The Taming Master Chapter 560

-Syarlon's Errands (Hidden)

In the old village of Pneuma, there is a 'Martial arts Dojo' to practice for self-improvement .

The name of the place is 'Spirit Dojo' .

The Spirit Dojo is an age-old heritage of the Goral and is a place that gives them huge pride .

Ian who had read all the contents of the quest which he had received from Syarlon, headed in the direction of the Pneuma Village .

The newly obtained quest, it wasn't sure how much time it would be taking for a clear, but Ian wanted to finish it as soon as possible so it wouldn't interfere with the hunting schedule .

'By the way, I got to know some interesting facts with the quest . '

The Kailan's view of the world was so great, that it really went well with the game .

What it meant was, even a small NPC with a little role—had an edge of their own—and stories of their own .

And because of such minor information that could be received from the quest, even though it wasn't so useful right away, it would still be efficient in the future .

And in the quest, Ian's 'minor' information had two points .

First one, it could be said that the spirit guardian race of Syarlon, who had huge horns on their heads were called—Goral .

Secondly, the spirit guardian which had been referred to as Syarlon wasn't a position for him alone, but for a user too .

'Information which might help someday . '

Ian nodded while trying to make himself remember these things in mind .

And while reading the quest, Ian was able to reach the village of Pneuma .

'Kay, I think it was around this way…'

Ian found out the Spirit Dojo without much difficulty .

And it was because the size of the Pneuma village wasn't so huge .

Krrk- krrk-!

When Ian pushed open the handle on the door, the sound of the old wood creaking started to ring .

And inside, Ian found an NPC guarding at the counter .

“I want to go into the dojo, how am I supposed to do it?”

Similar to Syarlon, but a lot younger than Syarlon, the NPC looked at Ian thoroughly .

It wasn't much difficult for Ian to know that he belonged to the Goral race .

“If you can pay 500 asters, I'll give you a ticket . ”

“That so . ”

“By the way, this is my first time seeing you… first time to a dojo?”

“Ah yeah . This is my first time here . ”

“Then, there are a few things I need to explain about this . ”

“Explain…?”

“Yes . I will explain it to the first-timers who come in here, so the information I give will turn out to be useful when challenging the dojo . ”

“Ah…”

“And there is a need for the information giving too . In case one doesn't know about it, it can be dangerous in time of the challenge . ”

At the end of the talk of the NPC, a old parchment paper came into the hands of the NPC .

As he unfolded the parchment, he looked at it from the top to the bottom .

And handed it over to Ian .

Ian began to read about the contents in the paper with a lot of anticipation, and the parchment paper did indeed have interesting things to say .

Challenging Instructions:

First, the dojo consists of 100 floors, and each of the floor has to be challenged one after the other .

Each time a floor is conquered, a special reward and a 'Hero score' will be provided .

*Special rewards can be only earned on the first conquest, and Hero score can be earned through the repeated challenges . (Hero Score can be exchanged at the entrance of the Dojo for a transcendence box . )

*When the first conquest is done, double rewards are received .

Secondly, there won't be death when challenging the dojo but will be summoned outside of the Dojo .

*There is a chance to lose fame if the level of transcendence is too low .

Third, a party with three can challenge the dojo, and the difficulty will increase according to the increase of the members .

Fourth, on the 15th, 30th, 70th, 90th floors, you will meet the 'Dojo master', and if you can win against the master, you will get a transcendence gearbox right away . (Challenging the same master more than that can't be done)

In addition, if you win against the master, you can try to take up the dojo from the very beginning if you want to re-challenge .

*If you win against the 99th floor dojo master, you will be able to enter the 100th floor which opens only once a day .

Fifth (Attention!), if you challenge a duel with another challenger(s), you will battle out with the challenger first .

And if you win over the battle, naturally, you will be declared to have cleared the floor, but if you lose, you will be summoned to the front of the dojo .

