Vivian claimed a stave of fire from a crate, a twisted silver gilded staff in the shape of a serpent with an open mouth with an orange gem in its mouth. With a single thought through the awareness of equipping the object, feeding mana into it, the user could emit a steady stream of fire at an enemy target within fifteen meters of one's self. It was quite literally just like a flame thrower!

In Jack's crate was a multitude bags of gold, measuring out to be around approximately 1,000 gold in each. He simply shoved those into his inventory before turning to look at what the others were getting.

Kokei got a set of dark robes it seemed, something that would benefit him, compared to those shabby brown robes.

A small smile formed over his lips before he turned his gaze to Runa.

It seemed the other snow elf was getting a set of enchanted undergarments. She was just standing there staring at the items she was holding them up to the light which Vivian continued to emit from her orb.

Nakajima on the other hand was just staring at his box, he had broken it open, but there was hardly anything inside. Since he had died during this dungeon exercise, the Dungeon saw that he didn't contribute all that much.

So inside of the box was a simple piece of blue paper which had a blue print on it. On this particular blueprint was a Shoji, a traditional Japanese door window or room divider used in Japanese Architecture.

Jack looked at the door and then towards Nakajima. Whilst it wasn't much in the sense that it was a blueprint and simply allowed someone to learn how to make something, it was rare.

"What's with the sour face?" Jack asked curiously as he walked over to where he was standing, before reaching down and plucking the item from the crate.

His eyes then wondered down to the wooden box at their feet and there was a silver key. "Oh look, you get the unlock one of the doors." Jack uttered as he would roll up the paper and hold it out for him to take.

"You can keep that useless thing, I don't do building!" Nakajima snapped, swatting at the item, clearly not happy on how things turned out.

"Oh? Did you remember to pray to the statue?" Jack asked as he knelt down and took the key from the box, putting the blueprint in his own inventory instead.

Nakajima clenched his jaw. When one dies their prayer to the dungeon statue after their resurrection, ends the spell. So if they die, they will then appear at the entrance of the Dungeon. At least that was in the game.

If perhaps one didn't pray again, that is what would happen. However one could also believe they'd simply die instead in this world.

No one knew how much of the original functions still remained in this world.

Standing up, he would begin walking towards the corridor they had all once been going through earlier. His eyes were on the closest door to the room. Perhaps it was either the door to the stairs or it was a door to another dungeon room. He knew there were at least two to three levels. Sometimes the entire second level was the dungeon boss room, sometimes, it was just another set of rooms.

One thing was for sure, the deeper they went, the darker and colder it got in this dungeon.

So they four others would quickly follow after him, Runa and Vivian rushing in front of the two men as Kokei moved cautiously slow and Nakajima had angrily lost interest.

As Jack came up to the closest door, everyone's eyes was on his hand as he was holding out the key to the door's keyhole. As he pressed it inside and turned the nob, the door would jolt before being pulled up into the ceiling.
