3—Seraph’s Divine Tear: Boosts the user’s all healing and recovering skills’ effects by 200%, and all healing-type skills gain Divine Cleanse, removing all types of negative status effects with every heal or recovery. Duration: 1 minute. After the duration is over, the user will be mentally exhausted and have significantly reduced Mana recovery for ten minutes.
4—Rune of Transcendent Veil: Activating with this rune will make the user absolute invisibility to eyes and all senses, absolute intangibility to pass through physical or magical phenomena, and absolute shifting to move anywhere your vision lays upon instantly…for 1 minute. Once the effect wears off, the user will be put to sleep for 1 hour.
5—Gourd of Chronus Laias Emberwine: Drinking this wine causes the user’s perception of time to accelerate. During the effect, the user can rewind time over his body up to 5 seconds back, such as rewinding an injured part to make it like it wasn’t injured at all. The gourd contains 10 ml of wine, and it is recommended to drink only 1 ml at most. Drinking more might cause the user’s mind to enter Temporal Madness. Once the effect wears off, the user’s perception of time is distorted, and their mind becomes sluggish.
Almond didn’t show the last two consumable items after he saw that the first three were very powerful and could be trump cards. He directly snatched the last two legendary consumable items once Mira and Finn opened them since they had won those two rounds.
While others were rolling dice for the next ten resource boxes, Almond had finished reading the effects of the last two items, and he was absolutely stoked.
‘Both are crazily awesome and useful. That rune can be useful to investigate something, and its best use is to use it in the Battlefield of the Mightiest at a crucial time.’
‘As for that wine…it’s a perfect buff for me to win any fights,’ Almond’s eyes glinted. ‘Moreover, it has ten uses total. Freaking awesome.’
Meanwhile, the party continued as Natalia won the first round of Random Resource Box opening.
She opened the box and got a Banana, her expression twisting, “What the fuck? Does it want me to put this banana in my ass? I was expecting something better, tsk.”
“…”
“…”
“…”
Some boys even gulped since Natalia’s figure was fairly plump at the right places, and her words made their imaginations run wild for a moment.
“It increases Stamina by 5 points. Not bad,” Lily said as she inspected the Banana.
“Alright, if the rewards from these resource boxes are small like this, the one who wins to open the box can eat whatever they get from the box,” Almond said before turning to Natalia and smiling, “Shove it up your ass-I mean mouth.”
“Hahahaha,”
“Pfff…”
Everyone burst out laughing.
Natalia was unfazed as she simply smirked and ate the banana after peeling, “Yummy.”
The next round for the second random resource box began soon.
In the end, all ten resource boxes contained fruits that gave a random number of stats. Almond also won a box opening, and the Apple he got had the highest stat-increasing boost—20 points in Strength.
None other got 20 stat-point increment fruit in other boxes.
But Almond didn’t need that fruit, so he gave it to Lily.
Afterward, everyone ate and drank for a while, some even becoming wasted with drunkness.
“Almond! I will surpass you!” Jian shouted with a red face as he shattered his glass on the ground.
“No, you will not! I will do that!” Noah’s drunk face was stern as he drew his sword.
“I…will surpass *burp*, too.” Xavier howled.
“Geez, these guys have no control. Dumbasses. *Hiccup* Come on, ladies, why don’t you all undress, and we get all hanky-panky, hehe. It’ll be fun.”
“…Natalia, you’re drunk as fuck right now. Do you even know what you’re saying?” Kira was speechless.
“Stop undressing, Kayla! OMG!”
“You too, Talia!”
“Kira, stop them.”
*BOOM!*
“What are you looking at, you rascals!”
“Don’t attack them, Eliara!”

“Everyone is drunk except for me,” Emma chugged another glass as she sat at the table and watched the comedy unfolding before her. “Alcohol effect is automatically absorbed by my Innate physique…I don’t know if I should feel happy or sad.”
“Well, It’s time to make them sober,” Lily wryly said and turned to Emma, “Why don’t you remove their alcohol effects from them? You can do that, right?”
“True, that should be possible if she can utilize her powers,” Almond nodded, his eyes curious. “If you can understand all types of poisons that enter you, then it’s imperative that you understand their structure and their anti-body, which you already automatically produce since poison does not affect you.”
Emma’s eyes glinted as she stood up, “I’ll try.”
After several minutes of using her Mana to create anti-drunkness and giving her Mana that property, she injected everyone with Mana Needles she created, draining everyone’s drunkness out of them.
Then, a series of embarrassment and laughter occurred in the group before Almond made everyone sit at the table as he wanted to announce something before they left.
“We will go to the 6th Floor’s Heroic Boss challenge in its 4th cycle on 27th December.”
Everyone was dumbfounded while Almond continued.
“We have nine days, so make sure all of you become powerful enough instead of wasting time on stupid and useless things.”
“Wait, boss. Are we going to fight against a stronger version of Heroic Boss since we are going on the 4th cycle? Isn’t that dangerous?” Marcus scratched his head.
“It’s not,” Almond faintly smiled. “I’ve already confirmed by asking the labyrinth about it. Although it doesn’t always answer, it sometimes does, and I got an answer to this question. Heroic Challenge is unaffected by the Labyrinth’s cycles. The difficulty remains the same.”
Everyone heaved a sigh of relief and felt thrilled at this news.
Afterward, everyone had some simple snacks and talked for a bit as they booked their tickets and started leaving one by one after saying farewell.
The party lasted for over five hours as it was six o’ clock in the evening when everyone finally left.
