<h4>Chapter 22:? Ranking Upgrades</h4>
I felt satisfied with Neo''s rmendation and muttered, "To absorb the E-rank dungeon core, I need to be D-rank, but to be on the safe side, let''s proceed with C-rank."
After making these decisions, a serious expression washed over me.
I decided to reflect on myself since it had been three days since I gained the memories of my previous life, and many events had unfolded in that time.
I had simply gone with the flow for these three days.
I took a trip down memoryne, and all the recent events yed out before my eyes.
Thirty minutester, I let out a sigh, and a determined look filled my eyes.
I thought, "I still have three years left.
Let''s seize everything, even if it causes chaos in the world. What I need to protect is my family''s business and my rtives."
After maxing out all my stat attributes, two options appeared on my status panel for a rank upgrade.
[World System]
- yer Status:
Name: Sam Carey [Rank upgrade: 2 methods]
The first option was to use the God''s rank upgrade method, which would send me to an unknown location toplete a mission for the rank upgrade.
[Mission tier: Normal, Nightmare, Abyss]
The second option was to use a higher-grade dungeon than my current rank. Correspondingly higher-grade dungeons meant higher rewards.
[Mission tier: (1 grade higher: Normal, 2nd grade higher: Nightmare, 3rd grade higher: Abyss)]
[Author: For better understanding, read A. Chapter 2]
Many might think that using the first method is a good choice, but they don''t realize it''s a trap set by a higher realm god.
Only our novel''s protagonist will manage to pass that trap.
There are many gods who can increase the difficulty during the rank upgrade just for fun, but the corresponding rewards will also increase in the same tier.
Of course, you can only im the reward if you manage to pass, or else all of it would be meaningless.
Although there are many disadvantages, attracting the attention of the gods also has its benefits.
However, I didn''t need their benefits as it couldpromise my privacy.
Besides, the first appearance of the constetion would ur during my college years, which were still three years away.
"Anyway, let''s loot the protagonist the first chance we get before ranking up," I grinned and became excited.

Province IIIrd
A grand vi stood, approximately ten times the size of my own. Unbeknownst to anyone, a massive basement had been constructed beneath the vi.
A middle-aged man, wearing a cult cloak adorned with a devil symbol, entered the basement.
"Master, the mission failed," he cautiously reported.
"What!" the leader, who sat majestically, eximed in anger. "In Province Xth, they couldn''t evenplete a mission?"
"Master, everything went smoothly until thest moment, but someone killed all the members after the dungeon upgrade," he analyzed and added, "I believe someone leaked our secret; that''s the only reason we would be killed in an F-grade dungeon."
"Alright, give me the reports from every survivor," the leader demanded angrily and, after some time, he ordered, "Suspend all our missions; the ''Federation'' is quite active."

<i>Su Yanran''s Perspective</i>
A girl and a man were in a room.
The girly on the bed, sobbing, while the man stood outside, knocking on the door.
"Yaner, stop sobbing ande out of the room," Su Sen said softly.
She stood up, opened the door, and entered her father''sforting embrace.
Su Sen held his daughter and began recounting his own experiences, including the mistakes he had made.
"Yaner!" Su Sen said, and Su Yanran looked up at her father.
He continued, "Yaner, do you want to keep crying, or do you want to be stronger so that situations like this never happen again?"
Su Yanran finally overcame her initial emotional turmoil as a high-ranking yer and said, "Father, I want to be stronger."
"Good! That''s my daughter," Su Sen said excitedly, proud of his daughter''s determination.
"You can rest today. I''m going to find a trainer for you," Su Sen said, leaving the room where his daughter quickly fell asleep.
"Now, let''s deal with the scoundrel who dared to harm my daughter," a murderous aura suddenly enveloped him, suppressed until now due to his daughter''s condition.
As he spoke, ten A-rank and two S-rank yers suddenly appeared.
…
<i>In the Province Xth</i>
Due to the situation of the dungeon upgrade and disintegration, amotion had already spread throughout Province Xth.
Upon reaching his home, Wang Feng immediately told his parents what had happened and how they had barely managed to survive.
After listening to all of this, Wang Feng''s mother came near and suddenly hugged him while sobbing, "My Fenger, if anything were to happen to you, how would your father and I have lived without you?"
"Mom, okay, stop crying," Wang Feng said softly.
A mist of tears also welled up in his father''s eyes, but he held them back.
