Chapter 255: Chapter 255 Rewards.



A translucent window appeared in front of their eyes, and the body of the Golem started to crumble, leaving only a blue mana core along with the other mana core that scattered across the field.

Hina and Xiao Lian, who act as the main stars, looked at the notification before their eyes with dumbfounded expressions on their faces.

With trembling fingers, they rechecked the text.

"We succeed".

"Mm, we are".

Both of them exchanged glances, and slowly, as the truth began to seep into their mind, they parted their lips in pleased aura. Hina and Xiao Lian shrunken their distance together and clapped each other's palms, doing high five.

"Good job you two".

Soma, who saw them getting friendly, felt happy about their growth as a person. Suppose the two of them can maintain this level of friendship and respect. Both of them, without a doubt, will reach the summit faster than the other.

The girls were overjoyed, but when they heard Soma's voice, it brought them to reality once more. They remembered that the last monster that appeared was handled mainly by Soma, and Hina only gave her last attack to gain the experience for her growth.

A sense of understanding began to sprout between the girls, and with sullen expression, they approached Soma, giving him trouble by pinching his waist, which was hard to get.

"Can you guys stop being flirty in this place?".

Serafina, who finally descends to the ground, approaches the group, grumbling, seeing the three of them bonding. Lucy and Violet also approached when all of the parties were gathered.

All of the mana core that scattered across the ground, shone. It began to gather in one place and spawned a silver and two bronze treasure boxes precisely in the middle of the room.

"Wow, it's a treasure box".

"Mm, let's open it!".

"Wait girls, Violet, is there a trap in it?".

"No, you can relax young lady".

After learning that there was no trap within the box, Hina and Xiao Lian began to approach the boxes. With elated expressions on their faces, each of them opened the bronze box.

As it creaked open, the contained golden light burst outside. Their faces gleamed in joy and anticipation. The inside of the box was full of gold and jewelry. There is nothing worth noting besides wealth.

Then, both of them opened the silver box together. The silver box was twice the size of the bronze, and Soma, who experienced in opened it multiple times, was convinced that something good would be contained in it.

"Woah".

"?!".

Aside from the gold and jewels, there are many potion vials and also parchment that contains unknown scripture. It can be a magic scroll or even a skill.

"Okay, I think that's all. What should we do, Silver hair?".

"Let's take all of them and divide it later".

"Okay, Soma can you please?".

"No problem".

Hina and Xiao Lian store each bronze chest, then for the Silver box, they decide to divide it later and let Soma store it in his spare ring.

"Can you guys let me do the mana core?".

For the mana core, they will let Serafina deal with it.

"Now, everyone, let's go back to the house. We already stayed too long in the dungeon".

Serafina claps her hand, bringing all the attention toward her. As they were on the way home, Lucy still hadn't released the buff on Hina and Xiao Lian. At first, Hina asked to be released, but once she knew the effect of the first-timer, she decided to be on hold in that regard.

On the way home, they avoided every fight, which gave them a lot more composure and reached the surface faster. Once outside, the group could see the orange sky that enveloped the sky of Rome.

The fatigue from the exploration disperses as they breathe the clear air from the outside world. The feeling of a warm wind that brushed their body gave them solace that loosened their tensed body.

Serafina began to contact the people in her house and tell them to pick them up in the town square. Not long after the call a black limousine drove off in front of them and opened the passenger seat which will bring them home.

While inside the luxurious seat, the junior girl, especially Hina, collapsed because of the after-effect of Lucy's blessing; currently, she was resting her head on Soma's shoulder.

Xiao Lian, who also sits beside Soma, does the same, making him lose his freedom.

"Sera, did you bring the appraisal item that time?".

"Hm? Yeah why?".

"Can you accompany me tonight? There is something I need to see".

"No problem. Let's meet at the terrace".

"Okay".

After that, no one in the place speaks. The car drove quietly, giving a sense of serenity that made everyone's eyelids feel heavy.

Serafina and Lucy also sat side by side, leaning their heads against each other in slow breathing. Hina and Xiao Lian had also gone to their dream earlier.

The only ones still awake were Soma Violet and the driver. Without anything to do, Soma began to divide his consciousness and circulate his mana calmly.

***

Night came, and Soma, who had already asked Serafina something, got up from his bed. He donned his usual long-sleeved black T-shirt and short beige pants, approaching the door.

