"...!"

Aster stiffened after hearing this. After all, despite his increase in level, he knew that he had no chance of winning against Vanessa in terms of strength. If she wished, he would have no choice but to stay locked in her room until god knows when.

"Pfft!"

But the serious atmosphere quickly collapsed as soon as she let out her stifled laughter.

"I was just messing with you. Being a vampire was a secret, but it\'s not worth that much. Even Magnus knows it."

"So you really were connected to the mayor?" Aster sighed, feeling a hint of relief.

"Yes. By lineage, he\'ll be counted as my older second cousin," she added with a finger to her chin. "After all, he\'s twice my age."

"Twice...?"

Looking at Vanessa, she could pass as someone in their early twenties. This means Magnus would be in his forties, quite far from how young he appeared.

"Although I\'m flattered about what you\'re thinking, that old man is already in his sixties." But Vanessa corrected his misunderstanding even before he could voice them out.

"Really?!" Aster gasped in shock. "I guess vampires look younger in general then..."

Although hearing about Magnus\' age made him curious about Priscilla\'s age too, he decided to hold back the thought. After all, the gaze from Vanessa was getting prickly, making him feel uncomfortable.

Vanessa stood up and walked to the door, opening it halfway. "Anyway, we\'re done for today. Remember, nothing happened, alright~?"

Aster could tell what she was thinking, and he too preferred if Magnus remained in the dark about what happened between him and Vanessa. If the news spread, then he could already see the future of sleeping with more women at a faster pace.

"Alright. Nothing happened." Aster smiled, leaving through the door.

Since he asked the chauffeur to leave before, he had to walk back to his hotel room. But recalling that there\'s Cassy and Liz there, he changed plans, heading for the auction house instead.

It was a place where precious items from the dungeon were sold, and they offered a VIP room for those of high standing. Aster, using Magnus\' name, managed to borrow a VIP room for himself, and asked that nobody enter the room after him.

As the auction house protects the identity of its customers, the room should be safe from scrying eyes and have some countermeasures against eavesdropping and peeking. At least, he could ensure it\'s safer than going into a random hotel and checking in.

"Lycan\'s Fang Daggers for 5 billion Tels! Sold to customer number 507!"

"Wow, big spenders," he commented casually, hearing the auction happening below.

Ignoring all that, he sat down and pulled his Holo Tab, before inserting the storage device that looked like a card. The data inside quickly got read, and a large amount of files spread before his eyes.

"This... is too many."

There were thousands of them, at least!

One file quickly caught his attention. It was named quite randomly, probably to ensure it would stay at the top when everything was arranged by name.

"[!~~~to_our_son.txt]?"

It was the only one that was a plain text file, while the rest were in a format that had a certain level of compression and protection... though they couldn\'t be read by the tablet\'s document reader for its "ancient" document type.

As he opened the file, wondering what it was they wanted to say, he quickly frowned.

From the "voice" of the text, he could tell it was written by his mother. Reading it was bothersome, as it was filled with useless chatting, asking how he was now, and so on.

"What\'s the use of asking if you\'re not even here to listen to my response..." Aster sighed, pinching his nose while trying to hold his emotions in check.

As he continued reading, however, quite a few things that puzzled him were answered. Like how the cryogenic machine had fuel enough to last for thousands of years. Or how he got the Frostfire Legacy\'s seal carved on his right hand.

From the simplicity of the file, only a small part of it was corrupted; as such, all the information that his mother wanted to relay was passed on without much trouble. It was a little too much to digest at once, however.

Just when he thought he already got most of the information he needed, he saw the last few lines of the file and gasped. His eyes opened wide as his body shook, thinking of the impossibility he was seeing.

[P.S. Become stronger and reach the end of the dungeon, no matter how long it takes. We\'re right here, and will always be waiting and cheering for you, our dear son.]

"No way...!"

His heart pounded at this revelation. "Mother... Father... Are they still alive?!"

The end of the dungeon. It was something that nobody had seen yet. After all, even the leading team, Ragnaros\' Dragon\'s Roar, was stuck on clearing the 1166th floor. In terms of the dungeons around the world, it was still "shallow," but was still recorded as the current "deepest" floor that\'s being explored worldwide.

Aster gripped his fist tight. It was faint, but he got a clue—a trace of his parents\' whereabouts. However, it would be hard to reach it, given his current level of ability.

"I need to get stronger!"

Right as he made up his mind to work even harder clearing the dungeon, the next auction item suddenly caught his attention.

"And for the next item! An elusive item that can boost one\'s life force and increase your lifespan by one year! The Dewdrops of Yggdrasil! The starting bid is 1 billion Tels with increments of 100 million!" Enjoy more content from mvl

"Lifespan...?!"

Aster realized that at his current pace, it would be impossible to reach the 1,000th floor before his life ended. As such, hearing about an item that can boost his lifespan, he started to gain some hope.

\'But it\'s too expensive!\'

Right now, he only has 500 million Tels in his account. Even if he used up all his money, he can\'t even buy one drop of the Dewdrops of Yggdrasil!

"I should ask Magnus later. Maybe he can help me with it."

Items that increase one\'s lifespan were rare, after all. The price of a single drop exploded, reaching 10 billion within minutes. Aster knew that he had no chance of winning, and simply proceeded to his next task.

He stared at his Frostfire Legacy and smiled.

"It\'s been a while. Time to teach those girls who\'s boss!"