*On the contrary, if you are attacked by the other challengers during your dojo battle (On being attacked, the existing battle will be paused and the vitality lost due to the dojo battle won't be restored) .

*If more than one challenger is dueling, you need to wait until the duel ends .

*The challenger can be either a 'User' or an 'NPC' .

*All the information of the other challengers will not be revealed (Level, class, etc . ) . the number in the party and the remaining vitality won't be revealed either, so be careful when challenging the other challengers .

“Wah, what is the number of the tries?”

“Well, I gave up counting after the 10th floor try…”

Ralph, Inisco, and Chesk .

The trio had already been killed by the Spirit Dojo for three days straight .

Ralph's other party members were not fine with it and went back to the Human system everyday, but the other three of them had been trying to do it for the purpose of clearing it .

And the reason why they have been so stubborn wasn't difficult to comprehend .

The reason why they have been trying so far was due to the Dojo master they get to meet after the 14th floor .

And if they manage to win against him, 'Transcendence gearbox' was the reward that they would be getting .

The rewards till the 13th floor weren't bad, but all of them were the miscellaneous items or the materials .

However, the reward on the 15th floor was a gearbox .

A reward that had to be obtained .

In addition, unlike the situation where all the rest of the group didn't even reach the 10th floor, the three-member party was barely failing the 14th .

If this wasn't a greedy situation, they couldn't have been called as the rankers of Kailan .

But after the major announcement had been done, the three started to get a bit nervous .

“Ralph, why don't we just stop over now?”

“Yeah, Ralph hyung . Chesk hyung is right . It is great enough that we came till the 14th floor . Even if we don't go till the 15th floor…”

“Yeah . We need to level up the transcendence from the moment . I don't even know how long it will take for us to shoot up to the level of 10 . It will be easier if we come here with a level 10 and take the challenge . ”

But with the persuasive tactics of Chesk and Inisco, Ralph glared at them .

And Ralph wasn't the kind who would give up the transcendence gearbox so easily .

'Uh, we were very close to obtaining it…'

Surely, even if they didn't win over the dojo master, they would still get the transcendence gearbox .

They could buy one with the Hero Score .

But the problem was the price to get the box was pretty nasty .

'1st floor 1 point, 2nd floor 2 points… what time would I collect 10,000?'

There were a total of 10 types of transcendence gearboxes sold at the entrance of the dojo .

However, even the lowest rate gearbox had to be purchased with 10,000 points .

And the score that Ralph's group had obtained after non-stop hard work was 1,500 .

In the future, the more they went higher, the higher the possibilities of them to buy the lowest rate box .

Ralph took a deep breath and slowly opened his mouth,

“Phew… even I know that . But… but isn't this a bit too disappointing?”

“I understand that…”

“It sure is, but this is already our third time . ”

A moment of silence between the three .

And after a while, Ralph spoke again,

“Let's do it one last time, really . ”

“I wouldn't have been so obsessed with this if we weren't the first challengers . ”

Ralph bit his lip and looked at both Inisco and Chesk .

After a short sigh, both of them responded,

“Well… Ralph, you do make some ridiculous sense . When we get the first clear reward, it'll get us two gearboxes, which would mean that it is a time well spent . ”

“Uhuh, sure is a bit…”

Both Inisco and Chesk looked at each other .

After a second, they faced Ralph and nodded .

Chesk was the first to say,

“Okay, Ralph, let's do it just one last time . ”

Inisco shook his head and spoke,

“Let's burn our souls till the end this time, Ralph hyung . There was a lot of content which had been stolen away by the other guys, so let's pre-empt this one too . ”

Ralph clenched his fists and agreed with them .

“Nice! Let's get this done!”

The three men were able to enter the same opinion and discussed about their last battle .

And in a moment, they entered the Dojo again .

At this point, however, the three didn't know .

That their single decision they took at the moment, would really burn down their mental strength to the core .
