My Charity System made me too OP
Chapter 30 Change of Plans
With the dungeon destroyed, Leon and Luna walked forward through the now eerily silent sewers. The pungent air, once filled with the scurrying sounds of plague rats, had become unsettlingly calm. Shadows danced along the damp stone walls as their footsteps echoed through the empty tunnels.
"It''s strange," Luna murmured, glancing around. "It feels like the sewers are a completely different place now."
Leon nodded. "Without the dungeon core binding them, the plague rats must''ve abandoned this area entirely. Let''s hope they don''t regroup somewhere else."
Luna smirked. "If they do, we''ll just clear them out again."
Leon glanced back at her. "Don''t get overconfident. We got lucky—my Aether Magic works well against dark creatures. Without it, we might not have made it out alive," he said, though he thought privately, I would''ve made a break for it if things got that bad.
"Yeah, yeah," Luna said with a casual wave of her hand, but then paused, giving him a thoughtful look. "Wait. You''re strong against dark-type creatures, right?"
Leon nodded, curious. "Yeah, why?"
A grin spread across Luna''s face. "Then you''re in luck. Just like these sewers, the cemetery''s been neglected by that idiot lord. Last time I passed by, there were a lot of skeletons and other undead wandering around. There might even be a dungeon there now"
Leon''s eyes lit up. "Let''s go check it out, then."
Without wasting any time, they climbed out of the sewers and made their way toward the cemetery. The graveyard, once maintained by priests and guards who periodically blessed the grounds, had been left abandoned for over five months since Luna''s father''s death. Now, thanks to the accumulating mana and miasma, the grounds were rumored to be crawling with the restless dead.
Standing outside the cemetery, Leon surveyed the graveyard. "This place has really turned out like this," he sighed, observing the many graves that had already been dug open, the bodies beneath them starting to claw their way out and roam restlessly.
"Hmm, if the bodies are digging themselves out, that means there''s a high-ranking undead here," Leon said, glancing at Luna.
Luna nodded as he got ready, while Leon also took out his staff, ''Skeletons and Zombies, against them I should try to save as much as mana for the last boss , after all Undead Monsters usually have high HP'' Leon thought as he looked at his Mortal Swordsmanship.
"It seems it''s time to use you," he mumbled to himself as he clenched the Plague Bearer Sword. ''Though, I don''t think you''ll do much damage to the undead,'' he pondered, sheathing the sword and instead drawing another weapon. He pulled out a dagger and handed it to Luna.
"What is this?" she wondered as she examined the dagger.
"This is a Blessed weapon; it deals 100% more damage to undead," Leon explained. These were old weapons once wielded by the guards who patrolled the cemetery.
"They were blessed by a priest but were never used, so they still retain their holy blessing—another good find stolen by Rosleia for me," he added, a hint of pride in his voice.
Not to mention...
[You have donated: Holy Blessed Dagger (Uncommon)]
[You have gained: Holy Dagger (Uncommon)]
Leon looked at the rewards with satisfaction. The blessing was no longer limited; it would now permanently retain its holy power. No matter how much he used it, the blessing wouldn''t wear off.
"Now you can really make a difference against the undead," he said, a determined glint in his eyes. Luna nodded, gripping the dagger tightly, feeling its weight and significance. "Let''s clear this place out."
"And this time, you can level up after all the undead are magical beings," Luna said, her excitement evident.
Leon nodded. ''Well, I was already leveling up, but now my speed will increase even more,'' he thought inwardly, glancing at his stats. He was currently at Level 51 of Tier I.
"Let''s get this done, then," he replied, determination fueling his steps. With Luna by his side, he felt more confident facing the undead that awaited them in the cemetery.
