Chapter 254: Back At It

Flying to the end of his tunnel, Lake saw the water was still pouring in but he was tired of waiting and after taking out his long sword he started digging again. He had stopped on the way to see if he could break the barrier but Detector had said he could but it would be dangerous so he had decided he would be better off digging and risking a collapse.

He was sure he could survive a simple collapse and a big one should be slow enough that he could get out of the way as long as he was paying attention. Right after having this thought Lake remembered he had a knife again and took it out and threw it up while Crunch was active. After letting it fly for a while Lake walked over and stuck his hand near the hole to see if he could feel any air.

It was a long shot but Lake knew it was possible for him to find out if he was close to the surface like this. Not feeling a draft Lake thought maybe the stuff his knife had pushed out of the way had just filled in the hole again making it so he couldn't tell. Taking an arrow out this time Lake made a Magic arrow and let it fly upwards.

With his mana in the arrow he was able to feel it so he was able to know if it was passing through air or ground unlike with the knife. When he was flying the arrow up Lake took the chance to use Retrieve on his knife before he forgot and put it back in the sheath on his leg. After a while of flying the arrow up Lake could tell he was just wasting his time and recalled the arrow and started digging.

It was obvious he had either overestimated how close he was or that he was digging up into the bottom of a mountain and flying the arrow was just a distraction he needed to forget about and just dig until he couldn't anymore. He had to stop wasting time even if he felt like it was the right thing to do to be safe.

...

Looking ahead and seeing the walls of the city coming up Tiff couldn't wait to get inside but ended up stopping when she saw something moving towards her in one of the fields. Looking over at the Temple Head who had also stopped to get a look at the thing that was trimming down the overgrown fields of their weeds Tiff said. "Is that a golem farming?"

Her main reason to do this was the same as why she wanted to run away though so her ultimate goal of saving her friends was the same. It was just that now the way she could make sure they wouldn't die was by taking their place in the biggest fights. Of course fighting would have the benefit that she could get more Divine cores from giants they killed.

After a few there would most likely be a few more members in the 23 that got the same treatment that she did. She could already see the God of Light making Dawn the next person to get the Imitation job since he had said she was his second choice. He seemed interested in seeing how the job did so she wasn't sure if he would give it to anyone else until she had unlocked all the skills and tested them.

Realizing she had never asked how many skills there were in this job Tiff made a note to ask next time. Legendary jobs didn't always follow the normal rules so there might be more than four by the time she made it to level ten and ten might not be the actual limit. It would all depend on the way the God of Light had made the job to act.

She guessed it might have been a good thing if it had taken slightly longer for the bestowal to finish because it would have given her longer to be told what to expect from the job. She was sure the God of Light had other things to do and just took the fact it had taken a second as a good sign and sent her on her way to do her first mission.

There wasn't actually a lot she needed to know yet and maybe the God of Light had decided to wait to tell her till after she was strong enough to not get captured since she would be able to give them intel on the new job he had designed. If they got her at the moment all they would get is its name if they could get it out of her and it didn't even sound like a real job.

She guessed she would know the next time they talked but until then she needed to get some sleep so she would actually be able to sit through the long information gathering session she would have to do tomorrow. It sounded interesting if you put it that way but it would most likely be her staring at the door for a day with almost nothing happening.

It would be similar to what she had done to find the dagger the first time but she wasn't going to attack Jon this time once she found him. She had realized trying to kill him the first time was a big mistake and it was because she had mistaken him for an enemy when in reality he didn't even seem to want the dagger anymore like she had expected him to.

It was probably because he had come to realize only those that could use Holy mana could actually do anything with it and it had become a liability to own instead of the ultimate weapon he had assumed it to be when he stole it. She also needed to tell the Temple Head about Jon after she found him again since he had a skill that would allow the Temple to hide Holy mages.

He was a good person for them to look into hiring even if it was just a few times. The Temple always had a hard time when they had to move people that the Demon Worshipers wanted to kill and it made it so lots of people had to live their whole life inside a single Temple out of fear they would die as soon as they went outside.The source of this content is N0veII_bIn
