Samsara Tower: Only I Know the Plot!

Chapter 150: Chapter 150: Can I Bet the Jade Spirit to You?

Fenric was momentarily stunned by Aurora’s words.

The Sixth Stage dungeon was... ”Avengers”?

If that really was the case, then this so-called ”tampered U-disk” was far more valuable than it seemed.

Iron Man’s armor—if considered a special item—was definitely a treasure.

After all, Fenric couldn’t fly yet. But if he had a set of that armor, wouldn’t flight become a possibility?

Just thinking about it made him laugh.

”Alright, I’ll accept it,” he said with a grin.

Belle nodded happily. ”Great God Shura, I’ll head to the trading center and hand it over to you after I finish my tea!”

”Sounds good.”

Suddenly, Aurora spoke up. ”Shura, when you do the Sixth Stage dungeon, if possible... could you collect a few extra suits of armor? I can trade other special items for them.”

She added quickly, ”Of course, this is just a personal request. It has nothing to do with Belle. Her gratitude is sincere.”

Fenric chuckled to himself.

He knew exactly what Aurora had in mind. If he really brought back an Iron Man suit, she’d probably submit it to the higher-ups for scientific research.

”Well, we’ll see. You never know what might happen in a dungeon,” Fenric said lightly.

”Alright, then we’ll talk later,” Aurora agreed quickly.

She wouldn’t dare press him too hard now.

”Oh, right!” Fenric suddenly remembered something. ”Aurora, can you help me gather a few cooldown refresh cards for the dungeons? I can pay with points. I only have one left. If I use it tonight, I won’t be able to challenge the dungeon again tomorrow.”

A glint appeared in Aurora Morwyn’s eyes.

”Shura, you really don’t rest, do you? Gathering cards won’t be a problem. In Area C, I’ve still got enough clout to gather a few without even spending points.”

Then she asked, ”But... are you planning to challenge again tonight? The fifth-tier assessment dungeon?”

Fenric nodded. ”Yes.”

”How confident are you?” Aurora asked curiously.

Fenric raised an eyebrow. ”Why do you ask?”

”I was wondering if you could take Belle along,” she said. ”Of course, you’ll be compensated.”

Beside her, Belle immediately looked hopeful.

The ”2012” dungeon was considered a nightmare-level scenario for most Samsara.

But for Fenric, reaching an SSS-grade evaluation wasn’t all that difficult.

As long as one boarded the Ark ahead of time, SSS was practically guaranteed.

Bringing along one person wouldn’t make much difference.

However—

Business was business.

Fenric wouldn’t do anything for free.

”I’d say I’m 70–80% sure of getting an SSS-grade rating,” he said calmly. ”But the real question is... what are you offering in return?”

For Fenric, this dungeon was already in the bag. He might as well make the most of it.

After all, they could go to the trading center and have Belle Morwyn swear under the Samsara system’s fairness rules not to disclose the strategy. That way, the guide would remain his intellectual property.

”What!?” Aurora was visibly stunned.

Seventy to eighty percent? And he was aiming for an SSS evaluation?

That was insane.

If it had been anyone else, she’d have smacked them for bragging.

But it was Shura.

And Shura’s track record spoke for itself. His insight into dungeon mechanics was beyond extraordinary—a true genius.

Belle also looked astonished.

Even rewards from an SS-grade evaluation were incredible. An SSS-grade reward? That could skyrocket someone’s strength.

”Great God Shura,” Belle said sincerely, ”if you’re willing to take me through this dungeon, I’ll give you all the rewards except for the Samsara points.”

Fenric’s eyes lit up slightly.

An SSS-grade rating came with a golden treasure chest.

If Belle handed hers over too... he could get two in one run?

That was a massive win.

Still, he shook his head. ”Not enough.”

He wasn’t easily swayed—even if Aurora was technically an ally now.

”The SSS-grade rewards are massive,” Aurora admitted with a bitter smile. Then she glanced at her sister and teased, ”How about I give Belle to you?”

”Sis!” Belle blushed furiously.

Fenric deadpanned, ”Miss Aurora, that joke wasn’t funny.”

”Oh? You’re not satisfied with Belle?” Aurora chuckled, then turned serious. ”Fine then, Shura—just tell me what you want. If I have it, I’ll offer it.”

Fenric thought about it.

”Do you have anything that boosts attributes directly? Like the super soldier serum you gave me last time?”

Aurora let out a helpless laugh. ”That serum was one of a kind. Items that boost attributes are rare. I don’t have any right now.”

Fenric frowned slightly, deep in thought. ”Forget it. I can’t think of anything I really need at the moment. Can I come back to you when I do?”

”Of course!” she smiled. ”Just give me a call.”

The tone of that line felt oddly suggestive.

”...”

Only after speaking did Aurora realize what she had said, a faint flush coloring her face. Still, she didn’t try to take it back—just cast a glare at her giggling sister.

”One more thing,” Fenric added. ”I can take Belle into the dungeon, but she’ll need to swear under the system’s justice not to reveal the strategy.”

Under the system’s rules, such an oath was binding. Breaking it would result in instant obliteration.

Aurora and Belle exchanged a glance. After a brief pause, they both nodded in agreement.

Fenric smiled. ”In that case, happy cooperation!”

”Thank you, Shura!” Belle said gratefully.

Aurora nodded too, but she showed her gratitude through actions.

”Shura, I’ll keep gathering cooldown refresh cards for you. I’ll contact everyone I can and handle the trades.”

”Perfect,” Fenric said with a satisfied nod.

This was exactly why he agreed to bring Belle along.

Aurora Morwyn was very efficient—and having a friend with her kind of resources was always a good thing.

”Oh, right. Last time, I sold you the strategy for the first-level dungeon ’World War Z.’ It’s been a while now. Why haven’t I seen any movement?”

Aurora smiled and explained, ”The government organized a special ops team. They’re still in training. But the operation should launch soon.”
