Chapter 17

The phrase "specified number of times" comes with the statement, "In the future, even if you clear this dungeon, you will not receive any rewards."

If taken at face value, this means that there is a set number of times a person can clear the dungeon, and I have reached that limit. Furthermore, even if I exceed that number, I won't receive any rewards.

I recalled how many times I had cleared the Dream Dungeon up until now. Before my dungeon teleportation skill reached level 10, I cleared it once, and after that, let's see... 49 times. A total of 50 times. So, the specified number of times for the Dream Dungeon is 50, I suppose.

"Indeed, in a span of a week, no one would clear the same dungeon 50 times. At most, they would clear it 10 times or so, and then move on to the next one after leveling up. That's why no one has ever noticed this system before, right?"

If that's the case, I would be the first person in the world to discover this system... However, it would be better not to tell other adventurers about this. If asked how I obtained this information, I would have to explain my dungeon teleportation skill.

Moreover, even if this information were to spread, it would be difficult for other adventurers to make use of it. For a regular adventurer, it would take nearly a year to clear the dungeon 50 times. The bonus reward of a 20-level increase wouldn't be worth it.

"No, wait. It's not like the bonus reward is limited to level-ups. In other dungeons, there might be different rewards, such as weapons or items."

It's worth trying. There might be something in there that other adventurers can't obtain. If I can get my hands on those, I should become even stronger.

"Well, it's more of a wish than a prediction, but still."

In any case, there's no need to rush and think about it now. For now, I should be happy that I received a 20-level increase as a bonus reward. It's a bit disappointing that I can no longer clear the Dream Dungeon...

"No, wait. I can still clear it, just without the reward... I might want to collect materials inside the dungeon. I should give it a try, just in case."

To confirm, I decided to challenge the Dream Dungeon one last time. I was able to enter the dungeon without any issues. I could even fight the boss harpy, but as expected, I didn't receive any rewards.

"Hmm, I can't get any rewards, as expected. Since the Dream Dungeon doesn't have attractive resources, I might not come back here anymore."

Still, the Dream Dungeon has helped me grow this far, and I owe it a debt of gratitude. With deep appreciation, I left the place.

...Well, if I think about it calmly, thanking someone for killing monsters and stealing resources is pretty much the work of a psychopath. I'll just ignore that.
