Chapter 22 - Adamantine Staff(22)

In a swift motion, I retrieve the job change key from my pocket, deftly turning it mid-air. A mysterious door materializes before me, swinging open.

"See ya when I'm done," I declare, waving farewell before stepping through the gate. The entrance fades to transparency, concealing me from their view.

A sudden threat disrupts my departure as an arrow narrowly misses where my head was moments ago. I glance up, discovering a skeletal figure armed with a bow and arrow—its bony fingers gripping the weapon.

Reacting swiftly, I dash towards the skeletal foe, delivering a powerful kick that decapitates it, obliterating its skull with a single blow.

\[You killed a skeleton\]

\[You gain 1000 exp\]

\[You gain 1000 gold\]

\[You took 200 damage\]

Despite my victory, a grimace crosses my face as an arrow embeds itself in my skin. Gritting my teeth, I inspect the wound, the pain a stark reminder of the dangers that lie ahead.

I observed it.

I surged towards my adversaries, engaging in fierce combat. The battlefield teemed with numerous skeletons; our forces comprised mainly warriors, interspersed with archers. Unconstrained by mortality, the archers in the background indiscriminately fired, indifferent to hitting their own kind.

In a nimble move, I leaped backward, narrowly evading a fiery projectile that streaked past my head. Amidst the skeletal horde, a figure clad in a robe emerged, an ominous presence on the battlefield.

"Come on, really, mages?" I exclaimed to no one in particular.

Once again, I leaped backward, narrowly avoiding a barrage of twenty relentless fireballs. Assessing the situation, I reassured myself, "I'm fine, as long as there aren't any necromancers spawning minions endlessly."

As if on cue, my gaze fixed on a cluster of mages in the distance, conjuring what appeared to be more soldiers. "Who thought it was a great idea to put so many monsters inside this cramped dungeon?" I muttered, sidestepping another attack from an agile skeleton.

[Skill gravity control has been activated]

A sudden surge of power emanated from me, intensifying gravity for every undead within a 60-meter radius. The effect was cataclysmic, causing those within the immediate range to perish instantly under the oppressive force.

Further beyond the 60-meter mark, the altered gravity exerted a less lethal but still ominous influence. Those unfortunate enough to remain within its reach faced a perilous challenge, as the gravity shift threatened to become fatal if endured for an extended period.

The impact of my gravitational manipulation diminished with distance, the force weakening the farther it reached. However, my concentration on this power was abruptly interrupted as I found myself under attack from an assailant who had approached from behind.

[Name: Skeleton assassin]

[Species: Undead]

[Job: assassin]

[Hp: 300]

Swiftly, I ducked as the assailant's coated weapon narrowly missed me by mere centimeters. Before I could retaliate with a kick, he vanished into the shadows. Fortunately, my heightened sensing stats, despite being my lowest rated, allowed me to perceive his presence even in the concealment of darkness.

Time skip 5 hour

"Hufff, Hufff"I was literally dry of any sort of energy at all after serving 5 hours of just getting bombarded by fucking skeletons.

"Fucking assassin and ranger, they have everything, "I thought to myself as I hid behind a pillar to hide as the skeleton was looking for me.

They have a skeleton of everything for Christ's sake and so I needed to be careful before hunting them. I opened my status window and checked my stats.

"This may be a bad decision but I truly do not feel like using my point, I want to see what class I get first before I truly start to invest, "I said to myself before I just sighed and instead used one of the many status recoveries that I had in my inventory.

My wounds disappeared as my health mana recovered to full and my stamina was back to its full self.

I jump out of the way as a fire missile completely destroys the spot that I was sitting on.

I looked at the image that launched and without it even having any time to great his skull was crushed as an immense amount of gravitational push was applied to it.

[You killed a skeleton]

[You gain 1000 exp]

[You gain 1000gold]

I breathed in deeply as I looked at all of the skeletons there and a fire started burning in my eyes.

I would kill each and every single one of them and finish this dungeon, I opened the shop and bought one Adamatime bow staff.

[You lost 75000 gold]

[You brought an adamantine staff]

I equipped the staff as it appeared in my hands before I started to crush the heads of those skeletons.

I needed to deal a lot of blunt damage and as slashing damage is really not going to do a lot of damage to them.

"Maki could probably use this a lot better than me," I said as I started to crush their heads with my staff.

[You killed a skeleton]X10

[You gain 1000 gold]X10

"This stuff seems good so far," I said as I kept smashing zombies' skeletons heads.

"Extend" I yelled out as my staff extracted and that made me smile as this weapon was like the power poll from Dragon Ball or the Adamatime staff that Hiruzen used in Naruto.

"Extend," I said as the bow staff got very big, and with a huge smile on my face I smashed it down on the hundreds of skeletons coming toward me.

"Hell yes," I said smiling as I saw the crushed bones of the skeletons, all of them were headshots, the adamantine staff was truly magnificent.

"I need to think of a good joke to make when I give her this" I said with a thoughtful expression, I however did not really realize that Gojo's personality was rubbing off of me.

Moving forward, I gazed at the crushed bones beneath my feet until my attention was captivated by an unexpectedly ornate door. The intricate decorations and embedded symbols bestowed an artistic quality upon it, a testament to the craftsmanship of an unknown creator. The door stood as a masterpiece, a fusion of aesthetics and status indicators that hinted at something remarkable beyond.

Only a master could do this.
