I woke up feeling the tender warmth of the sunlight on my face once more. It was the third day after receiving the memories of my previous life.
I found out another advantage of the Gamers body skill, after a good night of sleep, the pain from my yesterday's spar against Noin had almost disappeared and my health (hp) was full.
Maybe she had intended for me to rest today and tomorrow and for her train me on Saturday, so that I would go to the dungeon after some training from her, but too bad, I had a system after all, a cheat device that would make one turn around any situation, if utilized properly.
...
After getting ready and having my breakfast, I left my home heading towards the dungeon. I had put all the potions I had purchased in my inventory and also the spare swords from that I had bought at a weapon shop during my stroll yesterday.
There was also food I had specially prepared and stored it in my inventory, I had decided that I would try to reach at least the 7th or 8th floor and reach Level 10 on my system.
...
As soon as I reached the dungeon plaza, I could see groups of adventures heading down the dungeon, it seems another fine day for adventuring in the dungeon.
Just descending down the stairs of the dungeon at the entrance was enough to introduce a change in the atmosphere, the bright, warm sunlight gave way to a cold, prickly feeling.
The first floor of the dungeon was still the same, a few goblins being spawned here and there, but unlike the last time where I was mapping and only fought when necessary or unavoidable, this time I would try to fight as many monsters so I that could to gain more combat experience.
Another thing motivating me fight these monsters was my daily quest,
[Quest, Daily Quest : Defeat 500 monsters (20/500) ]
My daily quest, I had to defeat 500 monsters. Hence time to grind and fill up the numbers.
...
Three hours later, Dungeon 3rd Floor.
I was able to defeat around 100 goblins and kobolds by the time I was down on the third floor.
I was bored of fighting those goblins in the first floor and sped up a lot on the second floor, and now even the goblins and kobolds which were harder for me to defeat during my first dive were now falling as easily as breaking twigs, the increased proficiency in my spatial sense skill certainly helped a lot.
But here in the third floor, I tried using my float magic and acceleration skill to try and see if I could vertically attack the Dungeon Lizards on the ceiling and take them down, that is, if Aerial combat was possible for me.
On my first try, I started floating above the ground, leaned back a bit and applied acceleration and tried to reach an unaware Dungeon Lizard from its behind in a slightly slanted path through the air.
It was almost like a jump but here it was the burst of speed due to the acceleration skill.
I was able to successfully kill it, but not having any support or foothold in the air, I almost fell down, as the ceiling was above the one meter height to use my magic and barely steadied myself by stabbing my swords on the dungeon walls in Kratos style.
But a few tries later after trying to use my magic to land at the last second before reaching the ground, I was able to successfully stop my fall and hover in the air.
By the end of it, my float magic and acceleration skill proficiency increased by around a good 15%.
The only downside was me having to face a monster party in the next chamber. I suspect that the dungeon got angry because of me playing around and not taking it seriously.
There were almost 30 goblins and 20 kobolds angrily waving their weapons at me and a few Dungeon Lizards on the ceiling, when I entered through the next chamber's door.
This allowed me try another application of my magic and skill which I wanted to try out. Taking another sword from my inventory, I held two swords in each of my hands, started to float and then allowed a little more mana to the acceleration skill. Due to both my skills, I was almost like a white line moving across the entire chamber mowing down monsters.
As I sped up, I was only able to sense my enemies vaguely even with the help of my spatial sense.
But that was enough to tear through them like moving a knife through butter, just moving through them in a single straight line with the swords crossed in front of me, I was easily able to cut down around 8 goblins and 4-5 kobolds and they were not even able to react, maybe all they saw in their last moments was just a straight white light heading towards them? No techniques, just simple and pure speed.
But I once more realized that I was already overpowered compared to these low level monsters, now I was just mowing them down for the mission, as they were not even giving me any exp points.
I, for a moment felt sad for these monsters.
...
After decimating the entire monster party and picking up all the magic stones, and storing them in my inventory, I stopped playing around and became focused, reaching the stairs for the fifth floor in another one hour.
My daily quest was more than half completed, I had taken down around three-hundred monsters.
Another thing I noticed during this trip to the dungeon was, there were some changes to the dungeon, like a chamber on the third floor from my first trip was closed this time, a entire passageway on the fourth floor had simply vanished, with now a wall at the entrance of where the passage was and a few more hallways and chambers closed.
Going down the stairs to the fifth floor of dungeon, the walls on the fifth floor turned light green in color. The light also become dim, the only source of light being the green moss on each side of the ceiling, giving a dim light similar to the walls.
Going through the hallway on the left and entering the corridor, I was greeted by a tongue to my face, ahem, an attack from a frog shooter, a frog monster with a single huge eye on its forehead, found starting this floor. After dodging the attack, I struck it in the lone eye on its forehead, turning it into ash and making it drop a magic stone.
As I bent to pick up the magic stone it dropped, my spatial sense detected a presence behind me approaching towards me.
Turing around and instinctively bringing my sword in front of me, what greeted me was a dark humanoid monster that has long arms with three claws that are sharp like knives, in other words another monster, a war shadow or the 'newbie killer' of the fifth floor, it's specialty was sneak attacks, during when an adventurer was relaxed, similar to this one attacking me.
The war shadow was far stronger than the goblins and kobolds on the fourth floor, but still not enough to over power me.
Looking at me unscathed, it let out a shriek? and rushed at me once more.
Deflecting it's attack with my sword, and before it could recover it's stability, I stabbed my sword directly through it's forehead, killing it.
After picking up the earlier magic stone and the one dropped by the war shadow, I opened my system screen to check my status and the number of minsters defeated for my daily quest.
