Chapter 367 Bella’s Devotion
Chapter 367 Bella\'s Devotion
Bella sat on top of a fallen wooden trunk, hovering her hands above the campfire to warm herself.
They decided to stay a little longer in Crow Forest, even though the temperature had started to drop considerably and the night had turned even darker.
After ensuring that the flames were big enough, Ambrose sat down beside his girlfriend and took out the brown token.
"That allows you to upgrade your class?" Bella asked curiously while leaning against Ambrose, trying to feel warmth both from her boyfriend and the campfire.
"It indeed does." Ambrose nodded. "I have already upgraded two times. First, it was Suicide Swordsman, then Blade Master. Both times, my strength increased astronomically."
"Are you planning to use it again?" Bella asked.
"Yeah, I\'ll try." Ambrose nodded. "It will take a while for it to finish upgrading. It might even take multiple days; I don\'t know."
He then took a deep breath and activated the token.
He sat silently, feeling his girlfriend\'s body pressing against his and the warmth of the campfire. However, after some time of waiting, nothing happened.
"Hmm…" Ambrose frowned. "Activate."
Bella looked curiously, but seeing her boyfriend\'s expression, it seemed like everything was not going as planned.
"It\'s not working." Ambrose said with a slight frustration in his tone. "I don\'t know why. Is this fake?"
Just in case, he checked the description, and it had the same exact text as the previous ones. It also looked perfectly similar.
\'Perhaps I can\'t upgrade any further?\'
He thought, but if that was the case, he was very disappointed.
"Maybe there is something you have to achieve before upgrading?" Bella guessed. "I know my father, and he wouldn\'t add something so powerful if it was easy to get hands on."
"You might be onto something." Ambrose nodded. "I have already found three of these. If one dojo focuses on finding these, they might be able to find a dozen or more.
"A dozen upgrades would be absolutely game-breaking, so there might be something I have to do first.
"Also, I now remembered that there was a text when I upgraded a second time. My first class had completed text. I must\'ve completed something.
"Also, there was the possibility of a third upgrade. I am not sure if it\'s the last one."
"Then you haven\'t completed your second upgrade yet!" Bella said and put her warm hand against her cheek, wondering something. "But what could it be?"
"I got the second token from Olympos. He didn\'t use it because he most likely couldn\'t and thought that it was impossible to upgrade a second time."
Ambrose said, and he wryly smiled. He wondered how Olympos would react after hearing about this.
"Did you do anything special to complete the Suicide Swordsman class?" Bella asked with her red, ruby-like eyes reflecting the campfire flames.
She again started to feel the coldness of the night, and she hugged her legs while leaning against Ambrose. The campfire flames started to die down slightly.
Ambrose grabbed a bunch of twigs and tossed them into the campfire, making the logs crackle and the flames heat up.
"Not that I recall," He said. "I have a theory, but I need to test it out."
"What is it?" Bella asked curiously, rubbing her hands together to warm herself. She wished she had taken some gloves.
It was quite warm in Amaterasu, and since she never walked outside during the night, she underestimated how cold it would get.
Ambrose wrapped his arm around her after seeing her shudder in the cold and pulled her closer.
"A level gap, maybe." Ambrose said. "I think the first upgrade was for levels below 50, and the second upgrade was for levels above 50.
"Since Olympos wasn\'t above 50 when he still had the token, it would make sense that the token didn\'t work for him.
"I think the third upgrade is for levels above 100. This way, a player wouldn\'t be able to upgrade their class infinitely, as they also have to play to get to a higher level."
"That makes sense." Bella nodded and asked. "What is your current level?"
Ambrose opened his interface briefly and said, "72."
"Wow, that is a lot, but still a long way."
"Yeah, oh well." Ambrose touched his nose and said, "I can still wait. It will take probably a few weeks to a month to reach level 100."
"Perhaps it\'s another way." Bella whispered while resting her head on his shoulder.
"I\'ll see eventually." He patted her head. "I\'ll also check out the forums once I log off. Maybe they already know."
"Ah, the time is getting quite late." Bella checked the time on her interface and sighed with a fleeting expression. "Should we return?"
"Feeling tired?" Ambrose asked and checked her face, but she looked rather relaxed.
"No, but it\'s getting a little bit late…" Bella\'s cheeks turned slightly pink, and she looked slightly flustered. "I don\'t want to keep you up too late."
"Mm, I have gotten used to it." Ambrose also felt his eyelids turn heavier. "However, you are correct. We have made great progress tonight."
"Mm." Bella sat down on his lap and wrapped her arms around his neck, then whispered with a blush. "I am ready."
"Mm." Ambrose nodded and flew high into the air.
The campfire\'s flames slowly died off, and only charred logs and twigs were left.
Above Amaterasu, a black blur moved across the air like a flying shadow and soon entered a building with the name \'Whispering Pages\' through the window.
As the window closed, inside the top floor of the bookstore, Ambrose lowered Bella down to the floor and said.
"Should we assign your stats first before you go to sleep?"
"All right." Bella sat down on the bed, leaning against the wall, and patted the spot beside her.
Ambrose removed his shoes and sat beside her. "You have 45 stat points after leveling up to level 8, right?"
"Mm." Bella opened the interface, looking at it with hazy eyes.
"For starters, add about twenty to Agility and the rest to Stamina. These should help you learn Nachbilder."
"Mm, done!" Bella assigned them quickly, closed the interface, and turned to him with a bright smile. "What are your plans for tomorrow?"
"A teaching session in the dojo. You should come there too." Ambrose said. "Nothing else, I think."
"I have a confession to make." Bella moved closer to him and suddenly sat on his lap, wrapping her arms around his neck. "Since you left Hightown, I\'ve seen dreams about you."
"Dreams?" Ambrose smiled. "I am honored."
"They weren\'t ordinary dreams." Bella shyly smiled and touched his ears in a playful manner, her fingers delicately touching his earrings. "They were naughtier kinds."
"Oh…" Ambrose felt his throat turn slightly parched, and he smiled awkwardly. "If you say something so bold, even I get flustered."
"Today was a nice date." Bella smiled sweetly with a deep blush on her cheeks.
"This was a date?" Ambrose chuckled and traced his hand across her thigh. "Not the most ordinary date in the world, that\'s for sure."
"I want to show my devotion to you." Bella lifted up her shirt, revealing her two small, perky breasts with pink nipples. "I adore you, and I am ready to show it."
Her cheeks were pink in embarrassment, but that only made her look dangerously adorable and beautiful. She emitted peak feminine beauty.
Ambrose\'s eyes widened in surprise, and his lips turned dry. This was not how he thought the day would go.
