Chapter 53

Zach quietly listened to the party members' conversation and got the location of the secret boss dungeon.

'It's nearby. Just outside the town.'

The inn was near the gates of the town, and the secret boss dungeon was in the forest.

Zach could reach there within ten minutes, but he didn't know how much time it would take for him to defeat the boss. However, he already had 3500 MP, which was enough to deal 3500000 HP DMG thanks to his gloves that doubled his DMG too.

'I don't think the boss's HP would be higher than 3500000. The last boss I fought on the 50th floor of the dungeon had 3000000 HP.'

'But… this one is called secret boss, so it has to be stronger than the dungeon bosses, right?' Zach asked himself.

'Should I cultivate some more MPs and leave at midnight?'

Zach was planning to defeat the secret boss and get the mythical rank sword to give it as a gift to Aurora. But he missed the main problem.

Aurora came back, and they went to the reception to rent a room for the night.

"How many rooms would you like?" the female receptionist asked.

'I would have preferred one room, but since I am leaving at night for the hunt, I can't let Aurora catch me. And even if I make any excuses, I am damn sure that she would ask me to take her with me.'

"Two—" Zach was going to answer 'two rooms', but Aurora interrupted him.

"One room, please," Aurora said while glancing at Zach from the corner of her eye.

'...!' Zach was genuinely surprised. 'Is it just me, or she is becoming more and more audacious?'

"Two beds or one bed?" the receptionist asked.

"Two beds," Aurora answered.

"..." Zach sighed in relief and thought, 'Or maybe not.'

"Uhh… I am sorry, but we don't have any two-bed room available," the NPC informed them.

"Then one bed is fine," Aurora asserted. "How much for the room?"

"That would be 1200 coins," the NPC said with a smile on her face.

Aurora was about to pay, but Zach stopped her and turned to the NPC.

"We will eat our breakfast here," Zach uttered.

"I can make it 1100 coins."

"I can recommend this inn to the other players who drop by this town," Zach stated and continued, "Or maybe I can refer them the one which charges less."

Zach didn't even know how much other inns charged.

"How about 800 coins? We can also provide you with free breakfast."

"Maybe 300 coins." Zach's shamelessness has no limit.

"That's too less! I can't go lower than 700 coins," the NPC said desperately.

'I want to go lower, but I guess 700 coins is fine." Zach nodded at Aurora and smiled at her.

Aurora paid for the room and dragged Zach upstairs to their room.

"What's up? Why are you so aggressive all of a sudden?" Zach asked with a confused look on his face. "And why did you rent only one room?"

"I wanted to save money," AUrora answered.

'She is turning into me…' Zach let out a weary sigh and looked at the bed. "..."

The bed was half-meter in width and 1.5 meters in length. And it was certainly not suitable for two people to sleep.

He pointed his gaze at the bed and said, "I don't think we both can fit there."

"I think we can." Aurora walked to the bed and sat on it.

"Come." Aurora patted the empty space beside her and said, "Sit."

Zach sat beside her, and they both laid down on the bed.

"See? We can fit."

"No matter how you look at it, this is uncomfortable. If either of us turned to the other side, we would fall."

"So we just have to make sure not to move. Simple~"

Aurora's mood ticked off Zach for some reason, so he wrapped his legs around her body and said, "I have a habit of sleeping with a body pillow. So unless you don't mind me using you as a body pillow…"

Zach wanted to tease Aurora more, but he stopped after looking at her flushed face.

Aurora turned to the side and uttered in a low voice: "If you truly want to do that, then go ahead."

"..." Zach facepalmed himself and uttered inwardly: "If I do that one more time, then something hard is going to poke your butt."

"I was kidding." Zach turned to the other side and said, "We have to wake up early, so let's sleep."

Aurora and Zach were exhausted after walking all day, so they fell asleep in minutes. But Zach woke up a while later and looked at Aurora to make sure she was sleeping.

However, Zach couldn't take his eyes off Aurora.

'So defenseless…'

Zach quietly left the room and locked it.

Then, he rushed to the forest and strolled around to search for the entrance of the secret boss dungeon.

After 10 minutes, he finally found the entrance.

"Why is it at a place like this?" Zach muttered in frustration.

The entrance was inside a big tree.

The moment Zach entered the dungeon, he was attacked by a lava slime.

"Heh!" Zach sneered and kicked the slime like a soccer ball. "That was a 'warm' welcome."

"Still…" Zach walked forward and glanced around. "This place looks entirely different from the outside."

The temperature of the dungeon was high, and there were rivers filled with lava flowing around the dungeon.

"So this so-called secret boss is going to be a fire monster?" Zach asked himself and walked forward.

On his way, Zach encountered dozens of lava slimes, but he tossed them all by kicking them.

After walking for a while, Zach reached a long bridge. There was a gigantic door on the other side of the bridge. Seemingly it was the boss' domain.

Zach only needed to pass through the bridge to get the mythical rank sword after defeating the secret boss. However, there was something else he needed to defeat first.

Zach clapped his hand and said, "Whoever you are, I know you are following me. Come out, and I shall spare your life."
