"Remember, never let anyone see your abilities, especially your Upgrade Skill."

"Once someone finds out about it, we'll be in big trouble."

Because it was a skill from the System, Aston didn't 'lie'. So, although Hestia was shocked by the changes in his Status, after thinking for a long time, she couldn't figure out why Aston obtained this skill. Hestia eventually gave up and decided not to dwell on it.

Anyway, this skill is beneficial to Aston, and its advantages are significant. There's no need for Hestia to ponder too much on how he acquired it. 

However, Hestia obviously also understood the significance of Aston's Upgrade Skill, so she sternly warned him that he must not reveal this skill to others.

Naturally, Aston would not be stupid about this, and agreed with the same seriousness.

In addition, Hestia was also very concerned about Aston's other magic and skills, but she was not very good at these, so she didn't have any useful suggestions. They simply have a brief exchange.

The next morning, Aston gets up early, completes his morning routine, and heads to Babel.

After buying twenty bottles of recovery potions in Babel and depleting his valis, Aston directly headed to the dungeon.

Yesterday, Aston was only active on the second floor. Today, Aston is planning to go to the third floor. 

Unlike yesterday, the recovery potions are fully prepared.

With enough recovery potions, Aston felt that with his strength, he should be able to handle the first ten floors as long as he is careful. Even if his melee strength is insufficient, he has magic to compensate.

In terms of magic, he has the passive ability of the Void Furnace, which can instantly restore magic power.

As long as he isn't surrounded by too many monsters, with his magic, there should be no problem.

Fire Ring is a growth-type magic, and its power depends on the strength of one's magic power.

His current magic power is not very strong. Even if Fire Ring has the effect of absorbing magic from the outside world to increase its power, and even if he has the passive recovery ability of Void Furnace, Aston will not just think that he can do whatever he wants in the dungeon.

After all, some powerful monsters completely resist his current magical power. Even if they don't resist, if there are too many monsters, his magic won't be able to eliminate them all instantly, and he will have to resort to melee combat. 

Moreover, Aston hasn't tested the recovery mechanism of the Void Furnace yet.

Although he has leveled up twice, and his magic power has increased somewhat, it hasn't increased much.

He can't determine whether it's instant recovery or if the recovery speed gradually decreases with excessive magic power consumption.

Of course, the most important point is that the experience points obtained from the monsters on the second floor have decreased again after his upgrade.

As soon as he entered the dungeon, Aston rushed straight to the third floor, following the System's map.

The dungeon was so big that it took Aston half an hour to enter the third level.

The monsters on the third floor have not changed, they are still the same.

However, their strength has increased slightly compared to the first two floors.

This can be seen from the experience points Aston gained after killing the small goblins on the third floor. 

"Ding!! small Goblin was killed, get 5 experience points!!!"

"Ding!! small Lizard was killed, get 5 experience points!!!"

"Ding!! small Frog Shooter was killed, get 5 experience points!!!"

"Ding!! Host used Sharingan continuously and gained 5 Sharingan experience points!"

"Ding!!..."

After spending an hour on the third floor and gaining nearly a hundred experience points and 20 Sharingan experience points, Aston sets out again toward the next floor.

Today's main goal is to explore new floors and see how far he can adventure. Therefore, Aston isn't attached to the third floor. After testing the monsters on the third floor a bit, confirming that they pose no threat to him, he moves on to the fourth floor.

Soon, Aston entered the fourth floor.

"Ding!! Kobold was killed, get 10 experience points!!!"

"Ding!! small Goblin was killed, get 10 experience points!!!"

The strength of the monsters on the fourth floor is slightly higher than that of the third floor. They have stronger attack power, and their combat is more agile, barely holding up for a moment in Aston's hands.

However, it's still not enough.

But the experience points have increased; from 5 points, it has become 10 points.

After spending an hour on the fourth floor, Aston welcomes the first level-up of the day. 

"Ding!!! The experience value is full. The host level has been improved. Current level is 4."

"Ding!! Congratulations to the host for upgrading. Rewarding the host with a Sub-profession Card!!!"

"Sure enough, I will get a reward every time I level up!!!" Listening to the familiar reminder, Aston ignored the changes in his body and looked at the card floating in the System Space, exuding a faint fluorescence light.

Sub-profession Card: After using it, you will randomly obtain a Master-level Inheritance, allowing the host to obtain a Sub-profession.

Sub-profession… should I say it's worthy of being a game leveling system.

Most games have Sub-professions.

"I wonder what secondary profession I can get."

"System, use the Sub-profession Card." Aston muttered in his heart, and then used the reward he just received.

"Ding!! Use the Sub-profession Card, congratulations to the host for obtaining the inheritance of the Alchemist Master!!!"

"The next level is a Grandmaster-level Alchemist. Please keep up the good work!!!"

As the system's voice fell, Aston felt that a large amount of information related to Alchemists was pouring into his mind. This huge amount of information appeared in Aston's mind like a trickle, the amount of information was too huge, and the headache was inevitable.

Simultaneously, as the alchemist's inheritance information appeared in his mind, his body also underwent very subtle changes.

That was the experience of an Alchemist. Aston felt as if he had been immersed in medicine for hundreds of years. It was the physical instinct of an Alchemist Master.

He knew that the inheritance of the Alchemist Master transformed his own body, allowing him to perfectly grasp this inheritance and instantly become a perfect master-level alchemist.

Soon, this transformation was over.

After undergoing the transformation, Aston felt like he was in a state of ecstasy.

"So, this is a master-level alchemist!"

"This dedication to alchemy is truly devout!!" With a face full of joy, Aston whispered his inner thoughts.

A master-level alchemist already delves into the realm of divine craftsmanship, and divine craftsmanship should be on par with the deities in this world.

In other words, in terms of making potions, he is already the number one person among various medical Gods. 

There are some gods that are related to medicine, but are only peripheral, and they cannot compare with Aston in this aspect.

A happy expression hung on his face for a full minute before Aston calmed down.

"I must try it when I get back." Aston's eyes sparkled, muttering in a low voice.

Then, Aston looked at his attribute panel.

"Now I'm sure, I will get a reward every time I upgrade."

"According to yesterday's update, my newly acquired Master-level Alchemist ability should also appear as a skill in my Status."
