Witnessing Robin's new skill, something she apparently just received from the dungeon awards. Bethel licked her luscious pink lips in excitement as she hopped on over. As far as she was concerned, herself, Sora, Mel and Olivia were all of equal standing within the hierarchy.

"Eh? From how long Asai and Robin took, I figured they had multiple options to chose from?" Picking up the only item that was colourful to her, she allowed her mana to slither in and register her as the owner before storing it away. 

Olivia and Sora both went up together, as they didn't really care about taking turns. Not when Asai and Robin were already done.

The two pleasantly surprised, joyfully plucked up their rings that automatically adjusted to their finger-sizes. A snug-fit, and even whilst deliberately flinging their hands around, the rings remained steadfast.

Finally, Olivia no longer had to rely on stock weapons, whilst also carrying them around on her back. Another pleasant surprise, was that her [Mithril Shields] included all three forms; That being the general circle shield, the kite and last the tower shield. However, she found that she was only able to summon one at a time.

Sora Kaka, happily examined her new katars, that appeared beautifully crafted with three blades. The main gauntlet part was in jet-black, optimized for stealth and night-attacks. And upon deliberately slicing her fingers upon the edges, she found that the blade literally refused to cut its owner, whilst any other old material like cloth or the like was instantly cleaved.

...

Mel, being the last to approach the chest, wasn't exactly optimistic about the rewards at all.

"It's a good weapon."

Asai's sudden comment surprised the girl as she almost dropped her new weapon.

"The rapier is a light, fast and precise weapon. Designed mainly to penetrate through the gaps and weaknesses of enemies. Whilst you can't really slice, you can definitely thrust and pierce. In your off-hand, I recommend a little buckle-shield or a dagger. Or even better, equip a gauntlet that comes with a small shield attached, and also wield your usual dagger.

If I happen to be wrong on anything, feel free to teach me all about it later."

Asai gently patted her on the shoulder, his warm smile filled her with comfort as he decided to leave her to her thoughts.

As the party had mostly received their rewards, their bodies started to fade into particles, returning to the world outside the dungeon. Asai, being the only one remaining and not fading away, curiously looked over towards Kami.

"Did you forget? Your bonus reward~"

Four earrings gently floated above her palms. Twirling and bouncing, as if they were alive and excited.

"These earrings are permanent by the way, once you put them on, they're attached to you for life. The same goes for the souls that dwell within them."

[Airavat]

[The legendary white elephant]

[Dine]

[A single-horned unicorn]

[Neophron]

[Tail, legs and body of a lion and wings and head of an eagle, Griffon.]

[Dream]

[Divine-winged stallion]

Asai, couldn't believe his eyes. As someone who had mostly marched across all acres of land, jumping from horse to horse. Mighty-beasts that were expensive and insanely taxing to maintain, and highly likely of becoming crippled upon marching into war and battle as the fields become clattered with steel and metal.

The man had honestly become more accustomed to walking, rather than risking such a horse. Especially when he knew very well that it was highly likely, that he would be ditching it someplace, somewhere whilst he dungeon dived or fought against all elements of beasts and monsters again and again.

"A soul-companion, a mount that will courageously charge into battle with you. For as long as your heart beats yet, it too shall continue on living. All manners of injuries will heal in due time, all that is needed, is to feed it your mana." Kami, enjoying the thoughts and emotions that she casually helped herself to. Further enticed the man into making a decision.

"Kami, please. Could you tell me a little more about them?"

Performing a little curtsy, she left the earrings to linger within the air as she went on over and squashed her melons into his back.

"[Airavat] The elephant is slow on ground, but he can deal devastating damage to both land-enemies and structures.

[Dine] The unicorn is the fastest land mount out of the four. Slap on some armour and he will be cavalry charging everything to death.

[Neophron] The griffon is capable of flight, and whilst he has the highest speed within the air, his land speed is quite low.

[Dream] The Pegasus is the middle ground between them all. Fast on land and in the sky, however, still slower than the unicorn and griffon if they had to race."

As a man who had always strived to be as flexible and adaptable as possible. He swiftly made the choice. The little cross-earrings easily penetrated through his ear-lobe, and upon attaching its other-end, a sudden spark of electricity shot through his mind.

Collapsing into Kami's cleavage, the goddess gently held onto the slumbering man as his body dematerialized and exited the dungeon.

"Take care of him for me. He'll serve you well~"
