That night both of them did some preparations for the raid the next day.
"You take this cloak, Alice. It would be a lot useful for you." Shin probed Alice to take the cloak.
"Thank you, Shin." Alice happily accepted the gift from Shin.
"Okay now summon your, servants, one by one so we can equip them." Shin took all the weapons.
Alice continued summoning and sending her servants back after equipping them.
Soon after she summoned her mother and Mr. Robin.
Shin showed the weapons to Mr. Robin and he picked a gauntlet. Mia took a mace but Alice didn't send them back as she got the transmission from Mia.
Mia came forward and blessed both Shin and Alice for their happy life together. Seeing this scene Shin got a little emotional.
"I promise to take very good care of your daughter."
With his words, Alice also felt very happy and she hugged him. Mia smiled and at that moment her white figure started shining and forming a proper shape.
[Pure soul 'Mia Kayden' is now upgraded to Tier 3]
[Healing Magic is upgraded to Advance Healing Magic.]
Alice was surprised by this sudden change. But soon she saw a message appear in front of her.
[Mia:- Can you hear me?]
Alice saw the message with a tear in her eye.
"Ye-Yes Mom, I can read the message." She replied with a wide smile. She can't contain her excitement. Now she can have a proper talk with her mom. She wanted to talk more, she wanted to hear her voice but at least for now, she can talk with her in messages.
Mia smiled and another message appeared.
[Mia:- Don't cry, my little girl. Everything is fine. See how much you have grown up in a few days.]
Mia came closer to Alice and hugged her patting her back. But Alice continued crying. Because she was very happy.
[Mia:- Okay stop now. You don't want Shin to see you cry baby face right.]
At her words, Alice immediately stopped crying like she never was. Alice turned to look at Shin who was looking at them with emotional eyes.
From Alice's reaction, Shin was able to understand that Alice can now talk with her mother. So it was a happy moment.
"I'm not crying," Alice replied while wiping her tears.
[Mia:- Yeah, my strong girl. Also, are you going to do that today too.]
Mia asked hinting at the meaning behind her words.
Alice got embarrassed but she suddenly lifted her head in horror and started talking with the transmission.
[Alice:- Don't tell me you were peeking on us.]
[Mia:- That wasn't my intention but we could see everything you see. Don't worry, I didn't let Robin see anything. Only I saw that.]
Mia replied proudly while thumping her chest.
[Alice:- That's still not good enough. You shouldn't see too.]
[Mia:- That's unreasonable.]
While the mother and daughter were having some sort of discussion. Shin was sitting there waiting for it to end.
'It seems like it's going to take a while.'
'I shouldn't waste time. I should focus on that metal first.'
Shin took out the Unknown metal and looked at it again.
"Appraisal."
[Unknown Purple Metal - no information available.]
"There is no information. But why do I feel so familiar with this thing." Shin muttered while checking the metal.
He tried rubbing his hand around it.
'Should I try to infuse my masa inside it?' Shin thought and immediately got into it.
As he channeled his mana inside the metal. Surprisingly that metal started absorbing Shin's mana.
'Ohh, this is working. I should continue doing it.'
He continued injecting mana for minutes without stopping.
Alice and Mia's discussion was over and Alice came over to the bed and took a seat beside Shin.
Just when Shin was about to empty his mana. The metal stopped absorbing.
Shin opened his eyes wide. He was sweating a lot.
"This thing... absorbed a lot."
[Bond complete]
[Congratulations! You have obtained a Legendary grade weapon. ]
"Damn Legendary?"
[Formless (Legendary) - A weapon with no proper form
You are the owner of a legendary weapon that takes the shape as the user wishes. Can't take any form.
Bounded to the user.
Growth type. ]
Shin was very excited to try it out. But his mana was depleted.
A few minutes later he quickly recovered some of his mana and injected it into the metal bar.
The purple metal bar became transparent and then took the form of a sword. Although the sword looked lackluster with Shin's not-so-thorough imagination. It was enough to confirm the validity.
Shin turned to his side and noticed Alice was already asleep.
"I should sleep too. Tomorrow is an important day."
Felling Shin's warmth near her the sleeping Alice had a smile on her face.
***
The next morning, Aston city was busy reading the headlines of a certain article that brought everyone's interest. It was related to the group of people who called themselves 'The God's Child.'
Their sudden growth of influence was a problem for many people but they also gave a lot of benefits to civilians. The group of people was worshipping their God and making people join them. 'This is the only way to get salvation.'
Our duo, ignorant of these things had their focus on the labyrinth raid.
"Are we ready?" Shin asked just in case.
"Yes, we are," Alice replied with affirmation.
"Take care guys, don't be rash. Alice, keep an eye on Shin for me. Okay." Reina waved at them.
"Yes, Mom. Don't worry." Alice answered enthusiastically.
"I won't be rash this time. Hmph." Shin understood that it was his mistake last time. But he won't let that happen again.
"Bye Mom."
Both of them left for the city center.
As they arrived at the city center to their surprise this time it was a lot more crowded than last time. The only difference was there were only a few highly authoritative people. Unlike last time.
Also, a bunch of people looked like priests but were not. They keep repeating the same words.
"Salvation, Salvation."
"That's the only way."
"These guys are creepy. Alice let's not waste time." Shin urged Alice to follow him. She also nodded hurriedly. These people were creepy.
They used the same method again. Avoiding everyone's eyes by using Shadow Veil and skipping the line.
By their luck, the last party came out at the same time.
They hurriedly placed their hands on the door to enter before the other party. They assumed the other party would take a few seconds for themselves to arrange and enter together.
But it was just their miscalculation. The next party was a solo raid person.
Yes, it was none other than Leonard Drake. As Shin and Alice placed their hands on the gate Leonard also placed his hands unaware of Shin and Alice's presence.
'Oh shit.' Shin cursed but it was too late.
All three of them vanished from there and appeared inside the labyrinth. The only difference was Shin and Alice opened their eyes in front of the beautiful sight of the otherworldly ocean and Leonard was at the top of the cliff and was ready to fight through this horde of monsters.
This time Shin and Alice didn't lower their guard although they knew too well that this floor is cleared there was no reason to take risks.
"Alice let's move to the next floor," Shin said as he used his skills to pinpoint the gate's location.
As they entered the next floor a notification entered Leonard's ears.
[Your teammates have entered the 6th floor.]
Leonard's eyes widened in shock.
"What the?"
'Don't tell me it's those guys?' He suddenly came to a realization.
"Hahaha, what a great opportunity. Now I can kill them and get their rewards too. If I just clear this floor all other floors will be already cleared for me. I can just skip to them and kill them."
Leonard got more excited as his hunting speed increased.
"I can clear this floor in about 3 hours and they should at least take 4 hours to clear the 6th floor even if they are strong."
Leonard made an estimation and was not going to leave this chance.
"How dare they take my rewards and I also want to know. Who the heck is powerful enough to challenge floor 6 this early?"
"This is going to be fun."
***
As soon as they entered the 6th floor they were inside a big ruin. Using his predator's eyes and appraisal Shin got a general idea that this floor is not very big.
"Alice get ready to summon them anytime now."
"I'm on it." Alice didn't waste any time and transformed into her dark form. She also had her Soul grimoire floating above her hand.
"They are here." As Shin said those words. Large rumbles sounded.
"Is this an earthquake?" Alice asked while she was completely focused.
"No, they are golems," Shin replied.
[Sand Golems (Level 45-55)]
