I can’t keep doing the same old training exercise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’I need a party if I want to tackle the 6th floor boss, and I think it really is the time to keep climbing the tower.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’I’ll go sell all the useless stuff that I have in the inventory, then go to the blacksmith to repair my weapons and perhaps purchase better armor and some healing potions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’When I am done with all that, I need to find people that I can trust.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Raon sighed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The hardest part for him wasn’t fighting the Floor Bosses.
