Chapter 500 Upgrade, LV.9!
"Gods in the dungeon? Interesting!"
As the black dragon's mental space collapsed, Roy's consciousness gradually returned to his body. He pondered the words left behind by the goddess Fube, and he had probably guessed the identities of the nine gods he had seen.
According to ancient myths, the twelve Titans were the twelve children born from the union of Gaia, the Earth Mother, and Uranus, the Sky God.
Cronus will replace Uranus as the second generation of gods to rule the heavens.
The situation in this world is completely different.
There are no children among the gods; they are all primordial deities born of the world, immortal and indestructible.
After wreaking havoc in the heavens for countless years, the gods grew weary and agreed to cease using their divine power, collectively descending to the mortal realm to play a game of raising and nurturing. Zeus, Uranus, and Odin were respected by many gods and revered as "great gods," but they did not reach the level of god-kings.
Roy analyzed the intelligence he had gathered in his mind.
According to the history known to the humans of the lower realm, Uranus was the first god to descend to the lower realm, bestowing upon them the grace to fight against monsters, using his power to help suppress the dungeons, and assisting in the construction of Orario.
The black dragon was sealed away before Uranus descended to the mortal realm.
Therefore, it can be concluded that the twelve Titans appeared in the lower realms earlier than Uranus.
Roy frowned: Would the Titans, who were in the lower realms even earlier than Uranus, abide by the covenant of the gods—not to use their divine power in the lower realms?
The answer to this question is almost effortless!
The black dragon devoured nine of the twelve Titans, leaving three gods hidden in the dungeon. Without divine power, they could not have survived.
"The strongest monster, the Black Dragon, has been defeated. Is the next battle between humans and gods? I'm really looking forward to it!" Roy's lips curled up slightly.
Before that, let him get the reward from the black dragon. More than a year has passed since he was tricked by Dionysus.
He finally got rid of the Black Dragon, his biggest threat!
The resources obtained from the world of Akame ga Kill! are almost exhausted. The Time Freeze Card and the World Origin are not enough to repay the debt, and even Roy is feeling the pinch.
[Successfully defeated the Black Dragon! Congratulations on obtaining 10000 Free Attribute Points, Black Dragon Gem, Dragon King Halberd, 5 Legendary Selection Chests, and a Divine Core!]

Roy quickly scanned the information on the reward panel, his heart pounding with excitement: 10000 free attribute points + two pieces of near-god-tier equipment.
+ Five legendary selectable treasure chests + God Cores, it was worth all his hard work, this is the richest reward he has ever received.
By making full use of these rewards, he and his girls' combat power will increase significantly, which will more or less increase their success rate when conquering dungeons later.
More importantly, there's another notification panel.
[Great achievement completed, ready to upgrade to LV.9!]
As expected, Roy slew the Black Dragon, whose difficulty exceeded LV.10, and achieved the great feat of leveling up. Roy's breathing became rapid and heavy as a result.
This feeling of excitement is something I've never experienced before!
LV.9!
This level is the highest level that adventurers can reach so far using the grace of the gods; only the former empress and the current Alphia have achieved it!
Now he too must climb that highest peak!
With his stats at LV.8 already at their limit in the world of Akame ga Kill!, there was no need to hesitate. Roy clicked "Update Stats," followed by "Level Up!"
On the Grace interface, amidst dazzling golden light, the old LV.8 full SSS panel became distorted and gradually faded away, while the new LV.9 panel emerged.
[Congratulations on reaching LV.9! You can now choose from the following development abilities: Healer, Mystic, or Swordsman!]
The "hunter" who was like a dog skin plaster didn't show up, which was rare. Roy fell into deep thought. Killing the black dragon also gave him 10000 free attribute points at LV.8. If nothing unexpected happened, he would convert them into experience points for developing his abilities.
Therefore, we need to be cautious about the next development capability.
The extremely high amount of experience points forces an upgrade, and this development ability can be used immediately.
After much hesitation, Roy made his choice.
[Development capability selected is mysterious!]
[Due to the significant gap between LV.8 and LV.9, attribute points are incompatible. 10000 free attribute points have been converted into experience points for development. Congratulations to Adventurer (B→S) and Mystic (I→C)!]
Just two development abilities? Roy frowned. He had thought his development abilities would all be upgraded, after all, it was an unprecedented experience package.
"Hahaha!"
When Roy saw the letter "S", his furrowed brows relaxed, and a satisfied smile appeared on his face.
As expected of 10000 free attribute points, his "adventure" development ability has increased by two levels!
The development capability level corresponding to LV.9 is A.
S-level development ability is the realm of LV.10, a level that is absolutely unprecedented!
There are many mages among adventurers, but only Alphia has trained her "magic" to C-rank. The development abilities of the Empress, Maxim, and others are probably around the same level.
During his previous extreme operation and battle against the Black Dragon, the B-level "adventure" caused his LV.8 ability value to explode, even reaching the threshold of LV.10!
The S-rank "Adventure," when fully activated, brings such a terrifying boost that Roy couldn't even imagine what level his ability would reach.
Suddenly, Roy shook his head and smiled.
There needs to be enough pressure!
With his promotion to LV.9 and the stats he had previously broken through to the limit, he was practically unmatched. It was difficult to even activate "Adventure," let alone push him to the limit and unleash that kind of amplification under dire circumstances!
Perhaps only an unknown dungeon could do that!

