Belle Morwyn's beautiful face was lit up with excitement.
"You look really happy this time, don't you?" Aurora asked with a smile.
Belle Morwyn nodded eagerly.
"Yes, sister! I got an SS rating! Just from Samsara points alone, I earned 24,000! And there were other rewards too!"
Even Aurora couldn't help but feel a tinge of envy.
24,000 Samsara points!
With her current strength, she might not earn that much even after completing an entire dungeon run.
And that wasn't counting the item rewards!
"We'll talk about the details later," Aurora said. "Tell me first—how did Shura help you clear the dungeon? How did you two manage to kill that many symbiotes?"
"Sis, you won't believe how strong Shura is!"
Belle Morwyn's eyes sparkled as she mentioned his name.
"You'd never guess where he took me after—we actually went straight to the symbiote planet! He found their home base and took me there to farm them!"
"What!?"
Aurora was stunned.
She'd had a vague suspicion, but hearing her sister confirm it made her truly realize just how terrifying Shura's abilities were.
He actually wiped out the symbiote's nest?
Too savage!
Just then, the system announcement echoed in the air:
"Attention all Samsara players: The Samsara Space will close in 5 minutes."
Both Aurora and Belle heard it clearly.
"You're free tomorrow, right, Belle? Come see me."
"Okay, sis, got it!"
"Alright. We'll talk more when we meet."
Dear Samsara "Shura", you have completed the task. Your rewards are as follows:
Samsara Points: 40,000
Oxygen Mask x1 (Special item – stored in your personal warehouse)
Riot Gloves x1 (Special item – stored in your personal warehouse)
Golden Treasure Box x1 (Stored in your personal warehouse)
Fenric was quite satisfied with the system rewards.
Two special items!
Now the only question was—what would the Golden Treasure Box contain this time?
"Attention all Samsara: The Samsara Space will close in 5 minutes."
Hearing the countdown from the system, Fenric decided to check his rewards later and logged off first.
Back in the real world.
Fenric calmly reviewed the mission in his mind.
All in all, the results were excellent—after all, he received a Super God rating.
But...
There were a few loose ends.
For example, Riot was still alive, and the spaceship hadn't been destroyed.
The Earth in that world would likely suffer later, wouldn't it?
Of course, that wasn't Fenric's problem.
Maybe after he left, the Samsara system reset that world.
Smiling to himself, Fenric dismissed the thought and drifted off to sleep.
The dungeon had been relaxing in the beginning, but the final stretch was truly exhausting.
At least for now, the "Venom" dungeon had nothing more to do with him.
Morning.
He only slept for two hours before waking up at dawn.
At 7:00 AM, his biological clock woke him up naturally.
After getting washed up, he rushed off to school.
When he entered the classroom, a few students' chatter caught his attention.
"Hey, did you hear? The goddess Yuhan from Class 1 got an SS rating in the 'Venom' dungeon last night. I heard the rewards were crazy!"
"No way? When did that happen? I was in the Samsara Space too and didn't hear anything."
"You probably logged off early. It happened around five in the morning."
"Damn! And didn't she just get a Devil Fruit in the 'One Piece' dungeon recently? Now she's got an SS rating too? That's insane!"
"Heh, what's so impressive?"
"Oh come on, Fuxen, don't tell me you're jealous of Goddess Yuhan?"
"Jealous? Of course I am! But I'm more jealous of her luck. Do you really think she earned that SS rating on her own? Shura carried her!"
"Wait, seriously? Shura helped her clear the dungeon?"
"Why would I lie? Check your phone—it's all over the internet. Last night, Shura got an SSS-level Super God rating, and Yuhan got SS by tagging along!"
"Damn, Goddess Yuhan actually managed to cling to Shura's thigh? Isn't this the first time he's ever brought someone with him? So lucky!"
"Tch! What's there to envy? Yuhan probably offered herself to get him to take her along. Why else would Shura help her?"
"Fuxen, don't say that kind of thing. It's bad to spread rumors. Besides, Goddess Yuhan has powerful connections—maybe someone influential offered her to Shura!"
"Either way, Shura is insane. Getting a Super God evaluation is one thing, but he even managed to carry someone else to an SS rank? Unreal!"
"Sigh… if only Shura would take me on a run!"
Fenric was speechless as he listened.
Belle Morwyn… was actually Yuhan Song?
That goddess all the boys were obsessed with?
Well, damn.
But now that her identity was public, wouldn't she be in danger?
Then again, Fenric chuckled at the thought.
With that kind of background, there was nothing to worry about.
As long as Aurora Morwyn was around, who would dare touch Belle in the real world?
That said…
If it were him, even with a powerful backer, he'd never reveal his true identity.
There were too many threats in the Samsara Space—even someone like Aurora Morwyn couldn't guarantee her own safety forever.
If she ever failed in a dungeon, Belle Morwyn would become a prime target for vengeance and endless pursuit.
But whatever. That's their business—not his.
"Ric! Goddess Yuhan got an SS rating last night—how awesome is that!" Jitto called out from behind.
Fenric nodded absently. "Mm, yeah."
Jitto's voice took on a pervy tone.
"But hey, a lot of people think she must be close with Shura. I mean, he never takes anyone with him. Suddenly bringing a girl? Kinda sus, right? What do you think, Ric?"
Fenric: "…"
"Ohh, I'm so jealous of Shura. If I could just talk to Goddess Yuhan, I'd be satisfied. Never mind carrying her through a dungeon—I'd carry her for the rest of my life!" Jitto groaned with envy.
Fenric: "…"
