The Ruined Death Knight-Chapter 33: New Mission And Gate
"Sense Danger...being able to perceive danger? Sound like a passive skill..."
"119400 XP left to use... Let´s see the cost of everything this first and then decided..."
[Skills]
[Level Up]: 3500
[Class Level Up]: 4500
[Intermedite Weapon Mastery Lv.1]: 6700
[Miasma Corruption Lv.1]: 6000
[Sprint Lv.1]: 1200

"That´s a lot of Lv. 1 that I see there. Heck, the XP needed to level up increased by a whole another level!" Seeing the XP needed for all of this stuff I couldn´t help but curse internally.
Striking when you see my wallet full, huh?
"But still, it doesn´t look like I unlocked other skills to buy from my class advantage. Welp, nothing to be done I guess. I will just settle with the skills I got."
Although I said that I didn´t plan to increase the level of my skills first.
If I weren´t going to spend my XP to increase my skills level, then where will I spend it you ask?
Obviously.
To Increase my Level!
My goal...Level 20!
...
No, it isn´t because I am addicted to the evolution feeling!
Although I neither confirm nor denied it, I have a reason to increase my level!
Realy!
My goal isn´t to increase my attributes.
My true goal is to unlock the sub-class!
Although it is just a guess, I believe that at level 20 I can finally get my sub-class!
"Even if it isn´t at level 20, it has to be at best at level 23. If that Rapha guy who blew me away was able to get a subclass at the level of 23, then so should I..." Raising my hand I pressed towards the level-up screen.
[Level has increased from Lv.10 to Lv.11]
[Strenght Increased by 2, Agility Increased by 2, Intelligence Increased by 1, Endurance Increased by 2]
[You gained 2 Attribute points]
[Level Up]: 4000
"Oh? The attribute gains are a lot higher than before, even my intelligence increases now. Is it because of my evolution?" Seeing the attributes I got a little excited, but all that excitement has gone the moment I saw the +500 XP raise to level up...
Man, I know that you are after my wallet, but would it hurt to do it moderately!?
"Tch...It isn´t showing any mercy on my wallet..." Although I somehow felt grumpy about it. I had no other choice but to pay!
[Level has increased from Lv.11 to Lv.12]
[Level has increased from Lv.12 to Lv.13]
...
[Level has increased from Lv.19 to Lv.20]
[Strenght Increased by 18, Agility Increased by 18, Intelligence Increased by 9, Endurance Increased by 18]
[You gained 2 Attribute Points]
A total of 57500 XP spend in an instant!
But the pain that my wallet felt...
[In order to choose your Subclass, a mission has been assigned]
Was worth it!
[Mission: Kill someone who has a tier 2 class or a subclass to unlock the subclass option]
Reading through the mission I could only think of one thing...
"Ah, crap..." Seeing the mission I somehow felt bitter inside of me.
I hyped myself so much only to get an `access denied´ like answer!?
"Sigh...No point feeling upset over spilled milk. What is done is done."
Pushing away from the mission window, I looked at my XP storage.
[XP: 61900]
"Damn...I almost spend half the XP into this." I helplessly shook my head.
"I could increase my class level but I will pass this time around. After all, the skill also does need some love."
Without further ado, I started investing in my XP!
[You acquired Curse of Vigor Lv:1]
[Wind Blade level increase from Lv.1 to Lv.3]
[Shield Bash level Increased from Lv.1 to Lv.4]
[Sense Danger level Increased from Lv.1 to Lv. 3]
[Sprint level increased from Lv.1 to Lv.3]

[Remark: With your evolution of stepping through the Tier 2 Undead Although there is still a long way to reach. Your evolution broke the fate of you being as weak as a plain rock!]
"Alright, that should probably be enough for now. The rest 16825 XP I can save for rainy days. Wait...what was rain again...?"
Staring awarding through the cave ceiling I felt something was missing all of a sudden.
After some 5 long minutes, I got hold of myself.
"Right! I should prepare to leave" Getting of the stone table I gathered my thinks and went outside the cave.
"Alright!"
"Shield?" Check.
"Staff?" Check.
"Rusted armor?" Check.
"Awesome self-repair sword named Veren?" Check!
"I guess that´s it..." I slightly turned my head towards the shaman's cave.
"Although it wasn´t that long (I think)...It wasn´t that bad of a place to be"
With my shield on my left hand holding the casters staff and with my right arm holding the Veren sword I headed out fully equipped with some rusted armor from the head through toe!
You might ask where I got this garb- I mean armor from right?
Once upon these days when I was doing my breaks, I headed back into the lake to meet the skeleton that I freed before.
I mostly went out to meet him out of boredom but once I went back to the place he was trapped at I found no traces from this skeleton.
Although I felt somehow disappointed I mostly did it out of boredom so I didn´t mind too much.
But as I was going back to the surface a sudden idea hit me while looking at all the rusted armor down here.
And you guess right, I equipped the armor from the bottom of the lake into myself!
Since there was a vast amount of armor down there it made it possible to fully equipped me with rusted armor!
Not the best stuff.
But hey, Isn´t it better than just some piece of cloth that some goblins wore?
*2 Hours Later...
"Finally at the top floor where I was blown away..." Since my Agility has increased quite a lot it allowed me to reach the top floor faster than I had done before.
"Hmm, No sight of the Rapha guy or anything else...seems good to go" Walking away from the rock I was hiding at, I went out and explored the top floor.
But...
"There isn´t much to explore with only 1 path in sight. I somehow expected to see a similar number of paths at the top floor too but it doesn´t look like that is the case..."
After hesitating for a brief second, I walked towards the path.
"It should be fine...even If I were to meet this Rapha guy I should be able to easily win with my current self, the worst-case scenario I will have to run and dive to the lake again..."
After assuring myself I walked towards the path.
After walking for some amount of time I froze through the sight that I was seeing.
"That is a massive fricking gate!"
After all, a 10 meter high and wide iron door was in front of my sight!
*****
Outside the city of Nexvarres.
In the nearby forest of Nexvarres was a guard post that was placed at the Cursed Lake Dungeon.
A big orb inside a magic circle trembled.
And the orb started to make low noise.
*Ping, Ping~
Although slowly, the noise started to increase over time.
*Ping! Ping~!
Hearing that noise a soldier came and frown upon the sight of the orb
"What the....?"
