Chapter 3 - Chapter 3: Dungeon

Xeos woke up feeling something slightly heavy on his chest. He looked up and saw Hestia was sleeping on top on him. He couldn't help but smile at the sight. Though he had to stop his little brother from getting bigger due to her giant soft breasts on his chest. He ignored the feeling to the best of his abilities and gently carried her and placed her back on the couch with a blanket. He smiled and put on his gear and headed out. As soon as he grabbed his sword he heard an excited female voice in his head saying "hello master~~~ how are you doing". He freaked out for a split second before remembering that his sword was now sentient. He looked towards his sword and run it gently and said "Good morning, do you have a name".

He could feel the excitement radiating from it and heard her say "Yes master, my name is sakuria (pronounced Sac-Ker-I) nice to meet you". Xeos nodded his head and went out towards the dungeon to wait to see if his friend shows up since they didn't really planned to meet. After arriving, he waited an hour and like he suspected, he didn't see him. He decided to head into the dungeon and get started.

In a few minutes he entered the first floor and noticed a few adventurers around and decided to find a more secluded spot. After walking a few minutes he encountered a few goblins which he made quick work of. He noticed that they were slightly more faster and stronger than surface monsters which makes sense but also they were less tricky to deal with. He continued this trend for an hour before heading down to the second floor where there were even more goblins along with kobolds. Again it wasn't much of a challenge for him to clear this floor either. He continued this pace till the 7th floor, where he encountered his first slight challenge. The killer ants not due to their strength per say but due to their numbers. For some reason they were grouped up.

He killed them despite being surrounded thanks to his advanced senses working in play. He slices their heads off without much resistance. He spun around and continued Killing. After an hour of non stop fighting, he finally finished off the ants. He noticed a weird bag that was releasing pheromones that was attracting the ants. He shot a void ball at it and destroyed it instantly. If it was anybody else they might not have survived.

He killed 278 killer ants. His arms were tired and he was exhausted. He decided to head back to the surface to recover for a bit and head back in. After 3 hours, Xeos could be found on the 10th floor having a slightly harder time fighting the orcs. They were stronger and more resistant than the other monsters. He ducked under the orcs swing and cut off the over extended arm and jumped up and cut if the orcs head. He breathing slightly heavily and knew that this was his limit for now. He could go further but then he'll start to sustain injuries and he doesn't have any potions on him since he forgot to get some. He decided to stay on the 10th floor a little bit longer to get used to the fog and fighting in it.

A couple hours later we find Xeos on the surface completely exhausted but had a small smile on his face. He went towards the guild to cash in his stones. He walked up to Rose and greeted her. A couple minutes later her received 176,890 valis. Setting a record for the most money brought back by a level 1 Adventurer. Xeos didn't care about the looks as he secretly put his money into his storage and proceeded home to see his goddess to update his Falna.

As he arrived home, he saw Hestia was sitting on a bench waiting for him. As soon as she saw him, she ran to him and hugged him and welcomed him home. Xeos smiled at her and told her how his day went. She was shocked by what floor he went to and the money he got. She was happy he was safe at least.

"Hey Hestia can you update my Falna for me." Hestia got excited and agreed. She saw him last down and sat on his back like last time and drop a drip of blood into his bare back. She was surprised about the stats but got over it quickly since everything about Xeos is abnormal.

Hestia handed him his sheet and Xeos was slightly happy yet disappointed that he didn't get to far. Though a 1000 stat increase isn't anything to scoff at either so he'll take what he can get. He took Hestia out to eat again and just like last time the two had a wonderful time. They went back to the church and got ready for bed. They talked to each other before falling asleep together in the bed.

The next day he found his friend Afton walking towards the dungeon. He ran towards him and asked if he was going in solo. Afton said "Yes" and Xeos asked if he want to team up and he agreed. They headed towards the dungeon and in a hour had reach the 10th floor pretty quickly. They started to fight orcs together instead of individually to better their odds. After a while they decided to head to the next floor and then the next now they are on the 12 floor where they encountered their first true challenge. An infant dragon.

Afton raised his spear and ran towards the dragon carefully. Xeos activated his Sharingan for the first time today and also ran in. The infant dragon breathed a wave of flames at Xeos but he saw this coming clearly and slowly. He dodged the attack and sliced towards the dragons chest but was only able to draw a little blood. An infant dragon is considered a lvl 2 monster so it makes sense it will be harder to cut with using his void magic. Though he tried not to rely on it too much because it'll make everything easy to a certain extent.

Afton using the moment stabbed towards the dragons eye and gouged it out. He went for a second swing when he was nailed into a wall by the dragons tail. "AFTON" Xeos yelled and ran over to his friend to help him up. Afton got up but had a little blood coming out of his mouth and his armor was badly dented taking most of the damage. Xeos seeing his only friend in such a state stirred his hatred towards killing the dragon and coated his sword in void. "Master, I can understand your anger but please calm down and think straight, don't let the hatred consume you" sakuria said.

Xeos took a few breathes then rushed towards the dragon successfully dosing it's attack and cutting its arm off and stabbed his sword into its chest and carved an arc into it before jumping back. Afton got into it once again and managed to stabbed the other eye. While the dragon was blinded it breathed fire in every direction. Xeos using the Sharingan, directed a path through the flames and using all his strength, decapitated the dragon and turning into wisps of smoke leaving behind a stone and several fangs.

The two friends fist bumped and decided to take a break while the other watches out for anything. After a while of relaxing they decided to head in deeper but carefully. Eventually they entered the 13th floor and encountered several crystal mantises. They struggled for a while but managed to overcome them. They decided to head back and and cash in their stones. They ended up making 120,795 valis. They decided to continue to team up and earn even more money. The two split ways and went home for the night to relax and recover. Hestia welcomed him home and they discussed each other's day and went to bed. Xeos will update his status later on. Right now he just wants to sleep.