Looking at his incredibly luxurious buff panel and the rewards dropped by the Black Dragon, Roy, with his Divine Sky, Ecstasy Fimbull, and Superior Transfer buffs, couldn't wait to enter the dungeon for an adventure.
Whether it's the feud between the gods and the dungeons, or the Titans hidden in the labyrinth!
Roy will be dragged out step by step!
However, with the great battle just over, the intense exploration of the dungeon was almost unbearable, not to mention the adventurers. Even Roy himself was finding it hard to keep up; he wasn't a heartless machine.
Roy slowly opened his eyes, his large hand still holding Alphia's soft, boneless hand, and a familiar, confident smile appeared on his handsome lips.
Alphia said softly, "You're back?"
"Yes, it's finally over!" Roy laughed. In the spiritual realm, the final battle to annihilate the Titan God's spirit and defeat the Black Dragon had come to a perfect end!
There is a time difference between the spiritual realm and the real world.
He stayed in the mental realm for nearly half an hour, while in reality, only a few seconds passed in the outside world.
"Then you should comfort your girls properly!" Alphia withdrew her small hand from Roy's palm, turned gracefully, and walked away into the distance, leaving Roy with only a beautiful and elegant back view.
Unlike before when she was jealous of Roy and Ryu's kiss, Alphia was very calm this time.
Back in this world, Roy was no longer hers alone. Alphia had known this for a long time, but the madness of that time was deeply etched in her memory, a precious memory that belonged only to them.
"Commander!!"
Roy looked at Alphia with lingering affection until a cry filled with relief, elation, and endless longing rang in his ears.
Tione, like a lithe female leopard pouncing on its prey, rushed towards him with a wild aura mixed with sunshine, sweat, and the smoke of battle, her exquisitely soft body crashing into Roy's arms.
The Amazonian girl's astonishing impact caused Roy to involuntarily take a half-step back.
Tiony clung tightly to Roy's waist and back, her burning body heat and pounding heartbeat transmitted through their skin. "Captain, thank goodness! Thank goodness! I knew it, I knew you'd be alright!"
Her voice was thick with sobs, completely lacking the cheerful and unrestrained spirit characteristic of Amazons. Hot tears streamed down her face, pattering against Roy's chest.
"I'm back!"
Roy said softly, having spent the year with Alphia in the world of Crimson Eyes, he could imagine how terrified his girls were.
"Commander!"
"Lord Roy, waaaaaah!"
"My dear husband, I miss you so much!"
Following closely behind Tione, more than a dozen shouts rang out simultaneously, and Tiona, Alicia, Algana, and others rushed forward like shadows.
Lefia's delicate body trembled, carrying a cool, fragrant scent and suppressed sobs. She rested her forehead on Roy's arm, and silent tears slid down her cheeks like broken pearls.
Anya sobbed and whimpered, rubbing her cheek and furry ears against Roy's other side, her tail tightly wrapped around his calf.
Girls of different races and styles surrounded Roy, as if they had found a safe haven. They surged in from all directions, using all their strength to hold Roy, whom they had lost and found again, tightly!
Everyone is afraid that he will disappear again.
The vibrant young girls formed a wave of love and longing, completely overwhelming Roy's figure.
"Isn't he back now? It's alright, it's all over now—" Roy comforted them one by one, patting their heads here and pinching their cheeks there, so busy that he had no time to deal with anything else.
Roy experiences a mix of joy and pain when faced with girls full of affection. The fragrance is rich, the bodies intertwine, and the experience is indescribable. However, he has to soothe each girl, making the task no less troublesome than fighting the Black Dragon again.
"Serves you right!"
Liu stood not far away, watching the flustered Roy pout her rosy lips, looking cute and charming. She chuckled inwardly, thinking how much they were worried about her.
She wasn't in a hurry to go up and stick it on.
With Roy's scent lingering on her lips, Ryu fully felt the reality of his return, and could now leave this brief moment to her other sisters.
For more than a year, the girls in the clan were absent-minded and lost in thought. Every day, Ryu could clearly feel Roy's importance to her family.
Just like the ecstatic reunion of the Astrea Familia girls with Roy, regardless of identity, strength, or status, people all over the world witnessed Roy's slash piercing the void, engulfing the black dragon, and completely ending the calamity, and were plunged into a deathly silence.
The next second, a burst of enthusiastic cheers erupted.
"Ohhhhhhhh!!"
"It's a success!"
"The Black Dragon—the Black Dragon has been slain!"
From incredulous murmurs to uncontrollable shouts of excitement, a tremendous shock swept through everyone's hearts like a tsunami.
"Waaaaaah!"
"We won! We won!!"
The joy of victory, the cries, the roars, the laughter—countless sounds intertwined and converged into a deafening cheer that pierced the sky!
On the battlefield, tears mingled with blood streamed freely from the scarred faces of the adventurers—a testament to the glory of the living.
As adventurers, they survived!
Orario.
Looking at the images in the divine mirror, whether it was the bustling streets and alleys or the towering Tower of Babel, the shock and joy of the people and gods in the lower realm overwhelmed the fear and despair that had accumulated for thousands of years.
The black dragon, a calamity that shrouded the entire world like a dark nightmare, has truly been slain!
Hermes stood at the very front.
Freya, Loki, Hephaestus, Astrea, and the others were all drawn to it.
Hermes, his face flushed with excitement, spread his arms wide and proclaimed, "Gentlemen, we can now proudly declare that a hero has been born! This is a great era that surpasses any previous one!"
"A constellation of stars, a new era has begun!"
