BXBX NOVEL Chapter 91 - 90: Leveling Up
Taking the card back and seeing the money inside, Nero turned to the receptionist and thanked her, "Thank you, I\'m leaving now."
"It\'s my pleasure. Come back often, Miss Nero!" The woman waved many times as Nero left.
Nero returned to the guild counter. She said, "I want 100 stamina potions and 100 middle class mana."
Though surprised that Nero had returned, she smiled and said, "Yes, right away, Miss Nero."
The woman left and came back. She had with her two boxes with many bottles, one box with a red bottle and the other a blue bottle.
"These are 40 thousand coins with a discount," the receptionist said.
Nero didn\'t even think about the price and paid. Storing the potions in the Hunter Card, she left again.
*
Nero was now a millionaire, but she was in no mood to celebrate. She knew that others knew where she was and they wanted to murder her, which made her defensive. This time they had been just level 10 and level 9, but next time?
\'Now that I\'m officially an E Rank, I can enter the dungeon alone,\' Nero thought. It was nice to go in a group and do the dungeon together, but Nero didn\'t have that privilege anymore. She needed to get stronger as soon as possible. Only then would she feel safe.
"Nero, are you going in alone?" the guard asked.
"See anyone else?" Nero was in a bad mood and ended up giving the guard a cold expression.
"Err ...I\'m sorry?" The guard ended up apologizing and felt a little scared.
"It\'s nothing. I\'m going solo. I\'m officially an E rank now." She showed her Hunter Card.
"Okay, you can go in," the guard said and sighed in relief when Nero left.
*
If possible, Nero wanted to skip floor 1, as she didn\'t need level 6 Monster Cores. Only the boss was worth it. In less than 5 minutes with her bow, she shot all the cats in the head and killed even the boss with an arrow. Using <Plunder> since she was alone and didn\'t need to hide it from anyone, she then went up to floor 2.
With her bow, she started killing quickly, whether it was level 7 or level 8. Thinking it would be fine, she created about five dark arrows at the same time and fired.

[Notice!]
[Your action has unlocked an ability: <Rain of Arrows>]
[Rain of Arrows]: It was an ability created by the Huntress of Rabbits. When using this ability, each arrow will multiply by 3 and drop from the sky in random places.]
[Rain of Arrows]: This skill is currently at level 1.
_ _
It didn\'t matter to Nero why this ability was created; she just knew it was what she needed at that moment. Now when she shot 5 arrows into the sky, 15 started to fall like showers of rain, killing the monkeys.
The notifications of the dying gorillas kept appearing and Nero kept shooting arrows.
_ _
· Congratulations, [Rain of Arrows] has become Level 2!

Nero noticed that the damage was increased when using this ability. 10 minutes later, all the gorillas up to the boss were dead.
_ _
· Congratulations, [Rain of Arrows] has become Level 3!
_ _
\'That\'s about it.\' Nero used <Plunder> on all the bodies.
Going up to the third floor, it was the same scene as always, the penguins letting her kill them. Her sweep of the floor was even faster with a stationary target. It took her 5 minutes to kill almost 300 penguins.
Going up to the fourth floor, the bulls and cows were all scattered about, as expected from a herd of approximately 500 cows and bulls. Without mercy, Nero started shooting arrows into the sky and they started falling on the bulls and cows.

On the boss, she used *<Flaming Impact>* when shooting the arrow. It caught the bull\'s head and burst into flames.

\'Fuck it, I\'m going to use some Monster Cores from level 9 and go to level 7!\' Nero sat on the ground after using <Plunder> on all of the bulls and cows.

"...Okay, why not?" Nero muttered when she saw the mission that appeared.
Initially, Nero was going to take a potion of mana and stamina, but gave up on that idea. She sat down and meditated.

\'Dexterity is the ability one has to accomplish something... So, like being able to solve something difficult like a game, a puzzle...\' Nero thought as she saw a new status that had started to appear.
Nero looked at the statuses without using weapons.
