Chapter 5 - Chapter 5: Yes! A Weapon, Finally

After walking down the stairs a good ways, I see a light. I walk slower, cautious of this, because, seriously, light at the end of the tunnel screams don't go into the light. Well, I go into the light.

When I pass through the entry I gasp, amazed by what I see. A huge cavern, filled with a forest. I slowly look around, trying to discern if it's dangerous. I look up, after seeing nothing, and see where the light is coming from. "Well, you don't see that every day," I say to myself. There is a huge crystal hanging from the ceiling.

*BOOM.

The cavern shakes violently all of a sudden. I look around, trying to find the source of this noise and chaos. My jaw drops... Standing in front of me, this huge monster that looks like a rock, is staring at me, with hate filled eyes.

Where in the hell did this thing come from. It was not there a minute ago... Unless it came out of the ground. I look at it's feet, and sure enough, a big hole is behind it. Well, shoot, anything goes in a fantasy world, right?

All of a sudden it launches itself at me. "The hell," I curse. It's over 10 meters tall, and yet it can move that fast? I get hit all of a sudden, not seeing where the attack even came from. I fly back a good ways before I get stopped all of a sudden.

*BANG.

"Ouch," I groan, panting into the ground. I bounced off of a seriously hard wall. I look up, and I see a rock flying at me. I barely dodge to the side in time, which probably saved my life.

*BANG...

I look back, and dang. There is a huge hole in the wall. I glance back at the monster, narrowing my eyes. I fully inhale all of a sudden, releasing it all into a huge energy breath.

*BANG...

When it hit, dust rose up everywhere, making it to where I couldn't see. After a minute I finally see debris from that rock giant all over the ground. "Huh, hits hard, but takes a beating easily enough." I walk towards it, thinking,"Loot." Heh, lets see what mister rocky had on him. I pull my inventory up and my eyes widen.

[Rock Sword: Blue] "Yes!" I shout. A weapon. Finally I can start learning a proficiency. I pause and think,"Blue". I investigate this, since I've no idea what that means. "Ah, so that means rarity," I say after researching it a bit further. Multiple different rarities ranging from white(Normal), green(Uncommon), blue(Rare), purple(Epic), orange(Legendary), and gold(Mythical).

Well, I'm just happy to have a sword at all. I start walking forward, but then I feel with my mind that I've leveled up. [Congratulations, you have reached level 8] Wait, what? I look closer. "What the, how is this possible?" I research a little and find the answer. It was a boss... Huh, works for me. I look around and decide to head further into the dungeon. "Lets see what other interesting things I fine, hm," I chuckle heartily to myself.
