'10% of my INT?' Ning quickly opened his profile page and checked. 'That's nearly 10 damage per second. I will deal 300 damage over the duration… that's not bad actually,' Ning thought.     

The shoes also gave him quite a significant improvement in AGI and movement speed.     

Ning sighed when he saw his clear time at over 30 minutes. Even when he knew it was going to take a long time, it was still a lot more than what he was expecting.     

Ning walked through the portal that appeared and fell into thought when he came out of the dungeon.     

'If I really want to solo clear it very quickly, then I need to skip all the beasts and find the boss directly. I should be fine when I find the boss, right?' he thought.     

Thinking so, Ning waited a while to regenerate his HP and Mana and went back in again.     

Since he wanted a record, Ning dashed into the maze as quickly as he could. He found himself running faster thanks to the increased movement speed he had found himself.     

As he ran, Ning pulled out a card using his skill. The card was a card that dealt some damage, but he wasn't looking to attack anything at the moment.     

So, he sacrificed it, hoping for something good.     

[Fate's Joker (Common) has been activated.]     

[You have gained a Buff.]     

[You have gained 30% Status Resistance for the next 120 seconds.]     

'Status resistance… that's for debuff duration right?' Ning thought. It was certainly not useful for him, but he still was happy that it wasn't a buff.     

His luck had panned out for this coin flip.     

Ning heard a Vileshroom pop out in font of him, but he simply jumped over it and ignored it. The Vileshroom was slow, so it could not keep up with Ning's speed.     

Ning came across many Vileshrooms, but he simply ignored it and continued running.     

He ran through the maze for the next 3 minutes before finally finding the boss's room.     

'So fast,' he thought to himself. He entered the boss's room and pulled out a card and started fighting.         

The card dealt some damage to the boss and stunned it for 5 whole seconds, which turned out to be about 3.75 seconds, because the boss had a 25% Status Resistance.     

Since no one from the previous group had any crowd control skill, Ning had no way of knowing this.     

Ning poisoned the boss using the Poison spore and used Wind Arrow before fighting it.     

The boss took half damage from each of course, making the damage be barely anything. Still, barely anything was better than nothing, so Ning fought.     

He wanted to finish this quickly. Having arrived here at 3 minutes, Ning had about 12 minutes to finish the boss. While that seemed like a lot, he had to keep running away so as to not get trapped and take quite a bit of damage.     

Still, Ning had beaten the boss before in 12 minutes. So, he could certainly do it now.     

In the next 2 minutes, Ning dealt over 600 damage to the boss. If this went on, he would deal somewhere around 2000 damage in the next 7 minutes.     

That would be more than enough to kill the boss, and it would be enough to beat the clear time by nearly 3 minutes.     

Ning was looking forward to it. He happily fought the boss when suddenly he heard some sounds from behind him.     

The many Vileshrooms that he had run away from were entering the boss room one by one.     

Ning's eyes went wide in shock as over 20 Vileshroom entered the boss room, and they all started attacking him.     

'No…' he thought. He brought out a card and tried to fight, but there was nothing he could do that would help him dodge the attacks of so many monsters at once.     

Ning tried to run away, but he couldn't walk out of the boss door. He tried to leave the dungeon, but that was impossible too.     

In the end, Ning was ganged upon by the many monsters and he tragically died.     

[You have died.]     

[You lost 200 Exp]     

[Time to respawn 09:59]     

Ning sat in the darkness with a weird look on his face. 'Dammit! I overreached this time around,' he thought. 'How was I supposed to know those monsters could enter?'     

Fortunately, he lost no items and only exp. 'Will by Fate stacks reset?' he wondered. If it did, he would have to kill a lot more again.     

While he was dead, Ning thought about what he could do or not do.     

He wanted the Solo clear record, but that was just a want, not a need. Should he give up on that and go about the game normally?     

'Hmm, I really want my name there though,' Ning thought. 'How do I get it though?'     

There was really just one way from what he could tell. Ning needed some sort of AOE spell to kill the monsters once they were in the room.     

Unfortunately, he had no way of acquiring such a spell at the moment. He had checked the market and the spells cost a lot of money.     

So, his only way was to rely on his luck, which was quite unreliable for the most part.         

Ning sighed in the end. "How about this then? I will try to do it 3 more times. And if I fail, I will move on," he thought. He gave himself a condition that he wouldn't run out of.     

3 more dungeon runs and he would leave, whether he got his record or not.     

"3 chances… I hope my luck helps me here," Ning thought and waited.     

When the timer reached zero, he respawned in a building inside the city, and so he restarted the game.
