The Paradise of Reincarnation Begins with Eriri.

"...dust to dust, ashes to ashes."

Kiyono Makoto walked to the Snowman BOSS with a calm expression and plunged his sword into the evil Snowman's weak point, its heart.

With a roar of resentment and despair, cracks began to appear on the evil snowman's body, and it eventually shattered into pieces on the ground. It hadn't done any damage from start to finish, which was extremely frustrating.

next second.

A cold, ruthless voice echoed in their minds.

[The final hidden boss has been detected and defeated]

[The instance is complete and I'll be returning soon...]

Chapter 22 Dungeon Settlement

A slight feeling of dizziness crept in.

踆·?陵児尔衣伞灵覇亻尔?Next second.

Kiyono Makoto and Kasumigaoka Utaha then appeared in the black sphere space.

"This is the first time I've known that a dungeon can end early..."

Kasumigaoka Utaha opened her beautiful eyes wide, her pretty face full of surprise, and a hint of confusion:

"That was the final boss of the dungeon... and you defeated it so easily?"

"Basic operation, don't overdo it."

"Something's not right. The script must have been written."

Kasumigaoka Utaha crossed her arms and couldn't help but complain:

"The normal way to clear the game is to carefully explore the dungeon, unravel the mystery, and finally face the BOSS."

"Then you have to go through a life-or-death battle. My junior brother, covered in blood, stands in front of me, shouting lines like 'friendship and bonds,' and I activate my power mode to unlock special CGs before I can finally defeat the BOSS."

"But my junior solved it so easily... That's not how it is in visual novels at all!"

Kiyono Makoto, hands in his pockets, looked at the upperclassman who had launched into a吐槽 (tu cao, a Chinese internet slang term for sarcastic or critical comments) mode:

"Didn't my senior say I opened a business?"

"Huh?"

"I've already started, if it still takes a near-death experience to defeat the BOSS, how are ordinary players supposed to survive?"

Makoto Kiyono's answer was perfectly justified:

"As a player using cheats, it's reasonable for him to easily defeat the BOSS, right?"

Kasumigaoka Utaha: "..."

hum.

The black sphere emitted a soft hum, followed by a light screen appearing out of thin air.

[Instance settlement complete]

[Reincarnator: Kiyono Makoto]

[Passage Rating: S]

You have eliminated 28 snowman clones, and you have gained 2,800 points.

[You defeated the hidden boss, the Evil Yeti: You have earned 1000 points]

[Dungeon difficulty level detected as Hard, reward rate increased by 200%... Your final reward is 7,600 points]

[Congratulations! You have been awarded MVP of the match. The quality of the completion treasure chest has been greatly improved.]

next second.

The words in mid-air transformed into streams of light, converging into a golden treasure chest that landed in front of Kiyono Makoto.

"It's a golden treasure chest?"

Kasumigaoka Utaha opened her beautiful eyes wide and looked over in shock.

Some players on the forum speculated that the park doesn't like players who just lie around and do nothing, but rather hopes that players will actively explore and perform well. The evidence is that there is no guaranteed score reward for clearing the dungeon, but rather a treasure chest is given based on the player's performance.

In short, there is no guaranteed minimum; it all depends on performance.

If players just lie around and do nothing the whole time, they will only get the lowest-level wooden treasure chest, which mostly contains junk like food, fresh water, and tissues.

Only players who perform well can upgrade the quality of treasure chests.

The higher the quality of the treasure chest, the higher the value of the items inside. Skills, items, points, and attribute points are all possible to be obtained from it.

However, over all this time, the highest level forum players have ever obtained is a silver treasure chest; no one has ever seen a gold treasure chest...

"Having cleared all the dungeons, the golden treasure chest is perfectly reasonable."

Kasumigaoka Utaha murmured to herself.

at the same time.

The light screen reappeared.

[Reincarnator: Kasumigaoka Utaha]

[Customs Clearance Rating: B]

Based on your overall contribution in the dungeon, you have earned a total of 1,800 points.

