sama will not allow you to go to the deeper floors alone…." When Lefiya saw Ais's eager face, she hurriedly reminded.
At present, Ais often goes to the lower floors for training. She was only allowed to do so after persuading Loki and Riveria for a long time.
If Ais wanted to go to the deeper floors alone, Lefiya didn't think Loki and Riveria would give her permission.
It's too dangerous there. On deeper floors, the minimum level of monsters starts at level 4, and they come in groups. A solo adventurer can't withstand such pressure for an extended time.
When Ais heard Lefiya's reminder, she immediately became depressed.
She looked tangled like a child who wanted to go out and play but was rejected by her parents.
She wanted to sneak out but hesitated after thinking of the consequence.
When Tiona saw Ais's expression, she patted her chest to encourage her.
"It doesn't matter. We can accompany Ais together~ If it's not enough, we can pull a certain tsundere werewolf into our group!"
"...If Tiona and the others are there, maybe Riveria will allow me to go to the deeper floors…." Ais's expression gradually improved.
"Uh, this…" Lefiya didn't know what to say.
"Ahem, how about listening to me first? I'm telling you girls all this not to encourage you to go to the deeper floors every day." When Sirius saw them about to leave, he hurriedly stopped them.
"Huh? Isn't that what you mean?" The girls were confused.
"Of course not. I just want you to understand that the basic stats can improve only in the face of a powerful opponent or in a difficult situation. My original intention was not to let you go deeper into the dungeon…." Sirius hurriedly explained.
After hearing this, Tione looked at him in anticipation.
"Could it be… Sirius, do you have a way to allow us to face difficult situations while ensuring safety?" Tione asked.
"...Well, yeah. It has something to do with my magic…." Sirius rubbed his nose and said.
