'The color of the circuit patterns changes on each floor along with the color of the walls.'
'On floor 1 it was green and black, floor 2 was yellow and black, floor 3 was blue and dark grey, and now floor 4 is red and light grey.'
'If there is one more floor tham would it be something like purple and white or something?'
'It would be an interesting coincidence considering the color of my eyes and hair.'
'Along with the color of the walls and circuits changing the robot monster species seem to change as well.'
'Floor 1 was slime, 2 was kobold, 3 was goblin and 4 is orc. So are the monsters on floor 5 something like ogres?'
While Mizuki was thinking about such things she was forced to return her focus to the light grey colored and red glowing orc robots.
'What a strange place this is.'
Mizuki dodged a large hammer that was going for her head by crouching, kicked off the floor into a backflip and decapitated the orc that was situated behind her.
After her MP was recovered she then threw a few [Dome of Hell] spells at the rest of the orcs, killing them within seconds.
On the forth floor Mizuki has gained another 2 levels by now, boosting her to Lv 25.
"Is it supposed to be getting easier?" muttered Mizuki, not knowing that most people would slap her if they heard this.
Although she knew that she was smarter than average, she did not realize her monstrous potential, adaptability, and learning speed.
If given a new language to learn she could fully learn it in less than half a week if she had the motivation.
Concerning physical activities she was not much worse. After all she was the person to learn piano, violin and guitar perfectly after less than 1 year, only practicing in her free time.
It is not very surprising that she has picked up fighting this fast. Although she mostly relies on instinct and what she has learned from her previous fights she is still lacking a proper fighting style and her moves are easy to see through for any experianced fighter.
After all the orcs on the floor were either dismembered or disintegrated, Mizuki found the stairs to the next floor and started traveling down.
"How big is this place anyway. Don't tell me that there is something like 100 floors here."
As she was hoping for that not to be the case she noticed the glow of the circuits and color of the wall slowly shift.
"Wait.. It really is purple and white? That was just a random thought."
'If the monsters on this floor are ogres then I am going to classify myself as a psychic from now on.'
...
As Mizuki was making her way around the fifth floor looking for monsters, a young handsome man was paying his respects outside of the dungeon.
"Okay Aenon, let's go."
"Yes young master. Remember stay near the knights on our way back to the carriage."
"Yes yes."
As the group was walking back towards the road, two of the guards were whispering about the recent incident.
"His highness seems really down after the girls death."
"It will be fine. It does not seem to be something like love at first sight or anything. At most the girl peaked his highnesses fancy."
"Well she certainly peaked mine as well. An amazing beauty, I would not mind making her my wife."
"Well I can't argue about that."
As they were whispering obscenities a shadow flickered behind them.
"Do not speak ill of the dead."
"Ah! Your highness!"
Damian removed the knife he held to the knights throats and walked away while saying.
"Do not speak such profanities during your job. This is your first and last warning."
After Damian joined back with the front of the group the two knights could finally let out their breath.
"I don't get why he even needs guards." said one of them
"Shut up if you don't want to lose your life. We're lucky to still be alive. His highness normally does not give a second chance." said the second knight in a whisper.
...
"Why are there no monsters at all?"
Mizuki was still walking around the fifth floor of the dungeon. She has yet to find a single sign of activity here.
"I guess I'm not a psychic."
She stopped in her tracks and took a quick glance at the walls and ceiling before continuing on.
"This place reminds me of a hospital or lab with its white walls."
After walking for a few more minutes she saw a large door at the end of the hall.
"Finally found something. Maybe a boss room or something?"
As she approached the door she started to feel sluggish, then tired, then on the verge of passing out.
"What the hell?"
Mizuki was right infront of the door. She reached her hand out to touch it and just as she did all her fatigue faded.
"Weird."
She took another look at the door and noticed a name at the top of it.
"Shiro Murasaki. Is that supposed to be a name?"
Mizuki ignored it and pushed the door open.
"Maybe it's the name of the one whos tomb this is supposed to be."
As the door fully opened Mizuki could finally see inside.
It was an empty room with a table and two chairs.
On one of the chairs there was a woman with a labcoat, white hair, purple tinted glasses a red sweater and black stockings. She had silver pupils and two white horns on her head along with pale skin.
'Gotta say she looks pretty boppin. Reminds me of the scientist lady from that 'Purgatory Taker' game or whatever its name was'
"Hello there."
A voice came from the woman.
"My name is Shiro Murasaki, the last technomancer and this is my tomb."
"Uh.. Hello. Name's Mizuki, slime."
"I made my tomb into a dungeon to keep my knowledge around for my future successor and as you have passed the compatibility test outside this room that successor is you. Ofcourse if you do not wish it I will not force the role on you."
'Hmm~ I might as well accept. She does not seem that dangerous, for the most part she seems close to death. I can not hear nor see any breathing or heart beat.'
"I accept."
"Good." Shiro smiled.
The moment she said that a notification appeared on Myzukis system interface.
[Ancient Arch Demon -Shiro Murasaki- is giving you the chance to gain the special ability [Technomancy]
Do you accept?]
'Yes.'
[Confirmation received.]
[Conditions too high to learn [Technomancy]]
[Readjusting parameters]
[Race will undergo a change during next class up]
[Class will undergo a severe change during next class up]
[Deletion of [Pyrokinesis] and [Psychokinesis] will commence after next class up]
[Special ability [Technomancy] will be received after next class up]
"Wait I'll lose [Pyrokinesis] and [Psychokinesis]!?" yelled Mizuki in a panic.
"If you have any special abilities they will be consumed to empower [Technomancy]" stated Shiro.
'I could have sworn that it said 'Deletion' though.' thought Mizuki.
"Is [Technomancy] really that good?"
"Yes, and now that I have passed on my legacy I have no more to do in this world. Do me a favor and don't die without passing on the skill, it really is special."
"May I use this dungeon as I like?" asked Mizuki.
"Go on ahead. I have no more use for it. It has taken most of my power to keep myself alive here to find a worthy successor."
"Oh and as a warning. Get strong as fast as possible. The gods will soon return to finish the war." Shiro said with a smile before the light started to slowly fade from her eyes.
"Good luck young lass." were the final words that Shiro left.
Shiro passed on with a light smile on her face.
"Well that was ominous as sh*t."
