“This is supposed to be the safer path?”

A certain half-elven girl kicked a small rock down into a deep chasm. She leaned over to look down but even after some time passed she couldn’t hear the stone hitting anything.

“Just don’t fall down…”

Silvio replied while looking out into the distance. Roland was also there looking at this mapping device, this time around there weren’t any monsters here. The path looked clear but the fall down below would probably be a death sentence.

‘The path looks clear…’

Roland didn’t see anything out of the ordinary in this place. They journeyed half a day to the west and finally, the large lava lake ended. The molten rocks at the end were pouring into a large chasm that at one side had a long winding path through it. They only needed to cross it to get to the other side and that would be it.

On the way here they had to battle through quite a bit of tier 2 monsters, their levels mostly between fifty and sixty. Even he managed to level up and finally reached the 80th level. Thanks to the book of runes he had managed to use his old cheat to gain levels faster. Even with that, his progress had slowed down, if he wanted to hasten it he would actually need to fight monsters closer to his own level.

He took a glance at his status screen and now was convinced that it was the right choice to get this class. He mostly gained 2 points in each stat with agility lagging slightly behind the others.

Roland had a choice to make, the tier 2 class change requirements were a bit different as he could push this class all the way up to level 50 instead of 25. Yet, he could switch to another class after 25 levels were gained in it. This left him with the option of getting more classes on the way to tier 3.

The minimum level limit of a tier 3 class was 150, which left him with 25 levels of another class after he was done with the Runesmith Lord class. He felt like going to the very end with this class would be the best option. It could be a requirement for acquiring a similar strong job for his tier 3 life.

This was something to think about but not something he needed to worry about much yet. His progress would slow down exponentially now. Unless he battled through hordes of high level tier 2 monsters or gained massive amounts of runic diagrams to copy over, he would remain a tier 2 class holder for many years to come.

“I hope the noble ladies don’t slip and fall, I bet those knights would blame us for it.”

Armand chuckled with his arms crossed over one another. He was looking behind them at the group of nobles that he had no respect for. Even now they were slowly moving here, their sluggish pace had now become annoying to him as well.

‘If this continues, we will be stuck here for over a month…’

Roland gave out a sigh while remembering the plan of the expedition. After going through this passage they would arrive at another wider area. There they would make camp for another week and the knights would sharpen their blades on larger monsters.

The secondary encampment would last for a longer period of time than the first one. That one would be closer to nests of monsters and beasts, which would be the main test for these young nobles and knights.

Their group on the other hand would be quite bored and just on constant guard duty. Silvio as the best monster detector would have to stay awake for prolonged amounts of time.

“At least, it’s easy on us, we don’t need to rush much.”

Lobelia commented while leaning back against the rocky walls. This area of the dungeon was quite spacious, the place could even be mistaken for a smaller mountain range that went mostly downward.

“They caught up with us, let us move on.”

Roland nodded and they started walking. The path was wide enough to allow two people to walk side by side. Even with that everyone decided to keep to the walls, if someone slipped and fell it would be over for them.

From what Roland knew some adventurers did try to climb down from here. there were even some attachments that had some thick ropes on them. This never bore fruit as the party abandoned the descent. The further down they got the windier it became, this was no summer breeze as the heated air didn’t allow anyone to get past a certain point.

They walked and walked, then walked some more. The path stretched for a lot longer than most expected. They were still underground but this dungeon seemed like it was a world of its own.

Roland started wondering about how these dungeons were created. Did this thing expand for many years below ground and finally connect to the outside a year ago. Maybe it was just created by the dungeon core in a burst of magic energy that filled out this large cavern that was here before.

Some smart people even theori
