I entered the next floor, 20th floor.
Seeing this floor which was wider than the previous floors, But that didn't stopped me from moving ahead.
After walking for 3 to 4 minutes I finally encountered a Ape monster, but this was definitely more bigger than the other Apes I have encountered, And this monster also had some red fur in their body. I thought It was a different kind of Ape so I checked his status.
(Race - Fire Ape
Rank - [20] )
"Hmmmmm, Fire Ape haa... So does it means he can use fire magic?," Soon enough I got my rely, But not the way I expected, The Ape opened his mouth, I could see mana was gathering in his mouth than he released a fire ball toward me.
It was my first time someone attacked at me with a magic, I didn't wanted to take the risk. So I choose the safest way by dodging it. Since it was not that fast enough I dodged it easily and seeing the place where it got hit, that Was burned a little, I thought,'Well his magic is not powerfull as mine,' I made this judgment because my fireball could have definitely done more damage than this.
I thought 'Now it the time to test if my magic also gets stronger when I used it through weopon,' looking toward the Ape I said ,"Now it my time to attack," Saying this I slashed my katana.
"Wind Slash"
Ape felt danger from the attack that was coming at him with great speed, So he tried to dodge but still he lost his one arm and he roared in pain,
"ROOAAAR,"
Seeing his arms getting cut off with just single Wind slash I thought to myself, 'Definitely attack power of my magic also gets strong When I used it with my this katana' because when I was at rank 19 I tried to cut one rank 18 Ape's monster head off but it didn't went through but left deep cut only on his neck.
That proved me one thing at that time even if I was one rank above a monster my wind slash still failed to cut through them entirely. And now when I used it with a weapon I was able to cut his hand off, With just one Wind slash move. Even if one can't compare rank 20 power with rank 21. But here even my opponent was also getting more powerfull, So it was fair to come at this conclusion.
I muttered, "Woww, You are the first one to dodge my wind slash attack and didn't die," Saying this I smiled and thought, 'I think now it's time to check the sharpness of my katana physically too,'
I used my wind mana nature on my feet and ran at my full speed toward the Ape, he sensing me getting closer used his another arm to punch me, But I easily dodged him and slashed my katana on his head, This time he didn't got the chance to dodge My attack and he died getting his head cut off. I smiled in satisfaction that the sharpness of the katana was also perfect.
"Haaa... What is this," I bent and took the red crystal that was lying down where the dead body of a ape disappeared. "This must be mana core that monsters dropes." Saying this I kept it in my ring and started moving forward. This floor was quiet big and long too than the previous floors.
It took me atleast two days to clear the dungeon from this I got to know why Sara needed 2or above months to clear the dungeon.
At the end of the floor I slept soundly after getting no sleep for one whole day, But since I didn't knew when a monster could attack me I couldn't just sleep without clearing the entire floor. After sleeping for 10 hours I finally woke up.
Soon I opened my status to check how much stat point I have gathered from this floor, but I knew one thing I must have gathered more, Since the monster where also a lot.

"Really I got so much state point by just clearing one floor, With this I could probably go to another rank if I could. Hmmmm, but I think I should not keep on jumping my rank like this for now and focus on having my each power closer to each other rather than rush things up." I thought hard and than made a decision.

I got quiet close to Rank 22, After this I jumped to next floor, And same as floor 20 I encounterd Flame Apes, It was proving little difficult for me to kill them when the where coming in two to three groups, because I was wasting my much of a time on dodging their attack rather than getting time to counter attack and kill them but still I wasn't facing any damage, it just was taking much more time to finish them off.
