Even so, the number of stats he gained from these and previous kills added up to a considerable amount.

He skipped past all the stats as his gaze landed on one thing in particular.

Critical Hit Damage Increase: 74,975.5% (+100%) → 100,000% (Max) [MAX - Click to inspect]

It’s maxed out? What the... Rael thought with a frown as he pressed on the button.

Immediately, another pop-up appeared, displaying a surprising piece of information.

<Ding!>

<Your Critical Hit Damage Increase stat has reached its limit!>

<Your limit will increase once you reach Grade 1 or Level 5,000>

"Seriously..."

[What were you expecting?] Burger scoffed. [But you’re not so far away from reaching Grade 1. You just need to clear a couple more dungeons, and you should be there.] freeweɓnøvel.com

He couldn’t refute Burger’s words.

While he was expecting something like a limit to appear, he didn’t expect it to happen so soon.

But if this was limited, then he could only imagine what would happen to the rest of his stats once they hit certain milestones.

Well shit... But it’s fine, Rael thought, shaking his head. That just means I’ll have a bigger surprise once the limit is removed and all those stats come flooding in at once.

Nonetheless, he wiped the blood off his clothes as he stepped past the hundreds of Blue Snake Dragon corpses.

They weren’t strong monsters, so all he had to do was cast one or two Caustic Prism Hearts, and he was good to go.

However, they did drop something interesting.

<x1 Greed Fragment collected!>

<2 / 5 Greed Fragments collected until next upgrade.>

Since he had massacred the moths that other time, and hundreds of draconians here, he realized a key detail about how the Greed perk functioned.

When the description mentioned there being an extremely low chance to drop a Greed Fragment, it wasn’t fucking kidding.

Like what is this shit? 1 in 10,000 odds?

He calmed himself down as he picked up the pace, trying to find the one thing he was looking for.

But he had already scoured a giant portion of this dungeon, and yet the boss was still nowhere in sight.

Or so he thought. But as he turned the corner, a surprising sight came into view.

A giant stack of golden bars was scattered across the ground. Some crowns were present, jewelry too.

Basically, anything that could be seen as valuable was now in front of Rael.

Of course, this place was none other than the boss room itself.

Rael hummed in interest as he stepped inside.

He glanced around, trying to spot the dragon.

To his surprise, he actually did.

There was a small kitchen to the side, and he could see a single white-haired slim figure chopping onions, tears streaming down their cheeks.

They had a long blue draconic tail and a pair of majestic horns out the sides of their head.

A few minutes passed, and they finally stopped chopping, then turned toward him, their enchanting crystal-like blue eyes meeting his.

<You’ve been inflicted with Dragon Fear!>

<Canceled!>

<You are immune to all Fear effects!>

"Dumbass," Rael remarked and inspected the humanoid dragon.

—Mercurius, The Blue Dragon [Humanoid Form] (Duke Class Boss) [Level 2800] [265,506 Trillion / 265,506 Trillion HP]

"Hmm...?" Mercurius tilted his head. "A human dares to insult me and resist my dragon fear?"

Mercurius snorted, a serious expression appearing on his flawless, pearly draconic face.

And finally, he spoke.

"Do you want to be pulverized to atoms, human?"

"Wow..." Rael muttered in disbelief. "Of all the things you could’ve said, you said the single cringiest shit I’ve ever heard... you ruined my perception of the cool dragons..."

[They’re not all this... stupid,] Burger said in a surprisingly flustered voice. [We—D-Dragons, I mean. Those beings are prideful and their intelligence is unparalleled amongst many of the lifeforms in the universe. This right here is probably a very young dragon, hence its level.]

Rael picked up on Burger’s stutter as he took out his Violin Blade.

Are you a dragon too? No... if even you’re a dragon, then...

A shiver went down his spine.

"Human, how did you find this place?" Mercurius asked. "I made sure to hide my den beneath the world’s crust, between three dungeons. I also made sure to completely destroy the entrance so I could sleep forever... yet you awoke me."

"My bad?" Rael said with a tilt of his head. "Hey, wanna become my pet dragon?"

Mercurius scoffed as he picked up the knife he used to chop onions and hurled it straight at Rael’s forehead.

But just as it was about to connect, Rael tilted his head, then caught the knife out of midair.

<[Phase] has been triggered!>

<Your next attack deals 150% more damage>

He immediately reappeared behind Mercurius and thrust the knife straight into his neck.

However, Mercurius suddenly jerked his tail, hitting Rael over the head and sending him flying into the pit of gold.

[HP -50 Million! 623,260 Billion / 624,310 Billion]

<Whale Destroyer Activated!>

<All enemies who attacked you have lost 1% of their total Trell!>

<+98,373,442 Trell>

Mercurius reappeared in front of Rael and took a deep breath, sucking in all the air around him.

The atmosphere suddenly got warmer, and Rael knew what was coming, so he swiftly jumped aside and struck his Violet string, sending a note straight at Mercurius.

But in the very same moment, Mercurius opened his mouth, fire swirling inside.

And then...

"ACHOOOOOOOOOO!"

—BOOOOOOOOM
