The Supreme Level Up System

Despite the situation she was in, the witch didn't look even a bit worried. The blank expression never left her face, even when she tried to make the barrier disappear and failed… she was more aware of Sauros and Seris now, but she didn't look pissed. She looked more troubled than anything.

"She can still control the mana inside this place, so you will have to use physical attacks only," Sauros said. "Also, she is also consuming the mana of the barrier so that it won't last for more than five minutes."

"That will be plenty," Aion said and then charged.

Using her own mana, the witch summoned several blue swords and then stopped Aion's charge. Still, he kept using Triple Sonic Thrust, and the attacks began to crack her projectiles. Upon noticing that things would be bad if she continued like that, she summoned ten more swords and made them fly toward Aion.

By using Quick Sweep several times, Aion blocked those weapons while also damaging them a bit. The Swords that the witch used to block Aion's advance began to crack as well. Aion made all of his energy explode in a single moment, including all the energy in his cores. He became a blur for a moment while attacking the swords. Eventually, they began to fall apart, and the witch was left defenseless… she didn't try to escape… so Aion just stabbed her heart.

The witch didn't smile, but she disappeared while showing an expression of relief… Aion didn't know why, but he felt that she left knowing that someone worthy of the final relic had come to claim it, but maybe that was just his imagination.

"That was the witch that helped your ancestor… what a fearsome adversary," Sauros said.

"These last battles had been a bit weird… it felt like… the enemies weren't trying to kill us, so it is hard to hate them," Seris said while frowning. "I guess I prefer to fight and defeat those that hate… the fact that the monsters and people here died a long time ago is also troubling."

"Naturally, but things can never be that simple…" Sauros said. "Anyway, you got hurt being reckless again…"

​ "Be quiet," Aion said and then sat down to heal himself.

It wasn't like Aion liked to get hurt, but taking some bits sometimes was the best way to force the enemy to show an opening. In any case, two down and three to go… the archer will definitely be the next enemy, and then the real troublesome ones will be left.

"What do you guys know about their abilities?" Aion asked.

"Nothing… absolutely nothing," Sauros replied. "Only those that fought with them know their skills and their enemies, I guess."

"That is rather ominous…" Aion said.

Ominous and troublesome… Aion didn't want to face them without knowing what they could do. Still, he at least knew that the god that vanished was supposed to be a swordsman. As for the relic that will have the image of his ancestor… it won't be useful to alert him since he will have to defeat her before that can happen.

After healing his wounds, Aion waited for the others to recover their mana. Staying in the tower for only five days didn't seem like a long time, but Aion wanted to defeat his ancestor and the other guy the next day and defeat the archer on that day. Sauros and Seris couldn't help but sigh when they realized what he was thinking.

"It must be nice being young and full of energy," Sauros said.

"I think that we are pretty young ourselves. He just has too much energy," Seris said.

After a while, the group began to move again. Although their pace was quite Spartan, Seris and Sauros couldn't complain since they barely moved and only used their weapons a couple of times. Aion felt thankful for that. At some point, he wondered if they would have to face some swarms of monsters. He was also thankful that he never voiced those concerns to jinx the group.

Poisonous Strike: a technique that combines the power of your strength and magic to cause a lot of damage over time. The poison damage will last for ten seconds, and it will be equal to the level of the technique multiplied by two.

"Hmm… when it comes to fighting, spears have the upper hand in terms of range against swords, but I don't know what kind of sword that guy will use," Aion thought. "Perhaps the guardian class would be more effective… but my offensive ability was going to decrease."

Aion began to think about a battle plan against the swordsman of that group of five heroes… even though they hadn't even defeated the archer yet. He also considered fighting some enemies and making the demonic Berserker class level up, but that seemed like a waste… in any case, those worries disappeared when the group reached the eightieth floor…

Aion showed up while ready to unleash his best attack yet at the enemy, and he did it when the enemy showed up. However, the hooded archer pointed his weapon and nocked an arrow in a fraction of a second before firing it. The entire structure trembled, and when the dust settled… Aion saw the enemy completely unscathed.
