Chapter 126

'A Special Title!'

Even though it felt like Seol was now collecting titles whenever he breathed, it still felt amazing whenever he acquired a Special Title or an Inaugural Title.

[[Title: Foolhardy]

Related Achievement: We'll Cheer for You (Adventure: Labyrinth of Penance)

Bonus Effect: Your odds of being poisoned are slightly reduced.]

[[Special Title: Gifted]

Related Achievement: Effort Is a Talent Too (Adventure: Labyrinth of Penance)

Bonus Effect: The rate at which your Talent's proficiency increases during study or practice is improved. Additionally, the rate you are inspired is increased.]

'It's a title related to Talents.'

Seol had two Talents. The first was Monster Cooking, which advanced from Cooking, and Insight.

'I was thinking Insight would advance soon too... this will help it out.'

Based on how Seol received a message that Insight's proficiency was greatly increased previously, it was likely that Insight's advancement would happen soon as well.

And this title would reduce the time Seol needed to get there.

- Finally 😭

- I thought it'd take 3 days at the most, but... I guess it really is a deep study.

- It would have went a lot faster if they didn't knock out every time LOL

- Fainting is just a part of the curriculum 🙂

'Even so... has it been two months already?'

It was nearing the three-month point since Seol entered the Labyrinth of Penance. However, he had spent over two months in just the Penance of Patience.

'I've searched a large area around here, but I wasn't able to find any door.'

There wasn't a specific, concrete method to escape the Penance of Patience. Even the Blood Saint wandered around for a while before stepping through a door that suddenly appeared.

Seol slowly started to become impatient.

[Your Mental Contamination has reached 70.]

That was the message that appeared not too long ago.

'If it gets delayed any further... it could be dangerous.'

The next day, Seol approached Toki to receive his council.

"So... Toki."

"Hey, it looks like we have to move our base."

"...Huh?"

Surprisingly, the first to bring this up was Toki.

"Isn't it slowly approaching the time... when you have to find the door now?"

"......"

"Let's go then. It didn't seem like the door was anywhere near here. You haven't... found anything around here, right?"

"I haven't."

Seol had forgotten it.

Toki, too, had come in here as a flagellant.

'He needs to find the door as well.'

Seol had been searching for the door for two months, but Toki had been searching for it for ten years.
