Chapter 200: One Week
The reward that Rin and Erix got after clearing level 7 cave's single Howling Tomb was simple yet impactful.
A scroll of Insight. One could get an insight into anything with this scroll. If one wanted insight into Wind Element, that person could just write [Insight into Wind element] on the scroll and activate it.
Write it down, and you could get an insight into that one particular thing.
It was a one-time-use item, so Rin and Erix decided to use it once they faced a solid wall during their Howling Tomb challenges.
...
After Erix and Lilith showed the real deal and whipped Maleina and Lynia to their places, Rin and Lily returned shortly.
The level 8 cave's howling tomb was yet again different than level 7. It didn't have one Howling Tomb, but five instead. However, the four out of five tombs were locked.
Rin didn't attempt to challenge the level 8 cave's 1st howling tomb, as there was much more to it than just a direct challenge.
She had to read a wall of text, and when she finished, Lily had just emerged from level 8 cave's 1st tomb, telling Rin everything about the challenge and explaining to her the difficulty.
To unlock 2nd tomb, one would need to use both wits and power to solve some mystery in the 1st tomb. The enemies were also multiplied, and not just one boss, as the level 8 howling tombs were rather adventurous.
After they returned, they spent the night in meditation rest to recover. Basically sleeping. But on the next level, to recover fast and fully, physically and spiritually.
The next day, Rin and Erix completed the 1st tomb challenge, but it took them three hours. A similar amount of time that Lily took.
Moreover, they exited injured again, indicating that the difficulty was no less despite it being 1st tomb of level 8. Of course, Rin and Erix also purposely became daredevils to improve faster at the cost of danger and injuries after they entered that demonic world and unveiled it.
Lily was at her own pace because she was stronger, and Rin and Erix after breaking through to Royal-order.
Afterward, everyone's daily routine once again began.
The rest of the day went to Serene Spot meditation to improve comprehension of their powers. Rin was focusing on improving her Wind mastery as she also wanted to make it reach 3rd realm.
Rin and Erix returned to the cavern after completing the 4th tomb.
"The last one is going to be the toughest nut to crake," Erix thoughtfully said. "Should we use a Scroll of Insight and see if we can make a burst progress in anything?"
"If we can get enlightenment after using it, then we can definitely burst progress," Rin nodded, her eyes indicating deep thinking, "But let's use it super carefully. I want to get insight into something impactful rather than just progressing in one of our affinities or concepts."
"Yeah, I was thinking the same," Erix nodded. "I want something to utilize the worth of this wonderful item fully. We can still gradually progress in our affinities without it, heh."
"What are you talking about?" Lilith asked as they saw the duo emerging from the portal while talking.
"We are thinking about using a Scroll of Insight, but don't want to just use it thoughtlessly," Rin replied.
Both of them arrived at the aesthetic wooden table and sat across Liith.
Lily was in deep meditation for five whole days without moving a muscle ever since she used the Scroll of Insight.
Klelia was also on a Serene Spot while Reinala, Lynia, and Maleina were working as maids as usual, mostly dressing and preparing ingredients.
Not just for cooking but also for Alchemy because Maleina was a rather high-level Alchemist, at level 4.
So Lilith was using her to make various potions and even experimenting to create new ones.
"If you want to use Scroll of Insight to its full potential, then I have a suggestion," Lilith said with a faint, mysterious smile. "But, there's a catch."
"Oh?" Rin and Erix raised their eyebrows.
"Hahaha, it's funny when you show a simultaneous reaction," Lilith burst out laughing.
Rin and Erix wryly smiled.
"So, what's the suggestion with a catch? You left us hanging."
