The Dungeon Conquerors: Journey to the Peak

On their way, Rein and his two girls did not have much trouble except for a few flying strange beasts who attacked them. But all of them were quite weak, so Luna was able to kill them alone by just waving her hands.

The single affinity that Luna was awakened was "Star". To Rein it sounded like a powerful ability but the royal family had a special bloodline where awakening the star affinity was not very rare.

This star affinity was especially useful for boosting other abilities. So without a second affinity, the true value of the star affinity could not be realised. That was the reason why Luna was not given much attention. If she had a second affinity no matter how common it was, she would have become a valuable member of the royal family and would be given a lot of attention as a potential future powerhouse.

Obviously when this incident happened Luna was very sad and disappointed. But now after spending the last three years with her beloved Rein, she had come to be grateful for this incident as without she having only the star affinity, she would have been more valued in the royal family and the king would never have made her Rein's finance.

The star did have some offensive capability but it was very limited. The technique that Luna used to kill all the bird strange beasts was a new technique that she, Lopas and Rein had created together.

Normally a star was supposed to help Affinities to shine but Rein told Luna the concept of a lone Star, where instead of depending on others and boosting them, the star itself took to the battlefield. This concept resonated with Luna very deeply and she was able to utilise this line of thinking to come up with her offensive moveset.

Luna's talent was also a big deal in this matter. Her talent was called "Willful Alteration". This was a talent that allowed her to transform magic depending on her own will.

Normally the transformation that this ability was able to make was not that big. So it was not considered too useful. But if the willpower was strong enough, even big changes could be made. And that was exactly what had happened with Luna.

...

After reaching the count's territory, all three of them immediately went to meet with the count. After reaching his villa and informing the count about their identity, the aged count himself came to welcome them.

That was normal as not only a genius like Rein was here, the only daughter of the Leonance family and one of the princesses herself was here. If he himself did not come out to welcome them then that would be disrespectful.

After welcoming everyone in, the count first wanted to give them the best possible hospitality. But Rein did not want to waste too much and told the count it would be alright to have this celebration after they were down with the mission. So Rein asked him about the strange beast that was their target this time.

The count was happy to find that the people sent by the academy this time were serious about the mission. Actually he was a bit conflicted after knowing their age as all of them looked too young. But after talking with them a little bit, he was able to understand that these children were quite intelligent.

At the same time, he was also aware of Rein's accomplishments from a few years back. If this boy was a rank 3 mage even at that time, then there was a high possibility that currently he was a rank 3 mage. Actually there was a huge gap between rank 2 and rank 3. So it was unlikely for the genius to maintain his speed even in this rank. But as the academy had sent them to get rid of a rank 3 monster, he was confident that the boy was at least a rank 3 mage or he would not be sent here for the mission.

So believing in these young geniuses, the count told them everything he knew about the strange beast. As he had fought the beast before, he was very familiar with the attack patterns and the Abilities of the beasts. So Rein and his group were able to get a lot of information from the count.

The strange beast turned out to be a giant dragonfly. It could not only produce powerful hellfire, the movement speed of the strange beast was also top tier. That was the reason why the count was having too much trouble with it.

The count also told the group about all the spells that the beast had used in their battle and even told them about a few weaknesses that he had managed to notice. From this discussion, Rein found that the count was actually a very wise person and was limited by his potential. If his talent and affinity was just a little bit better, he would have been able to go further in the path of magic.

After learning more about the strange beast, Rein was confident in Lopas' chances of defeating it. Even though Luna was using her ability in an offensive way, that did not mean that her supporting capability had disappeared. So if she could boost Lopas a little bit, then her chances to win would increase by a huge margin.

...

After the discussion with the count was over, Rein held a meeting with his two lovers and told them about his plan. They immediately agreed and reassured Rein that they would definitely be able to win without any problem. Rein also believed in his girls but he still was going to keep an eye on them. So it was finally decided that they would confront the strange beast the next day.

So for that reason, everyone retired to bed early. With the restrictions on his abilities loosened, Rein did not need to sleep much now, she instead of sleeping he started using his spatial sense to find information that might be useful for their mission. Just like that, the first day of the mission was over.
