The other nine individuals were already dealt with.
[Current progress: 69/69 Items found.]
He had also obtained all the remaining items hidden all around the Cathedral one by one.
'Haaa…'
It was exhausting work. Many of the items weren't easy to obtain either.
He had to solve complex puzzles, he had to find differences between near identical images, and he had to solve riddles carved on the walls.
Had it not been for Unity's recovery skill, he would not have been able to quickly wrap these things up in such a short time.
[Time left until the dungeon closes: 00:30:03.]
Even though he knew the location of all the items, and the techniques to get them, he was sure there would be slight differences in the actual things from what he knew about.
He knew some of the puzzles were time-consuming as well so instead of going through them one by one, he speed-ran through all that content.
It wasn't proper from the perspective of an entertainer or streamer, but he needed to get his hands on everything that was present here.
He didn't leave the Spirit guardians alone either.
[{ The traps worked, master~. }]
Using Unity as bait again, he lured the spirit guardians into different areas of the dungeon where he had already set up the golden Strings of death.
As soon as the evil spirits passed through these strings, as if walking right into a well, or falling to a Chainsaw, their entire bodies were split as easily as some (Level-1) monsters.
The guardians did not even realize that they had lost their lives until they had become Spirit Orbs and had fallen to the ground.
[{ "Oho~! Look at this loot~!" }]
Ultimately, KiRA obtained around thirty Spirit orbs, an amount that no other challenger of this dungeon could have imagined.
[{ "The title's effects are excellent, Uni~!" }]
[{ Yei~! }]
He couldn't help his excitement at the loot. Even his level had increased by two in the time he had worked in this dungeon.
He didn't have to deal with the Mobs either. He did his work while the monsters walked into their own deaths, giving him free 'extra' experience points as well as more loot than usually possible.
'It's great~!'
He was now standing before a wall on the top floor of the Cathedral. This wasn't his destination, the top floor, but this surely was the path that led to where he was going.
'Once we get the final piece, we should be good to go.'
Since he had obtained the rest of the items and almost all of the mobs were cleared as well, he looked into his MiniMap and concluded that the rest of the players had already left the dungeon.
'We should have enough time, but I should still hurry.'
There wasn't much time left before the dungeon crumbled down.
This entire building was going to be destroyed once the dungeon vanished since that's how it used to be in the game.
The government officials, along with the two naughty assassins, the twins who left before them, and the woman with a sword were already outside with only KiRA left in this dungeon.
'They were unsure what hit them or how they fell unconscious so it seems like it worked.'
A sudden shock to the body's vulnerable areas directly affects the mind and body– it was a complex technique that he couldn't perform in the real world previously. But, things are different now.
"Phew. Alright then." He still had one more thing to take care of, so he looked at the wall, placed his hand on it, and closed his eyes.
'Remember…'
The wall was special. In fact, this wasn't actually a wall but a special barrier.
'His name… his full name… St Luen Matthew De Vegno Pullev. He served as the Saint of Ezlyn, the proxy of goddesses of light and purity for seven decades of his life.'
Born as a prominent noble, he gave up his noble title after seeing the sadness and evil hiding within the world and vowed to serve the goddess until the day he took his last breaths.
'This cathedral represents his will, his life… as well as his Regrets.'
As he remembered those things as if answering some kind of a question from someone, the entire wall lit up brightly as bricks started vanishing one by one.
-Ooooooooooong!
Only a moment later, the wall was gone and a staircase connecting another floor above became visible to the player and his companion.
"Let's go…"
He found out about this place after spending two in-game years challenging the tower.
He had crossed many floors within that time, almost reaching the top floors of that time, the early twenties of the floors.
The process was unbearably harsh, but after he found this place and saw things present here, his entire playstyle changed for good…
"It looks the same, at least." A look of relief appeared on him as soon as he saw the room present before him.
It looked the same, it still smelled old, the only light here was the light of the outside world coming from the glass covered dome, and the furniture was the same as well.
In the middle of the old room stood a Holy sculpture, a divine idol of the Goddess of Light and Purity, glowing with a unique holy light that mesmerized anyone looking at it.
[Ding!]
[You have entered the hidden area: Personal chamber of St Pullev.]
[Ding!]

[You are qualified for the Succession ritual!]

[Upon changing your class, you will be granted the following: ]

[Unique stat: Holy power will replace the Energy stat.]
[Stats and Level will be reset. At the same time, the Strength of the existing stats will improve proportionally to the lost stats.]
[Other features of the class and Class skills will be displayed after the class change.]
There was a reason he took all the other items and the personal scripture of the saint with him before coming here.
This place, the personal chambers that belonged to the late saint, was his final resting spot before he went to the battlefield and became one with nature.
Many things present here, a lot of things actually, were of great value.
Being distracted by the statue and losing track of the main goal, profits, would be easy in such a place.
But KiRA didn't falter before this grand display.
First of all, he picked up everything of value in the place, searched for anything new or unusual from the game, ransacked almost the entire room not even leaving the old furniture, and after finishing all this, he finally gazed at the statue in the middle.
"The offer is great and all, but I'll pass on this. Thanks."
Turning around, KiRA was simply going to leave the room and the opportunity to change into the very first and practically unknown Legendary class, but he was blocked by a… unique presence.
[Ding!]
[Warning!] [Warning!]
[A higher being has made a connection with their Holy Idol!]
[You have been exposed to Divinity!]

[All movements will be restricted!]
He could not move his body anymore.]
[Ding!]
[System has detected an anomaly!]
[Ding!]
⟪ The Governance of Causality will shift to a broader spectrum to analyze the current scenario! ⟫
The 'voice' of the system that one rarely hears rang in his mind once again.
[Ding!]

[Under the Laws of Causality, ID: KiRA and [Goddess of Light and Purity (S)] will be observed for the procured time.]
[Time remaining: 02:55.]
He knew what was happening. This right here was his goal from the beginning.
What happens from now on will decide whether he gets what he was after or not.
'Haaaa.'
He had faith in his past, practice, as well as the system. He knew he could succeed… However, should he fail here, he knew there would be no 'reset' to this turn of his life.
