Chapter 151: Bloodrune
Animals often felt and saw more than humans.
They weren’t called the best human friends for no reason!
When Alex had coursing emotions of anger and indignation flowing through him, Bo had been looking at him with similar eyes. It was as if Bo could read what Alex had been thinking alongside feeling his heart.
Because of those emotions, Bo pushed himself more. Instead of going at the Orc Rider like Alex had wanted him to, the wolf went for the silver wolf instead. He tried to help Alex as much as possible, believing in himself.
And because he was a wolf that could cause disturbance in a much stronger wolf than himself, Bo believed that he could tame the silver wolf.
He roared at him, but with his normal howls. The scar coming from the werewolf heritage shone brightly in golden color on his forehead.
And as he continued to spread his influence, Bo never stopped barking. He carried on with pain scratching his throat.
At last, Bo achieved what he wanted.
[Bo has tamed the Silver Wolf.]
[For the remaining of the dungeon run, you will be able to use the Silver Wolf like your pet. After that, he will disappear into the dungeon grounds.]
New energy went through Alex as he read those messages. His good partner really pushed himself to help him. He, just like Alex, was doing everything to gain the most experience out of this dungeon.
It was a new environment for both of them.

“Kill!” Alex shouted as he increased the pace.
As his sword dug deep enough to reach the bone, Alex shifted to thrusting only. He held his swords closely, shoving both weapons to one wound. It was quite hard to do, but he kept pushing himself to gain something new.
Everyone else was the same.
At last, the Orc Rider kicked the bucket.
[You have killed the Orc Rider Lv. 45]
[You have leveled up!]
[You have leveled up!]
[You have gained the soul fragment of the Orc Rider.]
Other than those precious messages, Alex picked up the orc’s sword. His homies got some of his equipment too… Dancing Shadow had received the Orc’s Slouch that had increased her inventory ten-fold.
Tomo had been particularly jealous of that, so she gave it to him.
Feeling awkward as she did it without any thought, Tomo Homie gave her his loot. They happily exchanged items, grinning at themselves as if already in love.
Others stared at them with wide smiles.
That was not the end of system messages, though.
[The Dungeon has recorded your party, Team Homies, extraordinary achievement.]
[Your party has received a new reward.]
[The Orc’s Strength Bloodrune(A) – you can use the rune on your weapon to receive an additional strength(STR) stat. The rune will increase 10% of your strength!]
“Fuck…” Pedro cursed as he received the same rune as everyone. He couldn’t use it as he was all about [INT]. It was totally useless to him, so he didn’t even think of using it for a little more strength that could help him in different subclass or night activities should he get a lady for himself.
Pedro also didn’t know if he could scratch should he get [INT] Bloodrune. Therefore, he just didn’t risk anything as he didn’t have much hope for himself and the system…
Everyone else was pretty content with the Bloodrune.
In fact, Tomo Homie got an excellent idea, “How about we see whether we can apply two bloodrunes on one weapon? Is your sword your primary sword?”
Dancing Shadow blinked her eyes, “Eh?”
Everyone else sneered.
As if not noticing them, Tomo Homie continued, “It looks like a good sword, so it should serve you for more levels. I want to give you my bloodrune and see whether we can apply two bloodrunes on one weapon.
But if you don’t want to waste it, you can keep it up for a new sword,” Tomo Homie smiled widely.
Dancing Shadow blushed, “Shouldn’t you give it to… Alex? His wolf helped us kill the boss without fighting him. If it weren’t for him, we wouldn’t get those rewards…”
Tomo Homie coughed, “He’s fine without additional bloodrune! I want to give it to you… Besides, it would be hard for us to reach this floor without you! We could’ve missed this boss if we were a day or two behind.
Just take it, please!” Tomo Homie explained.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHearing this and seeing Alex’s smile, Dancing Shadow embraced the bloodrune. It was a small, around the five centimeters, token-like item. She held it to her chest dearly, then smiled at Tomo Homie.
“Thank you, Tomo…” the shy lady whispered barely audibly.
Tomo Homie felt like a Cupid shot through his heart, “D-Do you want to go…”
[Tomo Homie: Alex! Tell me a synonym for a date! But not a date! I mean… a meeting with a female and male friend, solo!]
[Alexander Deathwill: Tell her where you want to take her then…]
[Tomo Homie: Genius!]
[Alexander Deathwill: Bruh.]
“Do you want to go bowling with me? Everyone is busy with exams, and since I am smarter than them, I can casually go outside!” Tomo Homie smiled, “I am pretty good at bowling too! My accuracy is spotless, so I also can teach you some good skills!”
“I’ve never gone out with friends before…” Dancing Shadow replied, then closed her eyes tightly as if she was about to cry, “I also have never done bowling with others…”
“Then I have a lot to teach you! No problem! It’s fine teaching others, you know?” Tomo Homie quickly reassured his friend, soothing her heart.
Dancing Shadow smiled, “Okay… I can go with you, Tomo…”
“Okay…” Tomo Homie blushed like a tomato.
While these two had their own sweet time, the dungeon system flashed the system message.
That was the end of their dungeon floor quest.
However, the reward wasn’t just going to the next floor.
[Because of your outstanding achievement, you can enter the last floor and fight the boss for the main reward.]
[Do you want to go now?]
