"How many of them are there?!" I spoke out loud with an exhausted tone as I kept killing them more and more. It started with hope, then went on to despair, anxiety, love, anger, frustration, etc. And even now I am just going deeper and deeper.
And if it wasn't annoying enough
[14th Spirit of Voltaire(SSSS-Grade)]
This one was the Spirit of Betrayal, one with a Stronger Grade than any of them I have faced up until now. It was really a pain to kill the last one, and this one is even more annoying.
If I were to guess, I had already spent over a month killing them all… and this one just made my day from bad to worse.
'Sigh… well, at least it's not an impossible direction,' I thought as I was using [Eyes of the Timekeeper] to keep an eye out for the correct directions and it didn't falter any second at all.
Preparing my spear, I began to fight again for the 14th time without any break.
Since it was an SSSS-Grade, I had to continuously use the [Time Rejection!] without much breaks. I guess I was lucky that the amount of regeneration ability this guy had was much less than compared to my ability to harm him.
While it would have been impossible for me to kill him normally, with most of my abilities combined, it might take some time, but it should be doable now.
Gripping my spear tightly, I started slashing in the air again while also making use of this ability of mine.
[Temporal Inversion(Uncommon)!]
[User can cause the flow of time to go in the opposite direction. Can work only on inanimate objects. Cost: 500TP/Second]
Using this on the spear that Armes gifted me, it was quite easy to return the durability of this Skill. Slowly and slowly, time passed as I kept fighting against the SSSS-Grade guy.
Though it wasn't all a loss, I guess. Even my Skills were getting polished as I was adapting to the changes that were occurring around me. If I could barely see him before, now I could more or less predict where he was coming from. Though I kind of needed to use all my abilities at once for that.
And just like that, a few months passed as I kept fighting against the SSSS-Grade spirit and a message came in front of me.
[Congratulations on Killing the 14th Spirit of Voltaire!]
[Your rewards will be calculated at the end of the dungeon!]
[You may proceed to the next room of the dungeon!]
'Sigh… another room? Seriously?' I thought as I looked at the System before moving down to the next floor.
[15th Spirit of the Voltaire(SSSS-Grade)]
"Ah! Fuck it!" I spoke as I glared at that one and began fighting again…
And just like that, another year passed… and another… and a decade… and another…
[Congratulations on Killing the 27th Spirit of Voltaire!]
[Your rewards will be calculated at the end of the dungeon!]
[You may proceed to the next room of the dungeon!]

And soon I entered the next floor as I saw the System Screen.
[You have cleared all the Floors of this Dungeon!]
[You may now enter the last room of the Dungeon!]
[Your evaluation will be done after the battle has completed!]
'How much time has passed in the outside world?' I questioned, as I had always checked it after defeating another one of the Spirit.
[3 Hours: 14 Minutes: 12 Seconds]
'So I have spent over 3600 years here? Hmmmm… my sense of time is getting messed up.' I kinda sighed at the kind of life I was moving towards.
Twice it happened that I had both slept and passed thousands of years. Plus, if I am not wrong, my new race, Ethereal, is also responsible for this distorted sense of time.
I am pretty sure if I were a human, I would have lost my senses a long time ago. Maybe not when I was sleeping, but here, no chance I would survive this long.
'Anyway, what next now? I hope it ends here,' I thought as I moved deeper into the dungeon, finally entering into a certain black empty space. At the center of the space there was a disk platform floating in the air, which held a certain red coloured being which was chained against a small wall.
There was a single platform that connected that platform and the place I was standing and with a cautious look, I moved forward as I kept using my abilities for any surprise attack.
Though surprisingly, there was not one attack aimed towards me.
Moving closer, I saw a crown fallen on the ground about a dozen meters away from the being that was chained. My eyes looked at the crown as I slowly picked it up and then continued to move towards that thing which was in front of me.
A six armed three headed wolf was chained by black and white chains covering him from all around, tying him up completely. His eyes were closed, though I could feel a slight pattern of breathing coming from his mouth as I observed him.
[You are here]
I saw the red-coloured screen in front of me before looking at that guy and nodding,"I am."
[King Voltaire!]
[Your inspection level is too low to see through this person!]
'When I used [Inspect] on Kira, at least it showed his name with all the other things hidden behind the question mark… does that mean he is stronger than Kira? Well, that really makes me wonder if I should help him or not,' I questioned on the inside as I observed him with a bit of deep thought.
Another red screen appears in front of me showing
[Please place the crown on my head!]
"Give me a reason to," I asked without any hesitation. This could very well cost my life.
[Because you will die in this place without me. I am the only one capable of escaping from this place. I am the only one who can help you out from here. Plus, it's not like I won't reward you for what you have done]
My eyes looked at that message for a moment before looking at the [The Defier] Skill. It has been recharged while I was here, so I guess, at worst, all I need to do is defy this guy's existence if things go wrong. Might cost a lot, but that is fine if it saves my life.
And with that in my mind, I proceeded to place the crown at the top of his head, still wondering if I was making the right choice or not…
