The team was not happy about serving some church that was located in the middle of nowhere, they were not fans of this idea whatsoever! Though regardless of what they felt, they had to cooperate here, because for some reason, this oddly built Church of Gulism had plenty of spiritual values, and deep uohey s priest's blessing, and they soon.

  “If there is a big ass monster sealed away in that cave, I'm gonna lose my shit!” Tim hollered, as they walked back towards the mountainside. “It's not that I'm scared of monsters, but the priest should've e with us if he wants those caves so much.”

  “The priest?” Ortana challenged him, “Wouldn't it make more sense if he lended us some guards instead?”

  “Oh yeah,” He nodded, and this versation ehere, as his anger was very short-sting for once.

  Anyway, the priest told them where the caves were, they weren't too far from the spot where Geie had nded on. With that said, they went right around the caves, and climbed higher to fetch the dragons.

  Tim and his friends did not know what they were going to fa the Forbidden Caves, but they figured that havi dragons to their aid might e in handy. Well, only one of those dragons was huge and intimidating, but help of any kind was surely wele.

  Along the way, the system broke her silereak, and spoke to Timothy. She said, [There has been a lot going oly, so I'm going to try and make these struggles worth your while. I'm going to vert your ret tasks here, into ‘system given’ tasks.]

  “Really!?” He celebrated, “That would really help me out, system, because I'm the poorest I've ever been regarding system points! I never khat I'd be poor with eighteen-hundred points to my 's insane, we o work on this.”

  [Purchases tend to get more expensive as yress, especially if you improve your mana quality. It's very normal.] She assured.

  [Your asks are the following…] She then said, and caught his attention even further.

  [Attain the blessing of the three churches, and you will be rewarded with 11,000 system points. That's task number nine.] She announced.

  Furthermore, she said. [se, and survive the Forbidden Caves, and you will be rewarded with five-thousand system points. That's task en.]

  Tim couldn't be happier about these offers! The promised system points were ihousands, and he was supposed to do these things anyway, so it was almost like he was being rewarded for nothing. This was a good way to start the day, he trotted up the mountain very willfully now!

  Anyway, the group fetched the dragons, and then flew over to the Forbidden Caves. It didn't take much effort to find the caves, but they met with their first obstacle almost immediately after they got here. The pce was sealed, as the priest had mentioned.

  It wasn’t sealed magically or anything like that, no, it was just sealed with rocks, a lot of rocks. The entrance was about seveers wide, and it was entirely blocked, meaning that it had taken a lot of effort to seal this entrance about three-hundred years ago. Likewise, it would take a lot of effort to unseal it, perhaps more in parison.

  Tim took one look at it, and said. “Yeah… I'm not bending over to pick up rocks, not even a single one, I don't want to work. Let's py it smart, everyone back off, a me hahis. Shoo, go over there!”

  There was no holding him back. Tim oint chaser, he loved the idea of winning thousands of system points, so he was the first to face the challenges from now on!

  Aside from that, he had the widest assortment of abilities in parison to everyone else, all thanks to the system. He had better ways of breaking through these boulders, meaning, bsting fireballs against the debris was out of the question. They were asked to the entranot cause an inner colpse, so he was the best choice for the case.

  Tim summohe Bone Multiplier ability, because it promised the most precision in parison to his other powers. It took little effort to summon it, and once he did, he had it seek out animal bones around him!

  This ability was supposed to be used to manipute his own bones, as in, for him to grow extra limbs and things like that. However, he didn’t want to risk doing anything like that soon, so he has found very creative ways to use this ability differently instead!

  Since he could find the bones of dead animals, he collected those bones, and then multiplied them. He could manipute their sizes thhly, so he turhe bones into a bunch of tiny daggers, as he often did, and this started to bee like a signature move of his, just because of how useful the daggers were!

  Anyway, with about sixty daggers to his disposal, he started chipping through the debris! The boulders in front of him were pretty tough, but they could not withstand the several huiny hits per sed that he inflicted upohe daggers were really fast-moving, and within mihey split a boulder through the middle as a result!

  Tim was effective with his powers, but it would still take a lot of time to break through this entrahat was for sure. It was seveers tall, after all, he wasn’t just dealing with a couple of stones, but hundreds of them! He could only hope that this job wouldn't drain his mana pool entirely.

  He was worried about that, so while he worked, he expined. “I'm gonna try to make a little hole for us to jump through, otherwise this will shit will take days for me to clear out. I don't have enough mana for that, so, a six-foot wide hole will do us, we'll ehrough the top of the rubble up there.”

  The group just nodded along, they agreed with him, because he was the one spending mana here. Tim had a massive mana pool to his disposal, yes, he could fit about forty-two-thousand points in it, but regardless of how deep the pool was, its points were very easy to spend. His mana quality was at level six now, meaning that every ability he had was more powerful, but it also took more mana off of him upon use!

  For example, he was using fifty mana points per sed right now, just to dig through the debris! With that said, he was hoping to make arance for himself as soon as possible, because it would take a long time to get all these mana points back! He could naturally gee just about seven-hundred mana points every hour, which sounded like a lot, but it really wasn't when one sidered how deep his mana pool was.
