Debuff Master

Chapter 387

The quest was quite straightforward.

[Delusional Patient]

[Climb the Sky Tower once again and prove you are not delusional to Wurttemberg.]

[Type: Time Attack Quest]

[Progress: 0% (Clear 0/1)]

[Time Limit: 5 hours]

[Reward: U-Grade Graduate Gear Purchase Coupon × 1]

[Warning: You will gain the title Delusional Patient if you fail to clear this quest within the time limit!]

All he had to do was reduce his tower clear record of seven and a half hours down to five. He would receive another powerful item as a reward if he were to succeed, but if he ended up failing the quest, he would have to live with the dishonorable title of Delusional Patient.

“You said you cleared it in seven and a half hours?”

“Around that?”

“And you can clear it in three or four hours if you attempt it again?”

“I did say that.”

“Then prove it.”

“How do you want me to prove myself?”

“Challenge the tower again and clear it within five hours. If you manage to prove yourself, then I will allow you to purchase another one of my strongest artifacts,” Wurttemberg said before he smirked and put on the pressure. “What do you say? Can you conquer this tower in under five hours? Ha! I thought so! You shouldn’t go around—“

“I will do it,” Siegfried nonchalantly agreed.

[Alert: You have accepted the Quest – Delusional Patient!]

The quest was accepted.

“Sure, I will prove it to you.”

“Ha! Look at this kid!”

“Why? I thought you wanted me to prove it?” Siegfried curtly retorted.

“Haha! Why don’t you just admit you’re delusional?”

“Well, we will see if I am delusional or not.”

“Geez... You really—”

“I will try to clear the tower and be back here in three hours.”

“W-What?!”

“But what are you going to do if I clear it in three hours? Will you give me something better?” Siegfried sheepishly said.

Wurttemberg looked annoyed as he scoffed and exclaimed, “Ha! Did you expect me to believe you if you doubled down? Fine, I’ll give you a special gift if you manage to conquer the tower again, but in three hours this time!”

A message popped up in front of Siegfried’s eyes.

Ding!

[Rewards: U-Grade Graduate Gear Purchase Coupon × 1, Wurttemberg’s Gift (If cleared in under three hours)]

A new quest reward was added with the condition of clearing the quest in under three hours.

‘I knew it! You have to adequately annoy these NPCs for them to fork things up!’ Siegfried happily thought as he walked over to the magic circle.

He turned around and said, “You cannot go back on your promise, Elder-nim.”

“Bah! Just focus on proving that you're not delusional, young man!”

“Okay.”

Siegfried infused his mana into the mana circle.

Flash!

He disappeared after the blinding flash of light.

“Tsk... Tsk...” Wurttemberg clicked his tongue and grumbled, “He’s quite skilled for his age, but why does he have to be a liar...”

The Legendary Blacksmith didn't believe a single word of Siegfried’s delusion.

***

Siegfried started a livestream as soon as he arrived at the Sky Tower: Second Floor, and the viewers rushed in like a tsunami.

This time, he changed the stream title to Sky Tower Time Attack.

“Hello everyone! I will be doing a time attack challenge and clear the tower in three hours.”

After addressing his viewers, Siegfried saw Bjergsen, the boss of the second floor.

“Y-You're...”

“Hi!” Siegfried replied and waved his hand.

“As expected, you failed in the upper floors—“ Please visit fr𝐞𝐞w𝒏.𝒸𝑜𝔪 website to read fastest update

Whoosh! Bam!

“You did...”

“What do you think of it?”

“I’m very satisfied.”

“Then, I hope you—“

“Yes, I know that you didn’t mean to deceive me.”

The duel ended with Comodos acknowledging Siegfried.

“It was a... good duel...” Comodos said with a smile.

“Please rest well,” Siegfried replied.

Then...

Boom!

Comodos was split in half, and he quickly vanished into thin air.

He had been holding his body together to speak for a bit with Siegfried.

Sparkle! Sparkle!

The Essence of the Strong dropped after Comodos died.

[Alert: You have obtained Essence of the Tower’s Strongest × 1!]

[Alert: You have obtained Top-Quality Essence of the Strong × 7!]

[Alert: You have obtained High-Quality Essence of the Strong × 30!]

Siegfried collected the essence and placed it into his Inventory.

Then, he turned around and said to the camera, “That was quite easy, wasn’t it?”

His Sky Tower clear time was exactly two hours and forty minutes.

***

Siegfried ended his livestream after shocking the viewers, and he walked over to the magic circle to go back to the first floor.

“Heok!”

Wurttemberg gasped in horror.

“Y-You! Don’t tell me.... you already conquered the tower?!”

“Yes, and I wasn’t delusional,” Siegfried curtly replied. He then smirked and added, “Let’s see... Only two hours and forty minutes? That’s not even three hours! Sigh... It’s too easy...”

“O-Oh my god...!”

“I think I can clear it in under two hours if I try it a few times. Hohoho!”

“...”

“It is time for you to keep your promise, Elder-nim.”

“Y-Yes.”

Wurttemberg held his end of the bargain.

[Alert: You have completed the Quest – Delusional Patient!]

[Alert: You may now purchase an additional U-Grade Graduate Gear!]

Siegfried was able to purchase another U-Grade Graduate Gear called Master’s Amulet.

[Alert: You have enhanced Shadow Swamp!]

[Alert: Shadow Swamp’s level has risen by ten!]

[Alert: A new effect has been added to Shadow Swamp!]

Siegfried’s other main debuff skill, Shadow Swamp, gained a new effect just like Blaze Field.

[Additional Effect: Ignore Status Ailment Resistance (All Ranks)]

The additional effect of Shadow Swamp ignored the resistance of the enemy, just like Blaze Field.

Siegfried couldn't help but think that the Debuff Master had no limits after seeing the additional effect. He recalled that Ulcera had been unaffected by Shadow Swamp due to his status ailment resistance, but it would no longer be the case the next time they met.

“Sigh... It’s all because my level is too low...” he blamed himself and lamented.

Fortunately, he had already ended his livestream. Otherwise, the viewers would have bombarded him with thumbs down and curses. He then proceeded to purchase the other Graduate Gears using the Essence of the Strong in his Inventory.

[Alert: You have obtained S-Grade Lucky Guy Earring!]

[Alert: You have obtained A-Grade Offensive Ring!]

[Alert: You have obtained A-Grade Offensive Ring!]

“Wow... This is quite flashy,” he muttered while looking at the accessories on his fingers, ears, and wrist. “Oh well, it makes me look rich, I guess?”

He was fine with flaunting his wealth, and he didn't have any issues with looking rich.

However, something else was still missing.

Siegfried turned toward Wurttemberg and flashed a sleazy grin.

“Hehe...! You will give me a special gift, right?”

“Y-Yes, I will...” Wurttemberg replied with a nod before he took out a treasure that he had been hiding for so many years.
