Fred took his first step unto the dungeon.
When his feet touched the ground, he felt a change in the atmosphere. An unknown chill is permeating into the dungeon causing the temperature to drop.
This cause the strengthened body of to shiver. He felt the chill not on his skin, but from his soul which in turn make it feel fear.
Fred frown when he felt this, he only now realize that his body is the only thing that was strengthened and he should do that to his soul as well.
With that, Fred tried to wish for his soul to be strengthen.
Yes, he "tried".
He waited for a minute and there was no reaction, he is still feeling the slight chill.
A thought surface in his mind that makes his frown to go even deeper.
'Why can't I create a skill... Is my golden finger malfunctioning or something or is it that silver is not enough for creating a skill related to soul?'
With such thought, he continues to walk down the stairs he walk for a while before finally arrive at the bottom.
A straight path all made out of yellow bricks is what appeared at the bottom of the stairs.
There is no torch or any other source of light like electric bulb etc. but the place is still not devoid of lighting. It is instead the opposite as the place is quite bright.
This is just like the previous dungeon where there's also no lighting but was still bright nonetheless.
When Fred saw the path, he throws the thought about why he can't make a skill related to the soul to the back of his head, anyways, even if he thought of it for a whole day here he might not find an answer.
It's better to focus on what is in front of him and become cautious of all things.
With thoughts like that inside his mind, Fred continues his journey to the insides of the dungeon.
But before he walk forward, he hung the camera on his neck like a necklace so that he can use both his hands if ever there is a danger that come out.
Then he proceeded forward with momentum on his steps.
He walk for 30 minutes non-stop but he still doesn't feel tired at all.
Throughout that walk, he noticed that there was no monster that appeared, not even a shadow of a mouse or a cockroach have shown itself to him.
This made Fred to relax his vigilance a bit.
In his mind he reasoned that maintaining that will spend his energy more and make him tired easily.
'I've been walking for 30 minutes and I still haven't seen the end of this dungeon, I should conserve my energy in case that I will have to continue walking for more time.'
The relaxed Fred walk for a few more minutes and he finally saw a change to the scenery.
But that change is just a fork on the path.
There are two paths in front of him, the road is like a "T" shape and in front of him is a path towards the left and the right.
"Hmmm... where should I head now?" he spoke aloud as he think.
"Eh, I'll just go to the right path for now, maybe I can go back later and head to the left path after."
Fred decisively chose to walk on the right path without much thought.
It did not take long for him to arrive at the end of the path and on it, he saw a new looking wooden door.
*Click*
When he turn the doorknob, it was actually locked so he can't open it. Without using his brain which at this point is I'm not sure if he have one, he punch the door.
*Bang!*
The door looks sturdy but it seems like it's just made out of normal wood and not some wood with magic power cause when Fred punched on it, it directly created a hole in it.
When Fred saw that his punch punctured the door he felt embarrassed of his hastiness.
*Sigh*
Luckily, there is no one there aside from him so he breathe a sigh in relief and fix his expression as if nothing wrong happened.
He pulled out his arm from the hole, with the hole as a handle, Fred then pulled the door causing it to be fully destroyed.
Fred throws the door at the side carelessly.
Now the surrounding is littered with pieces of wood.
At that moment, as if something was triggered, Fred felt the movement below him and by instinct, he jumped back a few meters away.
Then he saw the place he was standing on earlier suddenly vanish and was replaced by a hole full of metal spears pointed upwards while at the bottom there is a hot, bright red lava.
When Fred saw that, beads of sweat started running down his forehead and back. He genuinely feel scared his heart is beating so fast and powerfully as if it's trying to leave his body.
'I was almost killed there! Even if my body is already strengthened, I can feel that I will still melt in the face of the lava!' an indescribable expression of a look that is like crying of pooping surfaced his face.
It took him a few minutes before he calmed down himself and started thinking of what happened.
'Why did that trap suddenly activated? Is it because I recklessly destroyed the door?' with this question, he started looking if there is any clue around.
And he didi find a clue, but this only cause him to feel bitter and curse at himself!
It is because he saw a corner of the door that he carelessly throw away earlier was pushing on a brick which caused it to depressed. With that, it is easy to conclude that that is the cause of this happening.
'Sh*t! I'm so careless! Because of my stupidity I almost killed myself! If not because of the instinct from the fighting skill screaming that I should jump away I will be a roasted man in the lava pit now!'
This situation brought back the vigilance that he let down earlier, choosing to be always be wary of his surroundings cause there might be other traps around him.
With that though, Fred continues his walk detouring at the side of the hole and entered the room that the door was hiding earlier.
And what he saw are things that made his eyes shine brightly!
