I quicky go to the spiral stair leading to the 1st floor of the dungeon completely ignoring any warning that some adventurers throw at me.
'Like, dude take care of you own business, all right?'
And after 10 minutes of descending stairs, I'm greeted by a... well 'dungeon'? I mean is more like a cave of some sorts.
I start walking deeper into the cave looking for some warp containers- I mean monsters.
>>>>>>>>5minutes later<<<<<<<
"Finally, my first ever monster" I say while inspecting the green short humanoid in front of me.
It starts running towards me but I kill it before it has time to do anything, I look at the corpse and wait for the sensation of absorbing warp.
Strangely I feel something else pass from the corpse to me aside of warp, looking at the corpse with a thoughtful expression, until the corpse starts disintegrating into blue particles that seep in the walls of the dungeon, leaving me with wide eyes.
"What?" 'It has warp but it's so minuscule it's like killing an ant in my previous world' as I grab the only left over which is a tiny purplish stone
"*sigh* this is going to take a long time, isn't it?"
>>>>>>> 2 hours later <<<<<<<
I'm going back to the surface with approximately 50 'magic stones' as they call them some are from 'goblins and others from those dog-like humanoids or 'kobolds.
I went until the 4th floor because I got hungry and decided to come back, I wonder what kind of food they have in here.
I went to the guild and sold my stones for 12.000 valis and asked for a nearby inn to pass the night.
Halfway to the inn following trail of blood 'who has that much blood?' am I said that the smell of food hits my nose, I look at the restaurant that says 'hostess of fertility'.
Entering and sitting on a table I'm greeted by a girl with cat ears and tail, 'I guess the beast-kin here are more human-like'
"Hello, welcome to the hostess of fertility, what are you going to order?" she said giving me a menu
"Hello, can I have some roasted meat with rice and a glass of water" I say looking through the different prices but it's the only thing I can afford If I don't want to sleep on the streets.
"Tha would be 1.500 valis, please wait a moment" she says and walk off to get my food while I stare at her swaying tail 'is this what those slave traders saw in beast-kin that made them appealing?
After eaten I made my way to the Inn and got a room for the night.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
In the morning I made my way to the dungeon again but this time I didn't waste my time in goblins and kobolds, I went deeper making it to the 12th floor because these monsters are getting really tough, their skin is getting hard to cut with a cheap iron sword and their blows are getting harder to evade.
'I guess this "god's blessing" is really useful, if it's getting hard for me in this floor I can only imagine in the deeper ones'
"But still, after this many kills my warp is like 4/5 to full and the other energy is too" I say while evading the club of an orc and using the chance to slash his wrist making it drop the club, he goes for a punch which dodge to the side slashing his legs a couple times and going behind him, while he kneels unable to use his legs, I jump on top of him to thrust my sword in his neck.
I land on the ground just as the corpse disappears and waving my sword to get rid of any excess blood, I hear some footsteps, I look at the side only to see a girl with blond hair and silver armor.

We were going to the surface after a successful expedition until we hear some clashing sound indicating a battle nearby, we go to check, because it wouldn't be the first time a low-level adventurer goes to lower floors without being strong enough and we end up saving them.
As we get near the sounds, I see a man in the distance facing some orcs which shouldn't be much of a problem if he wasn't level 1!
'I need to hurry he going to get killed' I think as I speed up leaving the group behind.
Just as I think that I see the man get into a stance I've seen before in many newbie adventurers that think they can use a sword just by swing it around.
But his stance felt different is if he had many years of experience but I can feel he doesn't have that much strength and it's just a level 1.
Then he proceeds to kill the orcs gracefully with only 2 or 3 moves of the sword.
That leaves me wide-eyed how can such a weak person defeat monster of much higher level than his own? the answer is technique but that technique is similar to my "sword saint" but at the same time it's not.
'If I can get him to teach me and integrate his swordsmanship with mine, I'll be one step closer to my goal'
Just as he is about to sheathe his sword, I step closer and say...
