Elisha lowered his body and reached towards the dead Goblins.
As an arrow came towards him, he lifted the Wooden Shield that was on the floor and used it to protect himself from the attack.
After that, he touched the two Iron Daggers and the second Wooden Shield while saying "Store.".
The Items disappeared and were now inside his Inventory.
'Wouldn't want these guys to trade their bows for the weapons...'
After retrieving the weapons, Elisha moved away from the two archers.
He ran towards the other side of the dome-like room.
"So? How can I raise my Stats?" Elisha asked while staring at the two Goblins.
But no answer came.
'Is it not working? Or is it ignoring me?'
"Status Window." He said, to know which one it was.

'So it was ignoring me... I'll have to figure out on my own how to raise my Stats. I'll mostly need my Agility Stat and my Sense Stat to clear this Floor. Maybe some Endurance too.'
The next instant, Elisha dropped on his hands and started doing pushups.
'My personal best used to be 34. Let's see now...4...12...25...34...41...49...63.'
By the time he hit 63,
[You have gained 1 Vigor & Endurance Point.]
Elisha got back up.
"So I didn't gain a Strength Point? Is it because pushups are a bit too easy?" He asked.
Once again, no response came.
'I guess I would have stopped once my muscles tired. Strength training would be lifting heavy stuff or at least having a weight on my back while doing pushups.' Elisha thought while scratching his head.
He raised his gaze towards the Goblins.
'Looks lie they don't intend on coming to fight. Good.'
Once again, Elisha got down on his hands.
'Let's shoot for 100.'
...
While Elisha was training to raise his Stats,
[You have defeated one Skeleton.]
[You have gained 5 Gold coins and 10 Experience Points.]
[You have defeated 80/80 Skeletons.]
[You have cleared the First Floor.]
"Alright, that was easy! I didn't even use my Stat Points after the first level up. Show me my Stats Window." Alex said out loud.
[ Name: Alex
Species & level : Human Lv6 (60/500exp)
Gold: 400
HP: 120/120
Endurance: 55/60
Stats: Strength: 14
Agility: 14
Sense: 14
Vigor & Endurance: 12
Unused Stat Points: 12
Skills: (None)
Titles: (None)
]
"Easy Difficulty... I hope the others chose it as well. Didn't even get hurt."
[Rewards for clearing the First Floor will now be given.]
[Do you accept?]
Alex's eyes shined brightly.
'I'm getting rewarded? Here I thought the Experience Points and Gold Coins were the reward!'
"Of course!" He answered enthusiastically.
[Rewards will be given based on achievements.]
[You have defeated 80 Skeletons.]
[You have received 10 Skeleton Bones.]
[You have earned the Title "Crusher Of Bones".]
[You have selected the Easy Difficulty Setting.]
[You have earned the Title "Wise Coward".]
[You have cleared the First Floor.]
[You have gained 500 Gold Coins.]
[The Deities that created The Tower Of Sacrifice are pleased by your survival.]
'Wise Coward?? What kind of Title is that? 500 Gold Coins, that's great. I only made 400 by defeating all those Skeletons. Although I should check out that Store...'
A delayed message arrived.
[You have been awarded 20 Magic Points.]
'Magic? Sounds good...'
[You have 30 minutes to use your Magic Points.]
"What? How do I even use them?"
[You must choose a Type of Magic that you would like to learn.]
[Each Type of Magic costs 5 Magic Points.]
[You can use 1 Magic Point to raise your proficiency in using that Magic Type.]
Immediately, Alex imagined himself shrouded in a dark aura while firing fire bombs with his right hand and freezing the ground with his left one.
"So I can learn as many Magic Types as I want??"
[As you possess 20 Magic Types, you can learn at most 4 Magic Types.]
[The proficiency in each will therefore be minimal.]
'Minimal, huh? That wouldn't be good. Not being able to use spells would defeat the purpose of this.'
Alex sat on the ground and started thinking.
On the other hand, Keith who had already defeated 30 Gray Wolves made his choice.
'That Iron Dagger doesn't suit me. Nor does fighting from a safe distance. I can only trust my body to attack and dodge, therefore...'
"I'll choose some kind of physical strengthening magic." Keith said out loud.
[You have used 5 Magic Points.]
[You have learned Physical Strengthening Magic.]
[Proficiency is too low.]
[You have developed a Mana Stat.]
'As I thought, only getting the magic type doesn't mean you'll be able to do anything, still...'
Keith looked at his hands as he opened and closed them.
'It feels like I'm stronger, somehow...'
"I'll put all my Magic Points into Physical Strengthening Magic." Keith said out loud.
[You have used 25 Magic Points.]
[Proficiency has greatly increased.]
[Channeling Mana through your body will now be a lot easier.]
[Channeling Mana through your body will now be a lot more efficient.]
[A thin layer of Mana will protect your body at all times.]
The next instant, Keith's arms were covered with a blue aura.
It was his Mana, although the amount was small.
"Umm... How high is my Mana Stat?"
[Mana Stat: 10.]
"Yeah. That makes sense. Maybe I'll throw in some Stat Points later."
In front of Keith was a countdown.
It started at 15:00 and was now at 13:35.
"So? What now?"
[Would you like to leave the First Floor?]
"Well... I would like to wait for the guys who I came with. If I can't then yes, I will leave."
The countdown disappeared.
[You shall be notified once those you came with are done.]
"Cool." Keith said as he sat on the ground and looked up.
The next second, someone appeared in front of him.
"Hey!"
