Chapter 214 - Seventh Floor

After declining the system's prompt, Sheila quickly found a spot behind a tall tree before letting herself comfortable and took sandwiches out of her inventory. As she wasn't a fan of cooking, the sandwiches of course isn't made by her but Ria. Currently she still have plenty of sandwiches and other rations enough to last her for a month. Even so, Sheila couldn't help but keep putting more snacks and other unhealthy foods into her inventory, taking advantage of the unlimited storage.

Of course she didn't tell Ria about it or everything would have been confiscated.

"I'm still 10 levels away from reaching my goal." She muttered after taking a good bite out of her sandwich while staring at the status interface in front of her. Even if she somehow reach level 50 within the quest's time frame, Sheila still feel like she won't be having a good time fighting that Earth Dragon. It's size alone already overwhelmed her, she couldn't imagine how powerful it would be if it was forced to fight in a kill or be killed situation. 

"Raksha!" With a shout, a fierce wolf appeared before lovingly l.i.c.k.i.n.g her on the cheeks. "Yes, yes, I know. You wanted food right? Here," she said before a fresh and raw chicken's meat appeared out of thin air and dropped to the ground next to her. Seeing the meat, Raksha immediately stopped her previous action before stepping toward it. But before she feast on the raw meat, Raksha turned her head toward her master and once she received a nodded from the latter, she immediately munch on the meat.

Looking at her pet devouring hungrily on the chicken's meat as if it was the most delicious food in the world, Sheila can feel the urge to eat in her increasing. Though she had already eaten a couple of sandwiches, there's still another stomach for the desserts. With that thought in mind, she took out a cup of ice cream before slowly enjoying the delicacy in her hands.

"Alright, let's resume the grinding," she proclaimed before standing up to her feet and stretch out her arms up in the air. The system interface appeared once again, but this time she clicked on the yes option within her mind and soon, she was transferred to another location, the Seventh Floor.

Unsurprisingly, her surrounding still remains the same, the Seventh Floor was also in the Forest. But just like the other floors she had experiences, there's highly likely more monsters on this floor than the previous one. Or perhaps, there might be unique monster, stronger than others, and harder to deal with. Whichever it is, she shall keep fighting and grind for more experience.

With a swipe of her hand, a small group of soldier giant ants appeared and she swiftly commanded them with a hand signal to scout her surrounding. While she were waiting for the giant ants, Sheila took a quick look at what the others was doing with the system's live video capture. Ria seems to be helping Yuna out on the First Floor. 

"Let's see, I zoomed in and imagine cl.i.c.k.i.n.g on her, viola!"

"A ranger, so that's why Ria bought a bow and arrows in the system's shop a while ago."

She remembers resting on her bed after a good round of grinding, and then complaining to the system about how it would be great if the others can purchase something in the system's shop if she allow them. And to her surprise, Ria can access the shop but only for basic stuff.

Sheila had known the system always seems to be listening to her whether it was just a joke or a serious matter, which have been proven multiple times. She was surprise simply because she didn't expect the system to listens to her demand. 

A healer, mage, assassin, and now a ranger. It was a balance team if one didn't consider how she was able to switch her role at anytime depending on the situation. She can also be considered as Monster Tamer, but that's not the point. It was as if fate was leading her to this point by giving them each different classes so that they would do just fine even if she wasn't there with them. 

'Did I just raise a flag?' so she thought before shaking her head. She had been on edge lately cause of the quest and everything she had experiences from the moment she received the system, it wasn't a surprise that her imagination also gone wild. 

Time moves so fast. It felt like just yesterday she was having trouble waking up in the morning, but no more of that. Now it feels natural to wake up early and do some workouts to get those healthy sweats. Even her mother and Ria was so used to it that the latter would also likes to join the workout from time to time.

And her once quiet household is now filled with people with different quirks. Seeing Sylvia sitting on the couch in the living room watching her favorite anime had almost becoming the norm. And accidentally getting into someone in the middle of their bath cause still dazed after waking up, it's all turning her every days life into a more interesting one. If it wasn't for the system giving her quest from time to time, and a reminder that life isn't without dangers, she might have taken it easy.

"Alright, that's enough of reminiscent of the past. Its about time," just as she said, the giant ants returned and quickly send the information they acquired from scouting directly to her mind. These small group of giant ants had already been tamed by her a few weeks ago, just like the Queen. It wasn't like that at first, after all she only got small amount of gold at the time so she couldn't buy the rune notes in masses. 

But after all the grinding, she had more than enough gold to tame a small group of giant ants that willingly scout her surrounding at her command. 

"As expected, the monsters aren't too far from each other. If I were to attack one of them, a single shout would be more than enough to attract attention before surrounding me within a few minutes." 

Suddenly, her whole outfit magically switched to all black making her harder to notice if she hides between the shadow of the tree. It looks exactly like what one would expect the assassin to wore seeing as she even covered up her mouth down to her neck with a black veil. 

"Assassination it is," she muttered before commanding the giant ants to hide in the ground until further command, and asks Raksha to return back to the note state before putting it into her inventory. She then swiftly jumped into the tree's shadow to another. It goes on until she finally saw her first target on the Seventh Floor, an Oni.

With sharp daggers on each of her hands, she took on a stance before jumping out of the Oni's shadow and send a deathly attack on its unwatched back.