However, his body twitched in shock when he opened the door, and Serafina was there raising his back palm.

"Sera? Are we going to meet at the terrace?".

"Um, Y-yeah, about that. Can we do it here? In your room I mean?".

Seeing the fidgeting Serafina in front of him made Soma knit his brow in wonder. He felt it was weird seeing her usual mischievous side when in front of him gone and just meekly being polite.

"Okay, no problem with me".

Soma stepped to the side, leaving a way for Serafina to come in. With a stiff face, Serafina entered his room, and with a hurried pace, she sat on top of the bed.

Looking at her appearance, wearing thin sleepwear and without underwear, stimulates Soma's instinct to jump at her, but luckily, he has a skill that could help him in that regard, so he will deal with this situation calmly. Besides, he doesn't know about this sudden situation, about her current change.

Soma closed the door of the room, took the chair near the window, and let him sit in front of Serafina.

Seeing Soma calmly sit in front of her made her even more stiffened compared to usual. Soma, who noticed it, tried to ignore it and started the conversation.

"Can I borrow it for a moment?".

"Um, Oh, right. The appraisal".

Serafina hurriedly took the monocle from her storage ring and presented it to Soma. From their touched fingers, Serafina's face started to blush so hard, and she kept stealing glances at Soma, who had already gone to his own world, holding a new item she had never seen.

The item was a necklace made from gold and imbued with an emerald gem on its head. She saw Soma lost in thought, probably reading the item detail. Looking at his attitude and nature, she felt so much remorse and guilt about the thing she wanted to say. "Should I tell him?".

[Emerald Necklace(Legend): An Item worn by the great Sage Antony who governs over the sky.

-It has a passive skill that will give one additional level to mana manipulation and Wind magic (+1)

-It can grant the user a wind barrier(passive) without exerting mana.

-It has a skill that can summon Wrath of Zephyr(Great storm), an ultimate spell of wind magic that can level up a city. Cooldown time of skill one year.

It gives the user additional stats Intelligence +200 and agility +150]

Soma sweated after reading the last skill the necklace gave. The item was tilted toward a wind wizard, which left one person in his party who specialized in that.

He stored the first item before taking the other item, the Bracelet. Unlike earlier, it was made from silver and had a neutral gem embedded in it.

[Bracelet of control(epic)X2: A bracelet that will give the user a passive skill: one additional level on Mana manipulation and one level for their respective magic. Come as a set, and the effect can be stacked if the user uses both of them]

All of the items he got from the trial earlier were incredible. He could give the Bracelet to Hina and Xiao Lian later. As for the necklace, he looked toward Serafina, who still couldn't get out of her restless vibes. "It seemed the wrong time to ask her," he said.

"Sera here, thank you for that".

"Um, Eh, it's already over. Okay".

She received the monocle with a crestfallen look on her face. Soma keeps observing her for a while before sighing.

"Look, I don't know what is on your mind, but clearly you didn't have enough resolve to do it, at least for now".

"...Wh-what are you…".

"For now let's settle down for a while and when the time comes, you are ready to say it to me, then…".

"Wait, wait, why are you saying things so heavy and misleading at the same time? It wasn't like that at all".

"What then? Why didn't you act differently from how you used to be?".

"That was…".

Being pressed by Soma made Serafina's body shrink back a little bit; she regulated her breathing to calm her distressed heart and then faced Soma head-on.

"...You know that when we had promised to meet on the terrace earlier. I slipped in front of my mother earlier and then with an excited gleam in her eyes, she began to pressure me to meet in your room instead and order the servants to lock the door that will lead us to the terrace".

"That's it?".

"Um, I'm sorry for being restless all around. Even for one my mother is probably smirking in the room, Imagining us together".

"...Quite the mischievous mother you have".

"She is truly".

Soma almost retorted to her words now, but seeing the current Serafina, he swallowed his tongue and instead started some small conversation, trying to lessen the awkward atmosphere around them.

Time passed, and the two of them had a great conversation.

"I think that was enough. Sorry, for disturbing you in your room".

"Nothing, I should be thankful for the item".

The truth is that Soma still had many things he wanted to appraise, but the time was not right, so he held the other for later.

"Thanks, Soma, good night".

"Good night, Sera".

Soma saw Serafina figure closing the door in his room with a thud, and after being left alone, the womanly scent that still lingered across the room entered his nose and it broke his line of thought.

"Is it truly just that, you are coming here?".