[Dungeon difficulty level detected as Hard; dungeon reward increased by 200%... Your final reward is 3600 points.]

Your performance was mediocre, your contribution to the dungeon was low, but the quality of the completion reward chests has slightly improved.

The light converged and transformed into a bronze treasure chest, which landed in front of Kasumigaoka Utaha.

The park has the ability to dynamically assign points; otherwise, support-style players would have no chance at all. That's why, even though the senior didn't kill a single snowman from beginning to end, she still got a lot of points.

"A bronze treasure chest?"

Kasumigaoka Utaha's pretty face remained calm, showing no sign of disappointment.

Although she contributed during the process of clearing the dungeon, her contribution was indeed very low compared to Kiyono Makoto, so the current gains are already a pleasant surprise.

"Next up is unpacking time."

Kiyono Makoto stretched out his right hand and placed it on the golden treasure chest in front of him.

He and his senior are now officially partners, so there's no need to hide it.

With a flash of golden light, the treasure chest disappeared, eventually solidifying into a card at Kiyono Makoto's fingertip.

[Item: Skill Card]

[Note: After crushing, you will randomly obtain one skill obtained from this dungeon.]

"It's a skill card."

Kiyono Makoto displayed the item's attributes, then gently pinched it with his fingertips.

Click.

The skill card shattered silently, transforming into a beam of light that entered Kiyono Makoto's body.

Kiyono Makoto opened the character panel, and the skill bar was no longer empty; instead, a small ukiyo-e icon appeared.

[Skill: Water Magic]

[Quality: Mutant]

[Effects: Soothing, Defense, Control]

[Hidden effect: ???]

Skill Level: LV1

[Note: You can directly use points to upgrade your skill level, or you can improve it through practice.]

“Ice and snow are formed from the condensation of water, so water magic is barely a possibility…” Kiyono Makoto was speechless. “What’s with the mutation quality?”

"Well, I have seen it on the forum." Kasumigaoka Utaha crossed her arms and her voice returned to its lazy tone, "Mutated quality skills usually have unexpected effects. They may become more powerful or weaker. In short, it all depends on luck."

"Okay, whatever."

Makoto Kiyono quickly adjusted his mindset:

"Something is better than nothing. I'll test the effect when I have time."

As she spoke, Kasumigaoka Utaha opened the treasure chest in front of her, and a snowball fell out of thin air and appeared in her hand.

Kiyono Makoto: "..."

Kasumigaoka Utaha: "..."

Hey, this is supposed to be a bronze treasure chest, this is ridiculous!

“Hey, this isn’t an ordinary snowball.” Kasumigaoka Utaha’s eyes quickly brightened. “It’s a special item. Once thrown, it can create frost and slowing effects within its range… It’s a pity it’s a consumable item; once it’s used up, it’s gone. Besides that, I also gained a free attribute point, which is pretty good.”

"Let's get back to reality." Kiyono Makoto nodded slightly. "Speaking of which, does Senpai need the amusement park's help with her treatment?"

"No." Kasumigaoka Utaha crossed her arms and shook her head in refusal. "Players have summarized their experiences on the forums. Unless you're missing an arm or a leg, or are cursed, don't let Paradise heal you. It's ridiculously expensive."

Kiyono Makoto nodded: "That's what capitalism is like."

"That cheater has no right to speak." Kasumigaoka Utaha scolded with bright eyes, "Although I'm very tired, I'm not seriously injured. I just need to go back and rest for a couple of days... Junior, let's go back."

"..."

The space was slightly distorted.

The two figures appeared out of thin air in the park.

The sky was already turning a pale white, and the night had passed quietly without us even realizing it.

"call……"

Kasumigaoka Utaha raised her hand to cover her mouth, yawned wearily, and was about to say goodbye and go home when her eyes suddenly shifted:

"Wait... Junior, your newly mastered water magic seems to have healing effects. Shall we try it now?"
