Chapter 11:

There's No I in Team

Renna stepped into the Guild staging room with a smile.

She supposed ending every dive in the middle of the best market on Essalon should make her suspect of the Dungeon Corporation's intentions. After all, adventurers, flush with gold, were presented with everything they could ever want- all in a convenient location.

Still, she didn't begrudge the Guild or the Corporation for taking their piece of the pie. Services like the shops, rooms, and the bathhouse made life so much more convenient and allowed adventurers to focus on what they did best- going into the Dungeon.

In time, it might become routine, but Renna doubted it. Her situation was as unique as her class. The Demon Born was bound by Zybos to either reach the highest heights or crash and burn.

Perhaps it was the chaos in her blood, but the young woman was at peace with her lot. She'd always had an innate need to challenge and strive, even though the temple had tried to lessen her. And if winning Zybos's wager spit in Axrena's eye- so much the better. The bitch deserved whatever she got for putting a golden belt on her.

Which is why I don't want to slow down!

She agreed with the Dwarf. Nothing in the Dungeon was as precious as a powerful team that worked well together. Renna had lucked (or perhaps divine providence had played a hand?) into a group of people who had the makings of elite adventurers. If she wanted to reach level 100, it wasn't only Renna who needed to be strong; she needed strength around her.

Which meant… they all needed to hit level ninety- together.

It was ridiculous.

There hadn't been five adventures that high since the earliest days of the System, before the Gods (or maybe Zybos?) had tweaked the leveling system to make 100 the cap.

The last person to reach the pinnacle was five hundred years before. Gregoria, the Monster Tamer, had a unique class that allowed him to bond Dungeon creatures. He'd not needed a team- the System had given him the ability to create his own.

Unfortunately, Renna didn't have the skill to bind the Dungeon's denizens to her will… yet. Now that she thought about it, Succubi were supposed to have minions- weren't they? She really needed to get a Guild tablet and read up on Demonic creatures- she might get a glimpse of the skills she'd be offered.

That was for another day, though. For now, she needed to figure out how to help her team and herself.

The best way she could see was to take defensive skills, ones like stun, that would allow her to act as support. The System assigned a base percentage of each battle's experience to the team, but those more involved received a bonus towards leveling for every creature they killed.

There were control classes such as Witch Doctors who used curses to debuff their opponents, leaving them weakened for their teams to mop up. If Renna could incapacitate but not finish monsters, her team would get more experience.
