Chapter 1101




Rachel was hiding something!

It was almost certain . Based on the words she just said and how quickly she left; all signs were telling Kieran exactly that .

However, Kieran couldn't force an answer out of her and the reason was simple: Lawless .

"This is why I prefer to be alone . "

Kieran muttered to himself . He too stood up and went back to the inn .

Back the inn, Lawless was already there with his signature cigar in his mouth whilst he showed off the "one man drinking" challenge .

22 bottles of different alcohols lined up under the light . The various kinds of bottles were surprisingly emanating a beautiful shine .

Under the crowd's loud cheers, Lawless started his drinking challenge from the one on the most left .

It was the special entertainment of Harvest Inn .

Anyone who successfully challenged the "one man drinking" game would not have to pay for the alcohol they drank and could even win a prize of 1000 Points .

However, since the challenge started, no one had ever succeeded, even the Alchemist, Lemour who was an expert in drinking could only last till the 19th bottle before passing out .

As for Lawless?

He was already crawling under the table at the 11th bottle .

"N-Next time, I will succeed!"

Heavily drunk, Lawless stuttered his declaration before he passed out .

"Yeah, yeah!"

"Lawless, you sure will!"



"But you have to pay for this round first!"

"Hahahahahaha!"

The crowd laughed merrily . Everyone was cheering in joy .

None of them were ill-intended though, they were only using this kind of method to vent their stress and nervousness before entering the dungeon world or discard the uneasy feeling after returning from one .

Kieran could tell from their faces despite them being blurred out by the system .

Lawless could as well, and because of that, he challenged the "one man drinking" time after time .

He was using his own way to make his friends around him a little bit happier .

Although it looked stupid to Kieran, he wouldn't allow his friend to pass out under the table .

Kieran grabbed the back of Lawless' neck and threw him onto a chair .

He couldn't help but frown at Lawless who was completely drunk and couldn't even maintain consciousness .

"Are you dumb?" Kieran said softly .

Lawless' act in Kieran's view was like a child trying to make fun of himself in order to blend into the bigger crowd .

The child would laugh together with the crowd and eventually be accepted as one of them .

Children were pure, it was hard to tell which part of their viewpoint was wrong, therefore it was easier to deal with children .

Correct was correct, wrong was wrong .

However, adults were different . Adults had too many conflicts of interest whether in the open or secretly .

So, adults tended to not determine the right or wrong of a matter, instead, they would view it from their own perspective, to determine whether the matter would benefit them or not .




If the matter benefited them, it would be right; if the matter couldn't, it would be wrong .

If it was right, they would continue; if it was wrong, they would correct it with their own means .

Those who clamored about right and wrong were nothing but some big children in their own world who didn't possess the strength to correct the things .

Kieran didn't want to become a big child, nor he was willing to see Lawless becoming one .

. . .

2567: When will Lawless' treatment start?

Rachel: A little bit more .


2567: Tell me if you need help .

Rachel: K .

. . .

Kieran pointed at Lawless and signaled to Rachel further away .

After she nodded, Kieran turned away and walked out of the inn .

Behind him, Lawless who could barely maintain his consciousness seemed to have spotted Kieran, he muttered, "2-2567? A-Anything I can help you with?"

It was soft but heard by Kieran's sharp ears .

Kieran stopped . He turned around and muttered in a serious tone, "Not now, take a good rest . "

He then turned away once more and left .

Lawless then went on snoring as Kieran left Harvest Inn .

. . .

Back at 13th Wallway Street, Kieran was back after taking care of his problems in real life .

[Points: 10,000; Skill Points 25; Golden Skill Points: 4; Golden Attribute Points: 4]

Looking at his points tab, Kieran slightly changed the original plan of leveling the few skills that required Golden Skill Points .

First, he didn't think the news about divine beings would cost him so much .

Second, he never thought the news was somehow related to the Character Template Limit again .

"So Golden Skill Points and Golden Attribute Points have become the key to the higher order before rank V?"

Although Kieran knew a while ago how precious those two currencies were, Rachel's words just now made him understand even more how precious they were .

The only fortunate thing was, Kieran, didn't need to hesitate on whether to level up his skills or keep the points for rainy days .

For the potential changes in his Talents and Origin Forces, Kieran tended to take them seriously more than the skills in his arsenal .

"Wonder where my second Character Template Limit is?"

Kieran then turned to his attribute tab .

Strength: SS+

Agility: SS+

Constitution: ZZZ- (New I)

Spirit: G+ (Pre III)

Intuition: SSS+

His highest stat was Spirit which was approaching rank III, his Strength and Agility were the lowest but still far exceeded common players .

Without further hesitation, Kieran poured his points into leveling his Spirit attribute again .

Whether was it the original plan or the altered one, Spirit attribute became the priority attribute that Kieran had to level up .

Kieran was never stingy in forging his best sword .

[Using Golden Attribute Points…]

[Spirit G+ → GG- (Pre III)]

[Using Golden Attribute Points…]

[Spirit GG- → GG (New III)]

[Using Golden Attribute Points…]

[Spirit GG → GG+ (New III)]

[Using Golden Attribute Points…]

[Spirit GG+ → GGG- (New III)]

. . .

"New III eh?"

"Based on Rachel's estimate, Great Swamp's usual form is ranked around IV, considering the ace he might use during battle, there might be a 1 to 2 rank jump . Meanwhile Perforation Stab's God planned so far ahead to target Great Swamp, obviously, they didn't have the power to face Great Swamp in person . Judging from that, that God must be around rank III to rank IV, it's quite unlikely they would be over rank V…"

"If I can get myself into a battlefield that benefits me…"

Kieran calculated quietly as he squinted his eyes .

Meticulous calculations were occurring in his mind .

At the very same time, outside the clock tower dome, a figure was slowing approaching .
