I pushed the door slightly and a saw a pitch black outdoor . The key already disappeared after opening the door for me , in. the thin air leaving a golden hue behind.
I crossed my gate and entered the dungeon very carefully not to make any noise holding my metal knives ready in reversed grip ,for a fight.
[Ding!]
[You have entered a dungeons!]
"Darbi can you do me a favour. Please turn off all notification until I am in the dungeon. Only when I ask for something or it is very important , don't show any messages ."
[Done! All notifications are blocked until you are in dungeon]
A very strange feeling was ripping my inside and a slight smell of a particular thing was making me shiver a little.
"Blood".
In my both lives , I never did some things like this. I trained my body to protect myself in case like this but my mind was still somewhat not ready yet.
I shook my head and slapped my cheek sharply to throw away all the unnecessary thoughts.
"Show me my stats".
{ Status}
[Name: Izumi Miyamura]
[Age: 17 years old]
[HP : 150+ 50 ]
[MP : ∞ ]
[Strength : 210 ]
[Stamina: 150 ]
[Speed : 120 ]
[ Intelligence : 120 ]
[Skills: None]
[Magic Element: None]
[Equipped: Bulking Bull ,Metal Knives]
[Remaining Attributes : 160 ]
My eyes went wide on my MP count. I halted my slow moving steps and took cover behind a big rock . I was sure I was in a big cave which had no source of light from an side and I had to enhance my vision to take a single step in there.
"Oi, what's this absurd amount of Magic point"
[Host let me tell you the details since you asked it.]
I waited for the next notification in excitement as who doesn't want to get unlimited mana to shoot fireballs continuously .
[Mana is something you can absorb from your surrounding limitlessly but only where mana exist and unfortunately you original world contain very little amount of mana if compared to here.]
"Tell me ,if I buy a magic element from the shop then can I use it continuously without a hitch?".
[No you can't]
"Huh? Why?"
I knew that not all box contain sweets, but still I was disappointed a little.
[It's works like this .Imagine you have a plenty of fuel around you but you don't have proper container to store and channelize it . And since you can't absorb much mana flowing around you ,it's not possible for you to use magic more than thrice according to your current stats.]
"So how could I increase my capacity?" I asked in little bit of hope and anticipation.
[Intelligence is the key to success.]
"Please tell me in details when we go back that how to increase my intelligence and one more thing what is the average strength of normal human in my world?"
[The strongest man in your world is only 40 points above you , so probably you can beat the shit out of anyone in your world.]
"No thanks but I don't like violence much".
[Host did you forgot you are in a dungeon where people not generally come to play origami or something.]
" I-I know ".
I straighten my back and again started walking to more deep inside the cave.
The smell of blood kept on rising with each steady step.
"Hehe ..geehee...rororr"
I started hearing this kind of weird laughs and fluid sounds after walking about 5 minutes .
I saw a source of light about 50 m ahead so I hid behind a rock again to look over the scene.
I adjusted my optical nerve and saw something horrible more than I had imagined.
About a dozen of green dwarf monster were all around the cave but the most hideous thing was the body of half eaten humans around them and pool of blood on which the were sliding there butts happily.
The dead bodies were in so horrible state that I almost puked at my spot.
If I had enhanced my nose at that time than i was completely sure that my already eaten ranen would have came out in front of eyes again.
[Dungeon Quest]
[Slay the goblins]
[Goblin count : 0/ 13]
[Time remaining: 48 hours]
[Reward : Hidden]
[Penalty : Hidden]
I saw my quest and didn't thought about the reward for now as the matter in hand was more important.
I was contemplating how to kill all those disgusting creature who have a sharp claw and bone piercing teeth , seperately. Kill them at once was something I wasn't dreaming of so moving like an assassin was my only option.
[Host is recommended to check availabile skills. ]
The notification reminded me that I haven't checked the skills which I got on levelling up .
" Thanks Darbi " I said with a smile on my face as in time of need Darbi also gets serious and helps me .
I opened the menu and selected the skill tab where two symbol parallel to each other were shining brightly .
[Snake's bite]
[There is 5% of chance to get a critical hit on the opponent if the user get the first strike in a fight.]
(Note: The chances of getting critical hit would increase with the frequent usage of the skill.)
[Shadow stealth]
[ Provide stealth ability to the user for 10 second]
(Note: Monster with high perception can detect user's magic circulation. This skill takes 10 stamina points on every use )
[Note: Host can only learn one skill and the other one will be locked and can't be accessed until a certain quest arrives ]
I smirked and without a second thought I chose the obvious.
" Learn stealth".
A golden hue covered my body and since there was a huge rock as my cover those monsters didn't noticed my presence at all.
[Ding!]
[Host acquired a skill]
[Shadow stealth]
[Level : 1]
[Skill timeout : 30. seconds]
[Consumption: 10 stamina per activation]
[Good luck host]
"Thanks Darbi"
I tighten my grip on my knives and activated my stealth.
[Skill activated]
[Stealth ]
[Time remaining : 9 s]
I didn't wasted time and by pouring my full strength in my calves I dashed toward the nearest goblin who was playing with a human hand. Without hesitation I slid my sharp blade through the corner of the first goblin .
"Aarrrrhhhhhhhhh".
The goblin shouted in pain and collapsed while choking its own neck . Purple blood was showering from the spot where I cut like butter a scond before.
I was also shocked to realise how much sharp my blade and skills were . I already practice about hundreds of time today in the dojo with my full speed so it was just like training session and I got the results what I expected.
All the other 12 goblins suddenly stopped their fun and the things they were doing and cautiously started observing their surroundings for the invaders.
They lifted their wooden clubs which had blood painted on them , in their hands.
The cave went silent all of a sudden , only the first annihilated Goblin was shouting his final cry before the shower of blood and screams came to an hault and my first kill in both of my lives was registered.
[Remaining : 12/ 13]
I clenched my fist in excitement behind a rock before activating my stealth again.
'Now let's start the thrill'.
